Under all of this persuasion

~the M & S Orange azreed to

play under the following ~onditions:

1. They refused re p'ay
against a suspended player,
upon the statement of Mr. Jim
Reid, that the Dow Chernnical
team did not have a suspended
player.:

2. Since the M & 5S Orange
team owed a game to the Dow
Chemical in Midland and st -ce
there were 4,200 people there
to see the game, if Al Linde

was not under suspension then

iM & S Orange would have

been suspended for wiihdraw
ing from the field~ without
cause,

It can easily b= said that
sports writers in Fli-t have

been favorable to M & S's side
of the story. As we said-at the
beginning of the article it is
much involved but the mos: calient thing about the who'e
thing is that: there were -ix
commissioners on the commission. It is reported that all of
these men are interested in
some way in teams in M & ~S's
classification. M & S ~ke~rg

It is further said that theere is.

Campbell~ and his superb band
The show wes. handled by the

hearsaly. The Flint management was detérmined not to
play a game against a suspended player.

Here Mr. McDonald played |
his trump card. He called Mr.
Jim Reid, one of the comm~ssioners from that district. Mr.
Reid told M & S Orange that
ie had no noti~:ation of~ Al
iLinde~s suspension. He = further ~stated that if~ there: w:s

> question about the game
ing played he would absolve
i Orangemen. of all blame.
MI & S refused to play. At this
instant the maipires were called. They listenea to what Mr.

an?

not a team in the league whici:
jhan *t done the same thing,

Our conclusiors are that Mr.
Ic~inson and his team had a_
job to do and that they did it
creditably, Fut sine it is obvicus that there is a cons>iracv, they will have to pay the
mrice; It is the duty of every
Flint citizen and sportsman to
get solidly behind M & S Orange and bo!ster their cause
wherever they ean.
