GRAYS HERE FOR FOUR=GAME SERIES:
DOUBLE=HEADER SUNDAY WITH SHELTERS

Duffy is anxious to get up into the
first division and expects to capture
more than a majority Of the games
here.
On paper Duffy's bunch does not look
as strong as it did last e Few of
the Newarkers who saw that happy
daring bunch of ball players who opened
the season at Jersey City will forget
the good impression they created. Of
course, Duffy strengthened the team
later in the season and at the finish
the Grays were coming strong.
We haven't seen the Grays travel up
to date, but from the showing they have
made against the Shelters it would
seem as though they will give us a
good run for our money.
Abstein on first is clouting hard for
the Diggers, while Izzy Hoffman and
Arndt are also there some with the
stick. In the out1eld is Jimmy Bar
rett, one a big league star, but whose
leg bothered him so much that he was
of little use to the Boston American
Club. Providence obtained him, and
he is now playing centre field. Many
think that Jimmy has seen his best
days, but he seems to be strong with
his bingles.
Jack Phelan is in right, n Roy
Rock, n of the most popular players
that ever visited Newark, is back at
short after an absence of one year.
Whether or not Rock is still the same
player who dazzled the league with
his brilliant playing at the short field
remains to be seen. Outside of Cronin
and Barry, the pitching staff is a new
one.
On Sunday Manager Stallings intends
to give a little bargain, which local
fans will fall for no doubt in large
numbers. Stallings's big offer for sun
day will be a double-header with Joe
Beans Skeeters. AS an added attrac-
ton Joe Bean has promised to put in
Young Jack Ferry against the Tigers;
a host of Ferry's friends are bound to
be on hand.
1t will make little difference to the
Tigers who will serve up for Jersey
City. The Bengals are hungry for the
blood of the Insects, and with a flying
start obtained at the expense of the
Grays, they hope to run ove into Mon
day with a clean string.
The playing of a double header with
the Shelters on Sunday will please local
fans, who want to see the proud In
sects from the other side of the Passaic
sent deeper into last place.

would put one over that sure looked
the part of a strike to perfection, but
the umpire would call it a ball. Out
would rush the pitcher, with McGraw
on his heels n Kelley on the full run
from left. They allowed kicking in
those days. Before any of the pro-
voked Orioles could get in his work
Robbie would whisper in the UNI
pres ear in the silkiest kind of tones,
Say, l know it's a S to miss 'em.
Those curves fool me sometimes" And
by the time the other Orioles would be
letting off explosives of high potential
ity that umpire would be swearing to
the catcher that he never would miss
another one so long as he lived, and he
couldn't for the life of him figure out
how he came to miss that one. mo
lasses!" "Conerino!' "Salve!" Various
were the names Robbie applied to
any name it was effective. Fines, en-
forced Withdrawals from the game,
penalties of all sorts, were revoked as
the sun dissolves the morning mists.
But twice in his twenty-one years of
baseball life did Robbie" himself fall
under the ban-once in 1900, when in
st. Louis uniform at Brooklyn, and
again In Detroit in 1901. In this con-
neetion it is notable that pon each
occasion the decision wis so unjust
the team left the field and forfeited the
game with the vociferous approval of
the supposedly hostile audience.

must say the Kid never looked better

tale of wee to spout about. 1t seems
that Kid dropped over in Elizabeth to
see a fight the other night and Smiling

where and failed to show up. The Kid
was spied in the audience and he was
asked to fill in, and without the aid of
a second even he consented, although

But, as They Only Say 1t, You
Don't Have to Believe
Them.
BY OLD

That Jack O'Brien-Jack Blackburn
six-round fight over in Phillie last night
resulted in this: Blackburn was
knocked down in the first round, and
then the W kept plugging at each
other until the end of the sixth. From
the opinions of those who saw the
battle 1t was on the level and should
have been declared a draw if decisions
were permitted.
Abe Attell must be getting nutty. He
a V he wants to fight Joe Cans. But
he only a y so. l think if Cans would
go after this youngster and offer him
winner take all Abe would suddenly
recall that he has a promise of a nght
with owen Moran, one of he many
bows in his class whom he didn't whip.
l would like to know the brand of dope
that Attell smokes, for it would certain
ly help us poor fellows along when we
are broke. 1t would make us think
we were ~millionaires for a second any
way. Abe Attell would have as much
chance with Joe Cans as a-well, what
is the use of telling that old snowpaH
gag over again? You all know 1t.

to get back into the ring again. l
stood for the boy once to whip Il old
pal Terry, and he came under the
wire with the money. But l knew then
that he came direct from a restaurant
kitchen, where he was earning a small
pittance in Denver washing dishes.
That's where that kid came from to
fight the Terrible Terry, and you didn't
know it, eh? Well, it is the dope just
the same, and not exclusive stuff, for
the u~p-to-date sporting men knew of it
at the time. While he was doing this
drudgery McGovern was opening wine
for a lot of sports in Chicago. When
Corbett said he wanted to fight Nc
Govern the world laughed at him. They
didn't stop to consider that Corbett
was there while Mac was dissi-
pating too much. That was the dope
that won out for the few handful OF
Corbett men, who got as much as $l0C
to $40 that Mac would win.
Well, Corbett says that he is coming
back. SO we all are if the good book
