GIRLS BASKETBALL TEAMS
TO Be PICKED At H.. s. SOON

Coach Miss Marion Burns, in
charge of athletics for girls at the
Perth Amboy High School, ANNOUNCE
ed yesterday afternoon that she in
tended to call a practice soon OF the
freshmen girl candidates for the
lower class team I'm the i~nter-class
series, which will get under way
very shortly. /. is the coach's inten-
ton to give the lower class players
all spart time possible because 1t is
their first time to come under Miss
Bruins supervision. After that the
sophomores. juniors and seniors
will probably come in the order
named. twill prepare their team for
the inter-class series. The juniors
of last year. seniors of today, were
the champions in the inter-class Sc
ries last year..
1t is expected that the inter-ciass
series will get under way about Mo-
vember 1. and after this series IS
over the coach will choose a team to
represent the high school on the
court this season.
Miss Anna Handerhan, one of the
star forwards of last years varsity
team, is manager of the team this
year. and she Is preparing an inter-
esting schedule of games. Miss
Burns is confident of coping the
county honors again this year. al
though she will be called upon to
build almost an entirely new team.

1.-THE greatest offensive strength in
the world would be no good If a
coach's players cannot tackle" says
Fisher. "A team might go on piling
UP scores forever, but if poor
tackles let the other side score more,
it would be of no avail.
How to Fall.
Similarly true is the fact that
if a man does not know What to
do and how to fall when he is
tackle the team is in bad shape and
the greatest defensive strength in
the world is Of no avail. Football
players must know how to fall or
are knocked out, injured and inca
pacitated and no good to a team"
Fishers Theory.
1t is also Fishers theory thai If
men are given SUFFICIENT training in
all the fundamentals of tackling,
fewer accidents will result and foot
ball kept in the place where it ought
to be. -.
The fact that a man has played
football for two years in college
doesn't save him from having to
go through his training with Fisher
and every day at the great stadium
scrubs and regulars so through their
tackling work as regular as clock
work.

RUTGERS GETNNG READY
FOR LEHIGH GAME SATURDAY

NEW BRUNSWICK. Oct. S.
The Rutgers football team has set
tied down to more intensive train
ing this week in preparation for its
game with Lehigh University at
South Bethlehem on Saturday.
which will be it's first away-from-
home game of the season. In 1919
Lehigh was the victor and the Scar
let eleven is determined to come
back this year.
The game on Saturday showed
that the hard and long drills of last
week were not in vain, but there is
still much to be done and the team
has yet to undergo considerable
change before 1t will up to
the standard of past eievens. The
aerial attack launched by the Uni
versity of Maryland was broken up
by the Scarlet backield and ends
The addition of several new men
and veterans in the line strengthen
ed it noticeably % that the backs
were able to pillow through for many
good gains.

First work in tackling should be
started by tackling on a bed of
straw says Fisher. I'm that way a
man can get his confidence, learn
the right way to tackle, and some
preliminary hardening without dan
ger to himself.
The amount of straw should be
cut down more and more each few
days and finally a soft dirt bed SUBJ
stituted for this. lessening the soft
ness of this bed day by day until
finally tackllne is done on a field ex-
actly similar to a football field"
Perfect 1'ackling.
Fishers method of tackling is
absolutely rigid. in, its require
ments. He compels his men to dive
entirely off their feet, tackle with
the left hand under and the right
hand over. first clasping the dummy
slightly below the knees with the
left arm and clinching it with the
right, thus preventing chances OF
ST. piping off
He insists that the tackler keer
his hold Of the swinging dummy
until it is "downed"-that Is. has
reached its farthest point. And
tackling practice is held not cnce In
awh lc. but every day Of the football
season.

Hand Il to BROOKLYN.

Hand II to Squire Ebbets and the
whole Brooklyn ball club for being
about the sauarest fellows who ever
came down the road.
Shortstop Joey Sewell of the
Cleveland Indians is not eligible to
compete on the coming world series
because bis contract was not pro-
mulgated early enough.
The world knows that with Sewell
out of the Cleveland lineup the in
field would be a shaky proposition.
Manager Iris Speaker made a spe-
cial request OF the Brooklyn club
asking them to allow Sewell to take
part in the big money games.
And the Brooklyn club has shown
its good sportmanship by answering
In the affirmative despite the fact
that the presence OF Sewell In the
Indians lineup might mean the los
er's end of the big series purse to
them. Sewell has been keeping the
Tribe In fight by his timely hitting
since joining the club.
Sewell's case Is exceptional In that
he is filling the place left vacant by
the tragic death of Ray Chapman
last August. 1t was on these grounds
that Speaker made his request.
Well say that those Brooklyn OF.
f'cials and players are real sports
men.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.-What's the

"And for two prime There
are two sides to all football train
ing, the defense and the offense.
Training in tackling is training
for both sides, 1t trains for the de-
Tense by hardening a man SO that
he isn't knocked out by every spill
he receives. 1t trains for the Of

could be more important?
Hours OF 1t.
There is evidence that Fisher be-
| lieves thoroughly in his theory, for
hours and hours are spent every day
by his candidates tackling the dunn

practicing falls from tackling.
His huskies are coached in every
technical point of tackling until il
becomes an instinct for them to
tackle, hard, low and swiftly.

Morgan A. C., of this city. have COM
pleted their thirteenth season as a

most successful seasons that n
team has ever enjoyed. Despite the
length of time that the Morgans

change in management and a num-
Der of players. there are still several
of the "old timers" who are in there
with lots of pep. The team this sea-
son opened up on May 2nd in a bril-
liant game against the Empire A. G.,
of New Brunswick. They Won this
game by 17-5.
Fans Do Not Support.
One of the disappointments of the
season was the lack of support by
the fans. The team started off with
a rush and brought the best teams
in the metropolitan district to
South Amboy. This cost money and
the fans failed to come across" AS
the result the latter part Of the sea-
son was spent on the road and the
team was even more successful than
at home.

AI.EDO BOY IN
ROLE Of HERO


William Hawks, 16-year-old son

of Aledo, was the hero Of . near
tragedy at q swimming hole in the
Edwards river near this city, yes
terday. Jimmie, 1O-year-old son Of
Mr.. and Mrs. L. P. Delk Of this city,
went in the river and got beyond
his depth. He was not noticed by
his companions until his cry for
help was heard. Hawks, who was
putting on his clothes following q
swim, saw the lad struggling in the
middle Of the river. He immediate
ly threw off what few clothes he
had put on and went to the rescue
OF the smaller boy. All the other
lads in the group were SO scared
that they were unable to go to the
assistance of their companion.
When Hawks reached the drowning
lad the boy had gone under twice.
Directing the boy to hold to his
shoulder the rescuer started for the
shore. The smaller lad was unable
to assist himself and allowed his
hand to secure a grip on the leg OF
his rescuer. Thus handicapped the
older boy had a hard time to reach
the shore but was successful, and
two hours later both boys were
completely recovered.
