With the strong, Well-balaneed n
Nell-cpached machine OF Neptune
nigh school OF Ocean Grove. The
contest today will be the thirteenth
on the schedule and whether or not
the hoodoo number will have any
thing to do with the result remains
to be seen.
This game will also be the third
of the week as the Woodbridge high
school representatives have been
met and defeated twice, ending the
series as quickly as it began, me
PREMIER moundsmen on the CHM
son and White pitching staff. West
colt. and Nedswicki, were both CIV
en- good workouts in the contest
with the township schoolboys. West
colt held the Red and Black team
to two hits, while Nedswicki was hit
for nine at the neighboring town.
The latter, however, took things easy
and was content to let them hit II
and give his teammates a cnance
to distinguish themselves. Between
Westcott and Nedswicki these is lit
tie to choose.
Sectional Honors To Winner
The winner of the contest this al
ernoo will be declared East Jer-

Last season Neptune carried OH the
sectional honors after beating the 10
Gals in a memorable eleven inning
battle in which Nedswicki and Jau-
cues, the crack seashore hurler'

ing duels ever seen down there. The
game would have gone further had
not Westcott in left field let a iy
ball slip through his hands n al
low two men who were at that time
on base to score with the tying and
winnIng runs. There were two out

ST. Benedfcts Prep of Newark VIC
beat the DOWNSTAIRS by a 12-o score
I'm a smuggling contest. The Newark
prep school team of this year a
not been as strong as those OF pre-
vious years and the win over the
strong Neptune high diamond caVof-
ters was q surprise. Newark sports
writer's in their columns last week
admitted that Perth Amboy must be
defeated before the state title Is
claimed by the seashore representa-
t;ves. Several other schools are IN
the running for the state a but
Neptune with its spotless record
among the high school ranks is in
the fore.
The coaching authorities at Nep-
tune are cognizant of the fact that
Amboy is not a weakling and as a
result are printing their star pitcher
Jacques, for today's game. He VIII
probably be chosen on the all-state
high school baseball team by the
sports writers of Newark who con-
troll all the selections. Neptune has
won sixteen out OF seventeen games
played.
The work of Nedswicki or West
colt will be watched with interest
for the former has a no-hit game to
his credit while Westcott has pitch
ed a two hit game and won the three
games which he started with COM
paratiVe ease. The rest of the AM
boy lineup will probably be the same
as has started the other games. Fen

ond, Captain Bill Rhodes at short
and Seaman at the fiery corner will

The team left this morning by au-
tos for the seashore resort. They
will arrive early in Asbury Park
rest until the game time which
will be about 3 p. M. A former
league empire will officiate accord
ing to a report from Neptune. A
large crowd of rooters accompanied
the team which is under the direc-
ton of Captain Bill Rhodes for this
afternoon.

NO CHANGE IN PRIMARY
Members from Rural Districts Vote
Solid in Opposition.

st. Paul-The Girling- bill
to change primary elections from May
to September was defeated in the
House of Representative when rural
members formed a solid opposition to
it. The vote was 43 for passage and
80 against.
Thomas H. Girling put up the only
defense for the bill, and the protests
from dozen legislators representing
farming communities swenl away all
chance of its passage. Their arguments
were that the farmers are too busy in
September to take time off from their
threshing to go to the polls. They be-
lieved that the change would benefit
only the candidates, and would work
hardship on the country workers.
The bill had run the gauntlet of the
elections committee and consideration
by the committee of the whole with
out any determined effort having been
made to beat it. The committee report
ed it back to the House without rec
ommendation, and when considered in
committee of the whole the first ink
ling of opposition appeared. Efforts
were made to amend it by changing
the time for the primary to July, but
by agreement the bill went over to the
calendar for final passage. While
awaiting final roll call the rural mem
bers assembled their forces and were
all set for the killing.

HARDING MAKES
SHIFT IN CABINET
Harding Appoints Retiring Indi-
ana Senator as Postmaster
General.

Washington-Selec of Postmas.
ter General Work to succeed Albert
Fall as secretary of the interior and of
Senator Harry S. New of Indiana to
become postmaster general was an
nounced at the White House.
The change in the cabinet lineup
is to take place on March 4, when Mr..
Fall retires after two years service
The nominations of Mr.. Work and
Senator New were sent to the Senate
to permit their confirmation before
the present session of Congress comes
to an end.
The selection of Mr.. Work to take
the Interior portfolio has been fore
cast ever since President Harding be-
gan to turn over in his mind the
names of available candidates. A resi-
dent of Colorado, and man of dem
onstrated ability in governmental or
ganization, Mr. Work is regarded by
the President as fulfilling all the quail
fications for an Interior secretary.
Senator New had been offered a
place in the original Harding cabinet,
but declined because he thought he
could render the administration a
greater service by remaining in the
Senate. In last years primaries he
was defeated for denomination, how.
ever, and when it became known that
he was under consideration for the
cabinet an elem&nt of the Republican
organization began determined but
losing fight to prevent the appoint
ment.

Vote on Payment of Possession Com

st. Paul-C. NJ Bendixen's iron ore
royalty tax bill, taken as a special or
der in the house was passed by vote
OF 103 to Is. An amendment by A.
G. WEIGH, raising the rate from to
10 per cent, was lost by vote of As
to So, but one by N. T. Moen, raising
the rate to per cent, was carried.
The bill now goes to the senate.
After his amendment had lost, Mr..
WEIGH gave notice that he will intro
duce a bill raising the tonnage tax
rate on iron ore from to 10 per cent.
Seven country members of the
house who attended possession COM
mittee meetings in ST. Paul will be re-
imbursed for their hotel and board ex-
penses, although strenuous opposition
to this S23S.11 item developed before
it was finally approved by vote of 68
to 46. The debate on the rules COM
mittee report including this item was
marked by exchanges of personalities.
Representative c. NJ. Iyerson was
the member against whom threats
were directed for his persistent refus-
al to vote on the motion to adopt the
report, although his name was repeat
eddy called after refusal Of the house
to excuse him from voting When he
| did vote in favor of the adoption, ex.
planning he was against the principle
of possession conference but that he
favored reimbursement of members
who attended them in good faith. Rep.
resentative S. A. Stockwell was so in
censed that he apologized to the house
for having seconded Mr.. VERSIONS
nomination for speaker.
w. I. Norton, chairman of the rules
committee, moved adoption of the re-
port.
o. D. Nellermoe moved exception OF
the S238.11 item, Mr.. Norton agreed
and moved adoption of the report,
which motion carried IS to II. This
carried procession work of several
employees.
On Mr.. Norton's subsequent motion
to authorize reimbursement on the
S23S.11 item, many members attempt.
ed to evade voting, and it was at this
point that Mr.. VERSIONS refusal to vote
almost blocked proceedings. Mr.. Mel
lermoe suggested that he be arrested
if he continued his refusal, and Repre-
