number had hit the referee and one
of the home club had hit this play

Tomorrow night the Perth Amboy
basketball team expects to continue
its winning streak on the local au-
ditorium court. The Perth L.mboys
have not been defeated in this city.
There is a possibility that the
Perth Amboy representative football
team will perform on a local field
this Sunday or the following Sun
day. The Roosevelt Field Club or
the Vons of New Brunswick are ca
pable opponents.
Much interest is conferred in the
case of Ed Rommell, star pitcher of
the Philadelphia Athletics. Base
ball critics are wondering what this
finger could do with a first divis-
ion team considering his record with
the lowly Mack team.
Judging from the success of the
eight hour endurance contest held IN
this city yesterday another similar
event may be arranged for Christ
mas or o later holiday.
Soccer Is one of the coming sports
of importance for the fans of this
vicinity. Great interest is being
taken in this sport in this vicinity.
A week from next Tuesday the
third show of the Center Athletic
Club will be held in the local Audi
torium. Seven boxing shows are
planned by this organization.

Tottenville and Carteret football
teams may not materialize. This
