HERE MONDAY
New Local Y. M. H. A. Five
Plays First Game Then; Have
Stars in Their Lineup

The initial contest of the
lied Y. NJ. H. A. basketball team next
Monday night will be against the
Ninety-second Street Y. NJ. H. A. of
New York City. Without a doubt the
N~inety-second Street association has
the fastest combination of basketball
players in Y. NJ. H. A. circles in great
er New York. The team averages
only 140 pounds but what these little
fellows lack in weight they make up
in ability. In two years the Ninety
second Streeters have played sixty
nine games and out of this enormous
amount of games have lost only one
opponents court.
All these men have played with
various New York high school quin-
tets n have been playing basketball
since they were tall enough to grasp
the ball. Spike Spinberg, the star
of this quintet. has just been muster
ed out of the service and his appear
ance on a local court will be the
greatest treat ever handed local fans.
Spinberg is claimed to be superior
to Nat Holman so it will readily be
seen that this combination are some
court artists. In addition to Spinberg
there is Herman Feingold, q lad of
only seventeen but recognized as the
fastest y%oungster in New York bas-
ketballdom. Feingold also plays with
the Boys Club and Clark House Five
of New York City.
Sam Goldstein, captain and star
guard, is another boy that has been
playing championship ball for the
past few years and assures Amboy
fans that his team will give them the
treat of the season when they lock
horns with the local Y. M. H.. A. five.
Dave Rubin, n former Michigan
star, Is coaching this quintet and this
same Rubin Is known to be one of
the surest shots in basketball.
Buck" Margaretten, who is man
aging the local team, has O surprise
up his sleeve for this game and al
though he refuses to announce his
players he asserts that the team he
trots out upon the o mex Monday
evening will win instant favor with
the fans. His team will be composed
of men we'll known In basketball
circles and this anne team will repre-
sent the local association through
out h season.
There will be no preliminary game
but the usual dancing before and af-
ter the game Will be furnished by u
local popular jazz band.

Is Athletics important
Factor in a Boys Life?

terry of mind; athletics, mastery of
the body and certainly no one will
contend hat everything has been
done toward attaining perfection of
the body unless these two sides of the
boys nature have been given the pro-
per attention.
Secondly, coming down to your
indulge in systematic exercise and
also enter into competition with his
associates? This is a decision which
in a doubtful case a parent is never
qualified to make. When l say new
er" 1 literally mean that, for only
too often what a frail and otherwise
unhealthy boy needs is the physical
as well as the mental stimulus of pro-
perly directed exercise. The physical
ability of your boy should be decided
by an experienced and possibly a spe-
cially trained man.
Thirdly, who is to have the over
sight of the training of your boy? No
matter how physically fit he may be,
he possibilities of good or i'll are
such in his exercise, both systematic
and in his game hat 1t is of vital inn
portance that he be properly trained.
1 am now thinking of competitive
athletics only. 1t is here where the
director has the well being of your
boy at his mercy. He can either make
or break him.
He a make an athlete out of him
in the restricted sense of a winner or
a near winner or can make him an
athlete in the full sense of the word.
This meal an early training which in
later manhood will put at the boys
command a body which Is not only
an adornment to the human race. but
which adds to its indispensable share
in the realization of his fullest eff
cheney as a member of society. A re-
cen public health report goes so far
as to qualify as a truism the fact that
the efficiency of the social unit is con-
ditioned more by his physical status
than by any other factor.
The moral and general influence of
an athletic director over your boy is
also of no small Importance. Indeed,
such direct possibilities for good are
held in his hands hat all others,
teachers and only too often the faith
ers and mothers themselves, must
take a back seat in his presence. Thus
in this particular relation the bars
are down, the boy unconsciously led,
and h impressions he receives are
correspondingly deep and lasting.
What a be more gratifying to a
parent than to feel that his or her
boy is being led by unconscious EMU
lation to become truthful, upright,
p%ersevering, fearless. master of his
temper. clean mouthed, a good loser
and above all, a gentleman?
Finally it is the duty of every par
ent to be interested in the boys
achievements for his entire life is
built around competition and you
should not allow your boy to miss
these pleasures that are the ean of
insuring him a more perfect mental,
moral and physical boyhood.

Willie Kohler, a fast New York boy.

past five or six weeks but began last
week to start training at the Y. NJ. C.

topnotch condition when he returns
to the ring. Kohler has made O rep
for himself as the result of his ability
to use his fists so that Potty will not
have any easy sailing although the
local boy has shown that he can take
care of himself against most other
men of his own weight.

last week and given a big hand show

larity is still in existence. At the same
time Potty was being introduced

also brought into the ring and given

still willing to meet Curry and the
Islander instantly accepted. These
two will meet in the near future.
