CAPTAIN DEMPSEY STARS

AS has been the case, invariably.
since the formation Of the New Jer-
sey 1nterscholastic League. Barringer
High School bumped Stevens School
around the field yesterday in a league
/ game played at City Athletic Field
for a score of 80 to 0, which Is one
point short of the tally registered last
fall. Barringer slowed the game IN
der It's belt by a prompt seizure Of
opportunities and the successful exc
cution of several new plays Captain
Andrew Dempsey, OF the Blue and
White, after starting of badly With
q brace Of fumbles IN the first guar
tor redeemed himself and was
power In the scoring and defsnsive
machine Of the Barringerites- He
scored two of the touchdowns and
kicked the goals for three Of those
scored by the team. AS Barringsr
was forced TO kick only on two &C.
oasions Dempsey's toe failed . Kst
into the game to any great exssnt-
His two attempts for goals from
placement failed. In the early part
of the game GARDENER was IN tfs
lineup.
On a play patterned after the osd
tandem shift, GARDENER shot fhrraEh
the line to find that he had a clear
! field ahead and interference between
him and the Stevens oacixlers h
ran fifty yards for the first touch
down OF the day. Andy Dempsey
! kicked the goal. Another SCORE
/ seemed imminent In the last part Of
the second quarter, but the whistle
blew when the locals had pushed the
pigskin to the Hobokenites' cne-yard
| line.
| Between the halves Chief Broad
head took the squad OF the field and
laced II into them for their miserable
showing against the eleven that has
always been the butt of the league
| The principal object of the Barringer
coaches wrath was the line. During
| the entire first half 1t had failed ut
/ terly on the offensive. Steveuss
/ tacklers had gotten through and har-
ried the Ridge street backs before
they had started.
When play began in the third quar-
! ter Barringer, with still ragged Of
Tense on the part OF the linesmen, was

! Stevens's kick, after q series of futile
attempts to advance, was blocked.
and Dempsey nailed the ball and
dashed over the distance TO the goal
! LoE the cCCOUu w lILlI4 a
short period Toms and Mitchell. OF
Stevens, were forced to retire from
the game with injuries. and after
their removal II was one triumphal
march for the Barringerftes. On q
fake forward pass Dempsey dashed
over the striped green for forty yards
\ to the five-yard mark. after which II
was but an instant before he gath
cred the wherewithal for another
| touchdown. His attempt for the goal
was true in aim. At the beginning Of
the fourth quarter Foster carried the
| ball owed for the fourth touchdown.
after the ball had been placed within
striking distance by means Of slash
ing line plunging. Dempsey Kicked a
difficult goal
"Ole" Schneider entered the game
at this time. and soon made his pres
enee felt He opened up the throttle
for run of thirty yards, and netted
ten more on two consecutive plunges.
Here a forward pass. Dempsey to
Hummell, got the distance that Bar
ringer seemed 10 be unable to nst
through the line, owing to the in
ability of the linesmen to open up
holes for the backs to get through.
The pass was caught about ten yards
in back of the goal posts. and was
entirely unexpected. Dempsey failed
on the goal. The final whistle blew
before the kickoff. The score:
Stevens. Bsrringsr.
