Pirates 10, St. Mary's 1

| The Pirates had an easy time de-
 feating the St. Mary's nine in the City
 league Saturday afternoon at Walnut Hill park. The score at the end of
 the game which was called in the
 seventh Inning, was 10 to in favor of Charley Millers charges. Beagle's perfect batting streak was broken in the fourth inning when Jagolowski struck him out. Up to this time, he had slammed out one hit and had sac riflced a run in. The fourth time at bat, he hit again. and had he not struck out, he would have had another perfect day. Meehan, catcher for the Pirates, was injured in the first in- ming when Grace coming in from third, collided with him. He was forced to retire from the game in the second frame in favor of "Butsy" Hall. Jagolowski turned in some good pitching, but seven errors behind him helped him to lose.
 Fafnirs 12, Independents
 The Fifnir nine, after staging q rally in the eighth inning which re- suited in eight runs, trimmed the In- dependents in a well-played and inter- esting game by the score of 12 to 8. Resteili, up to this time, had pitched good game, but the Fafnir clouters sent him out into the. left garden in favor of "Bosh" Schmidt, who was able to stem the tide only after few more runs had been scored. Up to this point, the Independents were leading to 4. Both teams played good ball, but a few costly errors were made on both sides. CharIand, veteran of the old Ward league, was in the box for Fafnirs, and he puzzled the Independents with his slow curves 4 bunch of well laid bunts, however, had him rattled for time. He was relieved in the sixth by Tommy Blan- chard who held the Independents to only one run. "Bosh" Schmidt pulled two of the prettiest squeeze plays of the season, both times scoring Cher pack from third and reaching first himself Both teams "razzed" Um- pire Young throughout the game for doubtful decisions.
 Rangers IS, Cardinals
 The Rangers vs. Cardinals proved an uninteresting game, the two teams showing up about as opposite as the two poles. Veley and Chant both pitched well, but the former got poor support. Old Pete Fusari. who was going good when the rest of the Rangers were in their cradles, was the ,andy kid with the willow, getting .hree hits in five tries Hayes hit for } double. Had the Cardinals felded better the score might have been smaller

Art Bagger's Lefty Louie" COM
bination went into action last night
and fired number of broadsides
into the ranks of the visiting Aque-
honga pinmen from Tottenville with
disastrous results. The Amboy port
siders met little opposition from the
Islanders, but the scores turned i'll
by the south-paw pinmen were such
as would make a, much stronger
combination that their opponents
last night go the limit.
The port-side fingers seemed to
have the jinx on the visitors from
the very outset as Amboy won the
first game by 106 pins, John Larsen's s
20S being high with Tilp's 202 a
close second. In the second game
Capt. Art Basger broke into the
double century column with g. 205
which was high score, this game be-
ing won by margin of 170 pins. In
the third game Russell Hart an
nexed a 2t1 score which was high

high for the night. Sleight's 159
average led the visitors.

PLAYOFF MATCH FOR
FIRST HALF H0N0RS
AT ELkS CLUBHOUSE

The first half league was featured
by a nip and tuck race between the
Ironclad, Starfish and Madison teams
for first place. The Starflsh com
bine was leading on the eve of Feb
ruary 2, the date scheduled for the
final match on the first half sched-
ule and the Madisons were carded to
play the PAGERS in this set of games.
1t was necessary for the Madisons
to beat the PAGERS three straight to
tie the Starfish, and they succeeded
in doing this.
In their games together to date
this season, the Starfish have the ad-
vantage. When they met for the first
time on December IL, the Madisons
won two but the Starfish copped two
games in the match on January IT,
and also in their second half match
on February 10. Aside from the
games tonight these combinations
will meet once again this season, un-
less they win the first and second
championships.
The Madison team dropped two
games to the Ironc1ad team in sec
ond half schedule match last night,
and the Starfish in their last start
took two games from the Madisons.
There is great interest in tonight's
match and a big crowd is expected

Denberg EggerS Donovan {

nation in Carteret

There is a possibility that home
basketball will be resumed in Car
teret in the near future. The prin-
cipal reason for this action is the
excellent showing made by the
Roosevelt Separates Of Carteret in
defeating the National Turner's Of
Newark on the latters Bruce street
court in Newark last Sunday night.
Manager Jerome Jacobowitz has
. wonderful collection of players
in Pete Eggers, Jiggs Donahue, Jim

tain Freddy Glochau. This is the
lineup which was used against the
crack Newark team on Sunday night
and against the Perth Amboys in
their last previous contest on the
local auditorium court. The Sep
arates beat the Amboys in this en-
counter.
Last season the Separates rein
troduced basketball in the borough
and played Sunday and Thursday
night games, and this season started
the season playing Sunday night
games. When Sunday night gam es
were discontinued, it was decided to
play on Thursday night but this
change proved unsuccessful.
The fans Of the borough should
be willing to support q team of the

