WHEN UMPIRE LYNCH
erred TWICE
BILL LANCE SAYS NEW MA.
TioNAl LEAGUE PRESIDENT
WAS NOT PERFECT JUDGE
Did Tom Lynch ever err?-

You can't be blamed for asking the
question. To read the stories written
and hear the stories told of the old
time umpire who was made presiden,
of the National League would give
anyone the impression that here was
the perfect man. The perfect Judge
Of plays on the field. The perfect Judge
of players off the field The umpire
who never erred in calling a strike
or ball and the man who could tell
to the inch whether the runner was
out or safe.
But did Thomas j. Lynch ever err ?
It's a cinch he did. Bill LANCE, who
formerly swatted the ball in this vi
entity. tells corking story Of how
Lynch erred twice i'm an inning and
tells the story Of the game.
1t was like this said Lange out
In California.

where a man whose own performances
with the pen are known to be wretch

upon penmanship.
The accusation is not unthinkable.
The Register had occasion not very
many years ago to publicly condemn
a text book adopted for this state
which contained state historical mat
ter so much out of date as to falsify
the facts. A well-known educators
name appeared as author of the por-
ton relating to this state. Unques-
tionably, he was sponsor rather than
author of the treatise. The passages
criticised were subsequently amended
so as to be more in accord with actual
conditions. ~.
It is said that certain text books
gotten out as productions OF Virginia
educators have been discovered, SUBJ
stantially the same in text, as produc-
lions bearing the names of Alabama

happens to be as in Mississippi, a
treatise on penmanship. Another is a
more pretentious work, on Civil Gov

it for the use of our schools.
