All games won by the Hagers-
town club OF the Blue Ridge League
from June Is to June % were order
ed played over by the league offici-
ais at stormy session held in that
city Wednesday afternoon. Only
after clubs threatened to withdraw
did the officials of the local club
agree TO yield.
Hagerstown was convicted Of
carrying more than three players
who had been in league higher
than Class D and a fine of 800 was
assessed. Not satisfied with this pen
atty, representatives at the meeting
threatened to withdraw from the
league if the games which Hagers-
town won were not played over.
Rather than see the league broken
up, officials of the Hagerstown club
yielded and virtually agreed to
waive all rights as contender for
the pennant.
For hours the representatives
hattled and the discussions were
lively and heated. Club after club
threatened to withdraw If Hagers-
town were not ordered to play the
games over. Although the matter
had been settled and the fine paid,
President Boyer, OF the Hagerstown
Club agreed to make the sacrifice.
This action will throw Hagers-
town into last place. These contests
will be played in douIble-headers in
the towns where the previous games
were won.
The Blue Ridge officials at pre-
vious meeting had ruled that
team could not carry more than
three players who have been in
league higher than Glass D. Hagers-
town, it was found, carried five
players and accordingly a fine was
imposed
1t was also decided that the lea
que could not carry bench mana
ger, which means that Manager
Mike Mowrey, of Hagerstown, will
either have to resign or play in the
games.
A revised standing of The clubs
IN the league will be issued in few
days by President Jamison. Those
present from the various clubs in
the league were: Hanover, R. T.

LACK HURLEY TO GO

It was announced last night after
"a conference between Manager
Mowery and President Boyer Of the
Hagerstown Club, that Jack Hurley,
first baseman would be the class
man to go. MANAGER Mowery last
night asked permission to resign,
disguised with the come OF the
meeting. hut the eltlre Champs
team, to man, refused to go on
the field tomorrow if he quit, fore
fng the willy old manager to stay
with them. It was impossible to re-
lease either OF the other class men,
as Gardner had been purchased by
the Hagerstown club and was

Dysert could not be taken out OF
the outfieId for the Champs have
great need Of outfelders, so the
only possible man was Jack Hurley
who was asked to remain free until
Saturday morning by which time the
club will know whether or not they
STAY with the Blue Ridge League.
After the stand made by the Ha-
gerstown officials at the meeting
yesterday we thought them fine

fee in order to stand in the strong
Tight of being right,-evidently,
though, the fans of Hagerstown are
of a different calibre, as the fol

CAS- a protest against the action
of the league officials 703 fans last
night signed a petition not to at
tend another game of baseball here
until the order throwing out the
ten games HagerstOwn won is re-
scinded. The petition us circulated
last evening as soon as the inform
sections of the city little groups of
fans gathered and it was the sole
topic of conversation Then the Pc
tition was started around and ev-
eryone grabbed it. They are deter

money to see ball games and they