IN COMEBACK
Young Let's to Fight Sammy
Price Here a Week
Tonight

South Amboy boxing fans are in
terested in the plan Of Young Let's
Of the Maxville section to stage a
ring comeback at the show of the
Center Athletic Club in this city a
week from tonight. He will fight
Sammy Price OF Newark in one of
the four-round bouts on this pro-
gram.
Let's is busily engaged at the
present time training for this bout
under squad of experienced train
ers, and when he comes to the local
auditorium d week from tonight, he
will be fit as fiddle. He will be
accompanied by a big delegation of
fight fans, as he is one of the most
popular fighters South Amboy has
ever boasted Of.
The Maxville lad will not have an
easy time with Price, for the latter
has participated in a great many
bouts at Newark and made a real
showing at a show staged in South
Amboy last year. Price also is
popular in South Amboy.
Boxing fans in this vicinity well
remember the meeting of Let's and
Ed Coughran OF South River in the
local auditorium at a police show
about two years ago. There was
more action in the three rounds this
prelin bout lasted than there is in
the average preliminary bout staged
in this section.
This bout is one Of the three four
FOUNDERS on the program.

BOYS IN ACTION
Mack Bull Dogs VS.. Junior
Mechanics on South AM
boy Court

The attraction for the South Am
boy High School court tonight in the
regular weekly game on the sched-
ule OF Manager Les Stratton's Jun
ior Order Big Five is the Mack Bull
Dog quintet of New Brunswick. Once
before this season the Mack team
came TO South Anboy and after a
hot tussle, the home players came
out ahead.
Following the victory scored over
the Speedways OF this city last Mon
day night, Manager Stratton made
known that his players expect to &C
through the balance of this season
without another setback. In the con.
test tonight 1t is expected that Greer
and Bennett will start in the ad
vanced position, Scharff or Furmar
at center and Perkins and Wilbur II
the backfield.
Just what lineup the New Bruins
wick team will have when the game
gets under way is a question. There
is q. possibility that the pick of New
Brunswick will be taken to the
South Amboy court in an effort to
even the series between the two
combines. Charley Eppinger will
hold the whistle in this contest.
In the near future a return game
with the Speedways is anticipated
and also Lightning-Junior Order
clash for the championship of South
Amboy. There will be a preliminary
game tonight.

AND SEPARATES
In Prelim Contest on South
Amboy Court-For City
Honors

One contest that will create plen-
ty of interest in South Amboy sports
will be that of tonight between the
Lightnings, one of the leading con-
tenders for the championship of the
city, and the Separates, another one
of the league teams.
When the league was first started,
the Separates seemed to fade in the
path of the other members of the
league and lost their first three
games. But lately they have picked
up quite a bit, having defeated the
Broadway Five by a So to 20 tally.
The Lightnings have won their
first three games and at the present
time seem to be the probable oppo.
sition to the Junior Order quintet
at the termination of the court
season.
In tonight's engagement the
Lightnings will line up in regular
fashion-McDonnel and Briggs in
the advanced positions: Barty at the
center berth, and Kennedy and Alex
in defense berths, while the Sep
arates will line up with James.
Oliver, Geant, Mundy, Dill and
Lambertson.
Orbery Scharff. one OF the Junior
Order quintet, will hold the whistle
in tonight's game.

7A/7F/sH AND MADISON TEAMS CLASH THIS EVENING
Bill PembertOn Wins
Highest HOnOrS I'm 'Y'
Bowling Tournament

Bill Pemberton, the "old standby"
OF the 7. M. g. A. bowling team for
several years, again proved himself
to be a master OF the alleys in the
five man tournament which closed
last week, Bill capturing not only
high average for the twenty-one
games bowled, but high score no -
ors as well. Bills team did not
win the league but the fact that 1t
did not was no reflection upon Bills
bowling.
Pemberton's average for the tour
nanent was 1854. and his high
score was 2S7, the latter being a
mark which hundreds never rearh
in life time. Bill has bettered
this high score on one or two for
NOR occasions. Art Jensen was the
runner-up for high average, he
turning in a 1S4.3 average for the
twenty-one games. His best mark
was 2S5. Tom Smiths 1918 was
third, his high score being 242;
Wibiralske, captain of the "Y" team
was fourth with 1904 average and
high score of Eat and Edgar Maliet
with an even 1S0 average and 224
high score was fifth.
AS the rules of the tournament
made it impossible for high average
man to win high score also, the high
score prize will go to either w.
biralske or Lloyd johnson, the lat
ter having been sixth in average, but
tie with Wib for high score at 247
These two men will bowl off the
tie
Bowling balls will be presented to
Pemberton and Jensen, all of the five
men on Wibiralske'S winning team
will be given medals and the winner
of the high score bowl-off between
Wibiralske and Johnson will get a
medal. The members of the winning
team are Capt. Wibiralske, Pappas,
