ent is second only to Baker of Lam
don as the most consistent basket
ball scorer hereabout. His average
on the court is close to IL points a
game. Although playing little tennis
he entered a tournament last year
and won the cup. He also is capable
on the wrestling mat.
Baker, whose brother Bill played
football for Landon several years
ago, is the tallest boy of the quartet
and uses his s feet inches to good
advantage in football, where he
plays end; basket ball, in which he
has averaged 1914 points a game
this winter, and baseball. where he
plays first base. Although he at
tended the high school at Hunting
ton, w. Va, his home town, he par
ticipated little in sports, preferring
at that time to play the drum in
the school orchestra. Ef
When he reported to Coach Bob
MacCartee at Landon last fab,
Baker was one of the greenest MEM
bers Of the squad and to quote
Coach MacCartee. ANY one could
run around the end he was trying
to hold down." Using a large pair
of hands effectively, Paul quickly
caught on and proved fine pass
catcher as well as a sure and hard
tackler. He also learned the knack
of being in the right spot at the
right time. Baker is above average
In boxing, swimming, table tennis,
fencing and softball.
Barrett Ace Punter.
In football last fall Barrett estab-
lished himself as just about the best
punter In town, not excepting the
collegians. He averaged about 60
yards a boot and sent one out of
bounds on the 2-yard line. It had
scared Is yards-without benefit of
wind. An easy-going 6-footer, he is
best when the going is tough. In
game last fall he intercepted q
pass and ran 98 yards for a pinch
touchdown. He has pulled several
basket ball games out of the fire
with last-minute goals and although
performing only one season at
Georgetown Prep so far, he is con-
sidered the best ever to play the
game there. While engaging in IL
games @he has totaled some IN
points. His coach. Tommy Keat.

basketer he has seen this year. He

-Four District and nearby prep
school students, whose general ap-
pearance would indicate fondness
for libraries and a hatred for alarm
clocks, have been playing havoc
with opposing athletic teams during
the last several months, but except
for q minor headline here and there
have received little notice.
They're worth more than passing
attention, however, because It's
likely that In the next few years
each will be blazing his way to col
legiate glory.

mand Newmyer of Friends, Paul
Baker of Landon and Sport Bar
rett Of Georgetown Prep already
have cast q shadow before them,
both in the classroom and on the
field Of battle. sf EsN
Bill Shows Determination.
When Harmon, with little sports
experience before he entered st.
Albans two years ago, reported to
Bob Middleton, grid coach and -ath-
letic director, he neither was big
nor fast and there was some ques-
ton just where to place him, If at
all.
Bill changed that quickly with
display Of determination, and after
working his way into a regular line
mans job he began to sparkle on
both offense and defense. He soon
made a habit of being in almost
every play and broke up many
we'll planned aerial attack. Last fall
he captained the team.
Bill also has been the mainstay
Of the schools basket ball and base
ball teams. He is among the leading
court scorers in this sector and has
broken up many q baseball game
with his power at the plate. During
the summer he plays a fair game
of golf. Now S feet 8 inches tall
and weighing 168 pounds, this is his
last year at st. Adams.
Newmyer, the only Washington
boy of the group, also is the Nghtest
and in some ways the most success
full. Although 135-pounder he has
won rank as one Of Friends bright
est stars, If not the most brilliant.
A student at the Wisconsin avenue
school for the last six years, he has
been voted the most valuable player
In football, basket ball and baseball
for the last three years. He also
is the present captain of those
teams. He can't recall how many
letters he's won at Friends but owns
q chain made of little gold footballs,
baseballs and basket balls emblem
attic Of his consistent success.
Wannan Deals High Praise.
According to Charles Pop" Wan
nan, who has been the Friends ath-
letic director for 18 years, Armand
is one of the finest and most versa
