The game will be played on Tottenvllle Oval and a big crowd is expected to turn out and root the locals to victory. The season Is fast dying out, but the enthusiasm here continues. The Alaskas are one of the fastest independent teams in Greater New York. From this team have grad- uate! such stars as Matty Mclntyre and Jark Cronln, both playing big league ball. This year the Alaskaa have In their line-up two players who go to the leagues next fall.

Here "Overcome by enthusiasm I ran no longer resist calling your attention to 'our boys'—the Athletics and the Morgans—especially the former. To refer to the Athletics and not men-: tion their pitcher, Ambrose Atkin- j son, the best in the county would be indeed a sin of omission In the last] seven games he has secured lour home runs, five three-baggers, and! some doubles and singles. Some bat- J ting, Eh! "And so on down the line, with j Keating, Coakley, Stratton, Maxfield.' Borlund (who has returned to col- j lege), Kelly. Hackett, Molly, and In j fact the whole team is par excellence, j That the fans are strong for "Akie" j and his crew was demonstrated on Sunday when they packed the train j secured by the Morgan A. C. What i they did down In South River Is his- j frory, and such sweet history! The j local team was composed of Ave I Athletics and four Morgans. "The Athletics sure have some rec- j ord since organizing under James (Sport) Kelly, winning fifteen] straight games. The final victory on J Saturday was a thirteen-inning con- j test with the All Stars, of New Brunswick, In which Keating made the most remarkable catch out in left field ever seen on the Star field. j He hurdled a four-foot fence and I clutched a screaming line which was j labelled four bases. Then Coakley appeared on the scene. With two | down and two on base he stepped to j the plate and slammed out a two- bagger, winning the game. We will | back them with our bank roll against | any Perth Amboy team composed of j all Perth Amboy players. "As for the Morgans, the following effusion proves their standing: "I note the Amboys lead the City League, And the Giants are speeding for the flag But for such news I do not care a fig; Have not the Morgans copped the County Rag? "There may not be a pennant for their feat But you can't deny they are the County Champs! South River claimed It. but they met defeat By the boys from the club house near the camps."

Howard Koons was elected mana- ger of the Junior basketball aggrega- tion yesterday afternoon In the high school building. Karl Williams waf chosen to captain the '13 team and he expects to get his squad out foi practice soon. The basketball team of the pres- ent Junior class has played more games than other class teams In former seasons and Manager Koons does not expect to make this season an exception. With Koplowitz, Gold- berger, Koons and Williams on the lineup, all the other class teams can expect much trouble from the Juniors in the interclass championship games. Several games will also be booked with Woodbridge high school and Tottenville high school. GREAT HITTERS HAVE FANNED THREE TIMES. Those discussing the relative merits of the big league batsmen, Ty Cobb, Larry Lajole and Hans Wagner, can no longer remark In any argument against Cobb that the world's great- est ball player has been fanned three times in one game while Lajole and Wagner never underwent that torture. Manning, who used to pitch for the New York Highlanders, set down Ty- rus three times In a game played In New York. That was Bome time ago. Still, Wagner and Lajole never ex- perienced the same displeasure until recently, and a peculiar coincidence was that both Larry and Hans fanned three times on the same afternoon. George Suggs, former Tiger, pitching for Cincinnati, handed it to Hans, while EM Walsh, who won fame this Beason by pitching a no hlt-no run game, struck out Larry In three out of four times at bat. BASEBALL POINTERS Umpire Johnstone says that in the last nine years he has seen only three games In which but one ball was used. Experts declare that Barry of the Athletics gets In front of batted balls better than any other shortstop. Not only does he get in front of them, but b<?

A' ording to newsraper talk la New Brunswick, the Von A. C. of that city and the South River A. C. will play the first of a series of games for the Middlesex county championship on riunday afternoon at South Hiver. Where do the Am- boys, of this city, and the Morgans, of South Amboy, stand- is the ques- tion asked by the fans of Perth and South Amboys. Regardless of whether the series is for any bunt- ing or not, games will be played per schedule and no doubt the winner lyill claim the championship. So far as the writer has been able to End out, and he has talked with i the managers of the South River A. C., the Ambays and the Morgans during the past two days, a post sea- I son series between these teams and I the New Brunswick Vons could : easily be arranged. Morganites I state South River has a fine bun-.il of nerves if they can arrange a ! championship series after the drub- bing received last Sunday at the hands of the South Amboys boys, j The Vons returned the champiom. ! of the New Brunswick City League and proceeded to claim title even I before-the Perth Amboy City League closes its season. But that is base- ball "Possession is nine points oI the law," some one said.,.

