AWAIT INTER
CLASS SERIES
Sophomore Elect Captain and
Manager Rivalry.

With the advent Of baseball into
the activities of the high school, the
boys are beginning to consider the
chances Of the different class teams
in the coming inter-class series
esting events In the schools history
each year..
Ever since the team representing
the class OF IL, which was cap
tanned by Joe Coley and the team
Of the class of II c~aptained by Scott
Burns, battle in style "a la rivalry"
the inter-class series In baseball Is
always awaited with much Joy.
1t is too early to size up the
strength Of the respective aggrega-
tions which will soon start preparing
for the series that will decide the
championship among the classes.
However. just at present. the teams
seem to be very evenly matched. In
the Senior ranks are several OF the
players OF last seasons varsity,
while In the Juniors ranks a be
spied such faces as those who have
been noted for baseball prowess in
years past. The Sophomores also
have a classy bill with such men as
Calvin and Dametsch. while the
Freshmen seem well fortified too,
having Eddie Flynn as one OF their
tossers.
None OF the class teams have start
ed to practice as yet since only
varsity workouts will be allowed
for several weeks to come. How
ever. captains and managers are be-
ing chosen and interest is budding
out into rivalry.
Some OF the classes have yet to
choose their leaders. At a meeting
yesterday afternoon. the Sopho-
mores elected Leo ~Goldberger as
their captain and Percival Quacken-
bush as manager. Leo knows much
about the game and should prove a
successful captain, while Quacken-
bush has shown his calibre at the
helm, having been captain of the
''Sophs'' in basketball.
Manager Q~uackenbush expects to
keep his boys OF the go very much
this season since he has already COM
menced to book games.

is known to all the tossers who fire.
quent the Auditorium.
At the head Of the whole crew Is
James Mccormick. known to many
as plain John D. or "Micky." Nc
| Cormick is the Auditorium Ground
keeper and is responsible for the
fine condition Of the place.
Going one step further into the
Auditorium, you will not fail to spy
Ned Farrel-the Jester Of the spac-
ious amusement place, for was 1t
not he who so cleverly answered.
what do you mean?" when asked
care you working?"
Then there Is Peter O'Toole, now
acquiring fame as Pot" Pete was
once the groundkeeper Of the place
but has changed his fortunes. He Is
now an artist, being a classy sign
painter. If you should chance to
stroll along some broad avenue and
you should behold a large sign with
the signature "Pot" painted at the
bottom-that's Pete's job.
In every place of this nature there
are, of course, a band of white homes.
And In this class are: Tommy"
FITZGERALD, "Mid~ey" Burns, Francis
Mullen, and Willard Woerner. Each
one practices basketball from the
moment someone, who has nerve en-
ough to ask for the ball and gets it,
gives it to them until the doors of
the Auditorium Is closed each day.
These laddies do not expect to be
future greats" but world beaters.'
Sometimes they are pitted against
the Riversides in practice session and
from my discoveries. l learn that
they claim a victory ove the city
champions. And what is more, I
believe them.
Be 1t as It may, 1t will not at all
be surprising II in later years you
should hear Of one of the Auditor
ium SQUAD as being the best of 'em
all either as a roller skater or as a
basketball player.

Jimmy H'vsigh and Eddie
Stanton for Ten Rounds In
Final Bout.
YOUNG LEvINS TO BOX
Kid Friedman in Action Too
Several Island Boys to
Box In %PreIiminaries

Dopists have given up in despair!
Who will win the bout tonight be-
tween Eddie Stanton, the lightweight
OF this city and Jimmy McVeigh, the
clever boy from Newark, is ome
thing which no unbiased dOpist has
yentured to answer in the form of a
prediction. Be it as it may, while
the abilities OF the two factors in
the main bout cannot be weighed so
as to finally give the fans a chance
to figure on a winner, everyone ex-
poets to see a good fight, since both
fe~atherweights are supposed to be
the best in the business in their
class.
The bout between Stanton and
McVeigh is carded to go ten roo Is
and we believe it will last the ten,
judging only from the reputation OF
the two.
Not only is the main ARRAY a
classy attraction, but In the semi
final two lads Of experience and
cleverness will meet. Young Levins.
Of New Brunswick, and Kid Bright,
of Newark, are the NIT artists card
ed to meet in the semi-windup of
six rounds. Bright and Levins have
won several bouts at the Richmond
and many believe that the Newark
lad will give the Middlesex boy a
hard milling.
Three four round preliminaries
have also been slated. Kid Fried
man, of New Brunswick, who showed
up in such strong fashion at the
Permo A. A. bouts, has been booked
to meet some fast boy in his class.
Young Pete Byrnes, Of this city,
and Young White, of Tottenville.
have been carded to meet in another
preliminary. Young Mack, of New
ark, and Kid Burns, of Stapleton, S.
l., are the two to meet in the third
"prelim" according to the nounc
ment of the management.
Matchmaker McNulty has prepar
ed this all star card for tonight be-
cause the bouts at the last stag were
disappointing and he is intent upon
giving the patrons of the Totem
vile club a good deal" for their
coin.

