Barringers play tomorrow at the
City Athletic Field will be watched
with considerable interest The team
has been doing great work in prac-
tice despite the loss of it's star quar-
terhack Perry Foster Jack Diamond
has worked his way to the signal
calling station and in all probability
he will call the plays tomorrow. The
game will mark the first performance
of the Barringerites at the local held
Last Saturday Barringer and Phi
lipsburg played a scoreless tie al
Phillipsburg. Last year at Railway,
Barringer was beaten by score OF
IA to s. Barringer's followers are
anxious to see the team in action
for more reasons than one. They
want to know just how the team
shapes up minus Andy Dempsey, last
years captain and star player. There
is another one of the Dempsey
brothers, however, who will likely fill
his brothers shoes. Robert Demp-
sey is the fourth member of the
Dempsey family to represent Bar
ringer High School on the gridiron.
Raymond, William and Andrew pre-
ceded Robert and all were stars in
their line. Robert Dempsey is play
ing a substitute halfback and may
be shifted to quarterback before the
end of the season. He is a fast man
on the field and a sure tackler. Law
renee Sliker will play centre with
Smithurst and Noble guards; Cap
tain Mausert and Halstead, tackles,
and Ten Eyck, Brandies, Hummel
and Searles, ends. In the backfeld
will be seen Schneider, Gardner,
Cairns and Dempsey with Diamond
playing quarterback.
Rutherford Has Fine Opportunities.
Rutherford has the chance of a
lifetime of making scholastic foot
ball history in it's game with East
Orange at Ashland Field tomorrow
afternoon. This is the one big game
on the Rutherford teams schedule
and Principal Van Alta, who also
acts as team coach, is anxious 10
have his charges pull through with
a victory. East Orange does not ap-
near as strong as it did last year
when it had Taylor and Fisher for
the flank positions and Brentano for
the backfeld On the other hand,
Rutherford has practically the game
eleven as that which represented the
school in 1913. The Rutherford team
is practically built up around three
big warriors, Hillhouse, Whitehill
and Wallace. Coach Grosenbaugn
has several substitutes to fill Fishers
and Taylor's places, while Bloss Will
likely come up to the standard set
by Brentano in the backfeld. The
game will start at $3.50 o'clock.
Central Players May Be Barred.
For failing to appear for regular
daily practice, it is said that Harry
Bossett, George Hopkins and Sidney
SAFER will not be allowed to play for
the Central High School eleven
against the Dover team at the City
Athletic Field today. With these
three players off the team, central
will probably have a hard time get
ting by with victory, over the Dover
bows. Krout has been substituting
for Safer at quarterback and appears
to be making an impression on the
Central coach. 1t is probable that
Krout will leave the end position be-
fore the season is over and call the
signals for the Central team
Montclair High to Play Open Game.
Like Foster Sanford at Rutgers,
James K. Alverson, former Rutgers
and Barringer High School star foot
ball player, will have the Montclalr
High School team, of which he is
coach, play the open game TINS
season. Alverson predicts great
things for his charges and is not
backward in stating that the New
Jersey Interscholastic Athletic As
ISOLATION championship banner will
probably hang on the walls OF the
Montclair school Alverson says he
has great material. In the game
against Orange today at the Orange
playground, he expects to use about
twenty players. Alverson, without
doubt, has one OF the strongest back
fields that ever represented the noun
tain town institution. Sheldon Mora,
Ward Starrett and George Hill will
probably form the big three in the
backfield.
