Consequently. a request will be
made by the association that after

Since the release of the White

HARD CONTEST
Independents Carry Off Bacon
9 8 and Win County
H0nOrS

The South Amboy Independent
girls basketball team nosed out h
Dottas girls quintet Of this city in
the second game Of their series
which was played on the Auditorium
court here Saturday night. The nm
al score of this contest was 9-S, a nm
al rally enabled the South Amboy
team to carry off the bacon.
Throughout the game the floor
work of the Perth Amboy team was
a shade better than that of the OPP
position, and up to the last minute
Of the game, the Dottas had the lead.
Miss Marie Handerhan, captain and
pivot of the local team, held Miss
Tdna Bennett, star center of the
South Amboy team scoreless from
the field in this game, while the Dot
tas center made four of her teams
eight points.
At the conclusion of the first per-
iod, the Dottas were leading by a
score Of Ga. During the opening
session the a~ll-around play OF the
Misses Anna Handerhan and Flea
o Brogger, featured for the home
team, while Miss Marion Thorn was
again a big factor in the play Of the
Independents.
Inasmuch as the Independents de-
feated the Dottas in the first game
of the series at South Amboy, the
results of Saturday nights game
gives the Independents the right to
claim the girls championship OF
Middlesex county.

Fouled as he went through the
field for a shot in the closing period,
Handerhan, star forward of h
Perth Amboy Speedway team, sue
ceeded in making the basket and the
foul which was called. These three
points put new life into the Speed
way machine and enabled the locals
to scere a 1926 victory over the
Hudson County Stars in a bitterly
contested battle on the Auditorium
court, Saturday night.
The game on Saturday night was
one of the hardest fought on the
New Brunswick avenue court TINS
season. Seldom was either team lead
ing by more than two or three points
and at half time the Speedways a
a one point advantage, 1915. The
first half was played according 70
one hand Cripple, and the second
two hand dribble. =.
Pitted against David Hank
Thomas, New York state league star,
was .'Stretch" Hiskey. rated as the
hest pivot man in Hudson county.
Hickey outscored Thomas from the
field, two to me-, but both of h e for
mer's baskets were long range shots,
while Thomas secured his by taking
the ball through the field. The
cle~verness of Thomas in making his
opponent foul him as he attempted
to go down the court, materially AID
ed the Speedways in this contest as
the local center made twelve couh-
ters from the foul line.
Due to the fact that Jack Fowler
one of the advanced men of the Stars
missed the train for this city, 1t was
necessary for the Stars to secure
Freddy Glochau, local basketbaii
star to serve in the capacity OF nitii
man. Glochau was placed in a de-
fensive berth, and Dorman vent to
forward. Glochau played his usual
fast game.

Newark Triang|es Stop
Fast Going Borough Team

Newarkers led by a score of 15-12.
Thomas and Hansen made the only
field goals credited to the Separates
in this half, the former making two
and the latter one. Ten fouls were
called on the Newark outfit in this
session. seven on the opponent of
Thomas. and one each on the oppo-
nent of Hubbard. Allen and Glochau.
Thomas made four fouls and Hib-
bard and Glochau each one in this
period.
At the start of the second hall
the Triangles travelled at high speed
in an effort to increase their lead,
and it was early in this session hat
they managed to run up a comfort
able lead, after which the going was
nip and tuck. The Separates again
found it difficult to go through the
Triangle defense in the second per-
iod and only two baskets were made,
one each by Thomas and Hansen.
Nine fouls were called on the New
arkers in this half. five on Thomas,
two on Glochau and M each on

"Y" Swimmers Win
From Peoples Palace

The Y. NJ. C. A. swimming team
defeated the Peoples Palace aqua
tic combination of Jersey City in a
meet conducted in the Perth Amboy
associations pool Saturday night by
the narrow margin of one point, the
score being 27-26. This victory was
won despite the fact that the Amboy
team was without the services of
Walter ''Dick" Oliver and Winfield
"Wink' Scott, two of the regulars.
The former could have no doubt
taken first in the dives and placed
in the dashes as well. while Scott
could have placed in the plunge.
The fact that these two members
of the team were missing is all the
more reason why the combination
which successfully defended the
local association should receive due
credit. Clayton Clark, Jr., again
starred for the Amboy team, taking
first in the eighty yard swim and
forty yard back stroke and being G
member of the winning relay team.
Russell Ullman, by winning the
forty yard swim, donated his bit to-
ward %annexing the victory. Totin,
a Junior, secured n point, sufficient
to win the meet. by taking third in
the fancy dives. the Peoples Palace
entrants getting first and second.
George Preacher, third in the back
stroke event, which with Clark's fin
ishing first, gave Amboy 6 points in
this feature swim. In the plunge for
distance, Scott was missed, but
Parker Nielsen managed to get one
point for Amboy by finishing third.
The winner of this event plunged SIS
