MOTORING BOWLING
FISHING BOATING
ST. ANTHONYS
PLAY ALASKAS
Will Meet Staten Island
Crew on Aug. rs.

After proving their calibre by the
clever exhibitions given on Staten
Island soil the St. Anthony baseball
nine has finally arranged a game
with the Alaska b~alltossers for Au-
gust 25 at Alaska Park, West New
Brighton, S. /. At first Manager
Marty O'Hara planned to have the
St. Anthony-Franklin battle staged
on that date, but as the Alaskas
were satisfied to break one of their
scheduled dates to meet the Saints,
Marty thought it his duty to seize
the chance of booking a game with
the fast Brighton boys and will call
off hostilities with Applegate's crew
until the following Sunday.
The Alaska team has held out for
many weeks against giving the
Saints a game, since they at first be-
lieyed that the State street boys
were not in their class. But after
the fact that the st. Anthonys de-
feated the Tottenville A. G. 4 to /,
and walloped the Stapletons 16 to s
was pointed out to the manager of
the Alaskas, he could not evade the
issue and he consented to grant the
st. Anthonys August Is as the date.
1t will be a big game and all dope
indicates to a St. Anthony victory If
nom of the players are injured. OF
course, If one of the players of
Yenk's calibre is put on the hospital
list by game time, there will natur-
ally be a difference in the chances
of the local boys. But as the teams
stand now, using the former per-
formances as dope sources, it must
be admitted that the State street
boys look like winners.
The bunch which Is managed by
O'Hara and coached by Pick Null
len, has among the scalps in their
camp those of the Huguenot, Staple
ton and even the T%ottenyille baseball
nine. Each of the aforementioned
teams was defeated by decisive mar
gins and also on Staten Island soil.
No island aggregation has defeated
the Saints this season as yet. On
the other hand, the Alaskas have
only been able to tie the Tottenville
crew on the Alaskas own battlefield.
The first game between the Totem
vile bunch and the Alaskas only
went two innings, ending 2-2; the
last fray went seven spasms, the
final tally also being p.
Stapleton beat the Danbury team
that defeated the Alaskas and the
st. Anthonys trimmed the Staple
tons, so it's easy doping, as far as
former performances go, that the
Saints look the more formidable.

NEW MANAGER
FOR DEXTERS
Red" TeoIan Will Leave
ToWn--FootbaII Dope.

Sporting fraternities will miss
John Toolan, the "440" runner of the
Perth Amboy high school, who won
second best honors in the quarter
mile distance in the East Jersey
High School Leagne meet in Red
Bank about two months ago. Red
as he is better known, will be a Cor
nell student in the fall and he will
carry along his activities to Ithaca,
the home of Cornell College. Toolan
graduated from the high school June,
1912, and is a popular boy. Besides
being an athlete, he was president
of the high school athletic associa-
ton, captain of the track team, and
held several other positions of note.
High school students and supporters
of the crimson and white bemoan his
loss, but wish him the best of sue
cess, both in academic work and ath-
netics.
Besides affecting the school athlet-
les, Toolan's leave will mean a
change up in the affairs of the Dex-
ter football eleven. Red" was man
ager of the Dexter's last season and
was elected to serve another term
His absence will mean that a new
man will have to be chosen to handle
the affairs of the Dexters. Under
Toolan's management, the local grid
iron football men were the cham
p1ons of the county on the gridiron.
In fact, they did not lose one game
last season. Every team which came
to oppose Toolan's bunch fell before
the attack of the strong Dexter ag-
~gregation. All the teams recognized
the local boys as a crew of sports
and every team which met the Dex-
ter eleven, never raised a "holler'
about an unfair deal-and that is
something unusual in any sport. Be-
sides being manager of the Dexters.
John is also reputed to be a star
gridiron man himself. All the fans
IN this burg want Red" to don war
toys and appear on the gridiron, but
several years ago he broke his
shoulder blade while practicing with
the crimson and white eleven and
since then he has been prohibited by
his parents from playing the sport.
Who the new manager will be ia
not yet known. A meeting will soon
be held by the local squad of grid
IRON athletes because many have sig
nl1ed their intentions of starting the
season early-at least to commence
practlcing early. The PLAYERS are
much worried over their coach.
Thomas Hanson, who is EMPLOYED in
Ambr1dge, Pa, and may not return
lor the coming season. They are
awaiting word from their popular
coach.

FISHY TALE IS
TOLD BY CHIEF
Prominent Men Report Big
Catch at Barnegat.

Chief of Police Patrick J. Burke
and a party of friends who J~ourneyed
to Barnegat On a fishing expedition
"Wednesday, returned with smiling
countenances. When the party was
approached by a NEWS reporter, all
stated simultaneously that the Police
Chief was elected the press agent for
the crew and he would make reports.
with an honored air, Mr.. Burke an
swered in a heroic manner that the
party caught 46 fish. 1t was a sur
prised look the scribe slanted In the
direction of the crew of other Usher
men, but they assumed a non-com-
initial air, apparently being content
ed with the report made by their
press agent.
Of course, there is every reason
to believe the press agent is telling
the truth. just as press agents US
ually do, but some were inclined to
feel skeptical because the cher a
been the only n authorized 10
speak about the trip. Following his
statement to the reporters it leaked
out that one man caught nothing and
that Master Neal Kelly pulled them
the party. He was credited with
catching half a dozen.
Following are the other proud
members of the party who are re-
ceiving congratulations for the sue
cessful trip: Recorder Henry w. Ke-
hoe, Detective Sergeant John A.

ans CreN on SATURDAY..
Special 10 the EVENING NEWS.

