CRASH
ON CROSSING

While crossing Washington street
and Amboy avenue yesterday after
noon, two large automobiles crashed
into one another and the occupants
Of the cars badly shaken up. Cor
oner Flynn together with his wife
and child, in their e. M. F. car,
were going down Washington street
and an Overland car, owned and
driven by Peter Byrnes, of New
Brunswick avenue, crossed Washing
ton street over Amboy road.
Both drivers realized that a
smashup was inevitable and applied
their breaks at the same time, try
ing to edge off. They met sideways
with great force, nearly ousting the
riders from the cars. Mr.. Byrnes'
machine is more damaged than
Flynn's, having the back portion and
wheel torn away, while the mud
guards on the coroner's machine
were dented. Both men considered
their escape very lucky and after a
talk decided to pay for their own
damage and place the responsibility
upon no one.

There will be a handicap track
and field meet held on the Copper
Works Fairgrounds every Tuesday
and Thursday. Every track event
will be followed by a field event.
There will be two divisions of con-
~testants. One class will be COM
prised by those weighing 80 lbs. or
over, and another class comprised of
those weighing less than 80 lbs.
Those in charge of the different sec
tions of Fairgrounds will set the
handicaps, to make more interest
and stronger competition.
Il =
In the Junior League the Acmes
forfeited to the Ginders on account
of o appearance. A scrub team
with BILLY" Wilentz on the slab
played the Ginders with Mikkelson
on the mound. The final score was
Z to 7.
One of the most popular games
played at the Fairgrounds is corner
ball. Except that boys replace bas-
kets, the game is exactly like basket
ball. The court on which it is play
ed is 80 feet long and 20 feet wide.
1t is divided into two equal parts.
The four n which meet at the
two extreme points of division are
called bases. On one side of the
division (Which is denoted by a
iine), n team of four or five are
stationed and the same number on
the other side. Two of the number
of each team occupy the bases men
toned before. One of each team is
placed in a marked ring, from where
he is not supposed to step out. An
other man faces one of the other
team Immediately at the center point
of division and the ball is tossed up
between these two, who are called
centers. This part of the game is
exactly like basketball. The ball is
tossed about and continues in
play until a foul is called or a play
er in one of the rings gets the ball,
which is a small basketball. The
man in the ring may put one foot
out of his marked circle in attempt
ing to catch the ball. The other play
ers may move about freely in their
respective spaces but no one is allow
to cross the center line, this part
being similar to girls basketball. If
the ball is thrown out of bounds, the
nearest member goes after it and
returns it to a teammate. The team
whose player in the ring catches the
ball, while in the ring with no more
one foot out, is given two points
for every such catch. If a team COM
mits any fouls, the nature of which
will be explained below, the opposing
team is awarded one DOint. The
team getting the most number of
points wins the game. Fouls are
called for the following: Holding
the ball I'VE three seconds stepping
into a corner (ring) mans base, cor
ner (ring) man putting his feet out
of the ring. Members of opposing
teams batting the ball out of each
others hands, and %dribbling.
