SETON HALL FIVE
CHOSEN BY HILL
Basketball Coach Selects Team
After Strenuous PreIim-
mary Work.
PROSPECTS ARE BRIGHT

Coach Frank Hill, of Seton Hall
College, has practically decided on
the makeup of his basketball team
which will represent the collegians on
the courts this season. A squad of
twenty collegians have been practice
ing during the last month in the cage
of the auditorium, and the chosen
aspirants were made to step at a
lively clip in order to win a place on
the team. Frank Flarity, who made
such a good record last year and who
is captain of the team, will play for
ward, and will have as O running
mate Peter Jones, another basketball
star in these parts. Alex Ormsby and
James Somers are slated to hold
down positions at guard, while
Francis Meehan has been chosen by
Coach Hill to take care of the pivot
position. There is good material
among the substitutes, John New
burgh, Edward Heine, Timothy
Coughlin Thomas Mccarthy, Robert
Brennan, Frank Cummings and
Thomas Harmon, being on hand to fill
in, If necessary. Last year there was
q lack of material, and the Seton Hall
team was forced to go through. the
season with practically six men.
Coach Hill is well fortified to begin
a strenuous campaign.
The team which will represent Sc
ton Hall is practically the. same which
represented the South Orange college
last year. A consultation Of the score
book last year shows a record of six
teen games won and two lost. AL
though Manager James ]. McAvoy
has not as yet made up his schedule.
it is known to be one of the most ex
tensive and best ever arranged at Sc
tonia. These facts, with the sanguine
prediction of Coach Hill, have caused
the supporters of the team TO believe
that this season will mark one of the
most successful in the history Of the
college.
Some of the teams which Seton Hall
will probably meet this season are:
Cathedral College, of New York; st.
Johns College, of Brooklyn; Fordham
University, Mt. st. Mary's College,
Army Freshmen, st. Peters College,
College City of New York, Huelen
burg College and possibly the Ores
cents. of Asbury Park. There are
many more games pending on the Sc
ton Hall schedule.
Task Ahead for Barringer.
Barringer High Schools football
team has a tough proposition on its
hands tomorrow afternoon, when ii
will tackle the Rutherford eleven at
the City Athletic Field. The latter
team is claiming the State high school
championship, and in its previous
games this season has shown to the
front on every attempt. Rutherford's
best performance this season was in
holding East Orange to q 7-to-7 score.
Coach Broadhead has been drilling
the squad at Branch Brook Park, and
the Barringer team, with Cairns in
at quarterback in place of Perry
Foster, appears to work better thai,
ever. Rutherford will be without the
services of Wallace, its star quarter
back, who Is out of the game on
account of injuries. With the excep-
ton of Wallace, the Rutherford team
is in the best of shape for the battle
