Builds for Future
BY GEORGE HUBER.

A family rivalry will crop up on
the basket ball courts this season
during several games for the un-
official Catholic prep school title,
already expected to be hotly con-
tested series, when two brothers find
themselves on opposing teams.
Jim Mulvihill, whose defensive
work last season was an important
factor in st. Johns march to the
city championship. will have his
brother Bob, member of the Con-
zaga team, opposing him in race
for family honors. Jim, 16 years old,
is senior at St. Johns, while Bob,
IA, is a sophomore at Gonzaga.
Jim already has two seasons of
basket ball experience, but for Bob
this will be the first year of regular
play. Both are guards, so it is likely
they never will be assigned directly
to each other, unless Gene Auguster-
fer or Orrel Mitchell. coaches at st.
Johns and Gonzaga. respectively,
make shift or two in the lineups
Gonzaga, incidentally, has 18
games scheduled this year, one of its
longest programs in recent seasons,
and for the first time will carry
over into March. 1t still is angling
for one or two other games, among
them one with Loyola of Baltimore.
Get Letters Second Time.
Anacostia's football players will
receive their school letters tomorrow,
when they return to school from the
holidays. They got them once last
month at banquet, but Coach Rol-
land Lund took them back because
they were the wrong shade of red.
The schools official colors are scar
let red and royal blue, while the
letters received were cherry red.
Irving Falk, manager. was the only
one permitted to keep the letter
originally given out. His was blue
and didn't need exchanging.
Several Indian gridiron warriors
who carried the mail during football
season also carried the mail during
Christmas vacation Robert fFlashO
Gordon and Francis Herbert were
among several that had Jobs with
the Post Office.
Now that Anacostia is progressing
in the sports field. it is going to get
a trophy case in which to put sew
eral items now deposited in the bows
gym office. Among these are the
football used in the first game the
Indians played when they beat
woodward, 5l-0 Another football
was presented them last month at
the annual banquet by Coach Rusty
Thompson of Tech. 1t was the same
used when the Indians sprang the
upset of the year and defeated the
Manual Trainers, 1877. They also
have the baseball used when it
forced Easterns scholastic cham
plons to IA innings before losing. Sd.
last year.
WI. Builds on Future.
Buck Richardson at Washington-
Lee High is building his quint with
an eye to next year and the next.
He hardly can expect much this
season, he says, as all he has left
from last year are two substitutes.
Robert Howell, center, and Ted
Copland. forward. So far the Little
Generals have played two games
and lost both. Jefferson and Fred
erlcksburg being the victors.
One good thing about his team,
Richardson says. is that the play
ers mostly are 9Th and 10th grade
boys. That means they will be
playing for the next two and three
years.
He ran them through practice
sessions during the holidays prep
ping for two games this week.
Charles Town (W. Va) High visits
Arlington on Wednesday and Fri
day the Little Generals go to Mount
Rainier High. Among the boys who
looked good during the scrimmages
and who probably will be given reg
ular starting berths are Harry Jones
and Paul Gaumnetz. Among the
others rounding into shape are Earl
Harvest, John CARRIER and James
PaWley.
Morris (Moe) Tanenbaum, a sub
stltute on Techs quint last year,
didn't come out for early practice
thls season because he was sick. He
showed up for three sessions during
the holiday practice week, however,
and did so we'll that Coach Bruce
kessler took him with the team
when it left this morning to play
South River On. j. High tonight.
