OCALA HIGH SCHOOL
SCORES DOUBLE VICTORY

Saturday night was large one in
Its two basketball teams were vic
torious over their opponents and both
teams won by large scores. The re-
porter was unable to be in two places
at the same time, so he witnessed the
boys game in Ocala and has collected
all the hearsay evidence possible about
the girls game in Leesburg.
Ocala, 80; Melrose, A
The Ocala boys had little trouble in
running up good score against the
Melrose team on the Ocala court. The
Melrose team was outclassed in every
respect. Their passing was inefficient
and they attempted to shoot goals
too far down the court, either because
they were unable to carry the ball
any closer or because they thought
they could throw them from there.
The only field goal made by Melrose
was thrown by H. Brown from the
center of the court. In addition to
this beautiful shot Brown threw two
foul goals which was the sum total
of the visitors scoring.
The Ocala boys played good game.
They have shown marked improve
ment since their last game. Frank
Knight and A. T. Thomas divided the
honors in goals about even with
Knight in the lead. Knight threw
seventeen points and Thomas threw
13. Knight was the best player on
Sc the court in this game. He was in ev-
cry play no matter where the ball
was The team work of the Ocala
boys is excellent. 1t is by their com.
bined efforts and not by the work OF
any individual star that the team is
showing such good form.
Ocala, 80; Leesburg, 8
About thirty Ocala players and fans
went to Leesburg Saturday Afternoon
to see the Ocala girls trim the Lake
county girls. These spectators viii
agree that the Ocala team never play
ed a more consistent game. 1t was &
fight from the word go to the last sec
ond of play Better teamwork wa:
displayed than the girls have ever yet
shown and the forwards have improv
ed vastly in shooting goals. Rumol
has it that Brent Woods cannot mis-
q shot now. 1t seems that she hat
the ball hoodooed Saturday night ant
every toss she made was a goal. He
partner in the forward garden was OF
the job as usual. Nature has decreet
that Estelle Wilkes cannot throw
goals over the head of a tall guar,
so Estelle slips around the court lik,
CREASED lightning and secures the bal
for Brent, even if she has to bow
over both opposing guards to do SO
After Wilkes gets the ball, Wood
shoots the goal. Team work is tn,
keynote of the teams success. The,
are working together like well ollie,
piece of machinery. The Ocala girl
are in line for the tournament whicl
will decide the state championship
Ocala has played eight games an
won six of them. She plays Concor
dia next week, then Duval and Gaines
vile. If she can win a majority o
these games she will be in line fo
the state tournament which will b
held March 10th and 17th in DeLan
to decide who is state champion by
process of elimination.

WANT
INCREASE OF NOT
OVER S25O0 IN BUDGET
Trial Total of Tentative Bud
get Showed $75, 900 In
CreaSe--WiII Cut it Down

NEW BRUNSWICK, Dec. 15.--
The Board of Freholders yesterday
Iabulated for the first time the var
ious appropriations suggested for
the 1923 budget and learned that
the total was approximately $4,000
in excess of this years figures. The
county board members at once oe-
gan to itemize the tentative appro-
priations in an effort to cut down
! this increase and, after several hours
of work, had reduced the figures to
an amount between $4,000 and
$50. 600.
Not satisfied with that figure the
freeholders decided not to adopt the
budget ordinance yesterday. hut to
wait another week and in the mean
time to continue cutting down ap-
propriations so that, if possible, the
increase would be cut down to less
than $4,000.
The 1928 budget is causing the
freeholders much concern, as they
are attempting to Keep down the
tax rate and at the, same time real
ize the necessity of additional ap-
preparations in some cases. Adop-
ton of the ordinance was deferred
one week, in order that more time
might be spent in studying the va
rious items.
Upon the advice of County Engi-
neer Schneider the freeholders re-
jected the two bids on the paving
Of Bordentown avenue, South AM
boy, between the trolley tracks and
o. short distance on either side OF
the tracks from Broadway to Ste
yens avenue The bid of Liddle &
Pfeiffer was twice that of Public
Service Company, but owing to the
fact that the latter failed to ac-
company its bid by a certified check
the bid could not be accepted. The
county will readvertise.
Freebooter Applegate had re-
ferred to him the matter of remedy
ing conditions at George and ThonI-
as streets, South River. A letter to
the board stated that after every
rain the street at this point con-
tanned numerous puddles. The in

sary at this point. it was said

ALDERMEN ACT
ON CITY bUDGET I
Indications Are That City
Boards Will Not Get In
creaSes Requested

