COLLEGE POINT
TEAM WINNER
Beauvais Post Eleven Bows
to Crack Long Island
PigSkin ChaserS

College Points representative
grldiron team proved too strong for
the Beauvais Post American Legion
eleven of Totteuville in a game on
The College Point field yesterday af-
ternoon. The final score of the con-
test was 31-9.
Judging from the class shown by
the home club the visiting players
and fans are led to believe that a
great many of the College Point
men are experienced college men
playing under assumed names. The
opponents of the Tottenvilie repre-
sentatives apparently could score at
Will and their point scores followed
smart plays.
Carlo drop-kicked a goal a dis
lance of forty-five yards accounting
for three of the home teams point
ers. The remaining six points fol-
lowed al offside kick. The points
credited to College Point were well
distributed through the four quar-
tiers.
With the Tottenville team in this
game were Pete Hansen, Mann and
Schwartzman of this city and Wolff,
Randall and Fleming of New Bruins
wick. Wolff had to retire from the
game in the first quarter on account
of an injury.
Coach Wilburn's forces had COM
piled a winning streak of three
games prior to this contest.

St. Stephens Annex Fourth
Straight Victory Final
Score 52-22

The st. Stephen basketball tossers
of this city, made up of members
of the Speedway basketball team,
had an easy time registering their
fourth straight win of the present
season on the State street court last
night. The Sterlings of South River
furnished the opposition and the fin
al score was 52-22.
South Rivers representatives play
ed the locals close for the first few
minutes in the opening session, the
Saints finally stepping off for a COM
Portable lead. All of the St. Steph-
en- players tailed from the field in
this period with the exception Of
Bob Handerhan, while Eppinger
and Fitzpatrick made a two pointer
apiece for the visitors only field
scores. At half time the score was
22 to 10 in favor of the homesters.
In the second period the Saints
found it unnecessary to work as
hard IS at the start of the first half.
Good passing by the home club fea-
tured throughout, especially N this
session and when the final twenty
minutes had been played the lead
of the parish representatives was
increased to thirty points.
One of the features of the home
teams showing in this game was the
work from the free throw line,
eighteen out of twenty-five free
chances being made. The visitors

Junior Order Big Five will try for
its initial victory of the season on
the South Amboy high school court

the opposition in this encounter.
In the two games played by the
South Amboy representatives to
date the Perth Amboy Y. NJ. H. A.

games were hard fought throughout

Separates Win
Sixth Straight Victory
i'm Game With Harrison

The Roosevelt Separate basketball
team Of Carteret marched on to its
sixth consecutive victory of the pres
ent season on Coughlin's auditorium
court, Carteret, last night. This VIC
tory was scored at the expense Of
the Harrison Big Five, Jersey State
League champions Of last year and
the final score was SO TO 16.
As in a majority of the games
played to date, Jimmy Donovan and
Stretch Eggers played a prominent
part in the scoring of the Carteret
representatives last night. These
two men tailed twenty-three points
between them, sixteen of which were
made as a result of tallies from the
field.
In the opening period the advan-
tage Of Carteret with Eggers, one Of
the best pivot men in the state,
working against Stumpf, was appar-
ent. From the pivot position the
machine play of the borough repre-
sentatives gained its start and with
little opposition the Separates sue-
ceeded in passing about and then
working in for a two pointer.
At half time twelve points sep
arated the two combinations. In the
second period the Separates play
ed a stronger defensive game than
in the initial session and as a result
the Harrison players made only six
points. The Separates also took it
easy this half, tallying fourteen
points.

RECREATIONS
ARE v|CT0RS
Winning Streak of Carteret
Team is Halted on Plain
field Gridiron

After the smoke of battle had
cleared away on Recreation field,
Plainfield, on Saturday afternoon
the six game winning streak of the
Roosevelt Field Club football team
of Carteret had been ended. The
Recreations defeated Manager
Gerke's forces by an 1876 score.
While the borough team has been
putting up real exhibitions against
some of the leading teams on Staten
Island and in this state, none of
these teams could be compared on
an even basis with the crack Plain
field representative eleven and the
borough players went into the tussle
confident they would give the Rec
reations a good game.
The contest was well played
throughout, the Recreations know
ing at all times that they had an
opponent which had to be reckoned
with, The Carteret representatives
succeeded in tallying one touch
down, thus preventing a shutout
victory for the Recreation eleven.
The Recreations are one of the lead
ing contenders for the state title
again this year and probably will
play off for state honors with the
Orange team.
With this contest over the Car
teret team will probably pay atten-
ton to activities in this vicinity and
in the near future the Tottenville
representatives and the Vons of
New Brunswick may be played. The
R~ecreations have been going at
their best in contests played to date
this year.

would say:
