CENTRAL Tech,
BULLIS-DEvITT
TIETS TOP CARD
By GARRETT WATERS

~Fe@-S-O--
Two games of more than usual
interest feature tomorrow's busy
day for schoolboy elevens. They
are the CentraLTech setto at the
Central Stadium at 3:15 p. m,
and the Devitt-Bullis contest at
the American University Field at
the same hour.
The Central-Tech game is the
next to last on the Interhigh
School series schedule. It will
be q battle for second place hon.
ors, since that is all left to the
series, which ended Tuesday in
sofar as the title was concerned
when Eastern defeated Western,
IA to 6.
The Devitt-Bullis skirmiSh Is one
Of long rivalry between the two
schools. 1t originally was sched-
uled for today but was shifted to
the American University Field to-
morrow at the last minute.
SHOULD HAVE MOMENTS
The game should have its mo-
ments. Dewitt will go into action
to avenge last years 13-to.6 de
feat. Bulls, on the other hand,
will strive for its second victory
in row and its third since 1884.
The series started back in 1888.
Dewitt won that game, 33 to 0.
Bulls triumphed in 1884 in a TO
6 thriller, but Dewitt came back IN
1895 to win, 10 to 0. Then came
Bulls victory last year in an In
tereSting 13 to 6 clash.
Devitt'S chances are encourag-
ing tomorrow in that the lineup is
studded with young and ambitious
material. Such well known local
footballers as Sparo Kolius, for
merly of Roosevelt High, and Er-
nest Raulins, Oden Clay and Jack
Crawford, formerly Of Tech, are Oh
the squad. Too, there is Leroy
FoneS, former George washington
High luminary, who is considered
one of the best schoolboy gridders
in this section.
LARGE CROWD DUE
Another of those bulky, noisy
crowds is expected at Central Sta
dunn for the Tech-C Central annual.
Tech will be the favorite to win,
backed, Of course, by its better
record, and the presence Of tai
ented footballers including Jack
and Ivy Belote, Henry Rassier,
Walter Connally and Jimmy Cal
los.
Central's best player is Charlie
Jones, center. The lad has done
about everything to make the Mt.
Pleasanters as formidable as they
have been this season while sup
porting Jones has been Bill Ickes,
| fast backfield ace.

the Redskins from retaining the
laurels they won in 1886, when
they defended Eastern honors
against the Green Bay Packers,
western champions. That the
Redskins are still in the running
for the championship came about
as a result of Detroit humping
the New York Giants, 10, at
the Polo Grounds, Sunday. The
Giant loss left them leading the
Eastern Division with five wins,
two losses and one tie, while the
Injuns are in second place with
five wins, three losses and no ties.
Thus, should the Green Bay Pack
ers defeat the Giants in New
York next Sunday afternoon, and
the Redskins exc out a victory
over the Rams, Washington will
move into first place.

I'm COMPROMISE
With N.C.A.A. FOE
By CHICK KENNY

When the storm clouds rolled
away by means of a compromise
agreement in the quadrennial ses-
sion of the American Olympic AS
sociation in the United States
Chamber of Commerce building
here yesterday afternoon, the pic
ture-taking loving A. A. U. had
gained it's point in its battle with
the National Collegiate Athletic AS
Sociation in regard to the control
ing interest on committees in
charge of the sports the two
bodies are interested.
The final analysis Of the project
and incorporated under Section
VIII of the constitution and by
laws of the American Olympic AS
sociation narrowS down to equal
representative of six members from
the "A. A. U. and six members from
the N. C. A. A, with a 18th mem
ber proposed by the president Of
the American Olympic Association
and carried into the board by a
twothirds vote of the IL commit
teemen.
AS the situation now stands,
Avery Brundage, reelected presi-
dent of the American Olympic
Association and A. A. U. champion,
due to his past performances as
A. A. u. prexy, will fire pro-A,
A. U. nominees into the laps Of the
IL committeeman until one of the
laddies finally comes through.
COLLEGES OUTVOICED
Therefore, it looms as though
the N. C. A. A. will be outvoiced on
the committee by Z to 6 count.
The previous situation that
caused the furor and which threat
ened a bolt of the N. c. A. A. from
the A. o. A. was a 6 to 4 advan-
tage Of the A. A. U. on the COM
mittee. The N. C. A. A. fought for
a 5 to 4 representation on a com
mittee of nine. AS the compromise
now stands it will be 7 to 6 in
favor Of the A. A. u.
The original proposal of a com
promise rendered by the big
hearted A. A. U. to the N. C. A. A.
was a plan submitted by DR.. John
Brown, jr., Y. M. C A. representa-
tive, who attempted to amend
Article VIII to reduce membership
of the N. c. A. A. and the A. A. U
to five representatives each; two
members to be appointed by the
Olympic committee and one mem
Der to be appointed by the presi
dent Of the A. o. A.

Ace Tackles TO Battle Saturday
TerpS to Use
'IrOn-Men'
Tackles
HOYAS ON EDGE
By FRANK BUCK" o'NEILL

~ ASAA4NAA ~~N3
You have to dip back into foot
ball lore Of the braver decades to
find a parallel Of at least one
phase of the impending gridiron
battle between University Of Mary
land and Georgetown's rallying
Hoyas, scheduled for Griffith Sta
dium on Saturday. If football
form is preserved when the Terps
go into action with the Blue and
Grey, the crowd will be thrilled
with d demonstration Of how to
play tackle, with four real men
starting against each other.
The football styles have changed
lot, and the defensive tackle
plays the end and halfback for
the most part; the attacking
tackle concentrating on the de-
fensive guard in most plays. But
time and change cannot stale the
thrill that comes to lovers of foot
ball as they watch tackles fighting
to the ball in what Frank Cava-
naugh used to call a "brutish
charge"

WELL UNDER WAY
Employment Office Has
Workers To Assist In
Projects Desired

Henderson's annual spring cleanup
campaign got under way today, with
many housewives and property own
ers cooperating toward the removal
of trash and rubbish. Greater santa

which yesterday received the impetus
of proclamation by Mayor Irvine B.
Watkins.
w. M. Burwell, manager of the
State employment office here, today
gave cut statement pledging the
cooperation Of his office in furnishing
workers for property owners or others
DESTROYS of carrying out any work

pledged prompt service to all who call,
and said workers would be sent as
quickly as possible after calls are re-
ceived. His telephone number is 8i0-J.
Mr. Burwell said, incidentally, he
could place 25 farm hands right now,
and that there is a steady demand for
construction labor.
Trucks of the city street depart
ment worked today in the first ward
carrying off garbage and trash, and
tomorrow will be in the second ward.
On Thursday they will be assigned
