JENSEN To Do
PITCHING HERE
ScheSIer Has Been Dropped
From Staff Sacred Hearts
Sunday

Charles Dutch Schesler has
been dropped from the pitching staff
of the Perth Amboy Athletic Asso-
citation baseball team, according to
an announcement made by Business
Manager Ed Poulsen recently. Aicer
Jensen will carry the pitching bur-
den for the remainder of this sea-
son.
Jensen finished the Tottenville
game on the local field two weeks
ago in great style. His showing
against his old teammates pleased
the fans of this city and there is no
reason why the big southpaw should
not be able to hold his W for the
remainder of the season.
Sunday afternoon the Perth AM
boys will cross bats with the Sacred
Heart nine of South Amboy on the
Raritan Copper Works field. The
Sacred Hearts are c~ontenders for
the Middlesex county championship.

on the Woodbridge grounds.
The Sacred Hearts have played a
majority of their games on their
home field and have been defeated
three times. Their latest defeat was
suffered at the hands of the Polish
Giants of South River. Newmark,
former Y. NJ. H. A. basketball play
er and pitcher. or Share, formerly
of the Maurer A. A., will do the
pitching for the Sacred Hearts in
this contest.

Clash on Grove Street
Labor Day

Baseball fans of this city and
Woodbridge are taking great inter-
est In the booking of a return base
ball contest between the Speedways
of this city and the Woodbridge
Knights of Columbus baseball team.
The Woodbridge Caseys took the
measure of the Speedway nine on
this Woodbridge field earlier in the
season, and Manager Bill Sheehan
of the local nine made every effort
to arrange a return game. but was
not successful until the present time.
1t Is probable that Bob Risley will
occupy the mound for the Caseys in
this contest and Pender will be sta
toned behind the plate. Manager
Fenton will endeavor to have his
strongest team IN the field in an eff
fort to repeat the victory over the
Speedway nine.
Southpaw Oldenboom will prob
ABLY be sent to the mound for the
visitors and Meyer Larson will be on
the receiving end. The Speedways
will play their hardest in this con-
test as a victory over the represen-
tative Woodbridge team will mean

Chicago Cubs Leading
Travelling Major League
Team ITO Date This Year

The Chicago Cubs are the best
road team in big league circles this
year.
They're holding down third place
in the National race solely because
of what they've done on foreign
Melee.
II Bill Killefer's men played as
wei. at home as they do on the road
they'd be in second place.
They're the only outfit in either
major league to do better on the
read than at home.
And thus far only five of the other
10 major league teams have done
better at home than the Cubs have
done on the road.
In a year of rather poor road
teams the Cubs feat of winning nine
more games than they have lost on
foreign diamonds stands out as u
remarkable achievement.
The best home team in the ma
jors are the Browns of st. Louis,
ccitenders for the American League
pennant chiefly because they have
won 20 more games at home than
they've lost. On the road they've
not quite broken even; at home
they've been mighty hard to lick.
Home Percentage .7O4
Lee Fohls team has a home per-
ceptage of .704. Next comes the
Giants with a home percentage of
$50, followed by the Yankees with
623, and the Reds with .617. No

Grudge Battle Feature
The return bout between Johnny
Carroll Chrome favorite, and Jack
Mcfarland, of Elizabeth, is a grudge
contest. Carroll suffered the worst
setback of his career at The hands
of the Betystown boxer N Railway
several weeks ago. At one or two
stages in the Railway fight, the
game Chrome battler was on the
verge of a knockout. Another man
would easily have gone down for the
count after receiving some of the
punishment Carroll received in this
engagement.
Carroll has trained faithfully in
an effort tC atone for this defeat,
and Chrome fans are of the opinion
that if Mcfarland wins tonight he
will have defeated a well trained
boxer. Mcfarland was little heard
of in this vicinity prior to the Rah-
way engagement.

IS NOW UP TO TURK NATIONAL
 MEET AT ANC0RA

London, Oct. 10-(By The A. P- The questionof peace in the Near East now rests with the Turkish Ma tionaIst assembly at Angora which has before it the armistice condition laid down by the Allied powers.
 Meanwhile the Mudania conference has been adjourned and the Allied generals have returned to their head quarters in Constantinop1e to await the Turkish decision.
 The Allied terms include with drawa1 of the Turkish troops from the neutral zones of the DardanelIes and Bosphorus limitation of the number of Turkish gendarmes to be allowed in Eastern Thrae. and non-occupa- ton of that province by the Turkish army until after a peace treaty is signed.
 Confronted by the new program, and assured of the Allies re-estab1fsh- ed unanimity. the Turkish represen- tative at Mudania, Ismet Pasha, let it be known that his powers were 11m- tied, although he was in constant te1ephonic communication with Mus tapha Renal Pasha and that the rnal word must come from the National assembly.
 Constan tinop1e advices report the arrival of further Turkish forces in the neutral zone of the Isnid Penfn- sula, on the Asiat1c shore of the Bos- Iphorus opposite Consta ntin oule The front ranks of the Turks, however, have not been advanced farther The British are landing achievements to protect their railway communtca- tions.

