Championships in the areas top
three high school football leagues
are far from decided, but games
this week will be factors.
Coolidge. still very much in the
running in the Western Division
of the Interhigh Division I race,
plays at Roosevelt Friday in what
stacks us as the top game of the
week. Wilson will be host to
Tech and Western to AnacoStia in
other Division I games.
Coolidge and Wilson victories
Friday would make the November
z game between these two teams
the big one.
The Catholic League race, as
usual, appears two-man affair
likely to be decided when Gonzaga
meets st. Johns at Griffith Sta
dium the night of November 81.
However, the two smaller teams,
Georgetown Prep and DeMatha,l
could jolt the leaders. George
town Prep entertains Gonzaga
Friday and the Little Hoyas, fresh
from yesterdays 80 victory over
DeMatha and with the possibility
of taking over the league lead, |
are expected to be up for this one
But Gonzaga. 1910 victory over
6alesianum in non-league game
at Wilmington, Del, yesterday,
figures to be too strong.
Big Game for Armstrong.
Armstrong plays at Cardozo
Friday in an important game in
the Interhigh Division II race.
Armstrong leads the league at
10 and is one of the few un-
beaten, united teams in the area
with SO record. Phelps. upset
winner over Cardozo last week, is
favored to hand Dunbar its second
league loss Thursday at Brooks
Stadium.
Georgetown Prep used a safety
and pass fnterception yesterday
to register its first victory against
three defeats and a tie. DeMatha
stopped Little Hoya drive at its
own one in the third quarter but
relinquiShed two points when Jim
Magner tackled Bill Russell in
the end zone. Dick Crowley gave
the Little Hoyas their touchdown
in the fourth quarter when he
intercepted Russells pass on the
Stays Is and carried over. It
was DeMatha's fifth setback in
six games.
Gonzaga won its third game
against two losses and a tie be-
hind Jack Kirchner and Frank
Vita. Kirchner and Vita spanked
the Eagles to a 49-yard touch
down march in the second quar-
ter, Vita driving across the final
2 yards.
GOnZaga Scores Again.
Fritz RatgheneS recovered
Salesianum tumble on that teams
25 to set up the second score.
Kircnner skirted end for IA yards,
then went off tackle for the
touchdown.
