RIVERSIDES M PB HOUSE"
h 11 spechm contest
Long cherished dreams took form
a la terra Arma last night when the
truly splendid Young Men's Chris
tian Association gymnasium was ded- j
icated to the worthy. cause It was j
erected to, with a fast victory by ι
the Riverside basketball quintet
over the Parish House team, of j
Voodbridge, to the tune of 48 to 32. j
Η was an event which will linger j
long in the pleasant memory of the
large crowd which was on hand.
For years basketball players, busi
ness men and the student alike have
had in mind the arrival of the time ]
when basketball in Perth Amboy j
would be linked In a great measure
with the team "Y. M. C. A." A good
many years have passed since bas- j
ketball first saw the dawn of day in
this city and only a remarkable re
juvination will duplicate the zenith1
of favor occupied by the pastime
about three or four years ago, but
just the same, the advent of a Y.
M. C. A. court into the life of the
local game was never conceded a
thing too late and one, appreciation
of which, would ever be lacking.
Last night In the cozv, officially di
mensioned and splendidly appointed
court, there were many business and
professional men in attendance. In
the crowded gallery could be seen
the faces of local men through whose
efforts in a great measure was made
possible the anlend'd structure now
available ps the r'srbt kind of resort
for tho right kind of vnung men In
Perth Amboy. By their "ides sat
the young student, lassie and sr.ores j
of others interested, not so much in
the nature of the game being played
before Uieir eves as in the fact that !
this night witnessed the informal
dedication of that wh'ch Perth Am
boy business and professional men
had deemed one of the c-tat neces
sities for their community.
In a pinch the evm can accommo
date a crowd nf pliout fiPO people
Last night, however, but half that
number were present. The receipts
went towards the fund being raised
to complete the furnishing of the
•structure. Both teams rendered
their services gratis. Inasmuch as
twenty-five cents was charged at the
gate, a substantial addition was
made to the fund.
\Vhile a lot of closer frays will no
doubt be waged on the Y. M. C. A.
court, It Is doubtful if there will ever
be in evidence thirty-five minutes
of such sensational shooting. Clcse
guarding made necessary "long
chances" by the Parish House sharp
shooters. That their efforts bore
fruit la seen from the score and line
up. There was action every second
of the time, the swaying, flying mass
of ten players flashing about the
floor in dizzy fashion. The two teams
set ouSi to play a guarding game and
for a few minutes it looked as though
a skirmish across the Russ-Turk
front would be a piker in contrast
to the results of the auspicious bas
ketball tussle. But the two quintets
let up a little towards the middle of
the half.
It wasn't all Riverside by any
means. In fact, the Parish House
demonstrated that Woodbridge
would be very much on the basket
ball map during the remainder of the
season. Unlike the seasons of the
past, the P. H. is not a two-man, to
wit, Ryder and Wand aggregation.
The two Simonsons indicated last
night that there will be no monopo
lizing of honors by Individual mem
bers. Ryder's brother, judging from
his showing, promises to keep up
the family standard. As for Marty
Ryder, himself, he is better than ever
this year, just shoots 'em In from all
angles and ducks away from his
guard like an elusive phantom. ,
The Parishioners started with the
tap of the gong. Wand had the hon
or of tossing in the first point in the
new court, sending his team in the
lead with a free throw. In less time
than it takes to tell, the Parishoners
were leading the Rivies by eight to
four. For five minutes more the Par
ishoners retained the lead.
During al lthis time the itivie
«harp shooters were doing every
thing and anvthing but put em in.
They had all sorts of chances at '.be
basket. Once the scoring fever grab
bed the bunch, however, it was «11
off. Everything seemed to go. Had
the aiming machine been on the job
in the early eve, the Rivies would
have gotten away with a bigger plu
rality, however. »
Once the R'vies romped into tho
lead, they stayed there. The first
half ended with the tally twenty-one
to twelve in their favor. The period
of rest appeared to do the Rivies a
lot more good than the visitors, ior
in the first minute of play, the locals
dropped four field goals through the
net. Just as the Rivie crowd start
ed to encourage their pets in pros
pective runaway, Messrs. Simcinson,
the two of 'em, vent ofr, Ftirk mad.
A minute later they werj joined b:>
Marty Ryder and the shots they per
petrated from the center of ihe
court and from almost «•very other
angle was a sure cure for sore eyes.
But while the Parlshoners were
pulling off these hair-raising per
formances, the Rivie adding machine
was slowly hut surely pulling up a
safe lead at the other end of the hall.
A few substitutions were made anil
then the McCreery-Cantlon-Thomas
scoring machine started on its way
with effectiveness.
One of the notable stunts of the
evening was the way in which
"Hank" Thumus held down Wand to
no baskets and tallied three himself.
Wand, you will recall, was a star
of the top notch calibre several sea
sons ago during the Rivie-Pnritan
series. ι
With Regan, Burns, McCreery and
Allan in sight, the scene was οηβ|
which reminded the spectato" of the]
good old days when basketbill was
in its prime and the Riv'es '.lie big
dictators. As for the Parish House,
the least about that crowd Is that
they sure are the "comers" of the
basketball bunch around these dig
gings. The score:
Parish House.

