Carl Gebert, al- pitched the. Bowden game and held his opponents to’one run but during the final inning his'‘arm played out and he was relieved by Oscar. Han- son; At this stage Bowden had two on bases and one down, and after the two runners had- made the rounds the side was dismissed, which put the finis to Bowden and their supporters’ excitement, which. was at a high pitch. Oscar was on the mound for the final game and at last he accomplished his objective by, pitching a shut-out game, much to the disappointment of the Carstairs team who, before the game started, was confident of victory. Good ball playing featured the tournament games, with our home team display- ‘ing a superior brand, which gave them well earned victories. Dipssury 8—OL ps 8 | The .league game played at the park between Didsburyand Olds on rily, the referee was fair, the game close, and genuine thrills weré hand-| ed out. to fans, who were really enjoying the game. It was near the final innings (remember, we stated that the umpire. was fair) that an umpire who knew the ‘rules of the game thoroughly was badly needed to: decide definitely’ unusual plays which occurred, and. which were the cause of a second. bitter quarrel this season between these two opposing teams. When Innisfail was here on Monday for a game we were asked this question, Why can’t Olds and Didsbury ever finish a game? and our questioner was fully convinced that the fault lay with the Olds team, which leads us to give our interested baseball followers the three plays that caused all the dispute, .because it has come to this puss that the manage- ment of the Rosebud League will have to take drastic steps td’ prevent unfinished games. and not allow players to walk off. the field ad lib. The only olution lies ‘in having qualified neutral umpires, even at an extra cost to the league clubs. The first cause for a decision bya baseball authority was at a point when A. Gooder, for Olds, clouted a long hit into right field. The fielder (Didsbury) did without a question juggle the ball, which, but for its coming in contact. with. his body, would very likely have fallen to the. ground. Olds disputed the umpire’s decision as he called the batter out. Knowing the rules thoroughly would have decided this dispute correctly, which went by. in Didsbury’s favor The next unfortunate part of the game was when umpire Allen:called a ‘‘block ball,’’ instead of calling a **no-ball:’?? owing to Didsbury’s pit- cher coming in contact with the umpire when he: was swinging back for a throw to an Qlds batter, and, to take advantage of the error, every Didsbury player and the manager were “most insistent that the base runners should’ advance a base. Had this been allowed, the man on} third would. have ‘simply’ walked home and an unearned run _ been chalked up. This part of the game we again leave to our readers’ judg- ment, as we have stated exactly.what The Markets have got their stride and have ‘en- ae sieyayevererere wivear s $8 Bo 4c eae joyed a number of wins.

We admit that to many spectators, in- cluding some of the home team sup- porters, the opinion was safe for the runner. The play was very clese, and if the umpire gave his decision just as he saw the play; he was using his authority in the right direction. In any case, the decision on this last play was all to which Didsbury could have any reasonable objection. The first dispute in their favor, the second man fairness, and yet an exception- ally good game. was_marred and left unfinished, much to the .disappoint- ment of a large crowd of fans who were charged to see the fiasco. INNISFAIL 5—OLps 4 One. of the best league games played at the park this season took place on Monday-evening last, when ‘Innisfail took. the local team into camp by the narrow margin of 5 runs to 4... The first inning spelt disaster for Olds when McLean badly mis- judged two long hits into left field, resulting in a score for Innisfail. Olds evened the score, but’still early in the game the visitors obtained a Jead which the home team could not overtake. The last innings was particularly exciting for both players and fans. Innisfail led by one run. after being dismissed for the last chance at bat. Olds looked like a winning team when the third and second bases were ,occupied, with no one out. But a brilliant double play and a fan brought the game quickly to an end in a sweet victory for Innisfail: .How- ard Ulry proved an efficient umpire. Innisfail. battery, McMahon and J. Thompson; Olds battery, -Oscar Hanson and Pitts: A Warning 8 At a convention of North-west Sheriffs and Police held recently, it was unanimously agreed that motor- ists should be warned against the practice of giving “‘lifts’’ to pedes- trians- along highways, a . practice which in many cases enables law dodgers to more: successfully evade capture. ciation also draws attention tothe fact that not only. does the practice of ‘hop hiking’’ militate against the apprehension of criminals, but that motorists who indulge in the habit of giving automobile lifts to boys and: girls along the road are contributing in a very measurable degree to the |’ creation of a new national problem. Motorists should realize once and or all that the solution is squarely up to them. 2 ty BIRTHS At the nursing home of Mrs. Brown, to Mr. and Mis. Statham, of Wes- terdale, a son, July 12th.
