Riversidss vanquishsd on
Island Soil Last Night
After Close Battling
AL WAND HOLDS KRUM MPE
Referee Gives Good DEAL
First Half Ends 1l-9--Sea-
sides Given Scare.
SIXTEENTH CONSECUTIVE
AL WAND HOLDS MPE

"Home was never like this was
the proper sentiment expressed by
the Riverside basketball team in Ell
~tingv1lle, S. l., last night when they
were defeated after a closely fought
battle which was characterized by
roughness. AS Manager Dolan, Of
the Seaside team stated after the
fray, 1.-THE game could not have
been much rougher. lone of the
miraculous points about the contest
was the fact that despite the rough
house warfare not one of the play
ers was seriously injured.
Last nights tussle was the third
of a series, the first two having been
won by the Riversides. The first half
resulted 11-9 in favor of the Island
ers and the final tally was 26-15.
The locals started out to play their
regular style and before they be-
came conscious of the fact that rough
tactics were being practiced, the
score was 60 in favor of the Sea-
sides. Then 1t was that the "Riyies"
came back with as much roughness
as their size allowed. And when the
initial period ended. the tally read
11-9. In the final stanza, Krummpe
began to take advantage of his
weight and size in an unfair manner
by falling on and riding on the backs
of the smallest OF the Riverside men
at times when even by so doing he
was not in a position to shoot. 1t
appeared that he merely did 1t so
as to wear out the locals. Referee
Hennessey called about three times
as many fouls on the Seasides as he
did on the locals and acted as fair
as one could expect since the next
thing to calling more fouls would
have been disqualifying one or two
of the men and that is probably not
the custom In Eltingville.
CAL" Wand was assigned to guard
Krummpe and he did so in better
style than any other man who has
opposed the husky Seaside man on
the Eltingville court this season.
McCreery worked in admirable fash
ion and scored elevent counters for
the locals. Allen showed some won
derful floor work and all around
good playing but was checked In his
great work by the failing of heavy
bodies upon him." Allen took the
roughing and returned as much of it
as he was able.
Hennessey played a good game as
did Solheim. Krummpe although
held to a much lower score than
usual, scored eight points. Solheim
took advantage Of the free throws
allowed him. Hennessy scored two
field goals against Durham and three
against Burns. The Seasides showed
some clever form in their passing.

REAL "BULL" BY ID. IT,

wick, Woodbridge, South Amboy and
this city will be represented in the
county high school league race for
supremacy. But as far as the club
teams in this county or on Staten
Island are concerned, league is an
undesired word.
Perth Amboy has no reason to feel
discouraged in the least for the alb
sence of a league organization here
abouts. However, If this city possess
ed an inclosed baseball park and not
a league 1t would be missing some-
thing: there is nc mistake about
that. But with open diamonds the
support without doubt would be too
little to maintain a good league team
even II 1t we're comprised of wholly
local talent. So that as far as this
burg Is concerned for the coming
season, we can hope for a bright one,
ever without a league and even
without an inclosed diamond, al
though the latter, If we had it, would
unquestionably help the sport here
many hundred per cent.

HUCUENOT AND
IROQU0|S WILL
MEET APRIL Is
To Open Season in Baseball
on Island S0iI-- Met
Last Season.

Manager Philip Payne, of the lro-
quois baseball team, has booked his
crew to oppose the Huguenot A. G.
on the diamond April IS, in Hugue-
not in the fray which will be the
opening contest for both aggrega-
lions. The "Redskin" leader origi-
nally intended to have the Iroquo1s
ppose the South River nine In the
opening contest of the season, but
the Riverites and the "Injuns' viii
clash on April 20, n week afteI
the locals open their season.
1t is a peculiar coincidence that
the Irouuois should commence their
warfare for the season against Bar
rvs crew as they started off the
same way last year. The locals
conquered the Islanders In their
clashes last season and 1t Is the
same confident feeling hat the lro-
quois entertain that brought them
the bacon In the games already
played against the Huguenot.
Foley, Ritter and Earl Mullins,
the slab artists in the 'Injuns'
camp. are showing rare form in the
practices already held and every
prospect points toward a successful
season Of pastiming.

