The annual field day of the chill
dren of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and
Railroad company schools was held
Friday afternoon on the steel plant
athletic grounds. Something over
900 boys and girls participated in
the athletic events, which included
races of many kinds, volley ball,
jumping and many athletic events
involving the skill and ability of the
young athletes. The affair was I'M
der the direction of Mr.. Hotchkiss,
in charge of athletics for the COM
pany schools. He was the starter Of
the. events and dispatched the pro-
gram in excellent time.
The field day was witnessed by
scores of teachers of the Tennessee
company system and quite a large
number of interested onlookers. The
affair was postponed twice on ac-
count of the weather and was held
later this year than ever before. The
boys and girls had evidently engaged
in considerable practice for every
event was holly contested, the win
ners only prevailing against the field
by the hardest kind of effort. The
participants came from the schools
of Ensley, Bayview, Edgewater, Do
eena, Winonah, Bessemer and else
where in this district.

Hard Fought Game on St.
Mary LyCeum Court Last
Evening

Playing the rules regularly used
by their opponents, the one hand
dribble. the Dottas girls quintet, of
this city. registered its second vic
tory of the season in the prelimin-
airy contest IN the st. Mary Lyceum
court last night. The final score
of the game was SIS, and the opposi-
ton was furnished by the strong
representative team of the Railway
Y. NJ. C. A.
The Dottas took the court with
Lillian Bjork and Anna Handerhan
in the advanced berths, Edna Bennett
at center, and Marie Feldman and
Helen Schultz in the backfeld.
Handicapped considerably because
OF the fact that they play the two
hand dribble game, the Dottas were
soon left behind by the Union coun-
ty passers.
A squirt near the close of the ses-
sion resulted in the locals tieing the
visitors. The score at half time was
5-5, and in the last half the asso-
citation basketeers were held score
less. Miss Bjork made the winning
basket for the local quintet.
In their first game, the Dottas
downed the colors of the Carteret
Independents and next week in the
preliminary engagement to the
Speedway-Hudson county go, the
Dottas will take on a strong North
Jersey opponent. Yves Hansen ref

Tommy Murphy Harry Leon
ard Bout Should be Great
Contest

Fistic fans from Trenton and
vicinity are planning to attend the
National Sport Club show here on
Friday night, to see their contender
for the bantamweight title now held
by Joe Lynch. in action in the eight
round feature bout. Tommy Kid
Murphy is the Trenton favorite re-
ferred to and in the local contest
he will encounter Harry Battling
Leonard, of Philadelphia.
Just two months ago Murphy de-
feated Pal Moore of Memphis, Tenn,
recognized bantamweight champion
of the south. Murphy scored a clean
cut victory over the Southern boy
and this victory entitled the Jersey
lad to a go with the champion. Per-
haps it forced the New Yorker to
make up his mind not to endanSer
his crown by agreeing TO a meeting
with the new contender.
Leonard's recent victory over
Danny Lee, was another scare for
the champion, so that Matchmaker
Ed Poulson of the local club, has
arranged to bring together two of
the leading ~contenders for the BAN
tamweight title of the world. Sell
dom has a promoter in this section
been successful in matching two
men who are rated as high as the
Philadelphia and Trenton boys.
This is the fifth show for the Ma
tional club and a good supporting
card for the principal feature has
been arranged. There will be three
skies and two tours.

POPULAR STAR
To PLAY HERE
David blank" Thomas Will
Be With Amboys in Satur-

David flank" Thomas, popular To-

local basketball moguls, Messrs.
Lowenkopf and Levin. that he will
be available for service with the
Perth Amboy Big Five at the Audi
forum court. in this city, the next
two Saturday nights and possibly
for all Saturday contests during the
balance of the campaign.
Court promoters in Schenectady,
n. Y, where Thomas has been per-
forming with the representative
team of that city in the New York
state league, have decided to change
their home night to Thursday night
for the next two weeks.
Tomorrow night the Schenectady
passes, occupants of first place in
the upstate league, will take on the
Cohoes team on the Schenectady
court, and the following night, the
Schenectady team will go to Cohoes

BANKS To PLAY
Star Advanced Carded to Per-
form Against. Negroes on
Saturday Night

The old proverb about every dark
cloud having a silver lining is quite
applicable to the local Perth Amboy
five, who. anticipating the loss of
their popular captain, Hank"
Thomas. were a%greeably surprised
to learn, upon Hanks return, from
the big league, that he would in
all probability perform with the To-
cal state champions, at the Auditor
ium court, every Saturday night
hereafter, as the Schenectady club
with which team he performs, has
decided to switch it's home night
from Saturdays to Thursdays, thus
living the local dribbler an oppor-.
tunity to perform in his W home
town.
Although the versatile Davy
Banks of the Metropolitan League,
one of the real big shots" of bas-
ketball was signed by the local
management, to perform In Thomas
place on every Saturday night that
his team is not scheduled to play in
the Metropolitan League, the local
basketball moguls have decided to
retain the services of both Thomas
and Banks for the balance of the
season So hat in the event either
one must perform in a league game,
the other will be on hand to help
carry the colors Of the local quintet
to victory.
Judging by the wonderful exhibit
ton given by Banks last Saturday
night, against the Jersey Police, 1t
is quite evident, that with Thomas
in the lineup, as Banks running
mate, at the forward berth, that this
city can truly boast of having the
two cleverest forwards in the east.
Ray Handerhan, who has also been
playing stellar ball will be on hand
to take the place of either u of
these two artists.
At the guarding position, the Am
bow representatives with Schwan-
kert. Estrin, and Hansen, have a
collection of guards that can hold
their own with the fastest forwards
of any club. and with Pete Eggers
at his favorite pivot position, local
fandom can expect to see this col
lection of basketeers register vic
tories over the best known and fast
est clubs in the country.
Whether or not both Banks and
Thomas will perform this Saturday
night at the local Auditorium court,
against the Commonwealth Big Five,
will not be known until later in the
week, as it is not known definitely,
whether or not the Visitation Trl-
angles, upon which team Bank per-
forms, in the Metropolitan League,
will be engaged on that night, but
the local management is certain that
Hank" will take part in this tussle'

lyn, on the st. Mary Lyceum court,
Fayette and Mechanic street, last
night. At the completion of play.
the seoreboard read 27-17.
Close guarding was responsible for
the low scores of the game. The
visitors tailed five of their seven
baskets on cut-in shots, Pete Riz
zola's man tallying four of these
double counters and when the Har-
rison basketeers lost the ball in q
scrimmage near the visitors basket,
the Englewoods made their htth
double decker from close range. the
remaining baskets were of the SEN
sational fashion.
The local favorite, "Blackie" Re
gan, playing his first game with the
E'ayette and Mechanic streets s
keteers, had a streak of hard luck,
the ball looping out on him at least
a half dozen times. He played a
prominent part in the floorwork of
the locals, and held Byers, a forward
OF the Englewoods, to n basket, a
long shot.
Opposed to Harry Davis, was Dad
son, one of the best pivot men IN
the Metropolitan district. This play
err performed here numerous times
during the past several years. Davis
played an exceptionally good game
last night and held his man score
less from the field. He also con-
tributed two baskets to the local
score.
Visitors Score
Byers tailed from the foul line
shortly after the start of play and
Shea followed with his first two
pointer of the night. Rizzola regis
tered a foul try and Shea discounted
this score. Freddy Glochau dropped
in a pretty shot from near the To-
GALS foul line, and Davis put the
Speedways in the lead with another
long shot. Regan increased the To-
cal lead with a pretty basket. Shea
eluded Rizzola and made his Sec
ond basket, and then Rizzola and
Byers parted the shreds with one
pointers. Captain Brownmiller
scored from the free throw line, and
his man also made a o~ne-pointer.
Brownmiller again scored from the
fifteen foot mark and the session

Moran counted a foul right after
the blowing of the whistle for the
second half, after which Davis scor-
ell his second field goal of the night.
ltegan made a foul goal and Byers
followed with a sensational shot for
two points. Rizzola and Glochau
contributed one point scores, and
Shea discounted these counters with
his third basket. Moran parted the
the >sheeds with a spectacular shot,
and the score was knotted 15-all
Rizzola pulled off a long shot and
his man dropped in his fourth bas-
ket of the engagement, keeping the
score tied. A foul goal was tailed
by the Harrison player and Brown
miller registered n of his famous
set shots. Rizzola counted a two
pointer and Brownmiller followed
suit, also making good his foul
chance. The Speedways were lead
ing by eight points, and during the
last minute of play, Moran and Riz-
zola finished the scoring with a bas-
ket apiece.

i. DO not try to learn in one day;
practice makes perfect.
2. Do not use too much speed; n
slow accurate ball is better than a

3. Don't lose your patience or

4. Do not watch your opponents
