EXCEPTION TAKEN TO
CALLING GAME COMEDY
JUNEAU, Ala'ka, Aug. J.—To the
Sporting Editor, Alaska Daily Ern
pite: It is the sincere licpc of the
meu on the Explorer, who played
the Junoau Fire Department base
‘ ball team on August 7, that no
member of the lart mentioned team
ie lr.ptnsible for the report of the
r'amt that appeared in The Empire
on the 8tli.
The Explorer team was out-gen
| eraldcd in every department of the
I game but took the beating in good
part—demanding no more than the
raurtery due a team that did its
; best against odds and lost fairly,
t It has gone on record that bettor
tcant3 in this locality have lest on
ar great a margin with no less
reward than credit for at least a
try. We also hope that the penman
of the article has sines felt the
■ weight of a guilty conscience.
J (Signed) •'HILARIOUS FAN.”
--
(Note: Apparently the reporter
who covered the game did not real
j izc that the Explorer team took the
' sport so seriously. Certainly had
, ho done so the game would have
I been covered play by play even
1 Though it required the service of a
! corps of competent stenographers
ito keep track of the switches in the
‘ lineup, batting order and personnel
I of the players. It was probably this
•continuous shift that caused the re
l porter to conclude the game was
• being considered in a humorous vein
| —a grievious error. And he has
| asm red the sporting editor that he
i has felt the weight of a guilty con
science—lots of times — and has
j sworn repeatedly never to touch
i fhat vile—that is, never to go to
j another amateur ball game. Ed.)
