CASEYS PLAY
SOMERvLLE
Opponents Have Been De-
feated Only Once During
Present Season

John Harrington's Perth Amboy
Knights Of Columbus baseball team
will travel to Somerville tomorrow
afternoon to cross bats with the
Scmerville Athletic Association nine
of that place.
The Somerville team has compiled
a great record playing Saturday
games at home throughout the pres
ent season. Only one team has been
successful in downing the colors OF
this team, and this honor belongs
to the Perth Amboy Dry Docks nine.
Manager Wesley Wilson's forces
staged a ninth inning rally in a game
played several weeks ago and as a
result of this rally a ten game win
ming streak was broken.
Last Saturday afternoon the Am
boy Caseys handed a great lacing
to the Metuchen representative nine.
Jack Egan did the pitching for the
visitors and in addition to holding
the Metuchen swatters under con-
troll, led the Casey nine with the
stick.
Wood and Larson will comprise
the battery for the Caseys in the
Someryille game and the remainder
of the lineup will be practically the
same as was used in Metuchen last
Saturday. The players are request
ed to meet at the corner of Smith
and State streets at l o'clock tomor-
row afternoon.

Harry Catena could be considered
as such. All three of these men were
stopped in the second round of their
respective bouts by Colletti and all
three received a broken nose at the
hands of the midget boxer.
