AN uMplRE's DECISION.

The decision causing a great rolnp-
us out at Gardner Park is an every
day occurrence in baseball both in
minor and major league circles
There are decisions rendered by UNI
pires Of various leagues Of the coun-
try by men who are doing the same
thing that Mr.. Taylor is doing every
day and there are times that their
decisions are SO rank, causing man
ayers and players to voice such siren
uous objections as to be banished
from parks and oftimes fight. An
umpire can see play more plainly
than an onlooker in the grand stand
or bleachers and every time a bali
looks like a strike it isn't a strike.
Our fans must learn the new art Of
pitching and cutting corners. The
umpire knows. Everyone knows that
Taylor is liberal to both sides alike
in his decisions.
