ELIZABETH )
IN TRAINING
Team Hopes to Break Speed
way Streak Ward in
Pivot Position.

As hard as they have trained for
any boxing bout, George Ward and
the members OF his Fighting Big
Five of Elizabeth, are practicing for
their game with the Perth Amboy
Speedway quintet on the Auditorium
court in this city on Saturday night.
They feel 1t would be as great a VIC
tory as they ever scored in a ring, II
they could defeat the Speedways and
break the locals streak of twelve
straight wins.
The Elizabeth basketball tossers
annually engage in a number OF con-
tests every season in this state and
New York, and a victory over the
Perth Amboy representatives would
boost the stock of the Fighting Five
considerably. 1t is not known how
the team will take the court but
it is probable that Ward will be
found in the pivot position when the
game gets under way.
The Speedways r meeting all
opposition, and although they are
DESTROYS of preserving their streak,
the members of the team feel tina
il there is a team capable of Seak-
ing this streak, the Auditorium rep
resentatives are ready to meet that
team. The best basketball obtain
able whether a victory for h home
team or the visitors, that Is the $40
gan of the Speedway management
Last week the South Amboy Junior
Mechanics were defeated, and next
week the strongest Y. NJ. II. A. In
the state, the Jersey City quintet
will pIay here. After that 1t is prob
able that another county quintet
will be given a crack at the Speed
way scalp.

with the Hoplites quintet of the
First Presbyterian church of New

DEER SEASON
OPENSOEC. IS
Army of Sportsmen Will In
wade South Jersey at
That Time

Down in the heart of the cedar
swamps of South Jersey, in the
deep pine woods of central counties
and through the mountainous areas
of the upper Delaware valley, where
the aspect of nature has changed
but little since the red man roamed
there, an army of sportsmen will
sally forth on December 16 for prob
ably the greatest venison hunt ever
held in New Jersey. On that day
buck deer will become legal game
and the a will extend to De-
cember 20. giving the deer hunters.
with Sunday excluded, four days OF
sport. The fact that more than 500
deer were bagged during the open
season last year is expected to at
tract to the hunt an unprecedented
host of nimrods.
Sportsmen who have made trips
through the deer woods during the
past month tell of seeing many
herds, with q fair percentage OF
bucks. During the continued dry
weather of late summer and early
fall, most of the deer retreated to
the swamps but with the more re-
cent rains, they r reported again
on the uplands and in the big for
ests of pine and scrub oak that
cover hundreds of square miles of
central and southern counties. In
the upper counties, especially War
ern and Sussex, the deer are report
ed also to be plentiful, many having
escaped from the states big game
reserve at Buckwood Park, near
Delaware Water Gap.
The Jersey game law protects
does and fawns and the value or
the act as a conservation measure
Is seer in the continued increase OF
deer during recent years. Only those
buck deer, with horns visible above
the hair, may be shot. This provi-
sion of the law is credited with pre-
venting accidents among deer hunt
ers, as it compels the hunter to act
ually see the horns and identify the
game before he shoots.
In hunting deer it is illegal to use
;.ny rifle or any firearm of a smaller
caiibre than IL gauge, or to use
missiles larger than buckshot, or to
hunt at night, or to hunt with dogs.
A hunter is limited to n buck a
year and when he kills a deer, he
must report the fact to the nearest
game warden or to the State Fish
and Game Commission within forty
eight hours, under 800 penalty for
failure to so report.

GAME OF GOLF HAS
TEN COM MANDMENTS

The ten commandments in gOl1
are:
Keep your eye on the ball.
Don't hurry the swing. the cluI
will eventually reach the ball.
Practice, rather than competitive
play, perfects the swing.
Remember that accuracy Is as es-
sential as distance.
Don't get the impression that It Is
possible for one person to absorb all
the golf knowledge. Briefly, don
get chesty.
Never prevaricate in order to re-
tain your prestige. You are only
fooling yourself.
Remember that most of the great
players make but little fuss about
their game.
Don't neglect your short \Eams
Remember that many a match i
decided on the greens.
Don't lose your poise and temper
when things break badly. Any ont
can be a fair weather sailor
Concentrated Think only of youa
game when playing golf.
