IN CUbANS VICTORY.
GAME CALLED IN 9Th

The Cuban Stars had an easy time
registering a victory over the Perth
Amboy representative semi pro team

score at the last equal inning was
9-2.
Art Fedderson, formerly of the
Plainfield R~ecreations, started on the
mound for the Amboys. Oms, the
hard hitting center fielder, was the
stumbling block for the local
moundsman. He hit a home run to
left center in the second and a clout
over the right field fence with the
bases loaded in the fourth. FEEDER
son pitched three and one third IN
nings. and allowed twelve hits. He
struck out two batters Ind did not
issue a pass. Fred "Dopey" Smith,
star first sacker of the locals, pitch
ed the balance of the contest and
aside from the first of the sixth, al
lowed two hits, struck out one bat
ter and issued one pass.
Fabelo was on the mound for the
Cubans and the batting strength of
his teammates took good care of
him. Four hits were made off his
delivery, Eddie Einhorn's homer

Oms Starts
After Mesa and Baro had been re-
tired on grounders to Burnett and
Fedderson respectively, Oms made
his initial circuit clout. Ruddy's err
ror followed on Fabrics grounds
and Feran flied out to Smith. In the
Amboy half, Rudy flied to second,
and Milchick and Burnett famed
the breezes.
Dibigo got a scratchy hit in the
infield in the second. but was imme-
diately caught off first, Fedderson
to Smith. Perez famed and Portu-
ondo flied to "Pud" Stinson at third.

the third sacker's shins. He was
Immediately doubled up when Fed
derson grounded to second.
A Rally
Perez famed to start the fourth
and this evidently was a signal for
action. The next eight men hit
safely, a homer by Oms far over the
right field fence coming with the
bases loaded. Seven of the hits were
made off Fedderson and the first
man to face Smith, banged out a base
blow. The next two men were easy
outs checking the rally during which
two of the Stars batted twice.

forced McEnroe, and Einhorn fol-
lowed with his circuit smash over the
right field fence, scoring Burnett
ahead of him.
In the fifth, Fabelo obtained a
pass off Smith, went to second or a
passed ball after two men had flied
out, and scored on a long single to
left by the hard hitting center field
er. That ended the Cubans for the
fifth. Two outfield and an inficld fly
retired the locals in the last half of
the fifth.

There was little rain while the spec
tators were leaving the grounds, but
plenty of dust. A water wagon was
in attendance about a half hour be-
fore the game and during the play
Ing of the contest.
Aside from Oms, who made two
homers and a single. Baro, Fabric,
Feran and Dibigo batted well for the
Cubans. Fedderson and Rudy

locals, and Oms also starred on the
defense for the victors.

80 MODEL AUTO
To MAKE LONG
JOURNEY
Schacht Car, With Engine No.
81, Is One of Oldest
Still Running.
BY WILLIAM PICKETT HELM

Here is the oldest good-running-
order automobile in the world out
side Of a museum. It is a Schacht
car, made in Cincinnati in 1896
it's engine number is Sand it Is
owned by three high school boys
of Woodbridge, Md, who expect to
tour the Eastern section Of the
country with the car next spring
Their plans include a drive up
Fifth avenue in New York city.
The boys, Richard Ledger, Nor
ton Levy and Julian Prescott, found
the old car not long ago in a barn
where they were having a holiday
frolic. Just for fun, they put gaso-
line in it and cranked It UP. 1t
ran. Then they bought it at a
bargain price.
Their horseIess carriage-for mo-
tor cars were not called automobiles
when the '95 Schacht came out of
the factory-cranks from the rear,
and the engine Is housed behind
the seat. The steering gear is en-
tirely different from that of modern
cars. If the vehicle is to be steered
to the right, the wheel must be
given left hand turn.
This popularity came near wreck
ing the enterprise at the outset.
Young Ledger, driving the carriage
out Of the barn to the road i'm
mediately after the purchase was
made, had to make a quick turn to
avoid a gate post. He turned the
wheel the way he wanted the car
to go-and struck the post. Be-
yond a bent fender, however, no
damage was done.
The old horseless carriage. though
it has been in running order all the
time, has not made a. long trip
since 1906, when it took it's former
ewner to Philadelphia and New
York Since that time, it has, made
short trips along country lanes but
the people who owned it were
ashamed to take it on the high
ways.
The present owners, on the other
hand, tell the world they're proud
Of it.

Vatican Appeals for Aid to

BY GUGLIELMO EMANUEL,
International News Service.

ROME, Dec. 20.-Two cardinals
were created today at a secret con-
sistory at the Vatican. They were
Mgr. Lucid and Mgr. CALI.
Afterward a papal allocution was
issued expressing qualification over
the Irish settlement and appeal to
wheat growing countries to come to
the aid of destitute and starving
peoples.
The consistory met at 10 o'clock
and the ceremonies Of comforting
the red hat Symbolic of the car
dinalate) were witnessed by the
holy college.
Fears For Bishop Zepliak.
Pope Plus XII, in his allocution,
said he was still anxious over the
fate of Archbishop Zepliak, of the
Roman Catholic Church, who is
imprisoned in Russia. This prelate
was charged with treason by the
Moscow Soviet government. He
was sentenced to death, but later
sentence was committed to ten
years solitary imprisonment. Eff
forts to learn his fate have been
unavailing.
The pontiff expressed pleasure
over the successful visit Of King
Alfonso Of Spain to Italy, and said
he was delighted over the Irish
settlement.
Generosity Urged.
The appeal to the wheat growing
countries was made through Car
dinal Gasparri, papal secretary of
state. The pontiff said he looked
for generosity such as, in the past,
saved thousands of lives In Russia
and the Near East.
The allocution declared that con-
ditions Of the various nations have
not improved because Of dissen-
sions and hostility, while there Is
increasing need for help for those
countries weakened by the war;
