He didn't like the decision, however, and after he had grounded out he made sighting remarks about the rotten work of the umpires. When on his way to center field he passed me and, using abusive language, again gerated John son and myself as inefficient, etc. All the while he was calling us undesirable names.
 Al the end of the fourth inning sloan again passed me on his way
 to center field and used the same line of talk, cursing Johnson and
 myself generally. l spoke tO him, >-
 telling him to quit using that kind of language, and he became per sOnal, saying that he would like 1 to get smash at me. | walked 1 out on the diamond and he showed l me. Then we began mixing 1t, the players stopping us."
