The Tribune Association (New York Tribune). I Starting through an assault upon an umpire, John McGraw has bumped into further trouble that now jeopardizes the Giants' pennant outlook. r Through another assault upon an umpire Babe Ruth has tossed the Red hox under a heavy handicap—one that might easily cost the flag. As bad I as some of the umpiring has been and as arrogan.t and Incompetent as | some of the umpires have proven to be, nothing, of course, has justified j the two assaults and the actions of other players upon the field. THE CAUSE AND REMEDY There Is only one safe sane way to handle the umpiring situation. That is to make a steel-shod rule that no ball player or manager can i speak to an umpire on the field and that n.o umpire, in turn, can speak to a ball player. j other phrases, make the umpire an automaton, just as if some ma j chine was out there registering the balls and strikes and put outs. • tb . e mnin reasons for poor umpiring is the abuse and nagging w hich officials receive on the field, where their judgment is bound to be j warped and upset. If this abuse an.d nagging were stopped the umpiring would improve i immediately and the official could see with far clearer vision. IX OTHER GAMES ; u "V 56 'I a brought out a vital point a day or two ago, when he mentioned I ut no ol,lcr sport tolerates the abuse and nagging of its officials. Take the racing game. In a certain race thousands of dollars are 1 wag ered. At the finish the two leading horses are hardly an eyelash apart. Many bettors are confident their horse has won. But when the verdict iis gi\en by the judges no one thinks of questioning or assailing the decision. It stands as part of the game. An umpire should be treated in the same way. If he becomes incom petent and the league president refuses to remove him. then the vote of a majority of club owners or of six out of the eight should settle his case. , Majority of the club owners are not going to vote to oust a competent official. One or two or three clubs might go after his scalp for certain Barnes, but if his work was along good average lines there would be no question as to his fate. AGGRESSIVENESS AND SI7CH "V ou can put it down as pure bunk that abusing umpires constitutes ag gressiveness. b We have heard it stated more than once that if the players refused to kick on close plays the game would look dead. In other words if nine men and a crowd of 10.000 in the stands refuse th,° UJJSL n" e v, mR ,!2 l hey J°° k t > llltters? this philosophy is correct baseball should be abolished as a sport.

Magnates are realizing more each day that the war is taking away interests in sports of all kinds. How some owners expect to pull through is a mystery. W ellsville, a town that was strong in the Inter-State League, wants to take care of the Harrlsbut-g franchise. There are several millionaires, ac cording to raports, who want to keep the town on the baseball map and are williing to spend the cash to do so. Hagerstown yesterday won the fourteenth straight victory in the Blue Ridge League, defeating Cham bersburg, 4 to 1. The Maryland boys are now only four games away from the lead. Martinsburg, however, is a hard aggregation to beat. Brooklyn, last season's champs In the National League, will receive the pennant on July 2. The presentation is to be an occasion for a big day. Clarence Rowland, manager of the White Sox, who already has been vot ed the American League pennant this year by a majority of the experts, de clares the New York Yankees appear to him to be the most formidable team the American League holds aside from his White Sox. He believes that 'f his team gets away to a league championship this year it will be done with the Yankees trailing them into the homestretch.

ELECTRIC DIRECTORY HELPS HOTEL GUESTS Several hotels In New York have in stalled in their lobbies an electric di rectory for the guidance of their guests to points they wish to visit in the city.
