e~ighty-five goats were among the
assets and their presence has al

NEGRO ASSEMBLYMAN
PRESIDES OVER HOUSE

TRENTON, March 31.-For the
first time in the history of New Jer-
sey at least, If not in the history
of the United States, a colored man
yesterday presided over a legislative
body when this honor was accorded
Assemblyman Walter G.. Alexander,
the representative of that race from
Essex county. Mr.. Alexander was
called to the rostrum of the House
CT assembly and given the gavel
by Speaker Hobart and during the
period the colored member was in
the chair, the Rev. Warren Patten
Coon, the minister from Essex. in
troduced a resolution copgratulating
the temporary speaker on the fact
that he had the honor OF being the
first colcred man to occupy the
speakers chair in the country's his
tory.
The sense of the resolution was
disputed by Col. E. c. Stahl, a Civil
war veteran and veteran journalist,
present at the time. The Colonel
said that in one of the Carolina Leg
islatures, during the reconstruction
days. a colored nan presided because
of the fact that the lawmaking body
vas made up wholly of men of this
race. However, it is the first incident
of its kind in the state of New Jer-
sey.
Among the measures passed by the
House of assembly yesterday were
the following:
Senator Mackay, amendment to
the state constitution providing that
sheriffs may succeed themselves and
increasing the term from three to
five years; Assemblyman Franklin,
permitting a wife, by power of at
torney, to convey her real estate
without the husband joining in the
deed; Assemblyman Corie, requiring
jitney n to carry a policy of
$4,000 to protect patrons against
accidents: Senator Mackay, permits
the State Highway Department to
dispose of property in Bergen coun-
ty originally as required to be a part
of Route 10, from Fort Lee Ferry
by the way of Bluff road.

A lot of people, including the genial Willie Hoppe himself, got quite a shock of surprise when Young Jake Schaefer annexed the wsr1d's

 In outlining his plans for the or gan1zation of school basketball leagues, P. V. Gahan, Recreation Board secretary, said yesterday that there will probably be 50 or more teams. boys and girls, in the East Si6s and West Side champi onships this season, the East Side leagues to con tain as many 20 teams.
 Secretatfy Gahan is now at work on organization f.1ans and hopes to get the tournaments underway with in a week or so.
 This season the teams will be di- vlded into two classes, A and B, class A league to bs made up of teams winning 500 per cent. or more of their games last season, while the class B organization will be composed of clubs that finished lower. Under this plan, explained Mir. Gahan, the competf- tors will be capitalized, as well as st!nnulatlng interest in weaker schools with smaller enrolln nents.
 Last season the Parochfal School League was represented by five teams and indications point to an increase also in that combination.
 In the public school leagues the games will be played in the Maple wood gym, and possibly the Black Rock clubhouse will also be used a part of the season Games in the the municipal gym on Stratfoxd ave- nuo.
