HARRISON MAKES
RUN OF 40 YARDS
First Touchdown Result of a
Forward Pass Engineered by
Bright and Grace.

Bay Ridge defeated the Stuyvesant
High School eleven at West End Oval
yesterday by a score Of 10 to 0. I'm
beaten and unsecured on thus far this
season, the Bay Ridge lads have high
hopes of marching through TO the
championship in their remaining games.
With coaches OF the Manual and
Adelphi teams on the side lines, the
Bay Ridge lads did not cut loose with
their plays OF last resort, for the good
reason that Stuyyesant at no time
offered serious opposition. Within
three minutes of the starting whistle
the Bay Ridge team had swept down
the field for touchdown, and 1--WE
more followed before the game ended.
Stuyyesant never came much closer
than midfeld, although on one or two
occasions they reached the 30-ysrd
line. There, however, they were halted
and forced 10 yield the ball.
All honors in the game did not fall
on the shoulders Of Jack Bright, the
dashing little Bay Ridge back, who
shines on the football gridiron with
even greater brlliance than his name
would connote. Bright had TO share
the spoils of victory, for the once at
least, with Dutch" Karlson and Cap

! game, while Grace was all over the
field, smearing the Stuyyesant runners
in their tracks. And not 10 be forgot
ten was big Butch" HARRISON, "Dutch's"
younger brother, who tips the beam
at 240.
Butch" lunged from his place in
the line within the last five minutes OF
play and, waving his arms like fails.
batted down a forward pass that Nc
Guinnes, the Stuyyesant quarterback,
had launched from his own 35-ysrd
/ line. Karlson not only bstted the ball
/ down; he caught il on the fly, and
with the whoe Stuyvesant team at his
/ heels sped along for forty yards, seor-
/ ing a touchdown.
Bay Ridge showed the results Of
skillful coaching on the part of Billy
Kearney and Jack O'Connell, the lat
ter an old Columbia player Apart from
little uncertainty in handling the
ball, which resulted in three disgrace
full fumbles, the Bay Ridge boys
played clean, aggressive game, with
an attack that had worlds Of power.
The line was not powerful in It's de-
fensive play, but the greatly inferior
Stuyvesant forwards discounted any
weakness en- the part of Bay Ridge

irreproachable, and every Stuyvesans
runner who emerged with the ball was
brought 10 earth by Bright, Diamond
or Adlman.
Altman, however, often showed poor
judgment in his selection of plays, and
one Of his miscues cost the Bay Ridge
q. eleven touchdown in the third quar-
ter. After Bright and Dutch" Karl
son had brought the ball down from
the 40-yard line on two long runs and
planted il on the 4-yard line Adlman
called for n forward pass, which he
, shot far over the line. That gave the
ball TO the Manhattan team on their
20-yard mark.
Stuyvesant had bad case OF rattles
at the start, and a couple of fumbles
put Bay Ridge within scoring distance
before the echoes of the whistle had
died away. The first touchdown came
on a forward pass for forty yards, en-
gineered by Bright and Grace. Then
Bright shot fifty yards through the
Stuyvesant team for the second score.
In the third period Altman broke away.
and a rrn for thirty yards put the ball
on the Stuyvesant 4-yard line, whence
it went over in two plays, karlson
carrying the ball.
Diamond, Bright and the two Karl
sons scored touchdowns in the last
half
