| GIL BASEBALL
SEASON LONGER
Games Last Year Ended Nov.
5--This Year Oct 10.

If one should compare the length
of the baseball a just closed
and the one of 1911, he would find
that this years play in the national
pastime was several weeks shorter
than last season. Along with the
deciding of the city championship
October 10, the curtain was rung
down upon baseball activities In this
burg for the season. Whereas last
year the city league did not end until
November S, when the Marions best
ed the Saint Anthonys by a 3 to 4
score in nine innings of warm play
ing despite the cold weather.
Were it not for the fact that there
was such a thing as a league in 1911
the season would have been ended
much earlier than November 3. But
as the Amboys, the Marions and the
Saint Anthonys ran such a close rae
last year the championship could not
be decided until November 5.

MAR|0NS
MEET he
NEPTUNES
South Amboy Has
Nc Creery and
Red Durham.

When the Marjons face the Nep-
tune on the Knights of Pythias court
court in South Amboy tonight, they
will not be forced to oppose the
clever lineup which defeated the
South River aggregation for the Nep-
tunes last Tuesday. However, they
will have oppose the same guards
that held the Iroquois forwards To
but two field goals and the rest OF
the aggregation will be comprised
of McCreery and Manhattan, for
wards, and Durham at center.
"Corky" and McCreery will probably
work together in fine style. The
South Amboy fans will be right on
tap to cheer their favorites on.
The Marions held their final prac-
tice last night and reported in good
trim. The locals will have Mulligan
at the throttle with Gray and Kerwln
to play forwards and Holzheimer and
Nickenig to play guards.
The MariOns will probably take
a crew of supporters over from this
burg.

BILL REYNOLDS
IN RIVERSIDE
LINEUP NOW
Is Expected to Occupy Pivot
Against Corona Five
Saturday Night.

In the next game of the season in
which the Riverside basketball quin-
tet is a factor Bill Reynolds, the
pivot leader, will be at the throttle
to engineer his squads plays. 1t
will be Bills first appearance in war
toys for several weeks, having been
kept from the sport owing to an in
jured foot.
The next battle of the Riversides
will be Saturday night, when they
oppose the speedy Coronas on the
Auditorium court. Bill will have to
be at his best to cope with the speedy
and clever inter of the visitors, who
dropped five field goals through the
net last season when he opposed
Reynolds, while Bill could not man
age to score a point on field goals.
Reynolds started this season off
much better than he ended in last
years. In the few games that he
has already figured, he showed class
at every stage. His teammates hope
that he keeps up his stride as the
"Rivies" are a perfect machine when
Reynolds is right and is always on
the go. Random will no doubt well
come the lanky Riverside coach back
into the game when he appears on
the Auditorium court Saturday
night.
Bill stated this morning that his
foot was not back into its normal
condition but that he wanted to play
Saturday night whether his limb
was cured or not.

HAVE DROPPED
CITY CHAMPIONSHIPS
TWICE IN PLAY OFFS

placed, Billy Maloney led a fine crew
of warriors out ON the warpaths
ready to gobble everything In sight.
These warriors showed their real
class for a while and soon the Jinx
entered upon the scene every time
the State street boys tried to meet
victory and entice the valued prize
into their camp. DUNCAN would
pitch four hit games and someone
would slip up at the critical stage
and a game would be lost. Kinsula's
finger was broken and a game was
lost to the Alaskas. A lemon was
handed the Saints in Lynch n a
tussle was awarded to the T. A. G.
All such occurrences characterized
the work of the Saints for the ma
jority of the season.
However, no matter how discour-
aged they felt they were always pre-
pared to meet the Franklins, their
greatest rivals. After breaking even
in two games with Apples crew the
St. Anthonys had the decisive game
5 to / until the final inning. Vic
tory and the city championship could
not seem to shun them this m
The rooters of the State street boys
were counting up their sheckels
which they had bet on the issue and
were figuring out how to spend it
while the Franklin crew Of support
ers were cheering their favorites on
although they felt, at least most OF
them, that they hadn't a ghost OF a
chance. Everyone knows what hap
pened in that final stanza. For the
benefit of the Saints we will not re-
late the details. 1t ended in a tie,
s to s, and in the play-off they were
walloped 6 to /. Now, If that isn't
hard luck that term should be taken
out of the vocabulary of every fan In
the country.
The Saints are wondering II 1t will
be possible for them to play another
year for the city championship and
lose In an extra game. In 1911 after
the Marions and the State street
crew defeated the Amboys, an extra
game in the league had to be played
between the Saints and Marions and
the latter won. This year the Saints
and Franklins played an extra game
for the city championship and the
latter won. It's all over now; wen
put the book away, for we're read
t at least a dozen times.

