WINNERS OF WEIRD CONTEST IN 
Wuicu Bap UMPIRING IS 
FEATURE, 
All the hopes of the Manchester 
fans of a third straight victory were 
wrecked last Saturday upon the rocks 
of. erratic umpiring and weird field- 
ing. The fact that St. John’s Literary 
institute of Cambridge touched up 
Grover for seven hits and crossed the 
home plate six times in seven innings 
is largely due to defective eyesight of 
a gentleman by the name of Hubbard, 
whom somebody has convinced in an 
unguarded moment that he is an um- 
pire. When the aforesaid “umps” be- 
gan to call them where they were not,

there were two very nervous persons 
on the diamond at the same time— 
one was “his umps” and the other was 
Grover. Grover blew up and the 
umpire gradually came back to earth. 
When Woodman went in to relieve 
Grover in the seventh the damage’ was 
already done, although the umpiring 
was still rocky. 
It happened thusly: 
inning O'Connell popped to Merritt, 
Cleary fanned and O’Connor ground- 
ed to Merritt. Gourley and O’Leary 
flied out for Manchester and Wood- 
man got a hit to center, Then Devlin 
lifted one to Cleary. 
McCarthy singled through short in 
the second inning and Longley popped 
out to Jeffrey while trying to bunt. 
Quinn and Leahy retired after breez-

ing at Grover’s fast ones. Holt start- 
ed things off with a beautiful drive 
in the general direction of Alaska and 
romped home while Leahy was look- 
ing for the ball. Then the fans began 
to sit up and enjoy themselves. Eli- 
vard stopped a fast shoot on the leg 
and was given a base. Merritt laid 
the: ball along the third base line and 
Elivard was stopped at second. Jef- 
frey moved Merritt along with a sin- 
gle to left field and Grover fanned. 
Gourley helped things out by a fast 
one through third base, Merritt scor- 
ing: O’Leary was passed and Wood- 
man struck out, leaving Jeffrey and 
Gourley on the bags. He did not ex- 
actly “strike out”— he never had a 
chance to. The third one was a foot 
above his shoulders, but the umpire 
was seeing strikes just them. 
Sullivan was headed off at first base 
in the third by one of O’Leary’s 
lightning throws. Fitzgerald drove 
a terrific smash toward third and 
O’Leary speared it out of the air on 
the bound. It was a beautiful stop, 
but Frankie made a bad throw of it 
and Fitzgerald slowed up at second. 
Grover fanned O’Connor and Cleary 
drew a pass, principally through kind- 
ness of the umpire. Both teams had 
had occasion by this time to pay their 
tender respects to the gentleman pre- 
siding over the indicator and he was 
getting so nervous that balls and 
strikes looked alike. The crowd re- 
mained good natured, however, and 
he recovered his equilibrium, if not 
his eyesight. O’Connor helped Grover 
by sending a long fly to Elivard, retir- 
ing the side. 
In Manchester’s half of the inning 
Devlin fanned, with the assistance of 
the umpire; Holt bunted and was 
thrown out; Elivard was passed, St. 
John’s being the victims this time, 
and Merritt popped to O’Connor. 
McCarthy drove the ball to center 
for the first hit in the fourth and 
Langley arrived at first while Grover 
nursed: the ball in front of the plate. 
Quinn hit safely in the infield. Leahy 
bunted and was sacrificed while Mc- 
Carthy came in with the first run. 
Sullivan fanned and Fitzgerald’s two- 
bagger brought in Langley and Quinn. 
Jeffrey was walked in the fourth 
and Grover was struck in the knee by 
a pitched ball. Francis did the run- 
ning for him. Gourley sacrificed and 
O’Leary grounded out to first. Jef- 
frey was nailed at third. 
Cleary got a hit for St. John’s in 
the fifth, but O’Connor fanned and 
McCarthy flied out to Devlin, Then 
Cleary was caught at second by Jef- 
frey’s throw. In Manchester’s half 
Woodman flied to Sullivan, Devlin 
singled and was out on Holt’s bunt to
