R|DGEWOODS
PLAY LEGION
Strong Mariners Harbor Elev-
en- on TottenviIle Gridiron
This Sunday Afternoon

Manager Thomsen's fast going
Beauvais Post American Legion
eleven, of T%ottenville, will take on
the strong Ridgewood football team,
of Mariners Harbor, or the Aque-
honga baseball field, this Sunday af-
ternoon.
The Tottenville eleven was scored
on only twice this season, twelve
points being credited to the Elms, of
Port Richmond, a week ago Sunday,
and last Sunday, the Moonlights, of
Tompkinsville, registered seven
points in a contest on the Totem
VILE field. Both of these clubs were
beaten decisively.
The acquisition of Billy Flynn and
Yves Hansen, of this city, has added
considerably to the strength of the
Tottenville eleven. Flynn is recog-
nized as one of the fastest men play
ing football in this section at the
present time.
In contests so far this fall, the
Ridgewoods have made a fine show
ing and this collection of gridiron
performers should give the legion
team a hard run for honors.
The Tottenville manager is en-
deavoring to arrange a game or a
Club, of Carteret. One game could
be played in Carteret and the other
at Tottenville, the playing field for
the first contest to be decided by the
toss of a coin.

LOCAL SOCCER
TEAM BEATEN
Strong Freehold Eleven Beats
AmbOy-- MetuChen VS.. Am
boys on Sunday

Although defeated by the Karag-
heusian Soccer team, of Freehold,
on Saturday last, the Perth Amboy
hungarian Soccer Club eleven made
a creditable showing. The final
score was 1910.
Freehold's team is leading the
East Jersey circuit, and is recog-
nized as n of the leading soccer
teams in the state. Saturday con-
test was full of thrills and time after
time the Amboys were unable to
penetrate the Freehold clubs de-
tense.
The contest as a whole, was far
more interestig than the score would
indicate. |. Dugasz was the spirit
of the Amboy front line and only
sensational work by McCullen and
Walker, Freehold's sturdy backs,
Kept him from reaching his objec-
tive.
For the v%ietors, the whole Karag-
heusian forward line played we'll and
up to championship standard. The
WORK of the home wingman was es-
pecially good, this player account
ing for six of his teams goals.
The Freehold-Amboy game was
one of the cleanest played since the
league started. In the near future
the two teams will clash again on
the local field.
This Sunday afternoon on the Cop
per works field, the local eleven will
take on the strong Metuchen Soc
Ger club. The Copper works field is
the home grounds OF the Metuchen
team.

WALTON Is OUSTED
BY SENATE COURT
Unanimous Verdict of Guilty Is Re-
turned on a Number Of m
parchment Counts.

Oklahoma City, OKLA. G. Walton,
fifth governor of Oklahoma, was re-
moved from office by unanimous vote
Of the state senate court Of impeach-
ment after his trial on charges OF
corruption in office, neglect Of duty,
moral turpitude, and general incom-
p~etence.
A formal verdict ordering the re-
moval was returned after the execu-
tive had been found guilty OF IL or
the 16 charges presented. The vote
was IL to O..
Six OF the original % charges n
%stituting the impeachment bill were
dismissed by order of the court.
The court, by a standing vote, de-
MED a motion for a new trial, which
Gov. Walton's counsel filed immedi-
ately after the verdict was announced.
The governors removal, although
not formally ordered until after a
verdict had been returned on each
charge, was made certain when tho
court, without a dissenting vote,
found him guilty of abusing his pardon
and parole authority.
Forty-one senators, lacking only
n OF the total membership OF the
body, voted for conviction on the
clemency charge, the first to be voted
upon.
Senator Jack Barker, who has voted
consistently in the governors favor
throughout the 16 days OF the trial,
was absent when the final roll was
called. The articles Of impeachment
were filed by the lower house OF the
state legislature. when less than two
months ago, the executive at the
height of his power, had imposed mill
tary force on the state.
By removal OF Gov. Walton, Lieut..
Gov. M. B. Trap becomes governor
Of the state. Trap has been lieu

administrations, and has been acting
governor since October %, when the

moval, followed with surprising sud-
denness after the examination OF the

dent of the Marland Refining COM
pany, had barely left the stand when

The packing companies are given

A WET BLANKET PLACED
ON BOLD CREDIT PLAN
President Coolidge Opposes Latest
Deal for Trade Expansion
WITH Germany.

Misunderstanding two pro-leagt
uers, international bankers and
agrarian interests are maneuveriIg
to project the United States into
European affairs, President Coolidge
has thrown a wet blanket on the
latest and boldest credit extension
proposals.
1t was stated officially at the White
House that the president is opposed
to the use Of the German property
held by the alien property custodian
as a basis for credit to finance ex-
ports Of American products to
Germany.
The president not only does not re-
gard such action, which has been
urged at various times during the
past two or three years, as feasible,
but Is Of the opinion that there IS
ample credit available through regu-
lar banking channels. In this view
the president accepts the judgment Of
Eugene Meyer, jr., managing director
of the wal finance corporation, who
has opposed various suggestions that
the government aid in financing ex-
ports Of farm products to Europe.
Mr.. Meyer believes that the lack Of
demand for American products from
some European countries Is due to ex-
change uncertainties and not inabil-
ity to obtain proper credit through
ordinary banking channels. Such
credit as might be advanced by the
government, Mr.. Meyer thinks, would
be on an .unsound basis with a prob
ability that the government would
not be repaid
II the administration had approved
the plan it has been reported that
Thomas w. Miller, alien property
custodian, would favor legislation pro-
viding for the use OF 1857, 900 900 in
alien property now held by him to
promote trade between the United
States and Germany.
Another scheme upon which the
president also looks with disfavor is
that the war finance corporation adj
vance $3.50, 600, 900 to finance pur-
chases of American wheat and other
food products by Germany to relieve
the reported food shortage in that
country. Famine relief measures IL
undertaken should be financed by
outright appropriation, the president
holds. A credit extension, he is con.
WINGED, would be unsound.
