To Gas Customers

We regret to announce that it will
be necessary to curtail the supply OF
gas for the next few days.
Due to the fact that our regular
supply of gas coal was tied up by the
recent railroad strike we found II
necessary to buy cargo of gas coal
in tn open market.
This on delivery has been found
to be of such inferior quality that 1t
will necessarily limit our output.
This condition will be of short du-
ration as we are making every pos
sible effort to get our regular sup
ply of gas coal here, and we feel
sure this can be accomplished with
in two or three days.
Although it will be necessary to
curtail the supply of gas during this
brief period we will however main
tain service between 500 A. NJ, and
200 P. NJ, and 500 P. M. and SOU
P. NJ, with an extension OF these
hours if at all possible.

GREEK RUNNER
 GETS FIRST IN
 HlJB MARATHON

Boston, Mass, AspCdI 50.--One of the greatest finishes that ever n4aE4Qed the historic PatHotS Day 25 mile nlNr- 2sthon run from Ashland to Boston was that made yesterday by Peter TrivCu7Aaas, the Greek runDer from New York, who becazse he is not an American citizen, sS not eligible to go to Antwerp with the team represent ing the United States.
 TrzxczafidaS trailing far back during the greater part of the race, made a wonderful drive for the last few miles, his speed carrying him from z3rd po- sition until he finally passed Arthur Roth the 1aa6 winner of the Boston Athletic AssoGation classic, and final fy sezs4 him across the tape nearly a minute in the lead, in hours, g min 1tes and a1 seconds
 The record for the race is hours, 21 minutes, Is 4-5 seconds, made by Mike Ryan Of New York in 1912
 The Greek runner, less than three miles from the end of the race, was nearly half a minute ahead Roth al that time was running easily, bud later he faltered and did not have the stre1tgtf to hold his lead against the fast coming Spartan. Carl W. A Idnder of Quincy, Mass, one of the fa,vorites, was able to finish third and behind him came a qiuaret of wis ftine runners, Eddie White of Holy Cross Iyceum, New York, making z fine finish for fifth place by beating Rdbert CorTboy of Buffalo, who, il turn. had quite c margin over F'ranl Zuna of Newark.

HOLY CROSS IS WINNER IN GAME
 AGAINST BROWN

Worcester, Mass, April 1e - Holy Cross continued it's winning streak yesterday by defeating Brown, to 1. It was the opening game of the home schedule and drew a crowd of 10, o,o00 fans.
 Knight, the Brunontan pitcher, was hit freely by the Purple batsmen. while Horan. the Holy Cross twirler. held the Brown team hitless until he was taken out in the seventh. Horan. however, was very wild at times and his inability to find the plate in the fourth frame gave Brown its only tally. CHI, the southpaw, who reltev- ed him. allowed the visitors their two lonely afts and walked two men.
 Captain Daley's three-bagger to deep centre in the third frame gave the purple its first brace of runs. Leonard Dugan scored again for Holy Cross in the eighth. Leo Dugan, of the Athletics. was the big man with the stick. getting four hits out of four times up.

ALLEN WINNER IN BOUT AT
 SMOKER
By Jehn Pestm-

''Red" Allen, the pride of the Crashe A, C., was given the decision over Freddie S4ega1 of New Haven in the final bout of the smoker staged by the Rosebud A c. last night at the Armory A A. This bout was rather tame. Red uneerked some of his fla nous lefts but could not send over the sleeper as s4egal refused to mix it up.
 SiegaI was warned many times by Referee McAuHffe for sta1ling. In the last round he opened ap and let loose with some blows to Jehnny's face. Red forced the fighting all the way and the decision was approved by the fans.
 Mike McCabe of New York was given the verdict over Sailor Murphy of Stamford in a slashing bout. Me Cabe forced the fighting in the early rounds but Murphy seldom gave ground. Billy Prince was too clever for Young Palmer but the latter took his punishment gamely and was apt pIauded by the crowd. Young Hall e1 the Crasho A c. was awarded the de- cision over Kid McDona1d. This rul- ing was loudly cheered by Halls fol lowers Kid SniTenB- beat Batting Speed in the opener.

NEAL BALL BY HITS HELPS
 NEW HAVEN

New Haven, April ze-The Yale ana New Haven teams got together yes terday afternoon at Yale field and staged a practice game, which the collegfans won by score of to 5. The victory came as surprise to the fans who attended the game as the Eastern Ieaguers were leading in the eighth inning by a to count. At the bat. with two men on bases, was Rabbit Sawyer, whe hasn't been hit ting worth peanuts this season. How ever, the Yale captain came through nicely with a slashing double that put the Blue outfit one run in the lead.
 The dnfeld as arranged at the present time looks to be very good. Neal Ball of Bridgeport, at. second, performed in n1id-season style yes terday afternoon, both in the field and at the bat. He made one ex- cusable error, but otherwise his field ing was perfect. He collected 3 fine pair of hits and was on his toes every minute,

