Los Angeles "fans" all have kindly rec
objections of Glenalvin, who will be remem-
bered as the captain and second baseman
of the only real professional baseball club
ever maintained in this end of the state,
under the management of George Wander
beck, now of Detroit. Glen" was good
ball player and u great favorite with the
public. but on more than one occasion his
very hasty temper came near getting him
into serious trouble. He was "kicker
from wayback," and at times got danger
ously near the line of blackguardism but
his faults were overlooked because of his
sterling worth on the diamond. From the
appear that "Glen's" temper does not i'm
prove with age. the Ebrght referred to
also being well known in Los Angeles
Robert J. Glenalvin, the second base
man, manager and one of the owners of the
Grand Rapids club, became incensed at
Umpire Epright during one of the games
at indianapolis for calling strike on one
of his players and abused that official in
shameful manner. For this offense he
was ordered out of the game, and, when
ne persisted IN his abuse policeman
led out of the park, he shouted to Umpire
Ebright: II will have your head for this"
Glenalvin probably realizes the enormity
of the offense he committed against the
decency and dignity of the game which
provides him with an investment for his
money and livelihood, and, 1t is hoped,
regrets his inexcusable rashness. A repe-
tition of such conduct SO prejudicial to
discipline and decorum should subject him
to severe penalties by the Western league.
If an umpire is incompetent or dishonest,
let him be removed after proper presenta-
tion of these facts to President Johnson.
Umpire Ebright deserves credit for refus-
ing TO be buldozed by club owner and his
flrmness in dealing with Glenalvin shows
that he possesses one of the qualifications
Of good umpire. Mr.. Glenalvin has yet to
demonstrate that he can control himself.
and until he succeeds In so doing he will
never be able to handle a winning baseball
team.
The merchandise shoot Of the Los Ange-
les Gun club took place yesterday at the
