Morris Chaikens, of 1928 w. Third
street, Chester, Pa, was caught in
Atlantic City and held for the injuries
to Rocco Stango, aged three years,
who was hit on the White Horse Pike
just out of Absecon, on Sunday, by
Chaiken's machine. He had fled the
scene without stopping to- ascertain
the ehild's injuries. Rocco was ac-
companying his father, Donate Stango,
of 1922 S. 18th street, Philadelphia, on
a trip to Atlantic City, and had left
their automobile during a brief stop
made along the road. Chaikens drove
between the Stango and another ma
chine in his hurry to get past, and in
doing so caught the little boy between
two machines. His injuries were not
necessarily fatal, but the trip to At
lantic City was abandoned and the re-
turn made to the Philadelphia home. i

Win Again
With Gegan Pitching
Defeated HammOnton Saturday
Afternoon By Score of Al.
Good Teams Coming. :

With Manager bill" Gegan again in
won a game over Hammonton here on
Saturday afternoon by the score of 4
to l. Gegan only allowed the visitors
five scattered hits and they were able
to score but once, this being in the
eighth inning. Gegan also made two
of the Regulars eight hits. During
the past month he has been pitching
good ball, and the Regulars are max
ing up for the games they lost at the
beginning of the season. They will be
the County Champions this year.
Woods, the Hammonton pitcher, was
found for eight safe hits, which sent
the four runs home for the Regulars;
two being made in the second inning
and two in the fifth. Fithian. the
Hammonton left fielder, was the star
player for the visitors. He not only
caught the balls that came his way,
but he always knew what to do with
it after he had secured 1t. His throw
ing was perfect and won him applause.
He was the youngest player in the
game.
Last year Pl%easantville defeated
Hammonton in a play-off at Somers
Point, after the two teams had each
won a game on the home grounds.
Manager Gegan has announced that
some of the best teams from Philadel-
phia and New York will play here
during the remainder of the season.
Next Saturday the Lit Brothers team,
of Philadelphia, will play here.

by an electric train at the Noah's
Road crossing in this city. He had a
fractured skull and internal injuries.

of Atlantic City when he reached the
crossing. According to a witness he
was warned of the approaching train
by several boys, who stood awaiting
the electric train due to leave Pleas
antville station at 2.30 p. m. to pass.
The train is said to have caught the
front of the truck and carried it 20
feet down the track, throwing Scarlet
into the embankment. He was put
aboard the train that had run him
down and taken to the hospital.
The truck was completely demolish-
ed, with the exception of the chassis,
and parts of the body were discovered
all over the tracks by people who

THREE GASOLINE FIRES.

The local fire company was kept
busy on Saturday responding to
alarms from gasoline fires. Early in
the morning a slight blaze damaged
the truck of the Chelsea Laundry
Company. The fire company was call
ed out, but the blaze had been put out.
Short circuit of the wiring system
caused the fire.
During the morning hours a visitor
threw a lighted match near a gasoline
tank and caused another blaze. This
was neal Park avenue. The fremen
arrived in time to keep the blaze from
communicating with the garage. Still
another fire was caused from the same
action late in the evening. This was
at Hecker's garage. A machine was
being supplied with gasoline, when a
lighted match caused a fire which for
a time threatened to blow up the
place.
