SHUT OUT
R|CHCREEKS, ITO
Harry, chunk" Apologize, Holds Visiting Team to One Scratch
Hit, Tanning Ten "PPd'' Stlnson and Pop" Rodda Star
at Bat With Three Hits Apiece -AmbOyS Annex Twelve Hits
Off HeschIer.

Before one of the largest crowds
ever seen on the local diamond Joe
Mullen's Perth Amboys, lead by the
old Reliable" Harry Apologize, shut
out the crack Richcreeks, of West
Bergen, who have been holding the
attention of the semi-pro world, by
q score of ITO.
Harry A~pplegate yesterday pitch
ed one of the greatest games of his
career, allowing but one hit, a
scratch in the fourth inning, a bunt
down the third base line, which was
slowly ielded. Chunk struck out
the first four men to face him, and
secured ten s. O.'s during the pas
time. He walked but one. The Rich
creek team had very few men on the
bases and their chances of scoring
before the pitching of Apologize and
the playing Of the Amboy team were
few and far between.
On the other hand H~erschler was
touched for twelve hits, one of which
was q long double. He had a few
of the Amhoy batters foiled by his
southpaw slants, but at other times
his delivery was easy to solve. He
struck out nine and walked three.
Once the men were on the bases they
always scored more than one run.
Inc Annoy players started on
strong in the very first inning, secur-
ing three runs, and followed this
lead by putting two more over in the
fourth. In the seventh and eighth
three men crossed the plate in each
inning.
Maloney, formerly first sacker for
the st. Anthonys, was on first base
in place Of Coley, who was unable to
be on hand. Maloney handled the
sack in a first class manner, and also
showed up we'll at the bat, securing
one hit, a beautiful bunt, which
scored Rodda in the fourth.
The real prizes in the line of bat
ting go to "Pud' Stinson, the star
shortstop of the Amboy team, who
secured three opportune hits, one a
long double, and Pop" Rodda, who
also secured three hits, all on occa-
sions when there were several men
on the, sacks. Pop" Is surely fight
ing hard to show the fans that he is
not O. "~has-been," and will surely be
with us next year. If he keeps up
hitting the pill in the future as he
has been he will be leading the Am
boy batters.
Every one of the Amboy batters
with the exception of Bader, the
%clouter of the Amboy nine, found
Herschler for at least one bingle.
Harry Applegate, besides pitching q
great game, secured one hit n
Perth Amboy evening news., 1919-09-29

scored a run-enough to beat his OPP
ponents.
Regain seemed to be out of luck in
yesterdays game, being hit on the
head by the pitcher on his first APP
pearance at the plate, and also being
hit several times by throws while go
ing around the bases, but this did
not affect his speed in any way, for
he beat out a bunt and scored three
run throughout the game. He also
played a good game in the field.
Romer on his second appearance
in the Amboy lineup showed up very
well, securing one hit, walking once,
and being hit by the pitcher once
He also secured two u n and played
a great game in the field.
On the whole Amboy played ms
of the greatest games Of the season,
both in the field and at bat, and the
defeat which the Richcreek team was
handed was not due to their inabil-
ity, but due to the greatness of the
Amboy teams playing.
There was an unusually large and
a~ppreciative crowd on hand, among
whom were the usual chief yellers,
such as "Diede," "2,75'' and several
others. Many of the local fans have
just realized what they have been
missing by not coming to the local
games.

The entertainment committee of
the Raritan Yacht Club wishes to

the entertainment of the clubs mem
bers nevertheless all friends of the

should prove to be the seasons best
and biggest smoker. No seats In the

who are unfortunate enough to be
late may be compelled to content
themselves with standing room.
All the arrangements have been
completed and everyone concerned IS
looking forward to this big stag" af-
fair with the keenest sort of expec-
tation. The committee a promised
an excellent program of sixteen acts
comprising singing, dancing, boxing,
comedy and novelty numbers and in

SAINT JUNIORS
WIN ANOTHER
Shut Out Catholic F. g. GO in
Game Played Here Yesterday

