Southern Will Haze -Four
Umpires-in-C Chief in I9

From another angle the plan will have
much toward making the staff Of UNI
ptres more satisfactory than in days
gone by AS things formerly stood,
neither Of the two arbitrators officiat-
ing at a game were umpires-in-chief
ana consequently they would not and
could not settle various mixups that
occurred on the bali lot, Many cases
occurred when a foul ball over a fence
would he called fair by a base umpire,
who wouldn't see 1t, and when the ball
players called on the umpire at the
plate to decide on It, he would say he
would have nothing to do with It, de-
spite the fact that he saw the play
and knew the decision Of the base UNI
pire was wrong,
With the new order of things, the
umpire behind the bat will be the UNI
pire-in-chief, and will not only have
the authority, but viii be- expected to
overrule the hase umpire at any time
he deems wise and proper. II the base
umpire should make u decision which
he umpire-in-chief deemed unfair or
unduly rank, II would be the duty Of
the umpire-in-chief to rectify the mis-
take by overriding the base umpire

monty known as the supreme court OF
baseball,
This made the national board merely
"A clearing house for the grievances Of
the minors because its decisions were
no more final than those of a justice of
the peace 1t therefore was a board OF
little dignity or Importance,
As things now stand, the national
board Of the National Association Of
Baseball leagues has full authority and
Is the supreme court Of minor league
baseball. There is no appeal from the
decision Of this board to the national
commission. The national board OF the
minors will be the sole court Of inquiry
and there VIII be no appeal from its
decision. 1t will have original, exclu-
sive and final jurisdiction over minor
league affairs.
At the New York meeting the. COM
mittee headed by AL Tearney, of the
Three Eye league, which had been ap-
pointed at the Peoria meeting Of the
minor leagues, reported in favor Of a
plan to abolish the national board Of
arbitration Of the minor leagues and in
substitution for this board to Vdemand
OF the major leagues a representative
on the national commission, such rep
resentative to be chosen by a vote of
the clubs composing the National AS
ISOLATION Of Baseball leagues, hat Is,
the Minor League association. The
MEMBER OF the natlOnat commission
thus chosen as representative Of the
minors was under the Tearney plan to
be the sole arbiter and judge and jury
In all minor league controversies, be-
tween clubs, and between clubs and
players, 1t was in opposition to this
plan that John d, Martin, president Of
the Southern league, got in action. He
opposed the Tearney resolution on the
ground that it was vicious to abolish
self-control Of the minors by their own
league presidents and would be vesting
too much power in the hands of one
man to give him supreme jurisdiction
over minor league baseball affairs.
