THE DECIDING GAME

More gemixed than ever is the
status of the championship series
between the Ardmore and Paris
baseball clubs of the TO League,
and more dictatorial than ever is
the attitude of Red Snapp, chief
of the Paris beefers. But his hand
has been called. and ii is now up
to him whether the deciding game
Of the championship series will be
played in Ardmore MS it should
be, or whether petition will have
to he filed with the chief of the
minor leagues of America and
have the deciding game forfeited
to the local lads. The series as
il now stands is q tie with four
games credited to each club. The
next game is the deciding contest,
and it is the tie which was played
in Ardmorc last week and which
r!r.htfully belonged to the Peps,
but which Manager Sled Allen
permitted to slip through his
fingers when he treated the Pari.
slams with too much sportman-
shin. For it will be remembered
that at the end of the seventh In.
ming Of that game. il was dark,
i'm fact. dark enough for any UNI
pire with any kind Of judgment
and common sense To call, but the
game went on. and when the
Snappers tied the tally, and then
the second half Of the ninth In.
ming came up with the Pops at
bat. a man on first. and nobody
down, and naturally Red Snapp
called upon the game to be called,
lest the Peps win il. The umpircs,
supposedly in charge, but not
practically 50, displayed the great
weakness which is in them, and
permitted the Paris aggregation
to beef around and then beef some
>more until ii really was too dark
to continue, and then the game
was called.
But to get back to the matter
Of the deciding game. It is only
natural and according to the best
Of rules, that tie game be played
off in the city in which it was
tied. Naturally Snapp is stubborn
and desires that the game be play
ed at Paris, for with the aid Of the
semi-civilZed Paris fans, who take
the greatest of delight in throwing
pop bottles, pillows and other
junk on the diamond when the
Peps are in the field, the chances
for the Snapper victory are great
Reports from Paris state that the
actions of the Paris fans has been
such as would no doubt disgrace
a group Of Aborigines round
cannibalistic iamboree. An Ard
more fan who recently returned
from Paris states that reports cir
culating in the Texas city. are to
the effect that "the Paris ball
players were lucky to get away
with their lives" when they left
Ardmore at the close Of the last
series. The Parisians are no
doubt issuing such ridiculous and
false statements for the purpose
OF offsettng the barbarous man
ner in which they We're treating
the Peps.
Secretary Walter Thompson, Of
the Peps, is 10 be commended for
the stand he is taking in demand
ing that the deciding game be
played here. and he should stick
to that decision. Snapp haS buff
faloed the other clubs Of the cir
cult long enough and got away
with it. The Pops have long
enough tolerated the disgraceful
actions of the Paris fans.
