Naturally tha teams and tha players whom Harris dopes, aa- also ran are very Indignant at the San Francisco man's presumption In sitting as a Judge and Jury en their capabilities. In . soma Instances ' tha writer agrees with Harris, but in others tils .views are somewhat unjust and seemingly prejudiced.