RUTGERS PREP. ABANDONS
FOOTBALL FOR THE SEASON'
Football lias been abandoned by |
Rutgers Preparatory school by action I
of the faculty and all games on its I
schedule for the remainder of the.
season have been cancelled. This ac
tion has been taken chiefly through
Injuries sustained by two of the star i
players, Goes and McGovern. The
former injured his left leg in the Me·
tuchen game, and the latter sustain
ed injuries to both hiB shoulder and
head; the former in practice early
in the season and the latter in the
High School game.
The Prep team played but four J
games this season; two with Metu-i
chen, one with Battin High and !
one with the High School. There j
was not much good material in the
school this season, and Coach Goes
had more than his hands full trying
to round out a team. The game
scheduled for this Saturday was
with Pennington.

Keyport, Nov. β:—An exciting
bowling match is scheduled for the
Brunswick alleys tonight, when the
local high school bowlers will take
on the second team from the Penn
sylvania Railroad Y. M. C. Α., of
South Amboy. In the contest rolled
at South Amboy the local pinknights
won two of the three games and are
confident of taking three in a row to
night. The Amboyites are determined
that the local bowlers can only be

scores.

GOOD HUNTING
CAN BE FOUND
IN MIDDLESEX
Middlesex county contains some !
îood h,unting ground, according to·
Joseph Crawford, a writer for the
Newark Star. In a second of his se
ries of hunting trips published, he
points to gunning territory in Wood
bridge and Raritan townships and
elsewhere in the county. He writes
that there is a great siretch of wood
land and field in Middlesex county
between Menlo Park, on the Penn
îylvania Railroad main line, and· in |
Woodbridge, on the Amboy division |
in which many rabbits will be I
found. One of the roads that leads
to Iselin from Woodbridge will be |
worth following, as is the road from
Woodbridge to Valentine's.
The Perth Amboy-New Bruns
wick trolley car passes through Val
entine's and Fords Corners, and
either place is good for the first few
days of the season. Bonhamtown, >
a village about two miles southwest
of Valentine's is in the centre of a j
good rabbit country especially along ι
the road that leads to the Raritan j
River.
■Sayrevilie Township, in Middle
sex county, is a great hunting Bpot
just now. They say that there are
more gunners living in that section
of the state than in any other town
ship. The Clieesequake creett sec
tion will appeal to any man that
knows good game country. Easton
has quite a few quail and pheasants
tills year, to say nothing of the rab
bit. Easton is on the Camden and
Amboy division of the Pennsylvania
railroad, two miles from South Am
boy, and by following the road to
Jacksonville the hunter will find
plenty of game, or he can do equally
as well by hunting along the road
to Old Bridge.
Jacksonville is at the head of
Cheesequake creek, and there is a
small hotel handy, but the trip can
easily be made by automobile.
Morristo'.vn, in Middlesex county,
between Matawan and South Amboy,
is a good place for rabbit3 and for
quail. There is a road leading to
it from Seidler's Beach, on Raritan
Hay, the distance from the bay to
the village being two and a quarter
miles. All along the road from
Morristown to Jacksonville rabbits
can be found, and the farmers say
they have seen many evidences of
quail and English pheasants.
Two miles south of Jacksonville
and three miles west of Matawan is
Browntown. Anywhere within a
radius of three miles, game can be
located. Warne's Brook and Ten
nent's Brook are" between Brown
town and Jacksonville and more
woodcock have been seen there this
fall than ever before. Quail, rab
bits, squirrels and English pheas
ants are there also. Any one hunt
ing the fields along the road from
Browntown to Old Bridge or In any
direction will find game. This vil
lage is only a hour and a half's run
from Newark by automobile, still
it is practically unknown to the
hunters.
SAYREVILLE IS
Il HEAVY LOSER
Special to the EVENING NEW8.
South Amboy, Nov. 6:—Bowling
In unbeatable style the Y. M. C. A.
team administered another defeat
last night to the fast Sayreville crew,
taking all three games. The locals
won by over 200 pins, although they
barely captured the first game of the
match by elx. "Mert" Ingraham's
bowling featured the match, the Y.
M. C. A. star alley man bowling re
spective scores of 207 and 210 in the
last two games played. Popp proved
to be the steadiest bowler on the

