WINS ANOTHER
Boys Varsity Defeats Leonardo
Yesterday, 28-5
(B. H. s. Correspondent

The Boys High School Varsity
won the third victory and h second
league game Of the season in the gym
yesterday afternoon when they de-
feated Leonardo by the score Of rs to
5.
The local quontet was the first to
score when Hansen dropped In a foul
called on Napier. This was soon fol-
lowed up by g. double pointer mads
by Lewkowitz. The Amboy dribblers
then scored at will. Lewkowitz was
high score man, making six field
goals. Hansen and Splitter forgot
their guard and each dropped In a
double pointer. Splitter made a long
dribbie down the floor prior to max
ing his goal. Lewkowitz made two
of his goa.s by jumping the ball In the
basket. Hansen succeeded in making
good four fouls out Of five tries
During this time the Amboy for
wards held the combination from
Leonardo practically score ess. Will
liams of the opposing team made the
only pointers of the half for them
securing one field goal. The end Of
the first half found the local quintet
In the lead by twenty points. the
score being 22-2.
1t was advertised that there would
be a double-header yesterday after
noon, the girls also being scheduled to
play. but or account Of a disagree
ment on the regulations. no game took
place. The local girls play only girls
rules, while the Leonardo girls in
sisted on playing boys rules. The To-
cal girls will travel to Plainfeld to-
morrow, where they will play a re-
turn game with North Platnield.
The second half of the boys game
again found each team trying to score
first. Amboy again succeeded when
Splitter dropped in q double pointer
from a difficult anglt on the floor.
This ha:f found W new faces in the
lineup of the opposing team, Naugh-
ton replacing Napier and Penterwar
replacing Williams.
Soon after the second q begun
Silver was sent in to replace Hansen,
Sofeld replaced Cohen. and Vreeland
replaced Lewkowitz on the Amboy
team. All these men made a good
showing, Vreeland and Sofeld each
securing q double pointer. Kelly. of
the opposing team, thrilled h on
lockers by making good a long shot.
The most noticeable feature about
the game was the fine passing done
by the local quintette. Cheering from
the sid lines kept up the enthusiasm.
Under the leadership of Red"
Stocked. ably assisted by Dave Rich
mond, the high school pupils made
the gym ring.
Tomorrow n of the biggest games
of the season will be played in the
gym, when the crack combination of
Neptune high will play the local boys

greatest defeats that Amboy ever had.
This year. however. they are backing
