ed that the huge Armistice ce1ebra-

the-wool fans who so Loyalty rooted
for the Riyersides when that team
was making basketball history for
Mlddlesex county. Gil Schwab and
Eddie Schelling, who so ably per-
formed with the old Rivies, will APP
pear in the lineup of the Turner's
tomorrow night when the Newark
champs take the floor against the
local favorites who are endeavoring
to %supplant the Riversides in the af-
lection of fandom of this county.
The National Turner's knowing
well that the locals have scored vic
tories against the Harrison Big Five
and the Bay View Wheelmen are
coming to this city with their
strongest lineup ready for battle, in
Guiding therein Schwab. Schwan-
kert, Clark, the two Schelling broth
ers and Teuschler. On this Sunday
night the Amboy Five will travel to
Newark where they will oppose the
Turner's on the latter's court. Last
Sunday night a large number OF
fans accompanied the team to New
ark to see the locals in action
against the Wheelmen and a much
larger crowd has already expressed
its intention of seeing the Turner
game this Sunday night.
Captain Hank Thomas, Blackie
Regain, Harry Davis. Pete Hanson,
Charley Sher and Ruie Allen are
all in tip-top condition for the
games over the weekend.

i'm Last Minute of Play

The z. M. H. A. basketball tossers
have two games to their credit as a
result of their victory over the Lau-
rels of New Brunswick in the open
ing game of the present season on
the Y. M. H. A. court, corner of Nc
Clellan and Smith streets last night.
The final score of last nights con-
test was 20 to "a.
What was expected to be an easy
victory for the association represen-
tatives resulted in a bitterly contest
ed battle which was decided IN the
last two and a half minutes of play.
The New Brunswick basketeers,
newcomers in the senior division,
displayed a classy brand of ball and
at least two of the members of this
outfit should shine in semi pro bas-
ketball circles in this vicinity in q
couple Of years.
After New Brunswick had taken
the lead by scoring from the free
throw line, the home team tailed
three points in rapid fashion. Both
teams missed a number of apparent
Iy easy shots and at other periods
during the first twenty minutes Of
play the guarding was close.
Throughout the initial twenty min
utes of play the going was nip and
tuck, Manager Jacobson's players
dropping behind through a squirt by
the visitors in the closing minute.
The score at half time was 10 to 10
in favor Of New Brunswick
In the second period the two teams
battled on an lever basis and it ap-
peared as if the association forces
were doomed to defeat. The asso-
~sN;~ ,,An xryAr1JI crtanan1 in
evening matters and Immediately af-
ter the county seat tossers would
come through with pointers putting
them in the lead again.
Ham" Fine, a promising player,
was given his first chance with a
senior team near the close of the Sec
ond period last night, and while he
did not break into the scoring co.,
umn he played a prominent part in
the passing which led to the scor-
ing of the winning baskets.
With two and a half minutes to
go, the local players scored a double
counter and a minute later Herb
Fleming dribbled down the court and
once again evened the score. After
the ball had been passed up and
down the court or about thirty sec
onds, Yak Lowenkopf came through
with a TWO pointer, his SeCouu VI tiIe
night and the victory was cliuched.
Lowenkopf later score a foul and
Try Schwartzman added the final
two points from the field.
For the visitors Smith, formerly of
the New Brunswick High School
team featured. He made five double
counters. Schwartzman was high
score man for the local team with
four double counters and five foul
goals. With the exception of G.
Fleming and Fine, all of the players
on the two teams, took part in the
scoring.
The eleventh man on the floor was
.Hank" Thomas of the Amboys and
Leo SIobodien held the whistle for
the locals. Next Thursday night the
Junior Order United American Me-
chanics of South Amboy will furnish
the opposition to the association
team on the local court. The play

son there has been considerable dis
cussion as to whether or not Cobb
really did hit 400 because OF a queS-
tionable hit.
That argument has been closed by
President johnson Of the American
League, who has announced that the
disputed hit has been allowed.
The final average of the Amer
lean League as published had Coop

hits for an average of 400.
A few weeks later the official sta
tistician noted that there was a diff
ference between his records and the
unofficial averages. His records
gave Cobb only 210 hits bringing his
average just below the priced mark,
or 1893.
