Of atrocities TO them-but not hair on

that sort of thing, think il got on their

Never have l seen Cincinnati boil and
bubble as il seethed during this series.
Think of it-15,000 out o., Friday

every corner on Saturday and the house
sold out long in advance for Sunday.

The attendance for the three games
must have been 10000. Compare the
population of Cincinnati with that of
New York or Chicago, or even Phila
delphia, Boston or 81. Louis, and figure
what such an outpouring, on the per
centage of population basis, would mean
in those cities. In New York il would
mean that 100000 bugs would try 20

Bill Donovan Hands
Out Few Words
About the Umpires

Bill Donovan, now managing the Jer-
sey City team, has something to say
about umpires. Among his observations
are the following points,
1.-The ex-piayer is bad umpire be
cause he is always figuring plays out
before they are completed. lie knows
what ought to happen on certain kinds
of hits or in certain situations. And
he makes up his mind in advance on
his decisions.
He cannot help this. A player is
always thinking ahead of the play This
is so even if he is sitting on the bench
watching the game.
when veteran player gets to be an
umpire, therefore, he cannot be expected
TO change his complete baseball thinking
process. He cannot do so. And he is
invariably bad umpire
at is a mistake TO make umpires out
of veteran players. Young men should
be secured. When they get ON in years
they should be replaced, as ball players
are.
"Under the present scheme of things
the umpiring in the major leagues is
mediocre. 1 II bet there are not five
umpires on the combined staff of the
National and American leagues who can
read a newspaper without wearing eye
glasses
