good work, aided by fast fielding, in
cludlng several double plays. The
game was prolonged and the Colonels
given life through numerous question
aole plate decisions on balls and strikes

When the game started in extra in

1t is not often Harrisburg fans
blame the loss of game to an UNI

as they did yesterday. local patrons
nave a right to kick. But for the
iact that the season is near the end,
Harrisburg Club officials and others
would enter vigorous protest against
umpire Pirman. His work has been
severely criticised all season, but dur
ing the past week 1t has been of such
a character that not a few patrons
have left the grounds and vowed they
would not attend a game where Pfir-
man otficiated.
Harrisburg was not in a timely hit

pitching in best form. Either of these
two shortcomings would not have lost

Just decisions. 1t was on balls and
strikes that Pfirman was woefully
weak. Both sides suffered, but on two
occasions Elmira hitters were given
life, reached base through rank de-
cisions, and scored. At times the de-
clsions were so ridiculous that even
the Elmira players smiled.
While on the questio of umpires. it
might be timely to suggest that in re-
organization of the Farrell League for
next season close attention be given
IN the selection of indicator men. They
have been a whole lot responsible for
the lack of interest in ball games
Clothed with authority to prevent un-
necessary kicking and rowdyism, they

BROOKLYN IN BAD SHAPE
Setcial 10 thc Tclccrath

Cincinnati, Ohio. Aug. 26. - Jake
Daubert, the star of the Dodgers, may
not play another game this year. The
first baseman and batting leader in
the National League is suffering from
wobbly legs. Both pedals seem to
have given out completely There is
slight possibility, in the opinion of
doctors, that Daubert may be able to
get back, in the lineup within ten
days. If he does, it is likely that he
won't be of real value to the club.
