GAMES This SEASON
Manhattan Eleyens Meet
Brooklyn and Queens Teams
in New Contests.
MANY BIG OPENING TILTs
Brooklyn Prep Resumes With
Erasmus Hall, and Situyvesant
and Commercial Clash.

The 1922 football season for the
schoolboys of Greater New York viii
be ushered in next Saturday, and in
dications point to the biggest season
that the sport has. ever enjoyed, in
attendance, accomplishment and in
quality of play.
While football is the lone sport that
is not supervised by the Public Schools
Athletic League, 1t has progressed
favorably by individual efforts. No
one schoolboy contest has yet equalled
in point of attendance the $4,000 to
10000 students that witnessed the De
Witt Clinton Stuyvesant annual clash
al Lewisohn Stadium last fsll: This
years schedule shows a marked in
crease of interborough contests. prin-
cipal of which are those in which
Erasmus will meet the High School OF
Commerce. Evander Childs eaces New
Utrecht. Stuyvesant meets CONNER
cial, Boys meets the High School of
Commerce and Morris and Fordham
Prep clashes with Brooklyn Prep.
The biggest step toward deciding the
championship muddle in Brooklyn, such
as existed last year among Manual
Training, Poly Prep. and Erasmus. has
been taken by the Manual League. COM
posed Of alumni of Manual Training
High school, in offering a trophy TO the
eleven selected as the best among the
h.v
mittee of coaches. sporting writer's. and
laymen. Not since the Keith trophy
was withdrawn from competition, and
the old Long Island Interscholastic Foot
ball League disbanded have there been
hopes for a clear title.
De witt Clinton Hard Pressed.
In Manhattan and the Bronx, taken
holder for the past seven years, may
be forced from its throne, by Stuyve-
SAINT, which threatened seriously last
year, the High school, of Commerce. or
Evander Childs.
While Clinton is left with only two ex-
perienced players, the other three schools
have almost their entire elevens back.
>Stuyvesant will miss George Gierschev-
sRi, its fullback. and Evander will miss
Bud Slaughter, tackle. and Capt. Hob
son, but plenty of good material point to
better teams than represented those
schools in 1921.
Fordham Prep has a stronger eleven
than last year when 1t smothered Com
merce, 25--0. and Brooklyn Prep. 40.
but with the exception of Brooklyn Prep
II has been unable to get any high
school teams in the city to meet 1t. 1t
figures to lead the Catholic schools Of
the city again.
Manual has the most experienced team
in Brooklyn, but Poly Prep and Eras-
mus. though hard hit by graduation. may
be expected to furnish the leading oppo-
sition. New Utrecht has a fast but
light aggregation. Flushings stock has
taken a big leap with the return to
school Of "Bookie" Bach. who has been
the mains.ay of the Greensboro "Red
Devils" for three years.
Erasmus Halls games with Poly Prep
ut Ebbets Field November Is and with
Manual Training November and Clin-
tons contests with Commerce November
25 and with Stuyvesant November are
still the high lights OF the season. Eras-
mus has scheduled game for Ebbets
Field November 25 with the high schools
champion of Chicago. although 1t could
hardly be regarded as an intercity match
should Erasmus fail to whip Manual and
Poly.
The feature attractions OF the opening
days play is Brooklyn Prep VS.. Erasmus

resumption OF football relations between
