LOCAL OUTFIT
At MATAWAN
E. B. B. Team Out After Sixth
Consecutive Victory This
Season

The basketball season at Matawan
will be ushered in tonight when the
e. B. B. quintet of this city opposes
the Matawan Big Five at Geran's
hall.
Plenty of interest is centered
about this game at that borough as
both teams are on edge and anxious
for a win. The Matawan team has
been getting in trim for the past sew
eral weeks by holding practice ses-
sions about twice a week and Man
ager Bader expresses the hope of
having a big season.
The e. B. b. quintet is going at a
great clip at this time, having won
their first five games and expect to
add another tonight. The local team
recently defeated the crack A. o. H.
five of New Brunswick, the st.
stephen Separates of this city and
the S%partans of Carteret.
In tonight's engagement Manager
Bader will form his Matawan team
around Weber, Tassini, Leary and
Kruesen, all men Of last year, and
Wooley and McNally, two new play
ers of excellent calibre. The b. B.
s. will travel to the Monmouth coun-
ty court with i. Totin, M. Totin,
Chizmadia, Karl, Grieve and Gillis.
A basketball team was organized
in Matawan for the past two seasons
but the crowd did not warrant the
continuance of the pinewood floor
sport. A good crowd is expected to
be out tonight and dancing will be
held before and after the contest,
and between the halves.

Amboys will try harder than ever
to show their best form inasmuch
as Harry Davis and Willie Marion,
members OF last years squad, play

vicinity will be given their first OPP
p~ortunity this afternoon at Garretson
field, Amboy avenue, to see the crack

Stauffeur, at the local high school,
in action. Freehold high will furnish
the opposition.
There are some local gridiron fol-
lowers who have Travelled to other
cities to see the Crimson and White
pigskin men perform, but today's
battle will be the first and only one
to be played on a local gridiron this
season.
Considering everything, the eleven
picked by Coach Stauffer has been
mighty successful. The State street.
ers have won three games in five
starts, defeating two OF the leading
contenders for the Middlesex county
title, New Brunswick and South
River, and also downing the colors
of Atlantic Highlands, one of the
leading teams, in Monmouth county.
Battin high of Elizabeth and Rah-
way high school are credited with
the victories over Manager "Panny'

day football fans will be given their

Bohnsack, Larson, Polkowitz, Mar
tin and a number of the other boys
may some day carry the colors OF a
leading college team on the gridiron,
for they are said to be "the local
wonders of the football field"
Freehold has a good team and has
made a fairly good record on the
gridiron this fall. South Amboy high
succeeded in downing the colors of
the Monmouth county eleven, but it
must be remembered that the ross
river school has quite a team this
winter. South Amboy Is aching for
a crack at Perth.
After today's battle 1t is possible
that the men under in their
studies will be dropped from the
ranks for the remainder OF the sea-
son. To date this means one game
with North Plainfeld a week from
tomorrow. There is a possibility,
however, that South Amboy will be
tackled before the curtain is drawn.
Coach Stauffer put the boys
through a stiff scrimmage at Hayes
