PRINCETON, Oct. 11:-Alderman
Bill Roper of Princeton Is in clois-
tered seclusion these days investigat-
ing the scientific theory that light
ming never delivers its electrical fury
to the same address twice.
A year ago the Princeton football
squad riddled by the departure of
five outstanding stars, Lourie, Keck,
Wilmer, Clarity and Gilroy, was
struck by the lightning of a football
miracle, the effect of which was to
lift a team of obvious m%ediocrities
to the dizzy heights of a champion
ship.
This year Roper finds himself in a
similar situation with the entire Gen.
ter of his line shot away, the two
surviving veteran ends standing as
heroic reminders of a glorious past.
On these two ends and a back
field of four seasoned men the
Philadelphia political genius must
build his new team, a team which
will be called on to battle Notre
Dame, Navy. Harvard and Yale in
quick jumps.

ones. Last year 1t was Chicago,

The program for the second show
of the National Sports Club to be
presented in the local Auditorium, on
New Brunswick avenue. next Tues
day night, was announced by Match
maker Edward Poulsen. There Is a
little change in the system used by
the matchmaker for this show and
the change should be for the benefit
of the fans.
AS previously announced, Charley
Ryder, of Elizabeth and Staten Is
land. conqueror of numerous great
featherweight battlers, will take on
Patsy Nelson, of Newark, the junior
lightweight champion of this state.
Both boys have a list of victories to
their credit at the present time, and
they are training faithfully for next
Tuesdays show. A great many fans
who have seen the two boys in ac-
ton, are satisfied that the hard hit
ting Betsytown lad. will score a
knockout, but they say hat the sleep
punch will not come until the sixth
seventh or eighth round.
In the semi final encounter, also
eight rounds. Memo Favor, former
ly Of New Orleans and now of
Plainield, will exchange blows with
Lew Seller, a fast going Newark boy.
Favor recently issued a challenge to
Mickey Walker. of Elizabeth. welter-
weight champion of the world, who
has been suspended for a year on ac-
| count of an alleged "put-up" fight
with Jimmy James, of Ohio in New
| ark on Monday night. Walker fail
| ed to accept or reject Favor's chal-
lenge. Seller has fought many of
the best boys In the welterweight
division throughout this section of
the country.
Change Made
Instead of putting on n six and
three fours. as for the opening show.
the matchmaker has signed two good
six FOUNDERS and one four round bat
tie, to complete the program for next
Tuesdays affair.
The main six will be between Joe

BASH TRIBE
WINS HONORS
Three County Baseball
League Has Been Entered
-Amboy in Cellar

The baseball combination of Max
Bash, of Trenton, copied the second
half championship of the Three
County baseball league, on Satur-
day last, and with this victory goes
the championship of the league for
the season, as the Bash tribe also
COPIED honors in the first half drive.
In Saturdays game, Bash won
from the j.. N. Barber nine, also of
Trenton, on the Barber field. by a
Ito score. Bash finished with seven
victories and two defeats. Barber
with six wins and three losses,
Hightstown won five games in eight
starts, Freehold won four and lost
five, Yardville copied three victor
les in nine starts, and the local rep
resentative nine won one and lost
five.
Amboy did not enter the league
until after the second half schedule
had been started and as five of their
six games were played on foreign
fields, had little chance of coping
any honors. The only victory of
the Poulsen tribe was scored at the
expense of Yardville on the local
field.
For a, time in the second half race
Hightstown and Freehold doomed up
as possible winners, but when Bar
Der pulled to the front, the Bash
outfit started a drive for first place..
Trenton fans are well aware of the
fact that Barber is no match for
Bash, and this is the reason a post
season series was prevented. Free
hold is interested in the Monmouth
county league at the present time,
the circuit being led by the Atlantic
Highlands team. This league is
scheduled to end about November
4 and Freehold is second in the
standing.

