Court For Their Home Games

The Y. M. c. basketball team held
another weekly practice on the st.
Peter court last night. Manager
Austin Hornsby put the boys through
some fast passing, shooting and all
around floor work, and the combina-
ton looks good for strong opposition
right now.
Ray Handerhan, formerly of the
Riversides and Amboy Five, was
on hand and showed plenty of speed.
Bob" Handerhan, also formerly of
the Amboy Five, was there and gave
a good exhibition of his playing abil-
ity. Hornsby, who in all probability
will be pivot man, looks as good as
when he was on the court before, and
when Bull" Is at his best he is hard
to beat.
Gene" Parker, formerly of the Y.
M. G.. team, was on hand but did not
go through very much practice, due
to the fact that he has just recovered
from illness. Fritz" Glochau's all
around play marks him as a sure bet
for a position on the strong Y. NJ. c.
team. "Yf' Hibbard's speed, shoo.-
ing ability and floor work show that
he too will give them all a hard run
for their jobs. A college player was
on hand last night, taking part in the
practice, and looked good.
While Hornsby has been gettina

After several strenuous practices

night against the crack Michelins of

baskets from all corners. "Pox" has
decided to change his men around,
little different from that stated in
Tuesday nights paper.
In the forward positions will be
found Johnny McCreery and Eddie
Regain, two speed merchants; two
crack shots n two great floormen.
They will keep their opponents on the
go all the time, and will keep the
home register climbing.
Hang Thomas will handle the
pivot job, and all basketball JAMS know

diggins that can get the jump on the
local boy, and his shooting, speed and
floor work Is of the highest class.
In the guarding positions the Au-

and Pete" Hanson, and both of these
stars always play a hard floor game,
are great at breaking up passes, and
also gained many laurels by their
shooting ability.

to come UP strong to win. They will

Just before the Reds started south
this spring, Pat Moran, seeking to boil
