WSthout (luestlon Alanager Power and his followers pioved anythiiL:-c but good sportsmen and they put one in the mind of a child who was denieil i.s way'and refased to play.

Becau.se of this imd because tb. .1. .-ideii , refused to consider the protest lodged againsi Lansdale the Doylestown delegation leU the room with the aiionuncement tha, they were through with the leagu*, which wiLS more evidence of" the un- spi*rtsnian-like methods ot the sealers.
F.nally Ihey  must  have recon.sideieil ¦Ihc'ir decision   to quit  tlie league.    Any how   they  agreed   to slay   if  the  league would   grant   Doylestown   50   i>er of   the   gate   receipts   of  the   game

Crban   and i Brown   answered   that   iihls   was   true, but   when   the   league   had   provided   ah open   date   and     there   was   no     lea-gu.^ ! game    lo    be   played,    Ambler    had , much   right  as   any   <''"b   in   the to   benefit   its   home   town   by   pla.viiig an exhibition game.

During the iiresent season Power, It is said has not lost an opportunity to ¦ride" the Ambler player.i, a,nd espec¬ ially Barfoot. Manager Power ridi¬ culed lhe statements ot the .Vmbler re- presentalives and wound up by making an insultinig remark. It was pointed out tu the members that what lhe> had seen and heard Is the character ot the attitude Power usually assumes when   Dovleslown   and   Ambler   met.
