WHAT THEY SAY
BILL RARIDEN

Bill Rariden may be old enough
TO retire to his farm forever after
finishing this season with the Reds
but he knows q lot of wise things.
He says:
mo matter how good a clubs
pitchers may be there are bound to
be of days when they get knocked
out or days when your team doesn't
hit. and it's the right move to send
someone UP to hit for the pitcher.
II you have a good relief pitcher or
two around you are fixed. A hurfer
who can go in there for a couple
Of innings every day or SO and hold
. lead or stop the other fellows is
worth more salary than any other
pitcher. If you have not such an
ANIMAL as a relief pitcher around
you aus send in one of the regu-
lars and thus break up the regular
order in which they ire being work
cd, or, worse yet, send in some
pitcher who doesn't NIL the bill.
There's nothing more effective in a
pitching way than to have four men
who can be worked in regular order.
A good relief pitcher enables a
manager to keep his men going that
way. Relief pitching is a trade all
by itself. If more pitchers special
lied in It or were trained in it we
would have tighter baseball"

ORGANIZATION OF RIVIES
IF COURT is AVAILABLE

Harold Hoffman. manager of the
Riverside basketball team OF South
Amboy last season, and also in many
years past, stated last night that
the organization OF a representative
court team at South Amboy this year
depended altogether on the chances
OF securing q home court. The Riyies
last year used the ST. Mary's hall up
70 the time 1t was closed for repairs,
and then came to the Auditorium in
this city, and Hoffman stated last
night that II st. Mary's hall can be

a fast representative basketball
team for South Amboy are very
bright.
II the South Amboy court is avail
able II viii be ONE time before the
Rtves can start their season for GER
tain necessary repairs will have TO
be made to the court. When the
announcement OF the Auditorium
lineup is officially announced IL Is
likely that members of the Audito-
rum team last year will not make
up entirely this years team.
1t Is known that several OF the
players who played under the col
ors OF the "Audis'' lar year will
not play this year, and this should
aid Hoffman a great deal in form
Ing a representative South Amboy
team from players in this city and
South Amboy. II Hoffman succeed
ed In signing ex-Audos when the
time for a championship series came
around players who were on the
Audo team against the Rivies last

Hitting the First Ball Pitched

Hitting the First Ball Pitched
That's broke up many a perfectly
good ball game-this hitting the
first ball pitched.
D'jever try it? It'l take~the heart
out of any pitcher.
How often have you seen a coupla

men up and three men down?
Then, all at once-wham. bing!
bust!-three hits In a row and one
Of them a double or triple or some
thing.
The sly manager has been watch
Ing the pitcher of the opposing club.
He has seen him sneak the first ball
down the batter's alley time after
time.
Then he passes the word around
70 the boys in the dugout to bust
the first
A pitcher naturally likes 10 lay
the hrst M over so he will have a
little margin to work on In taking
chances on the breaks of his assort-
ment
But the opposition batting order
can crack HIS "likes" wide open by
starting that old hitting the first
ball pitched stun.
1t works in any angle of life with
a fair producing average. If you
start to wait out those opportunities
that come along about every so Of
ten, why, they'll get by, and instead
of getting a base on balls you'll be
paying higher rent and taking a cut
In salary.
So hit the first ball pitched and
hit 1t hard. That's the secret of
many a m~ilionaire's bank account.

HARD COAL STRIKE
BELIEVED BROKEN
Governments Decision t.
"Stand Pat" Expected to
Force vacationists Back.

Unwilling to yield "one iota" to the
striking anthracite miners, the Gov
ernment today is prepared to enter
into a long struggle to break the
strike.
The Presidert has flatly stated that
he will not yield, and officials are
confident that this statement will
have its effect upon the strikers
within a few days, and the men will
return to their work.
Hugh Kerwin OF the Department Of
Cancellation OF the Department of La
Dor, stated today that all reports had
indicated the men were slowly re-
turning to their work, and he was
hopeful that the end OF next week
would see the tie-up in the anthracite
industry broken.
The President still holds a trump
card which he may play at any mo-
ment and this is a ruling that men
on strike are not entitled to back
pay granted them under the award
of the Anthracite Coal Commission.
This back pay amounts to $4,000, 900.
The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion is prepared to issue orders for
the diversion of bituminous coal to
those regions where anthracite Is
used.
j. d. A. Morrow, vice president of
the National Coal Association, stated
that the emergency created by the BIZ

cally at an end.

sold legally, and when a portion Of
the license money paid into the State

subdivisions of the State.
Under an act passed by the Ohio
