SaItzman's Cohorts Out For
Revenge--Lose First Game
at Railway

The crack Rawhay Y. M. c. A.
basketball team is scheduled to clash
with the Woodbridge Big Five bas-
keteers on the Union county court
tonight in a return contest. Several
weeks ago the Union county associ-
alton team downed the coIor of the
Woodbridge representatives by a
four point margin in a closely con-
tested battle.
Manager Saltzman is Of the optn-
ion that with Ray Handcrhan and
Charley Brownmiller of this city, to-
gether with the Martin brothers and
Mesick of Woodbridge, his quintet
will be successful in returning from
Railway with the bacon. He claims
that several bad breaks saved the
first game for the Railway basketeers
The Railway team has the associ-
alton court well studied out, hav-
ing played On same the past several
seasons This advantage along with
the fact that games on the Railway
court r played one hand dribbte,
makes it quite hard for a team to
down the association basketeers on
the Union county court.
The Y. NJ. c. A. team has played
in this city and surrounding towns
several times during the last few
years. Van Mulcahey of auditorium
fame Is the offieicial referee for the

An announcement by Bill Seihoth,
chairman of the committee planning
the Patrolmen's Benevolent Assoeia-

day night, March 90, is to the effect
that he has matched Benny Hertz

put J 9 Colletti and Ray Belmont on

Hertz-Carroll contest as the semi
final. The six round bout will be be-
tween frankie Gargano and Carl
