PARKER HAS CAPTURED MANY
HONORS ON SQUASH COURT
Veterans of Game Predict Fine
Future for M0ntClair
YOungster.
STEADY, BRILLIANT PLAYER

Park G. Parker, of 166 North Noun
tain avenue, Montclair, who won the
annual handicap tournament Of the
National Squash Tennis Association
last Saturday on the Columbia Uni
versity Club courts, New York, is
prominently known through this sec
ton for his ability on the squash
court.
Although only youngster, Parker
displayed wonderful form on the
court, and has won many honors. He
is steady, brilliant player, and as a
member Of the Montclair Athletic
club has done exceptional work on
the court there.
In the final of the national tourna-
ment he was pitted against a club
mate. BILLY" Mills. Mills put up a
game battle, but Parker was not to
be denied, and his steady play re-
turned him the victor

stance, though Norman is one of the
best shots in this section, he gets
rather peeved when he is unable to
obtain seven or eight baskets. He
was guarded closely in Sundays
game, and it naturally made him
sore. Norman started the trouble,
and Pete Schoen took part in the af-
fair. Both players were banished
from the game by Referee Artie Con-
Ian. If any team was weakened 1t
was the Bay Views. Koermaier was
not on hand and McWalters was re-
placed by Mckinley. I endeavored
to bring McWalters back into the
game, but this the Rosedales would
not stand for. Rather than finish the
game with four players L decided to
put Gilhooley in the game. Though
Sundays affair did not amount to
much, Referee Conlan was correct in
banshing both Schoen and Norman.
The referee is the boss on our court
and will remain so.
Mr.. NJ" remarks in regards TO
the youngster, Whitehill is enough
indication that he does not know
very much about the size of basket
ball players. Whitehill is one of the
best players ever developed In Hud-
son county. Furthermore, Mr. NJ"
does not mention the fact that the
Rosedales baked little Louis Riel-
ly each time REILLY endeavored to
cage a free throw Well, Mr. NJ, -
l placed mere boy In the game
against the Rosedales, and you
should be satisfied that the said boy
won the game. His remarks about
Mckinley, whom he claims roughs it,
are untrue, for Bill Is one of the
hardest-w working and gamest players
hereabouts. 1t may be of interest to
MT, NJ" that another prominent
local team is after the services of
Mckinley.
Now, Mr.. NJ" if you do not care
for Mckinley or our referee, whom
we claim one of the most capable in
this vicinity. YOU are at liberty to

Jim Corey. the Dublin Giant
outpointed Gunboat Smith in their
ten-round fight at Madison Square
Garden last night. The margin was
not very large. but it was sufficient
to give him the verdict. Coffey was
the aggressor most of the time and
he fought better battle and a
gamer battle than he has ever shown
before. He tired at the end. but he
put UP a highly commendable bout.
Smith was more active than usual
and he was clever, but somehow he
couldn't seem to locate the Giant
with one of those knockout wallops
of HIS. He tried hundred times at
least to put over what is known in
pugilistic parlance as the darby"
but Coffey was on to the Gunboat's
pitching and avoided his vicious on
slaughts at every turn. Three or four
times Smith landed a terrific upper
cut to Coffey's chin, but the Giant
took the blows and fought back like
a game fellow.
o
On his fight last night. Coffey is
better than he has been rated in the
past. He is still slow and his legs
quake under him for no apparent
reason. On several occasions he wob-
bled on his own leads, and he was
unsteady on his pins in the
cIinches. But he fought the more
aggressive battle, and the better bat
tie. and he was entitled to the hon
ors. Smith, Judging from his show
ing last night, must be losing his
punch, and his judge OF distance was
very bad. He seemed to depend en-
tirely on his left hand, and kept his
famous right In retirement. The
Gunboat hooked mostly with his
left, and he landed often in the early
rounds. As the bout progressed Cof-
fey got wise to the hook and he
blocked 1t beautifully. Then Smith
