UMPIRE "BILLY" EVANS IS SURELY GOING BACK HE ONLY CAN READ SIGN 100 YARDS AWAY

BILL EVANS' SIGHT GOES BAD
WHEN READING AT 100 YARDS;
: HE FALLS DOWN ON EYE TEST
'American League Umpire Fails to Equal Charley
Rigler's Record in Optical Work, But
He Should Worry
By KOBEIIT
'TTTILLIAM a, EVANS, tho American
YV League umpire, was recovering from a
hard day's -work. William Q. affection
ately called "Bill" and other names by tho
ball players had just finished a double-
header, saw tho Ath
letics play according to
their old-tlmo form and
staggered Into his
dressing room to got a
much-necdod rest.
Dill wan sitting on a
low stool before 'hla
locltor when wo burst
In on tho scene.
"How was tho game
I mean games!" wa
ventured. "Havo any
tAiiiilA? T 11 1 1 anv
v3??:;
U Uf& boners during the aftor-
n. w. maxwblij noon?"
Borne Inside Stuff
You know, It's great to get clubby with
the ump after tho gamo and allow htm to
slip you somo Inside dope. As a rule, um
pires aro tho most perfect persons In tho
world, so wo noted tho effect of our terribly
direct question and anxiously awaited tho
answer. ,
"Mistakes!" queried Evans as ho looked
up. "Guess I pulled a couple, but I got
nway with them. You gotta make mistakes
or you'ro not a good umpire. "Why shouldn't
you miss ono now and then? Take a ball
player, for example If ho has n dozen
chancos In the field and boots ono tho papers
coma out tho next day and call him a hero.
His ml3tako Is overlooked. But tako tho
caso of tho umpire. Supposo he boots ono.
Kvcrybqdy roars for his life. Applauso Is
unknown to him. Tho beat ho gets Is
ellenco.
Somo More Dope
"Don't think I am offorlng any alibis,
becauso I am not. I am Just trying to
show you tho difference between the work
of an umplro and a player. Ton chances
during a game, outside of the first base
man. Is considered a good day'B work.
How many chances do tho arbiters havo?
In an average gamo we'll say that 60 bat
ters coma up that Is, on both sldos. In
cluding balls, strikes and fouls, flva balls
oro pitched to each batter. That totals
800 a conservative estimate. Then tako
tho doclslons on tho bases. Perhaps th'ero
aro 60, which brings tho total to 350
"Now, Just Ilguro It out for yourself
Throe hundred and fifty chances In ono
gamo I And what happens when one Is
missed? You know tho answer. Why, tho
fans would shriek with Joy If thoy could
havo us shot at sunrlso or chase us out
of tho lot. Thoy call us blind mon and
things like that, but wo should worry. Wo
do tho best mo can and leave tho rest of
It to the fairness of tho fans! and tho
fans aro not so bad as they nro painted."
Bill then donnod his light suit of clothes
ho wears a dark ono whon things break
badly and he has to lcao the park under
covor of darkness walked out In tho open,
jumped Into a waiting automobllo and was
whizzed to his hotel.
Eleven Years nn Umpire
Evans Is considered tho best umplro In
the American League and never has trouble
on tho ftold Ho Is respected by players
and fans alike, and his decisions seldom
tire questioned. Bill broko Into tho loaguo
In 1900 when ho was a more child, and nftcr
11 years of service Is tho youngest nnd also
the oldest In experience on tho circuit.
Bill's remark about being called a blind
man recalled to us an etporlenco of his
about six years ago, when the young um
pire really thought his eyesight was af
fected and was leady to pull tho bloole
bloole stuff. This Is how It happened;
In 1910 Chubby Charles Murphy, of tho
Cubs, unleashed a vltrlollo vorbal broad
side against umpires of tha past, present
and future, called them everything ho could
think of. Including blind old ladles, and
'demanded that each and every arbiter In
the National Lcnguo bo oxamlned by an
expert oculist. This caused quite a stir In
baseball circles, and Tom Lynch, who then
was president, notified all of tho umpires
on the staff to bo tested immediately and at
ones.
Enter Charley Rlcler
About this tlmo Charley Rlgler, who al
ways plays things naf?, was coaching tho
baseball team at tho University of Virginia.
.Ho received notlco and acted on tho Bpot.
Ho went to an oculist In Charlottesville and
asked how they tested eyes.
Ho was told that the patient stood about
15 feet from a card and read the letters
thereon.
"What kind of a card do they use?"
asked Charlie.
"This Is tho one," replied tho oculist,
as he pulled one off the shelf.
Rlgler purchased It, took It home and
studied It religiously until ho, knew every
letter by heart, from the big ones at the
top to the fine print at the bottom. Need,
less to eay he passed the test.
Now ws bring Bill Kyans back into the
scenario,
The Plot Thickens
About a month later Rlgler was walking
down the street In Cleveland and stopped
before a store window, There was a nice
blue suit on display and It looked like an
Ideal umpire's uniform. Charley looked It
aver, noticed the b 'it, the two buttons on
the coat and, best of all, the p;ce $18.50.
Then he started walking again.
Ho traveled about two squares when he
ran Into Kvans. You know, Bill and
Charley vote In the Bamo precinct,
'Hello, Bill I" hailed the representative
of the National Leu. -e. ''Olad to see you.
Just got back from Washington, where I
had my eyes examined. Specialist wald
they were O. It Had yours examined yet?';
"Nothing Hko that In our circuit,'' an
swered Kvans. "Ban doesn't believe in
tho&o 'nut' Ideas. Sly eyes are all to the
good, anyway,"
"Glad to heur ft," retorted Rlgler, Then
he looked at tho vtore window ho had Just
left, which was three squares away, and
said:
"See that store? The one with the yellow
front. What do you think of the suit In
there? Great for umpiring. See lt?"
BUI Is Suspicious
' "Hey, what are you trying to pull on
rrje?" Bill said, disgustedly. "See the suit?
Why, I can hardly see the store. Do you
mean to tell roe that your eyes are so good
that you can see something In the wln
dow?" "Surest thing you know replied Charley.
"It's a Clue sulv" and he looked more In.
tently "with a, belt, two buttons on the coat;
and" business of looking some more "it
costs only (16 60. I can soe the tag."
Can you Imagine a person standing at
llth. and Chestnut street and describing the
coatinta of one of Wana,raaker"e windows?
Well. Evans thought the same thing, but, to
make sure, be suggested that they take a
walk past the store and take a look.
When he found that Rlgler bad tha right
dope and the suit was exactly aw he describ
ed It. Bill couldn't believe h) eyes and
grew worried Charley sympathized with
Elm, however, told him mat to take t so
hard, but have his optica examined as soon
s possible.
BUI taid nothing as they resumed walk
ing, but be was. thinking pretty bard. Sud
denly tljey turped into an arcadu, which,
SM 100 feet long K 9 yards ana Charley