Poli Review

Few acts in vaudeville today can
 surpass for either humor or daring, the clown bicycle presented by, Bud
 Snyder and Bluch. which is one of Polls theatre during the first three 1 days of this week. The double som- ersault on a bicycle, which closes the act is a fine trick, intricate and in- teresting.
 But, however, this is not the only feature offered for the Poli patrons Indian Reveries. a novel act with sev- eral beautiful scenes, was well re-
 ceived. The leading role in the playlet is taken by Chief Oskomon, who is assisted by dainty Peggy Stew
 art. Scenes in the far west, in Spain
 and in & French garden, are all novel and charming. Cardo and Noll, two splendid singers, immediately won their audience with the fine rendition
 of 70 Sole Mic" Mo-! They tT were recall recall ton of a duet from "Il Trevatore." The Jack Hughes Duo are versatile musicians, each playing at least f1Ve
 and Marine, complete the bill with a | new line of funny chatter interspers-
 ed with snappy songs.
 However. the cinema offering, 5; | featuring Elaine Hammerstein. in every way equals the vaudeville bill. l The picture is one of startling and
 surprising circumstances with clever pretty little ultra modern illustrator l who, although she loves a certain l man, hesitates to become his wife,
 because she might lose her own iden- l tity. However, they wed and decide to keep the marriage a secret from their friends But somehow, like q good man, you can't keep love down, and the precious bit of news leaks out, after both young people have suff cred several nervous shocks from
 wrong impressions taken by the1r | friends. Lloyd Hamilton in 'Po cor
 Boy" is one of the funniest pictures
 seen here in a long time. Scenes of the various players in action in the | World Series are shown in the Pathe | News.

OO,OOO GREEK REFUGEES IN WAR BELT THREATENED WITH STARVATION MANY ARE DYING BY PEST|LENCE

London, Oct. 1O.-More than 4oo.- 900 Greek refugees, mostly women, old men and children are massed in Greece, Thrace and upon islands in the Aegean sea threatened with death from starvation and exposure. All were driven from their Near East homes by the war between the Turks and Greeks and all are penniless.
 The British and French are now turning their entire attention to the relief of the Greek and Armenian re- fugees. Hundreds of thousands of them will have to be evacuated from Consta ntinopple and Thrace before the peace treaty is signed and the Turkish shoulders occupy both those district To add to the horrors which confront these homeless, penniless, starving hordes, pesti!ence is decima- ting them. Medical supplies are lack ing and there are olny a few nurses and physicians to care for the dying.
 It is probable that both England and France will vote a sum of money to be administered by the League of Nations and a commissio headed by Fridtoff NanSen to go to the Near East to supervise the relief work pr. Nansen had wide experience in this kind of work in Russia.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1922-10-10

Dr. Nansen will arrange for the transportation of Greek fugitives from Thrace and Constanttnople to Greece.
 The Greek government complains that the country is already overrun and that it must have outside assis- tance There is famine and bread shortage throughout Greece and al- ready thousands of refugees are com pelled to seek shelter in warehouses and barracks and churches.
 Dr. Nansen probably will go to Broussa first then to Athens. From reports in hand, pr. Nansen says that the situation of the fugitives is made more serious by the fact that they are practically all women. old men and children who are incapacitated for work and cannot earn their own living. Families have been separated and there are thousands of children who are being cared for by strangers
 The refugees are being concentrated in F principal centers.
 American Relief stations have been set up and are now functioning with typical American efficiency. R. R Roger, of Philadelphia, is trying to communicate with American relatives of Greek and Armenian fugiuves tC appeal flor help,

WEST END THEATRE REVIEW.

The West End theatre opened up as a vaudeville house to a packed audience last evening, the vaudeville being followed by Mae Murray in "Broadway Rose"
 Four of the best acts from the Lowe circuit were witnessed, coming direct from New York. Every act was given heavy applause and people at last nights performance spoke highly of the vaudeville.
 Lucy Bruch. girl violinist. opened up the show and was recalled many times; Hanson and Mae in their news room sketch were a scream which kept the audience laughing all the time. Flaherty and Stonning present e. clean, clever and up-to-the-min conversational oddity, followed by snappy dancing and singing. The Harvest Four, a quartette that has played the Lowe's' circuit many times. was given heavy hand and was brought before the audience 8 num- Der of times and they had to come out and give the people one more song.
 The vaudeville will be changed every two days and the manager will look over these acts before bringing them on here and will try to give the people the best program obtainab1e.
