Hamey suspended Leibold for five days and fined him $100 and the two umpires who Soke: game, Forrest Peters and Milt Steengrafe, promptly resigned from their posi+ tions because they felt the punishe ment was too light. According to the report submitted to Bramham, Peters called a Logis« ville runner out in the final inning

of the first game of a double-header.-

Leibold ran out on to the fi§ld and began to protest, blocking Peters’ path to the dressing rooth and

| winding up by swinging at him.

Peters said the blow struck him in the neck. Peters ordered Leibold to stay out lof the second but the Louisville | manager ignored the order and stayed on the Bed,
