For Hudson County TitIe.

For HUDSON county Title.
Dickinson High School and ST.
Peters College will grapple on Satur-
day at West Side Park, Jersey City,
in the eleventh annual battle for
the championship of Hudson county.
This seasons contest Is likely to be
the closest in years, as Dickinson
has been scored upon but once, that
occasion being in last Saturdays
game with Railway High School. De-
spite the splendid record of its rival,
st. Peters is an even choice, as past
performances are being disregarded
in the preparation for this game.
Head Coach Burke and his corps,
Doherty, McGuiness and Egan, the
last a former Holy Cross star, are
drilling the men hard in anticipation
of victory. On Thanksgiving Day
st. Peters will meet It's ancient rival,
Seton Hail. The South Orangites
have not played the Jersey eleven in
two years. The last game was won
by st. Peters, 35 to 0. defeat that
still rankles at South Orange.
Brown Stars to Come Here.
Raymond L. Smith, Gustav Tobel-
man and George Williamson. former
swimming team captains at Barrin-
ger High School and now aquatic
stars at Brown University, are to
again splash in local waters on the
evening of Saturday, December 81,
at the Newark Y. M. c. A. The Prov
idence College trio of watermen are
to be the stellar attraction of
Parents night exhibition, and Will
appear in the company of Henry
Hauser, Charles Mum, Howard
Num-, Walter Cummings and others
of the crack swimming teams that
represented the Halsey street insti-
tuition in bygone days.
Last Game for South Side.

clude its football season on Friday,

NEW BASKETBALL |
LEAGUE PLANNED
Interstate Organization Win
Bar Ali Rough Tactics
from Contests.
TO REVIVE PUBLIC INTEREST

Plans are under way for the forma-
tion of a new basketball organiza-
ton. to be known as the New Jersey
and Connecticut League, and which
will comprise teams from Harrison,
Paterson. Hoboken, all of this State,
and Norwalk. Stamford and Dam
bury. of Connecticut. The Harrison
Big Five will represent Harrison, the
Troy Five win be the Hoboken en-
try while the American Five will
have the support of silk City basket
ball followers.
The idea of the proposed league Is
to have basketball put on a basis
that viii eliminate the rough
tactics commonly employed by ouin-
tets of this vicinity. The game, BY
the way. Is not played hereabouts as
it should be. More interest would be
the outcome. and the contests would
probably attract larger crowds, il the
teams displayed better basketball.
that is-if they lived up to the strict
ruling of the game. II the league
plan goes through 1t will insure the
followers of the game better con-
tests in this section, with the trough
stuff" completely barred.
Demars Fail Down.
Although they were looked upon TO
give the Entire Nouis Five. of Harri-
son, a real battle, as in their previous
game, the Demar quintet did not show
up to expectations last night. They
were beaten, 30 to 3s, and were out
played from the start. At half-time
the West Hudson Auditorium crew
was in the lead by % points to a. The
remarkable goal eaging of Wallv
| Kussmaul, Johnny McGuigan and
Marty Kavanagh was a feature. The
| former had nine field Baskets Nc
CURE was there with one less, while
Kavanagh succeeded in getting the
| leather spheroid through the iron
| rim six times. Johnny Biegner, of the
Harrison Big Five. divided the game
with Willie Michigan for the Harri-
son five, and got In two field goals
Larry Pagan had one, as did the
younger McGuigan. The ability OF
Krause to shoot field baskets saved
the evening for the visitors. He had
no less than ten counts, which netted
his team twenty points. Moller, his
partner at forward, got five goals from
| the field, Ryan had three, while Splin-
| der Gagged one.

Barringer High School VS. South
Side High School, at City Athletic
Field.
Since East Oranges downfall at
Peddie the football situation at Bar
ringer has taken an optimistic turn.
Coach Broadhead and the others In
terested in the Barringer prospects
that viewed the game at Hightstown
are strong in their conviction that
Barringer has an even chance with
East Orange on Thanksgiving Day.
The chief of the Blue and White
football forces asserted that he had
been troubled all season with the
quality of his ends, but at last they
had begun to round into form, and
with the seasoning that they are to
get In the remaining games with
Pennington and South Side, Ten Eyck,
Searles and Schaaf should make a
creditable showing against Taylor
and Fischer in the annual clash. Van
Ness, whose ankle has been off since
the Peddie game, is about again and
may again get into harness on the
holiday. Barringer is now an even
choice for the turkey day contest, as
the Ridge streeters put up far
stronger resistance to the onslaughts
of the Hightstowners than did the
suburbanites. Peddie won the game
with Barringer, played at the City
Athletic Field, by score of 81 to 0.
Even then the result was the reward
of the quick seizure of opportunities
rather than the. outcome of an in
ability to cope with the strong line
plunges of Peddie. Perhaps the
Hightstowners were not aware of the
weakness of the Barringer ends, but
it is fact that Dempsey and Van
Ness, who played the TANKS during
the greater part of the contest did
much better work than Taylor and
Fischer accomplished in Saturdays
game. The East Orange extremes
went to Hightstown with a reputa-
ton of the best, but proved inefficient
in their attempts to check the Peddie
progress around the extremes.

SCHOOLS OF GRANT
EMPLOY 81 TEACHERS
Cost for Past Year to Maintain the
school Was sol, 626.O7; Year Was
n Good One.

Silver City, n. NJ, Aug. Miss Isa-
bel Eckles, county superintendent OF
education, has completed her report for
the past year and forwarded IL 10 the
state superintendent. 1t shows that
the county schools had a prosperous
year. the average school term for the
SO districts in the county, being over
seven months. Silver City had a term
of 10 months and u districts each had
nine months terms, only seven dis
tricts had five months terms. Miss
Eckles is arranging to have no dis
trict in the county have less than seven
mences the first Monday in September
and all schools to open promptly on
that day.
Sixty-seven teachers were employed
last year and the cost of running the
schools was S51, S26.07. Nearly all the
teachers employed last year held first
and second grade certificates. only a
few holding third grade certificates
being employed.
The Lubin Motion Picture company,
which has been here for about two
months, has completed the work and, it
is said, will soon leave for Las Vegas,
where the company Will remain for
some time taking pictures in that 10
caIity.
It is reported here that beetles are
doing damage to crops and garden
truck on the Mimbres- In the vicinity
of Silver City, ii has been noticeable
for some time that there are fewer
beetles and other bug pests than for
many years past Some of the country
districts report fewer flies. The cool
nights that have been the rule thus far
this summer, have had something to do
with the fly shortage, it is believed
