There it. bound to be a lot of fire-works, fans believe, when Jack Delaney. of the borough, stacks glovesagainst Young ''Gummy" Snyder, ofthe S i Stephen's, of Amboy, at theAmboy boxing show, Monday night.
The bout, which is to be but a four-rounder, will produce plenty of ac-tion, according to expectations.
Delaney has been in earnest train-ing for weeks, waiting for a match.Jack is training with Johnny Carrolland should be in perfect physicalcondition when the pening gong iasounded.
Snyder is making a good rep forhimself as a result of his recent bouts.
Gummy" is a fast boy in the ring,which is something new for the ma-jority of the Amboy' swappers.
St. Joe Midgets CagersFinish In Fine Style
The St. Joe Midgets closed theirbasketball season and put the finishing touches on their excellent recordwhen they took two games from the
match with Roy Schank, ofBrunswick and as a result, two thiogi '"happened: Schank was labeled thecounty champ in his claims and a mowwas started to match' Schank wi%Johnny Carroll, Carteret's i d o lboxer.
Lynch'3 defeat may in part be 1ft.'tributed to a terrific smash to t t ejaw in the first round. Schank co»^.',^nected with the Carteret boythe end of the round and Dick toflk;'!]the count for nine. The blow igered him so badly that hegroggy when he went to hisand had not recovered fully from thft^leffects of it when the bell sounded fa t 'the second.
Schank went at him hammer a n ltongs, following up his advantage rf;the earlier blow, jus t thirty second*after the bell sounded Schank landfllanother smaah on the jaw ojf the Car-fceret lad and the fight was _pver. Itwns staged as a six round bout.
Lynch was becoming the idol of agoodly crowd of local fans and wa»'coming to be regarded as a seconiCarroll. He Had scored a series "wins and knockouts. He has a 'that carries a sleeping potion; helearning ring generalship. In a \the future looked mighty bright Star,;the Carteret boy. • •
There is no reason to think that Hi*future lies behind. Many of the b e *men in the ring have been handed.*knockout early in their career a o | .built better and went farther anfr-higher afterwards than they em*,would have gone without the experi-ence.
Dick was a bit careless, according1
to some of his close friends. He dm ')not train as thoroughly as he shouliand he was not as strict in regard ka. \rest and smoking as he should haw 'been.
What "Red" must learn bv h e a r t ithat success in the ring is not perma-nent unless the price of success mpaid in the way of preparation. Part,of boxing is the punch and the culti-vation of skill in defence but adeal depends upon endurance.

Football has suffered its second great loss in the space of afew months. Last November, Percy Haughton, <me of the reallygreat coaches of all time, succumbed while coaching the Colum-bia football team. Now, in the midst of the meeting of theFootball Rulea Committee, Walter Camp, the Father of Foot-ball, has passed out of the picture. Both men died at theirposts, working for the game they loved best.
Our only solace in the collapse of Paavo Nurmi the othernight at the Knights of Columbus games was the realizationthat after all be was human. Up tA now we have regarded him88 a machine, running hifl races against his stop-watch, neverclipping the records by so much that he would be unable toagain lower them the next time. But in his 5000 metre raceagainst Willie Ritola, Nurmi showed us that he had a stomachthat could go wrong, although a heart that would not break.His face contorted in pain, the great Finn kept on until his bodyno longer would obey his will. Even then up "to 'the time thathe was forced to abandon,, the struggle h e h a d broken threeworld's records at different distances.
The Yankees need new blood baldly- Once a winning teamfalls off it goes quickly. Huggins should make a radical shake-up if he wants to get results. His best bet in the long1 race isUrban Shocker, who is due for a banner season. Penndck, al-though looking frailer than ever, is a clever pitcher, but Shaw-key is about done, Jones an uncertain quantity, and Hoyt arank in-and-outer. The rest of the team lacks the will and spiritlo win with the exception of the one and only Bambino.
''Babe" Ruth is *'there." How he does it with that waistline is a mystery. But you will see him again out there, getting,a couple of intentional passes a game, busting the ball out of thelot, running the bases like a wild man, and taking,his hat offto no man in fielding.