LEAGUE PRPJECJ IS BOOSTED AS
PARDEE BOWLERS BEST GUGGIES
Wtth the rolling of another set of
games of the Pardee-Ameriean Smelt
ing and Refining Works series on
Kmll Bohnsack's alleys last night,
came the almost certain prospects for
a factory bowling league in this city.
The United Lead Works and the Bar
ber Asphalt Paving Works as well as
the Guggies and Pardees had repre
sentatives on hand and the project
was warmly supported. In the games
rolled Pardee members again came
out on top, taking two out of three
from the smelters. The latter took
the first event by a margin of ten pint
and after that everything came the
Pardees' way. They rolled above the
800 mark in the second game. The
Pardees have won six games and lost
three, and the (Juggles have won
three and lost six games.
It Is firmly believed that an Indus
trial bowling league, which will be
similar to the factory baseball league
conducted here each summer, will be
come a reality witMn the next few
weeks. Bowling Interest has been re
newed. Factories have the material
end all that is required is organiza
tion. Two factories already have rep
resentative teams and two others are
organizing aggregations. Pour teams
———
would be sufficient for conducting a
league, but six or eight aggregations
might give increased interest, it is
stated. However, if no other factor
ies are heard from by the early part
of next week 1t is likely that a
league will be formed with four
teams.
Arrangements are being made to
hold a meeting of team representa
tives in the EVENING NEWS office
commencing at 8 o'clock Monday
night. The subject of organization
will then be taken up.
The scores last night follow:

PERTH TO MEET
METUCHEN HIGH
METUCHEN FIVE
MEETS iUHER
After being out of the same fori
the past week and a half, the Maurer
Ave will appear In combat against a
fast quintet from Metuchen tonight.
The Metuchen collection will be com
posed of some of the fastest tossers
troni Metnçjien and around New
Brunswick. Davis, who formerly
appeared on the Riverside lineup,
will appear against t"he Maurer crew.
In addition to this exhibition, there
will be a preliminary contest staged
tonight.
On Tuesday night the Maurer ag
gregation will endeavor to break the
winning streak of the fast-going
Sewaren five. Thus far the Maurer
quintet 'has played two games and
won both. They played an all-star
aggregation for practice a few times
and were beaten once, but the
Maurers do not count that on their
record a» a defeat, claiming that it
was but a practice game and their
opponents did not play in regulation
uniforms at tlie time. They also
claimed that they had on regular
walking shoes and stepped all over
the Maurer players. A southpaw for
ward of the all-star combination Is
making some noise about the victory,
according to Manager Gadek, of the
Maurer Five. Mr. Gadek declares
that the other players acknowledge
that the game was only staged to put
the Manrer warriors In shape for
their meeting with the Riverside
Pirates. Brilliant work has been ac
complished by the Maurer aggrega
tion and they do not want their
reputation marred without just
cause.
Special ta the EVENING NEWS.
j Sewaren, Nov. 6—It has become
[ evident that the presentatiou of good
! basketball here is not appreciated,
for which reason the clever Sewaren
five has found it necessary to go 011
the road. Attendance has been so
poor at exhibitions stage£ on the
Boynton Beach court that not
enough money was collected to pay
expenses.
No stone has been left unturned

The high school football squad
will appear again on the gridiron
when they face Metuchen high school
tomorrow. After their defeat last
Saturday the team has been out
every day practicing hard and will
be in much better condition this
week than they wire last Saturday.
Coaches Allen aud liurns have been
sending the players through some
hard scrimmages and they have done
all they can to improve the team.
"Tuck" Pfeiffer will bo used in tlio
lineup this week. There have been
several other changes in the line.
Andrew Jackson has returned to
school and will be in the line next
