Tech to Play Night Foot Ball Game Courts Listed for Horseshoe Tourney LISTS TILT WITH BALTIMORE POLY Jo Invade Monumental City September Has Contest Next Day. BY EDWARD A. FULLER, JR. TCH HIGH team may be the first schoolboy eleven in the District area to play a night foot ball game. Baltimore Polytechnic Institute has invited the Mc- Kinley boys to come to Homewood Field, Baltimore.

September 26 next for a nocturnal match and the Gray has accepted. Final details, however, were Battled this morning. i With the Baltimore Poly game arranged. Tech will play the two opening contests of its foot ball schedule on succeeding days or, to be exact, will meet Poly the night of September 26 and then hustle down to Winchester, to engage Handley High the next i afternoon, or less than 24 hours later, Such a program, however, is satis- factory to Coach Hap Hardell, as he figures he wfll have a chance to get an early look at just about every member of his squad in regular combat. Hardell says gridiron outlook is anything but bright despite that it will have a better nucleus than last year.

Will Seek Revenge. Tech and Poly have not met in foot ball for several years. In their last encounter, a post-season clash in Clark Griffith Stadium, McKinley was an easy victor. Some of the Baltimore adherents expressed the opinion at that time that Tech opposed an eleven which had broken training, following its regular schedule, and was not in condition. Be that as it may, Poly did not relish the defeat and would be tickled to death to hand Hardell's hopefuls a lacing.

Aside from the match with Poly, the Handley game and the four public high school contests, three games have been arranged for the McKinley eleven and another is pending. Episcopal is to be met October 3 or 4 at Alexandria, Woodward here October 31, Swavely at Manassas, Thanksgiving day, and an engagement is pending with Gonzaga for December 5 in the new Gonsaga Stadium. Here is the Tech schedule as it stands: September Poly at Baltimore. September High School at Winchester, Va. October 3 or at October October October November November 18 November 27 (Thanksgiving Swavely at Manassas, Va.

December at Gonzaga (pending). LETTERLESS YOUTH MADE TECH CAPTAIN Although he was unable to earn his letter, Everett Jones has been named track captain at Tech High by Coach Elmer Hardell. Jones, a hurdler, won second place for Tech in the Maryland scholastics and the Club meet, but failed to win a point in the interhigh championships, and thus not entitled to his letter, according to Tech custom. However, his failure was due, it was felt by Hardell, to an injured back and the coach has recommended that custom be waived and Jones given his monogram. Mai Edwards.

Tech base ball coach, has announced he would have no lar captain next season, appointing a leader for each game. This policy recently was adopted by two Western High teams. Edwards has recommended the following to receive letters: Capt. Benny Spigel. Russell, Wellens, English, Price, Benner, Chumbris, Wills, Levy and Manager Everett.

1030, TECH AND EASTERH IN FACULTY CLASH Artie Boyd and Chief Guyon Slated to Oppose on Mound Friday.
