President Sexton has been called
upon to give n ruling on Umpire
Voris' decision in the Evansville
Davenport game at the former city
Saturday. 1t was the last half of the
ninth, two of Davenport's men were
out, and the score to in favor of
Evansville, when there was a row
over Evers interfering with a batted
ball. Voris called him out, and
Evansville left the field. Davenport
kicked on the decision, and Voris
changed it and forfeited the game 10
minutes after Evansville left the
grounds. The decision has been pro-
tested.
An error by Bloomington saved
Rockford another shut out Saturday.
Several Rock Island business men
active in the management of the Rock
Island baseball team have, it is un-
derstood, approached JUST Lindgren
with view to having him pitch for
the Rock Island team during the sum-
mer months, at least during some of
the games played on the home
grounds. Justi says that he could
not consider such a proposition. He
would then be classed as a profession
al, which would bar him as captain of
the Illinois football team.-Moline
Dispatch.
If Krsnz continues his present pace
it is not likely that he will get any
mail at Bishop Hill after this season.
The following bit of happy news
came over the wire to THE ARGUS today
from President Sexton, who is at De-
catur: Rather than lose the club
Dec atur has concluded to accept the
umpire assigned them and play ball. "

interested audience. The Lineup:
