Some of the strongest teams in
this part of the country faced the
Regulars, and many of them were
turned back. The Atlantic City
Police team was defeated three out
of five games; the Melrose-Morris
Guards the same, while Egg Har-
Dor broke even in two games with
the local team. Beach Haven,
Bridesburg and Bacharach Giants
are the only other teams to claim
victory over Pleasantville.
Steinader won all IA of the vic
tories for the team, and dropped
only three games.
In fielding and hitting, the Regu-
lars displayed great power, their
activities in the field and with the
bat surprising anything usually
seen in a team of the same type.
Five members of the team, Hell
frich, Kuehnle. Steinader, Herr and
Wilson. all batted well over the
300 mark. Each of these men
scored at least once for every two
hits. Helfrich led in batting with
a percentage of .448, attained in
twenty games, while Kuehnle was
close behind with .429 in % games.

But by the same token quick
knockout victory for Dempsey

the earnest endeayors of Tunney.
A decisive ivvictory for Dempsey
will present Tunney with the
problem of fighting his way back
