FOOTBALL The football campaign of 1941, which will go down as the greatest in East- side grid history, came to a climax on December 8, when Coach Dave Ross heard his team acclaimed as the North Jersey Group IV, Section 1, Champions, and a consensus of sports writers present at the annual conference of the New Jersey Interscholastic Athletic Association, named Eastside as the mythical state champions. In their quest for the umythicalw state title the l'Undertakers,' amassed 187 points while their opponents could only account for 20. The Ghosts opened their campaign with Montclair, rated very highly in the state. They took advantage of the breaks and when husky Ted Dostanko crashed through the line to block a Montclair boot deep in their territory, the only score of the day was set up, giving Eastside a 7 to 0 victory over the Mounties. . The second game brought West Orange, a formidable foe, to Baeurle Field. In this tilt the Undertakersn started early and strong and when the final whistle blew, the eleven had rolled up 24 big points, holding the t'Cowboys in check throughout. Following this victory the Orange and Blue moved against Lincoln of Jersey City. They trampled over the I-Iudsonites and with Al Kachadurian slicing through the line, posted a 19 to 6 victory.

The Mustangs were greeted with four l touchdowns, two by land and two by air, for a 27 to 0 rout. L Hopes of remaining unbeaten were shattered on Election Day when the uIn- diansn from Passaic, in a rough and tumble affair, posted an 8 to 6 upset. This defeat only angered the l'Ghosts and they scared 20 points from East Rutherford to post a shutout victory. The visitors brought with them the famous Syracuse HY formation, which proved ineffective. A Pointing all season to their important tilt with Garfield, the Rossmen came if through and outfought the Boilermakers for a 13 to 0 victory. This win l shattered a streak of 16 straight unbeaten games compiled by the Argauermen. Led by Larry Doby's 60 yard touchdown run after a pass interception, and 1 the line bucking of Al Kachadurian, the Orange and Blue scored twice in the l second quarter, enough to offset any threat Garfield might have brought up. 1 The uUndertakers finished their schedule on Thanksgiving Day against their l downtown rivals and before 12,000 Patersonians unmercifully trounced the l Colts 45 to 6. Kachadurian threw 20 passes, completing 14 for live touch- l downs, three by Larry Doby, and one each by Fred Elsner and Heinz Suhl. Two other scores came on a line plunge by Kachy,' and an off tackle run by Lou Sylvester. This victory evened the city series with Central, both elevens evenly sharing 16 games and tying one. ,S raa r , as ' f J, KLM? ' l ' ff .