W. MAXWELL
grabbed him by the arm, stopped him and
pointed to a whlto blur In a window at the
other end of tho place. Remember, It was
100 yards away.
They Meet the Sign '
"See that slgn7'( he asked. "Get that
white sign In that window? It's nn eye
testing card. Can you read tho letters
on It?"
"Aw, cut out the comedy," said BUI. "You
put ono over on mo when you pulled that
stuff about tho suit, but don't kid mo along
with this stuff. 1 don't know what the
Blgn Is, nnd you don't either. If there aro
any lottcrs on It, you couldn't seo them
without a telescope. What's the Idea?"
Itlgler turned and looked at his com
panion and wai a picture of despair. Tears
camo to his eyco when ho said!
"Bill, do you mean to tell me that you
can't read that card? Tell mo tho truth.
Can't you read It? Your eyes cannot bo
ns bad as that Look at It closely. Can't
you seo anything?"
"Nix, now," Bhoutcd Evans. Don't try
to get my goat. Of courso I Can't seo It.
I suppose you aro a wire guy and can rend
ovory ono of them. Don't try to fool mo.
I'll bet you (25 to $S that you can't even
road tho first lino I"
"I don't 111:3 to take your money," sighed
Charley, "but It seems tho only way to
show you how, bad your eyes arc. Are you
ready? Get a pencil and paper and tako
down tho letters as I call them off."
Rends the Letters
Charles started In at tho top'nnd rattled
off tho A, C, Q, n, P, ?C, L on the top and
continued until ho finished with tho small
type nt tho bottom, which was about ono
sixteenth of an Inch high at 100 yards.
Evnni smiled as thoy walked to tho win
dow to compare tho notes, but his mnllo
fnded when ho saw that every letter was
perfect. Ho looked quecrly nt his com
panion, compared tho letters again and
shook his head. Bill really thought ho wai
going blind nnd was wondering what kind
of work ho would havo to do when Ban
Johnson learned that ho couldn't see. Rig
lor sympathized with him, told Mm that
a couple of months In a dnrk room would
euro 'him, but Evans refused to bo
cheered up.
They walked back to tho spot whoro
Charley stood when he rend oft the let
ters, when tho National Lcaguo umplro
again stopped him.
"I'd Just like to show you how good my
eyes aro," ho said, ns ho turned his back
to tho card and took a small mirror out of
his pocket "I'll read tho lottcrs with my
hack turned and use this looking glass.
Tako out your paper and seo If I get them
right"
Bill wnsn't Interested at this stage, as ho
had troubles of his own, but ho took out tho
paper and checked htm up, Again Rlglor
wnn right'
"I'll read them backwards," said tho keen
eyed oxport "How nbout It?"
Uses Reverse English
Ho read them backwards, nnd Evans
looked lllto a man nbout to Jump off tho
dock. Ho put his hand in his pocket and
alouly countod out $25.
"You win," ho said sadly. "My eyes nro
In terrible shape. I guess It's me for two
months In tho dark room. Things certnlnly
aro breaking tough for me. Gee, you'ro a
lucky guy I"
"Walt a minute, boforo you pay me," an
Bwored Riglor, "I want to show you some
thing else. Get out your paper ngaln."
Then ho turned his back, shut his eyes
and rattled off the letteri without a hitch.
Evaui looked at him, spellbound. His
eyes wero almost popping .out of his head
and his mouth opened in amazement. Then
he laughed, slapped Rlgier on tho back and
shouted:
"It's a Joke! It's a jokel You had me
worried, though. Tako tho 25 bucks. You
deserve to win."
"Put away your money," carelessly re
torted Charles. "I learned that stuff whon
I was In college. Charley Murphy has
nothing on me. Buy me somo lunch and
we'll call It square. Examine the umpires'
eyes? Say, ain't that an awful Joke?"

