ing this city.
Harry Davis, the tall center from
New York City, occupied the pivot
position and after the team had been
informed about the signals was tap

great asset to the Amboy represen-
tatives, his height and cleverness

a contract for the Perth Amboy Five
declared that he would be seen play
ing in that lineup every Saturday
night for the coming season.
Captain Hank Thomas, Blackie
Regain, Pete Hanson, Rufy Allen and
Charley Sher displayed a brand OF
bali that means trouble to all visit
ing teams and in the practice game
last night this combination gave
promise that with a few games under
its belt would be able to stack fore
es with the best.
Hank Thomas and Blackie Regain
occupied the forward positions and
teamed up well. Pete Hanson and
Chick Sher held down the guarding
Jobs to perfection. Rufy Allen re-
lieved Sher during the latter part

Series in New Brunswick
Sunday

The Perth Amboy Athletic Assoc
citation nine will travel to New
Brunswick on Sunday afternoon to
cross bats with the Landing COM
bination of New Brunswick in the
second game of the little worlds
series which will decide the dia-
mond championship of Middlesex
county.
The Landings, defeated here last
Sunday in a somewhat one-sided
fashion, will be strengthened con-
siderably this weekend in an effort
to even the series. 1t is rumored
that Reggie, of South Amboy, VINO
starred in the South during the past
summer, will do the pitching for
Manager Hefferman's team.
1t is possible that "Pud" Stinson
and "Blackie" Regain may also play
with the New Brunswick team in
Sundays contest. If the Landings
win this Sunday, a coin will be toss
ed to decide the field on which the
deciding game of the county series
will be played.
Amhoy will line up in regular
fashion with 500 and Lorenzo in the
points. The local magnates are ar
ranging to take several bus loads of
fans to the county seat and are con-
ident that they can again beat the

high school days. He Is considered
one of the most popular players in
Middlssex county today and 1t is
probable he will be reelected cap
tain of the borough quintet before
the start Of the game on Sunday
night.
To Messrs Manner and Jacobowitz
goes the credit for starting the great
court game in Roosevelt. They took
a gamble in attempting the intro
duction of the basketball sport in
: the borough and through their man

is one of the greatest sporting towns
in this section of the state. especially
in boxing and baseball and now in
basketball.
Against the Separates on Sunday
night the Woodbridge team will line
up the strongest possible. Wood
bridge is likewise in the fight for
Middlesex county honors and 1t il
probable before long an announce
ment will be made regarding the
| opening of a home court.

at the campaign meeting in the Hib-
ernian Hall last night. The district
includes the counties of Charleston,
Colleton, Clarendon, Berkeley and
Dorchester.
Mr.. Logan received much ap-
plause when he was introduced to
the audience. He said that in Con-
gress he had worked for the dis
trict, always considering the well
fare of the farmers. Mr.. Morrison
stressed the need of good roads and
an inland passage. He cited his ad
vocacy of the State Highway Com
mission and of the Santee river
bridge. Mr.. Hutto said that finan-
cial relief of the farmers would be
the first matter he. would press if
he were elected to Congress.

Mr.. Morrison announced his plat
form as one of rigid economy and
stated that he, as a farmer himself,

Mr.. Morrison said that he will

THE KETCHMO TRAP
HELPS WEEv|L CONTROL

On another page we are carrying
an advertisement Of the Christal
Ketchmo Boil Weevil Trap. This trap
has been invented by Messrs. G. G.
Christal and G. P. Gable, both of
Gable, this County. While these gen
tlemen do not make any cXtravagant
claims for their machine, they do say
that it will help control the ravages
of this pest.
The writer, while on his way to Co.
lumbia recently, stopped and talked
70 farmer on the other side of Cam
den who was using one Of these ma
chimes and he was loud in praises of
it's merits.
In the letter in the advertisement
from the McFaddin young men it
looks as though if a farmer went over
his field every day or every other day
it would only be a question of very
short time until there would not be a
weevil left in the field.
Any and al methods tending to the
determination of the wcevil, if siren
uously worked, will mean but one
thing-his damages will be brought
down to the lowest mark. The poison
method undoubtedly is good, but we
believe that the trap is the most eco
nomical and we believe that Chris
tails Ketchmo Trap is the logical ma
chine.

He also promised to work for
the relief of the unemployment
situation, saying that it was dis
grace to the country that so many
people were unable to secure en-
ployment.
MIR. Logan
Mr.. Logan, the incumbent, was
the next Congressional candidate
to speak, and as he arose and ad-
vanced to the speakers table he
was greeted with prolonged ap.
plause and was vociferously ac-
claimed at frequent intervals dur
ing his address. He spoke of the
pleasure which the privilege of
speaking to the ladies and gentle
men of Charleston accorded him
and told of the cordiality and
warmth with which he had been
received at all places in the First
district during the present CAM
paign.
In answering Mr. Morrison's re-
marks in regard to the farmers and
the representation which they had
received in Congress. Mr.. Logan
said he had always considered the
farmers in Congress and had
worked untiringly for their well
fare and betterment. He said that
he had raised his voice for the
rich and the poor, the humble and
the strong and had always worked
alongside all the people in their

Referring to the santee bridge,
Mr.. Logan stated that 100000
would be required to pay for the
construction Of this structure, $400,- {
600 to be paid by the national gov
ernment and $4,000 to be paid by /,
the counties Of Williamsburg, I,

that three-fourths Of the amount
to be paid by the three counties
would come from the taxes Of Char

He told Of instances in which
friends and acquaintance of Mr..
Hutto and Mr.. Morrison had told
him that while they considered
these gentlemen to be good men,
they did not consider them to be
qualified to represent the First dis,
trict in Congress. 4
Mr.. Logan said that he had
served in Congress the only mas4s
ter which a public man should
serve--the people-and that no per-
son from the First district had
called upon him for assistance that
did not receive it. He said that his
experience which he had gained in
Congress had qualified him to bet
ter serve the people and that he
was sure that the people would rec
ognize this and send him back to
Washington as their representative

ment of the State Highway Com
mission, and said that he was one
of the originators of the plan to
build the Santce bridge, which is
now in the course of construction,
in order that Charleston and the
lower country might be connected
with the upper section of the State.
He spoke of the farmers redeem
ing the South after the War Be-
tween the States, and said that the
farmers would redeem the country
in the present crisis.
Mr.. Morrison in conclusion paid a
tribute to the women, saying that
up until some time ago he had not
been believer in woman suffrage,
but that we was now glad to an
nounce that he had changed his
mind in regard to this question and
that the future of the country lies
in the hands of it's women.

Producing himself as the "Duke of

been bestowed upon him by Mr.
Logan, but stating that the boil
weevil had taken away everything
which might entitle him to be
known as the "Duke of Dorchester"

end to address the the women; instead,
he told them in the beginning that
it was very great pleasure to be
privileged to speak to them.

because I am unwilling to continue
to live under present conditions"
said Mr. Hutto in announcing his
platform. He said that the present
financial depression in the South is
the result of the Republican party
diverting funds which were Justly
due to Southern farmers and bust
ness men to the North, saying that
Southern farmers have been forced
to sell their cotton at absurdly low
figures as result of not having
funds which would allow them to
hold it. Mr.. Hutto confidently pre-
dictcd his election and said that
one of the first matters which he
would consider upon his arrival in
Washington would be the question
of the financial relief of the South
