1947 CENTRAL BLUE DEVILS-Head Coach MR. SAL COMMISA - FOOTBALL Central's Blue Devils, City Champions of the '46 season, entered the Gridiron in '47 in a determined effort to repeat the difficult feat. Nutley High's Maroon was the first to chal- lenge the light blue and didn't make the grade as Central emerged with a 14-6 decision. Barringer's dark blue, a heavy team, the first city league obstacle, was removed in short order by a 19-0 decision. South Side High, next on the agenda, didn't have much of a team to brag about, but they did have the annoying habit of upsetting the favorites. Keeping this in mind, the Blue Devils played steady ball and gained their 32-6 decision. Following the South Side tilt we left the pleasant surroundings of City Stadium and raided Bloomfield. Tackling their team, we barely escaped with a 6-0 decision. West Side's Passing Green Wave was the biggest obstacle to a city league championship, and the game drew 17,000 at City Stadium. The tilt was the proverbial school-boy natural, with West Side the first team to mar our perfect record, winning the game in the last few minutes of play. Perth Amboy, Central Jersey Championship winners, was our next foe. On a rainy day in November, in a tightly-played game, Perth Amboy escaped with a 21-19 decision. From Perth Amboy the Blue traveled to Orange and there they again emerged on the short end of the score, this time 14-6. City Stadium was our next stop for the Thanksgiving Day game with East Side. The Red Raiders were determined to get our blood and played a brand of football which was unfamiliar as they won a 12-6 decision for the windup of their football campaign and ours. Our final record showed 4 wins and 4 losses for a .500 average, which is good in any man's league. The team fought hard and played their darndest and gained the respect of the entire school. 84
