Whatever justification Umpire
Fleming had in putting Krsbs cut OF
the game in the ninth inning yester-
day his action certainly was unsports-
manlise. There are few umpires in
the Central Association today who
would have caused Krebs' removal
from the game in the face OF Belts

battle could not continue without him.
And even at that the ofense was such
8 slight one that it would have been
