Art Jensen, manager OF the II.

claim of John j. Dolan Of the Perth

as his team won two matches oft
of three from the Amboys and the
series was arranged the best two
out of three sets and not total

The H. B. Club manager would
like to arrange games with all teams
in the running for city and county

Tomorrow night this team Will
roll the du Pont team of Parlin on

Dawson and Post, high average
men in the county league, are card

Next Monday night the H E. team
will endeavor to check the winning
streak of the local Y. NJ. C. A. team.
The "Y" forces have taken fifteen

Athletic officer Allen
Outlines
ana Conditions Locally

One Of the first steps by Rufus
L. Allen as athletic officer of the
local post OF the American Legion
will be the formation Of a basket
ball league for teams having play
.ers under eighteen years Of age.
This circuit will be somewhat the
same as the baseball league formed
by the Rotary Club last summer.
Arrangements have been made
for a meeting in the Y. NJ. c. A.
at 1880 o'clock on Friday night CT
managers who contemplate entering
the league and an effort will De
made TO secure neutral u on
which to play the scheduled con-
tests.
Athletic Officer Allen also is lay
ing plans for a monster field meet
on Memorial Day afternoon. Nay
.. for boys and girls in grades be-
low the sixth in public and paro-
CHA schools. 4 water meet open
to everyone is being planned for
July 4.
Mr.. Allen has found it Impossible
to organize a worth while legion
basketball team because leading
basketeers of the local post are un-
der contract TO play with one team.
and 1t would be almost q foolish
steD from a financial standpoint 10
attempt running home games if a
worth while collection of players
could be obtained.
Advancing of baseball and bas-
Retail to junior circles l. referred
to By the athletic officer the former
spor has the advantage on accou It
of the numerous fields In all sec
tions OF the city.
Reference Is also made to track
activities in this city for which the
tract at Lewis and South First
! streets was laid out. 1t is ALSO
pointed out that with certain i'm
provements on this field. football
could be added to the regular pro-
eram Of SPORTS in this city. The
Raritan Conner Works field good
for baseball and track work Is
practically inTpossible for the stag

between the Roosevelt Separates and
The Perth Anlboys on Coughlin's au-

night. This Is the second game of a
series between these combinations
and a big crowd ia expected out.
The Amhoys won the first game
al this series on the auditorium
court in this city by a comfortable
margin. and local fans are OF the
opinion that everything is bright and
rosy for another Amboy victory. The
visitors will take the court in the
same manner as IN the first game,
with the exception OF Ed 'Blackie'
Regain, and his place will be taken
by Willie Marion, recently added to
the Amboy roster.
Messrs. Jacobowitz and Nannen,
intent on winning this contest, have
added Ray Handerhan of the local
Speedways to their roster. and it is
probable he will start tomorrow

AMbOY LADS VS..
RUTGERS PREP
Contest on New Brunswick
Court This Friday After
~noon-Important Game
(H. $. Correspondent

With five straight victories under
their belt. the Perth Amboy High
school courtsters will attempt to an
mex their sixth win on Friday after
noon, when they travel to New
Brunswick to clash with the Rutgers
Prep school quintet. The rejuven-
ated Amboy five will have to set a
fast pace in order to come out ahead
Of the preparatory school boys.
The result of the contest will have
an important bearing, on the county
championship. Not Tor a number
of years have the two ~inter-city
rivals come together, but when they
do, a battle royal can be expected.
The Rutgers prep game is the one
which will really test the strength
of the Amboy basketeers and may
decide whether or not the State
streeters can be classed among the
top-notchers of the state.
The %up-county team SO far this
season has not won a same, as they
have been handicapped in not hav-
ing the services of Coach PERI, a
former Brown University star. Bat
tin won by twelve points, while st.
Benedict's Prep swamped them 6S
10. However, nothing can be
taken for granted in basketball,
which. as all other sports, is very
uncertain. Roland Main, a former
local high school student, nov sports
the colors of the county seat insti-
tuition. He performs at the center
berth for the prepsters.
On account of the girls game
played today the boys will not be
able to workout.

By BILLY EVANS

Babe Ruth, at a time when he
was regarded as the leading south
law of the American League, quit
pitching to play outflcld.
Ruth, thereupon, developed into
the greatest slugger in the history of
baseball.
George Sisler came to the st.
Louis Browns from the University
of Michigan. Inside of a year he
won the right to be classed as one
of the best left-hauders in the Amer
lean League.
Sisler, a great hitter and very fast,
was missed by the Browns when not
pitching. He quit pitching at the
top of his game to play first base.
Sisler has developed into the
greatest first sacker OF all time and
one of the most remarkable bats
man the game has ever produced.
Seeks Ruth's Laurels
Now comes another left-handed
pitcher to win batting laurels, "Reb"
Russell of the Pittsburgh Nationals.
For six years, Russell, as a mem
Der of the Chicago White Sox, was
one of the leading southpaws of the
American League.
Unlike Ruth and Sisler, Russell
did not give up pitching at the
height of his career. An injury to
his pitching arm caused him to be
Internationally released. He drifted
back to the minors. Joe Cantillon
gave him a chance at Minneapolis.
Russell started to poke them high
| and far. No one paid much atten-
ton to his fielding blunders. Garry
ling almost as much avoirdupois as

in George Burns class as an out
fielder.

was the fad up in the majors.
Thus, "Reb" Russell. losing the
sting to the left whip, swatted his
way back to the majors. Pittsburgh
bought him from Minneapolis.
Rivals Ruth as Slugger
Many of the experts insist If Babe
Ruth's record of fifty-nine horners
is surpassed, Russell will turn the
trick.
Figures tell part of Russelr's abil-
ity to hit 'en. He was second to
Rogers Hornsby in batting with an
average of 1858.
Veteran National League pitchers
speak highly of Russell as a long
distance hitter. He had one streak

In a double header with st. Louis
