BASKETBALL Eastern's Ramblers drove up to the very threshold of the championship in the '40-'41 season, only to be pushed back in the inter-high by Roosevelt, and later by Gonzaga in the Metropolitan. In his first year as coach, Mr. Phil Fox turned a group of boys, all inexperienced, except Capt. Moe Shulman, into ranking candidates for the title. Stressing smoothness in their ball handling, the Fox boys in Blue won 18 games, while losing only four. These were twice to Roosevelt and Gonzaga. Starting off with victories over outside schools at the beginning of the year, the Ramblers turned later to the high school teams, rolling over all competition until they came to their first game with Gonzaga, which they lost, 30-28. ln the course of time the tide rolled over Central, Anacostia, Wilson, Tech, and Calvin Coolidge, but it remained for Roosevelt to spoil our hopes of a perfect inter- high series. ln a game which was Roosevelt all the way, there simply were no excuses for the Ramblers, we went down to defeat. Rebounding from this blow, we continued our series without any further defeats. ln the finals we beat Tech badly and were ourselves kept away from the cup by another scrappy Roosevelt nine. To the new Coach should go peans of praise for the wonderful iob he did in bringing Eastern up to the brink of the title, even if they didn't cross it. lO4

BASEBALL Always the bridesmaid, but never the bride. Eastern could change this around and say for the past two years, Always the runner-up but never the champ. Old Charley Guyon, dean of high school baseball coaches, is out to break the iinx wide open this year. He's either going to capture the crown or bust trying. Boasting a pitching staff as good as any, Eastern will have nothing to fear in the way of losing games because of poor hurling. Kenny Deavers and his friend, Kenny Curles, are the foundations for the hopes of the Chief for the league pen- nant this year, but facing the Ramblers will be strong Central and Tech nines, out to do their best to turn our dreams for the Crown into a nightmare. 2 L, ' si, C E l S 105
