BASEBALL With 16 wins, l tie and 4 losses to our credit, our boys have proved their ability. They have played hard and victoriously this past season li 947l, and it has been one to remember. We won the City League Title with the excellent record of 9 wins and 'l tie. East Side was our opponent in a T3-inning game resulting in the tie, the score being 1-l. Central beat the Central Jersey Champions of Group lV iNew Brunswickl by a score of 5-O. The win- ning pitcher in that 9-inning game was our own Al D'Alonzo. One misfortune we witnessed was to lose to Caldwell High in the final quarter of a 9-inning game. That misfortune disqualified us from the Greater Newark Tournament. Results of some of the games were: Central won over Bloomfield 3-2, North Arlington 4-1. Andrew Kehrle was the winning pitcher in the South Side vs. Central game which proved he is a very capable ball player. The score was 8-7. Co-captains of the team are Andrew Kehrle and Kenneth Reith. The co-captains, with the superior instruction of their faculty advisor, Mr. Reilly, really helped bring our baseball team to its fame along with the excellent playing of the boys on the team. Andrew Kehrle, Andrew Bove, and Pat Loungo are fellows of the team graduating with our class. BASEBALL TEAM MR. ROBERT REILLY Coach HOT ACTION CENTRAL vs. NEW BRUNSWICK
