The contested game was with Baker City In this city on May 30. Manager Hosier protested a de cision made by Umpire Splllman in the ninth inning, and by going to Presi dent Thompson with his side of the story only, he was able f.0 secure a decision on the matter, which at the present time decrees that La Grande lost the game In Question to Baker City by the score of 7 to 5. ,; ' Granted New Hearing.

Manager O'Brien arranged for "a hear ing with Mr. Thompson, and this was had In Pendleton today, when the local team pasnod through Pendleton cn route to Walla Walla, That the .decision will be reconsidered Is cer tain, and on the strength of the evi dence that was presented by the Babes' manager, it Is nlso practically assured that the decision will be re manded and the score allowed to stand as It was when the game closed on May SO. The Baker managcf entered his pro test because an overthrow by La Grande went into the crowd where a rooter picked up the ball. Of course, if was a blocked ball, but Umpire Splllman forbid, the. runners from 'registering.
