VS.. SAXON FIGHT
SURE TO ATTRACT CROWD

Did you hear of the bargain pas
time that Joe McNulty is Offering to-
night in the enticing program of
Silent Martin vs.. Johnny Saxon;
Young Owen Moran VS.. Johnny Sum-
mers; Phil Geret VS.. Young Smith,
and several other f~our-round bouts
for the preliminaries?
If the fight fans will take advan-
tage of this as would our opposite
sex whenever bargain is mentioned.
the Lotos Club will hold all the
sporting blood Of the city and many
neighboring towns.
The biggest affair of the evening
will be Silent Martin and Johnny
Saxon when they mingle for an
eight-round affair. Many are spec
ulating as to the mauling that is to
be handed out-one faction having
Saxon as its favorite, while the other
declares the mute Will be on top.
Whichever cops the glory 1t is agreed
that these two man mussers have
records that are diplomas from the
fighting college secured after diligent
study and knocks.
Joe believes 1t possible that the
winner of the Saxon and Martin bout
will have a whack at the crown of
AL Roberts. the much talked of and
idol of the fstic world these days,
within the next couple of weeks. It
will be recalled hat Johnny Saxon
was the only n who went the full
limit with Roberts and from the re-
ports of several spectators who wit
messed both the Saxon-Roberts- and
the Roberts-Weinert affairs, claim
that Saxon gave Roberts the best go.
In the special six-round circus
McNulty has obtained a good scrap
per from New York who is not well

Mullin has booked n of the biggest
games of the season for this coming
Sunday. The diamond affair is sched-
uled to be played on the Raritan Cop

Organs Rough Necks VS.. Perth
Amboy is what the bill heads read.
The Rough Necks lave a reputation
h a Is about a mile long. The mem
bers of this fast combination are all
khaki wearers who have soldiered in
the American Expeditionary Forces in
france. Organs Rough Necks are
q world famous organization with
championship honors resting lightly
on their manly shoulders. For three
successive years they have withstood
every kind of attack to dethrone them
of the championship. Beginning at
the Mexican Border in 1917, the team
was coached and shaped in by Harry
r. Meyers, who has spent q quarter
of a century in doing big things in
baseball and producing winners.
Again in ~Spartansburg, s. c., In 1918
this team was returned the champions
and in France in 1919 the champs
again repeated. The team has play
ed in Belgium and England and were
big favorites everywhere.
They have been called Heroes of
the Hindenburg Line" AT the Hinden-
burg Line two of the brave boys were
killed. four were wounded n two
cited for gallantry Under fire. two
others were gassed.

SOUTH AMBOY, Aug. 8.-The
Morgan A. c. of South Amboy who
lave been playing some mighty fine
meeting other teams. They have gone
defeat to their credit. The Morgans
desire a game this Sunday with either
the Pofsh Giants of South River or
the Perth Amboys. They would also
like to arrange a game in the near
future with the Catholic Club of this
city who now claim they are the
champions of the city On the strength
of defeating the Y. M. G. A. One of
the first games played by the Morgans
was against the Catholic Club which
resulted in an overwhelming victory
for the first mentioned team.
The Morgans are unfortunate not
to have a home diamond SO through
necessity all their anne must be
travelling games. They are especially
anxious to meet the Perth Amboy's
and they feel that an opportunity
should be given them. All the old
timers of the city wear the uniform of
the Morgan A. G. and with just
enough young blood to instill pep"
into the game. Among the men play
ing with the local team will be found
Manager Hartman, Pierson, Heating,
Buckelew, Spatford, Maxfelde Molly,
Magee and Let's. The names of every
one Of these men are familiar to the
followers of baseball and speak for
the makeup of the team.

Bouts Prove
Success

OIL bVCEtUA
SOUTH AMBOY, Aug. S.-The box
ing carnival at st. Mary's last evening
was all hat the management had
promised an devon exceeded the fond
est expectation of the local fans. At
the last moment some of the bouts
could not be arranged owing to some
of the men falling down, but Fortunate
ly just as good if not better bouts were
arranged. The approval of those pres
ent was shown by tremendous ap-
plause at the end of each round.
Young Mills and Young Colby mixed
things up in general in the first bout
of the night. This was a good draw.
The second bout was between Dwyer
and McFadden. The general opinion
was a close draw but a number of fans
offered the opinion that Dwyer had a
slight shade over his opponent. One
of the best attractions of the night was
the Diamond Twins from Staten
Island. Two colored youngsters who
put up a good exhibition and added a
good deal of funny work" At the
conclusion of their bouts they rendered
several songs.
The semi-fnal was between Kid
Potty of Perth Amboy and Young Joe
Cans of Newark. The hand that Potty
received as he stepped into the ring
speaks well o this popular young
fighter. This was the fastest bout of
the evening and the pair were well
matched. Potty offered his services to
the carnival and the management
wishes to publicly thank him.
The next number of the program
and the one with the most local in
terest was a bout between Joe Press
and Tom Render, both of this city.
From the first Render was outclassed
by hi $ opponent and early in the first
round he was on his knees and took
the count of sever At the end of the
round he was fioored once more and
was saved by the bell. He was unable
to continue, however. These local boys
showed the right spirit when APP
preached by the men in charge of the
exhibition and showing will do much
to further local interest in this line
OF sport.
The best bout of the evening was
the final between Micky belmont and
Young Leo. From the start the bout
was fast and full of interest. In the
third round Young Leo had his eye
closed and in the next round he mar
rowly missed the "haymaker." At the
end of this round he was led to his cor
ner. He came back strong, however,
In the fifth and the sixth, both boys
ending about on equal terms.
