Community Club Of
Englewood Defeats
Palisade Triangles

On Tuesday evening, December Ia,
the Triangle Club basketball team
went to Englewood to play the Com
munity Club five. The game resulted
in victory for the Community Club
by a score of 64-33.
Lack of practice spelled Palisades
downfall. The forwards showed a
weakness in shooting goals from the
floor which can only be accounted for
by the fact that the Triangle Club
has no facilities for practice. Beck
mann at center played good game,
scoring a large percentage of Pail
sades points, but he let his man,
Finnberg, who is one of the best
players in this section of the coun-
try, score many baskets. Cole, new
member from New York, and Blue,
played steady games in the guard
positions.
The game was rough and fast, but
there was no i'll feeling between the
members of the rival teams. The
Community Club has an excellent
team and played better game than
the Triangle Club.
The Triangle Club has now won
one game and lost three. Other
games will be scheduled throughout
the winter. The line-ups:
Community Club Triangle Club
Jameson Forward Lane
Roos Forward Woolcott
Finnberg Center Beckmann
GUIDE Guard Cole

key for Lane, Flagge for Berkey,

Heavy Snow Storm
Hits Palisade Section
Doing Some Damage

Two heavy storms that appeared
to be steering across the paths of
each other came to blows, as it were,
on last Monday and Monday night,
and for almost twenty-four hours
made things hum in this part of the
moral vineyard. On Monday morn
ing early it began to rain and blow,
and before an hour had passed there
was sleet and some snow. The wind
cavorted around as though it meant
to tear things loose, and it succeed
ed, taking few shingles off of roofs,
and many minor things like this.
Along towards the early afternoon
the snow began to come down heavily,
and by nightfall the streets of all the
Palisades section were impossible,
and cars began their regulation stunt
of getting out of order and out of
gear generally. Ice was forming on
the wires, and power was hard to
generate. Some of the cars up the
hill from Edgewater about four P.
M. were stalled, and people got out
and walked up the hill to Palisade.
1t showed almost the whole night,
and by Tuesday morning, old Mister
Winter had hung all his clothes out
on the trees and fences to beat the
band. And it all made one of the
most beautiful sights ever witnessed
in this locality. 1t was literally a
dream of fairyland. The trees were
all heavily coated with ice and snow,
and the scene along any street of the
Hilltop section was wonderful. The
fence around the park was like a
long weave of beautiful lace work. On
the level the snow appeared to be
about twelve or fourteen inches, and
made walking extremely difficult.
The cars did not get to running reg
ularly till about nine o'clock, and
they could have done better but for
the heavy snow. On the Palisade
line two cars were run all night, so
that route was pretty well swept and
the delays were not so provoking.
On the line to Edgewater ferry, about
1850 a car ran off the track at the
park entrance near the Luff home,
and there was a long delay. The in
spector told the waiting passengers
in the Fort Lee and Tenafly cars
that they could not get down the hill
till four cars that were in Edgewater
came up the hill. The wait was
twenty-five minutes, and the passen-
gers took it good naturally.
Some of the Palisade gardens were
very beautiful with the great loads
of snow they carried on trees and
shrubbery, and much of the latter
was broken down.

and dug up John street intending to
run a private sewer from a cess-pool
into the public sewer, and all this
without authority. The Mayor said
that he had forced the work to cease
until permission had been rightfully
obtained and the proper formalities
gone through with. He went on to
say that the trouble had been all
Strengthened out and that the bor-
ough engineer had drawn up and
filed the proper maps and that he
had signed agreement from the
film company agreeing to pay the
full expense of the work in the
street, abiding by the plans of the
borough engineer, and paying the
proper sewer assessment. This
document was signed by Henry
Bayard, of the Paragon Film Co. The
engineer exhibited his maps, which
were deemed satisfactory.
A resolution was passed to pay
the annual salaries of the volunteer
fire department.
A warm discussion ensued between
Mayor White and Mr.. King, of the
Board Of Health, as to who had
jurisdiction regarding sewers.
The council seemed to support the
Mayor in his views that, irrespective
of the state laws in the matter, all
sewers and sewer connections are
directly under the jurisdiction of the
Mayor and council. The opinions of
Judge Doremus and present Counsel
Seufert, bore out this statement.
Mr.. King still persisted that the
matter was solely in the hands of
the Board of Health and so the SUBJ
ject was tabled until the next meet
ing.
The Collectors report for the
month ending November 80, was re-
ceived and ordered filed.
A resolution was passed to have
the books of the borough for the
year 1915, audited in detail by A.
H. Weiske, for the sum of $275.
The next meeting will be held on
December 20, which will be the last
meeting before the new members of
the council take their places.

ell, but every citizen interested in
the welfare of the county to be
present.
Collector -@r--ada reported that lie
had looked into the protest of Philip
Hook, who refused to pay the in
terest upon his sewer assessment
amounting to $685., because he
claimed that he never received bill
Mr.. Benda said that the property had
belonged originally to Father Hagen
who some time back sold it to George
Burdett, who recently sold the plot
to Mr.. Hook. He went on to say that
he had never sent bill to Mr.. Hook
for his interest, because he had
known of the change of hands of the
property, but that he had mailed it
to Mr.. Burdett, who should have
turned it over to Mr.. Hook upon the
sale of the ground to him, which was
not done.
A resolution was straightway pre-
pared and later passed relieving Mr..
Hook of the obligation of paying the
interest, which would be charged up
to the borough.
Two invitations were accepted by
the council: To attend the Carnival
and Ball of the Fort Lee Athletic
Club, to be held at Cella's Hall, on
New Years Eve and to be present
at an entertainment at Holy Angels
Hall on Sunday, December 10.
Mayor Wissel, of Edgewater, COM
municated that the property of Mr..
Lynn's of his borough was being
seriously damaged by the overflow of
water from a leak in the eastern
sewer of Fort Lee, which was flood
ing his land. The matter was re-
ferred to Engineer Mason for inspec-
ton and adjustment.
The Public Service Electric Co.
complained to the council that it had
suffered an unusual breakage OF
street lights recently by both men
and boys, and asked the aid of the
body in having a speedy stop put to
the disturbance. They desired to
have the matter turned over to the
police. Mayor White instructed the
clerk to notify Supervising Principal
Chase to investigate the matter and
see what he could do toward the
stopping of this vandalism.
Under new business, Councilman
McAvoy brought to the attention Of
the council the fact that Contractor
Abrahams had put up his stone
crusher for the winter on the boule-
ward and that he had done the same
with the steam roller on Fletcher
avenue, which he had left nearly in
the middle of the street. These OBJ
jects, too, had no red lights upon
them at night. The clerk was mott
fed to write a letter to the con-
tractor and have him remove his
property from the center of the
street.
Resolutions were passed to renew
certificates No. 621 and No. 819.
A resolution was passed to move
the pole on the southerly side of
Main street, seventeen feet west of
tn intersection of Palisade avenue, to
a point five feet eastward OF its pres
ent position.
Mayor White brought up the sub
iect of the Paragon Film Co. sewer
extension. He said that the COM
pany without the consent of the coun-
ell. without filing maps of what they
were trying to do, had gone to work
