Withdrawing its petition to the pub
lie service commission of Nevada for
permission to- reduce the service ON
six brarch lines from daily TO tri-
weekly has apparently needed the
voice of public protest. ] II. Dyer,
general manager of the Southern Pa

SO earnest have been the many
requests made by our patrons TO con-
tinue the present daily schedule, with
suggestions as TO increase in husi-
ness, that we have concluded, under
the circumstances, to continue the
present service for the time being. In
hope of improvement. Our applica-
ton Is therefore withdrawn. which

Company is admittedly the result o.
protests fled with the public servic,
commission of Nevada and of news
paper opposition to the reduction o
service by the Southern Pacific Com
pany, the entire press of the stat
having protested against the propose,
reduction and the Reno and othe

Perth Amboys To Play
Ridgewoods Tomorrow

Baseball fans from this locality
who witnessed the two real ball
games played by Joe Mullen's Perth
Amboy baseball team on the Raritan
Copper Works field last Sunday at
ternoon will surely turn out again
tomorrow afternoon to witness the
game between the local representa-
tives and the crack Ridgewood team
from Brooklyn. There will also be
a fast preliminary game between two
local combinations.
Manager Mullen's team will take
the field tomorrow afternoon with
Harry Chunk Apologize on the
mound. and Mickey" Milchick on
hand for relief pitching duty or
service in the outfield, Meyer Larson
behind the bat, Burke at the first
bag, Johnny Fullerton at the key
stone sack, Andy Kane in the short
field, and Willy Christopherson at
the difficult corner, and Mickey
Loeser, Jim Romer and Richmond,
the Tottenville %tosser, in the outfeld
pastures.
The Brooklyn manager has sent
the m of the following players
to Manager Mullen: Eiseman, Ryan,
Bremen, Davis, Tanning, Mergle,
Drummer, Bennett, jain, O'Malley,
and Mulhall. jain or O'Malley will
do the flinging for the visitors.
Judging from the past records of
this outfit, the Perth Amboy teams
three game winning streak is in

danger.
The Perth Amboy team as a whole
has been playing good ball in its
games this season. Apologize is
quickly reaching his m~id-season
form, while Milchick's experience in
the South has meant a great deal
to him in the way of getting in real
condition; Larson is showing up well
behind the bat, but has not yet
reached his general batting speed.
stretch Burke's experience with
the Newark Bears has been brought
out in his playing around the first
sack and at bat, Johnny Fullerton
and Billy Christopherson are play
ing their usual peppery game. while
Andy Kane's hitting will mean a
great deal to the locals. Loeser.
Romer and Richmond will no doubt
shortly be an unbeatable outfit in
batting and fielding.
Local fans have plenty of room at
the local field with the erection of
600 capacity bleacher stands and
there is no reason why the attend
ance at the contests should not
reach the 1900 or 1000 mark. The
games are as good as can be witness"
ed anywhere in this state. Manager
Mullen is doing everything In his
power to bring the best to this city,
and is always. ready to fill up the
weak gaps on his team in order to
give the city a strong representative
team.

RED BANK BEATS
=. VARSITY NINE
Score II Runs in Fourth In
ming and Win by Score of
10 to g.

A fourth inning rally which net
ted eleven runs, was responsible for
the first downfall of the season for
the Perth Amboy High School base
ball team, at the hands of the Red
Bank High School varsity nine at
Red Bank yesterday afternoon. The
final score of the contest which last
ed eve innings, was 1873.
Nedswicki, the Sophomore class
twirler, was on the mound for the
Crimson and White team. His work
was fairly good up to the eventful
fourth, when five hits, three hit
batsmen, two walks and a costly
error by DeAndrea sent the collec-
ton of runners across the pan The
Red Bank players punched their on
ly extra base hits in this frame.
After the damage had been done,
Sofield relieved Nedswicki. and
twirled in good fashion in the re-
naming one and one third innings
of the game. Lantand was the first
Red Bank twirler. and although hit
harder than Nedswicki. managed to
keep the hits scattered. He was re-
lieved by Lanzona with w out in
the sixth, and the second pitcher
famed the last four men to face him
in this game.
Charley Kochek led the Amboy
batters, with three hits. Desmond's
work at short featured for the Wis
itors. as did Westcott's speed on the
bases.
