Bush League Umps
Major Problem of
Baseball Outfit
Arnold Bsuman. skipper of the Hilt
ball club In the Northern California
league, was In Medford ths other
day walling that ancient and per
fectly Justified cry of all bush league
managers, to-wlt, the extreme lousi
ness, on more than one occasion, of
umpires In the sticks.
Bsumsn, who wheeled his portslde
delivery over time plat for Medford
two years sgo and last season as
sisted John Mtljus with his kid Kim
here, claims that his oellarlte Hilt
team not only was robbed last Sun
day In Its battle with Mt. Shasta,
but waa bamboozled aa weU. The
husky hurler stated that no matter
where Hilt pitchers heaved the apple,
the opposing "Blind Tom" signified
the pitch a ball. And, that no matter
where the Mt. Shasta thrower de
livered the ball, the umps called It i
strike.
It was horrible, ;.uman said In
effect, although he spouted stronger
adjectives than can be printed, and
he would like to see somthlng done
about It.
Sadly enough, Arnold la sot alone
In that wish. Probably every head

man of very semi-pro ball team In
America would like to see "aomethlng
dona about It." And, eren aadder
la the fact that nothing can be done
about It, and probably never will.
Umpiring la undoubtedly the most
unpleasant phase of several unpleas
ant phase of baseball of the bush
rarlety. Lousy fields la another. But
poor calling of balls and strikes and
bad officiating on the bases tops them
all as detrimentals. And, If there la
any remedy for the situation, we have
not heard of It, nor has anybody else.
All bush leagues are reather loosely
organised, with the teams barely
struggling along to make both ends
meet, financially. Because of that,
clubs and leagues can't go out and
hire efficient umpire because they
can't afford It. They do the only
thing possible, and that la for each
team to furnish one umpire, usually
the home club producing the u mp tra
in -ch iff. or plate official. And there
lies the dynamite.
Occasionally, through no fault or
Intention of their own. a team will
assign an umpire that apparently
doesn't know the difference between
a stolen base and an Infield fly. The
umps calls a couple of bad ones, the
other official tries to overrule the
decision, and a good riot Is thereby
underway.
It has happened several times In
the Southern Oregon league In years
past, but to date teams In this cir
cuit have been fairly fortunate In
selecting arbiters who know what It's
all about, or at least are honest. Of
course there have been bad decisions
they all make them but when an
umpire la In there calling them the
way he sees them that's all you can
ask for.
Austin Frazler and John Smith of
Medford, Black of Ashland, and Tu
hey Rlggs of Q rants Pass are excep
tionally fine officials, and have thus
far escaped the wrath of players and
fans as much as any umpire can.
Most of the others are efficient, also.
On the question ot honesty In bush
league umpires, there la nothing
much that can be said. We have
witnessed games that we would have
bet our last dollar were being de
liberately handed to one team by a
cheating official. Such occurrences
are few, to be sure, and never proved.
The other day, for Instance, an east
ern Oregon team protested a game
on the grounds that one umpire was
drunk. He probably was, but after
several days of wrangling and squab
bling and appeals to the league presi
dent and arbiter, the battle was al
lowed to stand as played. And, that
was all that could be done about
that.
It'a tough on players of both teams
lousy umpiring but until some
body comes along with a bright idea
to remedy the business at no more
expense, the $2 or $2.50 the officials
are getting paid for their duties now,
la bound to keep on. A necessary
evil, we would call It.

Two old, familiar ghosts were pres
ent, but not noted, at the president's
recent press conference when he
talked for twenty minutes on the
subject of raising the purchasing
power of low income groups.
One was the "forgotten man," who
is to receive more attention In
future "fire -side" chat. He has got a
.Ittle out of touch with Washington
since the court fight became such a
distracting Issue.
The other Is a matter about which
another forgotten man, former Gov
ernor Landon. chlded the president
for neglecting conservation of na
tional resources (national planning.)
Some of the states (Including Ver
mont) are running 'way ahead of the
federal government in long-time
planning especially in regard to land
use. The president's Informal re
marks were taken to be a prologue for
more on that subject, with emphasis
;in human resources, perhaps, likewise
over the air.
THE big air liners haven't been
doing so welt lately, frightful ac
cident having followed frightful ac
cident for months on end. A New
York physician claims to have diag
nosed the cause of the accidents.
They are due, he says, to an "air
neurosis" resulting from a deficiency
of oxygen In flying either for a shore
time at high altitudes or tor long
periods of time at moderate alti
tudes. The remedy, he asserts. Is to pro
vide a special supply of oxygen for
tha pilot.
Simple, Isn't It? (Simple, that is.
If It would work.)
MKJEUROSTS" is a fancy, double
ll breasted word affected by doc
tore. It means a disorder of the
nerves. When a pilot files too long
at high altltudea, this New Tork
physician asserts, he gets Into a
"what the hell" attitude (the term
Is the doctor's own) In which It
seems to him that nothing matters
much. As a result, he Is unable to
read his Instruments, keep his sense
of balance or co-ordinate his mus
cles. When this happens, an accident
la pretty certain to follow.
It would be interesting Indeed It
the way to stop these terrible air
crashes turned out to be nothing
more complicated than putting an
oxygen tank in the pilot's compartment.

HAY, GRAIN HURT;
E RAIN 1.47 IN.
Plana for week-end vacations re
ceived a set-back today aa weather
officials forecast a continuation of
the two-weeks long rain. Little hope
was held for clearing weather within
the nrxt few days.
June rainfall stood at 1.47 Inches
this morning, an excess of I Inch
above normal. Although the amount
of ra'.nfall la not unusual for this
month, the storm ts of much lor.gw
than normal duration, weather bur
eau records show.
R. O. Fowler, county agent, re
ported that about a third of the
valley hay and grain crop has been
damaged by the rain. Orchards and
other farm crops benefit by ;Jie
dampness, he added, pointing out
that it Is good "growing weather."
Seasonal deficiency has dropped to
.91 of an Inch.

Comment

By FRANK JENKINS
AMELIA EARHART flew over the
Atlantic the other day, and prac
tlcally nobody paid any attention to
It. That's Interesting, when you stop
to think ot It, and algnltlcant as
well.
When Lindbergh flew the Atlantic,
only a little more than ten yeara
ago, It was the biggest news event
In the world.
AB LONG aa the automobile re
mained a curiosity that drew
crowds wherever It appeared, it was
nothing much but a curiosity. When
a trip of 100 miles without a break
down was good fr a story on almost
any front page, the automobile was
only a rich man's toy. It was only
when automobiles became so com
mon snd so RELIABLE that their
performance was no longer news that
they really became a big factor In
transportstlon.
It will be much the ssme with air
planes. That ts why Amelia Earherta
practically unnoticed flight over
the Atlantic la significant.
