WILL SCRIBE
Be IMPEACHED?
Press Clubs Nine UNDERMINE
ed by Selfish Influence.

All is not we'll under the surface
of things. The baseball nine repre-
senting the well organized, and we
can say celebrated, Press Club, of
this city, is undergoing decay. Such
a calamity, heaped upon the sport
ing fraternity in a heap, SO to
speak, will be brought to pass by
the indescretion and indifference of
the "men higher up" who should
be Beckerized, We ask that they be
impeached. The Press Club has a
good, strong nine-the material IS
there-but we lack the - and go
which characterizes every good
team. Why? Because, the egostic-
al eulogy written by u erstwhile
manager, after Saturdays game in
New Brunswick, has caused a dis
ruption in the rank and file of the
common peepul.
1t is not very often that a scrib-
bier takes it upon himself to write
an sc. e., and, when such occurs,
it is met with a storm Of protest
from the lowly brethren. That Is
the position taken by the members
of the Press Club nine, who worked
hard in Saturdays game, and re-
ceived no particle of credit. In
stead. valuable CD space was COB
bled by the manager, who made
three hits and no errors" to be-
rate others and slap himself heart
lily on the back, as he smiled joyful
ly in the looking glass. The War
rem House-Press Club game may be
played Saturday, but. il so, 1t will
be a miracle, unless impeachment
proceedings result In the overthrow
of the king. and the establishment
of a government of the people, Ter
the people, and by the people.

Fish Tales.

Fluke are biting at the Keansburg
pier and it would not be surprising
if a few small blackfish were caught
there before the month of August
passed. Several powerboats were
anchored just below Keansburg
Tuesday, but the occupants didn't
get any weakfish.
Staten Island grabbing is bringing
out the men, m and children
from New York. At South Beach
there is hardly enough boats to meet
the demand and every boat that
comes In has several hundred Of the
finest of bluecraw crabs.
With clear weather promised for
Sunday there should be some more
good sea bass fishing at the outside
fishing banks. Every day so far this
week big catches have been made,
and when the boats land at the Bat
terry there Is always a crowd of men
waiting to buy anything in the fish
line that is for sale. These people
buy the fish for their own table be-
it is absolutely fresh.
The writer has been In touch with
people along the entire Jersey coast
and 1t looks as though we will hear
from the weakfish within a week.
The surf fishermen are catching
them at Seaside Park and Point
Pleasant and late Tuesday afternoon
quite a few were taken just below
Asbury Park.

MORE DOPE ON
COMING GAME
Probable Line Ups for Frank
Inst. Anthony Game.

No news comes from the camp of
the Franklins. How and what the
bunch managed by Happy" Apple
gate will do when they meet the
st. Anthonys can only be imagined.
The ~Franklins once had a press
agent in Arthur A.. Quinn, Jr., who
also was their scorer. 1t appears
now that Quinn has either given up
or lost both contracts. At any rate,
there has been no news direct from
the authorities in charge of the
Franklins for a couple of moons.
However. it would be a safe bet
to say that the Franklins will have
Apologize and Fritz as the battery;
"Sully" will probably play first
base Tom Eagen, Fullerton and
Smith will occupy the other part of
the infeld. Foster, Loeser and Re-
gan will be OF the job in the outer
garden.
The St. Anthonys may have a
change in their line up, although it
is not believed that any of the regu-
lars will be kept on the bench.
Right field is the only position which
is questionable and that is a pick
between DUNCAN, Ellie and Clear.
Hunt and Loeser may be switched
around from left to center and vice
versa. 1t was always the opinion
of the Saints coach that John
ny" Hunt. the brilliant little out
fielder of the Saints could play
the cener pasture better than the left
field. So, it would not be surpris-
ing to see Mickey" Loeser, the pinch
puncher of the State street boys, in
left field and Hunt In center.

LETTER FROM
ASHLAND CLUB

Ellis Martin, formerly manager of
the Ashland baseball nine, and now
initial sacker of Tippet's bunch, has
some comment to make on the Ash
land-Iroquois controversy. The epis-
tie reads as follows:
Sporting Editor NEWS
Seeing in the last edition of your
valuable paper of yesterday an arti-
Gle stating that the Iroquois called
the Ashlands bluff l wish to have
1t known that the Ashlands made no
bluff" that the Iroquois could call.
The rivalry which brought up the
present controversy between the
1roquois and Ashlands started May
80, when 1 was manager Of the Ash
lands. I arranged a game with the
Iroquois to be played on the Copper
Works diamond on May 80 after
noon for a side bet of $40. Three
days before the game Manager
Payne came to me and asked me if
could not stage the game in the
morning. / told him the game was
arranged for the afternoon and that
1t would be the afternoon or not at
all, because several of my players
could not appear in the morning.
Payne stated then that the diamond
was to be used by four local teams
In the elimination series. However,
on May 80 not one player was seen
on the diamond. / am aware Of the
fact that we had a shower on the
afternoon of May 80 and / am also
aware of the fact that Payne wished
to cancel the game in order to play
the Midtown Crescents. We have
been trying to arrange a game ever
since then, but Payne always had his
dates filed. Then Payne finally had
July % open and 30 did the Ash.
lands. But right here the Ashlands
were kept back
Our manager, Harold Tippet, was
out of town on his vacation and hat
left matters with William CARTS, oul
assistant manager, who also went OF
his vacation at this time, thereby
leaving us without a leader. No one
would shoulder the responsibility o
arranging the game with the 1ro
Quois. But at last, on Wednesday
July "a, Captain Seger and mysel
went scouting for Payne. We coul(
not find him. The next day WI
heard that the Iroquois were goins
to play the Sheridans, of South Am
boy, July 28. So we could not come
to arrangements for that date. Payne
then got wise and offered us Angus

