They We're defeated last Sunday by
the w. o. w. team at Eastlake park,
Z to 6, in game where poor umpir-
ing was featured and the crowd in
terfered with the playing. Phoenix
does not allow admission to be
charged to witness games at Eastlake
park and it also does not give the
players any protection from fans who
are not good sports, therefore nearly
every game played there this year
has been a disappointment due to
| fans crowding on the field and dis
| putting decisions of the umpire. A
| good game will be seen Sunday on
| the local diamonds, where rough play
will not be allowed.
