Norman Sill, who presented an affidavit
on the Machinist-Steel Plant game on
Wednesday, brought to bear a few new
ones last night, but after reviewing both
sides Of the argument and Umpire Dick
Woodward's statement II was shown that
no new evidence was presented and the
board could find no reasons to reverse
the decision It made on last Monday
night.
Dick Woodward, who was the umpire in
this contest on July %, stated that after
Players Crooke and Zachary had been
expelled the Steel Plant team refused to
play and made no effort to continue play.
This statement practically settled all pro
and con at this meeting at President
Youngs ONCE, which lasted over two
hours.
The following statement was offered by
the board OF governors on the question:
After a full hearing and careful con-
sideration Of the forfeit game of July
2S between the Machinist Club and
the Steel Plant Club Of the Potomac
League, 1t appears that the game was
legally forfeited by the umpire and
the board can find no reason why its
former decision should be reversed.
Yours truly.
ROBERT H. YOUNG.

RIXEY IS BESTED;
REDS TRIM PILLS

Philadelphia, Aug u.-Cincinnati won
the last game OF the series here today,
to ?, under the most unusual circum
stances. With the Phillies one run be-
hind, they put runners on second and
first in the ninth inning. One was out.
Killifer drove long liner over Neale's
head to the bleachers' fence and Dugey
and Stock ran home with what were
thought to be the winning runs.
Umpire Rigler. however, ruled that a
fan leaning over the bleachers' fence
had slapped the bounding ball. Al
though had there been no interference
the two runs could easily have scored
anyway. Rigley sent Dugey back to
third, Stock TO second and awarded first
to killifer. Paskert batted for McQuil-
Ian ard famed, while the game ended
in victory for Cincinnati when Coop
er rolled to Loudon for a force of KILL
fer. The game will be protested by
