-SPEEDWAYS VS.
NORWOOD FIVE
Game Will Be Played on Long
Branch Court To-
night

The second game of the series be-
tween the Perth Amboy Speedways
and the Norwoods OF Long Branch
will be played in Long Branch to-
night. The Speedways swamped the
Long Branch team IN a game on the
Auditorium court in this city o
a month ago, and the players are
confident tlet they will repeat on the
Monmouth county teams court In
the contest tonight.
The Norwoods will take the court
with practically the same team as
represented the outfit on the court in
the game here, with the exception
that Bob Grody, New York Giant
pitcher, will occupy the pivot posi-
ton, and "Eoc" Risner will play in
one of the forward positions. Raf-
ferty and Heiles are scheduled TO
perform in the guarding positions,
while the fifth man has not been de-
cided on as yet.
The lineup of the Speedways for
this game has not been decided on
as yet. and it Is probable that a
number of new faces will appear In
the outfit of the Speedway represen-
tative team in this game. The
Speedways made q real showing In
Long Branch ami vicinity last sea-
son, and they are DESTROYS OF repeat
ing again tbs season.
The Norwoods have been going
great on their home court since play
ing the Speedways in this city. Man
ager Van Dykes team plays regular
ly every Saturday bur the game to-
night was arranged specially because
of the fact that the Speedways also
play at home on Saturday night.

MARION GIRLS
PERFORM HERE
Will Play Centers on Auditori-
UNI Court This Saturday
Night

The Marion girls of Paterson,
recognized as the leading girls quin-
tet in the northern section of the
state, have been booked to play the
Roosevelt Center girls in the prelim-
mary game on tbs Auditorium court
in this city on Saturday night. The
Paterson quintet has made a won
derful record on the court in games
played to date this season.
Possibly the best record aver COM
piled by a girls quintet in this Sec
ton IL that credited to the Central
girls. They have met many OF the
leading quintets In this state and
New York. and have not been de-
feated in their last ten appearances
played by this team were staged on
the Auditorium court in this city.
Early in the season the Centers
ing the field for the girls champion
ship of Middlesex county, and sep
arately the championship of Roose-
welt which is now known as Carteret.
Every team in the county has been
played and defeated by the Centers
with the exception of the Wheelers
OF Carteret. and Il is believed that
the arranging of a game between
these two teams is still far distant.
In Miss Eva Schechtman, the Gen.
ters have one of the leading female
basketball tossers In this state. Miss

basketball tossers who have per-

G|ochau And |rv Martin
With Roosevelt Team

With Freddy G1ochau and posi-
1ly Leon Roth of this city. and Irv
Martin of Woodbridge. the Roose-
velt Separates will appear on the
Auditorium court Saturday night to
Engage in the first game of a series
with the Perth Amboy Speedway
quintet. This announcement was
made this morning by Jerome
Jacobowitz, manager Of the Roose-
welt Separate team.
Glochau is well known in this Sec
ton. having performed with various
teams. including the Parish House
quintet of Woodbridge, Harmony
>ive, Somerville Knights Of Column
bus and Matawan. He is considered
one of the leading courtsters in
Middlesex county.
The acquisition OF Roth to the
roster OF the Separates will also
materially strengthen that team for
the first game of the series with the
Speedways. Roth has played with
the Elmores, PAGERS, Harmony five
and numerous other combinations
in this vicinity.
Irv Martin is the star pivot man
OF the Woodbridge Parish House
quintet. and he has played an i'm
portant part in the successes of that
team on the court this season. Mar
tin occupied the pivot position for
abe Speedway team last season. and
also in a number Of games this year.
Perth Amboy evening news., 1921-12-28

With Glochau, Roth, Martin. "Yf'
Hubbard and Sam Dubrow, the lat
ter a crack of the Y. NJ. II. A. repre-
sentative team of this city several
seasons ago, the Separates will have
a strong quintet on the court.
Carteret fans want a victory over
the Speedways greater than any
other sport success. The fans from
Carteret have been bitter rivals of
Perth Amboy in all branches of
sport. particularly in baseball and
boxing. Last Monday night over
one hundred fans from Carteret
turned out to root for the Fotten-
Vile quintet against the SpeedwAys,
and when the Tottenville team was
finally defeated the Carteret fans
returned home dissatisfied, vowing
to come here this Saturday night to
root for q Carteret victory over the
Perth Amboy representatives.
The game on Saturday night is
the. first of a series between these
twd quintets, and the second game
will probably be played on the new
auditorium court in Carteret early
in the new year. Home games of
the Carteret team will be played on
Sunday night.
Gene Parker will be the eleventh
mar on the floor in this game.
There will be a preliminary game
between the Roosevelt Centers and
the Marions of Paterson.

