Protest Sustained.

A communication from President
Jewell, of the Susquehanna League,
states that the Havre de Grace club
protested the game played with
Perryville on Aug. 21, and that the
protest has been sustained.
The protest hinged on permanent
ground rule, made at the beginning
of the season, owing to a shcrt right
field. The umpire was unaware
of the ground rule and allowed
Perryville player a home run on
ball hit over right field fence. This
gave Perryville the game by a score
of to 1. AS the ground rule was
a permanent one, and had been ap-
proved by the League, the President
sustained the protest of Hayre de
Grace and directed that the game be
played over on or before September
1, 1920.
The game does not appear in the
standing of the clubs and will not be
placed to the credit of Perryville.

Warming To Auto Owners.

Automobile owners are cautioned
against the practice of leaving Ii
cense cards in their cars. Motor car
thieves, the police asserted, fnd il
easy to establish Identification and
show evidence of car ownership
when they are in possession of Ii
cense cards bearing motor numbers
that correspond with those on the
car.
Many motorists carry their license
cards in the side pockets of their
cars or under seats, thereby making
it easy for thieves to throw officers
off the trail of stolen motors.
The police urge motorists to carry
their license cards in their clothing,
and under no circumstances leave
the cards in the car.
