RED MEN HOLD
LEAD IN RACE
IN SAYREV|LLE
Hassans, Who Are Second,
to Battle With Leaders
Monday Night.
FIGHT FOR ALL BERTHS
Special to tho EVENING NEWS.

special 20 tH0 ~ NEVS. @
~Sayreville, Dec. 21:-The Sayre-
vile Bowling League. games OF which
are being played at Pops alleys,
have about completed their first
round Of the schedule, each team
playing t~wenty-one games, with the
exception Of the Corner Gang, who
failed to put in an appearance for
their game with the Yankees and
postponed their game with the Oaks,
making but eighteen games played
for the latter two, while the Oaks
played but fifteen. According to a
statement Of Mr.. Popp the postponed
games would be rolled before Christ
mas, but that seems impossible, as
according to the second leg of the
schedule other teams will occupy the
alleys on Monday and Tuesday nights
of next week. However, they will
have to be squeezed In in some way
in the near future.
The Cubans took three straight
last night and still hold third place.
The Red Men have been in the
lead since the beginning of the
league, the Hassans being their most
deadly foes, following closely on
their heels. Monday night these two
teams meet and from present indica-
tons the Red Skins will be scalped.

|ROQUO|S TRIM
A. B. G.. SQUAD
IN EASY STYLE
Redskins Show Up In Much
Improved Style and
Win Battle.
FINAL TALLY IS 1913

All this "they can't come back"
stuff, never did agree with the ana
tony of the Iroquots and their lead
er Big Chief Payne or even their
clever coach, Mr.. John Deegan. And
just to express their sentiments in
more than mere terms, the Redskin
tossers walked out upon the Audi
torium court last night and neatly
trimmed the A. B. C. Club quintet
which has been putting up some fine
strong opposition. The victory
speaks much not only for the team
but for Manager Payne and Coach
Deegan.
1t was a noticeable change that
could be seen in the tactics Of the
Iroquois, who did little or no long
shooting which raj formerly their
strongest factor and at the same time
a great weakness. This is a peek
into the workings OF Deegan who
has impressed upon the young minds
Extraordinarily speaking, the, the
Importance of passing and close at.
tack under the basket. Manager
Payne Is much enthused over the
splendid showing OF each end every
one of his warriors and to say that
he expects his favorites to trim the
Flying Five soon, is merely reading
his face-for that long and Injun
like smile beams upon his counter
ance as soon as the big gone Is
thought Of.
Captain John Anderson, OF the A.
B. C. quintet, showed his faith In
Johnny Deegan, who is coach OF the
%Iroquois, when he requested him to
refree the battle. Deegan consented
and kept the game clean and salts
factory from every standpoint. He
called 8 dozen fouls against his pro-
teges and four against Anderson's
clan.

IN T01TENV|LLE
AFTER BOOKING
Already Are Carded ito Meet
S. r. H. S.--Issue Def to All
.Lassies in Basketba!Idom.
ASK GAME IN THIS CITY

Softly the call from the shores OF
Staten Island whisper the following
tunes-so sweet to basketball fandom
at this time of the year: Tottenville
has a fair sex quintet, which is
ready to meet all teams of high
school calibre. The aggregation of
lassies who comprise this combina-
ton, who are now, under the man
agership of Frank Lehman, seeking
games, are known to fandom as the
Westfeld Five. Now, who will
speak first for as the old and much
abused adage reads. First come
first served"
South River high school has been
fortunate in booking the islanders
for a game which will be staged on
the Washington Park court in the
burg up-county ways next Saturday
afternoon. 1t is with teams of the
class and calibre Of South River high
that the Westfields wish to encount-
er.
Within the broad and sweeping
def which they hurl at all teams in
these diggings Is enclosed a minor
challenge against the Perth Amboy
high school maidens and those rep
r%esenting Woodbridge high. The
Pearist~>II4House girls and the Other
aggregations in Woodbridge also
have a chance to book the knights
of the kitchen" from Tottenville for
a game.
Being the only crew of l~ass1es.
which Tottenville boasts. the team
has a considerably large following SO
that should teams in this vicinity
give them games, they would be con-
tracing a good financial proposition
as we'll as a good basketball game.
When the Islanders travel to South
River next, Saturday, they will be
chareroned.
Those who comprise the makeup
are: Misses Helen Whitehurst, Eve
lyn Hoehn. Carrie and Jennie VIM
capaw, and Olga Juhl.

South Amboy, Dec. 21:-Dolan

riors will once more invade this burg
tonight, but whether or not the locals
will be able to once more put them

doubted by many-most of these the
Seaside rooters, who will accompany
their favorites tonight. With
Krumppe at the pivot, Mcintyre and
Hennessey at forwards, and Solheim
and Price at guards, they have a
crack combination. AS the O'Toole-

is every reason to believe a good

Beethoven wa born In a small house
in Bonn. His father had inherited the
vice Of drinking, and often Beethoven
and his younger brother were obliged
to take their intoxicated father home.
He was never known to utter an un
kind word about the man who made
his youth so unhappy, and h0 eve
failed to resent it when n third person
spoke uncharitably Of his fathers
frailty. Young Beethoven was thus
taught many a severe lesson In the
bard school Of adversely. but his trials
were not without advantage to him.
They gave to his character that Iron
texture which upheld him under his
b~a viest hrrdpns.

LYING
LOW FOR "CHAMPS'

One of the most glorious Of vic
tories that W. fell in the camp of
the city champion basketball team
and let us whisper to you that many
have fallen there-was the T. A. c.
Riverside battle on the Auditorium
court last Friday. Not n "kick"
was registered or is being made by
the players Of the island aggregation
Or it's followers. But when you ask
them what they think of the result
they add: "Wait until January A."
That is when the locals journey into
the T. A. c. domain and what Lar
kin's crew do not expect to do to the
boys from this side is not worth
while mentioning. Yes, the River
side fan has a different story.

not saying much about the game, but