Helmetta, Aug. 15:-Manager
Hogan, of the locals, has booked a
star attraction in the Catholic Club,
of New Brunswick, for Saturday af-
ternoon, The college town boys have
proven their calibre on numerous
occasions and as the Helmetta nine
is going strong at this stage of the
eason it appears that a good match
will result. Manager Hogan is try
ing to get the Colored Giants from
|Hightstown to play here August "a.
All fans are on edge for this battle

ONE MORE BIG
BATTLE LIKELY
ASHES" and Princetons May
Decide Supremacy Sunday.

Another big battle may be staged
Sunday. But this fray will be be-
tween two leading junior aggrega-
lions. The Ashlands. who found that
they could not stop the IroQuois, may
play the Princetons, the leaders of
the Junior League-the organization
that was. Harold Tippet, manager
of the Ashlands, Is hunting for Ray
Howell, the Princeton's magnate and
when the two meet a game will no
doubt result. AS the Oaks and 1ro-
quois play a preliminary to the
Frankin-Roosevelt game Sunday, the
Ashlands and Princetons will have
to seek another battlefield, unless
they want to play on the Copper
Works in the morning and that Is
improbable.
Manager Tippet will propose the
Brogger diamond as the best place
for the scenery. The game should
be a corker and will settle the long
rivalry which has existed since the
game played between these two mines
for $500 last year. The Prince
ton team won this game, but the
ASHES ore formidable this
season than last and victory seems
more likely. The Ashlands are the
only local team that has defeated
months. The Oaks, IrOquois and
Amboy f. C. are the local mines that
have been trimmed by the Mt. Lo-
retto on their last appearance on
Island soil.

LEAGUE
IS UNDER WAY
TettsnvilIe and StapIetons
Lead in Close Race.

Only two games have been played
in the championship series of Staten
Island. The games between the
Staten Island teams are not league
matches nor are they scheduled to
be for the championship of the is
land. But as the teams are sched-
uled to meet each other three times
all ways around the games have
taken on a championship aspect.
T~ottenville has figured in the only
two games thus far played in this
series. In one Stapleton defeated
the T~ottenyille crew A to 8, while the
T. A. C. turned the tables later on
the Stapleton boys by a 4 to 0 score.
The Alaskas have twice started to
play Shea's braves but in each case
rain stopped hostilities. The Alaskas
will appear on Tottenville sail Labor
Day and so the fans can lean back
in their chairs and await a nifty
battle,

pionship Battle.

Only three days remain before
Mike Maize, the lightweight cham

a monster sized crowd there will be
to cheer when the two clever nit
artists climb to the roped arena and
answer the gong shortly afterwards
by starting the milling. There will
be no case of nervousness in either
pugilist, as they have appeared be-
fore large crowds before, but the
throng of people will be there with
their feet on chairs, in the ~aisles, on
the Auditorium stage, and every
where except in the arena.
News from the camp Of Maize re-
ports that he is in top notch condi-
ton. The Staten Island boy is train
ing at Browns gymnasium in New
York with some of the best light
weights in the big city. His friends
who have seen him during his work
out express the greatest of conf
dence in their favorite. The reports
from Bedell's camp are also encour-
aging.
Both boys will weigh in at 6
O'Clock Monday night at the Rear
don-McNulty place at 1876 pounds.
Bedell has been down to his required
weight for several days and shows
his usual aggressiveness despite his
light form. Anyone wishing to see
the two boys weigh in Monday night
are allowed to appear at the Nc
Nulty-Reardon hotel at the appoint
ed time.

1911 AND 1S48.

It is somewhat more than sixty years since n political. social and financial commotion has arisen of such scope as that which now pre- vails throughout the world The pol itics of 1877 and 1896. unpleasant though they unquestionably were. will scarcely take rank as epoch making disturbances with those of the present year But the resemblances between 1911 and the famous year of 1S4S are numerous and close. That, too. was a year when, in almost every nation of the world, ancient political land marks seemed in course of oblitera- ton. New and radical ideas in pol itics had come suddenly to the front Continental Europe was in a state or revolution. A popular uprising drove Louis Philippe from the throne of France. The young generation of Prusians rose against King Frederick William; political concessions had to be made. even when the army was firing on the insurgents. Sicily re- volted. and King "Bomba" had to save himself by flight. Milan. Ma pies and Budapest rose against Aus trian rule. and popular dcmonstra- ton at Vienna overthrow Metternich and compelled the Emperor Ferdinand to abdicate In England, the Chartist movement was at its height, and huge open air meetings were held to sup pirt the then alarming political pro gram of universal suffrage, equal electoral districts. vote by ballot, an nual parliaments. no-property qual- ification for legislators and payment of members.

 Philadelphia is said to have request ed its subscribers not to say Please to the operators, and enjoined the operators not to say Please to the subscribers. The use of this polite
 flourish in that particular telephone district involved 900.000 repetitions Of the word, causing a loss of over five days every year of the time Of both employees and the public.
 But the Philadelphia case makes only a fragment of the story. The Please" is being dropped from con- siderable part of our social and Dusi- ness life, and with far less excuse Nor does the gracious Thank you.
