BY GEORGE HUBER.

The days of inequality in sports
competition among District public
high schools seem to be gone. Last
year two comparative newcomers to
the scene, Wilson and Anacostia,
made their power felt, Wilson by
taking the basket ball title and Ana
costa by winning the East Division
football crown. Everybody seems to
have chance, and the current foot
ball series serves as a good example.
Eight games have been played
there are nine to go before the play
off-and in only two has there been
difference of as many as two
touchdoWns in the score. One
touchdown was the margin in other
instances. Even Coolidge, baby of
the series this year, beaten three
times, has yielded in each instance
by only single touchdown.
Coaching Talent Is Spread.
Several factors enter into this.
Coaching talent has been spread
around. There's new emphasis on
physical conditioning and health
education. And the 18-year-old age
limit also serves to balance competi-
ton.
Yesterdays two games as usual
were close. Tech defeated Ana
costa, 80, at Tech to take first
place in the East Division race, while
Eastern remained in the title picture
by nosing out Coolidge, 60, at
Eastern.
Techs only touchdown yesterday
was gift when the Indians, trail
ing by 20 with only a minute to
go. elected to try a fourth-down pass
inside their own 10 rather than kick.
The pass failed and the Maroons
took over. A penalty put them one
yard from score. and Sonny Nor
risette plunged through. The two
points came on safety in the Sec
ond period with Monk Bauers,
Techs star kicking -plunging little
quarterback, setting up the play. He
punted outside on Anacostia's 5-yard
line. Omar Sydnor tried to return
punt, but it was blocked by several
Tech linemen, mainly by George
Paul, and rolled out of the end zone
for an automatic safety.
Stop Indians Passing Game.
Several pass interruptions halted
Anacostia drives. The Indians ap-
peared on the move in the second
period and with two first downs ad-
vanced from their own 20 past mid
field before John Harvill intercepted
a heave from Frank Burback. An
other march reached Techs IS be-
fore a tumble interfered. Still an
other Anacostia chance missed when
Grant Davidson and Burback car
ried to Techs 80 before being
halted. Elliott Days attempted field

BALTIMORE, Oct. 24.-Mary-
lands football team was expecting
to face one of the softer touches on
its schedule here today when it
stacked up against Western Mary
land, which was seeking its first
victory over the Old Liners since
1885.
In an effort to improve Maryland's
defense, which collapsed last week
in a 29-0 beating by VM1, Coach
Clark Shaughnessy has shifted
Luther Conrad, regular right tackle,
to George Jarmoska's guard spot.
Paul Flick, regular center, will move
to tackle on defense and Bill Byrd
will handle the defensive center job
Western Maryland was basing its
hopes of an upset on the arm of
Nanny Kaplan, who has completed
Is of 81 passes, with the Old Liners
again relying on the normally ac-
curate aerials of Tommy Mont, also
owner of an exceptional passing
record.
The Green Terrors displayed con-
siderable improvement in the last
start, beating Mount ST. Mary's, 80,
on Kaplan's field goal. The Terrors
restricted the Mounts to % yards.
The two top scorers of the State,
Jack Wright of Maryland and Art
OKeefe of Western Maryland,
were to tangle in the battle.

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-Today's
jammed football program not only
lists numerous contests in which
unbeaten teams jeopardize their rec
ords but also pits outstanding play
e1s against each other in individual
duels for the headlines.
There's the meeting of Notre

contest alone would lure thousands
to the stadium but in addition the
spectators will see Angelo Berteln,
ace Irish passer, tangle with Alex

Michigan and Minnesota tangle

groans and Bill Daley the cheers

That famed UCLA line, with Capt.

west where Texas has a scatback in
Jackie Fields and Rice a smooth

on the slashing runs of Alan Cam

At Philadelphia it will be the line

Skins Rely on Malone
To Bolster Their
Aerial Attack
Return Of Vet Receiver
Is No Compliment to
Clubs End Detuii

Charley Malone's return to the
Redskins isn't much of compliment
to the Tribe wingmen, rejecting as
it does Ray Flaherty's lack of conf
dence in his ends as pass catchers.
1t also seems to indicate that the
Redskins will rely more and more on
Sammy Baugh's pitching to carry
them to the Eastern title and into
the league championship playof
against the Bears
Malone is 80 years old. according
to the records, nine years out of
school and by all standards of pro
football one of the oldtimers of
the game. This will be his eighth
season with the Skins. He quit two
years ago to enter business.
Malone to Be Specialist.
He has been limiting at come
back for some time, but Flaherty
evidently, was the only one who
took him seriously. His workouts
with the team were regarded as mere
conditioning exercises which some
of the old gaf1ers of the game are
wont to indulge in now and then.
With the Redskins-and begin
ming tomorrow at Pittsburgh
Malone will be a specialist, a chief
specialist as they would say in the
Navy. He'll be used strictly for
snagging passes from Baugh and
for trying to add a note of deception
to the attack. Flaherty, for ex-
ample, might send him in when
the situation would seem ripe for
a pass and try to sneak running
play around the other side of the
line. But if Malone is in the game
to grab a pass he'll grab it if it's
anywhere within reach.
The record bears evidence that
the Tribe needs a good receiver at
the fanks. The only Washington
touchdown scored this season by an
end on a pass from Baugh was
that by Johnny Kovatch against
Brooklyn last Sunday.
Helped Skins Get Title.
In signing Malone the club re-
gains half the famous combination
that supplied much of the power
in Washington's drive to the world
championship in 1887 The other
half was Wayne Miner, regular left
end, since signed by Notre Dame
as assistant coach.
Both were slowing down at rapid
clip when they quit the gridiron, but
until the last they were as sure
handed as a big league baseball
player under pop fly when Baugh's s
