most dependable moundsmen, will
face the South River high school
nine on the slab, this afternoon at
the cross river settlement. The re-
turn of Westcott Is a surprise as it
was a forgone conclusion at the be-
ginning of the season that the High
street boy would confine his efforts
to the basketball court only.
Coach Waddell's announcement
that he will be or hand for the re-
mainder of the eason has boosted
the stock of the locals several notch
es higher. With such a staff of art
lists as "No-Hit" Nedswicki, West
colt, Wilson and Carbon, the AM
boy scholastic representatives should
easily carry off the county title.
This afternoons battle will be one
for blood as the basketball contro-
versy is still fresh in the minds of
the representatives of both OF the
schools. Coach Fitzpatrick has been
