Arbitration Board of City
League Disallows
the Protest.

The NiilIers's kick did not carry. The
FL PasO City league board OF arbitra-
ton, headed by president Art Woods,
Wednesday afternoon disalloWed the
protest Of the July II game made by
the Aillers as result OF a Wrangle with
umpire Lortz over decision which ad-
vanced I'D infantry batter to first
base
While it is admitted that LOrtz's de-
eisiOn was in error. the technical ques-
ton being whether TO give a base or q
ball TO the batter on a balk by the
pitcher, it was not deemed proper by
by the board to allow a protest on the
entire game. The decision effected the
first batter up, with none down. and
the batter so advanced by the umpire
was put out before subsequent runs
were scored
In the inning in question the Army
made four runs, winning the game.
which was rife with Wrangling and
which led to high disgust on the part
of the fans and the creating of strict
new rules by the league officials. In
making the decision the board took in
to consideration the complaint of other
teams that the MilleFs on that Sunday
placed a ringer" in the box. a profess
siOnaI ball player passing through the
city, and in spite of this lost the game
fairly and squarely- The Army team
only protested the ringer" after the
