Georgia, are political chums of long

Daniels is to be secretary or the navy
under the new order OF things in Wash

truly delighted at the prospect than
Clark Howell unquestionably is.
MI Daniels and Mr.. Howell have
served on the national committee to-

much of MIR. Howells undisputed

Carpentier Again an Idol.

With the defeat of Bandsman Rice,
the English light heavyweight, by
Georges Carpenter, the French cham
pion, the latter once more becomes the
idol of the French sporting people.
When Frank Klaus, the Pittsburgh
mlddleweight, and later Billy Papke,
the Illinois Thunderbolt handed out
defeat to Carpenter the followers of
the French youth We're disappointed
and heartbroken. for Carpenter was
their idol.
However, it was apparent to all that
the French boy had so weakened him
self making the low weight for the
Americans that his defeat counted for
naught, and when he turned round and
later on defeated his rival, Marcel Mo
reau, his friends regalned confidence
Bandsman Rice had just returned from
Australia. where he made Il couple OF
good fights and was considered good
enough to stop the Frenchman, but his
quick knockout In two rounds has prov
ed big boost for Carpenter.

CONFIDENCE IN
PURITAN TEAM
Kills Rumor That Hs Has
Quit--WiII bs at the
Throttle Again.
SPEAKS WELL or WAND

That Harry Schwartz, the sterling
and husky pivot general of the Puri-
tan team, would no longer be in the
North Amboy crews lineup, was the
rumor which was reported to the
sporting editor yesterday. When
Schwartz was interviewed, however,
he Immediately replied in the mega
tive and showed great spirit of en-
thusiasm towards the Puritans. He
stated that he would be in togs in
the next Riverside-Puritan battle
unless an undertaken found 1t best
to have an engagement with him
previous to the staging of the second
battle.
Schwartz feels confident that his
team will win the next fray and
thinks that his clan should have
annexed the last contest. He speaks
highly of the performance of Wand,
who opposed him in the last game.
but he, also believes that 1t will be
harder sailing for the Woodbridge
lad in the next game. Schwartz
claims that his late inactivity in the
sport has naturally lessened his real
prowess but he adds that in the Sec
ond fray the Puritans will surely
win or It will not be his fault In the
least.
Although outplayed by Wand last
Friday, Harry showed up in great
form In the clash. He featured with
his foul shooting, caging the sphere
eleven times out of thirteen chances.
He also scored three field goals and
played a good all around game. 1t
was unfortunate for him, however,
that the Riverside pivot performer
was In such rare form on that par
ticular occasion which was SO i'm
portant,
That the tables will be turned in
the battle soon to be waged is the
true belief of Harry, who is the idol
OF the Y. M. II. A. fans as well as
the favorite OF many from all parts
about the county.

At a meeting of the Board OF
Managers of the Middlesex County
Interscholastic Basketball League,
held In New Brunswick Saturday af-
ternoon, it was decided that the
game between Woodbridge and Perth
Amboy, which will be the third of
the series between these teams, be
played on a neutral court. Joseph
Gushing, captain OF the W. H. S.
team, and Voorhees, Garretson, a
prominent local school lad. were
named the committee to decide upon
a neutral court upon which to stage
the contest.
1t will no doubt be a long while
before the committee is able to agree
upon neutral court. In fact, 1t
would not at all be surprising
should Garretson and Cushing be
unable to agree on the matter, since
that has been the case between Mac

next week. since 1t Is Holy Week.
But on March 2S or some day In that
week the battle Will no doubt be

agreed that the fray would be played
in that week. Manager Mullen will
set the exact date and the Riversides
claim that they will be satisfied to
play whenever the Puritans give the
signal. Manager Mullen would not
allow his men to play the second
game this week because he wants
his crew to get several practice ses-
sions. Joe will try to book games
which will serve as practices to his
clan for the next Riverside-Puritan
clash, which is one that everyone is
awaiting.
The Riversides will keep on prac-

pearance.
The event will no doubt be an in

of the Civil War, having fought in
the great battles of this country's
history.
AS sprinter he has attained

campments he has won every race
OF any Importance for the last TWEEN
ty-five years. Col. Smith promises
to win and wants many of the older
generation as well as the boys, whom
he considers his admirers, to be on
hand Friday night to see the race.
Desmond Is practicing daily and
getting in trim for the event which
he hopes TO win. He will no doubt
have n hard matter of landing the
winner of the race but he will make
a strong attempt.
AS an added attraction there will
be a basketball game, although 1t Is
not known as yet what teams will
battle in the fray.

That Riverside-Purltan game was
a much better exhibition than either
tussle of last year. 1t was game
marked by spectacular shots, great
guarding, and fast floor work.
And the roller skating race which
Desmond won was worth the price of
admission by itself not alone coupled
with the Riverside-Puritan clash as
an attraction.
