AZ Schools Entered

Baltimore City College, listed
down among the also rams in 1941,
appears as a possible favorite this
year for the Maryland Interscholas-
tics on Saturday, one of the features
of the field day at College Park and
the first of the seasons big high
school track meets in this section.
Forty-two schools, same number
as last year, are entered for the
open interScholastic and county
events, and in meet of that size
it doesn't take many firsts to win.
Tech took the title in 1941 with
five firsts, four of them by the un-
matched Eddie Barham, but that
was unusual.
Tech this season has no one who
quite can match Barham's per-
formances and while it may be near
the top it hardly figures as winner
Central probably is the strongest
locally, with Washington-Lee also
due for some consideration.
Baltim0reans Have Aces.
City College may have at least
two firsts locked up, the 880-yard
run, in which Russell has done
2:O49, and the high jump with
Anders, who did feet l inch in
a triangular meet two weeks ago.
1t has several other good athletes
too. who even if they don't win
may get points for second or third.
Much of Techs bid for repeat
win will rest on Bob Landmark.
He is a favorite for the pole vault
and should do over IL feet. He has
done 15.9 In the high hurdles, which
is much better than last years win
ming time, and he also is hitting
q feet in the broad jump. There
will be plenty of competition for
him. however, especially in the
hurdles and the broad Jump. Cox
of Baltimore Poly, another good
team. has done 81 feet and better
in the broad jump. and Eastern
will have its two hurdlers, Floyd
Brookens and Frank Nelson, COM
peting.
Poly also is strong in the 100-yard
dash with Schnobb as its entry.
He has done 10 fat this season, and
a real race is in prospect when he
goes against Courtney Renshaw OF
George Washington. Alexandra,
who also is capable of a fiat effort.
Central Team Is Threat.
Central has a chance not only for
several firsts but for good num-
Der of second and third place points.
Jim Kurz, who finished third in
the shot last year, may win this
time with a toss of 81 or SO feet,
and the schools mile relay team OF
Gene Dunn. Nick Chacos, John
Ward and Bernie Grosbeam is con-
sidered best in the city, although
Roosevelt is contender.
Coach Jan Jankowskie of the Vik-
tngs also has hopes of points from
Ludwig Waldman in the dashes and
Chacos in the 220-yard dash. For
rest Roberts has been doing some
good high jumping, and Jack Sam
perton is entered in the half mile
and George Simon in the mile. Jan
also has good pole vaulter in
Robert High, who although he
hasn't matched Techs Landmark
this season has done II feet inches
in competition and 11-9 in practice.
An infected hand may keep him
out, though.
