Since city schools joined the Maryland Public Secondary Schools Athletic Association two years ago, the football teams from City and Poly have routinely beaten the opposition by lopsided scores.Poly (20-3 over that stretch) reached the 3A state semifinals in 1993, and City has gone 18-3 as a 3A school. But winning isn't everything, the teams' coaches say."When you're hammering teams like we were, neither side is getting much out of it," said City's George Petrides. "I can't imagine blowing out MSA teams like that."

ANNAPOLIS -- Juvenile Court judges can decide what kind of treatment a youthful offender should receive, but only the Department of Juvenile Services has the authority to decide where he gets it, the Court of Appeals ruled yesterday.The decision overturned court orders in three Baltimore cases to send juvenile offenders to a private reformatory in Pennsylvania, with Juvenile Services picking up the bill.Judges can recommend a type of treatment, the unanimous court decided. But it is the prerogative of state officials, charged with controlling their own budget, to decide which facility could best provide that treatment at a reasonable cost.

The Maryland Court of Appeals has ruled that two Baltimore judges erred when they ordered state juvenile authorities to send three young offenders to a Pennsylvania reformatory at state expense.Decisions by Baltimore Circuit Judges Joseph H.H. Kaplan and Roger W. Brown to send three young offenders to the Glen Mills School, a private reformatory in Concordville, Pa., were "improper" and "prejudicially erroneous," the state's highest court said yesterday.Officials with the state Department of Juvenile Services, which pays for the care of juvenile delinquents, applauded the ruling.
