6. W. High Iron Men
Having Rough Time
With Stiff Schedule

Basketball Coach Rasty Doran
Of George Washington High School
is using iron men" to play the
toughest schedule of any school,
boy team in the area. The Presi-
dents are playing only Virginia
Group / schools or top District
teams and are having troubles.
Six or seven boys have done
most of the playing and in five
games only five have been used.
Lack of squad depth is the reason
and things are a bit different from
last year when the Presidents ran
up a 26-game winning streak.
During that span they annexed
the Metropolitan Washington title
In The Star tournament and lost
only in the final of the State
championship tourney.
The tough schedule and mex
perienced players may be catching
up with G. w. Right now the
Presidents have three-game los
ing string and one more such loss
will drop them to the 500 mark.
There's little relief in sight be-
cause Central, defending cham
pion in the Washington public
high series, is today's opposition
and such toughies as Lane, Wilson
and Westinghouse are in the
immediate future.
Eager to Whip G. w.
Today, for instance. Central
would like nothing better than a
victory over the Presidents who
beat them in the final of last
years Star tournament. Right
now George Washington's Won
lost record is 7-6.
The 6-foot-4 Erwin Jones is the
teams leading scorer. The other
StalWarts are Sonny Spittle and
Smiley Moore, small guards, and
Don Hanback,, Bugs Oliver and
Bob Kensler.
District public highs got fair
break in competition against stiff
outside foes yesterday. Biggest
upset was registered by Coolidge
in beating Patterson Park of
Baltimore, team that for two
years has cleaned up against
Washington schools, 60-43. 1t was
only the second loss this season
for Patterson and the first time
Coolidge has beaten that team in
f1ve attempts. Don Eslin and Jim
Gradijan were the big guns for
the Colts with Is and IA points.
Roosevelt lost when St. Johns
put on a hefty last-period rally
for 41-29 triumph behind 81
point scoring from Bobby McLin-
don. Until the last period it was
close with st. Johns leading 16-
13 at halftime and 1922 going
into the final.
Bladensburg Scores Upset.
In other games involving Dis
trlct public highs, Eastern used
IA players to beat Bethesda Chevy
Chase. 56-37: Tech trimmed
Dewitt, 71-36; Anacostia won over
Maryland Park, 49-42; Bell topped
Lackey. 1929. and Western bowed
to Montgomery Blair, 55-40.
An upset occurred in the
Prince Georges County League
when Bladensburg gave Hyatts-
vile its first loop defeat, 48-41.
in overtime. The Blades led most
of the way until the Hornets
pulled into a 39-39 deadlock at
the end of regulation time. In
the extra session Don and Calvin
Green and George Clayton COM
bined for 9 points.
In other Maryland games,
Greenbelt beat Mount Rainier,
49-37; Oxon Hill nosed out Laurel,
41-40; Gwynn Park topped Sur
rattsville, 35-29, and Annapolis
defeated Gaithersburg, 47-35.
In Virginia, Falls Church con-
tinued its winning string with a
1882 triumph over Osborne. Pri-
vate school competition saw De
Matha trim st. Mary's, 44-28;
Landon edge Honeywell, 36-35,
and Priory top Georgetown Prep,
55-41.
