Two defeats ere registered to
local teams last night when the
~Sayreville Juniors and the ~Sayreville
A. A. downed the Ashlands and An
wills, respectively, at Fishers hall,
~Sayrevilie. The scores:
AshIands, Ia; Sayreville Jrs., rs.
Anvils, IL; S~ayreville A. A., 40.
It was not a slaughter in the "big"
game. Far from 1t. Both contests
were fast from beginning. to end and
only the Sayreville boys ability to
throw a field goal on their court
raised the scores to such high fig
ures. On the other hand, the Anyils
could do nothing with the low CELL
ing and ~eontented themselves with
playing a fast floor game. Fisher
starred for the Sayreville boys, maxi
ing eight field goals, with Tuckerson
and Check close behind with four
teen and ten points, respectively. Did
you ever see that combination play
at S~ayreville? CHECK to Tuekerson
to Fisher" 1t sure is q fast trio on
