AMATEUR BASEBALL
RULES VIOLATED BY
MOST TEAMS HERE
Grounds for Protest to Com
mission in Nearly
/ Seventy Cases.

Since the opening of the amateur base
ball season May l, there have been no
less than seventy violations of the con-
stitution of the amateur commission,
and grounds for some siXty-five protests
of games played.
Of the eleven leagues under the COM
mission, not single one has escaped
without violation of the constitution
in that many teams are playing men
who are ineligible to play on the teams.
The contribution states explicitly that
men must be registered under the COM
mission. This, in many instances, lis
entirely ignored by managers of teams
who have been picking up players at
will
Teams having more than twenty play
ers registered cannot use men over the
required number, yet such is done every
day.
Officials Are Informed.
Managers, secretaries, presidents, and
officials of the leagues, have been duly
apprised Of these facts by H. V. Shurt-
left. secretary Of the commission, who
says he is tired of being ignored, and
is ready to quit unless something radi-
cal is done with the situation.
Managers who have followed the law
are justified in protesting the games lost
by them against teams playing in
eligible men, and promises are made to-
day that action will be taken in the
near future. fragrant violations of the
constitution are daily occurrences. Play
ers are dropped by managers and played
the same day the secretary of the COM
mission receives notice.
In one instance the manager Of a team
has been playing on team when ne
is not registered with the team as
player.
In all sixty-ive games may be pro-
tested by manager If they will take the
trouble to look them up. Secretary
Shurtlen has, in each instance of illegal
games, notified the officials of the
league. and in some cases has had mat
tiers Strengthened out at once.
Standings to Be Affected.
1t would appear that games lost un-
der lprotest would play an important
part in the standings later in the sea-
son. While the constitutions of the di(-
ferent leagues under the commission are
different in some respects, there is uni
1ormity in having the same number on
each team. There is also uniformity in
registering under the commission, and
the matter has been taken up by the
secretary since the first offense.
Just what will be done cannot be
are made Immediately trouble will be
experienced before long. The only rem
edy seems TO lie with the individual
managers, who should be mace to keep
straight lists and report changes i'm
medi&tely to the commission.

Eastern High School today Is finding
considerable consolation in having es-

series, while Business holds the undis-
puted possession of the tail end in the
Interhigh School League.
These two teams played yesterday at
the r. r. Y. M. c. A. field and the game
developed into one Of the best contests
of the season. Eastern winning by to /,

Killers the worst sort Of a scare In the
final inning. With two runs needed in
the ninth, Business made one, had an
other man thrown out at the plate and
had three left on the bases when the
final batter was retired.
There was little to choose between
Derrick and Lyon, the rival pitchers
although the latter was favored by
being backed up by the Eastern bunch
playing more baseball than their OPP
ponents.
The batting feature was Woods home
run drive, which gave Business its first
tally, while Defandorf made a running
catch Of Hunteman's long fly.

Although Barnes, Of B. & O., pitched
an excellent game, holding Southern to
six hits, his teammates handed the
game away, and B. & o. lost by to 6.
Southern got but four hits, which
were opnortune, considering the fact
that B. & Q. was kind enough to make
errors which helped.
That the games are better in view of
the changes made in the league is the
opinion of every fan. There should be
many good games from now on, and the
on the wise move.
Strobe got half the hits allotted his
team. It is seldom that this PLAYER can
not connect safely once or twice in a
game.
Car Department and Union Station
play this afternoon. and it is expected
that. as no high school game is on the
boards, the teams will be able to get
nine full innings in the result.
Both the fielding and hitting have
been of color during the week. Results
show the league to be well stocked with
pitchers of ability. The fielding has been
poor, and the three games showed no
less than thirty stolen bases recorded.
Should Car Department annex today's
game, a tie for first place will he estab-
lished. Many are claiming the race will
be a close one all season. B. & o. lost
out Yesterday on errors, and all games
to date have been remarkably close.
