irish "umpsy Have Best Luck

If YOU ever think of becoming an
umpire and want to get flying start,
adopt some good Irish name.
No nationality has been more sue
cessful than the sons of Erin in
handling the difficult position. Many
league presidents, in considering a
mans application for a job as umpire,
glance at his name before even look
ing over his reference.
Practically three-fourths of the
umpires in the different major and
minor leagues are Irishmen. Paul
Steinberg, who umpired in the 0. and
p a few years ago and worked In the
Connecticut league last year, is the
only Hebrew willing to take chance
on the arbitrating game.
Take the American league staff
for instance. OF the six members
Sheridan, Connolly. Egan, OLaugh'
lin and Hurst are Irish, while the
other member, Evans, is Welsh. The
two new men who enter the league

celebrate on st. Patrik's day in a fit
ting manner.
Hank O'Day is the leading member
of tae National league staff and hes
every bit Irish. Jim tombstone and
Clarence Owen are also partial to the
color of green Billy Klein and CA
Rigler are Germans, while the veteran
Bob Emelie is Canuck.
The American association beast:
