The BoardwalkerB, the Shore's only prof essional team, certainly are entitled to all the support we can give them. We have seen the Boardwalkers play several times and were highly entertained.

Stetter, a Wanamassa resident, was a defensive standout in his own right.

Earlier in the day, hundreds of persons lined up inside the auditorium and some gave up after waiting as long as three hours.

The conditions are ideal for the Shore cage fans to watch the Boardwalkers. The Convention Hall is ideal for home games, both in respect to parking and comfortable seating. The price is also reasonable.

Games Are Exciting, Players Good The games are exciting and the teams in the Eastern League are stocked with truly great players. The Boardwalkers should improve now they have acquired Larry Armstrong from the Hartford Capdtols. Armstrong is a stimulating player. Although only six-feet tall, Armstrong led Hartford to a 135-128 win over Asbury Park in their initial meeting as he pumped in 36 points. It is only natural that the Boardwalkers, a first year team, have had trouble winning during the first half of the campaign.

They took over a franchise of a quintet that 011I7 won four games last year. Teams Reluctant to Part With Stars None of the other teams wanted to part with' any of their star players and this is understandable. The first real standout acquired by the Boardwalkers in recent weeks is Armstrong, who we think is just the spark they need. We honestly like the Eastern Basketball League games better than the National Basketball Association games. The teams in the Eastern League play more exciting ball and go all out all the way because they are fresher, playing only twice a week.

Traveling Hampers NBA Play Too much traveling and too many games hamper the play of the teams in many games. One can always be assured of top performance from the Eastern League quintets. We also like the Eastern League rule which gives three points for long shots, taken behind a half-circle line. This rule enables teams to come from far behind by successful marksmanship at long range. We urge you to see for yourself and form your own opinion of Eastern League basketball by visiting the comfortable Hall to see the Boardwalkers in action.

We think you will return once you go. Sheehan Is Honored George Sheehan, CBA graduate, was named college alumnus of the year by the N.J. Catholic Track Conference. The Manhattan College senior led the Jaspers to a fourth place in the IC4A title cross-country run. Hurdler Sal March, a transfer from Chaminade High School in Long Island, is one of the bright spots in CBA'a track picture.
