ABSENCE OF UMP
CAUSES SCRAPS
ON THE DIAMOND
Drumright Won With Score of
Six to Five in Long-Wind-
ed Game
Drumright ruptured the long end
of a 6-0 score yesterday afternoon in
a long drawn out game that was full
of quarreling und wrangling. The sox
put over four runs after two outs had
been made in the last inning. The
game was won after some of the fans
had given up ho]>e and started
leave the park.
In (he first inning the Sox scored
first on a hit an error and two sacri
flees.
The Twins made three runs in the
third inning, after quite a lot of argu
ing and demonstrations as to how a
play had gone. In the end Speers said
that he would resume the game under
protest.
The rest of the game was nip and
tuck until the ninth inning when the
Twins pushed over two scores.
In the White Sox end of the ninth.
Hush was safe on an error, and Olson
and Magnis fanned. O'Bryne singled
to left, Bradbury singled to center,
scoring Bush. Mauser singled through
short stop, filling the bases. Manager
Schmidt jerked Deason from the box
and put Wetzell in. who made a force
run for Drumright by walking Speer,
Crittenden hit a long drive to right
scoring Bradbury and Mauser.
A drawback to the game yesterday
was the absence of an umpire, Jelsma
and Leverett took the place of the
absent umpire, but it is absolutely
impossible to conduct a game in this
manner and please the fans.

MARANVILLE CAN BE SERIOUS
Pirates' Crack Little Shortstop Com-
bines His Gift of Comedy With
Sense of Propriety.
Walter Maranvllle, who Is quite on
a par with Nick Altrock as a diamond
comedian, combines with his gift of
comedy a rare sense of propriety. In
short, he knows when to act the clown
and when to he serious Before a re-
gatne at the Polo grounds be

figuratively knocked the tans off their

WHY UMPIRES STICK
TO FIRST DECISION
Reversal Would Mean Loud Pro-
tests and Delays.
KATHERINE BUTTERFIELD
H\
Few Games Would Go Beyond First
Inning W Arbiters Were to Pay
Heed to Arguments and Proofs
Presented by Players.
Entirely too many fans have an
Idea that umpires stick to their had
decisions out of sheer bullhoaded-
ness. Those fans are almost invari-
ably wrong. Every umpire tune and
again In the season understands in u
flash, after he has decided one way,
that he should have decided another,
but If he reversed himself, th.is en-
couraging kicks, protests and delays,
he would lose his Job In short order,
writes Torn ttlce In the Brooklyn
Eagle.
Very few fans stop to consider why
the rule against umpires reversing
themselves on decisions of fact Is al-
most as unalterable as tin- laws of
the Modes and Persians, but the rule
Is absolutely necessary If any ball
game Is to be finished In less time
than Is required f« r one of those
three-day cricket matches.
If umpires were to heed arguments,
proofs un«l figures and reverse them
selves, they would do nothing hut hold
court, and few ball games would go
more than one inning, as enough dis-
puted decisions would ordinarily arise
in the first round to keep the ump
engaged all the rest of the afternoon.
Long and painful experience has
taught the powers that be In baseball
that It Is better to lay it down as a
definite principle that an umpire shall
stick by his decision, even when he
realizes on second thought that lie
was wrong, than It Is to encourage
the players In the belief that if they
talk long and loudly enough they can
persuade him to reverse himself.
While cases occasionally arise in
which an umpire would be Justified in
reversing himself, such a reversal,
based upon new evidence, so to speak,
would lend to Interminable urgu-
ments jind proffers of new evidence
upon all close plays.
