Nevertheless, Henry is successful many just and equitable, nor does he fly off the handle as too umpires do when tie nagging gets too tropical. In fact, there are times when you can call Henry anything or almost ever- ythingand he won't penalize you but there are a few things that are his limit past them you must not go. Two or three years ago, on a burning, broiling August afternoon the Cubs were eneaeed in redhot battle with the 13 in Giants. Close plays and consequently close decisions were thick as leaves autumn; tempers were being badly frayed, ana the atmosphere was surcharged with trouble. After two or three innings of this stuff, the players on both sides began to take out their spite upon the umpires. They gave special attention to Hank O'Day, who was behind the plate. The batters averred that Henry gave the an area eight feet square to pitch in, everything within that distance being called a strike, ana the pitchers asserted that Henry wouldn't call a strike even if the batter swung upon it.
