In the defeat of the Danbury
Hatters by the Pacer crew by a 2 to
1 score yesterday, one of the best
contests yet staged in the Atlantic
league was played at Danbury. tt
■was a pitchers' dual to a certain ex
tent up to the ninth inning. Ely,
Hand and Meara, all Pacer members,
■were stars. "Buddy" Sheaffer was
star in a class by himself. He held
the Hatters to four scattered hit3,
■while the Pacers collected five from
Schwartz's delivery. But one error
was made in the game and that was
contributed by Ruddy in a fast play
at second.
The Danburyites opened fire with
a run in the initial inning and the
Pacers tied the tally in the third.
This was done when Pop Edgar re
ceived a free pass and scored on a
magnificent double off the bat of
Skipper Ely. After that the going
was nip and tuck to the finish. Ex
tremely tight playing prevailed and
the advance was cautious and care
fully planned. The Perth Amboy
representatives were there with an
exciting ninth-inning finish, in which
stanza they won the game. In the
closing chapter Ely was given a free
pass to first. Shankey, the next
batter up, fanned the breeze. Meara
then came along and laced a single
to right, but clever fielding on the
part of the Danburyites held Ely at
third. At this stage of the game
Catcher Hand, one of the Pacer
club's best finds, came along with a
timely swat. It was in the form of
a sacrifice fly to left, on which Ely
scored the winning run. Try as they
would, the Hatters were unable to
push a run across in the closing half
of the ninth.
Charley Meara distinguished him
self with a wonderful one-handed
catch of a long fly in left in the Haf
ters half of the sixth inning, thereby
robbing the home club of a seeming
ly sure run and saving the day for
the Pacer team. The score:
Edgar, cf

ATLANTIC LEAGUE NOTF:S
C'an't see it. The Perth Amboy
NEWS says lied Shufelt is regarded
the best shortstop in the league.
For the first fault, we claim he
doesn't hit.—Newburgh Journal.
You're off your base on that kind
of chatter, Mr. Sporting Writer, lied
Shufelt is an excellent hitter. Only
in the last two games against the
league-leading Cubans he secured
four hits out of six trips. He batted
1.000 in the first game against Long
Branch on Monday.
* φ *
If post season dope counts for any
thing the Newburgh team of the At
lantic league intends to join the New
York state league next season, If it
can get in.
If I'oughkeepsie also succeeds in
getting a state league franchise,
Newburgh will find itself hooked up
with McCabe, the very thing most
teams in this league would desire to
avoid.
Surface Indications all around
point to a very general breaking of
the Atlantic circuit next season,
especially if the Hatters can get into
the Eastern association.—Danbury
News.
Present indications are that Perth
Amboy will lie represented in a New
Jersey state league next year. It is
not likely that there will be an At
lantic l.eague after this year. In
the proposed Mosquito league Ne.v
Brunswick, Plainfield, Elizabeth,
Monmouth county and some cities In
the extreme northerly part of the
state would probably be entered.
* * *
Changes in Newburgh's lineup are
now said to be under way. Skipper
Eley lias departed and Tod has a
youngster named Dwyer, who was
here earlier in the season, coming
back for the outfield, and a swap
with Danbury may be pulled, accord
ing to the Newburgh News.
* * *
After the treatment they received
in Danbury, when a mob assaulted
them, the Bugs have no particular
love for the Hatters and tbeyVl
"play their heads off" to win over
Landgraf's crew. — Poughkecp te

