Capture First
Big County Contest

Aware of the fact that their show
Ing in the first contest against a
county basketball team would give
some idea of the strength of their
claim for Middlesex county honors,
the Y. NJ. H. a. basketball team OF
this city entered the game last night
with the Woodbridge Parish House
QUIT determined to win. and Mana
ger Levine's tossers romped away to
an easy victory to the tune of a
37-13 cor The contest was play
ed OF the Y. NJ. II. A. court and was
Witnessed by a good sized crowd.
The game was hard fought and
Interesting throughout, more q than
the score would indicate. The Parish
House boys although outplayed in
every department fought hard from
the whistle in the first session. The
Y. NJ. H. A. team took the lead early
in the game and held same through
out. PASSWORD and shooting which
labeled Manager Levine's team as a
real contender against the best op-
position in this county and district,
featured the play of the locals
throughout.
Perhaps it may be said that some
of the shots made by the Y. VI. FL.
A. players were lucky, while a num-
Der attempted by the visitors hoped
out of the basket. intimating hat
luck was against the Parish House
boys, but Manager Levine's tossers
would have won the game last night
without the aid of any shots that
might be termed lucky.
The entire LEGAL team, we'll keyed
by Coach Rufus Allen for the occa-
sion, played their best ball of the
season. Charley Sher and Match
karkus were the particular shining
lights in this game. 1t was Sher who
gave the home team their real start
in this contest, while Karkus. a real
star whose basketball development
is laid to the untiring efforts of
Coach Rufus Allen, gave a real ex-
Mbition of all-around play. particu-
lafly from the foul line. Sher scored
twice from the field and nee from
the foul line, while karkus scored
twice from the field and fourteen
out of fifteen chances from the foul
line. Newmark led the locals from
the field.
Only one basket was made by the
Parish House team in this game, a
follow-in shot by Irv Martin with
two minutes to go in the first period.
The remaining points scored by the
visiting team were divided between
Torch and Bill Martin, and were
SlOlto Twin biAC IOdA AAAAS l.
M. H. A. team played with a bril-
liant defense throughout, two men
remaining back throughout the
greater part of the game, while a
five-man defense used on several ,
occasions when the visitors had the
ball prevented the Parish House
boys from going through and result
ed in the visitors killing their own
time.
Sher scored the first point of the
game from the foul line. Nineteen
fouls were called by Coach Waddell
on the visitors and eighteen on the
home team. The referee held the
game well under control throughout
10 the satisfaction of the fans and
players of the two teams.
The Y. NJ. H. A. took the court
with Karkus. Parker. Sher. New
mark and Lowenkopf to start the
game, and only one change was
made in the lineup, Schwartzman
replacing Lowenkopf in the second
period. Wes' Hansen replaced Deter

general Offering of s6o,OO0.o00 OF Fed
eral farm loan bonds. bearing per cent.
interest, will be made tomorrow at par
and interest on behalf of the Federal
ten-twenty year series and will not be
redeemab!e before May L, 1881. They

Federal Farm Loan Board will be Alex
ander Brown g. Sons Harris. Forbes 6.
Co., Brown Brothers & Co.. Lee. Higgin-
son & Co.. the National City Company
and the Guaranty Company of New

clude more than 1000 investment bank
ers covering the United States The
bonds will be offered simultaneously to-
morrow In every investment centre of
the country and they can be bought from
investment bankers. Federal land banks
and farm loan associations.
Commenting on the offering. Secretary
Mellon said: "The public faith In farm
loan bonds was clearly manifested by
the sale of the last issue in hard mar
ket. In view OF improved conditions this
issue should be quickly absorbed"
There are now outstanding S373,790.-
500 of Federal land loan bonds of which
SlS3. 3.035, 600 Is held by the Treasury De-
partment. Thus s190.755.500 Of them Is
held by national banks, estates and in
vestors in practically every State Of

created legally as part of the banking
system OF the United States and that the
bonds issued by the banks are instru-
mentallties of the United States Govern
ment and are exempt from Federal,
State, municipal and local taxation.
Issues of outstanding bonds dated
prior to May, 1921, are redeemable five
years from date OF issue. To meet the

Congress enacted a statute authorizing
the redemption period on new issues to
begin in the eleventh year from date of
issue instead of in the sixth as hereto
fore The bonds now offered are issued
under that authority.

Another noteworthy feature OF these
orders is that all have been booked to
be shipped at makers convenience. Since
perhaps 99 per cent. of the business on
the books Is In actual specifications, all
could be shipped Immediately IL it were
physically possible TO do so. In some
cases the tonnage is sufficient to keep

mills operating through October and
possibly into November.
The American Sheet and Tin Plate
Company has reached a sheet mill sched-
clio of. rs " per cent, compared with IS

mand for black and galvanized sheets

TO week for that grade also.
While spot demand for tinplate has
fallen off considerably, there being vir-
iuaiiy no new business to figure on.
epecifications continue to come In freely.
Occasionally, however an order Is
placed on a new inquiry. The largest
os these in the last week involved 32
carloads, or approximately $4,000 boxes.
which Is understood to have been placed
at the IS base box price. The United
states Steel Corporation Is operating its
tin mills on the basis of approximately
CO per cent, which marks an increase
OF more than 3 per cent. from last week.
