D. c. UMPS' ASSOCIATION
WOULD AVOID DISPUTES

That the arbiters who are mem
bers of the District of Columbia Base
Ball Umpires' Association are going to
do more than merely call balls and
strikes is indicated by pamphlet
just issued by the organization.
In this first manifesto, which is
duly signed by James Y. Hughes,
president, and Bernard j. Doyle, sec
retary-treasurer, and, of course, con-
Cured in by Joseph A. Handiboe, vice
president. some suggestions are made
in an effort to avoid disputes on the
field. Here they are:
That the umpire shnll have the en-
tire charge of the games in which
he Is Off ciat ting; that he must be
properly attfred and equipped; that
he must conduct himself In n man
ncr becoming an official, and that
he must be on hand and ready to
start the games at the hour set.
Thht the club shall have the play
Ing field properly arranged, as pro-
vtded by the rules, viz; Bases and
bags securely fastened; foul lines
marked and the terminals thereof
marked by flag or other marker;
benches provided for players. or
order, 1t being the intention to
conduct all games i'm accordance
with the official code.
Twenty-three jumps are members
of the association, and Secretary
Doyle has issued a neat folder con-
tanning their names. addresses and
telephone numbers. These have been
mailed to many of the clubs, but any
organization wishing a list may OBJ
tain it from Doyle, 737 9Th street
southeast. Lincoln 1871.
There will be a meeting of the as
