III. S. Correspondent

The Perth Amboy High School
miracle team" lived up to its So
briquet yesterday afternoon at Rah-
way. when they nosed out the seho-
lastic representatives Of that place
by miracle. When the final
whistle was blown the score was 1G-
II in favor Of A1nboy. 1t was the
latter'5 tenth straight.
The contest was slow and unin-
teresting, Railway being content to
keep down the visitors score and as
a. result rough tactics were employ
ed. The game was played at Frank
lin school and was poorly attended
Misjudglng of passes and poor
shooting featured the Amboy play
in this engagement. The score at
the end of the initial period was
1913 in favor of Amboy. In the
final stanza Railway took the lead
and held it for fifteen minutes, the
visitors finally forging to the front
and holding the new lead.
Railway was held to three field
goals in this encounter as in the
first game here.
Metuchen will win here tomorrow
afternoon If the Amboys display
their form of yesterday. Perhaps

WIN On FOULS
SpeedWays Lose Out After
Leading for Thirty-six Min
utes on Harrison Court

Essex county basketball fans re-
ceived quite scare last night as a
result of the fact that their gladfa-
tors, the Harrison Big Five, were be-
hind for thirty-six minutes of their
contest with the Perth Amboy Speed
ways at Hantman's hall. The home
club, however, succeeded in winning
out in the closing minuttj of the
fray, the final score being 500.
The Harrison combination earlier
j. the season beat the Perth Amboy
quintet by much larger margin
and it was expected that the Speed
sters would be downed by at least
twenty points. Instead the Speed
way machine succeeded in outscor-
ing their opponents from the field,
ten to nine. At half time the Speed
ways were leading 14-11.
Lou REILLY formerly of Bill Man
ning's Amboys, was the eleventh
man on the floor last night and call
ed nineteen fouls on the visitors and
nine on the home team.
Ray Handerhan of the Speedways
scored five double counters in this
game and held Brady scoreless from
the field. The Speedways play
South Amboy next Monday night
and the Tottenville basketeers two
weeks tonight.

Bowler Who Rolled 299
With HeImetta Here
Tomorrow Night

Donald Mccain will lead his Hell
meta bowling representatives
against the Perth Amboy bowling
team of John J. Dolan on the Bohn-

Amboys having defeated Helmetta

week ago.
Mccain, it will be remembered,
rolled a 299 score in a recent Middle
sex County League match with the
South Amboy Yacht Club on the Hell
meta alleys during the latter part of
last month. His bowling is expected
to be a big factor in the downfall of
the Dolan combination on the local
alleys tomorrow night.
Dolans forces have been travelling
at a good pace recently, their last
win was registered at the expense OF
the Amicitia quintet of Pleasant
Plains on the latter's alleys. The
Amicitias are one of the strongest
combinations in the eight team All

1t is not knowa just what lineup

set. The same men who rolled at
Pleasant Plains last week are expect
ed to start.
