REVENGE IS SWEET FOR BOOSTERS WHO
 TRIM GRAYS g ID S
Umplring Is so Poor t lnieCts Real Comedy Element; Arb- tiers Should Seek Position As Water Boys.

Before pretty fair crowc a, War ren sunday. the Grays suffered de- feat at the hands of the Boosters in hard fought battle With the ex- ception of the most ridiculous at- tempt at umpiring that has ever been pulled off in this district. the game was good exhibition Of baseball Both pitchers delivered the goods. Ross or the Boosters having a shade the best Of the areument
 This southpaw showed real class continually working the corners Of the plate and having perfect control with the exception Of the sixth inn ing. when three clean hits, wild heave and pass. netted the Grlys five runs.
 Bennallack pitched a fine game as whole. occasionally slipping @ tri- fie, due to the continual 'beefing" he was getting from his catcher. who was handing out a line of stuff that would have unsettled early in the game. a less cool pitcher It was ex- tremely poor judgement On Fuller's part. and was bound to have an un- settling effect on Bennaliack.
 Now for the umpiriug These two Jones and Lyons produced a sample of deciding on strikes and balls as well as decisions on bases. that is rarely seen here or anywhere else. Time and again both strikes and balls were mis-calied by each, while neither seemed possessed Of convincing judge mcnt at any time
 An example of their wonderful abili- ty Go make wrong decisions was dem- onstrated with Gooch at bat This batter had two strikes and three balls called on him. He had already "baaled out' the umpire and as the second strike was called be turned and handed Iones a line of vocal py- rotechnics that was good to listen Co. lt had its effect, The next and de- ciding ball pitched was as perfect a strike as could be thrown Gooch simply stepped back and looked at Jones. Jones said four balls"
 Lyons, although claiming to have played pretty fast bah for 12 years showed the most marvelCusly rotten exhibition Of efficiency on base run ming decisions Chat could be imagined one of which produced a long drawn out howl of protest from the entire aggregali0n of fans when he called Champion out at first after the base man had dropped the ball and was not within three feet of the base when Frank reached it
 Jones and Lyons might be perfectly good as bat boys, or for that matter might successfully Keep the water buckets supplied with fee. but they certainly ought not to be allowed to attempt umpiring
 But take 1t an through the game was one of the best played here this season It is by no means certain. but it is the opinion of many. that had Benuallack been replaced tn the sixth. with either Baugh or Deerdorf the Grays would have won out
 The Boosters started their half or the game with two runs. securing two more in the second. They didn't score again until the fifth when they gathered in two more. Tn the Gray's half of the sixth things began to move Fuller pushed out @ single followed by Anheier with another. Champion walked. Gault popped out a Texas Leaguer scorige Fuller Jordan de- livered three-bagger to the good cause. and himself trotted home on Bennallack's out at first The score
