When the South Side High School
football eleven scored a to victory
over the gridiron warriors of East
Side High School, at the City Field
yesterday afternoon, a tie was estab-
lished for the championship in the
Newark High School Athletic Asso-

Barringer and South Side elevens,

lieved. however, that both will either
be held by the awarding parties until

be held alternately by each school
during a portion of the year.

more to the open-play style and threw
forward passes galore. Most of these,
however, never reached the mark

The second period saw a pretty
battle between the linemen of the
contending elevens. Both quarter
backs, when in possession of the
ball, insisted on directing their plays
at the line, either center, guard or
