The men were aeparated hefore any damage was done to either, The dlgnity of the ump was much | upsst however, while Paimer's usual sang froid (that word it worth more than three cents) was conspicuous by its absenee. There were a couple of questions able decisions that marred an ofhe wise perfectly good game, That the game did net end on the diamond was evidenced at the banquet Iater on when Chief Har! in responding to a toast, expressed the opinion that New Britain would have won had the team been play- ing & team of nine men Instead of | cleven men.

Unpleasant feeling again has erop- ped up in the city league, this time it being the Rangers who feel dis- turbed at the expense of the Pirates. The game last Saturday was called at the end of the fourth inning on account of rain, and at that time the Pirates were leading. Umpire Artle Campbell announc- ed that the game, as far as he was ofticlally concerned, was forfelted to the Piratées as the Rangers were playing two ineligible men. 80 much for Campbell's side of it. The Rangers, on the other hand, | claim that before the game they ap- proached Manager Charley Miller of the Pirates and adviséd him of thelr plight and asked permission to play two outsiders. They say that Charley agreed to this, with the provision that the game be played under formal pro- teat. To this the Rangers say they agreed. d Now, ¢laim the Rangers, since the | game did not go the regulatton length the protest as agreed to by the Pirates should stand and the game should be replayed.
