IIoOray!
Cut out the knocking.

Cut out the knocking.
Go out and see Sundays game, II
you ever go to see Sunday baseball.
Hughey McCune and his bunch of
warriors will play harder than ever.
The Atlantic City team is n good
one and plays the best teams in the
business. If they don't come it will
be the fast Quakertowns, who played
the locals an eleven-inning game
June "a, winning out by punching
three hits which were coupled with
one of the few errors McCune has
made. 1t was a great game, 4 to 2,
and If the QuaSertowns play here
Sunday, the game may be just as ex-
citing. But whether the Quaker
towns or the Atlantic Citys, 1T
should be a good game.
The three leading Factory League
teams pitchers are all twirling splen-
didly and can be relied upon. Colyer
cSf the Pardees is doing corking work,
as are also Olsen, of the Copper
Works. and Mullen. of the A. S. & R.
team. wiz ,Hornsby made good in
the first nine linRings OF that fifteen
inning contest Saturday before last
when Mullen went INTO the box for
the extra innings.
No wonder the St. Nathonys lost
Saturday afternoon, for it0'waS their
"23d" game this season. Then nave
wone twenty games of the tw1epty-
three which they have played.
The Puritan A. G. did well in d9'-
feating the st. Anthonys Saturday
as the latter are fine young players
as shown by their long winning
streak which ended Saturday. The
Purtans' battery was Holman, p,
and Hickey, C.
Too bad the Raritans lost Satur-
day. But then its not too late to
start in and win seven straight games
again and If they should be fortunate
enough to do hat they will deserve
all kinds of credit.
Notice how the Keystones keep on
winning, throwing a whitewash coat
In once in a while?
The Excelsiors, of Pleasant Plains,
are proving themselves to be a
crackerjack aggregation.
Craig and Case, who played sever
al games with the Perth Amboys, as
well as RUDE Burroughs, who pitched
a good game for the local team n
Sunday this season, will, If the re-
port be true, play with the reorgan-
lied American Bridge Company nine
in the Delaware Valley League from
which the Waldron and Curran teams
have withdrawn. One rumor. which
IS most persistent, and for which
there appears to be much basis, Is
the one that Gus Waldron is to be
given a position with the American
Bridge company, and that he will
take the cream of his team and of
the Bridge Company nine, and man
age them as the Bridge Company
nine.
1t would be a long days work to
find an outfielder who has anything
on Drew Case. That boy will soon
be ripe for big league company II he
keeps up his present pace.
The Lancaster team, of the Tri-
State League, is after Harry O'Hag-
an, the we'll known ball player.
O'Hagan coached the Rutgers nine
this year and is well known In this
city, where he caught n game for
the locals two seasons ago. He is at
present playing first base for the
Waterbury team in the Connecticut
league and It is not likely that he will
accept the offer made to him by the
manager of the Lancaster team.
O'Hagan by his good playing has
landed the Waterbury team in first
place in the Connecticut league. He
is also captain of the nine.
1t is said that Walter Clarkson and
Joe Yeager will be shifted to Mont
real by the New York Americans.
James J. Collins. captain and man
ager of the American League Club,
in Boston, has been suspended for
absence from the team without leave.
Collins tried to play a few days ago,
but his injured leg prevented, n
throwing the BAH down in disgust he
left the grounds and has not since
been seen. Itiis presumed that he
became disheartened with the con-
slant losing of the team and his W
disabled condition, and threw up the
whole task. During his absence Stahl
