POTOMAC CLUB BANNER LIKELY
Red Tope Hits WI
In Henley Planning.

cannot envision an interna-
tional event like the Henley,
which began in 1899. rushing
of an appeal to an American
group for a stamp Of approval.
The VHSL meets on June
10, at which time an applica-
ton from Henley could be con-
sidered If it arrives. 1t then
would 60 to the National Fed
Grafton. II it is approved there
it would go back to the Vir-
GINA group, then through
Principal Norris to the Airing
ton School Board.
Any Of these three groups
could turn down the project,
for a number Of reasons. The
length of the race, a mile and
f1ve-sixteenths, would be a
deterrent. High schools nor
mally compete at a mile.
Also, the WI youngsters
would be UP against boat clubs
college lightweights and Navy
and air corps crews in the
Thames Challenge Cup event
High school officials frown on
schoolboys competing against
opponents who are over 20 years
old.
Then, too, there is the pos
sibility that the regatta will moi
accept the WI entry. Coach
Charlie Butt has written a
lengthy explanation to Henley
on why the entry was filed

The difficulty with Washing
ton-Lee High Schools compet-
ing in England's Henley Regatta
next month appears to be not so
much the raising of money as
gaining permission to represent
the school.
This may be the reason why
no American public high school

Anacostia's latest Interhigh .
baseball championship may not
have been achieved as i'm
pressively as in 1855 and Sc,
but the Indians got the job
done.
Outhit by Western, 6 to 5,
in a semifinal playoff last week,
Anacostia employed superior
defense for a 6-l victory. In
the finals at Griffith Stadium
yesterday, Anacostia outslugged
Mckinley Tech for a Sd tri-
umph.
Ronnie Slant, the Indians
slim 6-foot-2 righthanded
pitcher, withstood a shaky last
inning to survive. Slant car
ried a 81 lead into the top Of
the seventh after yielding only
two singles and an unearned
run in the second. But Tech
punched four more singles into
the seventh to come up with
three runs.
Slant Equal to Occasion
When Slant then walked
Jerome Carter on four pitches
to put the potential winning
run on base with two out,
Coach Cliff Netherton emerged
from the dugout for the first
time. His star hurler waved
him back, however, and Lance
Klein's furious warmup in the
bullpen was wasted.
Slant worked a three-and-
two count on Al Smith and
struck out the centerfielder for
the fourth time, bringing a
swarm of Anacostia players and
partisans down on his shoulders.
Junior Bill Guthrie led the
Indians hitting with a single
and triple and two runs-batted-
in. He tied the score at IL in
the second when he singled
home Jack Burke, who had
walked and advanced on a fly
ball and a groundout.
In the bottom of the sixth,
Guthrie tripled to score Ernie
Gee, running for Burke after
the latter singled and reinjured
an ankle. Little Ken Courtney
followed with a triple to the
same spot in right-centerfield
to drive home Guthrie with
what proved to be the winning
run.
Anacostia's other two runs
came in the fifth. Courtney
singled, ran all the way to thirc
base on Stants tap back to the
mound and scored on Shorty
DIVERS single to rightfleld. Div
yer stole second and came
home when Mike Cicala's SHARP
grounder went through thirC
base for an error.
Tech Opens Scoring

the second inning. Carter sin
