City tries a pass, Manhattan knocks it down -MANHATTANS BALL! As they line up the whistle blows4GAME'S OVER. A mob of Manhattan rooters swarmed out on the field, uprooted the goal-posts, despite futile efforts, to stop them by an assortment of cops, and, led by the band, paraded around the field. It must be said for the Lavender rooters that they showed themselves gentle- men, good sports, and good loosers. As the joyous Manhattan parade, with the uprooted goal-posts, danced past the City section, the City rooters stood up and applauded. After losing a heartebreaking game, it was certainly a very decent thing to do. The Manhattan players said that it was the cleanest game they had played all year. It is a pleasure to play City College. The team deserves all the credit in the world. They played as they had never played beforeg Neil Cronin, who only three days before had sacrinced a pint of blood for his brother, who was seriously ill, fought like a demon, the giant Mazurki, aroused for once in his life, played as he really can play, Burns put up a whale of a game at center, and saved it by his two kicks after touchdown. Teddy Stein, in his last game for Manhattan, ran the team like a master, choosing his plays headily. and incidentally reeling off a few gains himself, Pete Price showed himself to be of All-American calibre, while Ferrari on the other end, was all over the field, and three times recovered City fumbles: Giangreco, Farrell, Driscoll and VValsh out- fought their heavier opponents as if their lives depended on itg Ed Cronin, the sensation of the day, averaged nine yards on his runs, while Blake Powers ran inter- ference, made tackles all over the place, and completed the forward pass which u 'l placed the ball in scoring position on the final touchdown, and McBride-will we Q ever forget his runs-his covering and breaking up those forward passes in those final frantic minutes? To Coach Schwartzer, we must bow in admiration. Handicapped by lack of men, playing one of Manhattanis toughest schedules, he performed miracles. On the strength of the C. C. N. Y. game alone. he can set up as a second Houdini. A 5 fine fellow, a great coach, a gentlemanw-we like him! l. I V l L l. 1 It 5 1 4?
