ATLAS: KEbSBEY
GAME FIRST GRID
BATTLE Of SEASON

On Sunday afternoon opportunity
will be offered to the followers of foot
ball in this city to see their first game
of the season. The Atlas A c., the
sole representatives of the game in
this city, are to meet the Keasbey f.
G. team which recently announced
their entry into the game. The game
will start at $3.50 o'clock. and large
crowd of local rooters are confident
ly expected to turn out.
A. portion of the proceeds of the
game, which will come from a coilec-
ton, will be devoted to the benefit of
one of the regular Atlas players who
broke his collarbone in the first scrub
game of the year and has been laid up
since. He has not been working and
the club wants to give him a testi-
menial, OF their esteem. He will re-
ceive certain portion of the proceeds
after expenses are paid.
The Atlas team went over to
South Amboy last Sunday, and after
sixty minutes of good hard play, they
left the field tied with the strong EN-
pires of that place, who have already
defeated the Royals of Pleasant
Plains. 8. I. The local team, although
they weigh but about an average of
1S5 pounds played the much heavier
and larger Empire team to a point of
evaporation, and several minor scrim
IMAGES took place, not written in the
football rules.
Austin F'iegen. formerly of the Dex-
ter team, has been putting the Atlas
team through their PAGES for several
weeks, consistently. Thev are playing
lik well oiled machine and expect to
nave no trouble with the Keasbey
team, which has just started a short
time ago, and has been practicing
daily, awaiting the Atlas contest.
F1egen has his men working on
many stellar plays, but straight foot
ball has been pushed to the limit. The
team seem to have mastered that
portion of the game, and are playing
well enough for anyone.
The members of the squad who
nave been wrking out with the clever
this week are Campbell Manton.
Panko, Balint, Mello, Martin, Goebel,
Sullivan. Mandel, Dunham and Fie-
gen.
The Keasbey team have not vet
played regular game. but they have
practiced faithfully for this game.
They are a willing bunch and ones
that will command attention when
they hit the field.
The line up of the team will be az
follows. 1t is thought: Joe Katransky,
L. T.; Joe Resh, r. E.; Ray Fullerton,
u T.; FParsler or Runstadler, r. T. (:
Alex Holman, r. c.; Steve Resh, L.
G.; w. Gloff, c.; G. Pfeiffer, @. B.:
James Romer, F. B.: R. Durham, R.
H. B.; @. Fullerton, L H. B.; Wagen-
hotter and 500, reserves
The Raritan Copper Works field
will be used for the game, the posts
and goals to be erected this week. The
diamond will probably be the scene of
the game. although the softer ground
on the north end of the field may be
chosen.
1t will be the first real football
struggle that the field has seen since
the state champion Dexters held the
top Of the armament in the pigskin
game In this quarter section of the
country.

ST. PETERSY, N. c. PRACTICE
IN GAME WITH M|CHEL|NS

Playing the sudden role of star last
night, Gene Parker rolled up more
points than the entire Michelin team
in their game against the st. Peters
7. M. c. at the parish house in Rector
street. With living in and Garland
out, the Michelins had every hope of
winning the game, but, after the first
nve minutes of play, it was walk over
for the Y. NJ. c. with the total score
at 60-22.
Despite the acquisition of living,
and the presence of steedle, Crabiel,
Walt Smith and Rood, about the best
line up the Michelins could muster,
they played very bad basketball last
night. living was almost as good as
useless to the tiremakers. 1t was
thought that he would bolster them
up considerably. and bring home a
victory for them after three earlier
defeats, but he was in poor form last
night. Neither he, nor Garland, could
have won, out over the Y. M. C. with
the playing they displayed last night.
The local team was like a flash on
the floor. All of the men not only
scored, but they played wonderful
brand of basketball. They played
fast running game, with excellent
passing, and clever shooting. In fact
they left little to be desired. Parker
surprised the SdtnerlnB OF rams ana the
players themselves by his work on
the floor. He was all around the court
and shot with true accuracy. making
total of eleven baskets for the Blue
and White clad team. Parker's clev-5
er shots went in from all angles and
overhead In the first half he made
five baskets and in the second six. If
his playing continues, it will be hard
to discard him from regular position
on the five. Walt Smith could not hold
him from scoring, nor could he fol-
low him on the floor.
Austin Hornsby was the second high
scoring man. He played with the
best form that he has displayed In
some little time. With the stable
living opposing him, Bull rang up six
baskets, three in each half, and played
a great game at breaking up Michelin
passed and plays He was in old time
championship form, and there could
be little added to his playing.
Copeland, one of the Staten Island
ers, made a great showing also, COM
ing to the front In the second half
with three fine shots. He is an old
expert at long hard shots for the bas-
ket, and after he got his eye trained
last night he dropped In three that

