MORRISTOWN WINS
FIRST BALL GAME
Saturday Association Opens
Season With a Victory.

Though victim of hard luck at
its first game of the season the
Saturday association finished the con-
test winner and incidentally intro
duced Arthur Stelce to the local fans
in a new role, that of a pitcher. The
locals had the ST. Benedicts, Of New
ark, as contenders and trimmed them
seven to three. At practice time
Captain Doyle counted up the players
on hand and found but seven. Tom
| Ryan, the New Yorker who was to
have pitched, thought there would be
no game because it was raining in
New York and did not come out in
consequence. Two other players re-
ported sick SO that Doyle had to do
some skirmishing around in the crowd
to get a team. He finally located
Conway and placed him in left field
where the lad showed up we'll. For
second base Doyle secured Frank
Swaney, who is a bookkeeper at the
local office of Swift & company. This
young man, too, proved capable sub
stitute.
But it was the pitching selection
that called for cogitation. Frank
Millen used to pitch some SO he was
prevailed upon to try his arm out.
But the Newarkers took kindly to
his offerings, scoring three runs on a
single and double, a base on balls
and an error, after one was down.
Captain Mike called a halt and
beckoned for Stelce to come in from
center field Thinking that there
was to be a change in the infield
Stelce trotted in only to be handed
fhn 20 ~ f<.1J -. -
He did so to the great delight OF
the fans, holding the Newarkers run
less the rest of the game and allow
Ing only two hits. He had control
and he had speed as well as ssome-
thing on the ball" So well pleased
was Doyle and his co-laborers, West
and Maloney, that Stelce will be
nominated to pitch one of the games
on Memorial day. He made nifty
running catch of Cuttings wallop to
right center in the first inning.
Stelce was there with the bat, too,
for as lead off man for Morristown
he poled out two-bagger, voelker
suffering slip on the wet turf
while trying for the ball. Stelce
counted on Maloney's single, Tebe's
error helping the latter along to
third. He, too, counted when DOYLE
beat out bunt. Three more tallies
were made in the second inning.
Conway started it off with a single
and was sacrificed to second by Col
Inns. Millen drew pass. Stelce
peeled off single. scoring Conway
Millen romped home when Dalton let
Scanlon's return of the ball get
away and Stelce counted on Maloney'
single
West singled in the fifth after
Doyle was thrown out by Dalton. He
scored on Cuttings error, Horgan
getting life and going to second
on the misplay, scoring later when
Swaney planted a Texas Lacquer in
right.
Horgan, who is local hotel clerk,
showed up well at first base and
will probably continue at that STA
ton for teh Saturday team.