Slaves From Starving
Copy Desk
Dy SANDY McNIDLICK
aOLP scribes, ordinary wri'tore, aaalat
nnt eltv editors and other members of
. the STtat Journalistic public have been agi
tating; the question lor eome days na to trie
possibilities of a local newspaper golf as
sociation. The new body would be lit line with
similar ones In other laree metropolll and
will to 9n the same principle as those crop,
ping up like mushrooms among laree busi
ness organizations.
One of the objects of the new club as
proposed will be to Blve the "molders of
nnhiln onlnlon." bv physical contact, a lteen
appreciation of the thrills, the harassment
of aoul and the heart throbs to be ex
tracted from the game of golf.
Another purpose will be to keep the fol
lowers of crime and the grinding presses
out of darkTiaunts and to bring them Into
the great outdoors where they can enjoy
healthful recreation.
' Many newspaper men have expressed a
desire to take a "crack" at the game that
la steadily riding In on. the tide of popular
faor, and threaten to oust baseball and
all the, other small-time sports as the na
tional pastime.
There are scores of newspaper men In
this city that havo already taken a hand
at golf, and these are the ones that are
making the most commotion for the club.
The main purpose of such a club, as li(
any business golf association, will be to
promote good fellowship and Intimate ac
quaintance. It will offer much tn the way
of sociability.
It is proposed to hold tournaments on ell
two of the holidays offered newspaper men,
Cbrlstmas and the Fourth of July. There
will be handicap play In slack hours and
plenty of chance for sociable rounds wltn
members, The pourse of one of the local
clubs 'will be open to tha members for cne
Ja, and It Is expected that several other
clubs will be equally generous. More than
a score of newspaper men at the present
time play regularly ovr the Cobb's Creik
course, and It l thought the membership
of the proposed club will speedily climb to
the century mark.
The New York New-papi Golf Absolu
tion lifts a. membership of J00. and bus

A new record was hung up yesterday. It
Is alleged, at Cobb's creek for the first
nine holes. The author ot the card was so
exhausted after hlu effort supreme that he
was unable to finish the other nine holes.
The first "real" record set up among morn
ing newspaper men for the first nine holes
was held by Jlmmle Ieamlnger, with a 71.
This speedily fell before the deadly eye
of "Doc" Shell, who ho)ed out the first
lap In the brilliant figures ot 68. But it
remained for Bill Brandt to show who was
who.
He took his good kit In hand, tucked In
his tie and Just naturally knocked them all

the congratulations of his friends mod

Jim Barnes, popular pro., -would rather have
won the Metropolitan title last week than
