There was rather a ludicrous scene at
Indianapolis the other day. During a game
between the boosters and the St Paul team
Comiskey and Shugar VINO is now playing
with the Phillies, became obnoxious toward
the umpire, and they were ordered off the
field. Both refused to go, and the umpire
called policeman, who took Commy by
the arm and led him off the field. Shugart
however. was not willing prisoner. When
the policeman, who was of the Bill Jordan
order. weighing nearly three hundred
pounds. advanced upon him he took to his
heels and started around the park. The
large copper gave chase The trained ath-
lete, of course, had all the best of the
sprint. The copper would run about fifty
feet, then walk. and Shugart would follow
suit. The Indianapolis park is very large
one, and Shugart made the copper run him
all around the park before he would SUBJ
init to be taken off the field. Large beads
Of perspiration were flowing down the off,
GERS face when he finally was allowed to
grab Shugart. 1t was funny sight, and
the crowd enjoyed 1t.