The aldermen last night worked
for about four more hours over the
1928 budget in an effort to formu-
late a tentative budget which will
be considered further at the regular
committee session tonight. Last
nights session was strictly private
and Alderman-at-large Richard j.
Calvin would not say anything this
morning as to what consideration
had been given the requests of the
various municipal boards made
Wednesday night for increases.
1t is an assured fact that all OF
the boards will not secure the 1928
appropriation they have asked for.
Whether any of them will receive
the full amount of their request is 4
question. The aldermen, realizing
they will be asked to finance some
large projects next year, including
the new school, new, sewer system
and grade crossing elimination
changes to streets and property,
have been endeavoring at all bud
get sessions to keep down other
costs to the minimum.
Four of the city boards had rep
resentatives at Wednesday nights
meeting of the aldermen, each
board requesting an increased ap-
preparation and feeling that such
an increase is a necessity If their
work is to be conscientiously done.
The City Plan Commission wants
$4,000 or $1,000 in order to go
ahead with its important work Of
preparing Perth Amboy for future
development. This year the City
Plan Commission received $4,000.
The Health Board wants an increase
of about $1,000 chiefly in order
that the school children OF the city
might be protected from diphthe-
ria by the use of the Schick method
of preventing the spread OF this
disease. The Library Board asks
an increase Of $4,000. its members
pointing out that the present APP
preparation is not sufficient for the
maintenance in a proper manner Of
the most used civic center in the
city The Park Board now that it
has two additions to Bay View Park
to improve and care for, request an
additional $4,000 to cover this cost
and to make slight improvements
to the other parks in the city.

GUILTY OF PERJURY
IN HALL MURDER
SENTENCED BY DIAL Y
Charges of of Pearl Bahmet
Against Schneider Are
Dropped

NEW BRUNSWICK, Dec. 1B.-~
Raymond Schneider. found guilty
of perjury in giving testimony in
connection with the HalI-MiIlu
murder case, was this morning sens
fenced by Judge Peter f. DAILY to =
full term in the state reformatory
at Railway. Judge DAILY said he
would not send Schneider to state
prison owing to his youth and the
decent family from which he comes
Schneider, who accused Clifford
Hayes, another New Brunswick
youth, with the double murder
shortly after the investigation into
the mystery had been started ana
a reward was offered for informas-
ton leading to the arrest of the gull
ty party, later admitted that t:ia
alleged confession" duplicating
Hayes was not true.
During his trial on the perjury
charge Schneider said he had been
forced into making the original
confession" against Hayes by the
authorities who resorted to all sorts
of tactics.
Judge DAILY this morning said r1s
cJuld not understand how a man
could be guilty of making a state-
ment such as Schneider did, impIl-
eating a man who has been his
friend.
Schneider was also indicted on a
serious charge made by Pearl Bah
mer, the girl who was with him
when he discovered the bodies OF
the slain rector, Rev. Edward
Wheeler Hall, and his choirIeader.
Mrs. Eleanor Reinhardt Mills. This
indictment was nolle pressed on
motion of Prosecutor Stricken who
declared that the state would exper-
fence difficulty in returning con-
viction against Schneider on the
charge owing to the reputation Of
the BANNER girl and the lack OF
weight her word carried.
In connection with this second
charge Judge DAILY said that IL by
any chance Schneider was tried on
the girls charge and found guilty
the sentence would run concurrent-
ly with that imposed upon him for
perjury.
