to double out Means al second AS it
was he touched second. which would
have forced Means out and as HummeI
stopped running he was also out How

put Hummel out and that, therefore,
Means was not out. Manager Black CON
tended that double play had been ac-
complished and that both men were out

test. Had the Occidentas lost the game
would have been protested and III Black
was upheld the game would have been
