Bulls School of Silver Spring,
stepchild of Washington Schoolboy
sports, will close its very good foot
ball season on Saturday when Coach
AL GroSsman takes his team to An
napolis for the annual game against
Navy plebes. The fact that Bulls
appears in for a good licking de-
tracts nothing from its record this
year.
Bulls, a Navy prep school, is in an
odd situation as far as local sports
60 and has been unable to fit into
the picture, much as it wants to.
AS Grossman puts it. I'VE seem to-
be neither fish nor flesh" Trouble
is that Bulls draws its students
from all over the country and gen.
orally Is not regarded as a local
school.
Most OF its games are against the
stronger military schools in Pennsyl-
vania or Virginia. Even in poor sea-
sons, which come frequently enough,
1t can't schedule Washington teams
because it might come up with a
powerhouse the next year, such as
happened to some extent this time -.
Last year Bulls didn't even have a
team and the year before it won
only two or seven games and tied
one.
District Schedule Planned.
AS usual this year, the private
school championship was decided
among st. Albans,' Landon and
Georgetown Prep. Bulls, although

cause 1t plays in a tougher league
Last winter Bulls had a good basket
ball team, but wasn't invited to the
metropolitan schoolboy champion
ship tournament. 1t would have had
an excellent chance of winning that
tournament title. but Bulls entry
might have been unfair to the
purely local teams.
But Bulls is anxious to fit some
where into the Washington sports
picture. 1t is getting up a basket
ball schedule against teams here
again and Grossman is making re-
newed efforts for an all-Washington
football schedule for next year. I'VE

NEW YORK, Nov. l7.-This being

bel, the golf pro. comes up with a
tip today that it might be a good
idea to ask for three or four new

Ross is the SHOEMAKER who once

Indian maharajah and who now is

top teaching pros in the game. He

only just won't be any new balls left
next year, but we're even going to
have to recover recovered balls and
use them if the situation keeps up.
Golf pros already are playing
tournaments with recovered balls
and will keep right on doing it.
Why. Bobby Cruickshank won the
North South Open with a recovered
ball last winter.
You know, some pros are going
along on the rosy dream that there's
going to be a synthetic or a plastic
ball. Well, they're going to wake up
soon and find out that manufac-
turers have given up any such idea.
