PROTEST
. NOT 4 5000 ONE
Umpire stayton Says ornellas Left
Second Base After Akana's
Throw Had Passed zap.

A merry war Of words has arisen over
the fling Of protest by Manager Man,
uel Paresa of the Portuguese Athletic
Club over last Sundays game between
the All.Ohinese and r. A. C's being
awarded to the former. In the protest
filed by the manager Of the p. A. CPS,
Il is claimed that Joe Ornellas should
have been allowed TO score in the eighth
inning when Lang Akana threw poorly
to third base after having caught
Sloan's fly TO the outheld.
Umpires Norris stayton and George
Bruins, in discussing the play in ques-
ton, state thar Ornellas did not leave
second base until after the throw, had
gone by Third Baseman zap and as it
was, was entitled to but one base on
such a play, Captain Stayton, who Is
the umpire in chief, sent 0rnellas back
to third base. At the present time, the
president Of the Oahu League il away
on a vacation and the deciding of the
protest must await his return, Still 10
the face of the declarations Of the UNI
pires, Paresa has no grounds for pro-
test and il is not likely that President
Peters will reverse any decisions of his
umpires. ksS IL.
As to the contentious of the p. A. G.
followers that should the protest be al.
lowed the team Il would not benefit
them much in the percentage column,
except that their record would still re-
main at four won and one lost, for
when a game is declared to have been
illegally won OF lost by team, il is
the rules of baseball that the game shall
be thrown out of the records and played
over again.
