champions Wednesday night.
"Rivies" to Rest.
Manager Wilentz has ordered q
period of rest for his boys and they
will not appear in basketball togs
teams take their practice prelimi-
nary to the game. Wand is at pres
ent on the hospital list, but is ex-
pected to be on the job Wednesday
night. The Riversides are not dis
tressed at his absence from their
ranks because of the classy form
which McCreery showed at the pivot
Saturday night. Mac" or Dunham
may be sent to the pivot Schwartz
has undoubtedly improved wonder
fully since these aggregations met
on the first occasion and Is expect
ed to be the main factor In his
teams makeup. Just the same the
city champions believe that Nc
Creery, Dunham or Wand can hold
him down. They maintain that
Wand did 1t in the last game, that
McCreery did 1t in one game,
and that Dunham performed the feat
in South Amboy in the early part
of the season. However, the Puritan
admirers contend that on each oc-
casion, except in the first Puritan
Riverside battle, Schwartz was play
ing with a much weaker team. AT
any rate, the throttle will be an i'm
portant position and the usual anx-
iety about "Who Will Be Who,"
still reigns in regard to the center
job.
That Eddie Regan, the dark-hair,
ed radical youngster, will again be
sent into action, seems certain,
Regan made a good showing In the
last fray between the two squads
and his playing of late also entities
him to another chance. Durham s
performance In the last few River
side battles would make one feel
that he should be sent into action.
Allen Is certain Of his Job and
Burns will In all probability be
worked as his side-kink Schwartz,
Deegan and Sullivan, the three To-
cal men In the Puritan ranks, are
sure of berths for Wednesday night.
The forward positions will probably
be taken by any two Of the follow
ing, who are the cream Of the coun-
ty: Charlie Crabiel, Fred Garland,
Jimmy Armstrong, Jimmy CANTON,
Hank Thomas and Mike Smith.

PUR|TANS TO HAVE SURPRISE
FOR R|VERS|DES WEDNESDAY
FAST BA AYONNE
HAMPIONS BOW
TO RIVERSIDES

SO formidable were the Riversides
Saturday night that the Point A. c..
of Bayonne, although strengthened
by the appearance of Sammy Curran
by 3428 score on the Auditorium
court. The battle was the third and
decisive fray of series between the
aggregations and incidentally the
first series which has been dropped
by the Bayonne team, who claim the
championship of their burg.
McCreery was sent to the pivot,
Regan and Durham placed as for
wards and Allen and Burns at the
guard positions. Every man in the
locals lineup was outweighed. But
the Riversides seemed especially
strong Saturday night in passing and
also were easily able to locate the
center of the shreds. The visitors
were strengthened by the appearance
of Sammy Curran at center. Cur
rams praises are sung by many in up
state circles and he was expected to
do the clean up work for the Bay
onne crowd. However In McCreery
as an opponent he found enough to
handle to keep him busy on the
guard instead of taking the offen-
sive side of the argument. Mac"
played a strong game against Curran
and Gagged the sphere four times
while his huskier opponent made the
shreds whistle but once while shoot
ing from the field. Curran showed
classy form in his foul shooting miss
ing few opportunities.

MAURER STARS
MEET DEFEAT

Strengthened by the appearance Of
McCreery and Allen, Of the River
sides, the Maurer Stars managed to
defeat the Sewaren A. c. quintet on
the Boynton Stars court yesterday af-
ternoon by 1897 odds. The Sewar-
en- team showed class from begin
ming to the end and gave a great ex-
hibition. However the work of the
Riversides duo was little too much
f. the Sewaren lads, who fought
gamely throughout the clash Allen
played guard and Mac" performed
as forward. McCreery scored 'steen
field goals and then some.

"Cull Durham showed rare form
in the fray Saturday night He was
pitted against Coughlin, who is the
man that spelled defeat to the locals
in their last game. Dunham was on
the go every minute and managed to
outpIay as well as outwit his clever
and veteran opponent, who has been
the hero of many a battle.
Coughlin, although a guard, is US
ually an important scoring factor for
his team. However Saturday night
Dunham tailed three field goals
against him while Coughlin did not
score once. The veteran Bayonne
pellet singer made one deuce count
er in the last few minutes of play
while opposed to Burns. The pass
ing of the visitors was feature of
the contest.

Second Clash Of Series Attracting
Unusual Interest throughout Mid
dIeSex and Monmouth Counties
CITY CHAMPS AWAIT BATTLE

All possible means of cementing
the Puritan players into combina-
tion which will be too formidable
for the Riversides is being made by
the management and most ardent
supporters of "Our Forefathers. .
The Puritans and the city champions
will clash on Wednesday night,
when the big guns will go off under
the direction of Van Muichahey
and Clancy, the two best referees
In Middlesex county. In fact, ev-
erything which will be used will be
the best in Middlesex, including the
players and referees, as well as the
court.
According to the attitude of the
Puritan supporters as well as sew
eral prominent men on the inside OF
the workings Of this aggregation,
"Our Forefathers'' will have q sur
prise to spring on the locals In the
battle Wednesday night. The game
will be the second of very import
ant series, the first of which was
annexed by the Riversides. This
battle, If won by the city ch@m-
pions, will mean the end of the
series. On the other hand a vic
tory for the Puritans will mean a
third and decisive fray. For this
reason, the Puritan management,
team, followers, and supporters, are
wasting all energy in doping out a
method to procure combine which
will turn the tables on the River
sides. The surprise may be the ap-
pearance of Jimmy Canton in togs.
However, there is no foundation to
the report that he will play. But
q surprise there will be and 1t will
probably be seen in the lineup of
the Puritans.
Advice About Betting.
Those who are most prominent In
the Riverside ranks are advising
that their followers place no bets
until the teams get on the floor.
This alone proves that the city
champions expect a surprise. The
supporters of the "Rivies" admit
that CANTON will be an improvement
to the Puritan team, but claim that
the locals can trim the Puritans
with anything In their lineup that
