WOODBRIDGE
WONDERFIVE
High School Team Has Great
ReGord-AWait Coming
of Perth Amboy

Woodbridge High school, through
the efforts of Coach Rothfuss, is es-
tablishing basketball record Of a
wonder" team. Every opponent of
the Woodbridge boys on the latter s
court, suffered defeat and the
Woodbridge team lost only three
games on a foreign court.
At the present time the Wood
bridge representative school team
boasts of a winning streak of ten
games, the full strength of the squad
having been used in these contests.
Coach Rothfuss has favored Of
fensive play from the initial whistle,
and this scheme coupled with the
ability Of his warriors to hold up
throughout the forty minutes of
play, while the opponents are weak
enipg, accounted for the success of
the combination.
Judging from the fact that Wood
bridge High has beaten supposedly
strong teams more decisively than
Perth Amboy has, the fans should
get plenty of action when Perth
Amboy plays Woodbridge at Wood
bridge on March 8.
This Friday night the woodbridge
team travels to South River for a
contest with the high school repre-
sentatives of that place. Wood
bridge has won thirteen Of sixteen
games this season.

One of the greatest basketball
teams in the history of girls bas-
ketball in the East. is the Roose-
welt Center combination of Miss Ma
bel King of Carteret. This team is
a leading contender for the cham
pionship of New Jersey this season.
Carteret fans saw this team rising
rapidly last year. but the success
attained during the 1929 season
was far from that attained so far
this season. To date this combina-
tion is credited with twenty four
victories as against three defeats
and one tie game.
The victory over the crack Morn
ingside quintet of New York city
and the Winonas of Paterson are
the greatest successes of Miss King s
combine this season. The Morning
side outfit beaten here last Saturday
night, is rated as one of the six
strongest teams in the East, while
the Patersonians We're state cham
pions last year.
