The races in both leagues have

PROTEST Of

Umpires Ignore Rule ~ by
Starting Less Than Two
Hours Before Sunset
By LOUIS A. BOUCHER,

Following yesterdays thirteen
inning game at the Griffith stadium,
which ended within a few minutes
of o'clock, the umpires, Moriarty
and Hildebrand, insisted that, in &C
cordance with announcement, the
second game of the doubleheader
should be started. 1t began shortly
after 6 o'clock and travelled along
for five innings when darkness
halted it. The score then stood,
3 to 3.

protest would have been in order,
and President Johnson would have
asked both umpires why they per
mitted a game to start contrary to
the provisions of rule %. Here's
the rule: =.
Every championship game must
be commenced not later than two
hours before sunset"
On July 10, 1924, the. sun set Of
ficially, according to the United
States Weather Bureau, at 1885
p. m.
Two hours before sunset yester,
day was 5:35 p. m. At that time
the first game had not yet ended.
Therefore, despite all announce.
ments, no second game should have
been permitted to start.
Only a handful of fans saw the
so-called second game. The Griffs
hoped away to a one-run lead in
the first frame, only to have tho
Jungaleers bump Martina for three
tallies in the second.
With darkness rapidly on it's way,
the Griffs tied it up in the fourth.

MONDAY
TWeIVe-Round Feature Match
Booked for KeniIWorth
Arena

Nate Carp, holder of the Southern
flyweight championship through his
victory over Benny Schwartz, CT
Baltimore, and a consistent winner
over some of the best bantams in
the country, will be seen in action
next Monday night at the kenli'
worth arena when he steps into the
ring for the twelve-round Seaturo
contest with Charlie Ray, of Phila.
delphia.
Carp and Ray defeated about the
same boxers up to last December
when they collided In the ring at
Atlantic City. They fought eight
sizzling rounds, with ringsiders
about evenly divided. Ever since
Ray has claimed he won and Carp
has entered the same claim, both
getting away with it because New
Jersey referees are not permitted to
make decisions.
Matchmaker Sam Beard, of the
Kenilworth club, has been angling
for several weeks to get these two
flying bantams into the ring just
over the District line and has finally
succeeded in hooking them up for
next weeks show.
Just how good Ray is is shown
by his three decisions over Little
jeff. Baltimores toughest of all
flyweights.
1T shapes up like II good contest
between even-matched boys" says
Matchmaker Beard. Maybe, with
the referee permitted to make a, de-
cision this time, one or the other
will win and end this hot air."

EggIeston and Marriott Re-
turn Fight to Be Staged
Tomorrow Night

The twelve-round contest between
Jumbo Eggelston. Of the Mohawk
club. and the army middleweight
champion, Bobby Marriott, will be
staged at the Sportland Heights
arena tomorrow night. 1t was the
intention of the promoters to put
this battle back until next Thurs
day, but both Eggelston and Mar.
riott made a strong protest and in
sisted upon going this week, so
Matchmaker Les Sponsler agreed to
go ahead with the battle,
Eggelston and Marriott should
make a thrilling battle and are both
more than anxious to have this
one over with and settle the dis
pute that arose after their last
meeting, which the Mohawk lad won
on a foul in eleven rounds. Jumbo
was never in better shape in his
life than he is now, and figures
that If he went so well the last
time with the army champion, he
will do lots better this time.
Marriott has just turned in an.
other kayo win from one of the
toughest mjddleweights in the coun-
try, Johnny Wolgast, Of Lancaster,
Pa, whom Bobby flattened in two
rounds last Monday night.
A great flyweight battle will be
featured in the six-round semi-final
in which Eddie Leonard will collide
with Irish Johnny Pagan, Of Camp
Meade. These two little pepperpots
should show some real boxing class
and please the fans to the utmost.
Three fourround bouts will open

RECORD
IS HELD. BY
STONER
Team Three Runs Ahead, He
Pitches One Ball and
Loses Game.

Lii Stoner, the young Tiger right
hand star, holds at least one record
which not exactly enviable, is at
least unique. He lost a ball game
though he pitched but one ball and
at the moment his own team was
three runs to the good.
Stoner was then pitching for
Fort Worth. With two out in the
ninth Forth Worth team was three
runs to the good. but the tosser who
had been working through the game
went wild. He filled the bases with
passes. 1t was then that Lii was
called upon, for he was usually
very accurate and could get the
ball over. He certainly could get
it over, for when he went to the
box the batter already had three
balls called. Lii started the first
one over, but the batter knocked 1t
over the fence for a home run,
winning the ball game. The defeat
was charged against Stoner.
Other pitchers have lost a game
by pitching only one ball. but it
is doubtful if any other pitcher
ever lost a game with one pitch at
a time that his mates were enjoy.
ing three-run lead.
Stoner also has another peculiar
record. He won twanty-seven games
during the season and lost eleven,
leading the league, but he never
saw game lost that he started
and finished. Every game that he
lost was due to the fact that he
was hit hard in the early stages,
and was taken out before the con.
test was over, or they were games
he lost himself when acting as pinch
hitter. or the twenty-seven wins
he is accredited with, twenty-five OF
them were complete games.
