Peep out as they kneel in prayer.

Six Hits Hastings Team Collects Nine Safeties,

The tie between the Perth Amboy
n Evergreen teams has been brok-
en- with the largest slice of h VIC
tory going to the local crow. Yester-
days results, Amboy 6, Evergreen 2.
The game staged yesterday on the
Copper Works field between these
two combinations was one of the
slowest struggles ever witnessed by
the locals. The game was a long
drawn out affair, which was chiefly
caused by the slow twirling of Levy.
Still the monotony of q long walt was
annuled a tribe by the several good
plays mixed in the struggle.
Mike 500 was in the box for the
locals and was effective. Possibly the
s'hard knock received in Saturdays
horn-locking made Mike stick them
across the corner of the rubber with
more force and better breaks than
usual. Anyway he secured nine
strikeouts.
Rasmussen. who started the game
for the visitors on the mound, was
hoisted in the second in favor of
Levy. Levy made but three of our
clouters break their backs.
One of the biggest features Of the
fracas was the cleanup clout by
Bader in the final inning. 1t happen
ed something like this:N Eats" Coley
smashed a single to right field. Bader
selected his wagon tongue, which
someone once stole thinking 1t would
make a good telegraph pole, and
leaned on the first ball tossed up for
a homer between center and right
field.
The first score in the second was
started when Regain was clipped by
Levy, later pilfering second. Coley
pushes "Blackie" along when he hied
out to right. Bader Is ais winged by
Levy and takes second on the next
pitched pail. Looser dumps one to
first, who fips it 10 Volt to get Regain
but was unsuccessful n then Volt
filings it to second when he spots Loos-
err taking that sack but Peterson NUTS
the pill allowing both Bader and MIX
ey to come across the rubber.
Another tally was scored in the fifth
inning when 500 steps into n for q
three cushion clout between center
and left gardens. Egan then m

he dropped q a n between nrst
and second, scoring o Regain Wits
