Eastern S basketers
Doing All Right With
Only One Veteran
Mills and Bottiste
Strong Newcomers;
Bethesda Beaten

Eastern's court team Is being
built this year with only one regu-
lar from the squad which last sea-
son walked away with the scholastic
championship, yet Coach Johnny
Mcbride is not having too diffi-
cult a time filling some of the holes
left by graduations.
In Clint Quantities center posi-
ton he has placed Lenny (Stretch)
Mills. Two seasons ago Mills play
ed with Tech. He Is the tallest
boy among the high school basket
ers and an accurate shot both from
the field and the foul line. When
with Tech he led that team in per-
centage Of 1-pointers completed.
Beat Bethesda Quint.
At guard Mcbride has Francis
(Bat Battiste, last year an out
standing member of st. Johns Star
tournament champions. With these
two additions and Howard Soup
Hancock of last years White Tide
alternating at scoring last night,
Eastern swept over Bethesda Chevy
Chase, 1928, in a game opening the
new Lincoln Park gym.
1t was Eastern's first win after a
bad start against George Washing
ton High, while for Bethesda it was
the third defeat at the hands of
local public schools.
Somewhat hungry for points after
being held to IL last week, the
Lincoln Parkers often were shooting
when they probably should have
been passing. A sufficient number
OF tosses to give them the edge
all the way went through the hoop,
and those that didn't generally were
gathered in by the lanky Mills.
Bethesda Shows Improvement.
Bethesda showed improvement
over its team play in the Western
and Tech games, and as soon as it
finds the range promises to be a
high-scoring outfit. Many of its
shots last night barely missed. After
January l two regulars will rejoin
the squad. Pete Smith, an accurately
shooting forward, is out with an
injured ankle. and Francis Hughes
is visiting in Florida for the holidays.
