UMPIRE SCOUTS ARE
ADDED TO LEAGUES
Majors Searching Eagerly
for Likely Youngsters.

With the steady strides being made
by baseball it is natural that the CO.
ordinating agencies of the national
game must of necessity keep apace
with these advances. There can be
no letting-up or sliding by of any
of the integral parts of the sport II
the high degree of proficiency it has
attained is to be perpetuated, says the
Sporting News.
In this connection 1t Is interesting
to note that the majors are keeping
weather eye out for good looking
umpires sprouting up in the smaller
leagues. Umpiring is one Of the most
important factors of the game, and, as
the president of the National league
very aptly put it the other day: zone
can't expect to find an Evans or a
KLEIN in every recruit" he seemed to
hit the truth squarely. The remark
was made after criticism had been
directed at one of his arbiters.
1t is true that the Evanses, Klems
and Moriartys are few. But we must
have umpires and they must be devel-
oped in the minors.
An umpire of the present day must
have four requisites. = intelligence,
tact, honesty and judgment. And
what's more, those four requisites
must all be embodied in one. An UNI
pire might be able to call strikes, but
if he hasn't the tact to handle the
players, his value is virtually nulli-
fed
OF the young arbiters who Joined
the National league this year there
seemed to be. tendency on the part
Of one to carry chip on his shoulder.
He was obsessed of the Idea that the
players were intent on riding him."
because he was new man. Perhaps
such was the case. At all events he
became arrogant and intolerant to-
ward the high-salaried men he was
supposed to govern on the field and
the result was that he sacrificed tact
for expeditions action against the
players. 1t was not healthy condi-
ton and impelled protests which were
carried higher by the players.
In the meantime, the National
league has Bob Emslie browsing
around the minor circuits, looking to
the future, if not the present.

The Giants are likely to crash

Some one tipped off the late
Charley Havenor, at that time
owner of the Brewers, that this
fellow Konetchy looked like a
conner and could be purchased
for $3.50 from La Crosse.
What's his manner" asked
Doyle of Havenor. 1t so hap
pened that the owner was not
sure on the pronunciation Of
Koney's name and got his tongue
tangled up.
That's = enough" shrieked
Doyle to his boss, we've got

Edman, assistant professor at Col

unsettling much of the best youth OF
