Undoubtedly one of the strongest cards
that the Virginia League has for the
coming season is its STAFF OF umpires. Al
least that is the promise now. but all
things connected with baseball are as
uncertain as mule.
There Is no doubt that the League has
suffered much heretofore, because OF
tho incompetency OF its umpire system.
This trocblc it IS hoped. will be obviated
this season.
Mr.. William G. Belts is the chief OF
umpires, and he has appointed two most
able assistants, Mr. Edward NJ. Cbne end
Mr.. George Wood.
Mr.. Belts will have entire and complete
control of the umpire5 and everything
relating 10 them.
As Mr.. Belts is in no way nteretted
in any club, this viii do away wo,h the
accusations Of Partially that were so
frequently made last season. The inter

and he will do all in his power 10 advance

In regard TO the question OF fines,
will say that only five and ten dollar

will have TO be paid. and by the player,
