Team Will Not Enter on Sc
cond Leg of League
Schedule.
MUCH INDIVIDUAL PLAY
To Oppose Club Aggrsga-
tons in This Vicinity A.
ter February 6.

That the Y. M. H. A. basketball
team has met with little success in
all things considered in the Y. M.
H. A. League was learned from an
interview with DR.. Bernard Feldman,
manager of the local clan. He made
the positive announcement hat his
charge would not enter upon the
second round of games in the league
which, 1t has beer planned, will COM
hence in February, 1913. The first
part Of the league schedule will be
closed February 6 and after that
time, Manager Feldman expects to
lead his team against different club
squads offering suitable guarantees.
As faras w~innt%af@yhe league ace
is concerned, there Is not even a re-
mote chance now; for the local Y. M.
H. A. team is not In the class of their
opponents who hail from much larger
cities, for which reaso they have
the opportunity to pick from a much
larger field of candidates. The New
York branch known as the "92nd
street" boys seem to have the cham
pionship cinched.
There has been no financial sue
cess although no deliberate failure
has been made either.
The team has a loyal band Of root
ers and the aggregation has a quin-
tet Of Woodworking players. Lack Of
team work and passing Is keeping the
local clan from much progress in
sportdom. Individual abilities are the
only things which count in the Y. M.
II. A. teams playing and this calibre
of work Is known as a sure root of
defeat.
Harry Schwartz is the stronghold
of the Perth Amboy Y. M. H. A. team.
His individual work is probably as
good as that of any other player in
these parts. But that does little for
the team in general and incidentally
they participate. "Doc" Feldman
rule, being unable to display the
crackerjack form which he showed
when with the Y. M. II. A. team of
yore. Max Sarokin and Doris are
two live guards although they do not
play a POLISHED" style and because
Of the lack Of teamwork, are unable
to do anything of great amount.
However, it is believed hat when the
Y. M. H, A. team will finish their
league schedule and will commence
to feel the rivalry with the club
teams in this vicinity they will then
get down to work and finally find
themselves among the top-notchers.
Those who in a great measure control
basketball activities in these parts
wish the Y. M. II. A. team will for
many reasons, n of which is that
some real rivalry will be manufac-
tured if this crew shows calibre.

PARISH HOUSE
HERE TONIGHT

Much is at stake tonight for both
teams who will clash on the Audi
forum court in the basketball attrac-
ton Of the evening. The Iroquois,
who have turned a new leaf and are
showing much improved and more
intelligent form in ba~sketballdom
will stack their true strength against
the Parish House quintet, of Wood
bridge. If the "Redskins" score a
victory, the Woodbridge clan will be
checked in their climb towards the
topnotchers in senior ranks. The
1roquois promise to make a bid for
senior circles themselves soon and
but a few victories such as one
against the Parish House tossers and
n like that scored last week
against the A. B. c. quintet will en-
title them to entrance into the
ranks of seniordom-although not in
a position where they should be
stacked up against the "Rivies."
With SO much depended upon in
the tussle tonight, both crew will
battle their hardest every moment
and lively doings will result. Wand

cracks will be on the job while

Crowd Witnesses Fray.
FINAL TALLY IS 1912

Before about fifty enthusiastic
rooters the South End Club basket
ball team triumphed over the Den A.
C.. crew on the Roessler court last
night by a 1912 score Referee Van
Mulchahey was eleventh man in the
battle last night which afforded SO
much interest and amusement to the
crowd of spectators present. The
fray was speedy and at times farci-
cal. Until the last five minutes of
play the South Ends held the lead,
but for about five minutes during the
closing chapter the Dens scared
above their elder opponents by one
point, the tally then being 1911, but
when the South Enders dropped the
sphere through the net for their thir-
teenth counter the whistle blew for
the time OUT call and j. Scott
Burns's band had won.
The Dens played a classy game in
passing and handling the ball. How
ever, they were weak in foul shooting
in the early part Of the contest. The
South End team seemed able to con-
quer because they went at their tasks
with a rush and dash which netted
them most Of their points. Frank

guarded under his basket and the
ball was passed to him he would

first and then at forward. while
Addie Schantz. erstwhile Burns's

specfnl to the EVENING NEWS.

~Sayreville, Dec. 27.-On Monday
night the Hassans made a fearful at
tempt to scalp the Red Skins of the
Sayreville Bowling League, taking
two out of three games. A large
crowd was in attendance each team
having about an equal number OF
rooters and they certainly made some
noise.
The Hassans tried hard to take
three straight and if they had it
would have landed them in first
berth.
However, the Hassans are due to
run ahead in the very near future
for the reason that they are sche-
duled to play the Oaks cellar

Men have no game scheduled until
the 81, which no doubt will be b

Owing to repairs being made to
