MAROONS FIGHT

L
down, and a subsequent score seem
ed sure, but High was penali2ed
five yards for an off side. From
this point Captain Westcott decided
to allow Saracinsky to try his foot
The ball was snapped back, but the
heavy Vineland line broke through
and blocked the kick, which was
recovered by Saracinsky and given
to Vineland on its 30-yard line.
From this point penalties and
losses forced the visitors to the
shadows of their goal posts, aud
then behind the goal line, but fl
nally the backs protected a kicker,
who sent the ball out to midfieid
With the ball in Maroon's hands
and but a short time to play, it
was fumbled, and Vineland was out
of bad hole. The period and half
ended with the ball in midfeld
Both teams struggled without
success in their efforts to dent the
others goal line the second half.
Although Vineland seemed to make
many gains, and constantly out
played the locals while they had
the ball in the center Of the field,
the Class B champions could not
gain when within the 30 yard line
Toward the end Of the game Ca
terina, visiting rullback, constantly
made first downs for the visitors
when. well protected, he reeled eff
series of brilliant runs. His
team mates seemed unable to gain
against the Maroon line. and he
could not carry the oval far enough
to be dangerous.
Caterina and Kane We're the two
shining lights for the respective
teams, the former for Nineland and
the latter for Pleasantville. Cater
ina starred on the offensive, while
Kane was a defensive ace. The
big colored tackle, who should be
taken into consideration by those
who make out the All-State honors,
was in practically every play. He
made more tackles than anyone on
the field by far. Twice he WAS
pulled in the backfield when the
locals were in a hole. and gained
about yards each time through
the heavy Vineland line.
He was penalized each time Tor
not being 5 yards behind the l'ne
of scrimmage, however.
Vineland seemed 10 outplay The
Maroon, if first downs are taken
into consideration, although the Wis
itors were never within anything
like scoring distance OF the locals
goal line, while Captain Westcott's
eleven was constantly in the Visi-
tors territory the first half and
stopped them from getting within
The 3O-yard line the second part Of
the game.

rival to the Maroon, plays here Sat

MARKET STRONGER
 DURING THE DAY
Constructive Forces Showing
 Results Now

New York. April e2 P-Construc- tive forces were at work in todays stock market which again moved upward under the leadership of the railroad shares. With freight car loadings and bank clcarings showing no indication of any marked depres- sion in business, and Are quarter earnings reports generally favorable, operators on the long side found plenty of ammunition in their cam paign to restore speculative conA- dcnce, The senate's approval of the Italian debt settlement brighter prospects for an agreement for the funding of the French debt, renewal of merger negotiations by railroad executives, the department of jus ticc's approval of the Tidewater- Associated oil merger and the con tinuance of easy money rates all helped to cPeate bullish sentiment. The advance in prices was an or dcrly one with the breadth in the demand suggesting increased public participation. Pools were again ac- liye in a number of specialties, but it was noticeable that they were concentrating their activities on the shares of companies reporting large current earnings, particularly those with promising prospects for higher dividends.
