by Tommy Murphy and X. O.. Brown
arranging a. return watch if Murphy
be willing to give Brown what he him

match between the boys, as Murphy is
too good a boy to be knocked out by
a fellow like Brown in a few seconds.

from making a consistently brilliant

To the Sporting Editor of the Evening Star:
Baseball fans in Belleville and Nut
ley are discussing freely he proba-
bility of a series of games this season
between the Mutual A. A. team, of
Belleville, and the Nutley A. c. team.
So far the managers of these ggre
cations nave made no apparent efforts
to agree upon a series of contests.
This is unusual, as a number of
games between Belleville and Nutley
are generally arranged at the opening
of the season. Probably the Genes
rivalry between any intertown semi
professional teams in this section IS
prevalent in Belleville and Nutley
For over twenty-five years players
representing these places clash about
six or seven times annually, and on the
diamond they decide their dexterity IN
the national game. Last year Belle
willie. came out of the series with vic
tory, but it was only after a harl
tussle.
When Believille and Nutley meet
face to face on the baseball diamond
there is always a vast crowd of root
ers attracted. Followers of the sport
are asking why Manager Frederick F.
Pertsch, of the Mutuals. n ]. H.
Dorch, manager of Nutley. do not get
together and arrange a series of games