TWO FORFEITS
GIVEN AGIST
ï. M. G. H TEAM
Special to the ΚΤΣΝΙΝΟ NEW8.
South Amboy, Sept. 2:—At a
meeting held in Sayre & Fisher's hall
at Sayreville Monday night, the mag
nates of the South Shore League
tacked two forfeits on the local Y. M.
C. Α., the team that is leading the
league. The local boys believe that
it is the same old stunt of "trying to
down the leaders," since they believe
the forfeits were not merited. One
of these forfeits goes to the credit of
the South Amboy terra cotta team,
and the other to the Middlesex Em
broidery crew.
August 8 was the day scheduled
for the game between the Middlesex
Embroidery team and the Y. M. C.
Α., but this being "Old Home Day,"
the local team found it impossible to
play ball, and accordingly notified
the Sayreville manager, even inviting
the members of the team to come to
this city as the guests of the associa
tion for the celebration and be en
tertained by them.
The Y. M. C. A. has not met with
a defeat this year, but if these two
games are placed on the losing side
by the league officials, it will consid
erably lessen their percentage and
place them within a few points of
the runner-up, the Middlesex Em
broidery team.
All hands ought to be on hand
tomorrow. The Pacers are a good
club. Split even with us this week
and if Dicky-boy Sprigman pegs as
lie did Thursday, it's all off with,
Tod's Uhlans. The battle will be at:
Glen wood.—New burgh Journal.
Hackensack, Sunday — George'
Lowe, a pitcher of the Newburgh
team of the Atlantic League, came
here today to pitch for the Young
Men's Club of Ridgefleld Park j
against the Hackensack Field Chib I
in a local league contest. He allow-'
ed only one hit and the Young Men's
Club won by 5 to 0. The Field Club
will protest tlie game because of|
Lowe's presence
Sheaffer's work must not be over-1
looked. Ramsey has a saleable,
article in that pegger.
Hank Ramsey, known wherever
the pastime is played, did a lot of
fuddling around O'Hara yesterday.
Hank lias two or three very good
prospects. Sheaffer for instance
pairs with any of the league's pitch
ers and Shankey, his first l)a3ema:i,
is the best man on that job in the
circuit. Shankey will never stop
until he reaches the big show.—New
burgh Journal.
A meeting of the league magnates]
will be called in New York City tliisi
week to take some action on tliej
Asbury Park crisis, as to tile forfeit- |
ing of the bond and the division of
the money. At this meeting changes!
will also probably be made in the
schedule, so that other teams may !
finish out the season, which ends on !
Monday, September 7, Labor Day. — |
Newburgh Journal.

Tom O'Hara, scout for Cincinnati,
was in Newburgh on Wednesday
watching Long George Lowe work.
The young twirler shut out Perth
Amboy in his usual slick manner,
and he is apt to be given a trial by
Herzog. He is also being looked !
over by scouts for Chanco and Eb
bets.-—Pouglikeepsle Enterprise.

WHAT PITCHERS DIO IN THE
FRANKUN-ST. ANTHONY GAME
During the contest Neider pitched
thirty-two strikes over (he plate and
allowed thirty-two balls. Nineteen
of his offerings were fouled off by
the Franklin batsmen, and altogeth
er he made 106 pitches, or 11.6 in
an inning.
"Apple's" record is also an effec
tive one. Although he pitched nine
ty-six times during the game, he
worked in one less inning than the
Saints twirler, due to the fact that
the St. Anthonys did not take their
turn at bat in the ninth. He put
over thirty-five strikes, twenty-six
balls, and thirteen of his pitches
were fouled, making an average of
twelve pitched balls an inning. The
Saints connected fairly with him
twenty-two times, but only reached
first ten times, one by a base on
balls, seven on hits, one on an error,
and one through a fielder's choice
play. Only six Franklins reached the
initial bag. Three of these made
safe hits and the other three reached
first through a base on balls, an
error by Stinson and a fielder's
choice.
"Mickey" Loeser made Applegate
work less than any of the other
Saints. Although he was at bat
four times, "Apple" only pitched six
times to him.
Grimes was the "foul king." Dur
ing his four times at bat he fouled
off eight times, live of them being
made In the eighth inning.

ËZIE IS RATED
AS POSSIBILITY
FOR BIG HONORS
Mike Mazie, who Is popularly
known among fight fans throughout
this section as the Staten Inland
whirlwind, is impressing leaders in
the pugilistic game as a promising
possibility for the lightweight cham
pionship honors of the world. He
has particularly impressed Freddy
Welsh, the present lightweight cham
pion. Welsh will be at the ringside
in the Stadium A. C. tonight to get a
better line oil the clever Staten
Islander.
Mazie will meet Jimmy Coffee, the
Harlem "Mohawk Indian," in one of
the three-round bouts. Welsh has
taken a strong fancy to Mike. They
met in England when Mazie was over
there with "Gunboat" Smith and Jim
Buckley. The two lightweighte
trained at the same gymnasium and
uparred with each other daily. The
Staten Island youth impressed Walsh
as being a promising championship
possibility.
Mazio is an exceptionally fast and
clever boxer, and Welsh declares
that it would not surprise him In the
least if he should be called upon to
defend his title against the challeng
ing hid of the Staten Islander within
a very short time.

MIDDIES SUNDAY
In the closing week of the Atlan

That will be next Sunday afternoon,
when they will stack forces against
the strong Middles for a double

with Danbury In the Hatters' town
this nfternoon. Tomorrow and Fri
day they will play at Poughkeepsle,

On Saturday afternoon the Itamsay
Gibian-Pfau aggregation will meet
Andy Coakley's Sea Urchins at As
bury Park.
Futile efforts have been made by
the owners of the Perth Auiboy club
to stage a big game or two here on
l.abor Day. The schedule provides
that the Pacers play morning and af
ternoon at Newburgh on Monday,
Labor Day. The Todlers inaist that
the engagement he lllled. As a result
the Franklins or 8t. Anthonys may
appear against a stiff opponent as a
