Baseball preparations for the
coming season in this city are not
being speeded up i'll any noticeable
fashion. Prospects for an industrial
diamond league are not very bright.
and there has been little heard of
plans for a representative Saturday
or Sunday nine for Perth Amboy.
The Raritan Copper Works plant,
which has always been one of the
first industrial organizations in this
city to talk plans for baseball, has
not taken n step in this direction to
date. Everything is being held up
pending the calling of tho r. c. w.
Athletic Association annual meet
ing which is usually held in January
but will not be held this year until
the first week in March.
After this meeting when the Off
GERS for 1922 will be elected n sur
vey of the plant will be made for
diamond material and then it will
be possible to say whether or not
the Copper Works will have a repre-
sentative team or not.
But the fact that this meeting
has not been held is also holding up
preparations for the Amboy repre-
sentative Sunday team, inasmuch as
the contract for the diamond VIII
not be awarded until after the cleo
ton of officers. No definite infor-
nation has been given out regard
ing the numbers Of persons having
bids entered for this field, but it is
understood that Harry "Chunk''
A~pplegate. well known local pitch
er, is one man DESTROYS of plotting
the local team while Joe Mullen.
anage OF the local team last year,
has also announced he is after the
field.
There is no reason why prepare
tons for a local Sunday team should
not already be started, providing a
good representative team is to be
chosen. If one mar or another is
to pilot the local outfit, a decision
should be reached at al early date
SO that this party a start to build
his team. otherwise desirable
men will plan to play with other
teams or leave for other sections of
the country to play. Apologize has
done a great deal for baseball IN
this vicinity and Mullen has also
been connected with the diamond
game for many seasons.

DEVELOPMENTS IN

Three developments in radio
that can be seen in the near future
by Major Genera9 G. o. Squier,

First, simplification and stand

Second. the use of light and tele-
phone wires as aerials for every
body. =.
Third. the use of local power
systems for local broadcasting.
Through these three develop

We are authorized to announce
Judge G. P. Long a candidate for
reelection to the Office OF Circuit
Judge. He is serving his first term
and has made an enviable record
fer the rapidity with which he dis
patches business and the impair

Justice, playing no fayorites, but
deciding each case on its me rits.
We have heard no adverse criticism
Of him either as a man or as a

If " ur case is tried before Judge
Long yon will get Justice" Out OF

have been reversed by the Supreme
