Yesterday’s meeting of the base
ball league directors, called to
consider the protest by the Al
askans of the last Nome-Alaskan j
game, voted to allow the protest
which was based on the legality
of the final score. The meeting
then adjourned without further
action pending team meetings of
the squads concerned.
The action of the directors
means that, unless the protest is j
withdrawn or that some other
nullifying action is taken, at some
future time a half inning or a j
full game must be played to set-'
tie the dispute.
In the meantime, the regular j
league schedule will proceed as I
planned. The Commercials play
the Alaskans and Hammons meet
Nome in Wednesday’s doublehead
er.
