should compete with Pittsburgh,
Germantown and Johnstown in the
final round roben.
In their first game with the ne
groes the Amboy team TOOK the lead
and practically had the game won
14-S, when the Philadelphia team
started squirt, which the Jersey
players were unable to stop. The
negroes won 1914. and then swept
through the second game 1873. thus
eliminating Amboy.
In the four team round robin
event, each team played the other
for the best two out of three games.
Pittsburgh took two straight from
the Philadelphia team ald Johns
town and won one and lost two to
Germantown. In these games only
Germantown showed up better
against Pittsburgh than did Perth
Amboy.
Although Germantown won each
match, each of the three teams OPP
yosing they won a game from them
and this gave Pittsburgh the higher
percentage.
The round robin resulted in Pitts
burgh being awarded the champion
ship with Germantown second, Johns
town third and Philadelphia South
West fourth. All of these teams in
the finals were Pennsylvania COM
ti%nations.
The Perth Amboy team consisted
bert Peakes, Austin Hornsby, George
Dover. Joseph Frantic. Herbert
Rankin. Sam Miller, Gene Parker
and Ellwood johnson. All OF the
players were given a chance to play
in the various games, changes being
made in the lineups so as to allow
three members to rest at a time.
The Amboy combination exhibited
unusually good team work through
out the morning. In their first
game with the negroes the Amboy
team apparently grew over-confdent
with the 14-8 in their favor
and let up their hard work. Before
they could get together again the
colored team had won and this un-
expected upset played havoc with
the Amboy teams morale in the
next game.
Manager Sam Miller is already
endeavoring to secure a series OF
games with the Germantown team.

Considering the fact that there
