The Simpson NJ. i. church will

time rivalry will be found at its
greatest when the games start in
November.
Track meets and swimming meets

CHANCE To SEE
BALL GAME

Baseball fans who were not salts
fed with the early closing of the
schedule of the regular Perth Am
boy baseball club can witness a con
test tomorrow afternoon on the
Raritan Copper Works field which
promises to be as interesting as any
game played here this year. The
philadelphia Colored Giants have
been booked by Edward "Blackie"
Regain, manager of the Amboy post
seasen team for the contest and in
as-much as the Philly colored play
ers are rated to be as strong as the
Pennsylvania Red Caps. there should
be plenty of action in tomorrow's
melee.
Fans who followed the Perth Am
boy baseball club during the season
will remember that the Penn Red
Caps played a flashy contest IN this
city during the summer. The bat
ting of Mickey" Loeser and the
pitching of Chunk" A~pplegate be-
ing responsible for their downfall.
Behind in the seventh inning the
Amboy team finally won out aided
mainly by Loeser's homers in the
seventh and ninth.
In order to give the fans the hard
est contested game possible, Manag-
er Regain has been called upon to
strengthen several positions by the
acquisition of a number of players
who did not perform with Amboy in
last Sundays game. Jess" James
the fiashy Parlin first sacker who
made good in q number of contests
with the Amboys here this year will
be back in the lineup. as will Mick
ey" Loeser the crack left fielder. and
Mike 500, outfielder and pitcher.
Jim Stevens captain of the Par
lin representative team this year will
be stationed at the second bag for
Regain in this contest. The Amboy
team will therefore lineup with APP
plegate on the mound, Gassick oil
Bader doing backstop work. James
Stevens. Stinson and Regain doing in
field duty, while the outer gardens
will be taken care of by Loeser
Hornsby, 500 or Pfeiffer. The game
will get under way at $3.50 o'clock.

OFFICE
LOSES MATCH
Pemberton Averages 215 But
Forman's Stars Take Two
Out of Three Games.

Minus the services of Clarence
Hoffman,, one of their best bowlers,
the Post Office team went down to
defeat for the second time this sea-
son at the hands of Forman's Stars
on the Y. M. c. A. alleys last night.
Although Bill Pemberton. of the let
ter carriers, turned in his best work
of the season on the alleys, the Post
Office men dropped two out of three
games. Pemberton averaged 215 for
the match while Eyerkuss of the
winning team averaged 191 for the
three games. The Post Office anchor
man also won high score for this
match with a score of 246 in the
second game.
The All Stars started strong, win
ming the first game by lightweight
pins, the second game went to the
letter carriers by seventy-one pins,
but Forman's warriors came back in
