BY a score of 20 to % the Perth
Amboy Five took the scalps Of Bill
Manning's Hoboken All-Stars at the
Auditorium court Saturday night
bringing the locals record up to
eleven victories out of twelve starts.
The Amboy dribblers led by a 1879
tally at the expiration of the first
session and during the second per-
iod retained the same lead giving
them a win over the Hoboken quin-
tet by a seven point margin.
When the local ~favorites took thI
floor and the fans noticed that bota
Hank" Thomas and Pete Hanson
were missing, Pete being out with an
injured leg, it was generally concec-
ed that the home-boys were in for
their first defeat on their own court.
But even in the face of their great
handicap, old reliable "Blackie" Re-
gan came to the fore and playing
one of the best games of his career.

of twenty points.

SOLDIER ALLEN
T.. ISSUES A Def
Willing to Fight Terio at Any
Place and at Any
Time

Jack Allen, Camp Vail soldier
whose home is in T~ottenville, issued
a challenge on Saturday through his
manager, Joe Honan, the popular
Fighting Waiter, regarding his will
ingness to battle Fanny Terio of this
city at any time or at any place.
Boxing fans in this city can point
back to the night of the Police Mu-
tual Aid society show in the local
auditorium when Aliens opponent
failed to appear and the soldier box
er vas DESTROYS of participating III
a bout that night. Terio challenged
Allen but the soldier refused to fight
the local light heavyweight because
of the weight difference.
Now Allen comes back with a re-
turn challenge and he has announc-
ed that he will make a wager of any
denomination that the New Bruins
wick emu fighter will not last
three rounds in the ring with him.
Allen does not care what weight his
opponent may have.
Regarding his recent scheduled
appearance on the Center A. C. card,
Allen relates that he was in the hos
pital with a sprained ankle at the
time and a buddy who arranged the
bout was hopeful that his injury
would not prevent him from going
on with the match.
Now it is up to Terio to accept or
reject Aliens offer.

time, but same was cut down by the
visitors in the closing minutes of
play and a foul by Patterson as the
whistle blew gave the Asbury Park
outfit the lead, Is to Is at half time.
The Speedways showed plenty of
speed at the start of the final per-
iod and soon hung up what appeared
to be a safe lead. Loose playing in
the closing minutes enabled the
home club to knot the score and it
was necessary to play a special five
minute session. The score at the
termination of forty minutes of play
was 20 to 20.
