Out Wilson Games Rocky
Mount and Wilson VIII Ask
Judge Lands to Reopen
Baseball Questions.

Yesterdays daily papers, as do
those of today, carry lengthy state
ments of the action of Judge Landis
in reversing the decision of the Va.
League directors in awarding the first
half pennant to Rocky Mt, and of his
decision handing the bunting over to
Portsmouth. Charges were preferred
against both Wilson and Rocky Mt,
for being over the salary limit in
the first half, and although both of
these teams were higher in the
League standing than was Ports
mouth, Judge Lands has given it as
his opinion that Portsmouth seem
ingly lived within the provisions of
the Virginia League constitution and
that she should be awarded the pen
nant for the first half.
ON the other hand the evening and
morning papers carried lengthy state
ments coming from Portsmouth, and
presumably given out by Frank
Lawrence, to the effect that he had
talked with President Bradley over
Hong distance, and that President
Bradley had stated that in view OF
the decision handed down by Judge
LaEdis in regard to the first half
that he would use the power vested
in him to throw out all games won