JOHNNY DUNDEE MEETS JACKSON
 IN RING MAY 6

New York, April 20 - To Willie Jackson and Johnny Dundee will fall the honor of being the first pair to box 12 rounds under the new New Jersey State Boxing law. May has been set aside by the Newark Sports mans club as the night on which the extra, four rounds are to be tackled on to all 'cross river bouts4
 At first it was planned to have. the Jack LawIer-Jaekso bout next Fri day the first 12-rounder. but the law doesn't a7lew it till after May 1.
 Jackson and Dundee Of course are the bitterest sort of rivals, Ever il will be, too, perhaps, since Jackson it was that sat Joian right straight dowr an the floor for the first and only knockout of his career, It is q mat ter of history that Dundee has easeJ the fancied disgrace Of that upset by beating Jackson in limited bouts since them
 In the last meeting, their fourth, Jackson pasted Johnny geed and hard for eight rounds, and he claimed after the bout that an added round or two would have meant second finish for Dundee at his hands. Now he may get his chance

CARL MAYS IN BAD IN BOSTON,;
 KISSED BY FANS

Boston, April 21.-The New York Yankees yesterday went to the ,ex- treIne of losing both morning and af- ternoon games. Weak pitching, poor base running and weird fielding gave the Red Sox the games by score of 6 to 0 and to 3.
 Carl Mays was trotted out in the afternoon contest and never in the history of the oldest fan has a. pitcher received such a partisan reception Mays was booed and hooted. and when finally he was knocked out o1 the box he left for the showers amid Eiases ard deristve shouts Mays wal hit hard but the defense he}lssrd laiIn tu1rIbled like a house of cards, and it was not altogether hts fault that the game went against him. Mogrtdge likewise had poor support in the morning game.
 When base hits began to ring es2t in the afternoon, the Yankees began an aerial ascension and it was just a case with the Red Soz of sitting tight and letting the Yankees beat them selves. Duffy Lewis Bsszee R11kh, SannEzsv VSclz and BoEAoy Nensel con- b7'FbaEted errors, wfE7le in the morning stealing Truck Hannah's mask Hooper stole everything else and he might 5ust as well have finished the job in good style. MeGrasw, Shore and Collins acted as relief pitchers.
 The Red Sox played like men in spired. Waite HoSEt hurled like 8 champion in the mourning and tn the afternoon Bullet Joe'' Bush, pitching his first game of the year, signalized his return to the box by hokddng the Yankees down in fine style

PENN COACH MAY HAVE ID CHANGE
 HIS SHIFT PLAY

Philadelphia, April 2o-The Uni versfty of Pennsylvania football can dfdates will start spring practice on April 26. They will be under the guidance of John W. Heisnnan, the newly elected coach, and his full staff of assistants until May IS. This will be the longest spring practice in the history of University Of Pennsylvania football. In commenting upon the 1920 prospects, former coach Geergc Woodruff said it was his opinion that football at Pennsylvania, will be sHc- cessfuI under Hefsznan, despite the fact that Heisznan's pet shift play will be difficult to execGte under the new rules.
 Speaking Of the shift play, Wood ruff sasd its effectiveness under the present rs1es depended entirely upon the attitude of the umpire, and, therefore, was not desirable
 While I do not know Nr. He{s> man very we'll personally he de- clared. <'I do know that he has been successful in the past and feel sure he will continue his success with x Penn teams in the future He is very enthusiastic, and has a keen insight of the game. E1tAassasgn is neces- sary for a successful coach. It is the spur for o9Sginative effort in bringing forth new plays Hesstnau has thss 6eSsrabze quality.
 ~SaHt plays usually give the team using them a tremendous advantage But, under the rules they have a great drawback. That drawback is the uuapire IT that official strictly adhsres to the rules after the first tiz7e or so the play is worked, he wif be bvund to penalfze the team 0It Is almost impossible in workins -szaEft play to have the plsyers ex- ecute it and still be within the pres ert rxzseS When the signals for il are given the 1nstinctlEe muscular ao- ticn of the players made automatic by long practice, Will inevitably cause them to move in vioiation of the rules If the umpire lets it go, well and good, The team will probably : run away with their opponents
 Tf the umpire adhereS to ths i ru+es, he VIII stop it, pena1ine ths team, and d3S1aearten them by render ing ineffective one of ther mos powerful weapons of defense Per ssona1ty, I would neySr use a pla1 which depends for it's efectiv ines: upon the attitude of the umpire"

Ted Lewis Seeking
 English Boxing Title

Now that Ted Lewis, the welter- weight champion, has J4neen baked of a chance to meet Johnny BeehaIn, the English title holder in that class, Lewis has turned his attention to the English niddleweights. He already has disposed of several and is anxiou ) to tackle the chaInaoion before return ing to the United States.
 There is some doubt as to wh om the English uiddleweight champion ship belongs at present. Pat OfKeefe was the last title holdter, but he re- tired some time ago. Lately he de- cided to stage a comeback, but he may TO longer be recognized. In any case Lewis will not get g. chance to fight for the title, because he now makes his residence. in New York

Young O'Leary of this city and Young Mack of Hartford will ningle. O'Leary has appeared at many smokers in this city. He is regarded as a. conner and so is Mack, who has also been seen in local rings. As both boxers are aggressive the affair should be ex- citing.
 Other bouts on the card arei Sailor Darcy against Sapper Cohan, eight rounds; Billy Prince Of this city vs. Kid Mcdonald, six rounds Young McAuliffe will referee all the bouts. An innovation will be the engagemen of SpeideTs orchestra to furnish music between bouts and before the show commences.
