' - Through the efforts of the News and Observer, Raleigh geta a game-which the Red Birds thought she had lost, and consequently Gokkboro la com pelled to add a gmc to her lost col umn.

Rule; 22 of the Base-Bait rules ' plainly says, that champion-ship games shall be started two hours befpre sun set. Manager Davy Crockett who by the ", way knows baseball from -A to Z, was the wle owl In. this event for immed iately after the first game he had about eight Giants pitching the ball to-ach other including the pitchers . who were warming up and this had the.4 effect which Davy wanted to produce in making the fans, who had already moved their seats and started v for ; home. i clamor for the second game to start. Manager Crosier did not call his men out at all until they had decided the game , was' to atart. However, this is nothing'-now and Davy the wise one will JJnd out that his slick move will! not get him anything as the game will not be played over but will be awarded to Raleigh who won it 2 to 0.. The best recognized sporting author- . tty in this country is Mr.' J. Ed Grllo of the YVashlngton Post-The1 matter is answered by the Washington Post of -July 17th which Is reprinted here.

On account " of a P tponed game-a double: header is played. ut the loser of the second game protests the same under Rule -7, it hat every championship ' game ' shall be started two hours before sun down. The first game was started at 3 o'clock, but - as It took fifteen In nings : to settle.' the second game was started after 6 o'clock and was flnal- . ly called in the seventh, owing to dark ness. Should not the flritt nm have been stopped two hours before sun set, as a double header was determin ed upon 7 2. What time do the major leagues siart their double header? 3. Is their any record of either a Na tional or American T . am stopping an extra Inning tie game of me nrst aoublo header In order to take up the second game two hours before sunset? 4.' When the. first game had gone fifteen innings and the home team saw that it was later than two hours before sunset, should they ; - not have refused to play? 5.

The right to protest is given the clubs by the constitutions of the va- " rious leagues The' rules make no auch provision, they only state how the - game shall be played. When there is a violation of the rales by the ura- . plre there is ground for protest. After reading these questions and clear cut answers entirely showing- the 4 game belongs to Raleigh. It seems Impossible for any fan. director. Vice .i-resiaeni or president or the East , era Carolina League to decide any , thing else but that game, should go to Raleiyhu The authority of y the . Washington Post is without a doubt unquestionable for they pay a repre sentative an enormous salary to keep ud on such questions and he has all . the decisions, rules, and -r everything pertaining , to , Base Ball at his , el bo iv.

An eminent authority has put this construction on' the . rule as you will see from the enclosed clipping here with, from the Washington Post. We are therefore fully convinced more than ever that we are justly en titled to this game, which we won, and believe you will agree with us that the Washington Post Is considered good authority on such matters, and will therefore have to -ask that you recon sider your action In this matter, and advise us Immediately what you will do. otherwise in Justice--to ourselves, we win be obliged to ask the National Commission to -pass on the matter. .