In the preliminary to the Amboy-
Richereek game yesterday afternoon
the st. Anthony Juniors handed an
other defeat to the strong Catholic f.
@. of the Dublic section of the city,
and incidentally added another shut
out to their steadily increasing list.
The final score was 60.
Art Young, the star southpaw of
the Saints, had the heavy hitters of
the Catholic Club at his mercy as he
allowed but three hits which were
widely scattered. He secured ten
strikeouts and walked two. Young
has been pitching a great brand of
baseball throughout the season, and
his ability instead of decreasing to-
ward the end of the season, as is the
case with many young beavers, is In
c~reasing, and he Is a hard worker.
Chismar pitching for the. Catholics
was touched for ten healthy swats,
struck out five and walked three.
His delivery was easy for the Saint
batters to solve.
The Saints started their scoring in
the first inning, pushing over one run
II this inning, following with one in
the second, three In the sixth and
one in the eighth.
Hull, Brownmiller and Wallace
featured at the bat for the Saints.
each securing two hits, n or HullS
going for a double.
Hull and Wallace playing in the
field were a feature of the pastime,
both accepting many difficult chances
without a miscue, and Wallace made
a feature catch of q fly behind first,
and threw to Hull, completing a fast
double play.
Simon played short in place OF
Bruwnmiller in the latter part of the
game and secured several difficult
chances, which he handled in a good
fashion. He will be a big asset to
the Saints in future games, both at
the bat and in the field.
The Catholic team got one man to
third during the whole game, this
being in the last of the eighth with
two out, and Young completed the
inning by striking out the third man
and thereby smothering the Catholics
only chance of scoring.
M. Chfsmar, leftielder for the
Catholics, secured W. OF his teams
three hits.

night boxing program in Palace Hall.
the third and deciding match be-
tween Kid Potty, the popular feath-
erweight of this city, n Willie
Curry, former featherweight cham
pion of Staten Island
In the first bout between these two
Curry outpointed his man, the con-
test going the full twenty-four min
utes. The next time they met Potty
won the decision as the result of a
marked improvement shown in his
fighting.
Potty has not fought much since
then although he kayoed Joe For
gione at the Lotos Club and later
lost on points to Joe in Newark.
Curry has been seen in action against
Willie Murphy, the classy Staten Is
la@der who relieved Curry of the
featherweight crown.
There is considerable interest be-
Ing manifested over the outcome of
this fight and Perth Amboy and
Staten Island are expected to be well
represented tomorrow night. The
fact thai neither man has been
to land the sleep-maker in their two
bouts to date has resulted in wagers
being made that tomorrow nights
scrap will go the time limit.
Potty supporters, however, point
to the way he handed Forgione in
their fight here and are positive that
he can duplicate this feat with Curry.
This will be the last time these two
featherweights meet and the winner
of this bout will be recognized as the
better man of the two.
Joe Forgione is still after Potty
for another bout and If Potty wins
tomorrow nights fight the Newarker
will most likely be seen opposing the
local feather shortly.
Young Carroll In Semi-F1nal
In the six-round semi-final Young
Johnny Carroll, of Chrome. and
Young Mac, of Staten Island, will be
the principals. Carroll is a big fav-
orite with the fight fans from Roose-

That Canadian manufactures were
markedly stimulated in important lines
byswar demands, every one knows. Ship
building became a much more important
industry in the latter part of the war thar
ever before; the output of coal in 1918 was
the greatest in history. But 1t remained
for Sir Robert Borden to give the other
day q summary Of the agricultural expan-
sion of the Dominion during the war. At
Its close 6,N0,0 more acres were under
cultivation than at the beginning. Thu
increase of cattle had been 40 per cent.
of horses Is Jer cent. of hogs more than
20 per cent. and of sheer more than 40 per
cent. Looking at such figures. 1t is hard
to believe that anada raised such armies
as h did. The increase in live stock
is particularly significant, for it is in large
part traceable to the development of ami
NAL .husbandry on western lands Soil ex-
perts nave long pointed out that the
prairie farmers could continue steady
wheat cropping just so long. Then they
would have to turn to diversified farming
and stock. Some of them nave already
turned.

, perience of our own; n it is alb
; surd to imagine that their under

always appears to us unnatural,
as we'll as most absurd. to speak
with any contempt of what is our
own falnily--transpl3nted only into
a remote region.
We will even say more: We con-
ceive that the institutions in Amer
; lea. and particularly the practice OF
; government, may afford many use
full lessons to the more ancient
governments of Europe and that
kings and people may learn that
governors are made for and
} not men for governors; that the
; first consideration everywhere is
the people and the comfort of the
people; that there is no very close
and necessary connection between
the expensive splendor of princes
and the happiness OF the country,
; though the president hangs the
bride of his horse to a pole whilst
he enters the congress. II America

possess, she likewise possesses
