High School Five to Meet
New Brunswick Tomorrow

Notwithstanding the fact that Leo
nardo High School ran out OF a game
with the local high school on h bas-
ketball court yesterday afternoon, the
locals went through a strenuous prao-
tee session that was hotter and or
more value than q game with Leo
nardo. The varsity squad consisting
Of ten men divided up into two teams
and q battle royal resulted. The squad
are now in tip-top condition and just
about ripe for the big game tomor-
row afternoon at New Brunswick with
the county seat high school.
The local school banked a lot on
the Harrison and Leonardo games to
give them a keen edge for their
Brunswick tussle, but both schools got
cold feet and at the last moment call
ed the games off. This has been a
disadvantage to the local dribblers. as
they have been forced to play amongst
themselves. But Miss Burns a the
utmost confidence in her boys and
with the practice sessions long and
hard has impressed upon her warriors
that a victory is the only thing for
Perth Amboy.
The New Brunswick basketball
team has been disposing of the Pace
making City's best year after year
with alarming regularity. but this year
the schools are more evenly matched
and a good close game is anticipated
by the large number of local fans that
will accompany the Crimson and
White team to New Brunswick.

Potty Will go into active training inn
mediately and he will have to work
hard to make a favorable showing
against the tough New York lad, who
displays a great propensity toward as
Stimulating punishment and then turn

will appear at the Democrat smoker
at Palace hall tonight and give a four
round exhibition with some fast boy.
Charley Goodman may also box for
the politicians tonight. These boys
may even be matched to spar with
each other or some out-of-town boys
may be secured to oppose them.
