WOODBRIDGE HIGH FOR
A BASKETBALL LEAGUE

/ South River has for the last few
seasons been represented by a quintet
and will no doubt enter the organiza-
ton proposed by Woodbridge. Last
season, the Riverites gave several
classy exhibitions on the local courts
against the crimson and white squad
and because of this showing, it 10
likely that South River will be one
of the tiVes to put in an appearance
at the first meeting Of the league.
New Brunswick has a team which
would probably be near first place If
she decided to enter. 1t must be re-
membered that the county seat high
school athletes have fewer restric-
tons than the Woodbridge or Perth
Amboy athletes and for that reason
should be able to have a strong rep
resentative team. Perth Amboy and
Woodbridge, two rivals, will no doubt
be among the first to show their
eagerness in the formation of a bas-
ketball league.
Manager MacElroy, of the Wood
bridge school, will send out notices
for the meeting of the league and II
enough are represented at the first
meeting, a schedule may be compiled
at the first session of the managers.
The rules of the league will proba-
bly, be the same as those which gov
erned the baseball league of the Mid
dlesex county high school teams.
All the officials of last years
league are requested to be on hand
September 81. The managers who
come to the meeting are also asked
to attend ready to make out their

of the fray Sunday, he reached first

bition than South River did Sunday
that Driscoll's crew will be taken by
surprise and handed a lacing. That
Atkinson's bunch mean to win and
believe they will win is shown by the
defiant attitude and the confident
spirit they nave assumed.
There is one thing about the game
between the Athletics and the New
Brunswickers which will make it a
much better attraction than the bat
tie between the Driscoll crew and
the South Riverites and this thing Is
that Pop" O'Toole will have no
ringers" There will be no padding

illness sets in. Every fan in South

that they have a classy team and not

III iAN w
Because of the New Brunsw1ckers
victory over South River Sunday af-
| ternoon Dave Driscoll has steered his
clan Of baseball tossers out or the
| path of the other baseball mines OF
Middlesex county and 1t ts probable
that no other team from these parts
| Will rave In the direction of the coun
ty seat aggregation. The college
town squad is one Of the class1est
mines that ever represented any city
in this county. Besides having a
twtrler, who Is a tower of strength
on the mound, Driscoll has eight
, other men who show such classy ex-
! hibitions that many fans are wonder
ing why several of them are not in
the "big circles"
Manager Miller, Of the South River
baseball nine, had a combination
against the county seat squad which
Ia no doubt as good as anw other
, crew OF nine players In the county.
| Matthews, who halls from Trenton
and Is a Tri-State slab artist showed
real class In every stage of the fray.
He Is a twirler Of "Artie" Romer's
style, although he Is not a port SIDE
singer. Eight hits were collected
| off his delivery, but with an outfield
and infeld like Driscoll behind him,

played with the South Riverites. One

In the fifth inning brought the crowd
up with applause. So 1t can De
easily reasoned that If South River
with several additions to their make
up-and classy additions at that
could not come close to New Bruins
wick, what show would any other
nine in the county have? The mighty
Harry Apologize, the husky Atkinson
and also the clever Kinsulla cannot
be judged better than Matthews.
In fact, 1t would be giving them the
better of the argument If they were
classed on an equal with Trenton's
"Matty."
South River and New Brunswick
are carded to play a five game series.
That South River Is satisfied to play
the county seat nine is not doubted.
It would be safe to say that Millers
clan are only too anxious to meet
the Driscoll crew again, but this
time on the formers diamond. II
the college town team does give the
South Riverites another chance,
thsre'll be no betting from their
corner. Driscol1's team is considered
too classy and the only thing@that l
think South River can do In playing
New Brunswick is to show how close
her favorites can come to the Dris-
coll teams.

Designating the strength which
Dave Driscoll's team showed against
South River Sunday, and terming
it only as zone of New Brunswick's
best days and "one of South Rivers
worst days" Manager BILLY O'Toole
of the Athletics, has started some in
teresting doings. The South Amboy
crew has shown such avowed deter
mination to meet and defeat the col
lege town squad that the county seat
moguls have finally decided to give
them a chance and see what brand of
ball they can show the New Bruins
wickers. Driscoll states he wants to
see how close the Athletics can come
to his favorites' score. The game
will be staged on the Amusement
Park diamond in New Brunswick

President Luce Says Cars Will be
Running to Hutchinson Before
Snow Files in 1913.

John Westerdahl, right of way
agent, and j. H. Thomas, superin-
tendent Of construction, spent last
Tuesday with Mayor W. S. Clay
in an automobile driving over the
northern portion Of the county max
ing careful inspection Of two
proposed routes for the Minneapolis
Electric Short Line Railway across
the county westward from Winsted
village.
One route on which stand the
preliminary survey made last sum-
mer, takes a pretty straight course
westward after leaving Winsted
until striking the Bear Lake country
through which it must necessarily
be very crooked, and this is true of
the line as it runs past Lake Hook
and south Of Belle and Cedar Lakes.
Mr.. Thomas is a gentleman standing
high in railway circles of the coun-
try and has back Of him an expert
ence Of % years as locator Of lines.
He pronounced this line impractical
BILE and one extremely costly to con-
struct, being nearly 20 mile stretch
of cuts and fills. After traversing
the line via. Silver Lake and Hutch
inson he declared emphatically that
the north route was not to be con-
sidered and it was definitely an
nounced that the south route would
be adopted and surveying crews or
dered out upon it in the near future.
The line will come into Hutchin-
son via the ravine on the Stocking
place in the northeastern part of the
city, follow along the fiat parallel
ing the Acoma road to a crossing of
the north arm of Otter Lake north
Of the grade, and will then take a
northwesterly course across the
southwest corner of Acoma town
ship. The depot in Hutchinson will
be located somewhere east Of the
pumping station, and the line will
probably require the removal Of the
German Baptist church providing
of course that the road is built in
to Hutchinson as is now planned.
