Battles, Issues Challenge
Weighs About 1873 Lbs.
SAME HEIGHT AS MAIZE

Bert Papp, n OF Newark's crack
.lightweights, Is after the scalp of
Mike Maize, the lightweight pride
and champion of Staten Island.
Papp has requested the sporting
editor to issue a challenge to all the
lightweigths In the state but he is
especially anxious to meet Maize.
Papp stated that he averages from
133 to 1875 pounds and has fought
over 100 battles, all of which were
victories for him with the exception
OF two. In both cases In which ne
lost, he claims he was much out
weighed. Patsy Lanz, of New York,
Is Papp's manager.
Eddie Kelley of Harlem, and Papp
have been carded to meet In the
main ten round go at the Olympic
for Thursday night and from this
n can judge Papp's calibre.
Matchmaker McNulty has been re-
quested to make the match and 1t Ia
probable. II Maize is willing, that the
bout will be staged in about two
weeks. Papp is about the same
height as Maize.

PHI ADELPHA ATHLETICS, 1911 CHAMPIONS OF WORLD
BASEBALL, AFTER SERVICES OF 7. A. c. TWlR[ER
President Locke and Artie Romer
Hold Confab al Hotel McApin To-
day. -0ffer from Yankees Too.
HAS HAD LEAGUE EXPERIENCE

The New York Yankees tried for
Romer last season but their offer
was not high enough. The Yankees
are still after the %southpaw but the
Athletics are also on HIS trail.
Staten Island and. especially Tot
tenville fandem are hoping that
Athletics as they are confident that
he can make good and they are de-
sirous OF having a representative IL
Of the major league circles.
Romer is a southpaw of no near
calibre. He has had several seasons
of league experience and only gave
up his league career to take up his
position as a policeman. He IA a
member of the slab artist depart
ment Of Montreal. then In the East
ern League. He played a season
with the Holyoke nine In the Con-
necticut League and also twirled for
the Wilkes-Barre, Pa, aggregation
In some Pennsylvania league.
That he is entirely out OF the
class Of the teams and players In
these findings Is evident. Last ca
son in the few games which he
twirled against aggregations In these
parts, he displayed enough form on
the mound to satisfy all interested
that he was too fast company" for
anything hereabouts. He worked on
the mound for the fast Suburbas, OF
Brooklyn, and was a hero OF many
battles for that nine. He procured
distinction when he twiried a 81
victory against the Lincoln Giants
for the Suburbas. This vas the first
and one OF the very few defeats reg
istered against the Lincoins last
year. He is a very clever twirler as
we'll as one with a mighty wing. He
has speed to burn and an assortment
of twists and benders. He will no
doubt make good in the leagues if
he decides to steer his fortunes with
the leaguers, something which Is the
sole ambition Of any and every base
ball player who has any ability in the
snort at all.

Havs Not Yet Decided Whsth.
er to Play Against Club
Teams Hereabouts.
THURSDAYS WAS LAST

With the staging OF the last
Y. M. H. A. game which was played
in the Auditorium Thursday night,
the league schedule of the local
Y. M. II. A. was completed. No
more will the local tossers perform
in Y. M. H. A. league games this
season. They are through and do
not regret the fact for the season
in the league was q rather discourag-
ing one, due to the fault OF no one
in particular.
Whether or not the Y. M. II. A.
team will play club basketball Is a
problem which Manager Feldman is
not yet ready to answer. However,
it Is very probable that the Y. M.
H. A. boys will come back for a few
more games at least. The team has
Schwartz. Feldman, Shumsky. Kap-
1owitz and Nathan and Leo Cold
berger in their midst with Sarokin
and Doris on the walt too and should
be able to class with many of the
club teams in this vicinity.
Morris Miller, who once made
eleven baskets in one game on the
Auditorium court one night this
season, will probably not be seen in
the Y. M. H. A. lineup in their next
game, II there will be any. Miller
who plays the forward position when
he plays at all, states that he will
leave for Lakewood Friday for his
health, However, DR.. Feldman
stated yesterday that he did not be-
lieve Miller's leaving would have
much to do with keeping the Y. N.
H. A. from continuing to play.

