different squad each Sunday, he soon
left the ranks of the Apologize crew.
His work was not marred by a defeat
and his b%rilliancy can be imagined
from his wonderful performance
when he defeated the South River
club with Harry Apologize on the
mound by a 10 score.
Eddie Regain has also made an en-
yiable mark in baseball circles, hav-
ing graduated from the Ashlands to
the Franklins, who are LOW II of
the leading teams in the county. He
started at the midway sack and soon
showed his ginger and snap at that
position. He is now occupying the
right pasture, not because he is not
capable at second base but because a
nor experienced man is in the
Franklin ranks. 1t was down in Red
Bank when the Orioles, of that place,
entertained ~Applegate's bunch that
Eddie showed his real class. Not
only did he play a star game in the
field but his sticking won the battle.
In this fray, Apple struck out 20 men
while his opponent made Is Whit.
The final tally was 2-1 and Eddie
poled out the triple and single that
figured In the scoring of both of the
Franklin %tallies. and naturally COPIED
the bacon for his team mates.
The Ashland baseball boys should
be given much credit for their new
recruits.

Two Recruits.

Among the baseball tossers who
have gained note this season by
graduating from junior to senior cir
cles are Murray Borlund and Eddie
Regan. These two athletes hail from
the Ashland camp and the members
of that club should be proud of the
fact that their association has ad-
vanced such tossers as to be able to
jump from their ranks into the best
class in the county and retain almost
a regular berth with their respective
aggregations.
Murray Borlund, who was known
in this burg only under the name OF
Murray until the NEWS revealed his
correct cognomen to the fans, twirled
for the Ashlands at the beginning of
this season and figured in a victory
every time he entered the slab. His
smuggling was also a feature Of his
work. His abilities as a mound per
former were soon realized and the
Athletics, of his home town, gave him
a chance to work one Saturday.
South Amboy fandom did not believe
the youngster would last more than
two innings but he stuck it out for
the entire nine sessions-and what's
more he came out ahead. The oppos-
ing batters were swinging every
where but where the ball wa1. He

st. Johns Will Travel to

Because of the great rivalry be-

wick, the st. Johns, of the former
burg, will travel to the county seat
Sunday In strong style and will make
a desperate stand to procure victory.
One of the warriors which Manager
Luker. Of the South River aggrega-
ton, has signed up for Sunday is
Atkinson, the slab artist Of the South
Amboy Athletics. Atkie is a favor
lite in New Brunswick and his appear
ance will no doubt be a drawing card.
The Driscoll clan found the husky
mound artist none too easy to solve
and it is probable that the county
seat Stars will find him a puzzle too
difficult to be handled in nine in
nings.
The Philadelphia Athletics and the
New Brunswick Professionals will
battle in the main attraction of the
afternoon Sunday.

Playing in brilliant fashion, Mike

by a 32-15 score, in the Oaks first
game of the season. The battle be-

of the victorious squad, and the
crowd expected to see the Goodwills
forge ahead in the second part but
