NEAR RIOT ALMOST
 SPELLS FINISH TO
 SUNDAY BALL GAME
Nettled By UmpireS Decision, Captain Anheier Calls GrayS off Field; c. & As. Return and Win n to 6.

In a game marred by tedious delay caused by a tot of childish kicking" and umpire batting on the part of Cap. tain A. Anbeier and several others of the Grays, the C. X A. team defeated the Boosters Il to 6 Sunday afternoon at Warren Park. In the second ses. sion. when the most serious difficult ties occurred. a premature suspen- sion of hostilities seemed imminent and only the advices from cooler and. it might almost be said. "gamier' heads. caused a continuation of play
 lt Is just such demonstrations Of childish stubbornness and unwilling ness Co abide by the decisions Of the umpire, which are going a long way towards spelling the sport at Warren Park. Many fans at Sundays game. after witnessing the exceedingly schoolboyish delay of the game. em. phatically declared that they would withhold their patronage from the games in the future unless some very radical change of attitude of some of the players took place
 Ball players who have been in the game for any reasonable length of time, must be fully aware of the fact that the umpire is permitted to change his decisions only when it is shown that he has erred on a point of rules and not when it has been simply his judgement, on what has taken place on the field. which was in error Therefore, it is merely childish stub bornness which permits a player to go so far as Co refuse 10 continue to play because a decision goes against him or his team.
 The trouble in Sundays game oc- cured in the second inning when the Boosters tied the score with two tal- lies. Kemp opened with a triple. Hodges went out on a grounder to first Kemp being held at third Boat was passed and stole second. Kemp was caught at the plate, Garrett to Fuller. Then the trouble started. F. Jeuck rolled out a grounder towards second and Boat dashed for home. be- ing declared safe. From the bench he appeared to be caught but the ball rolled from Fuller's hands. That gen. tleman proceeded to protest in vigor- ous tefms against the decision Of the umpire In the meantime the neglect ed pill rolled to one side and Jeuck. noting that Catcher Fuller was more occupied with his argument than with the immediate progress Of the game continued toward the plate and was permitted to reach his destination un. hindered. His umps" averred that both runners were safe
 Immediately the honorable arbitra. tor was surrounded by a group of pro. testing Grays, led by Captain Anheier Catcher Fuller took a prominent part in the action. while two police officers stood close at hand lest the melee as sume more serious proportions than that of a verbal commotion Catcher Fuller's version of the case seemed tC be that Boat had deliberately thrown the ball to one side Captain Anheiel declared that he had stood for punk umpiring as long as hs cared to ana he ordered his men frSn the field and strode in gigantic wrath to the dress ing room. For some minutes or more it seemed that the Grays' doughty lead CT would maintain his refusal to con tinue. Catcher Fuller should al least receive credit for more gameEess than some of his teammates for 1t was hi, pursuasiye eloquence which finally in duced Captain Anheier to return tC the field of action
 As for the game itself which was completely overshadowed by the ex hibition of stubborn child" charac
