n contest that viii CIV give you
thrill. In a regular base ball
game you don't always have a chance
to show as hitter. Sometimes you
have to sacrifice the other fellow
along by a bunt, or hit long fly to
score man from third with one, or
none, out. Or you may be hit by the
pitcher or get four balls and walk.
Today Wen forget about the sacri-
fee bunt. the sacrifice fly, the walk
and the hit batsman. Well just slug
the OF apple and see what happens.
Well line up as we would for the
old game of scrub bat Pitch pennies
at crack. The farthest from the
crack plays right field to start. the
next center, then left, third, short,
second, first, pitch, catch and the
closest ones go to bat. Each batsman
gets a chance at bat and then goes
to right field and everybody moves
up. After every one present has
batted five times check up on the
score and see who got the most hits.

BROOKLINE, Mass. July 24.-The

Only the final match Of the annual

Those representatives of Ran John
sons umpiring system that were on
the field yesterday certainly made no
effort TO check the Georgian. And
they were offered every excuse to ex.
ercise the authority they SO often
exercise In minor instances. too.
Although Cobb repeated DELAYED
action. neither MCGOWAN nor Connolly
seemed able to handle the situation.
Cobb ran yesterdays game-not the
umpires.
Perhaps MCGOWAN was more at
fault than Connolly, for he was
umpire in-chief. But about all Nc
Gowan did was call balls and strikes
and make base-running decisions at
the plate. AS far as conducting the
game was concerned he was a total
loss.
1t is up to the umpires to take care
of Cobb and give the American public
the kind of base ball 1t desires. If
the umpires cannot do this. it is up
to Ban Johnson, president of the
American League, to take drastic
action.
