NINE TO PLAY
SACRED HEART OUTFIT

SOUTH AMBOY. June 16:-The
Sacred Heart baseball aggregation
will have for their opponents on
next Sunday the fast Maurer nine of
Perth Amboy. 1t is expected that
the local warriors will have to travel
fast to beat the sturdy c~hallengers
since the Maurer boys have made
several appearances in this city
since the beginning of the season
and their ability is widely known by
the local fans.
Buck" Share will occupy the
mound for the locals. while the line
UP will remain unchanged for the
coming Sunday battle.
The local team has this year one
of the best followings they have had
the privilege of attracting since
their organization. This is probably
due to their remarkable showing
on the diamond this season.

that the faculty aggregation has
practiced on numerous occasions in
preparation for this game.
II is not likely that the Perth Am
boy high school nine will agree to
a meeting with the Perth Amboy
grammar school team. although
such a game would attract consid-
cradle interest. There is no reason
why the general rule should not be
set aside once in awhile. seldom
does a grammar and high school
team clash. but in this case II is
believed a good game would be wit
messed and it would allow Coach
Waddell to get a line on his material
for next year.
