KEASBEY F. c.
Joe MuIens' Pets Ready To
Take On ChalIengers Sunday

The letter of Erich Schuster,
manager of the Keasbey Field Club
published in these columns on Tues
day with reference to booking a game
with Joe Mullins combination has
borne fruit. Arrangements for the
proposed match have been completed
and the game will be staged on the
Raritan Copper Works diamond this
Sunday afternoon.
The keasbeyites for the last sew
eral years have been cleaning up
everything in sight. 1t was in the
year of 1917 hat the suburbanites
declared themselves THE CHAMPS
and well proved their assertion by de-
feating Amboy's best two out of three
games.
The meeting of these two clubs will
certainly create some excitement as
both organizations lave been diamond
rivals for the past several years.
The outfit from out the line" will
certainly be of worthy material for
the Amboy crew to buck against and
in~cidently might give the local crew

been performing in the former South

playing in that concern is certainly
well able to take care of himself on
local skinned fields.

But Joe isn't worried any for he
has been travelling about the town
with q well satisfied smile on his
countenance, which promises ill for
the visitors. Joe is only happy when
he has his team in working condi-
ton and from the length and broad
ness of the smile the team must be
working without friction. He has been
oiling up several parts of the maehin-
cry and expects by the time the con-
test is rung up Sunday that not a
Speck of rust will be seen.
Schuster was asking Joe if he had
cold feet. Now we wonder if Mullin
has got cold feet. Just think it over
Schuster and decide among yourself
whether or not he has the frigid ex-

the scrap seemed to, go "gafooey,"
the jinx being much in evidence. Such
a thing is liable to happen even "in

ANOTHER DOUBLE HEADER
FOR SAINT JRS. THIS WEEK

The ST. Anthony Juniors of this
city, who last Sunday met defeat at
the hands of the Boy Scouts OF South
Amboy, will endeavor to resume their
winning streak when they match
ability with the strong Piscataway
Fire Engine Company team at Piss
Getaway on Saturday afternoon. This
team has put up some great games
against the strongest teams in his
section. The Saints will leave Perth
Amboy about 1880 from the corner
of Mcclellan and Smith streets.
On Sunday afternoon the Saints
will travel to Keasbey where they
will endeavor to take A~nthony'5
Rough Necks into camp. Anthony
boasts of a rather strong combination
of ball-tossers and claims that is
producing a second Mike Soc IN LICK,
his star southpaw. This game may
turn out to be a battle of southpaws
for Young may draw the pitching
assignment for the Saints.
Manager Doyle has arranged a
series of games between his team and
Manager Bagger's Pioneers of the
Dublin section of the city. Both of
these teams have quite a record Of
wins, and should play to good-sized
crowds judging from the following
thai both teams claim. The first
game of the series will be played on
August 80 on the r. G. ". diamond.
