The Sophomores are today the class champions of Central High school. as a result of their 20 to victory over the Juniors out on Munger field yesterday afternoon.
 The Juniors put up a stronger fight against their victorious opponents than the score would indicate. They would probably have scored at least two touchdowns had they not fumbled when on the Sophs goal line.
 The Sophs scored in the second quar- ter, when La Sale caught Levvy's pass and. evading two tacklers, crossed the Juniors goal line for their first touchdown. Levvy missed the try at goal.
 The second touchdown came when Pots" Levvy circled left end for 65 yards and touchdown, later kicking goal. The final touchdown came in the last quarter, when "Hootney" Newton snagged Levvy's pass and ran 20 yards for the counter. Levvy kicked goal
 Clarence Berk was the undoubted star of the game. Had the Junior fullback been given any kind of inter- ference on his line bucks and runs around end. he probably would have gotten aloose many more times than he did. Every time Berk took the ball, the Soph line would crack before his rushes. Once Berk got aloose off , tackle for 50 yards, being tackled by Levvy almost on the goal line. On the rext play, however, the Juniors fum- bled and the Sophs punted out of dan- ger.
 Then the Juniors began an irresist- ible march down the field, only tc
 tumble when again within scoring dis tance of the goal.
 For the Sophs. Levvy was a star in the backfield. On the line, Homire, La Salle Cabaniss, Bowden and Young were good. Bowden and Young broke through time and time again and held l the Junior backs for no gain. For the Juniors Berk, of course, was the individual star On the line, Cobbs, Ware and Mills played best. The field was slow and wet and the backs were hindered much by the mud which chung to the pigskin and made f1mbling freQuent
