November 21—St.: John’s vs. Gonzaga at Grifflth Stadium. ! Western wraps up the District: Interhigh Division I Eastern half; title next week and you can expect ; some mild protests that the Raid ers don’t deserve it. Eastern in particular has rea son to complain, for the Ramblers beat Western earlier in the sea son. but lost to Wilson and Coolidge, two of the strong teams from the Western Division. West ern hasn’t had to meet any real tough teams with the exception! of Eastern. The Raiders meet Chamberlain November 14 in their only remain ing series game. That they’ll win Is a foregone conclusion. Cham berlain hasn’t scored a point while losing seven games this season. The Raiders also beat winless Bell, Tech and Anacostia. However, there aren’t expected to be any harsh complaints, even from Eastern. The Ramblers have had their share of championships and while Western may have had it easy this season, it took on the' strong teams last year and in 1950. Thus, Western, provided Cham-! berlain doesn't pull one of the big gest upsets in Interhigh history,; will meet Wilson, already in as the Western Division champion, in the Interhigh title game the night of November 26 at Grif fith Stadium.

St. Albans 1 knocked off Bethesda-Chevy 1 Chase, 19-0, and Keating scored i once, passed to Haynes for an- t other and kicked a point. 1 After losing to Western, the i Saints bounced back to beat 1 Friends of Baltimore, 32-0. Keat- 3 ing was nursing a bruised muscle 1 and saw action on only one scrim- 1 3 mage play. He went in when 1 Dickie Reston, 128-pound tailback, 1 broke his arm (he is recuperating: j in Emergency Hospital) and ran 1 15 yards for a touchdown. Keat-,’ ing’s only activity thereafter con sisted of trying for extra points. ; Mike had his kicks blocked but passed to Haynes for a point. Last week St. Albans went to j Baltimore to play St. Paul’s and j although outweighed 20 pounds to , a man won, 26-6. Keating ran j 10 yards to score, passed 40 yards to Haynes for a touchdown and tossed to Bill for an extra point. Haynes caught another scoring from Smethurst. | Incidentally, extra points have been the Saints’ big problem this ! ! years. Keating is a fine kicker but has had most of his tries blocked. iSt. Albans has scored only five all season and got one the hard way against Baltimore Friends. The ! reserves were in and bucked across for the extra point. An offsides penalty set them back to the seven i No Time Off— Colds Eased While You Are at Work!

Coach Snakey Graham is proud f of his defensive line and particu larly praises Guards Carter Me- i Neese and Walker Fillius, both 150 pounders. A legitimate touch down hasn’t been scored against 1 the line all season—all opponents’, six pointers coming on passes ex cept for a 8-yard end run when: the defensive halfback was caught l ' inside. The Saints lead the Interstate Athletic Conference with a 2-0! record and are the only unde feated team in the league. They face three straight conference; rivals in a row, however, and must win them all to clinch the crown., Graham’s light but rugged Jaoys! might just do that. Fresh on the heels of the Len Kanthal ineligibility confusion which after much broken field running cost Coolidge a victory over Anacostia, comes word of an-! other protest, this one clothed; in even more secrecy than the; Kanthal case. ! It seems Roosevelt contended a Wilson tackle was playing his fourth season of interhigh foot-j ball while the rules forbid more; than three. Rider authorities maintained the player had seen action at Central in 1949 and 1950 before playing at Wilson last year. Wilson contended the boy had been at Central both those years but had not been on the football team in 1950. Roosevelt is reported to have sent a student investigator to the Library of Congress to look up newspaper accounts of Central’s 1950 games and the scout is sup posed to have found the disputed Wilson player’s name in the line- [ up. A secret meeting of interhigh principals was held last Thursday to review the facts and the edu cators were warned not to breath ,a word of the conference. It Discover Instant Starting...

SCI^BI^L 3 Wrestlers Wounded In Barroom Shooting By tho Asiociated Pmi TOULOUSE, France, Nov. Three wrestlers, one British, one Canadian and one a Belgian, were wounded in a barroom shooting incident here. They got into an argument with another drinker, who drew a pis tol in ordering them out. Pat Curry of Canada was shot in the abdomen. Tommy Mann, British cham pion, was shot in the kidney and Mad Deghom of Belgium was shot in the left shoulder and chest. Their condition in serious. turned out that the principals ruled that the proof assembled by Roosevelt was not conclusive and the Wilson player was eligible. This decision, of course, is labeled as final but one never knows.
