"How much did yuh bet on Los An

These are but sample of a few mil
lions or mora bromldle verbal wallops
doled out to an umpire every day. But
hava you aver atopped to figure out
ow many decisions his umpa must
make every seasonT
The statistics stand forth Ilka a rare
bit of cloisonne 7a. 000. or an average.
f 174 a gams. What do you think of
hat?
In a nlne-lnnlng game, an average of
St men on each aide, or 70 In all. face
ha pitcher. Four decisions to tha man
a fair ratio, for nowadays the
groove pitcher la a rarity Indeed,
making 110 ball and atrlka decisions.
Continuing, statisticians hava figured
out an average of 20 decisions on fair
or foul hits. 44 rulings on outs, and
bout 20 plays In which the runner gets
he benefit of the doubt and la called
safe.
Portland clashes In 1 -regularly
scheduled gamea thla season, bringing
he total number of derisions up to 73,-
52, and thla wtll ba ahoved beyond the
74.000 mark by tie gamea and no-game
postponements.
Considering tha arduous duties of tha
nmp It la not to bo wondered at If he
errs occasionally. Indeed. It Is ramark-
bls that tha judges of play do not slip
p mora often. In the progress of a
game, no matter where tha fan Is alt-
ting, he Invariably thlnka ha Is just aa
competent and In just as good a posi
tion to judge aa tha umpire.
Fan See Only Umpire's Mote.
Take Sunday's Infringement on the
mob scene from Julius Caesar at Recre
ation Park, for example. No two fans
Itting around tha amphitheater saw
tha play alike. One man maintained
that Barry In rtj-inlnr to first waa past
tba bag when tbe baiThlt him; another
that It hit him In tba head, and ao on
ad Infinitum.
Her are a few Interviews gleaned at
random from wall-known fans. Not
tha varlanoc:
Dr. J. r. Neuberaer Barry didn't run
In mora than a few modes, and should
not have been called out. I was In the
south wing of the grandstand and could
see plainly.
James Richardson I waa In tha press
box and saw Barry deliberately cut out
Into th diamond ao aa to Interfere with
peg. Instantaneously as th beJl
hit him I turned and told those close
by that ba should ba called out.
EL R. Schonenbach Few fans, in fact.
iw players, know that a runner can
be called out for running in th dia
mond even If only a few lnchee. An
mplra therefor can call half th run
era out If ha ao desire, and I think
Hlldebrand waa too strict In his Inter
pretation of th rule at that critical
point. Barry did not cut In to amount
to anything.
A. U 6mltti 1 sat Jn the grandstand
with Fielder Jonea and watched the
play closely and In my judgment Barry
who Is a wise old head, saw that ha
would ba caught out easily, so de
liberately swerved Into the diamond
hoping to block the throw and per
haps get away with the game. Hllde
brand wa right In calling him out
and will eventually win deep respect
by his exhibition of nerve In the pinch.
J. Grimes This talk about Barry's
cutting In five feet Is rot. He ran
directly down the line and Dillon waa
aa surprised aa McCredle.
Hlldebrand Tells Position.
A baseball fan who doesn't want to
sea tha home team win la surely a
peculiar sort of creature. But when
you come to think It over, there were
7S00 fans In a paroxysm on Bunday who
didn't know just what the fuss was all
about. The writer has said that he
believes Hlldebrand was too severe and
too strict In his Interpretation of that
particular play. Hlldebrand srtrues
Just aa strenuously on the other aide.
"People don't understand that 'cut In'
rule." said Hlldy last night "Why. I
aaw Nick Williams called out once for
cutting Into the diamond after making
a clean single to right field. Of course,
I think that ruling was too severe."
But the fact that Hlldebrand may
have erred on the one decision does
not Imply that Hlldy la not one of tha
best Judges of play that has ever
worked In the league. Ha has gone
through with colors flying up to now,
and that's about the best stsndard by
which to sum up an umpire after all.
A rather Interesting comparison of
the player and the umpire can ba made
by the way. Rarely does a player,
other than the first baseman, have 20
or more chances. If a player accepts
It or 20 chances, averaging .S50, It la
regarded aa a brilliant performance.
If an umpire misses five of 274 chances,
sveraglng .6. It Is a good bet that
his work for the afternoon will be re
garded as very poor.

National Tennis Tournament.
McLoughlln Beats His Man.
NEWPORT. R. I.. Aug. 21. At the
openlnd day of the Slst all-comers'
tournament of the National lawn ten
nis championship on tbe Casino courts
today an unprecedented number of
players appeared to contest for the
honor of meeting Champion W. A.
Larned in the challenge march.
Nearly 200 contestants were paired
for the opening round, but a large
number of defaults today lowered tha
list considerably. All the leading
players won easily. Former National
Champion Clothier, of Philadelphia,
dropped out, owing to business en
gagements.
The principal match of the day was
between Thomas C. Bundy, of Califor
nia, who won the all-comers' tourna
ment last year, and has been selected
for this year's Davis cup team, and F.
C. Inman, a New York expert. Bundy
won, 4-6, 6-4, 6-0, 6-2.
The Bundy-Inman match ran to four
sets, the CalJfamlan finally winning by
better work at the net. The victory
of Nlles over C. M. Bull was decisive,
the latter winning only - one game in
the three sets.
One of the first matches completed
was that between Beals C. Wright, of
Boston, a former champion, and J. G.
Alexander, of New York, Wright win
ning in straight Beta. Tha summary:
AU-comer' tournament, first round
(begun) McLoughlln beat Nettleton.
6-2, 6-4, 6-3; Wright beat Alexander.
6-0, 6-1. 6-0; Waldner beat Hobbs, 6-1,
6-0. 6-2; Ames beat McLane. 6-0, 6-2,
6-2; Fall beat Noblitt, 6-2. 6-3, 6-4: Jo
sephs beat Thomas, 6-3, 6-3, 6-3; B. P.

beat F. C. Inman, 4-6, 6-4. 6-0, 6-2; C.

Second round Church beat Jackson.
6-1. 6-1, 6-1; Gardner beat Watrous, 6-3,
6-3, 6-4.
It Is no secret that William A. Lar
ned will defend his title in the singles
and It is possible that there may be a
repetition of last years memorable
match in the challenge round when
Thomas C. Bunday, the Callfornian,
gave Larned a five-set tussle.
Touchard and Little, the challengers
for the doubles, are in fine condition
for the match against Hackett and
Alexander, the holders. The latter
were beaten In the New Y'ork State
doubles, but they hope to retain their
title here.
