CHANCE GET
OPPOSITION
John MalIet Writes Harmony
Five Real Opponent for
S~peedWays

The following communication
Las been received from John Mallet
requesting the booking of IA game
between the Speedways and the
Harmony five SO that the former
team can get some real opposition
for their games on the Auditorium
court:
Perth Amboy. Jan. 30, 1922.
Sporting Editor,
up. A. Evening News.
Dear Sir:-It is, of course. a
pleasure to read of the many vic
tories of the Perth Amboy Speed
ways, inasmuch as the Speedways
purport to represent Perth Amboy
to have the best teams obtainable
in the town. The chief trouble
seems to be the lack OF good strong
opposition. The Speedways have
met and defeated q number of teams
On the Auditorium court in which
the opposing teams were soyed with
and real opposition was furnished
only one or two occasions.
"Since the Speedways are looking
for opposition that a make them
hustle, why do they not book the
no doubt put up real opposition.
while it is true the Harmony
Five haven't played much in this
vicinity, most of them have been
playing together all season repre-
senting the Somerville X. of c.,
where they have compiled a credita-
ole record. Any team with Regain,
Glochau, Rufie Allen should be able
to make the Speedways step and
would verv likely win. If the Speed
ways are the representative team,
why is is that Regain is not on their
roster, inasmuch as he Is one of the
fastest basketball players in the city.
Now if the Speedway manage
nfent is sincere in its desire to play
some real teams, it isn't necessary to
go far, for the opposition can be
found right in this city.
"All the talk about a series be-
tween the Speedways and the Y. M,
II. A. or the Roosevelt Separates
will not amount to much, as neither
of these teams would have much OF
a chance on the Auditorium cour!
and the arranging of a series would
lot provide much real basketball,
Hoping to see some opposition
on the Auditorium court soon, and
thanking you for the space, I am
Sincerely yours,
JOHN WALLET,

II a runner on first attempts to

causing the ball to go into the out

adopt the newspapers as text book
in the department OF history. This
is hailed as something Of an innova'
ton, hut there is really nothing so
new about IT, Prof. r. G. Sears fol-
lowed the plan at East Central teachers
college a number of years ago.
The idea ir most excellent one.
Ii is all right to study textbooks on
events happening centuries ago, nut
II Is well 10 impress on the students

a. momentous as any in thep asst is
being made daily. A newspaper is a

On TO keeping abreast OF the times
and TO analyzing the comparative i'm
pcrtance OF historical events Of the
day. The newspaper should be a part
of every scnool curriculum and tho
students required TO post themselves
on current events Just Us they are sup
posed TO know the facts OF century
ago.
The student should be taught that
the things going on about him arc

Scientific Monthly, says he has
investigated all kinds OF artificial
weather control and that he is
convinced Stiger's method really
works.

Rainmaker Hatfield's method is
