Buff is net only .he bantam cham

was the holder of the hyweight tue
when he met Pete Herman and won
the bantam crown.
The fact that Buff is thlrty-one
years old makes a lot or peopie
doubtful as to his ability to retain
the bantam crown any great length
of time. 1t IS figured that his years
will make him easy prey for some ol
the younger bantams.
Those who See disaster ahead for
Ruff fail to take into consideration
the names of life which he leads.
The gay white way has no appear TOT
the new champion. He much prefers
his own fir.side. buff is marrleo
and the father of three children.
II is customary for mos hghters
to break training in q most torclple
manner after winning a title. Not
so with Buff. 1t is a rather amuslils
fact hat he celebrated his Victory
over Herman by rowing from the

on the Raritan Copper Works field
this afternoon. The game will get

will attend.
The Senior and Junior class teams,
undefeated in this series to date. will
be the contestants in the game this
afternoon and both combinations
will give the best that Is in them in
order to win this game and the
championship. This series arranged
by Coach Robert s. Waddell vas tht
first football in which the students
of the local high school took an in
terest in a great many years.
The Seniors are credited witt
wins ove the Freshman and Sopho-
more teams. while the Juniors de-
feated the Freshmen and played a
tie game with the Sophomores. Fol-
lowing this game il Is likely that the
coach will pick an all-interclass
team, and it is probable hat the
winner of the game will be given the
most positions on this team.
All four teams displayed real class
and gameness in the contests played
to date, and it is believed Coach
Waddell will meet with great sue
cess when he starts forming a var

HERE THIS WEEK
Strong New York Team Will
Play Y. M. H. A. Seniors
Here

The Athens Big Five OF New York,
composed of former players on the
Commerce High School team and
the Settlement Five. will oppose the
Y. NJ. II. A. senior team on the
local Y. NJ. II. A. court next Thurs
day night. Last Thursday night
Manager Levine's quintet defeated
the strong Cpd street Y. NJ. III. A.
team in an interesting game on the
local court.
Judging from the showing OF the
combination coached by Rufus Allen
against the strong New York team
in the opening game on the sched-
ule, great things a be expected
once the season gets in full swing.
Charley Sher, Tottenville star. will
surely play as important a part in
the work Of the team this season as
last, and with Gene" Parker and
Newmark, new additions TO the
quintet this season, the Y. NJ. G. A.
should enjoy a successful year.
In the games last week the locals
were pitted against a fast, scrappy
gang OF tossers. The play Of the
visitors was featured by their ability
to get the ball away in quick fash
ion. The steady fighting method OF
the local players was alone respon-
sible for the outcome of the game.
for although behind during the
greater part of the game, Devine's
| players ended the game a suitable
| margin to the good.
1t is not known how the Amboy
team will take the court for the
game this Thursday.

Orange Big Five quintet which re-
lost a hard fought game to
the Speedway team Of this oity, will
furnish the opposition to the
"Caseys' in this game. The contest
will be played on the Woodbridge
High School court.
No announcement has been made
in regard to the lineup of the
knights OF Columbus team for this
game, but it Is practically certain
that Bob Risley, crack Newark bas-
keteer, will be found in the pivot
position when the game gets under
way. Risley, o former CT. Benedict
Prep school star. is at present maxi
ing his home in Woodbridge, and 1t
is believed that the lineup of
Trainers team will be built around
him.
Trainers combination, according
to previous announcement, expects
to be an active contender for the
championship OF Woodbridge, Mid.
diesex county and the third con-
gressional district. For this reason
it is believed the "Casep" manager
will place his strongest team On
the court to oppose the strong Or
ange team in an effort to start the
season as successful as other con-
tenders in this county.
1t il probable that there will be
a girls game as a preliminary at.
traction to the OrangesKnights of
