where he has become an outstanding
player on n of the most powerful
teams ever developed at that insti-

All over America sporting writers

practice of proclaiming that any

time-honored. however, as the grid

favorites over those selected by the

SENIORS AND JUNIORS PLAY
SCORELESS Tie YESTERDAY

The senior class football team and
the junior eleven battled to "a score
less tie on the Raritan Copper works
gridiron yesterday morning. The re-
spective teams were captained by
brothers, the seniors by Jimmy Sill
yer and the juniors by Tom Silver,
and both played the same position.
The two brothers battled as hard as
did the Callahan brothers in the
Princeton-Yale game.
En- runs by the Junior backs and
line-plunging by the seniors fea-
tured this game, and both teams
showed up well in tackling. Tommy
Silver was the shining light for the
junior team with his passing and
running style of attack, he making
several long runs. Line-plunging by
Alex Cohen and the defensive work
of Forman also featured for the
juniors.
The senior backfield worked
smoothly, and each member con-
tributed his share OF ground gain
ing. The junior team threatened to
scorce twice during the game. once
in the second quarter and again in
the last quarter. On both occasions
the strong defensive work of the
seniors prevented a score.
