The Hartford Herald in its editorial
column, this weeks issue, says one of
the best campaign slogans (mearing
for the Democrats } has been supplied
which is, Cox and civilization VS..
Harding and He'll. Harding and
He'll! If you can attach more hell to
Harding than you did to that hypo-
critical screech of four years ago, that
yell, HE KEPT US OUT OF WAR,
vote for Wilson, peace and plenty,
Hughes and war, then sail in Bud
The Herald seems to think that peo-
pie have no memory and very little
sense, if any at all, to be caught by
this silly mollycoddle which to it
seemeth beautiful and catchy slo-
gan. We want to hear you yelling it
upon the streets and see you wearing
a flamboyant streamer labeled Cox
and Civilization VS. Harding and He'll

AmbOys Again Break Euen
In TWO Close Weekend Games

In an un~interesting game before
the smallest crowd of the season
Bill Manning's Amboy five basket
ball team scored a 1921 victory YER
the Bay Ridge Strollers on the
auditorium court Saturday night.
The work of Hank" Thomas and
Eddie White for the local represent
atives. and Blank and Seifert for
the visitors featured the game.
There was no sensational passing
done by either team, and there was
only one big shot made during the
game, this in the second half by
Phelan of the Bay Ridge team. The
inability of the Strollers to make
good their many chances from the
fifteen foot line was the cause Of
their defeat. The score at half time
favored the local team 17-11.
AT the start of the first half AM
boy took the lead and was neve
headed. In this session two field
goals by Harrigan, and one each by
White and Thomas. together with
nine foul goals out of twelve tries by
the latter, made up the entire AM
boy score. The visitors scored only
one field goal in the opening session,
Blank being responsible for this
double counter. and also for five out
OF six scoring scored during the
game. Nine goals were made from
the foul line by the visitors out of
sixteen tries in the opening frame.
The beginning OF the last session
found the visitors trying hard to ov-
ercome the Amboy lead. but weak
foul shooting again prevented the
Strollers to come within striking
distance of their opponents. In this
session Blank scored four field goals

As Out of so Targets at
Monthly Shoot Saturday.

The monthly shoot of the Perth
Amboy Gun Club was held Saturday
at the clubs range in outer Smith
street in a brisk wind which was not
favorable to high scores. Three
cups were contested for as usual,
they being the October club cup,
Chamber of Commerce cup and
high CUR cup. There were q large
number OF shooters present, this be-
ing accounted for because of the close
proximity of the hunting season and
a desire on the part OF the gunners
TO get their shooting eye PINNED for
November 10.
The unsteady wind caused the
targets to jump, making high scores
extremely difficult. Despite this ham
dicap however, several high scores
were turned in. The high u cup
at fifty birds, a scratch event with
no handicaps, was won by Alderman
Albert G.. Waters. who broke forty

was a close second with forty-four.

The playing of Raub, who tips the

strength. While the other members
of the line do not attract the atten-

is on a par with that Of former Scar

backfield men who are exhibiting

Which?

Which?
With the 1920 crop of gridiron
stars rounding int finished battle
form the question of stardom in
football and baseball is on the
boards.
The limelight in either sport has
its advantages.
But which would you rather be-
a "Bo'. McMillin or a Babe Ruth
a Chick" Harley or a Ty Cobb
which?
Shelve the financial angle. Foot
ball is an amateur sport. Baseball
is a professional game in the big
league sense.
For sheer pleasure derived from
actual playing the football star prob
ably has the bigger inning while 1t
lasts-game for game.
In doing battle the gridiron hero
has an opportunity to share in every
play of the day. He carries the ball
a score or more times perhaps. He
passes the leather or he boots the
oval over the bar.
The baseball star gets fewer op-
portunities to show his mettle. Ii
he comes to bat more than -four
times in a day 1t is generally a one
sided game. In the field his chance,
to handle the ball are few in com.
p~arison. Psychological moments dt
not come every day on the diamond
In baseball a player has his leal
days along with his fat ones. Ii
football a star will show his STUFF
every time he is in the game. Ever
Babe Ruth doesn't get his home-rur
sock every day, you know. But DO
McMillin will knock a whole flock o
opposing players down and carry the
leather a good many yards ever,
time he dons the moleskins.
1t takes nerve to play either game
Football offers more battle contact
however.
7 They're both great institutions
We get 154 days of baseball and pig
skin battles only come around ono,
a week for a couple of months il
the fall.
On the gridiron a star only shine
two or three seasons and it's al
over. Ty Cobb has clicked on for {
tfteen-year stretch on the diamond
Both pastimes are great American
institutions. We wouldn't be tn,
same kind of folks without either.
