Too much credit cannot be given
Wynkoop. the Tucson umpire, for II
was due to his excellent management
and enforced discipline that there
wasn't a harsh word throughout the
game. not a contested decision nor
even a protest. He was Johnny with a
good eye and always on the spot Not
only did he watch the game but he
did much toward keeping back dis
order on the side lines where the

ground. There was hut one incident
OF disorder and II is pleasing to note
that ii was merely a rooters' fight In
which no person Interested in either
team was concerned Sami Murphy
whose roofing was not only vigorous
but impoiite in that he tried to crawl
over and ON top of everybody else,
after pursuing these tactics for an
hour. was finally called by another
young man named Loeb. Murphy
came back with a threat. Loeb landed.

game. The day was perfect and hopes
ran high. To say truly il was good
game. but it might easily have been
so much better that il seemed too bad.
The victors played all around the
home team and vet most of the time
they played but a shade better. In the
very beginning Phoenix made a flash
that looked good. Then for several
innings it ran along closely. the Phoe-
nix catcher getting a little more ner-
vous and unsteady. until along about
the seventh when the visitors grabbed
the crayOn and the slate and didn't
do a thing but mark it all up their
way. There was one spot in the mid
die Of the game when Phoenix stock
rose again. A couple of fine hits fill
ed up the bases and a man scored with
the future looking roseate and only
one dead one. Then came a most un-
lucky double play by which the Tue
son second baseman. unassisted. put
two men out and killed the Phoenix
