Bulls Zone Defense Fails.
Bulls tried a surprise by using a

goals each at one point were ahead.

for its more familiar man for man
defense, but st. Johns still had a

The Johnnies were stopped almost
cold In the second, however, while
Clyde Scott. who played a whale of
a game, tossed in three goals to
lead The Admirals into their 27-l8

Heit Is Telling Asset
Against 81. John S;
Eastern Pressed
BY GEORGE HUBER.

The Evening Stars 18th annual
Metropolitan interscholastic basket
ball championship tournament is
down to the semifinals and the heat
really Is on. The four seeded teams
have survived the first round, al
though one almost was turned in
last night when Washington-Lee
led Eastern until the final minutes,
and with Saturday nights payon IN
sight the pace promises to become
even more torrid, If that is possible,
than 1t has been.
The best high school basket ball
OF the season is looked for in to-
morrow nights semifinal tilts at
Tech gym when George Washing
ton High and Wilson, winners on
Monday night, face In one game
and Eastern and Bulls, last nights
winners, in the other. Eastern
came along at the end to nose out
Washington-Lee, 36-33, while Bulls
took over the lead midway through
the second quarter and kept it
while downing st. Johns, 5000.
Bulls was seeded fourth in this
tournament, but of the style of
play shown last night the Admirals
likely will find themselves In the
role OF favorites. The Silver Spring
school has team of big and hefty
boys who may prove too much for
the others to handle.
Put Champs on MettIe.
Washington-Lee, ranked seventh
in the list of eight tourney quints,
gave Eastern fits last night before
the favored Ramblers were able to
pull from behind In the late going.
Bob Lannon's two last-period goals
and several important foul shots
were the deciding factors in turn
ing back the Generals who had a
5-point lead only three minutes
before the end.
Eastern had 10-7 margin in the
first period, with Lamon setting the
pace with two field goals. Then the
Generals pulled ahead, combining
close guarding with some timely
scoring to earn a 17-15 margin by
intermission. Eastern was limited
to five points in the second quarter
with Cookie Dellinger's pot shot the
only field goal while Billy Earl
scored twice from the floor and
Turkey Thompson and Myron Ger
ber got field goal apiece to aid in
the WI. surge.
Earl continued his hot hand in
the third quarter with three more
field goals Lamon got two more, as
did Mike Pappafotis for Eastern, to
cut wills margin to 26-25 going
into the final frame, but the Gen.
erals once more turned on the juice
to increase their edge. Norm Pum-
phrey tossed in two for WI. to
help it to 5-point margin, with
only three minutes to go. There
after the Generals essayed several
wild shots, however, and the still
cool Ramhlers took control of the
game. Foul shots by Alex Vorobey
and Pappafotis and field goal by
Lamon pulled them to within one
point and Lamon tossed In another
