Eight Leading Quints
In Metro Area Will
Contest al Tech
BY GEORGE HUBER.

The 18th annual Evening Star
metropolitan interscholastic invita-
ton basket ball tournament, big
feature of the high school court
season here, will be held during
the week beginning Monday, Feb
ruary 81, with Tech gym. as usual,
the scene Of all games.
The tourney long has been estab-
lshed as one Of the high spots Of
the winter sports season here,
bringing together as it does the
eight best high school quints from
Washington and nearby sections of
Maryland and Virginia. Places in
the list Of eight teams invited to
participate in the big event eagerly
are sought by all schoolboy quints
around here and the Tournament
Committee will be busy for the next
two weeks culling records Of more
than 20 high school quints to de-
termine which will receive invita-
tions.
Dates Suited to Students.
Dates for the tourney are Mon
day, February 81; Wednesday, Feb
ruary %, and Friday and Saturday,
February Is and rs. Two first
round games will be held on Mon
day and Wednesday nights, the two
semifinal tilts on Friday night and
the championship final on Saturday.
This arrangement particularly is
fortunate in af1ording a minimum
Of interference with school work
and thus likely will bring out big
crowds to all games. As Tuesday,
February %, is holiday there will
be school only on one day after
tournament nights and attendance
at games will not cause students
to neglect their studies.
Not only will teams in the tourna-
ment have q chance to win the
metropolitan championship but they
also will benefit financially, another
reason for the events popularity.
Tickets for the tourney are to be
sold at all participating schools and
also at all District public high
schools, with these schools retaining
proceeds from their sales. This in
the past has run as much as $4O0
at some schools, no mean sum for
usually slim athletic treasures. Ex-
penses are paid from gate receipts.
Gonzaga, G. w. Strong.
Already assured of places in the
tournament are the winner of the
District public high school cham
pionship and winner of the round
robin series. In the event that the
winner also takes the
championship playof the champion
ship runnerup also will be chosen.
This Is a new method of selecting
District public high representatives.
In the past the winner and runner
up in the championship playon were
invited, but it was decided to adopt
the new method after Roosevelt
won the round-robin series for the
last two years yet failed to reach
the final Of the title playof In
the public high race.
Among the other good teams that
appear in line for invitations if they
maintain their present excellent
PAGES are Gonzaga, leader in the
Catholic School League. and George
Washington, leader in the Northern
Virginia Glass A Conference.
Tech won the metropolitan cham
pionship in last years Star tourna-
ment, but the Maroons have no as
surance OF even getting into this
years event. They currently are tied
for third place in the high school
series and either must win the
series or the cham
pionship to earn a chance to defend
their metropolitan crown.
