Independents Lose Seasons
Second Game Last Night
When AmboyS Beat Them

The Independent basketball team
of keansburg failed to shine in a
basketball game with the speed
ways. of this city, at Keansburg last
night. the home coming out on
the small end of a 34-14 cor in a
game which was featured by the
display of speed by the visiting COM
bination. The Keansburg team
failed to score as many points dur
ing the entire game as the Speed
ways ran up in the first half.
Although the scoring for the
Speedways was quite evenly divided,
Ray Handerhan and John Bradley
led the team in high scoring, while
Kruser. pivot man FOR the home
team, scored nine points as a result
of two baskets and five fouls. Charles
Brownmiller occupied the pivot po-
sition for the Amboy combination,
and outplayed the home center man.
The Speedway defense worked TO
perfection last night. and as a re-
suit the home team only scored four
baskets. three in the last few min
utes of play in the second half. Cam
pion and Bradley. the Amboy
guards. smashed up many plays, pre-
venting scores. and Bob Handerhan's
floor work was responsible for the
steady piercing OF the home defense.
The visiting team set up a safe
lead early in the first half, the home
teams first score from the field COM
ing in the last minute of play. The
first half ended 1875 in favor of the
Speedway combination. The visit
ing team scored thirteen points in
the second half before the keans-
burg combination parted the thread
for a point. There were no feature
shots made during the game. the
Speedway combination playing the
ball to their basket and then shoot
ing. while the home team. unable TO
smash the visitors defense, took nu-
merous shots from the middle of the
floor. causing the ball to pass to their
opponents.
This is the second defeat suffered
by the K~eansburg team. The Wood
bridge Parish House combination
nosed out the Independents by a
three-point margin earlier in the
season. The Dry Dock and Wilson
five combinations were defeated by
the Independents in close games.
