EASTERN Rates
SLIGHT EDGE IN
SCHOOL SERIES
INTERHIGH STANDINGS
BY PAUL BEACH

Westerns rampaging Red Raid
erS moved into a three-way tie
with Eastern and Roosevelt yester
day afternoon when they trounced
Wilson, 81 to "a, in the last game
of the first half Of the interhigh
series at the Roosevelt gym.
Inasmuch as the ultimate win
ner is rated according to the
teams record over the entire
series, these three deadlocked
uuints start the last half on an
even basis.
Eastern, which has yet to lose
a game by other than the forfeit
route and which holds a decisive
win over Roosevelt'S Rough Riders
and a slight edge over Western
would seem to get the nod as the
favorites as they race down the
home stretch.
WESTERN CHIEF THREAT
BY the token of their utter rout
of the Roosevelt forces, Western
should be the only five to give the
Lincoln Parkers any trouble. They
also forced the Fasteners to ex
tend themselves to the limit 1r
their first-half tilt in order to exc
out win.
In yesterdays contest the Presi
dents were causing Western
rooters no little concern when they
forged into a first-quarter lead
6-5, and proved obstinate in the
second stanza when they pulled up
after trailing, 14-6, to end the
half on the short end OF the score
by only three points.
DELUGE DESCENDS
The deluge descended on the
Heintel men in the third quarter
however, when Cliff Moore's prote
ges showed them under to the tune
of 26-15.
A last-period rally, netting vii
son nine points to their opponents
five, fell short by seven points a.
the game ended.
Bob Custer, with nine points
was high scorer for Western anC
the game, while Holloran, Western
was second best with six points.
Wilson scoring was distributed
among nine players, with Findley
and Dave Maloney leading the liSt
with six points each.

HOPE TO BREAK
LOSING STREAK

NEW YORK, Feb. Knowing
on to West Point early today, the
Georgetown University basketball
team was glad to depart from Man
haitian, and has high hopes OF
swapping its three-game losing
streak by turning back the Army
team late this afternoon.
Losing to Syracuse in the Salt
City Saturday night and then
dropping a 2-point decision to
Fordham in the Rose Hill gym
last night, the travelling Hoys
quint can gain back some of Its
lost prestige by defeating Army
today.
The Cadets have lost but one
game in seven starts this season
and that to Yale last week.
In losing to Fordham last
night, 1886, Georgetown dropped
its second tilt in as many starts
in Gotham. Early in January
the Washington team was de
feated by New York University
in Madison Square Garden in the
last few minutes of play.
Last nights game was settled
by an overtime period, after the
Hoyas had fooled a three-point
lead in the last two minutes 81
play. The regulation battle endec
at 34-all.
Dutch We'll, Ram guard, was
first to score in the extra frame
but Joe Murphy came back K
knot the count with a spectacular
shot, but Howard WEIGH, Ford
hams star of the evening, broke
through the Hoya defense to snal
a one-hand toss for the winning
two points.
Georgetown led at half-time

The event in which Mrs. Roose-

been in receipt OF numerous
offers to quit the simon pure

Two big offers were received by
