every time the ball was carried down
under Closter's iron rim and net by
Cliffside dribblers and a passer would
attempt to sink a basket, either the
ball would hit the rim or go so far
past its mark that the poor judg
ment by some fan was misinterpreted
for pass.
There is no excuse for any such
wide shots with men like Corrado,
Hoffman, Hodgins, Modess, Rose, Hall,
Rice and Yoost playing together. This
is the honest opinion of the writer of
this column.
The first half ended with the Grim
son and Black on the top by lead of
two points, but also with the loss of
her two stars, Yoost and Rice, who,
up to this period had been doing the
greater part of the playing and were
sent to the showers on personal fouls
by Referee Hobbs.
In the second half Rose was substi-
tuted for Yoost and Hodgins for Rice
and again the Parkites began rushing
the pace; but, to put it in chemistry
form: the loss of Rice and Yoost plus
the frightful dead eye shooting, yield
ed victory to the Obstetrics by mar
gin of 13 to 8.
In summarizing the game one would
say, Cliffside played rings around her
larger, heavier and far more expert
enced rival, quintet that has played
together for the past two years on the
ribbed floor. The Crimson boys gave
the neatest and most dazzling exhibit
ton of pass work ever witnessed by
the high school students and fans of
that town. The Cliffside boys lost a
contest which should have been cap
tured with the very slightest ease.
The girls made it look like even
steven when they gave the Closter
girl basketball tossers a beating by
the score of 1855
That is the lowest score the rival
girls have ever been held to. The
wonderful playing of A. Coppoletta
and G.. Degen held the Closter for
wards to one field goal and four fouls.
1t was also their good playing that
kept the ball down at the other end
of the court. r. Ramento1 did the big
scoring against the Heights team.

CIiffside Beaten After Furiously Con-

In one of the most thrilling and
dashing games ever played at Closter,
N. j., the Cliffside boys received their
first drubbing of the 1925-26 basket
ball season, while the girls again
walked off the floor with smiles of vic
tory.
About $40 o'clock Wednesday aft
ernoon the varsity members of both
girls and boys teams with group of
ardent followers clustered into an
awaiting bus just large enough to ac-
Commodate them. In an hour and a
quarter the boys were on Closter's
court all set to begin that which prov
ed to be heated contest.
Referee Hobbs tossed the ball up
as both teams took positions. The
scrimmage for supremacy began amid
deafening cheer, led by the home
town student rooters. Cliffside was
the rst to score, Rice sinking the
first two-pointer, to be followed by a
basket from Fioresi.
The pass work of Cliffside worked
with unusual skill and speed. They
had their rivals completely ratified
with their astonishing floor work, but

Watching Clifside
High
Senior Promenade Expected to Be a
Greater Triumph Than the
Junior Prom
With Daniel Drappa

All arrangements have been COM
pleted for the dance to be rendered
by the senior class. The entertain
ment will take place this evening at
High School gymnasium. Promptly
on the dot of eight o'clock the affair
will get under way.
An immense gathering is antici-
pated, the attendance of post-grads,
school students, many outsiders and
town folks. The feature of tonight s
dance will be the music. Mr.. Connell,
an instructor in the High School, also
a parsonage of considerable good
judgment concerning jazz music, has
engaged to liven matters up in a musi-
cal way, the famous Jack Kelly and
his Mexican Troubadours.
This set of music makers are ex-
tremely well known throughout the
atmospheric kingdom. Many DIX fans
recall with much joy the wonderful
musical programs these troubadours
have transmitted by way of air from
number of radio broadcasting sta
tions. 1t will be great to move about
from their trombones and saxophones.
Those who were present at the
Junior Prom given by this class last
April recall to your minds the gor-
geously decorated gym which was pre-
sented to the people who attended.
The gymnasium for this prom, under
the supervision of Glass Advisor Mr..
John Long, will be even more re-
splendently adorned with their class
colors than the preceding affair, which
was the prettiest sight ever witnessed
on Cliffside dance floor
No one realizes the work and
patience it requires to hang up. these
decorations but the workers. Enough
credit cannot be given to Mr.. Long
and the senior class. For two weeks
gone by Mr.. Long and many students
of the senior class have with much
ferventness and earnestness labored
on the basketball court, labored their
and beautiful.
All those who are lucky enough to
attend this entertainment and see how
magnificently ornamented the dance
floor is, will readily agree that all the
Industrious workers, students and Mr..
Long have been repaid for their
serious and tedious efforts.
Girls Basketball Team
Monday at noon the girls basketball
team travelled to West New York
High, where they lowered the girls
banners when they defeated one of
Hudson county's strongest teams. The
wonderful playing ON the part of the
guards, A. Capoletta and Grace Degan
and Side Center Shelinsky helped give
Cliffside it's well earned victory. The
score after the final frame stood 10-5.