BOXING & VAUDEVILLE
FEATURE PROGRAM TO
Be EXHIBITED TONIGHT

Matchmaker Bill Seiboth, of the
local Elks lodge, is confident that
boxing fans will receive plenty of
fighting tonight out of the thirty
rounds of boxing to be exhibited at
the New Brunswick avenue Audi
forum, as a part of the Elks bene-
fit smoker program. The proceeds
of this affair will be used to pur-
chase uniforms FOR the members of
The local band.
Z The program follows:
Johnny Carroll, of Carteret, and
Mickey Cangro, of Staten Island,
- eight rounds.
George the Greek, of this city, and
Z Plainfleld, and Battling Schultz, Of
sypublin, six rounds.
80 Roughhouse Nelson, of West AM
boy, and Ed Carroll, of Staten ISL
and, four rounds.
Kid Lewis, of Railway. and Nanny
Friole, of New York, four rounds.
Johnny Pietro, of this city, and
Young Le9lie, of Carteret, four
rounds.
Fighting Stevens, of William
street, and Kid Peary, of the Hun
garian Catholic Club.
Two of these bouts are return
contests. Carol and the Staten ISL
and lightweight, fought a sensational
battle on the first card prepared by
Ed Dalton, of the Central Athletic
Club last winter. The followers or
the two men were OF the opinion
that their favorite carried off honors
in the battle which was unusually
close. The two boxers have train
ed hard and expect to make a sem
sational showing tonight.
Carroll is looking forward to
numerous bouts in this city, Carteret,
Newark and at Long Branch, while
Cangro expects to show at several
other clubs in this state during the
coming winter. Carteret and Staten
Island will be we'll represented at
the New Brunswick venue hall to-
night.
Second Return
The second return battle will be
between Young Leslie, of Carteret,
formerly of this city, and Johnny
Pietro, of this city. Last winter
these boys fought a terrific battle at
Coughlin's auditorium in the bor-
ongh, and since that time fight fans
of the county have been aching to
see a return go.
In the semi-fnal contest on to-
nights card, George the Greek, we'll
known wrestler and promoter, of
Plainfield and this city, will stack
up against Battling Schultz, of Dub
lin. This will be a siX-round bout.

winner, who recently came to this

of action.

NEW YORK, March 13-Do you
know that Ty Cobb is ''prepping'
just now for his nineteenth season
as major leaguer--and that he is
the veteran of 'em all?
Cobb broke in back in 1905.
Eddie Collins is the 'runner-up,"
with seventeen years of consecutive
playing back of him and facing the
eighteenth, without fear of losing
his job because of old age.
Third in point of service is Wal.
ter Johnson, who embarked upon
his career In 19O7---and seems good
for another season or two anyway.
Back q that ancient trio is a
quartet which got into action in
1908, and therefore is readying up
for the sixteenth year. They are

The catching staff will consist of
Clemens. Ainsmith and Harry Nc

pitching will be taken care of by
PETER, Doak, Toney, Sherdel.
Haines, North and Pertica, first

prospects. including Barfoot, Sell,
knight and Dyer.
There is no doubt that the Card
inals still possess the greatest
punch in either league, as attested
by the fact that they have averaged
more than five runs game for the
last four years. That kind of hit
ting would win almost any race ii
it weren't for the fact that the
defense has never quite made the

1t isn't difficult to find the
reason for the spirit OF optimism
that prevails in the camp OF the
Rickeymen here. Every man in
the outfit realizes that the team
has been strengthened in it's most
vulnerable spots and is conducting
himself accordingly.
Fred Toney. former Giant and
Red, is toiling like a hill horse 10
get his behemothic bulk in condi-
ton for, strenuous campaign.
spurred on by the knowledge that
he is expected to furnish the club
with one reasonably well-pitched
game every fourth day. They may
say lot of things about Fred,
but no one ever denied that he
could pitch winning ball.
The Cards did not have Toney
last season. Neither did they
have Hy Myers, the former
D0dger, who will give the club
an Outfield defense for the first
time since the late Austin Me-
Henry was seized with the illness
that finally cost him his life.
The Cardinals, in the past few
seasons; displayed many unique
ways of losing ball games. partic-
ularly in the outfield, but with
Myers and Max Flack available for
a fun season, better things are
looked for.
This pair will take care OF center
and right field, respectively, and
should do 1t well, F'lack having
entirely recovered from the injury
to his leg which hampered him
somewhat during the 1922 race.
Schultz, Mann, Mueller and Jack
Smith will battle for the odd
place.
Bottomley, the kid first baseman,
appears to have given sufficient
proof, in a half season. that he
can hit big-league pitching. The
great Rogers Hornsby has second
nailed down, of course. and 1t is
believed Milton Stock will smother
any and all competition at third
base. but Johnny Lavan has a
battle on his hands to dispose of
