TWO CONTESTS
HERE TONIGHT
Lightnings and E. B. B., Drake
Girls and Local Nationals
Clash

Two of the leading light senior
basketball teams in this vicinity will
clash tonight on tho local High
school court, the Lightnings of South
Amboy and the E. 3. b. quintet,
local light senior combination. A
hard fought contesE Is anticipated.
These two teams will be handi-
capped in the contest tonight on ac-
count of the low ceiling of the local
gymnasium. But in spite of this
detriment and in view of the fact
that both teams have tailed con-
siderable string of wins during the
present season, a good game is ex-
pected.
The Lightnings will lineup with
Mcdonnell and Triggs in the ad-
vanced positions, Barkey at center,
and Kennedy and Alex at the other
end of the floor. while the e. B. B..
team will take the floor with Gillis,
Totin, Chizmadia, M. Totin and Karl.
The game will be played according
to professional rules.
A girls game will also be played
between the brakes Business Col
lege lassies and the National Six, q
combination of local High school
girls. This game will also create
plenty of interest. There will be
dancing to the tune of the music
by the Society Syncopators, before
and after both contests.

CELT|CS AGAIN PLAY
AMBOYS IN THIS CITY

Basketball fans of this part of the
state will get another opportunity to
see the famous Original Celtics of
New York City in action at the local
Auditorium court, they having been
rebooked by the Perth Amboy Five
management to perform against Am
boys favorites on Wednesday night,
April II.
Although the Perth Amboy Five
were defeated by the champions in
their initial tussle, the local basket
EalI magnates are not satisfied that
their quintet performed at its best
in that contest.
The largest crowd that attended a
basketball game in this city this sea-
son witnessed the Original Celtic
I Perth sAmboy Five affray, the first
Nha1f of which was extremely inter-
estings the Celtics leading by a single
point. In the second canto the locals
did not play their usual game and as
a result were beaten by their cham
pion rivals.
Pete Hanson, who can usually be
counted upon to score several long
shots during game, was out be-
cause of illness while Willie Marion,
who performed in such q. sterling
manner against the Kingston Club of
the New York State League when
that outfit met defeat at the hands of
the Amboy team, was also out Of the
lineup due to a previous engagement
at Bridgeport, where he has been
performing on Tuesday nights for

AMBOY HIGH PASSERS
AT RED BANK TODAY
(High School Correspondent

(High School Correspondent
Eighteen wins without a loss. This
will no doubt be the record Of the
Perth Amboy high school basketeers
before the sun sets beyond the hori-
zon this evening. The final game Of
the season will be played this after
noon at Red Bank, Amboy having
defeated Red Bank earlier in the
season.
On Wednesday afternoon Coach
Waddell sent his wonders through
their last practice session Of the year.
The form exhibited at the drill was
as usual full of pep from beginning
to end. A splendid spirit of brother
hood has existed among the members
OF the squad throughout the season
and it has been in way responsible
for the success of the quintet.
This. afternoon Coach Waddell will
probably start the regular lineup of
Grieye and Westcott forwards, Fine
center, Captain Dooley and Martin
guards. Before the game is over
nearly all of the squad will have
broken into the box score. In the
contest here several weeks ago ten
men were used against the down
gtaters.
When the curtain is rung down
this afternoon it probably will mark
the passing into history Of the first
undefeated team in the annals Of the
school There may have been better
outfits at the school but nary one
has warded off defeat. This years
quintet has surely earned place in
the schools hall of fame. The only
thing to mar this seasons record is
the absence of several strong schools
on the list of wins but this was not
the fault of the local management.

the past three years.
In addition to these two men the
local management is negotiating for
the services of q center who has the
reputation being able to outjump
Horse" Haggerty of the Original
Celtics at the pivot position and with
such man in a Perth Amboy uni
form the locals are more optimistic
about the result Of their second en-
counter with the Champs"
Passaic Whirlwinds Tomorrow
"Blackie" Regan will make his
last appearance this season in the
Perth Amboy Five lineup tomorrow
night when the fast Passaic Whirl-
winds of Passaic j1vade this city in
quest of the locals scalps. Eddie
Regan will leave this city Wednesday
for Virginia, where he performs with
Danville in the Piedmont Baseball
League.
Captain Hank" Thomas is espe-
cially desirous of registering VIC
tory over these Passaic lads as he
has his eyes peeled for the state
championship and the Whirlwinds
are one of the obstacles that will
have to be hurdled by the locals to
give them legitimate claim to that
title. Harry Davis, Dewey Schwan-
kert, Pete Hanson, Willie Marion,
Eddie Regan and Captain Thomas
will sport the locals colors in this
contest while Powers, Reynics, Vein
er, Lajeski md Sigler will comprise
the PaSsaic roster.

to see their favorite of few years
ago, Mickey belmont of Newark, in
action against frankie DAILY of Sta

tween Johnny Carroll and Benny

the greatest interest.
DAILY and belmont are bantan1s,
the former having a reputation Ior
being able to take punishment Whl!e
the Newark lad is hard hitter. Del

out Johnny Buff, former tiyweight

GOVERNOR VET0ES BOXING
BILL RECENTLY PASSED

TRENTON, March 23:--In disap-
proving of the bill to take the boxing
commission out of the hands of the
Democrats, Governor Silzer yesterday
said:
1T is little short of ridiculous to
have the comptroller of the state,
whose duties are so foreign to a mat
ter of this kind, designated as the
responsible head of a state athletic
commission.
1--WE may next expect him to be
appointed head of a shell fish COM
mission, state undertakers' associa-
ton, board of pharmacy or dentistry,
commissioner of architects and
plumbers, horseshoers and BARRIERS"
Mr.. Silzer said the bill would mean
the creation of number of jobs and
no limit was set as to expenditures.
If the present boxing commission is
not honest and efficient, the facts
should be made known and it's men,
bers removed, said the governor.
