OAKS DEFEATED
BYS0MERSETS
IN CLOSE FRAY
Clean and Fast Battle Ends
24--21--First Half Re-
suits a. "a.

Clean, fast and brilliant, the battle
between the Oaks and the Somersets
on the formers court last night
proved the best fray yet staged in
Kozusko Hall this year. From the
minute Referee Joe Plass gave the
wal signal until the last down in the
final half, the two aggregations were
fighting ~nip-and-tuck and only the
gong after the last period decided the
winner, for each squad vas taking
turns at leading in the score and
when the flag of truce was waved it
happened to be the visitors turn to
lead.
There is no doubt that the Somer-
set boys are deserving Of the victory
for their passing was of the best or
der and they worked like Trojans
every moment of the tussle. The
Oaks also tried hard and were in the
game at every stage. That the battle
was the fastest seen up North Amboy
way was heard from all corners.
Coleman dropped several "beauts"
through the ring in the first half,
while Cant came to the rescue in the
period. Steadle was here,
there and everywhere, while Wilmot
Gagged the sphere at critical moments.
Manley held his opponent to an even
score.
Mike Smith and Bill Eagen showed
for the losers, figuring in every
play and scoring most of the points.
Here are the lineups:
Oaks (24) Somersets (21)
Cant

Eagen Coleman

some of the supposed championship

ANT H0NYS
TO HAVE
QUARTERS

With a neat sum realized from
heir fourth annual ball, which was
no doubt one of the most successful
affairs of its nature, the Saint An
thony Baseball Club is ready to do
something for the winter. Because
many members of the popular organ
ization have been complaining of the
fact that the association has no club
rooms despite the fact that the treas
ury can almost equal that of the best
bank in this country, the officials
have become busy and it is now GER
tain that the bunch will have quar-
tiers for the winter.
Where rooms will be hired is some
thing which is pulling those in
charge at present. But the Saints are
determined to get headquarters and
their determination means something.
1t is planned to furnish the rooms
which will be hired in elaborate style
and to buy a piano SO that enjoyment
may be had at any time. A pool
table may also be purchased and a
tournament in the green cloth sport
started.

SUFFERS
DEFEAT

With an enthusiastic audience
cheering them On, the members of
the local Y. NJ. H. A. were able to
hold the lead until the last stages of
the contest with the Brownsville
league contenders but they finally
lost out by a 33 to % score. Harry
Schwartz, of the locals, was the only
tosser who did anything that made
the Perth Amboy bunch look like
champions.
1t was a hard battle to lose mas
much as the locals were ahead for
the greater part of the fray. But
this defeat does by no means kill the
chances Of Doe Feldman's aggre-
cation in the league.
Referee Harris, an A. A. U. official,
worked in great style as eleventh
man. IIober, of the visitors, held
his own against Schwartz, which is
saying something these days.

NEPTUNES NOT
IN SOUTH RIVER

That the Neptunes and South River
A. A. quintet will not meet again on
the Washington Park court Is prac-
tically an assured fact, according to
the managementAof the South River
quintet. The reason given Is hal the
Neptunes, since they did not finish
either game in which they started on
the South River teams court, have
incurred the disfavor OF the fandom
from Jim Blacks town..
On both occasions the South River
team was ahead and while the mar
gin was no a big one, 1t was no
doubt sufficient to get away with the
fray, according to South River fan
dom. The fans from that burg want
to see whole games and not parts.

~Sayreville, Nov. 22:-Without Nc
Creepy and Tuckerson in their midst
the Sayreville basketball quintet
were unable to cope. with the speed
and class shown by the Seaside ag-
gregation, of Staten Island, last
night on the local court. The final
tally was Al to 2S. There was moth
ing to it but Seaside throughout the
battle. In the first half the Staten
Island crew simply ran away from
the locals, the score at the end of
that period being 81 to 8. In the
second administration the Check ag-
gregation seemed to survive but they
had lost so much ground in the first
half that the game had been stored
on ice.
Smith, of the locals, was the only
one that could do much and he was
pitted against the lanky AL. Mcintyre
at that. Smith dropped seven field
goals through the net while his OPP
ponent did the same thing. Hennes-
sey, Of the winners, did much for the
victors, caging the pellet eight times.
The Seasides were all class and the
locals did not seem to be in the
game enough worthy of mention.
Here are the lineups:
