securing accommodation for their
cars, whether they are here for a
single day during the fight or whe-
they they are camping for a week or
two.
For the former purpose an Off

lished just west of the fight arena,
where the fight fan can check his car
in a guarded and fenced enclosure
and enjoy the fight while knowing
that his car is safe. If he desires to
be free from the inconvenience of
living indoors, he can bring his car

SPECIAL BOUT
Carroll Hertz Go Attracting
Great Interest Throughout
This Section

Aside from the fact that Mickey
belmont of Newark, a big fayorite
here a few years ago., is to fight
main event, real interest in the COM
ing Patrolmen's Benevolent Associa-
ton boxing show is centered on the
special eight-round event between
Johnny Carroll and Benny Hertz,
both of Carteret.
This bout means a great deal to
the two fighters and also to the fis-
tic fans of Carteret, m of the great
est boxing towns in this section OF
the state. To Carroll a defeat in this
bout will practically mean the end
of his boxing career while to Hertz a
setback will mean the temporary
checking of the advance of one OF
the greatest boxing prospects dug UP
in this section in recent years.
Both men, it is said, have left the
borough to train for the bout and
only their closest associates are &C
quainted with what is going on III
connection with their preparations.
Carroll has the biggest following of
the two borough fighters, as a result
of his years of activity in the roped
arena and the fact that he is a fine
fellow. Hertz likewise has a good
following for ~ practically a begin
ner in the ring game.
There is also a six-rounder and
three tours on the program for this
show to be exhibited in the auditor
ium on March 2S.

Amboy VOI|ey Ball Team
Defeats Germantown ~
In One Game; Loses Match

The Perth Amboy Y. NJ. c. A. vol
ley ball team proved conclusively on
Saturday night that it is one Of the
strongest teams in the country when
it defeated the Germantown team
Of Pennsylvania in one game at
Brooklyn and came within an ace
OF repeating this victory in the de-
Gliding game OF the match, Amboy
losing out by only two points, The
Amboy team argued that the Ger
maHtown team had been given one
more point than il was entitled 10
at an exciting part OF the game, but
the score was not changed and AM
boy was forced to give in and play.
To further prove their strength the
Amboy team defeated the Brooklyn
Central combination in their match
by q larger margin than did Ger
mantown.
Although Amboy lost out to Ger
mantown in the three game match
scoring IS points to Germantown's
81, the showing OF the local team
was such as to impress the large
number OF spectators that Perth
Amboy can now boast Of a team
which is on an sven footing with
Germantown, recognized in volley
ball circles as the best sextette in
the United States and Canada.
Despite the fact that Germantown
defeated them. Perth Amboy at least
won a moral victory over the champ
ionship combination by proving de-
cidedly Germantown can be beaten
and that the Amboy team Is capable
OF doing it.
In the opening game with Ger
nantown the Amboy men showed
| signs Of the same nervousness which
they have displayed in former games
| against Germantown. After q few
minutes Of play the local players
overcame this nervousness and as
their confidence in their ability tc
hold their own against Germantown
| appeared, the onrush Of the Penn
sylvania combination was checked
Amboy held the samed combination
we'll in check towards the latter par
OF the game but the early lead Of
Germantown was too much for the
locals to overcome. Germantown
won 15-7.
When the two teams again faced
each other, it was after both team:
had played and defeated Brooklyn
Germantown having won from tht
Brooklyn Central combination by
score Of 15-6 whereas Anboy de
feated Cntral 15-s. Perth Ambo,

mickey" LOESER To
PLAY LEFT GARDEN
FOR LOCAL COMBINE

|tlnue, Loeser will be one of the first
ON the field to Timber up for the
opening of the season.
This player has made a reputation
particularly in this county through
his ability to play the left garden
and to gain results as u leadoff man.
The greatest part of his career was
spent with the old Saint Anthony's
in the days when the Franklins and
Saints used to play for the city
championship. In these historic bat
ties, Mickey had as an opposing left
fielder, his brother, Guss.
Mickey has also played with 9TH
er teams throughout this section,
particularly the different Rarltan
Copper works representative teams.
Loeser is a left handed fielder and
batter, and there is every indica-
ton that he will be up in the lead
off position on the locals batting
order again this season.
So far, Manager Poulsen has Al
Lorenzo, a catcher. and Fred
"Dopey" Smith, a first sacker. The
opening of the season is about q
month off and the balance of the
team is expected to be signed by
the end of this week.

City HOnOrS at Stake

ganized as a Junior quintet five sea-
sons ago. Three Irish lads are
members OF this team and the Irish
fans of South Amboy will be out
strong tonight to root for them.
The Lightnings won the right to a
game with the Mechanics through
their defeat of all other contenders
for a crack at the scalps OF the South
Amboy representatives. Captain
Barky's boys have played their other
South Amboy opponents in prelimi-
nary contests to the Juniors week
ly contests.
Interest OF basketball fandom is
centered on the ability of Captain
Barky to get the tap at the pivot
position the greatest number OF
times in the contest tonight. It Is
believed the Lightnings will show
greater speed and passing than their
opponents, and also that they are
the better shooting team.
The fact that the high school au-
ditorium lis somewhat small for bas-
ketball will mean that Charley Ep-
pinger, the referee, will have to call
everything in order that the Light
nings may have a chance. They are
the lighter team and IL the Mechan-
les are given the break in the pinch,
it will be a big help in favor Of the
home team.
This contest is scheduled to get
under way about . o'clock and there
will be no preliminary gone, but
dancing as usual. If the Lightnings
furnish the.necessary opposition to-
night, another game or two viii be

this announcement this morning.
He is the third nan to be signed by

Little can be said regarding the

being tied at half time by a 1913
tally, and again knotted at the end
of the second half 81 to 81, and
downing the coiors OF the speedy
Commonwealth Big Five at New
York City last night by a 33--31
final, after being behind by six points
at the end of the first canto.
The Winton game Saturday night

played on the Auditorium court this
season. The teams tied the score at
least fourteen times during the eve
ming. At no time was either outfit

of fifteen fouls.
The second session found Hank"
Thomas hitting on all six. and after
twenty minutes of spectacular and
thrilling playing that had the large
crowd upon it's feet throughout, a
field goal by Captain Thomas a sec
ond before the bell rang, tied the
score at 81 all.
The Wintons took the floor to play
off the tie and staged such a whirl-
wind brand of ball that at the ter
mination OF hostilities the local net
men had been showed under by an
eight point margin.
Dave Banks again was the out
standing performer on the visiting
team, scoring four times from the
field and three times from the foul
line. Dorman and Guerber each o m
trtbuted three field goals.
The score:
