The last game of the Alumni-High
School series will be played tomorrow

series was intended to have three
games played but on account of a dis
agreement tomorrow's games will
complete the alumni encounters. Both
the girls and boys teams will play.
The local boys five have already been
beaten by the alumni while the Z. A.
girls have defeated the alumni quin-
tet.
The Crimson and White boys are in
fine condition. Four straight victories

denced by the fact that Billy Wilentz
will play with the alumni and there is
also a possibility that Martin Jacob
son Of last years five and now of
Trenton Normal will be able to par
ticipate. With these two additions to
the already strong alumni, the Amboy
boys will be up against q tower of
strength.
The girls game also promises to be
a hummer" No new additions have
as yet been made in the alumni line
up and will start the game with Anna
Jensen and Ruth Macan, forwards;
Ethel Lewis, center; Cora DeRusha.

; Ugh: :& Prices?

You feel that retail meat prices are too
high.
Your retailer says he has to pay higher
prices to the packers.
Swift & Company prove that out of
/ every dollar the retailer pays to the
packers for meat, 2 cents is for packers
profit, Is cents is for operating expenses,
and IS cents goes to the stock raiser; and
that the prices of live stock and meat
move up and down together.
The live stock raiser points to rising
costs of raising live stock.
Labor reminds us that higher wages
must go hand in hand with the new cost
of living.
No one, apparently, is responsible. No
one, apparently, is benefited by higher
prices and higher income.
We are all living on a high-priced scale.
One trouble is, that the number of dollars
has multiplied faster than the quantity of
goods, so that each dollar buys less than
| formerly.

KNIGHTS CLASH
HERE TONIGHT
With Local Y. M. H. A. in Game
Which viii Decide County
Championship

Everything is in readiness for the
big game for the county championship
at the Y. NJ. H. A. basketball court
tonight. The Knights of Saint Peter
will bring down with them from New
Brunswick one of the strongest bas-
ketball teams that has invaded this
city for a long time. The Y. NJ. Fl.
A. quintet that will oppose them Nill,
on the other hand, present M of the
fastest teams that has tackled the
County Seaters this year..
While the Knights have met more
teams in this county than have the To-
cal association team, the decisive
nj in which the locals defeated
the Riversides puts them on a par
with the College town team. The
Saints have in their lineup several
of the best dribblers in the county
and the fact that most of these men
play on various other strong county
teams, shows that they are recognized
as being the best. The ranks of the
Brunswick team will be augmented
by three of the fast Trenton Laurels,
who are recognized as players Of high
calibre in western Jersey.
Tom Barlow, Kearns and Torano
are the Laurels who have been play
ing in the knights harness for some
time. Fitzpatrick, Eppinger, Sutton
n Kane are the New Brunswick
boys who will also don the Saint uni
form in the big game tonight.
Charley Farrer will fill the pivot
position rs usual for the Hebrew five,
with Charley Sontag and Stotz at the
forward positions. Billy Wilentz and
Cherry will hold down the guarding
berths.
Joe Deering, the efficient referee
from c. c. N. Y, will act as eleventh
man on the floor. With so noted q
referee to take care of the game there
fs no doubt but hat the players on
both teams viii be kept at top-notch
speed throughout the game.
+ ank McKeown, the armless in.
~structor from Colonia hospital, will
entertain between halves. Benny En-.
cherman's orchestra will provide the
music for the ter~psichorean artists.
The game will start at 9:45 sharp