The production is in a consider

Miss Talmadge opportunity for some
bits of the superb emotional acting
thar has made her SO popular as a
screen star. AS Jacqueline Boggs.
the only daughter of the American
Hog King, a finished product OF a
French convent, she Is irresistibly
droll. As Mrs. Donald Mannerby she
becomes a dramatic figure, and once
again her fathers daughter. she is
tragic. One advantage, however,
which a drama of love has over a
drama of life is that a happy end
ing Is possible, and n comes in a
very satisfying manner in The

DETER'S TEAM
ON H. S. COURT
Parish House Quintet Opens
on New Home Court
With Victory

The Woodbridge Parish House
quintet has played it's last game on
the famous Parish House court this
season. Last night the Parish House
boys opened on their new home
court, the Woodbridge High schoc:
auditorium in a game with the Sep
arates of Roosevelt. The Wood
bridge boys had an easy time regis
tering a victory, the final score being
47-17. .
According to present arrange
ments Manager Deter will play all
home games on the school court
every Tuesday night, and judging
from the showing of his team in the
game last night the followers of the
combination should witness as good
basketball as was exhibited on the
Parish House court previously this
season and in former seasons.
Sensational shots by Torch and
the Martin brothers featured the
game last night, these three players
registering nineteen double counters.
Mesick, who was recently injured in
a football game, was again in action
on the court last night. The visitors
low score was mainly due to the in
ability of the visiting forwards to
break through the defense built. up
by Hughes and Mesick.
At half time the score was 20-6.
Cutter and Dubow were high score
men for the Separates. 1t was the
Separates fourth game of the sea-
son, having previously won two con-
tests and lost one. Buckley was the
eleventh man on the floor in the
game last night.

ARGUE ON MERITS
OF c E DEALS

Whenever a trade of any impor-
lance is made. there is always much
argument as to the relative merits of
the deal.
There is no argument as far as
the New York-Boston transaction Is
concerned. 1t was all New York.
In Joe Bush and Sam Jones, the
Yankees acquire two great pitch
ers. In Everett Scott. New York
gets one of the greatest shortstops
in the history OF the game.
In return for Scott, the Yankees
gave one of the games best infieldJ
ers, Peckinpaugh. That part of the
Transaction is about all even.
The pitching n of It IL all New
York. Boston gets Jack Quinn, a
veteran pitcher, who always did good
work. but who has passed the peak
Of his usefulness, and il fast going
the other way.
rip" Collins is a pitcher who has
as much stun as any pitcher that
ever graced q pitching mound. Con-
troll however Is unknown to RIP"
He just throws the old pill and has
hopes. incidentally he doesn't take
the pastime seriously. Probably he
would much prefer pitching for dear
old Dallas. Texas. the salary being
equal.
Percy is a young pitcher with a
world Of stun and great possibilities.
1t will be up to him to make the
most of them.
There is no argument on the Bos-
ton side OF the deal, New York
skinned all the cream.
The deal between Cleveland and
Boston is far more interesting. Since
the trade was put over, baseball
fans all over the country have been
trying to dope u what 1t means to
the two clubs involved.
In McInnis, Cleveland gets a
great first baseman. 1t Is impossible
to compute the real value of a star
player like McInnis. His presence
in the infield steadies the entire
combination, adds confidence to the
entire club. the rest of the infield
in particular. in addition to being
one Of the greatest fielders in the
game. he is a fine hitter and a brainy
ball player.
Cleveland ball club Is going to add
much strength to the team. A great
deal more than appears IN the sur
face.
The Boston-Cleveland Teal really
resolves itself into a comparison be-
tween Smith and McInnis. The
other players who figured are purely
incidental.
Smith is a hard hitter against
right-handed pitching. He has never
done much against southpaws. Late
III he has greatly improved his field
liir.
r2If I was manager of a ball club I
hate to lose Smith. II 1t was
necessary to part with him to secure
HcJnnis. I would be forced to set
side my FEELINGS and part with him.

GOING STRONG
Team of Which Thomas Is
Member Real Contender
for Title

The Gloversville team in the New
York state league, Of which David
Hank Thomas OF this city Is a
member. is going at a great pace.
Up until last Friday the Glovers-
VILE team was a half game behind

ton. Ten games are slated for the
Gioversville team during the next
two weeks.
Up until Hanks last visit to
this city the Gloversville team had
won eight straight victories. The
first half of the New York state
league race this season appears to
have developed into a nip and tuck
battle between the Gloversville and
Schenectady teams. Each combina-
ton has about fifteen games re-
manning on their schedule.
Press reports from Gloverville
are to the effect that Thomas is the
greatest find of the eason in that
circuit and that his acquisition put
the Gloversville team in the race.