To be offered a berth with a
league team is the good fortune OF
few baseball players OF the many
thousand candidates who engage In
this sport, which Is the most popular
of all branches of sport in the world.
But to be urged to become a member
of a league team which was two
seasons ago the champions OF the
world is the fortune OF SO few that
we must term them of the best In
baseballdom. And in this class falls
the lot Of one Arthur Romer, of Tot
tenYille.
Tall and slim such as Ia the won
derful RUDE Vanguard, Romer has
the build and the appearance OF an
athlete.
William Locke, president OF the
American League Team. Of Phila-
delphia, and Romer have arranged
to have a conference in Hotel Nc
Alpin In New York this afternoon
and II the Showdown" magnate
sends across q big enough offer to
satisfy the crack portside finger, 1t
will be "Romer OF the Philadelphia
Athletics. That all the big league
squads r after the Tottenvllle
pride is evident for Tom O'Hara, one
OF the Yankees scouts. has COM
municated with Romer relative to
signing him up for a berth on the
slab with Frank Chances new make
up of New Workers.
Romer is at present content with
his position which Is that OF a police
man. During the baseball months,
he plays with the Surburbas. some
times with the T. A. c. and now and
then with the police nine. according
to the days he Is of duty. He states
that II any Of the league teams de-
sire his services they will have to
sign a contract with him for a high
price so as to warrant a change from
his present station in life. He loves
baseball and is eager to join the big
leaguers but does not expect to sac
rifice a good position for h sport.

GOOD SKATING
is ENJOYED ON
RARITAN LAKE
Ice Promises to Keep for
Whole Week - Hundreds
on Laks Sunday.
HOCKEY GAME is STAGED

Skating on Raritan Lake was en-
Joyed yesterday and all day Sunday
by hundreds OF lovers of this outdoor
winter sport. Many will probably
take a trip to the lake some time
this week as the ice promises to keep
for several mor days at least. The
continuance OF cold weather has
given much pleasure to the many
crowds who have entertained a long
ing for the hours of skating sport
which were enjoyed several years
ago. Because of the changeable
weather this year, there have been
few opportunities for the skaters and
all are anxious that the entire week
remain suitable to skating as were
yesterday and Sunday.
The ice was strong enough for a
hockey game Sunday and several
playing under the name of the River
sides defeated a crew who termed
themselves the Spartans. Bunk
Allen, Henry Roster. and John Vecsi
were in the Riverside ranks while
Frank Mccormick and Frank Ander-
son were two of the Spartan players.
The Riverside hockey team is anxi-
Gus to receive challenges as the play
ers desire to perform on the ice be-
fore the last opportunity melts away.
While schoolboys and schoolgirls
occupy the lake during the afternoon.
the crowds usually enjoy skating at
about 7 o'clock at night.

FOR BIG GAME

After much dickering Manager
J. j. Dolan, OF the Seasides. and
Manager D. T. Wilentz, Of the River
sides, have agreed to stack their re-
spective forces on the Eltingville
court in Staten Island, Wednesday
night, February 26. This is a special
night, since the Seasides play home
games on Saturday nights. This
Wednesday night attraction was
carded by Manager Dolan because
there is much rivalry between the
city champions and the Seaside agS
gregation.
The Islanders we're defeated by
the locals on the Auditorium court.
But they believe that the next battle
will result in a victory for them.
They are going at top notch speed
at present as is indicated by the ex-
hibition against the Bayonne Sepa-
rates Saturday night. The River
sides, with Wand at the pivot, seem
to be due for a string Of wins. and
as the Seaside game is not far off,
there Is every likelihood that both
teams will be at their best when they
clash.
