DIOCESAN GAMES.
Hudson County Athlete Won
the Individual
Prize.
REMARKABLE CRICKET GAME
One of zimmerman's Records
Broken-0arsmen Rowed Fast
Baseball Contests.

The field day of the Diocesan Union,
Its first, was a success financially, but
unfortunately there was theusual friction
that attends the initial effort. The
meeting was held on Saturday at the
Caledonian Park, Newark, and the track,
the chief cause of dissatisfaction, was in
wretched condition. Many of the COM
petitors rather than take chance OF
stone bruises, or more serious injuries IN
the event of an accidental fall, with
drew. The miserable state of the track
was best shown in the bicycle races.
Two wheels were disabled. Hargin's
wheel was punctured, and the Sacred
Heart Society was probably deprived OF
the honors for the best record in points.
The Institute Athletes of Newark had a
lively crowd. They were put on the list,
but were debarred from contesting as 1t
was claimed their secretary had not MED
the list in time.
Then the large delegation from St.
Luey's parish. his city, had a large
growl. Their champion, Keane, won
the ree-hundred yard M run; Put TTaas
Jersey City boys yelled robbery and &C,
cused the referee with being prejudiced
in favor of Newark athletes. Keane
would have had the race easily, but he
attempted to get the inside in pursuing
McAuliffe, who had the lead. 1t was a
clear foul. and the decision was Just;
lac Keane kept the outside he would
have won and would also have taken
the prize for the best individual record
as it would ave given him thirteen
points. He may not get any, as a pro-
test was entered against him. 1t Is
charged that under an assumed name,
]. j. Hannah he contested for the cash
prizes at the picnic of the
Association of this city on July rs, and
won a fiye-dollar gold piece.
The individual prize was won by a