Trenton.—It remained for (he doaing minutes of the 1925 BCRSIOII of theLegislature to brlnn forth tlio pettyscandal. Alton M. Trimble of Monmouth county, secretary of tho StateAthletic Cpmmisnlon, was literallychased from the floor of the House olAssembly by Speaker Powell afterTrimble had been accused of eavesdropping on the last conference olthe Republican majority.
Th« majority members of the Housewere In caucus tn the speaker's roomand were discussing Senate' bill No151. Although this bill was Intro-duced by Senator Reeves ot Cumberland, It applied principally to a sitnation existing In Asbury Park. Thebill, which was subsequently passedover the Qorernor's veto, will give amunicipal body control ever the letting of concessions on the beach frontand Is 4eslgned to permit AsburyPark to give these concennlona to onenot the highest bidder. Walter Reada theatre owner, has certiorated theaction of Asbury Park In not lettingthe beach front bathing concessionsto him and the bill will defeat theluit of Read regardless of the outcome of l he litigation.
As the conferees were discussingthe bill Speaker Powell saw Trimblethrough a crack in the door, suppos-edly eavesdropping. Powell and Trimble saw each other at the name timeand, as the athletic young speakustarted for the secretary of the Ath-letlo f'ommlsslo'n, the latter mude fothe chamber. Trimble eluded Powel

The bill was then rushed over to theAssembly, where It was passed Inshort order. The bill then became alaw over the veto, The official hourfor adjournment was 12 o'clock, butnot having finished business at thathour both houBA stopped the clocksin their respective chambers and pro-ceeded with the work still In hand.
It was the first time since the pres-ent appropriation bill system was In-augurated In 1895 that a. governor ha*vetoed the entire measure. Seldomhas a year passed that some Itemshaven't been disapproved, and It ha*happened once In a while that gover-nors have allowed the bill to becomelaw without their signature. The GOTernor was so generally opposed to thebill that he said he could do nothingbut send It back to the legislature withthe recommendation that tf be re-vamped.
The legislature was severely critlotted by the Governor ID a messageaccompanying the veto for the mannerIn which H adopted the appropriationsbill. He declared the members guiltyof gross neglect and their action Hbetrayal of the Interest ot the taxpay-ers of the state. He recommendedthat they postpone adjournment untilthey could prepare a new bill.
"This appropriation bill," the Gov-ernor wrote, "carries with It the ex-penditure from state funds of over•15,000,000, and a gross expenditure ofover $19,250,000. In the expenditureof so large a sum of money it In theduty of the Governor and of every leg

FirstGood husbands are sometimes the

of the above observation. Lest any-one should leap to over-hasty con-clusions, Anna Q. hastens to assurethat it has no reference to her ownmarital exnenence as toe wife ofJohn Gunnerson, millionaire shoemanufacturer.
As a matter of fact, it is the con-clusion drawn from her latest screenmarriage in "If I Marry Again,"
First National attraction Monday,Tuesday and Wednesday at the Dit-mas Theater, Perth Amboy. In thisphotoplay she plays a wife whosehusband lavishes on her everythingbut affection and understanding.
"A woman cannot be satisfied withbeing merely her husband's wife—shewants to be his mate," says MissNilsson. "And if she cannot wakeherself her husband's mate and help-meet—he must let her be,
"Devotion cannot be forced.

We don't suppose that the Selwynwill remain very long untenantedwhen "Puppets", will close in a weekof two. • The fortunate situation ofthe house enables its owners to quick-ly dispose of .any idle time they mayhave on their hands. '
To us there is only one importantitem in the show: that Dwight Fryeis a surprisingly clever and dramaticactor. It seems his talent has beenquietly slumbering beneath the thick-ness of light juvenile character make-ups for some time past and it is tothe credit of Mr. Pemberton that heput something really worthwhile infront of Mr. Frye'h noBe with thecommand of "Eat It!" But eventhough the thing Dwight "ate" washis most ambitious part since thosewonderful spring days last year whenhe "made" himself, theatrically speak-ing, as "Horace" in "Sitting Pretty,"even though the remainder of the cast(principals and all) works like ahouse-cleaning day in the country,and even though, at times, the play

Fitzmaurice Tells Of InfluenceOf Native Life in Rome Filming
Some of the difficulties confrontingan American producer working in aforeign country are amusingly de-scribed by George Fitzmaurice, whomade "The Eternal City," a FirstNational picture, based on Sir HallCaine's story, which is coming to theMajestic Theater, Perth Amboy. Thecast of this superproduction comprisesBarbara La Marr, Lionel Barrymore,Bert Lytell, Richard Bennett andMontagu Love.
In addition to this stellar quintette,Mr. Fitzmaurice had engaged fiftyItalian actors (the picture was filmedin Italy) who were extremely wellknown on the Continent.
Here is the producer's story ofwhat he encountered when he at-tempted to direct the American andItalian actors at the same time:
"Our first shots were made at thebeautiful waterfalls in the garden ofthe Casa Villanova, and there I be-gan to notice the influence of influ-ence.
