cracks. The team played with the

Manager Scott, whose address Is
South Orange avenue, South Orange, Is
DESTROYS of arranging games for both
at home and abroad with all fast anna
teur teams within a radius of one hun
dred miles.
Pitcher Nieser, of the Hospital B. B.
c., of o~verbrook. is pitching fine ball.
In the last two contests he has worked.
he has allowed but seven hits.
Second Baseman Clawson, OF the
yatlsburg A. A., is certainly oloutins
the ball for that team. In the game
against the Armorys Sunday he made
three hits. all Of which were good for
two bases.
.tRup'' Mills is putting up "a star
game for the Arlnorys. His batting of
late is remarkable. "Rup' will leave
for Miiesford, Pa, in a few weeks.
where he will play with the big Miles
ford team composed mostly of forlner
college stars.
In Foster for catcher the Soinmer
a. G. have secured one of the best
backstops In this vicinity. On Satur-
days he catches for the Summit Y. NJ.
G. 4. team. Both managers think high
ly. of his abilities.
Fallon, twirling for the Jefferson A.
A., has yet to lose a game this season.
/ His stunt of striking out nearly a half
score of men Is a feature of every game
in which he performs. .
The Sommer A. c. have a valuable
man in Farley, last year with the Es-
seq A.. c, Besides being a clever twir-
le,, he can fill in any position on the
team when called upon to do so.
Joe Flannery is home from Des
Moines, having jumped that Western
League club while 1t was on the road.
Joe is playing with the Montclair A.
a. on Saturdays. Another boy from
these ~diggings back again. There are
a few more who are making good, but
they are scarce.
Force, the Armory A. C.,s clever
backstop, is working in that capacity
for the Montclair A. A. on Saturdays.
Harry Ogden, the former Branch
Brook Lacquer, has been signed by the
management of the Branch Brook A.
c. He pitched his initial game Sunday
n came out a victor. Ogden is a
southpaw. n although he has little
speed. his many benders make many
good batters Whit.
The Newark Athletics reem to have
a hard time winning their games. How
ever, 1t is early yet, and with a little
