ANNUAL ASSOCIATION OUTINGJ'ROVES A HAPPY AFFAIR
Local Publishers and Their Friends Show That Hits Can Be Obtained on Baseball Diamond Much
Easier Than in Business—Also Display Great Eating Ability—"Jazzes" Win
The third annual outing of the Greater New
York Music Publishers' and Dealers' Associa-
tion, which was held on Tuesday of last week,
at the Massapequa Inn, Massapequa, L. I.,
was a huge success from every angle and pleased
the officers of the association and those who
attended immensely. Owing to a number of
publishers being on the sick list and others be-

ing compelled to stay at their desks by business,
the crowd was not quite as large as expected.
However, there was a full sightseeing car and
a number of private automobiles that were taxed
to capacity on the way out and during the
afternoon a number of association members ar-
rived by train.
Maurice Richmond, who was taking some
friends out in his auto, had the misfortune to get
two punctures, which delayed his party some
time, but luncheon was also delayed until their
arrival, much to Mr. Richmond's pleasure.
Before lunch a number of the men spent
their time playing quoits and a very "exciting"
game resulted. The luncheon proved to be very
appetizing
and
every one left well
satisfied. Immedi-
a t e 1 y
following
lunch the feature
of the outing, a
baseball game, was
commenced. Sides
were chosen, cap-
tained by George
Bliss and Walter
Eastman.
The
Bliss t e a m was
O n Their
nicknamed
the
"Jazzes" and the Eastman team was given the
name "Blues." The game was very spirited
throughout and the score was a surprise to the
players themselves. The "Jazzes" won, carry-
ing the honors to the tune of 10 to 6.
Immediately following the ball-game, the
party entrained in autos and proceeded to the
bathing beach. Upon the return of the party
every one proceeded to the refreshment pavilion
where "Grandfather" Priaulx had previously
made arrangements which met everyone's ap-
proval and which included the payment for all
the joy water by the genial treasurer of the as-
sociation, Joe Glassmacher.
Dinner was served promptly at six-thirty and
ball almost to the Boy Scout camp, about five
hundred feet away. Mr. Conrow only went into
the game during the last few innings, leading
his teammates to believe that if they had had
him sooner they would have won the game.
J. T. Roach continues to be the star catcher
of the publishing field. He also continues to
worry the opposing pitchers with his bat.
L. M. Weippert, who pitched the game for the
"Jazz" team, is also some little Hindu with the
stick.
Alfred Cantor, son of J. A. Cantor, proved
an effective pitcher for the first few innings.
That fellow Chas. Schloss, of the R. F. Wood
Co., is some ball player.
Those who attended the outing included Jo-
seph Glassmacher, George H. Bliss, C. H. Peters,
W. Kraft, J. M. Priaulx, L. M. Weippert, M.
Pearlman, Frank Flynn, C. A. Keller, Hamilton
A. Gordon, George Fischer, John Maher, C. A.
Cantor, J. T. Roach, Alfred Cantor, Felix Mayer,
Walter Eastman, Maurice Richmond, Michael
Keane, W. H. Coghill and others.

That the Motion Picture Exhibitors League

was voted the best shore dinner the association
ever had the pleasure of enjoying.
During both the luncheon and the dinner a
Jazz band made the air lively with music and
was irresistible at times, causing a number of
very "dignified" publishers to fox-trot and one-
step.
On the whole, 'twas a grand day.
The game was closely contested, as the score
shows, and was remarkable for the absence of
errors.
The name given the Walter Eastman team
("Blues") was appropriate, as the result shows.
After the third inning a number of the fair
sex viewed the game from the side lines, caus-
ing the players to make special efforts to please.
George H. Bliss made one of the sensational
plays of the game when he caught a foul on the
run, near third base, and juggled it several times.
C. H. Peters, who played first base for the
"Jazz" team, proved some little ball player,
making a number of plays which would have
done credit to a professional.
Arthur Conrow, of the Connorized Music Co.,
made the longest hit of the game, knocking the