Just imagine, dear reader, the girls hare three j votes to two of the boys, to elect a baseball manager, track, footba' I and basketball managers. . I Miss Kelly, of the committee, lin- ing in Spotswood, is acquainted most likely with the running game, hav- ing many runners training near Spotswood.

mm •J TO RECORD HOLDERS.

A ball team is hot helped by players Wltio hare in mind their Individual rec-

ords and overlook the welfare of their team. It is because John McGraw dlfc- cournges such tactics that his team has been a success this season. The same

is true of the Cubs and the Athletics. Ball players to be valuable to a team need not have remarkable records

They need not be leaders, but if they work for tho best interests of their team they brln? about desired results.

Unfortunately, the player who works for his team does not always get the credit he deserves, whHe the chap who Is out to make a record for himself fre-

quently receives applause which he should not be given.

There will be something doing on

Sunday afternoon out at Amusement Park. The Puritans and Marions will clash in the first game with the Danes vs. the Amboys as the second attraction. Both gomes will be for blood and the fans can expect fast baseball all the time.

New Brunswick expects to greet "Dave" Driscoll Sunday afternoon. They have buried the hatchet (and the hammer), so to speak. "Dave" is a splendid manager, but he sure did give the county seat fans a raw deal two years ago. Again, well.

...

Those Riversides went up against a snag last night and went up hard. They expect to land on their feet in a few days with a game. So. David says, anyway.

Every real fan in the city Is sav-

SOUTH AMBOY FAN WRITES

Expresses His Feelings to

Bosco Abou1 ame.

a-r—mm South Amboy fan who -writes to

"Bosco" _and tells bis feelings, but a—^ — cor : -n Is run the breezyVi column

— rt,t* side of tfaacaK OW^Og to its length. Here

"Overcome by enthusiasm I ran no

longer resist calling your attention to 'our boys'—the Athletics and the Morgans—especially the former. To refer to the Athletics and not men-:

tion their pitcher, Ambrose Atkin- j son, the best in the county would be indeed a sin of omission In the last] seven games he has secured lour home runs, five three-baggers, and! some doubles and singles. Some bat- J ting, Eh!

"And so on down the line, with j Keating, Coakley, Stratton, Maxfield.' Borlund (who has returned to col- j lege), Kelly. Hackett, Molly, and In j fact the whole team is par excellence, j That the fans are strong for "Akie" j and his crew was demonstrated on

Sunday when they packed the train j secured by the Morgan A. C. What i they did down In South River Is his- j frory, and such sweet history! The j local team was composed of Ave I Athletics and four Morgans.

"The Athletics sure have some rec- j ord since organizing under James (Sport) Kelly, winning fifteen] straight games. The final victory on J Saturday was a thirteen-inning con- j test with the All Stars, of New Brunswick, In which Keating made the most remarkable catch out in left field ever seen on the Star field. j He hurdled a four-foot fence and I clutched a screaming line which was j labelled four bases. Then Coakley appeared on the scene. With two | down and two on base he stepped to j the plate and slammed out a two- bagger, winning the game. We will | back them with our bank roll against | any Perth Amboy team composed of j all Perth Amboy players.

"As for the Morgans, the following effusion proves their standing: "I note the Amboys lead the City

League, And the Giants are speeding for the

flag But for such news I do not care a fig; Have not the Morgans copped the

County Rag?

"There may not be a pennant for their feat

But you can't deny they are the County Champs!

South River claimed It. but they met defeat

By the boys from the club house near the camps."

HOWARD KOONS THE MANAGER

Elected by High SchooS Juniors-Basketball Team.

Howard Koons was elected mana- ger of the Junior basketball aggrega- tion yesterday afternoon In the high school building. Karl Williams waf

chosen to captain the '13 team and he expects to get his squad out foi practice soon.

The basketball team of the pres- ent Junior class has played more games than other class teams In former seasons and Manager Koons does not expect to make this season an exception. With Koplowitz, Gold- berger, Koons and Williams on the lineup, all the other class teams can expect much trouble from the Juniors in the interclass championship games.

