RevifaIized Lions Seek
Second Win in Row
Over Baltimore

A revitalized band of Lions, aim
ing for second win over the Clip
pers in Baltimore tonight, is giving
the big share of the credit for last
nights 80 victory over the same
team to the Districts original

1t was Frank Mailley, big defense
man who played on Washington s
first organized hockey team in River
side Stadium, and Nelson (Freckles)
Little, a goalie borrowed from New
Haven. who whipped the Clippers
on Uline ice.
The three goals scored by Harold
Hursley, Vic Chad and Dave Living
ston during the final 10 minutes OF
the last period actually made the
margin Of victory, but behind those
headliners was the defense work ol
Mailley. who treated the fans to big
league ice work, and Goalie Little
who made 36 stops against a fast
firing Clipper forward wall. The
work of the pair held Baltimore
scoreless In the second period and
permitted but one goal in the first
stanza and another early in the
finale.
Little was on his way back to New

Risky business, this football fore
casting, especially for tomorrow
when the Turkey Day scholastic card
is loaded with two interhigh cham
Ipionship games and a trio of ira
.ditional rivalries in which anything
can happen, but here goes with the

The batting average now is .672
(43 correct, 81 bad guesses) despite
another Bronx cheer from the Will
son gridders, who knocked of Ana
costa last week after we had picked
the Indians to win.
Tech VS.. Coolidge at Central Sta
dium-Tech will be shooting to
maintain its second place spot in
the interhigh standings while Cool
idge will attempt to move up from
third. With title playoff berth in
the balance, it shapes up as whale
of a battle, but on the basis OF
comparative showings against East
'ern, Tech rates an edge. The RAM
blers barely managed to beat Tech
20-19, but slapped down Coolidge
300. Choice-Tech.

in two years of interhigh play, has
run up 141 points in winning six
series tits this season. Anacostia
a heavy favorite to get into the title
game prior to its defeat by Central

and has scored but 50 points this
