High School Teams Had Fierce Grid

| bali contest that has been engaged In by

/ standsti!l. neither side scoring, at Aneri-
can League Park field yesterday afternoon.

| style of foot ball which the dark red and
gray is using to such an advantage The
| straight line rushes OF the two big Tech
meal tackles. DuGanne and Mccarthy,
counted for many gains. Mccarthy here
| tofore has not done the work which many
thought him capable of doing but yester-
| day afternoon he plunged through the Cen
tral line each time for gains of from three
| to ten yards. Both Technical and Central
| were represented by the largest crowd of
| rooters that has attended any of the games
| which the respective teams have engaged
| ln The Central grandstand was one living
| mass of girls, and how they did root for
| old Central. The girl from the freshman
| class was there, standing side by side with
| her sisters of the sophomore junior and
| senior classes, watching the contest with
cheering for the dark blue and white 9 tha
Central team would make a good play.
NO less numerous than the Central sup
porters were those roofing with might and
team Of the red and gray made a good
play, and there were many of them the
Technical crowd did good work with their
lungs.

| castons, and nearly the same force was
| useo pv lechnlcal to place the pigskin
| across the line, but Of no avail. In the
