|NCOTS PLAY
PARL|N TEAM
Second Game of Annual Sc
ries on Dupont Grounds
this Saturday

Marty Hurley will lead his Rari-
tan Copper Works forces against the
Dupont company baseball team of
Parlin on the Parlin grounds this
Saturday afternoon. This is the sec
ond game of an annual series be-
tween the two combinations.
Willard Warner, who registered a
victory over the Parlin combination
in the first tilt, is scheduled to re-
ceive the mound assignment for the
visitors this weekend. Jay Wallace,
of the Dublins, will take care of the
baekstop work.
The Parlin outfit with their
strongest lineup on the field failed
to furnish any real opposition to the
Ingots in the first tilt, and Manager
Hurley is therefore of the opinion
that the series will end Saturday.
Hart probably will do the pitch
ing for Dupont, and the remainder
of the lineup will be practically the
same as has been used in contests
played to date this summer. The
Dupont nine is one of the teams en-
tered in the Middlesex County In
dustrial League.
Inasmuch as Mickey Loeser is
scheduled to play with the Amboys
in a Three M league contest at Free
hold on Saturday, the Ingots viii
have a new left fielder at Parlin.

GET LICENSE
Rumor Has it that Bill Cough
lin is After Boxing License
for Borough

The New Jersey Boxing Commits
sion will shortly grant a license to
William T. Coughlin Of carteret to
conduct boxing shows in the bor-
ough during the coming winter, it
has been intimated by Allan Trimble,
secretary of the commission.
Coughlin has been connected with
various boxing undertakings in the
borough in former years, and If the
license is granted it is probable that
the shows will be staged in Cough
Inns Auditorium, the scene of bas-
ketball games and boxing shows in
former years.
Carteret boasts of a number of
real boxing attractions, Johnny Car
roll, Benny Hertz, Carl Morris and
others, and then the Carteret pro-
moter has this city, Elizabeth, New
ark and other cities from which to
obtain boxers. Hertz and Morris
are rapidly coming to the front, and
it is believed Carroll has a good
many real battles left.
No announcement has been made
to date regarding the running Of
boxing shows in this city during the
winter months, but it is believed the
Centre Athletic Club of the Holy
Name Society will again be in charge
of this branch Of sport in this city.
Matchmaker Ed. Dalton conducted
owe a half dozen interesting boxing
shows under the auspices of the Gen.
ire organization in the local audi
forum last season.
New Brunswick probably will have
boxing shows again this winter.

RETURN HERE
Former Giant and Newark
Bear May TWirI One Week
end Contest

1t is probable that Charles Dutch"
Schessler, recently of the Newark
Internationals, may toe the mound
for the Perth Amboys in one of their
three games over the coming week
end. Amboy has two games with
Freehold, one on Saturday and the
second on Monday, and on Sunday
afternoon the Carteret Field Club
will be encountered here.
Schessler went south with the New
York Giants this spring and his fall
ure to carry out club rules was re-
sponsible for his departure from the
ranks of the present leaders. He
returned to this state and after pitch
ing several good games in semi-pro
circles, received an offer from the
International League outfit.
With Newark, the former local
moundsman has pitched many a good
contest, but again failure to live up
10 the rules of the club, is blamed
for his departure from the roster
of the Essex county entry in the
International circuit. Schessler Isl
we'll known here, having pitched
during the better part of last sea-
son for the combine of Messrs. Poul-
sen and Apologize, and he compiled
"a real record with the locals.
Toney Denny of Plainfield, who de-
feated the Yardville nine in the To-
Gals first Three-M League game last
Saturday, will also pitch ms of the
three weekend encounters and a
second Newark twirler probably will

AS a result of their splendid

year, when they ennexed the indie
pendent championship of the state
of New Jersey, opportunity is now
Knocking at the portals of the Perth
AmDoy Five. The basketball mo-
guls of the Metropolitan league have
extended an invitation to the local
magnates to enter that big league"
taxing over the franchise of the
Brooklyn Professionals, which club

this coming season.
AT a meeting of the managers of
the various teams, constituting the
metropolitan league at Brooklyn,
ATuesday night, Captain Hank"

attended the meeting as a member
of the Brooklyn Professionals, was
asked by the managers to ascertain
the probability of the local club
purchasing a franchise, participate
ing in the doings of the Metropol-
itan league this fall and winter.
The fact that the Metropolitan
league, which occupies the same po-
@sition in basketball that the Ma
=tional and American leagues OCCUPY
lin baseball, is DESTROYS of having
Perth Amboy represented in this
league. evidences the high regard
and standard which this city has
achieved in basketball, as a result
of the splendid showing of the
Perth Amboy Five last fall and
winter, under the Lowenkopf and
Levin regime. In the event the To-
cal management decides to partici-
pate in this league. and purchases

Honey Russell, AlI-New York
State guard, who performed with
Albany: Harry Riconda, recognized

our own Captain Hank Thomas.
Leo Lowenkopf and Isaac Levin,
who promoted basketball at local
Auditorium court last year, and pi-
loted the loca representatives to the
highest honors ever achieved by a
local basketball team of this city
are seriously considering the offer
to Join the Metropolitan league, and
in the event they desire to take over
a franchise in this league, will no
doubt add several local dribblers to
the above roster, which at the pres
ent time is recognized as the strong
est contender for the Metropolitan
league honors this coming year.
The Brooklyn Professionals were
tied with Paterson for the cham

was only after a play-off that they
were nosed out for the Champion

Should the Metropolitan league
come to this city, several new