ROUGH AND CLOSE BATTLE
RESULTS IN WIN FOR SEAS|DES
BATTLE
BETWEEN GREAT
RIVALS MAR. 20

On the evening OF Friday, March
2S, the Riverside and Puritan
basketball teams will meet In a battle
which will attract the attention Of
every fan in Middlesex county and
many in Staten Island. This game
will be the second of the series.
Should the city champions annex the
fray the series would be ended but If
our "Forefathers" turn the tide of
victory in their direction, a third
game will be necessary.
Two weeks ago the Riversides de-
feated the Puritans in the best and
most earnestly fought game ever
staged on the Auditorium court be-
fore a crowd of nearly 700 fans.
The contest was a wonderful exhibit
ton Of rivalry, and anxiety, as we'll
as Of mere playing abilities. When
the two aggregations clash again the
same crowd will be on hand, for
there was not one in the spacious
hall on the night OF the last River
side-Puritan clash who did not say,
at was a great game. When will
the next n be played?" or words
to that effect.
To Have Garland.
Manager Joseph Mullen expects to
strengthen his forces by adding
Freddie Garland to his lineup. Who
Garland will replace Is lot known as
yet. Mullen refused to state whose
place Garland would occupy but 1t
is a cinch that Jimmy Armstrong is
probably the man who will be
yanked out. Garland is a center too
but 1t is unlikely that he will take

SOUTH AMB0Y
MAY PROCURE
MORGAN MEN
With Atkinson Away and Re-
port of Stratton's Leave,
Athletics Are Weak.

Latest reports from the camp nl
the Athletics, of South Amboy, is
that Lester Stratton, will not be in
this crews ranks when the season
opens. Pop" O'Toole is no doubt
having all he can do doping out what
lineup he will have to present when
the baseball year is inaugurated in
South Amboy. At present, he is
minus Atkinson and Stratton of last
years crew. These warriors were
two of the strongest points in the ag-
gregation's lineup of last season
and it will take two fast men to re-
place this clever duo.
Atkinson is now in Schenectady,
New York, and this accounts for his
inability to play with the Athletics.
Why Stratton has reported hat he
will be out OF the South Amboy
teams warfare is not known.
Manager O'Toole will no doubt
call on several of the former Nor
gan players to occupy the vacancies,

the pivot position which is at pres
ent In the hands of husky Harry
Schwartz.
Charlie Crabiel's speedy perform
ance when in the last Riverside-Puri-
tan clash no doubt entities him to a
berth as forward for the second bat
tie. 1t is conceded that Deegan and
Sullivan will work as guards In the
next clash.
Captain Johnny McCreery and
Eddie Regain are looked upon as the
duo who will perform as forwards
for the city champions when the war
signal is sounded. Wand will again
be seen at the throttle while Allen
and Burns will be placed at the
guard positions. Gull" Durham,
who has proven the best utility mar
In the county, will be used for emer-
gency and In case OF a mishap be-
fore the game will surely be put into
activity. 1t is only the fact that
every Riverside player who per-
formed in the first Puritan game
worked at his best that Durham may
be kept on the bench in the next fray
least at the start Of the battle.
That the Puritan fans believe Gar
land will fill the loop hole in the
Puritan makeup and thereby be the
factor needed to bring our Fore
fathers" to victory In the second bat
tie with the city champions In mani
tested by the bets offered. There Is
much Puritan money just now al
though 1t is a cinch 1t will be gobbled
up on the strength of the argument
that the "Rivies" won the first game.

With less than one month before
the baseball season Is In full bloom
in these parts, 1t would appear just
now that the word league, which has
been so greatly abused In the last
few months. will not be entered in

activities In these findings for the

Mounts attempts. despite the rawlings
of other baseball fanatics In this
state, and despite the most encour-
aging reports about the proposed
county league, all now are alike
dead.
Even the proposed Staten Island
league which looked SO favorable in
the eyes of the magnates across the
