Eastern High Whips
Anacostia as Bell
Loses TO Coolidge
By Brion Bell, Jr.

Eastern went into a tie with
Tech for third place in the In
terhigh standings by rolling past
AnacoStia, 81-46 in the second
game Of league double -header
at Tech last night.
Coolidge rallied to beat Bell.
1866, in the opener.
The Ramblers, who made their
interhigh record 81, led 17-13 at
the end of the first quarter and
1922 at the half. Eastern
slowly increased its margin in
the third period, and widened
the gap in the last quarter as
Anacostia could make only six
points.
Some of the sloppiest basket
ball of the interhigh season was
demonstrated by both clubs.
Wild passes, loss of the ball.
walking and impossible shots
were more the rule than the ex-
ception.
Eastern Uses Press.
Leading by only four points at
the end of the first quarter, East
ern used an all-court press to
confuse the Indians and contin-
ued these tactics with marked
success throughout the game.
The officiating permitted
much rough play in the first half
and the game looked more like
a football scrimmage than baSk-
etball until the referees became
more strict.
Gino D'Ambrosio led Eastern
with 10 points, while Sonny Wise.
star all-round athlete who was
playing his last game for the
Ramblers, hit for is. Dick But
ler topped Anacostia with IL
points.
Wise Ends School Career.
Wise put a fine finish on a
great three-year high school
athletic career. Sonny, ace left
handed pitcher, lost only two
games in scholastic action;
starred as a halfback in football,
and is the 10th leading scorer in
interhigh basketball this year
with a 10.9 average. Wise, who
was graduated last week, expects
to sign a professional baseball
contract in the near future.
In the first game Coolidge
overcame a five-point deficit at
halftime to beat Bell, 1866. as
Ray Sander scored 26 points
and Ardie Baker contributed %
for the Colts.
VOcats Lead at Half.
The VocatS made a game OF
it for the first half, hitting a
good percentage of their shots
to lead 1912 at the end of the
first quarter and 1888 at the
half.
The Colts took the lead at
41-39 after two minutes of the
third period and never trailed
thereafter, although the winless
Vocats hustled all the way.
Dave (Wrong Way) Dagan-
hardt, with 13 points, and Ray
Duncan with IL, paced Bells
first-half surge. Daganhardt
had 20 points for the evening
and Duncan wound up with 16.
The victory made Coolidge's
record % and left Bell winlesS
in five starts.

Contest al WI High
Has National Interest:
Hoyas Hit Penn State

George Washington and Mary
land have more at stake than
their Southern Conference
standing and the Districts "Big
Three" rivalry in their Tues
day night meeting at Washing
ton-Lee High School, the game
site because Of the ice show at
Uline's.
The Colonials are the high
est scoring major college in the
Nation with an average of 89.4
points per game, and Maryland
has the Second-beSt defense,
holding the opposition to 54.6.
There is considerable interest
in the result of a game match
ing the speedy style of the CO.
lonialS with Maryland's possess
sion style. and it probably will
get considerable national at
tention.
Neither Plans to Change.
Both coaches, Bill Reinhart
at George Washington and Bud
Millikan at Maryland often have
said they will play their own
games, meaning the Colonials
will not slow their pace, and
the Terps will not step up theirs.
Maryland has a IL record
in conference play and is 9-3
for the season. The Colonials
also are 9-3 for the season and
have an 8-3 record in the con-
ference.
The Westinghouse High
gym has a seating capacity Of
about 5000. 1t is unfortunate
for the Colonials that they are
forced to play in a gym only
half the size of Uline's on a night
they probably would fill the lat
ter for the first time in years.
Penn State at Georgetown.
The No. 2 attraction of the
week also is scheduled for Tues

.Seckinger 10 Seek
Draft Deferment for
Health Board Doctor!

The Commissioners will be
asked, at their board meeting on
Tuesday. to seek draft deferment
of District Health Department
physicians.
Health Director Daniel L.
Seckinger said he is alarmed be-
cause DR.. Daniel Leo Finucane
head of the Glenn Dale SAM
tarium for tuberculosis, and DR.,
John r. Pate, head of the De-
partment of Preventable and
Chronic Diseases and also in
charge of the Southwest Clinic,
may soon be called for Army
duty. Both have taken their
physical examinations.
1.-THE Health Department must
maintain its services" DR..
Seckinger said.
Reluctance Seen.
Commissioner F. Joseph Dono-
hue, said he thinks the Com
missioners win be reluctant to
seek deferment for these doctors,
if the Defense Department needs
them. Mr.. Donol1ue said he has
asked DR.. Seckinger for a list
of the key men in the medical
service who may soon be called
into service.
The Commissioner said that,
while it might be inconvenient
for the Health Department to
lose the services of men in key
positions. they probably could
be filled.
Commissioner Renah r. CANA
lier, who has immediate direction
of the Health, Department, said
the Commissioners duty is to
protect the public here.
PrentisS Undecided.
Brig. Gen. Louis w. Prentiss,
the Engineer Commissioner, said
he had not made up his mind
as to whether the Commissioners
should ask for deferment for
some of the doctors, who are
urgently needed here.
DR.. Pate said he passed his
physical examination in Deem
Der and that it might be about
six months before he is called.
He said he probably would be
commissioned a lieutenant colo
mel and that he would not mind
going into the Army, if he could
be of service.
He said several doctors at
Gallinger Municipal Hospital are
awaiting call from the Army
after passing their physical ex-
aminations.
DR.. Finucane said he took his
physical about six weeks ago.
IF Uncle Sam wants me, am
very agreeable to going into the
Army" he said.
The staff at Glenn Dale is
short of doctors now, officials
say, because of the low pay.
