IS Defeated
Wild Throw Gives BeImontS
Winning Run in the Ninth
Inning

The Maurer Athletic Association
nine lost a hard fought game on
Sunday afternoon by a score OF I 70
6 TO the Raritan nine of Elizabeth,
This contest was played on the Maui
rer grounds.
The home players tailed once in
the first inning. but the Belmonts
took the lead in the second sending
two across the pan. In
the last of the second Manager John
Urbanski's players went to the fore
and held the lead until the first of
the seventh when the visitors knot
ted the count.
The Maurer players scored five
runs in the first four innings and
another tally in the eighth. the lat
ter run tieing the game for the SEC
ond time. The visitors scored in
the second, sixth, seventh, eighth
and ninth. the latter run was the
margin BY which the Union county
outfit carried off the bacon.
A wild throw in the ninth inning
was mainly responsible for the win
ming run. A. Dametsch made a fea-
ture play in this inning, stopping a
drive to third, touching the third
sack and throwing to first. Wagon
hotter pitched good ball for the
home team but six errors were main
" responsible for the visitors VIC
tory.

Baseball's Prize
Bonehead Plays

Can you imagine a player sitting
on the bench through a seven-run
rally and forgetting to take his place
at bat?
That is what actually happened
in a game between New York and
st. Louis in the American League.
1.-THE game was played at st. Louis.
The player who forgot to take his
turn at hat was Claude Derrick,
playing snortstop for the Yankees
in that game.
Frank Chance was then manag-
ing the New York club. Chance
came close to being the victim of
Derrick's forgetfulness, or lack of
interest as you will have it.
1t so happened that Chance be-
came a hero for a day because of
Derrick's bone" However, he had
Just as good, if not a better chance,
of landing in the dub class.
1t might also be of interest to
know that Derrick never played
another game for Chance. or in the
American League after that day. 1t
marked bis passing from the
majors.
Up to the eighth inning of the
game st. Louis had New York badly
beaten. The Yankees were trailing
by about six runs. Chance put him
SELF into bat for pitcher Fisher and
hit safely.
That hit started a rally. After
Chance had scored he went to the
coaching line at third. Derrick
was hitting eighth in the batting
order.
When it came Derrick's turn to
bat, someone yelled to Chance at
third that he was up again. In
stead of hitting ninth in the pitchers
place, he hit eighth in Derrick's
place on his second trip.
Chance again singled scoring two
runs. Those two runs proved to be
the margin by which the Yankees
won the game.
Not until the inning was over did
the st. Louis club discover that
Chance had batted out of order his
second time up. However, it was
too late then the damage had been
done.

Afternoon

The first game of a series between
the Elizabeth and Perth Amboy
police baseball teams has been
scheduled for the Wonderland Park

These two teams participated in two
games last season, each combination
having copied a contest.

the representative bluecoat teams
of Newark, Jersey City and other
departments in THAT section of the
state. The Amboy police endeavored
to get into the police league, but
their application was received too
late.
Molly. has been pitching great ball
for the Amboys this season, and
there is no reaso why he should
not hold the Union county officers

do the receiving for the home
team. The lineup of the Eliza

After this game the Elizabeth COPS

ton and Richards on the Elks' al
lcys last year
When a big match is arranged,
Manager Levine plans to use alleys

l and 4 to accommodate the spec
tators, inasmuch as the proposed
grand stand in some cases will prove
inadequate to handle the crowd de-
slrous of witnessing a match of the
Richards-Seaton class.
Manager Levine is confident that
a city bowling league will be sue
cessfully organized again mex win
ter, and aside from a league of this
character, the Argonne alleys will!
be represented by a team which
will be in the field for Middlesex
equity bowling honors.

Field on Sunday
Morning

Arrangements are being made
Tor a game Sunday morning be-
tween two combinations headed by
DR.. Ben Slobodien and Gus Nobel.
This contest will be staged on the
