1IlSh SCHOOL VIII In
oulge In the last grapple of the season
on Saturday with Pennington Semi
nary at Pennington. preparatory to
the annual gridiron battle on Thanks
. giving Day with East Orange High
Scnool. Barringer had an easy time
OIL 1t on Tuesday with South Side. The
Blue and White play was very ragged,
considering the lateness of the season,
However, 1t was good enough to win
10y score of 65 to 0, which demon
etrated the weakness of South Side,
\rather than the strength of Barrin-
ger. Pennington will prove a differ
emit proposition. Unless Barringer
puts forth Its best efforts, another de-
feat will be recorded on the already
heavy laden record of the Ridge
street Institution. Against South Side
In the first half 1t was dishearteninE
to the Barringer cohorts to imagine
the havoc that could have been
wrought by a speedy runnerback of
punts. The Barringer ends failed
completely to get down under Demp-
sey's kicks, with the possible excep-
ton OF the initial KICKOFF. on which
Fits, the centre, was the man that
caused Isenberg to tumble the ball.
Nick Hummell, in the second half, did
slightly better. Foster, at quarter
back. failed to handle punts capably.
He juggled the oval upon its receipt
and failed to run 1t back for any
great distance. Huntington, who re-
ceived for South Side, far outclassed
the Barringer quarter.
Railway Calls on RoseIIe Gszae.
Railway High School will clash with
East Orange High School Saturday.
at Ashland Field. in football game
alleged to be for the State champion
ship. Railway has not lost a game to
date, having defeated Barringer,
Dickinson. Rutgers freshmen and the
other teams on the schedule. Just be-
fore the grapple comes the announce
ment that Railway has refused to
meet Roselle for the championship of
the Union County Interscholastic
League. Roselle states that Railway
has refused to play on the only date
that is open on it's schedule. Railway
and Roselle have been at 1t hammer
and tongs since the opening OF the
season. Roselle attempted to prove
that several of the Railway players
We're professional baseball men, hav-
ing appeared in the lineup of the
Railway Athletic Association, q nine
composed of the High School players
and some well-known Newark semi
pros. The Union county scholastic
body investigated the matter and the
charges fell through, as 1t could not
be proven that the echoolboys had
received money for their services.
Now comes the statement that Rah-
way is avoiding game with the Ros-
ellians. Roselle claims that Railway
had not game on the day that was
the Roselle teams only open date.
RoseIle Has Advantage.
Roselle has the advantage over the
iHahwayites, as the latter cannot es-
t1blish a title to the county honors,
unless they dispose of the contender
from Roselle. Roselle, though not as
brilliant as Railway, may be rated
just as high, as 1t defeated Central
High School, the team which held
Barringer to a 6 to tie. 1t Is upon
a IA to defeat of Barringer that
for the State championship. Why
cannot Roselle file claim for the
State honors by virtue of its 1870 de-
feat of Central, which team, by actual
performance, is the equal of the
Ridge street institution? Saturdays
game will be considerable contest,
Judging from present indications.
Railways chances of victory are
slim, unless it can defend it's goal
against the stiffness of the Red and
Blue attack. East Orange Is not bat
tered up from the Peddie game last
Saturday, as was anticipated. When
Coach Grosenbaugh saw the score
sailing up above fifty points against
his charge he sent in the second
stringers Fitzsimmons is still little
lame from the game, but he will prob.
ably get going after a little action.
The Armstrong boys In the backfield
of the Railway team are q pair of
sterling end runners, but in Fischer
and Taylor they will meet a pair of
ends whose tackles are usually dead
stops.
