DUG. MAYJUMP
AT UNION HILL
Championship Meet Labor
Day May Attract Couden.

Another important meet has been
carded for Labor Day. The events
will be run off by Barrett Council
273. Knights Of Columbus, at
Scheutzen Park, Union Hill, for the
A. A. U. championship Of New Jer-
sey. There will be five events in
this meet and all are open to New
Jersey athletes who are registered.
The events are: 100 yard dash, run
ming high jump, one-half mile walk,
one mile run, and twelve pound shot
put.
1t is probable that Dug Couden,
the premier local high Jumper, who
is registered as a New Jersey athlete,
will go to Union Hill. He anticipat-
ed entering the meet at Dongan Hills
Labor Day but he may throw this
aside and enter the Union Hill meet
for state championship.

OLD OFFICIALS
AGAIN HON0RED
MCreery and WiIentz Viii
Serve Riverside Quintet.

John McCreery and David Wilentz,
captain and manager of the River
side basketball team for the last two
seasons, were reelected at a meeting
of the "Rivies'' to act in their for
mel capacities for the coming sea
son. The meeting was held last
night when a complete reorganiza-
ton was undergone. The Riversides
have been under the management Of
McCreery and Wilentz practically
since the first game played and the
success of the city champion basket
ball players is greatly attributed to
their management. No line has yet
been drawn on the players of the
"Rivies" for the coming season ex-
cept that the report that Laurence
Oliver, better known as Luke"
would be in the McCreery camp this
season. Oliver was present at the
meeting last night and was enthusi-
astic over the Riverside chances for
the season. Ais we'll IN the camp
and another successful season Is eX-
pected.
The "Rivtes'' are the first basket
ball players to reorganize and It ts
probable that all the other teams
will follow o The Puritans are
expected to hold a meeting next
week. The Goodwills may follow in
the steps of the Riverside bunch too.
Marion supporters will clamor for a
team this season. The Iroquois
have started the reorganization Of
junior teams and the Oaks, Ashlands
and Y. M. H. A. Jrs. will follow in
short order. Everything looks bright
for a good season, since few of last
seasons stars, if any at all, have left
the city.

C0ODWILLS TO
OPEN SHORTLY
Basketball Quintet Will Or
ganize on September 7.

Activities on the Goodwill court
will begin September 7, but there
will be no basketball games at that
time. The dancing season will be
begun at Goodwill hall on Saturday
night instead of Wednesday nights as
was the case last year. .. Is highly
probable, howover, that the Good
wills will change their dancing nights
to Wednesdays soon after the open
ing. Manager Eddy" Koyen, who
handled the interests of the Good
wills las,l season, stated today that
he was not in touch with club af-
fairs at present and knew little con-
corning the basketball situation. The
Goodwills will probably make a late
start.

Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-08-15

Several sport promoters in this
city are trying to induce city author
tiles to prolong the stay of Frederick
I. Eichbauer, supervisor Of the public
Fairgrounds. Those who have asked
this, believe that the condition OF
sports in this city among the school
athletes as we'll as other athletes in
the city, should be bettered. Mr..
Eichhauer, is without doubt, one of
the best sport authorities In these
parts, and since many realize this,
there is great agitation that he re-
main in the city through the winter
months. It would be useless to doubt
that he could have enough to do
throughout the hours of the day.
One reason why sporting frater-
nifty should clamor for his stay In this
city, is that he would bring about a
successful city basketball league. If
there was enough interest he could
also conduct a factory basketball
league. With Mr.. Eiehbauer as an
authority no one can doubt league
matters would run smoothly. Be-
ing accustomed to the troubles and
necessities of league organization, II
is probable that Mr.. Eichbauer would
be able to conduct the first successful
league even in this city. 1t must be
remembered that there have been
two attempts in this city, for two
successive years, to have a city bas'
ketball league and before the season
was ended, the league would fail, us.
ually due to the lack of organization
If Mr.. Eichbauer stays here
throughout the year instead Of only
several months of vacation which the
school children have, he can also
develop the school athletes, not only
high school, but those Of the gram
mar grades. Football in the higf
schools needs a coach, in fact there
probably will never be football
among Perth Amboy high school stu
dents unless they have a coach. The
athletic association would DO doubt
be willing to give the city a speci'
fled amount towards the paw for 6

Just What Was Ordered

Oscar Widstrand, local man and fore

ON the job with smile that would
have caused the worst sort Of a crouch
or vinegar face to smile just a'little.
He was passing smokes to all mis-
friends. TOO, and following him very
closely, it was possible TO gather from
his ceaseless line of talk that a fine,
big, baby girl had arrived at his house
Sunday morning. Oscar has boy
that is all boy. and all he needed to
complete his happiness was the little
bunch of sweetness that arrived Sun
day morning Both mother and baby
are doing nicely and it is hard 10 tell
which smiles the more. -Mesabi Ore,

over 10000 feet, or approximately
two miles. The place where the III

north of st. Thomas, where the sound
inps indicate 1875 fathoms' or about
four and one third miles. The floor Oh
the basin proper of the Atlantic, at
