EAGLES OUTPLAYED BY SOUTHIES Barringtorfs Eagles opened their 1956 football season by bowing before the powerful South Kingston team to the tune of 28-7 in a game played at Victory Field in Barrington. Led by jim Browning, who chalked up a total of 22 points, the Kingstonians were in full command all the way. Browning scored on a seven-yard plunge in the first quarter, a 39-yard gallop in the second quarter, and an ll-yard romp in the third. He also added four extra points, all on plunges through the line. Late in the second quarter Peter Cuppels went 34 yards for the tally on a romp around left end. Barrington's lone score came in the last quarter with Frank Polak direct- ing the attack. Dick Greene plunged for the point. BARRINGTON EDGED BY EAST GREENWICH The Eagles suffered a 7-6 setback in a hard fought tilt with East Green- wich at Victory Field. Neither team was able to score in the first quarter. During the second quarter the Avengers' Dave Baker barged across on fourth down, and joe Hathaway place-kicked the point. The Eagles' score also come in the second period of play when Barrington came into possession of the ball on a blocked punt by Bob Greene with an assist by Cres Pompeii, and a pass by Frank Polak bounced out of the de- fending arms of Len Harris into the hands of Bob Dalessio in the end zone. The rush for the tying point was short. EAGLES BLANKED BY THE COUGARS The Barrington gridders found themselves faced with stiff opposition when they clashed with the Cougars of North Providence. Bob Casci, one of the hardest runners in Class gave the Eagles their greatest jolts by tallying on 44 and 64-yard runs in the first and third quarters, respectively. Stan Bowen rushed the extra point to give the Cougars a 7-0 lead in the first quarter. The final score was 13-0. The Barrington offense was continually harried by the Cougar's forward wall which frequently spilled the Eagles for losses behind the 'line of scrim- mage. Dick Cashman and Ralph Wilkes played an outstanding game for N. P. while jeff Jacquart's line-backing job was a credit to the Eagles. I E Ir. f.. G. DAHL J. MEDICI 9I r irlgt B. DALESSIO f M3 .. V B.

PALAZZO wk. y BARRINGTON ROMPS OVER PAWTUCKET VOKE The Eagles gained their first victory of the season when they downed Paw- tucket Voke by a score of 28-20 in a game played at Victory Field. The Bar- ringtonians, paced by Dutch Jacquart, Cres Pompeii, and jeff jacquart, man- aged to score in every quarter. Voke suddenly came to life with a devastating aerial attack during the third period and, with touchdowns scored by Armand Lamontagne, Art Charbonneau, and Don Coelho, and two successful conver- sions by Wilson, managed to narrow to one point the lead held by the Eagles. The outcome of the tilt remained in doubt until the final quarter when Dutch jacquart scored for the Eagles for the second time. Bob Dalessio con- nected on all four of the conversions. EAGLES TURNED BACK BY WARREN After leading by a score of 12-6 at the end of the first half, the Eagles went down to a 19-12 defeat in an encounter with Warren at Victory Field. The first Barrington score came in the second quarter on a 14-yard pass from Dutch Jacquart to Bob Greene in the end zone. Then Warren's George An- dr'de came through with a TD. just before half time Barrington regained the lead on a 52-yard pass from Dutch jacquart to Cres Pompeii, which carried to the Warren one, and a quarterback sneak by Jacquart. Johnny Costa scored in the final quarter and Rimoshytus made the conver- sion. The playing exhibited by Warren during the second half showed that the team was much too strong for the Eagles. BARRINGTON TUMBLED BY NORTH KINGSTOWN The Eagles were held scoreless by the North Kingstown Skippers in a league game played on a rain soaked field at Wickford. Despite the brilliant passing of Billy Mudge, who had 16 completions, North was hampered by a strong Barrington defense. The only tally in the game came in the final two minutes when Barrington fumbled and the Skippers recovered the ball on the three-yard line. It was 'Mudge who finally sneaked over. EAGLES NIPPED BY BRONCS The Eagles went down in defeat before Burrillville at Victory Field. The Broncs' early offense produced a TD on the first play of the second quarter. The Broncs scored again in the final period with Dick Christien doing the carrying. The Eagles' lone score came in the third period when Bob Dalessio recov- ered on a blocked punt by Bob Greene. Dalessio, Polak, and Palazzo were the offensive standouts for Barrington. B. Greene, Yurchuck, Pompeii and D. Greene did a good job on the defensive. BARRINGTON TOPPLED BY COLT In its traditional Turkey Day game, the Eagles were trounced by Colt in a tussle at Guiteras Field in Bristol. Colt began to roll up its score early in the first quarter when Tony Nastri plunged over for a TD and also rushed the extra point. D. GREENE D, WELLS 90