INDOOR HOCKEY TO
Be BIG SPORT At
!. N. CA. THIS YEAR

The gymnasium classes at the Y M.
Z. A. have already taken up the in
door hockey schedule for portion OF
the physical competitive work this
season. The classes will be organized
into league and inter-league series
will be played. The best men from
the leagues will be chosen for a rep
resentative team and they will COM
pete with outside teams.
Such is the program as outlined for
the year in indoor hockey 1t is a new
departure for the Y. M c. A., and
while 1t resembles it in some respects.
is different from the ice hockey. STATS
are used, with small pucks similar to
the usual equipment, but the staffs are
straight, and not in the shape of the
ordinary hockey stick
The teams are composed Of SIX
members. The court, the same as the
old basketball court, and the outside
rules are virtually the same The
floor, or court, is divided into quarter
sections. There are fouls and penal
ties. and the scoring is done in one
point per goal or one half point for a
foul goal.
The team, composed of six men,
named as follows: three forwards. -
goal tender, center, and a quarter
man The forwards play the part of
rovers, or the typical forward of the
bask etball floor. The goal tender lives
up to his name and guards the goal
from opposition shots. The quarter
man Is stationed between goal tender
and his forwards and the center Is as
in basketball. There Is a referee, the
prime official, also a time keeper
In the first place. there are certain
forbidden acts, and certain that are
allowed, that have complications The
goal tender can touch or stop the puck
with his feet, or kick it back as it ap-
proaches him. The other players are
not qualified 70 i.lt u - the Ii1a1r
except with their own staffs. IS .'
Should any portion of the staff go
over the shoulder of a player, or at
height over that of his shoulder. foul
has been committed. and is called by
the referee. Scooping the puck, which
is to say. laying the stick on the floor
and pushing the puck about, is a foul,
as are unnecessary roughness, and
dribbling. BY dribble, the same term
as applies to basketball is applicable
to indoor hockey.
To shoot a foul, the person shoot
ing stands ON the quarter line, near
est to the goal, and gets a free shot
from that line. The goal keeper is
privileged to endeavor to intercept the
shot, and may do so with his staff or
feet. turning the puck back into play.
If the puck leaves the floor of play,
it Is returned by the side opposite to
the one sending 1t out of bounds.
The goal lines are at the opposite
end of the gymnasium, and are spaces
four feet apart, through which the
puck must pass to count as a goal or
a foul goal.
While the foregoing is merely
rough outline of the details of the
game IT gives an idea that the snort
is to be an encouraging and novel sue
cessor of basketball, and the members
who have played or seen 1t played are
enthusiastic to play the game.
The first game against another asso-s
citation by the local one will be against
Paterson, who has already played 1t
for one year, at Paterson, on Nov. 18

KNIGHTS OF PYTH|AS
PREPARE B /: A RE FOR Y. NC.

Emerging victorious from the first
game of the season on the basketball
court in K. of p. hall in Tottenville,
the Knights of Pythias of that place
have arranged for the second game,
which will probably be in the line of
a practice session for the Islanders
who are preparing to meet the st. Pet
er's Y. M. c. team on the following
Wednesday night at the Parish House
in Rector street.
The team will take on the Runyon
Five. from the city pumping station at
Runyon, near Old Bridge. The f1ve
was formed from residents in that sec
tien and employees of the pumping
station some years ago. They have
not played SO far. and they are not
expected to give the X. of P. much of
a tussle for the honors.
On the other hand, the Knights
know just about how they will have to
look at the proposition of the Y. M c.
They know that they will not be able
to tackle the Rector streeteEs without
good and sufficient practice and a con-
fidence in their own abiutty In COM

Blackie Regan played his usual
wonderful game. The little dusky
haired captain of the Y. M. c. was in
the game every minute of the con-
test, breaking up plays time after
time, and, in the second half, recov-
ering his shooting eye, making four
baskets, after being held scoreless by
Steedle in the first half. Dickie Leh-
man, the other Islander, made the
fifth perfect cog In the workings of
the Y. NJ. C. last night. Dick rang up
four baskets and held his man to a
low scoring mark.
One Of the surprising features was
the reversal of form shown by Steed-
lie in foul shooting. The county cham
pion at this game, he was able to ring
up only one out of five tries for the
mark, turning the job over to Rood,
who made two of four. Regan made
three foul goals for the Y. M. c., and
Parker one
If the Y. M. c. keeps up the work
