The Carteret Field Club delded
and batted in excellent fashion be-
hind the twirling of Speed Sulli-
van in a contest on Brady's field in
the borough last Sunday afternoon,
and the Nationals of Staten Island
were easily defeated. The final
score was SO.
Sullivan allowed seven widely
scattered hits. famed eight batters
and issued one pass. His opponent,
Powers, was touched for eight SAFE
ties famed four batters. walked
three and hit one batter. The win
ming pitcher contributed two hits
to insure victory, n a triple, the
longest hit of the game.
Urbanski and Dametsch played
excellent ball at shortstop and third
base, respectively, and Manager
Staubach is confident that the adj
dition of several men to his roster
will insure a victory over the Am
boys on the local field next Sunday
afternoon. Scally made two hits for
the home team in the National

Tomorrow night the Carteret

WHITE SOX HURLER RETIRES
SIDE; 9 STRAIGHT STRIKES
nv NEA Service) }

CHICAGO-The feat of Pitcher
Thurston of the White Sox in retir-
ing the opposing side on nine
straight strikes Is without parallel
in major league ball as far as dis
cerned by the records.
Pitching against the top of the
Philadelphia batting order in a re-
cent game, which the Athletics final
ly won in thirteen innings, Thurston
retired the hard hitting AS on nine
pitched balls.
The first pitch to Outfielder Nc
Gowan, leadoff man, was a called
strike. He swung at the next ball
and missed. The third pitch was a
called strike. MCGOWAN went to the
bench for the customary drink of
water.
Up steps Chick Galloway, hard
hitting shortstop. Galloway swings
at the first pitch and misses. The
second pitch is a called strike. A
healthy swing that fails to connect
with the third pitch, sends Galloway
benchward.
The crowd is beginning to enthuse
over the unusual feat.
The smuggling third sacker, Sammy
Hale, is next up. Hale swings at
three perfect strikes, missing each
and every one by a healthy margin.
Thurston had retired the side on
nine pitched balls, three called
strikes and six missed strikes. Not
so much as a puny foul was made
off his delivery in that inning.
Practically every nj Of the nine
pitches was identical, the ball was
delivered over the inside or outside
corner Of the plate, about six inches
above the knee.
II would have called every one of
the pitches a strike If the batters
had failed to swing at Them" re-
marked Umpire Hildebrand, who
was back of the plate.

EAVORS CRAMTON

Proposed Too Small.

The plan proposed by Representa-
tive Cramton of Michigan of having
the federal government pay a fixed
sum annually toward the mainte-
nance and development of Washing

missioner Rudolph.
Mr.. Rudolph, however, disagrees

Uncle Sam should contribute. The
representative from Michigan advo-
Gated fiat sS,OOO,O00 a year, regard

the board of Commissioners believes
the governments fixed allotment
should be at least s10,O0O0OO
me theory of this proposition is
that the Commissioners could ask for
any amount of money annually they
thought was needed for the COM
munity, with the taxpayers of the
city meeting all above the federal
government's fixed proportion.
For example, last year the city
fathers asked the budget bureau for
$31 100000 for the year beginning
July I. 1923. If this had been appro-
priated under the Cramton plan the
treasury would have paid $4,000. 900
and local property owners $4,000. 900.
Such plan, however. would mean

Tor $s.000.000 would be only about 25
per cent of a 100000 budget
Mr.. Rudolph believes that under
such an arrangement the upbuilding
Of Washington could be pushed more
rapidly. because the annual appro-
prtation bills probably would be
larger than at present. with the tax
payers meeting a greater proportion
of the total.
