Over-Confidence Of Locals'
Big Help To Davis Bros.
Seitat. 'vliich can be credited as
tli- wor.-t of\he year, was registered
uv.r tile Berth Amboy Speedways by
the Davis Brothers quintet of New
V-j'li on til Auditorium court Satur
day night. Ovcrcantidence is entire
l.v to blame tor the loss of the game.
Af. r forty minutes cf play it was
found tnat the Davis Brothers were
on the long en.1 of a 25 to 23 score.
Duriug the opening period of this
game the Davi* Brothers were out
k played und ther»'were many who be
\ Uevcd ti.at the New Yorkers did not
have a chance to cop the contest.
J'or the greater part cf this halt the
Speedways ;.eld a comfortable lead,
and at half time the locals were lead
ing by a i6 to 5 score. It is the opin
ion of many that the home players
could rvgily have registered a great
many more points in this session.
With an eleven pcint lead and
Judging from the pace the New
Yoikers were setting. Captain Char
ley Brcwnnilllcr replaced Bay Han
derht n. Although anyone can read
ily estimate the strength of Bay
Handerhen to the Speedway machine
the entire local outfit, is responsible
for the manner in which the New
Yorkers were allowed to creep up in
tha second period, finally to win the
game.
in the opening period the Speed
ways outscored their opponents from
ths field, seven to two, but in the
final session the Davis Brothers drop
ped in eight double counters to three
for Amboy. Tr baskets by Hymie
■ Spike’’ Davis were entirely respon
sible for tho outcome of the game.
His first basket was about four min
utes to go brought the New Yorkers
up to within one point of the Speed
way* and a foul later tied the score.
With about two minutes to go his
field coal was dropped in
from the vicinity o£ the foul line.
George llavis was the high scor
ing star for the visitors in.this game
accounting for ten points, while Han
sen ied the local team in scoring, i
Both the Speedways and ther New
Yorkers scored ten field goals. The j
defeat on Saturday night made it I
three in a row for the local repre
sentatives and ten setbacks for the
season. The Speedways have now
bean defeat?! thiee times on the Au
ditor'um court.
Gene rark*r was the eleventh man
on the floor Saturday night. He call
ed siver. foal on the New Yorkers,
and Bav Kanderhan made one while
Hat sen made two out of six ch.arse.
Twelve foil’s were called on the
Speedways and the visitors made five.
The showing of Harry Davis, the
highly touted Harmony club tosser
in tl:e game Saturday night, has re

Relations Between the Two
Schools to be Reopened
Today
.
—
For tlio first time in many years
sport relations between Woodbridge
and Forth Amboy High Schools will
be resumed tills afternoon. The lo
cal varsity quintet will travel to
Woodbridge to stack forces against
the fast going representative school
team of that place. A hard fought
game is anticipated.
Woodbridge and Perth Amboy
have always been most bitter ri- i
vals on tlio court, diamond, track
and gridiron. There came a time j
when it was necessary" to sever re
lations and since that time little of- j.
fort has been made to resume nc-;
tivities.
Manager Ed Fatten of the local
varsity team is one party responsible
for tlio reopening of the sport chan
nels between the two schools. A
record crowd is expected out this [
afternoon given though the Perth
Amboy team is practically out of the
running for county school honors.
This fight for supremacy is bound i
to be as interesting ns any contest
for any championship. It is prob
able that the Amboy team will use
Grieve and Cohen, forwards: Jim
Patten, center, and Hughes and Mar
tin, guards. In a short time the
two teams will clase in the second
game of the series on the local

Winning a championship title In
any branch of sport is yjie thing,
holding it is another.
On February 22, 1912, Johnny
Kilbane won the featherweight tltlo
from Abe Attell at Vernon, Califor
nia.
Kilbane has held the title ever
since, and on the twenty-second of
this month celebrated the tenth
anniversary of lifting the crown. No
other tighter under the .Marquis of
Quecnsbury rules can boast of such
a record.
A year after winning the title
from Abo Attell, Kilbane defended
it against Johnny Dundee. The bout
went the limit, twenty rounds, and
was declared a draw by Rofcree
Charlev Eyton.
That is the closest Kilbane has
come to losing his crown in ton
years. The Dundee bout was a very
even affair, and Kilbane was fortun
ate to be favored by the referee’s
decision.
In 1916 George Chancy loomed up
as the fighter to dethrone Kilbane.
Hi* record of knockout* caused fight
experts to make him a favorite over
the champion. Kilbano knocked
Chaney out in three rounds to great
surprise of the pugilistic world.
On September 17. 1921. Danny
Crush met Kilbane for tho title. So
confident was Crush of victory that
ho took on the bout for merely a
guarantee of training expenses. Kil
bane received $60,000.
Kilbane knocked out Crush In
seven rounds. Jn this bout Crush
claimed the title on a foul, but
Referee Walter Kelley refused lo
allow it and made him continue.
In 1917, due to a lack of good
featherweight material. Kilbane 6s
sayed entering the lightweight class
ami met Champion llenny Leonard.
In that bout Kilbane suffered the
only knockout of his career. Leonard
stowing him away in the third
round.
