Newark High Lands Championship
By Great Victory Over Laurel 800
Marvels Sussex Team No Match for Local Grdders But
Put Up Hard Fight All The Way. Consistent Driving
on Offense Biggest Factor in Victory
NEWARK BACKS TEAR UP ENEMY LINE

late in the quarter opened up an
aerial attack that completely bewild-
cred the Marvel clan, completing one
for touchdown, Hubert to Cromp-
ton. Big "Biff" Hopkins also added a
touchdown to the growing total by a
line plunge from the five-yard mark
in this canto. The Newark contin-
gent kept up continual barrage Of
noise. Laurel looked like a beaten
team by this time.
Early in the final period, Newark
intercepted Laurel pass and again
started down the field reeling off five
to ten yards on every play. Townsend
pushed oven the final score. In the
waning minutes of the game Hubert
tossed a pass over the goal line.
Mayer was waiting for it with arms
outstretched, when Laurel back tore
in front of him, but instead of batting
the ball to earth, caught it and
started away. Mayer caught and
downed him before he reached the
playing field for a safety. Here the
game ended.
The whole Newark team comes in
for a great share of the praise. All
the men worked together as they have
all season, without the slightest trend
towards individual achievements. This
spirit of teamwork has won great
many of the games for them. The
line played through the entire game
intact and clearly out-fought the Sus'
sex forwards.
Captain Hubert, although failing tt
score, played whale of game
sensing plays, directing the defense
. and smearing many plays before the!
had started. Hen Townsend chose hi
, plays we'll and kept his head at al

Down into the heart of lower Della

gridiron experts last Saturday to do
their utmost to lift the Secondary
crown for the third straight time,
and sure enough, they did that little
trick with great despatch. The, score---
we'll that is the best part of the whole
story, for there were very few loyal
rooters back home who could believe
that their team had conquered the
Sussex outfit by the score of 500.
Laurel was confident. They even
went SO far as to bury the Newark
team in effigy the night before. Fully
1000 people saw the game. At least
Is of that number travelled all the
way down from Newark to support
their team.
When the teams came on the field,
the rangy Newark squad caused many
admiring comments. They looked the
part of champions. Laurel was
slightly outweighed and conculsively
outplayed.
Laurel received the kickoff at the
beginning of the game and started
right off with a rush. Newark took
the ball away from them inside their
own twenty yard line and reversed
the procedure. Up the field they
marched on straight line bucks and
off tackle plunges. Townsend called
his plays carefully and calmly and
the heavy Newark backs went tc
work in earnest. A forward, Hubert
to Townsend, took the ball over fol
the first score.
