season.
GUSTS still has his 'foghorn" voice with
him His manner of giving decisions at

time to inquire whether there is any
chance to kick. Custis is square umpire
and he was warmly applauded when he
took his position on Saturday.
Hainesport went to Vincentown, on

inning was to O, but the Riverside boys
got one run in the seventh and another in

staying home, the offer was accepted.

Jimmy" Berry started to umpire the
game, on Saturday, but he could not
stand the roasting" given him, and at

tainly out. Even umpires In the large
leagues do not always strike 1t right, and
Berry may be as liable as any one to see
wrong sometimes. As general rule he