lower of the game knows that the
Iroquois were defeated by the Mt.
Loretto bunch. Therefore I consider
the Mt. Loretto nine a better aggre-
cation. We arranged a game with
this Staten Island crew about three
months ago for August 4 and Mana
ger Tippet says that he will not can
eel that game.
1t is true that Tippet did arrange
a game with the Iroquois Monday
night, said game to be played Au-
gust 4 for $40, but after speaking to
several of the players Tuesday, dis
satisfaction was manifested over the
arrangements and several of the
bunch threatened to quit if the
Mt. Loretto game Vas cancelled. An
other reason our players take this
stand is because on some occasions
we asked Payne to cancel games in
order to play US and he refused,
Therefore our men wished to give
him a dose of his own medicine"
Tippet is not to be blamed for this
cancellation. Payne then offered us
August II. Seger, who was talking
to Payne over the telephone, was the
one to receive the date. He inform
ed Payne that he would see our
manager and then call Payne to let
him know If the game was good.
Payne took advantage of the fact
that Seger could not decide, since
he was not manager, and told him
that the game would have to be ar
ranged before the conversation owe
the phone was finished. After a lit
tie argument the speaking was fin
ished. The Ashlands have not got a
case of "cold feet" yer the Sheridan
game. When the Ashlands played
the Sheridans they were badly Grip
pied and also got a raw deal from
the umpire across the river. The
Ashlands are ready to play the Iro-
quois on the Copper Works diamond;
the date of course will have to be
made between the two managers.
While l believe August II is open, ]
am not certain that the date is salts
factory to Tippet. However, if Payne
wants the date let him show the ten
iron men and we'll be right there,
as We have our manager and whole
team with us again. 1t appears that
Payne always offers us dates when
he knows it is almost impossible for
Us to accept the dates.
Thanking you for the space in
your valuable paper, l remain,
Yours in sport,

GOOD GAMES
IN JR. LEAGUE

Two games are on the card for
the Junior League Sunday. The st.
Anthony Jrs. are booked to play the
Clovers on the Lumber Field dia-
mond, and the Peerless have been
staged to meet the Princetons on the
c. Pardee Works diamond. Both
games I expected to furnish sur
prises, although the chances that
the Princetons lose is very slim.
Judging from the, way the Clovers
are travelling, it appears that the
Saints will have to be right on
the job every minute of the battle
to defeat them. Last week in the
game with the P~rincetons, the top
notchers of the league, the CloVers
forged ahead in the first spasm, by
tallying five runs and playing so
brilliantly for a while that it APP
peared as if the league leaders would
suffer their first drubbing. But
with defeat staring them in the face,
Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-08-01

Howell's bunch of Tigers gradually
climbed up and in the final stanza,
won out against the Clovers. How
ever, it was some scare that was
thrown into the Tigers and it nearly
meant defeat. 1t must be remember
ed that the Clovers made a triple
play in the second inning of this
game. The St. Anthony Jrs. are a
confident bunch and they will no
doubt show some consistent playing
when they line up in this battle,
which will be the first they have
Waged in many
The Peerless have been going at a
slow pace this season, and with
Ritter, their star slab artist, in the
Iroquois' fold, there does not appear
much show for victory in their camp.
A defeat for the Saints will prob
ably decide the championship of the
league, as the Princetons are forg-
ing a head.

Lead in Billiard Tourna- ment Now Shared

The surprise of the billiard tour nament in progress as the Copper Queen pool hall occurred last night when Burns, the leader of the dog en entries in the tourney, was de feated by Sabin. Burns held a per centage of over 800 having lost only one game, but his defeat by Sabin last night made a tie between him and Harry Locke, both having lost two games The game between Sa- bin and Burns was one of the closest and most exciting of the whole tour nament and was witnessed by a large crowd of fans. The score was an apparent tie, each player making 106 points. but Burns is handicapped at 110, and he lacked four points of making it while Sabin made his han dicap Of 106.
 Sabin was evidently in fine fettle last night, for after trimming the champ he defeated Rice, one of the headiest players in the entry list, ordinarily Last night he succeeded in making only i6 of his handicap of 93, while Sabin scored his handi- cap of l06.
 In the third game of last nights play, Huddleston. a l25 man, de feated Gwynn, who made only i6 of his handicap number. so. The going was good last night, and as the golf CTS say, the greens were fine The high run record was broken last night by Burns with a record of 31 after Huddleston had equalled the record established by Locke early in the tournament, with 26
 Burns and Locke are tied for first place now. but Locke leads with grand average. These two players will play off the tie, and it looks as if one of them will get the first prize trophy There are three tied for second place so the finish of the tional.
