DANES WILL
PLAY RAILWAY
Expect to Bring Home Some
ScaIps- Good Game.

The Danes will travel again this
week to a good game. This time
they will appear at Railway and ex
pect to take another scalp from the
fast team at that place. The Rah-
way aggregation is one of the speed
lest in the business and they can
show many of the teams in this
vicinity a lot about the game. The
Danish nine don't care how much
the upstate boys know about the
game for they will perform a few of
their WI original jokes on the lads
and hope to bring them down on
their knees from the initial round on.
Those who have been following the
record of the Railway nine know that
they have been putting out a classy
article of ball and are capable of
winning from some speedy teams.
They want to class the local boys un-
der those whom they can beat but
the nine from this city are leery
about being in that class for they
are sure at the present time that
they are as good If not better than
their opponents up the state. The
claims of the Railway lads are based
on their record and 1t is a good one
but in spite of this the Danish fellows
will make a hard stab at the bacon
before they leave 1t.

Fish Tales 2


Van Pelt had a number of boats
out yesterday and all reported good
catches, not a single angler having
the ~proverbial fsherman's luck.
Blue fish are now being caught in
large numbers and almost every fish
erman comes in with an assortment
of weaks and blues John Miller OF
Newark hooked 9 weaks, Berger and
Schultz, of Newark took 10 blues
and 2 weaks. John Kelley got %
fish, both blues and weaks.
Fluke weighing three and four
pounds were caught off Keansburg
yesterday and Tuesday. Edward
Flynn and Herman Robbracht, of
Newark, caught twenty-six, Fred
Babston and Harry Jennings. also of
Newark. caught eleven and four
weakhsh.
Big weakfsh were at South Beach
yesterday, and, while only a few fish
ernen were on hand to catch them.
there is sure to be more there today.
Jim Foster caught seventeen, George
Roberts eleven and Joseph Corrigan
sixteen. They were with a Newark
party.
DR.. Henry Nolte and Mrs. Nolte
and Mrs. Joseph Crawford, Of New
ark, fshed at Keyport yesterday and
caught twenty weakfsh. Fully a
dozen of the fish weighed close to
three pounds and made it interest
ing every time one was hooked.
Charlie Lining, of 16 Feney
street, Newark, fshed near the black
buoy Just below South Amboy Tues
day and caught sixteen weakfsh and
bluefsh. Cliff Lining. of Newark,
a there yesterday and caught
twelve weakfsh and Ave bluefsh.
Peter Merlette of South Bound
Bound Brook claims he caught IS
bass the other day In one of the IN
land streams@and threw them over
again because they were TOO small.
1t seems funny that he should have
the luck Of catching as many as
thirteen without getting one of le-
gal size. aturday he got eight
which he brought home. He does
not say where he got them but We
r TO suppose he caught them. No
body should doubt q fisherman.

PERTH AMB0YS
Spotswood Thinks They Are
Entitled to Game.

Repeated efforts have been made
to arrangfe another game between
the Perth Amboys and the Elm A
A. OF S~potswood. These teams met
before and the Perth Amboys came
out In the lead 7 to 4. The Spots
wood team was ahead until the lucky
seventh when the local lads got to-
gether and Grabbed the game in
great shape. The game was played
at Spotswood.
Now the Spotswood lads think
they are entitled to a return game
which is to be played In this city.
They are even willing to play for a
side bet of s25. Manager Levoe, CT
the Elm, has made repeated at
temps to arrange a game but so FAR
Manager Hardiman of the Perth
Amboys has declined to accept the
challenge.
Whether the local lads are afraid
of the Films after the first game or
not is not exactly brought out but
the fact still remains that they are
backward about setting a date for
every inducement they can think of
but still no game appears.
According to baseball ethics there
Is usually a return game played
whenever requested by the party
who had the hard luck in the first
meeting. There is no reason why
Perth Amboys should be slow about
accepting proposition Of the the Films

THE ELM. A. 4.
South Amboy to Clash With
SpotsWood Saturday.
Special 20 the EVENING NEWS.

South Amboy, Aug. 10:-With
Atkinson in the box the South Am
boy Athletics expect to do the heavy
work against the fast Elm A. A, of
S~potswood, Saturday. Atkinson did
star work last week, shooting eleven
men down to S. o. path in six in
nings and allowing but four hits. If
all the statesmen in the game would
have a record as good as his there
would be some classy games see
every week around this place. He
will try to perform a similar stunt
this week.
Last week the Elm batters could
only make w good clout at the ball.
Something was the matter with their
batting eye, but they claim they have
fully recovered and are prepared to
bat the ball around the plot in great
style. The game will interest many
JAMS from this place and it is likely
that a record crowd will be on hand.

Further progress has been made
In the arrangements of the City

sion. The game now proposed for
that date is the Marions and Danish
Sociables and the game is likely to
be a good me-.
Much interest Is being taken in
the league, especially since the
EVENING NEWS has offered a hand
some pennant to the team having the
season. The EVENING NEWS pen
nant seems to be a great incentive
for the teams and players alike and
each nine is making plans to capture
it If possible. 1t is also reported that
local sportsmen In this city are
making arrangements to add to the
interest in the league by offering a
suitable trophy to the player having
the highest batting average. The
mar who takes this prize will be ex-
pected to partake in a certain num-
Der of games and be a regular mem
Der of one of the teams. Already
some of the a~spirants have been out
on the lot preparing to take this

FROM
PORT READING
Manager Penrose Criticises
the South Amboy Athletics.

The manager of the Port Reading
F. c., who PLAYED the South Amboy
Athletics last Saturday, is peeved at
the way he was treated by the off,
Gals of the South Amboy team. He
has no fault to find at the result of
the game, but he thinks he was bad
ly dealt with in other lines. His
communication is as follows:
Port Reading, n. J., Aug. 9, 1911.
SPORTING EDITOR OF NEWS.
Dear Sir
AS a warning to the baseball
teams playing the South Amboy
Athletics hereafter I wish you would
make public the treatment we, the
Port Reading Field Club, received
from them last Saturday.
They called me on the phone and
asked if we would play their team at
South Amboy Saturday, August 5.
l told them we had the date open
and if the guarantee was satisfac-
tory we would play but that we could
not come down for less than $40.
This they promised to give US and
We played them with this under
standing. After the game the man
ager came to NE and told me IS was
the best they could do. This amount
of course. did not cover u expenses
and I objected, and they intimatet
that the IS was all that I could ex
pect ~and-rather than take none I &C
cepted the money.
I am therefore led to the belle
that they needed a team badly an
held out the $40 as a bait to get U
down there with the full Es
they could not pay and did o
tend to pay the guarantee agreed
upon. IL I had known that SIS was
all we were to receive we positively
would not play for less than the
them when making arrangements we
Would not play for less than the
amount agreed upon before the game.
Previous to the game l had been
told that Sport Kelly was the mana
ger of the Athletics. but l found an
other party had the reins in hand,
n whom l have not the slightest
confidence in.
I have no fault to find with the
result Of the game. We were beaten
fairly, due entirely to poor pitching
on the part of our pitcher (Schaum-
loefel) in the first and third innings,
in which they scored eight of their
nine uns Schaumloeffel improved
and the other run was scored on an
error.
Thanking you for your favors I am
Very truly.
