MAJOR MOORE PUTS HIS O. K. ON NEW SCHEME FOR UMPIRES

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

"We must have a new umpire system, and the one put forward by Yale appears perfectly satisfactory to me," said Major F. W. Moore '93 yesterday in referring to a proposed change in the selection of arbiters for the Big Three baseball games.

In the past the major league presidents have appointed the umpires for the big games, but they have refused to continue this practice. Mr. J. T. Blossom, graduate director of athletics at Yale, has proposed that Harvard, Yale, and Princeton have their own umpires and interchange them with one another during a part of the preliminary season. From these men two would be chosen for the crucial series who would be agreeable to all three colleges.

Major Moore had, however, one suggestion to make: "Harvard might choose the umpires for the Yale-Princeton series, Yale for the Harvard-Princeton, and Princeton for the Harvard-Yale. Our main object is to get competent officials. We don't care much who picks them."
