H. s, VARSITY
SEASON OPENS
Keyport to Play Local Boys
Team on Local
Court

Some idea of the success of the
methods used by Coach Robert S.
Waddell in basketball will be gained
as q result of the court contest
scheduled to be played on the local
high school court this afternoon.
The Perth Amboy high school team
is scheduled to lock horns with the
Keyport high school representatives.
1t Is the first game of the season for
the locals.
The game is expected to get under
way promptly at 3:45 o'clock. Coach
Waddell has not %announc, l his line
up for the game today. Even though
there are a number Of veterans from
last years team there are reasons
to believe hat the coach will give
every candidate showing real ability
a chance to show his wares in the
regalia of the Crimson and White,
Early in the season the coach an
nounced that a squad of candidates
would be kept in readiness for action
in varsity games, for in this. way it
is possible to always have a good
team, and loss by injuries or studies
can be disregarded.
Although Keyport has practically
the same lineup as represented that
school the last few seasons, Amboy
will receive greater opposition today
than ever before because of the fact
that the Keyport team has partici-
pated in a number of games this
season. The Keyport team recently
received a trimming from the Pas
sale high school wonder team"
Ed Patten is manager of the local
team this season and Charley
Hughes was recently chosen captain.
At the completion of the final
workout Of the candidates for the
varsity team yesterday afternoon, il
was limited that t,n following men
may be the first choice for the game
today, Cohen. Henry Westcott,
Preacher. Ratajak, Kochek, Hughes
and Martin.

their opponents from the field thir-

SOUTH AMBOY. Jan. 6.-St.
Mary's Varsity emphasized their
superiority over the Alumni when
they again defeated the latter COM

Rated as a perfect forward and
coming with strong recommendation
from Holy Cross, Joe Meacham was
stopped early in the game, and did
not mean anything in the obstacle
line until the secord half when the
game a well sewed up.
The clever floor work of Nc
Donell and Fitzmorris, probably was
a ear of inspiration to the young
players. Mcdonnell tailed twelve
counts while Fitzmorris made ten
counts.
Tom Kennedy. the tall center of

One more match in the two-man
bowling tournament at the Y. NJ. G.
A. was rolled off last night, leaving
only two more contests on the sched-
ule. Johnson and johnson won two
out of three games from Olsen and

Perth Amboy evening news., 1922-01-06

as g. result the team work of the
home combination was not as good
as in former games in which this
player took part. Gene Parker was
the scoring star for the home team
in this game, making nine points as
a result of four field and one foul
goals. Only five field goals were
made by the locals, Match" gar
kus scoring the other two pointer.
Levine's team took the floor with
Parker, Daitz, LoweEkopf. Newmark
and Schwartzman, and later in the
game Lowenkopf who started at
center, went to guard and Newmark
jumped center. Daitz was also shift
ed from forward to guard in place
of ~SchwartZman and Karkus went
to forward.
Coach Robert s. Waddell was the
eleventh man on the floor in this
game, and his work livened up the
game considerably making the con-
test much more interesting than the
score would indicate.

full distance with the Senate qualifying its
approval OF bonds by the insertion OF a ref

direction; it should go the length necessary

Deferment of the bond issue for q popular

cannot afford to lose that year; too many
years have been lost already. and tho peo-

over, no referendum Is necessary in this
case, for the people of Virginia have clearly
declared their readiness to go forward
Many Of the advantageous aspects of the

superior advantages OF Richmond as a center

fine cooperative effort that has been made
by local dealers In arranging the annual ex-
