Pad Up

The Acme baseball team will
travel to Red Bank tonight to cross
bats with the Orioie combination of
that place. This is the regular
weekly twilight game on the sched-
ule of the Oriole management. The
Orioles defeated the Perth Amboy
Athletic Association in a one-sided
game at Red Bank a week ago Sun
day morning.
Manager Terio of the Acmes has
not announced his lineup for the
game tonight, but he has limited
that he will strengthen his lineup
considerably in order to make a
good showing against the Monmouth
county champions.
This game will start promptly at
{ O'clock and the trip to Red Bank
will be made by automobile. Art
Henderson and Larson will probably
comprise the battery for the Acmes.

early this season and is DESTROYS oil

While there is nothing spectacular
about Catcher Wally Schang he is
unquestionably, one of the most
valuable players on the New York
club.
With Schang doing the catching
the club went right u in front.
When the team came west it en-
joyed a very comfortable lead and
was a. hot favorite to repeat in the
American League.
Chicago was the first stopping
place of the Yankees. The club won
the first three games. Schang was
injured in the final game, which was
lost.
With Schang on the hospital list
New York proceeded to los IL out
of it's next is games on the road.
That record is a silent tribute to
Schang's real worth.
Schang is a great receiver. lie mas
a wonderful arm, though sometimes
lacking in accuracy and Is one OF
the most dangerous batters in the
American League.
With Schang out of the game the
crack staff of he Yankees slumped
badly. all of which merely shows

shortstop of the New YORK Yankees.
BY many of the experts Scott is
rated as the best shortstcp in the
Johnsoniar organization, and pos
sibly in the game. Only Bancroft OF
the National League, and Peckin-
paugh and Gerber of the American,
can dispute that right.
Scott is a wonder on defense. He
is at his best in a pinch, n OF the
greatest money players in the game
If there is n player in the Yankee
lineup who will help the Yankees
regain their winning stride, thai
player is Scott.
While not a hard hitter, Scott is
very timely with his bingles. In a
pinch many pitchers would rather
face some of the 800 hitters in the
Yankee lineup than Scott
Although rather slight of stature

ANDY MAZUREk
To TAKE REST
Retires From Amboy Roster
/ for Present, Due to III
Health

Andy MaZurek, third sacker of the
Perth Amboy Athletic association
nine since the start OF the season,
announced his retirement from the
teams roster yesterday. His reason
for quitting the team at this time is
i'll health.
MAJ lrek has been putting up a
good game for the Amboys at the
third sack and has been hitting fair
" we'll, but he is of the opinion that
his present health prevents him from
showing at his best and has there
fore decided to remain off the dia-
mond for a short period and per-
haps later in the season he will be
back at his old post.
1t is not known how Messrs. APP
plegate and Poulsen plan to fill this
gap, but it is probable Bill Dzurilla
will be placed at that position for
Sundays game at least. Aside from
this change, the Amboy team Will
oppose the Aquehongas at Totem
Vile on Sunday afternoon in the
same manner as they started against
the Recre+tions of Plainfield here
last Sunday afternoon.
Tom Henshaw. hard hitting in
fielder of the local team, is expected
back in the fold a week frtn sun
day. He injured his collar bone
while ct work two weeks ago, and
his absence from the local roster has
been, felt. His heavy hitting ability
ssure him of his berth.

Baseball's Prize
Bonehead Plays

Throwing the ball away without
the permission of the umpire is
something a bit new in the way of
ivory stuff.
In the old days. every now and
then some coacher would ask a
rookie" pitcher to see the ball. Oc-
c~asionally the obliging rookie
would throw it to the coacher, who
would then let the ball go by. while
the runners dashed for the plate.
The players to be involved in the
latest escapade of hat sort Were
Charley O'Leary of the Yankees and
and Bob Hasty of the Athletics.
Several years ~ In a game at
the Polo Grounds with runners on
second and third. O'Leary coaching
en- third, requested Hasty to let him
look at the hall.
The umpire saved Hasty. Feeling
that he should pass judgment on
the ball If anything was wrong, the
umpire called time just before Hasty
Cbligingly tossed the ball to O'Leary.
OF course, O'Leary stepped out of
the way and both runners scored.
However, the umpire sent them both
back as he had previously called