Just at this time Of the year when
the last thoughts of baseball are
leaving US, a word for the conquered
often times soothes the feelings 80
that the membranes of the bat
ties of the past season are left In OBJ
livion and nothing but hope for the
baseball year to come reigns in the
minds and thoughts of the support
who the fates have dealt with most
cruelty. In this burg one squad of
balltossers have had as a regular
supporter and follower n Mr.. Jinx.
You no doubt know now which ag-
gregation is my theme. For those
who have just moved into this city
and have not followed up the nation
al pastime here, we will say that the
team referred to is the Saint An
thongs.
For two successive seasons the
State street boys have been second
best in city championship honors.
These ambitious athletes could not
seem to cop the bacon in the last few
stages of the season both In 1911
and in 1912 and as a result the most
coveted prize of each season of the
last two have fallen away from the
camp of the Saints after being in
striking distance until the very last
moment of each baseball year.
Talk about your hard luck-why
the Saint Anthonys after jumping
from Junior ranks into senior circles
last year walloped everything In
their new company and when the
season was nearing It's end they were
at the top. Yes, right at the top
notch Of the ladder. But the Marions
had a hold on the same notch and
the State street boys had to fight it
out with Mullen's rew of tossers.
Remembering the defeat handed
them on n occasion, the Marions
stacked their forces with q ringer
on the slab In the form of one
Kohler, 4 large. husky athlete. This
mound performer proved a tower Of
strength and was invincible in every
inning but one, in which Maloney's
bunch tailed four counters. How
ever, the Marions just managed to
get FIVE runs and the wee Saint An
thongs lost a city championship in
1911 by n run.
They we're discouraged for a while
but when the 1912 scenery was

Another Usurper of Affections.


1t Is not necessary to write any
descriptive or introductory notes to
make known the identity of the sub
juct of this article. Suffice to say
that he Is the Fighting Waiter" a
popular idol of the boxing world and
known as the MAN with the Four
Inch Punch"
Many people are laboring under
the impression and belief that Joe's
cl%everness and science exists only in
the fighting ring, and how foolish 1t
appears to those who have justified
him by fathoming the real depths
of his remarkable personality, to
hear the ignorant and misguided
ones expess their ideas regarding non
evident delinquencies of a master OF
many things. Let me suggest that
those who are fair minded and deep
thinking approach him on the sub
ject Of love and gallantry in order
to allow him an opportunity to prove
his sentimental education, and
doubt very much hat anyone, expe-
rienced or otherwise, will best him
in the argument.
Joe has a very peculiar way for
making acquaintances, that of MOTTO
ing a very pretty face in a restau-
rant or elsewhere, neglecting the
opportunity for an eye filtration and
sparing the other party the embar-
rassment of such by walking outside,
writing a note, delivering same by
means of a messenger In the form OF
a newboy, for which service he pays
quite literally. This original sys-
TEN avoids the pecuniary difficulties
of a direct rundown or snub and also
mis-directs the attention Of the in
Va ding populus. JOe's latest case
Perth Amboy evening news., 1912-10-29
BY MISTER SPOD|N|S

was a young and pretty lady from
South Jersey who, although needing
not his peculiar advances at the
time has, after a formal and oppor-
tune introduction become quite
smitten on "Our Hero" and declares
that she would be pleased to have
him call on her. This only goes to
prove that his system is a good one,
even that viltory doe not instantly
respond to his call, it will certainly
come to hand in due time affording
happiness which Is overwhelming to
the first slight disappointment.
Here is q transcript of the letter
delivered in said case:
Dear Fair One:
II am a Boxer. / have seer and
admired your face. 1t Is not my
habit to like every face that l see,
there Is nothing l would noa do for
the owner. II you will meet me at
Proctor's theatre Monday night at
1890 p. m. l will meet you and show
you a good time you like if it sosts
my whole bank roll.
Don't forget and believe me,
"Your faithful.
JOE"
The Interpretation Of Joe's letter
can be easily juggled by some who
might incline to narroW-minded
views, but let me assure you that,
knowing the adventurer as | do.
there is not the slightest semblance
of suggestiveness contained therein
as I believe that my subject Is a
typical type of morality and no terms
rould be too endearing to use in his
case.

Captain Peter Toolin, of the Saint
Anthony baseball crew, stated last
night that his favorites would again
be on the baseball map next season
despite many rumors to the con-
trary. Pete believes that his team
mates have more fighting blood than
to quit just because they have lost
two city championships in success
sion.
Toolln thinks his squad will again
be in the race for city honors next

this time. According to the opinions
of several of the Saint nine, the team
is pleased with the way the squad is
