outbreak occurred in the fourth in
ming. Stanley had singled and Clancy
was at the bat when something dis
pleased him and he stepped out of his
box to deliver an oraticn to the UNI
pire. While thus engaged Poole
pitched another strike and Fitzpatrick
called Clancy out. This so enraged
the player that he hurled the bat with
all his force into the diamond in the
direction Of the shortstop and then
started toward the bench amid Kisses
CT the spectators. Stanley, thinking
that Clancy had not disgraced the
team enough, applied a vile epithet to
TIE umpire and was promptly ordered
wraugling near the Pensacola players
bench. In which Fitzpatrick refused to
umpire unless Stanley was taken out
of the game. Sanchez was sent in to
umpire and Stanley allowed to con-
tinue in the contest. This SO incenssd
