HARRISON BIG FIVE.
Short Baseball Schedule
For Montclair High School

Montclair High School has can
celed the baseball game scheduled
for April with Paterson High
School. 1t is expected that a
New York school will be OBJ
tanned to fill the date. The Montclair
school has one of the shortest sehed-
ules in it's history. Outside of the
six games with the members of the
New Jersey Interscholastic League,
and a contest with Horace Mann
School, the High School has only one
other game. that being slated with
Montclair Academy.
Especial importance is attached to
the Academy game on May 90. as 1t
is the last to be played between the
two Montclair schools. the Academy
having recently announced that the
athletic relations between the two
schools were to be discontinued at
the close of the present school year.
The High School captured the
swimming and basketball games and
is now anxious to repeat in baseball.

of New York, go to "a. at Hantmann's
hall, Harrison, last night. 1t was the
third game Of q series, the Harri-
sonians having won to date two con-
tests and lost one. The match last
night was fast and interesting from
the start, and at no time did the
situation appear easy for the home
sters. The Big Five had to battle
every inch of the way to retain its
lead. At half time the tally read 10
to 10 In favor of the Harrison quln-
tet.
Dutch Stumpf and Eddie Doherty
excelled for the winners, while Ernst
and Healey performed best for the
visitors. The summary follows:

South side Takes Final Came.

In the final game of its season the
South Side High School basketball
team defeated the Bayonne High
School quintet yesterday afternoon at
Bayonne by a score of % to %. As
the score indicates, the game was a
nip-and-tuck affair, Bayonne making
a stiff bid in the closing period to
register win.
South Side assumed the lead in the
first half, at the end of which the
score stood 10 to 8 in its favor. In
the second period Bayonne braced
and it was only by stiff guarding and
good offensive play that gave victory
to South Side.
King at forward and Fucker a.
guard were mainly responsible for
the successful closing of the South
Side season. King netted the leather
five times from the floor, while
Fucker was a power in the defense
In addition, he scored a basket. Wei
Ter starred for Bayonne, scoring six.
teen of the twenty-three points. Be
sides counting eight free throws,
Weller tailed four field goals. The

team a better chance to develop HIM
self and develop his men and place
all entirely on their own resources.
Such plan may be all right, but it
doesn't seem fair to drill team and
coach a team up to the last minute
and then sit up in the grand stand
and see the team throw away the
game through the lack of Judgment
or baseball knowledge. we will adj
nit 1t is as fair for one as ii is for
the other, but if a coach is to be
employed at all he should be allowed
to go to the post with his team when
ever it makes a start.
C
If Battling Levinsky isn't beaten
In the meantime, he will box Gun
boat Smith ten rounds before the
Empire A. c.. in New York, on May
8. But there is just a chance that
Levinsky may suffer a little set
back, providing. of course. he is able
to find time to meet Charley Weinert
at Browns Gym on March 81. Such
q match is right up to Dan Morgan,
Levinsky's manager, but as Daniel
is a very wise fox he will probably
sidestop Weinert until after Levin
sky has had a chance at Smith. To
be beaten BY Weinert-and It is like
ly he would be--Levinsky's stock
would take a sudden drop and Vein
ert. not the Battler, would be fight

Billy Gibson is talking of matching
him against Jim Coffey at the Fair

to have Weinert box at one of his
! Central Institute shows, and Weinert
| is quite willing, just as soon as Pro-
| fessor Troxler secures q worthy oppo-
nent. Gus suggested Bill Watkins,
, the colored boxer, as an opponent for
! Weinert, but Manager Woodruff says
| that Charley is sticking strictly to
white hopes at present. Some of
| the sports seem to think that Weinert
and McCloskey would make an inter-
esting go for the Central Institute, or
the boys can get date over at
Browns. Weinert hasn't forgotten
| Troxler for the way Gus treated him
when he was coming out, and he is
willing to box for the professor when
ever it is convenient. And he doesn't
want all the money in the house
either. Although he is the most
prominent boxer in the State, he is
/ quite willing to box at Troxler's for
a $40 guarantee and half the money
received for the tickets he sells. That
seems to be fair proposition and
gives the promoter a chance to gel
a dollar or two.

JUDGES CANNOT TIE KNOTS

CONSERVATION may be caused in
some New Mexico households as II
result Of the opinion handed down
by Assistant Attorney General Ira
l.. Grimshaw declaring that neither
United States judges or United States
commissioners are qualified to per-
form the marriage ceremony. just
how many commissioners have tied
the nuptial knot is impossible to as
certain, but, Judging from letters re-
ceived, not few people have been
asking commissioners to perform the
role usually assigned to ministers
and Justices of the peace.
Although literally within the def
milton of "civil magistrates" Mr..
Grimshaw thinks that neither the
United States district judges nor the
United States commissioners were
intended by the legislature to tie the
nuptial knot.
