1t was a bad day for Mays in every
respect, for not only were his under
hand slants pounded f1ightfully hard
but he also was wild, and Umpire Bill
KLEIN was struck down by one of CARTS
erratic shoots. The accident to KLEIN
occurred in the fourth inning, the ball
sailing past Holman, the Yankee
catcher, and hitting the umpire on the
left kneecap. KLEIN tried bravely to
stand after first aid had been rendered
by doctors and players, but was un-
able to walk and had to be carried
from the field.
The game was called at the beginning
of the ninth inning because of another
cushion riot similar to the one that
broke up the contest yesterday at Bir-
mingham. Luckily fandom hereabouts

for the soda containers which are so
numerous in these parts would work
havoc with heads and limbs.