Several games will also be booked with Woodbridge high school and Tottenville high school.

GREAT HITTERS HAVE FANNED THREE TIMES.

Those discussing the relative merits of the big league batsmen, Ty Cobb, Larry Lajole and Hans Wagner, can

no longer remark In any argument against Cobb that the world's great- est ball player has been fanned three times in one game while Lajole and

Wagner never underwent that torture. Manning, who used to pitch for the

New York Highlanders, set down Ty- rus three times In a game played In New York. That was Bome time ago.

Still, Wagner and Lajole never ex-

perienced the same displeasure until

recently, and a peculiar coincidence was that both Larry and Hans fanned three times on the same afternoon.

George Suggs, former Tiger, pitching for Cincinnati, handed it to Hans, while EM Walsh, who won fame this Beason by pitching a no hlt-no run

game, struck out Larry In three out of four times at bat.

BASEBALL POINTERS

Umpire Johnstone says that in the last nine years he has seen only three games In which but one ball was used.

Experts declare that Barry of the Athletics gets In front of batted balls better than any other shortstop. Not only does he get in front of them, but

~ ^ Frank Bowerman, the veteran catch

er, says Larry Cheney, Lonlsvilk pitcher, is the best spitbail pitcher in the game. Bowerman has caught many spitbail pitchers. He caught Cheney when both were with Indianapolis la»t eeason.

George Jackson, the new outfielder of the Boston Rustlers, who has been making things hum since breaking into the majors. Is no relation to Joe Jack- son, save that both belong to the broth erhood of swat

Nick Maddox has been pitching so

well for the Kansas City club that the Pirates, who have an option on him, will submit him to the recall. Maddox pitched three two hit games In succes-

sion and In the Missouri valley is re-

garded as a greater twirler than O'Tooie.

THIS CITY IS NOT IN LINE

Amboy Wants Part in County Championship Series.

A' ording to newsraper talk la New Brunswick, the Von A. C. of that city and the South River A. C. will play the first of a series of games for the Middlesex county championship on riunday afternoon at South Hiver. Where do the Am- boys, of this city, and the Morgans, of South Amboy, stand- is the ques- tion asked by the fans of Perth and South Amboys. Regardless of whether the series is for any bunt- ing or not, games will be played per schedule and no doubt the winner lyill claim the championship.

So far as the writer has been able to End out, and he has talked with

i the managers of the South River A. C., the Ambays and the Morgans during the past two days, a post sea-

I son series between these teams and I the New Brunswick Vons could : easily be arranged. Morganites I state South River has a fine bun-.il of nerves if they can arrange a

! championship series after the drub- bing received last Sunday at the hands of the South Amboys boys,

j The Vons returned the champiom. ! of the New Brunswick City League and proceeded to claim title even

I before-the Perth Amboy City League closes its season. But that is base- ball "Possession is nine points oI the law," some one said.,.

School Snorts Principal Kleinhans has informed

some ol the football enthusiasts that it woud be useless to start activl-

| ties on the gridiron without a coach.

| But where is a coach? The Ath- letic Association is rich. Loosen up the purse.

...

! The nominating committee reprs- ! senting the seniors, consists of three girls and two boys. Just imagine, dear reader, the girls hare three

j votes to two of the boys, to elect a baseball manager, track, footba'

I and basketball managers. .

I Miss Kelly, of the committee, lin- ing in Spotswood, is acquainted most likely with the running game, hav- ing many runners training near Spotswood. Elizabeth Weiablatt and Gertrude Ernst are well informed about baseball and basketball, both, having followed up the St. An-

thony and Riversides, respectively. I So this perhaps accounts f^ the choice of the fair sex mal'

"Dug" Couden will most likely be a help to the track team. If two more 440 men come to the local high school, the crimson and white team may bring some more laurels from Philadelphia this year

...

Couden is also a high jumper.. Ia fact, he is better at this than at th« "440."

...

The inter-class baseball cham- pions, who lost "Joe" Coley this year have not lost their hopes of an-

other championship. A southpaw pitcher called Shilke, formerly of Matawan, is now a member of the class of '12, and the boys expect their new member to do the heaving for their squad next season.
