performed in a baseball league
which was made up of New York
state and New England state mines.
Oldenboom and Kochek perform
ed with the Tannersville nine, and
both boys played excellent ball. The
pitcher won a majority of his games
and Kochek fielded and batted with
the leaders.
Early this season the success of
the Sheehan aggregation was cred
tied to the pitching of the Wood
bridge hurler, and the Dublin pilot is
confident that with Oldenboom on
the hill Sunday the Amboys will
suffer a second setback. It is not
known whether Kochek will be in
the Dublin lineup or not.

Evening

SOUTH AMBOY, Sept. THE
contest between the local P. r. R.
Y. NC. A. baseball team and the
Jamesburg representative nine,
scheduled for last night, was called
off on account of a death at James,
burg. The two teams will clash on
the Jamesburg field this evening.

Deboskey or Vanderveer will pitch
for the Jamesburg nine.
The Jamesburg representative
team suffered four setbacks In their

of South River, local Sacred Hearts,

of Perth Amboy. downed the colors
Of the Jamesburg outfit, the only
losses sustained by the d~own-county
organization this summer.
Morgan went down before James

LOCAL COPPERS
ANNEX OPENER
Molly TWirIs Classy Game in
Defeating Elizabeth Police
Outfit

Frank Seiboth's Perth Amboy
police b~alltossers performed like big
leaguers in downing the colors of
the Elizabeth law e~nforcers in a con-
test on the Raritan Copper Works
field yesterday afternoon. The final
score was 6-2. 1t was the first con-
test of the annual five game Eliza
beth-Amboy police series.
Captain Molly, veteran South Am
boy hurler, was at his best yester-
day and held the hard hitting Betsy
town club wielders to FIVE widely
scattered safeties. He was supported
in excellent fashion by the entire
team, especially Emil Koyen at sec-
ond, Jack Egan at third, and Mana
ger Seiboth in center.
Barry, a semi-pro hurler, did the
hinging for the Elizabeth cops and
but for two had innings also pitched
a creditable brand of ball. The Am
boy patrolmen collected eight safe
ties, five in the first two sessions
when three of their runs were tall
lied.
Molly, Jacobs and Egan were the
big guns in Batting for Amboy, while
Kiggle Coplan welded a menacing
stick for the Union county delega-
ton.
Elizabeth scored in the first on
two hits and an error, and their
final run in the sixth on a double
and an error. The local team regis
tered two runs in the first on a dou-
BILE and two singles, one in the Sec
ond on a single and a double, and
three in the fifth on two doubles and
two errors.
The Amboys won even with Man
ager Pete Buckley of the Elizabeth

day.
It has been rumored that frankie
Dunn, a southpaw, may be used by
the Aquehongas in the Amboy SER
les. The All Collegian twirler pitch
ed against the combine of Messrs.
Poulsen and Apologize last summer,
and in his first start went big. He
was shelled from the mound in his
second start. 1t is probable that the
batting strength of the Tottenville

Several men who were absent
from the Tigers lineup last Monday,
when the team stacked up against
the Stapletons and met defeat, will

win, when Gleason with a tone Of
sorrow in his voice that clearly
showed how ne felt, remarked:
"If I still had that old gang to-
gether We would be winning PEN
nants as easily as we did in 1919.
That was a great ball club.
In my time I have seen a lot of
famous teams, the old Baltimore
Orioles, the pennant-winning New
York Giants. the Chicago Cubs Of
1906 to 1910, and Connie Mack's
great club of ten years back, but !
will take the White Sox OF 1919 in
preference to any of them.
There never was a better fielder
than Felsh, and I I'M not excepting
Speaker or any Of the other famous
guardians of the middle pasture. He
could do everything. hit, field, run
and throw.
Many a Heartache
"And whet a great hitter Joe
Jackson a The big fellow was
one Of those natural batsmen who
could hit anything and was always
a threat at the plate.
Talk about great ieft-handed
pitchers, I never saw a better n
than Lefty" Williams. He knew
how to pitch and no left-hander
ever had more marvellous control.
Buck Weaver at third was q
wonder. He could make seemingly
impossible plays look easy, a natural
ball player.
Eddie Cicott was the mast r
pitcher who put some thought back
of every ball pitched. At first Gandii
could do everything well and Ris-
berg at short, while cratic at times,
could be just as brilliant.
Add to these stars Eddie Collins
(never was there a better second
saeker): Ray Schalk, incompatible
as a catcher. and Red Faber. one
Of the games best pitchers. and you
have the nucleus for a fairly good
ball club"
And having thus spoke. the KID"
took out a black cigar from his vest
pocket, bit of the end and started
for the smoker. The expression that
played over his face made It ape
parent that the scandal Of 1919 had
caused him many a heartaehs and
still ranked within him.

WHAT CITY PLANNING MEANS
Carefully Worked Out, 1t Is to the
Advantage of Every Dweller in
the Community.

Before the days of the elevator and
the steel frame, when the city popula-
ton was only a small fraction of the
population of the country, before the
days Of the automobile and noisy
garage, dwellers in cities could live
in comparative peace with only the
c~ommon-law protection against a bone
factory. The ever-increasing rapidly
of growth Of modern cities in all coun-
tries, the mighty changes of the last
forty years, have combined to make
city planning a necessity.
City planning is taking thought for
the morrow so that streets, parks, pub
lie places and public buildings shall he
in the right place and be adequate for
the needs of the future. City planning
is more than this, for 1t includes the
regulation of the use of land privately
owned by coming ordinance.
The term ''zoning'' has come to be
used to mean the regulation of build
ings in a city. 1t signifies such regula-
ton of the height, area and use of
buildings as will protect each landOwn-
err from the impairment of his share OF
light and access, as will protect his
ears from unseemly noises, his
from unpleasant smells, and his eyes
from offensive sights.

MRS. GUSSIE E. HANSEN.

Mrs. Gussie E. Hansen, of GIG West
52nd Street, is now numbered with the
multitude of Los Angeles men and
women who have realized the wonder
full merits of Tanlac. In relating her
experiences, Mrs. Hansen said:
at is wonderful what Tanlac will do
for one suffering from stomach trou-
BILE, nervousness and rundown con-
ditiOn. l have tried 1t.
Before taking the treatment every
thing l ate disagreed with me so that
l actually dreaded to sit down to the
table. suffered from constipation, had
awful pains across my back, and was so
nervous and run down l was in mis-
cry all the time.
"Tanlac was helping so many
others 1 thought 1t might help me, too,
and it certainly has. Why, my appe.
tite is just splendid, and my stomach
is in such good order 1 eat to my
hearts content. My back doesn't
bother me any more, and 1 sleep like q
child at night. l can't say too much
for Tanlac."
Tanlac is for sale by all good drug
gists-take no substitute. over 81 mil
lion bottles sold.

WHY TAKE
I%LAXATIVES?
Discovery by Science Has
Replaced Them.

Pills and salts give temporary relief
from constipation only mt the expense
of permanent injury, says IN eminent
medical authority.
Science has found a newer, better
way-a means as simple as Nature it,
self.
In perfect health n natural lubricant
keeps the food waste soft and moving.
But when constipation exists this
natural lubricant is not sufficient.
Doctors prescribe Nujol because It
acts like this natural lubricant and
thus secures regular bowel movements
by Natures own method-lubrication.
AS Nujol is not a medicine or laxa-
tive, it cannot grippe and, like pure
water, 1t is harmless and pleasant.
Nujol is used in leading hospitals.
