on Eastern, the Interhigh's de-
tending champion. which starts
its campaign against Wilson, but
schoolboy fans might give atten-
ton to a dark-horse candidate
which never has won a baseball
championship, but could do it this
year.
Roosevelt's name is not on the

which later became Roosevelt
as a baseball champion either.
s The Riders can't be ruled a
solid choice when Eastern's overall
power is considered, but in Bill
Smith, Roosevelt perhaps has the
best hurler in the league this
season.
The left-hander has speed to

control. In his first start against
Montgomery Blair Tuesday. Smith

IL. Last year he won all five
games Roosevelt took in the inter-
high, including a 10 extra-in-
| ming win over Wilson, the leagues
runnerup.
Smith may well be the best all
around athlete in the city right
now and he's only junior. Bill
was an all-high halfback choice
on some football teams last fall
and a second-team all-high selec-
ton on every list in the basket
ball season.
In football Smith was a hard

passer. Playing behind a weak
line, he still was able to distin-

Roosevelt meets Anacostia to-
day and more will be known about
it's chances tonight. But Ferazzi
must have strong pitching stafi
for he's thinking of saving Smith
for later action and starting Bill
Thompson today.
The Eastern-GW fracas We'd
nesday created quite tempest in
a teapot. Reports about seyering
of relations, hard feelings and re-
taliation are still the cause OF
grumbling.
Our guess is the whole matter
will blow over. These incidents
have occurred in the past between
other schools and they have
weathered the storm. It must be
remembered that the melee was
no full-scale Donnybrook and only
one fist fight was reported.
Certainly the whole affair is to
be regretted. 1t is unfortunate
the incidents like this one have
to happen-that high school boys
often can't control their tempers.
Without going into the particu-
lars of who is at falkland un-
doubtedly much can be said on
both sides - let us hope cooler
heads will prevail and Eastern
and CIV will continue their ath-
letic competition that has been
completely harmonious in the past.
Some confusion may occur on
the high school scene with two
schools bearing almost identical
names now playing baseball. Per-
haps it's a good idea to get the
record straight right away.
Calvert Hall of Baltimore has
been well known in prep school
athletics for some time and fire.
quently plays teams from this
area. Now Calvert High at Prince
Frederick. Md. only in existence
since 1949, is fielding a strong
baseball team.
Calvert High has won four
straight this year and has three
fine pitchers, righthanders George
Catterton and Charles Hooper and
lefty Earl Walton. Walton has a
two-year record of 10-1, while
Catterton is undefeated in five
starts over the same period. Both
have won one-hitters this season
The school is in the Southern
Maryland Tri-County League
composed of Glass B schools and
is a favorite to take the title.
Coach John W. Long will be
going for the Tooth win of his
coaching career at three different
schools when his team plays
Great Mills today.
Undoubtedly more will be heard
from Calvert High this season
and it's a good idea to clarity
just what and where the school is.
Episcopals tennis team with
four of its starting six back from
last year again is strong this
season.
The Maroon was undefeated on

Beth Israel Notes
Fight Against
Paganism Is
Rabbits Topic

"Chanuka-the Perennial Fight
Against Paganism" will be the
theme of Rabbi A. L. Krohn's SER
mon at Sabbath services Friday
evening of this week at Temple
Beth Israel.
On Dec. 20 the homecoming
Sabbath will be featured by the
"Judas Maccabeus" Oratorio pre-
sented by the cantor and choir.
Theme of the after-service Oneg
Shabbat program will be "Idolatry
and Bribery at Modin: Are We Still
Fighting Them Today?"
On Jan. the pulpit will be oc-
cupied by a guest rabbi, Raphael
H. Levine of Temple DeHirsch,
Seattle, Wash. He is honorary
president of the Western Associa-
tion of Reform Rabbis.
An extended Chanuka program
for the children of the Religious
School was being planned this
week by the Parent-Teachers Or
ganization, under the direction of
Mrs. A. Ramenofsky.
During the festival, which be-
gins next Sunday evening, Dec. %,
each class of the school will cele-
brate Chanuka in the home of one
of the room mothers. A program
for the entire school will be given
Sunday in the auditorium, under
the craftsmanship of Mrs. Melvin
Mervis.
Mrs. Mervis, with the aid of the
rabbis, has conducted special Cha
nuka workshops to provide back
ground for the celebration.
Confirmation plans were outlined
at a meeting last Sunday of the
rabbis with parents of children in
the 1852 confirmation class.
An after-service forum was held
last Friday at the temple, with
Benjamin Garfinkle, Marvin Kool-
ish, Newton Rosenzweig and AL
bert B. Spector comprising the
panel. DIR. Edward Blank was
moderator.
Sabbath services are conducted
every Saturday at 11:30 am. at

Religious School.
Brochures detailing the celebra-
ton of Chanuka, designed for use
of parents in the home, are avail.
able at the gift shop and office of

Rival Sports Outfits In
Israel Reach Agreement
By Bill Wolf
Copyright, 1851. Jewish Telegraphic
Agency, Inc.)

Agency, Inc.)
TERMS OF THE important
agreement reached in Israel be-
tween Hapoel and Maccabi indicate
that the two rival sports organiza-
tions at last mean business. The
arrangements, under which they
are uniting to get in the olympics,
leave an opening for conciliation in
the event of future disputes. All of
which looks like a showing of good
faith on both sides.
NEWS OF THE settlement has
given heart to Israeli athletes
working for the olympics. Now they
have something definite to look
forward to. An attempt is
being made to get an olympic ski
team into shape. One of the OBJ
stacles is finding a training place.
There are about 300 members in
the Israel Ski club, but Israel,
famous for lot of things, isn't
particularly famous for snow
capped mountains. In fact, most
of the country's best skiers are
immigrants coming from countries
where the sport is popular. i.
Hapoel will send soccer team
to the United States next spring.
Hapoel broke even with an all-star
team of the American Soccer
League, which just returned from
a tour in Israel. The American
squad defeated Hapoel, FL, in one
contest, lost 20 in another, and
dropped one to Maccabi, 80. /.
A spokesman at the Israeli con-
sulate told the Jewish Telegraphic
Agency that according to reports it
has received, Hapoel and Maccabi
will have an Israeli olympic COM
mittee composed of IL members, six
from each organization. The COM
mittee will Immediately take steps
to apply for recognition by the
international olympic committee.
1t has been a foregone conclusion
that once Israel presented united
body, acceptance would be forth
coming.
Should there be a deadlock on
any problem considered by the new
committee, a provision has been
made for mediation by Pinhas Ro-
sen, former Minister of Justice. In
addition, a general sports COM
mittee is to be formed to represent
Israel on an international level in
sports, so that in the future the
nation will be united in foreign
competition.