TOM BARRY TO
LEAD HUCUENOT
Elected Manager William
Hennessey Chosen Captain

Thomas Barry was elected mana
ger of the Huguenot baseball team
at a meeting held last night in
Huguenot. William Hennessey was
chosen to act as captain. The candi-
dates for the baseball team were en-
thusiastic over the prospects for the
coming season as reviewed at the
session held last night.
While the Huguenots have not
been world beaters" in seasons past,
they have always managed to make
a fine showing and have therefore
received good support.
The Huguenot team Will open Its
season In Tottenville either on April
10 or April 26. There has always
been sectional rivalry between the T..
A. C. and Huguenot baseball teams
and for this reason Manager Shea
has booked the Huguenot boys to ap-
pear first.
Manager Barry will fit his men
out with new uniforms for the season
and will soon give the first call for
practice.

With THE CROWD

Some bouts at the Richmond to-
night. III see you at the ringside.
Philip Payne, OF the Iroquois, ia
now employed in Elizabeth. But the
Redskin leader comes home every
night to watch over his Injuns.
The St. Anthonys are making little
noise just at present. but when the
season opens they expect to let the
big guns shoot of.
The high school baseball nine
needs a coach.
Why not get Johnny Hunt. Mana
ger Garretson?
Yes, the Riversides and Puritans
will play again.
Little one, c. Mason and I received
your cards, but having no nom de
plume attached, we fed them to the
waste basket.
The Tiger Juniors, of Woodbridge,
have halted activities in basketball
for the rest of the season. Yes, the
Owl Juniors trimmed them several
times.
Just at this time of the year when
we would like to point to some classy
athlete with P. A. H. S. tackled on
his back, we are forced to think of
Douglas Grant Couden, who Is now
of California.
Jimmy Armstrong, captain Of the
South River basketball team, put the
blame for the loss of the Sterling
Michelin game to the great playing
of Klein, of Trenton.
Bill Reynolds may be seen with
the Puritans in their next game
against the Riversides.
There is no stopping the Seasides.
The islanders have annexed fourteen
straight.
I wonder whether the weather
mar expects to stay On his vacation
for the rest of the year. Snow today,
rain tonight, bright, arm and sunny
yesterday. and probably freezing to-
morrow. TED.

OPPOSE T. A. C.
On K. of P. Court Tomorrow
Night Much Interest.

Charlie Crabiel's aggregation Of
Midtown tossers will invade Totem
vile tomorrow night where 1t Is ex-
pected one Of the best games of the
season will be played. The Niche
Inns have been going at break neck
speed and expect to keep up their
fast pace despite the fact that they
will be pitted against 80 fast a COM
bine and on Island soil too. The
Michelins turned the trick on the T.
A. c. when these teams battled the
last time and the Larkin band are
anxious to even matters up.

ALL STAR CARD
FOR RICHMOND
STAG TONIGHT
PURITANS WILL
PLAY SEASIDES
Fast Fray on Island Court
Tomorrow Night.

Because OF a cancellation by the
Point A. C. team, of Dayonne, the
Seaside basketball team will not OPP
pose that crew but will instead line
up against the P~uritans, of this city.
Manager Joseph Mullen has agreed
to stack his favorites against the
island clan on the Seasides court to-
morrow night. This game will help
to prepare the Puritan team for
their coming game with the River
sides which will be played On the
Auditorium court in a few weeks.
Manager Mullen believes that a few
games for his clan before they clash
with the Riversides will cement his
combine into a strong aggregation
formidable enough to trim anything
In these parts.

P. A. H. S. FIVE
NEED PRACTICE
For Third League Game With
Woodbridge School.

Now that there is every likelihood
that the Perth Amboy high school
five and the Woodbridge high school
quintet will meet In a third and de-
cisive game this season, both man.
ayers are beginning to build up
strength in their respective combina-
tions. Manager MacElroy, of the
w. H. s.. tossers, has little to do in
this respect since his boys have been
practicing and playing throughout
the weeks past.
However this has not been the
good fortune Of the crimson band,
who have not been practieing or
playing for several weeks. The
locals are no doubt off color, because
of this and Manager Eggert will have
to get busy to proure practice place
for his aggregation.
The Perth Amboy schoolboys have
already begun baseball practice and
1t Is for this reason that basketball
is being considered a side issue at
this time OF the year. However ev-
cry fan In this burg wants the Grim
son quintet to trim Woodbridge In
the decisive battle of the year and
1t is up to the locals to get into
proper condition.
