By RALPH WAGNER. — — ICK C’ULLOP was in fine form yesterday and the Buffa loes nearly knocked the Sioux City Packers hack into Iowa, slamming out a 11 to 1 victory over the lowans from up north and incidentally climbed up a notch In - — the league standings. The herd jumped on rttcher Rasmussin of Sioux City good and plenty. The Buffaloes clouted out five doubles and OP "Pug" Griffin got a home run with one on in the eight. Two members of the herd stole bases, Griffin pilfering a pair of sacks. All in all It was a gala day for the home hoys, and once they got Into the lead they hit. the ball like teal sluggers. Cullop was on the filing line for Omaha and turn ed In his second victory for his mates, Nick had one *ff(l inning and that was the first, but after the initial round Cullop sailed along in daddy fashion, striking out six lowans and allowing eight very, very scattered . hits. Three of the eight Sioux City hits were doubles and two of them cante in the first inning when Tom Fail-weather’s club scored its one and only run of the afternoon. Twice Nick got into tight places, once in the sixth with two on and again in the eight with the same number of Packers on tile bags, hut each time his mates gave him good support and he helped matters by pitching w inning ball and retired the sides without any damage. Iowan Hit Hard. « On the otliPr hand, Ttasmussin of Sioux City was hit hard in spots. The Iowan waa nicked for an even dozen hits. In the fourth round when the herd scored five runs, "Ras” coughed up 4 four hits and again in tlio eighth when the Buffaloes tallied four runs, the visiting h u r 1 e r “ a 1 lowed four, bingles. His sup- :■ port, especi ally | on the part of the S outfielders, was I good. The lone Sioux * City run came in , the first when McDonald doubled the right and scor ed on Palmar's double to left. Car lisle singled before Palmar's double, but Cullop tightened and whiffed tho next two Packers, retiring the side. Omaha went runless until tho sec ond when Eonowitz doubled to center. Hewent to third on an infield out and scored when Griffin doubled to left. The herd took the lead right away from Sioux City In the very next inning when Cullop singled. Apperson sacrificed Nick to second and the latter scored on McDonald's single to right. Big Inning for Herd. Tho big Buffalo inning was the fifth. In this round the herd bat ted around. DeFate was an easy out to “Dinty" Moore, but Konetchy dou bled to left. A wild pitch sent “Koney" to third and a fielder's choice scored Konetchy and put Grif fin on first, “Pug" pilfered second and took third when Hale singled to right. Cullop skied to Taylor, mak ing two down, but Apperson poked a single to right, and when Brokaw was decidding what to do with tho pellet. Griffin stole homo with the second score. Wilcox's double regis tered Hale and Appersou and then came the prize “boner” of the after noon. McDonald knocked an easy fly to Taylor, who, by the way, recent . ly joined Sioux City from the White Sox. Taylor Juggled “Te's” fly, finally allowing the pellet to slip from hla mitts. While ajl of this was go ing on W'llcox came home with the fourth run of the inning. Bonowltz flew to second and the rally ended. The herd was unbale to tocuh Rasmussin for a hit again until the eighth when it counted four more runs, again batting around. DcFate failed to connect tn four times up, but Konetchy singled to left. Griffin's homer over the right field fence scor ed a couple of tallies. Hale skied out to center and Cullop go In the way of one of Rasmussin's curves. Apperson's singles shoved Cullop up a base and then Wilcox worked the Iowan for a base on balls, filling the hags. McDonald's two-ply blow to right scored Cullop and Appersnn with the last two runs of the game. Bono witz failed to connect and the in ning ended. Play This Afternoon. In the ninth Sioux City put a man on second on a single and an er ror, but the next two Iowans were easy outs and the game was over. The same clubs play this afternoon. Stephen Beats A! Calm. Ralph Stephen, state three-cushion billiard champ, defeated Albert Cahn, undefeated state champ, in the first of a two-match series at the Omaha Athletic club last night. The score was 50 to 26.

Firpo-Willard Fight a “Natural” Mitt Contest—Worked Itself Out By DAVIS .1. WAI.SH, International News Nenlr* sports l^lltor. YORK, May 16.— Rickard's luck, they call It. but any man with an eye to accuracy would know It under any of a dozen terms, in eluding ability, acumen. Initiative. Rickard, wo pre presume, was lucky to have •a* Jess Willard and Luis Flrpo develop inio heavyweight championship contenders of such prominence that they were matched almost automatically for a. bout to be held "on or before July 7.” In signing Willard and Flrpo, Rick ard once more has fallen prey to a "natural,” a fight that needs no ex hortation. Some other promoter might have lined up this great moneymaker but did not. Why? Rickard's luck, according to mrdlocrltes and failures. Smart business men, however, acknowledge the promoter's success sa the product of commercial situat dealing and a reputation for making as | money for those with whom he is as I sociated. ■fra* Always With To*. "I listened to other promoters,' Willard said in hla slow, careful way, after signing, "but when it come* to n question of signing articles for a fight, I do business with Tex Rick ard." That Rickard's "luck" has found another gold mine. In the meeting of this pair, cannot lie doubted. Willard, because of his tremendous hulk, Is always Interesting. Further than that. Ills popularity has become great because mass psychology Is always with the man attempting a Comeback. They like to look at Flrpo for other reasons, of which curiosity Is upper most. Ills popularity needs no un natural stimulus such as Willard’s. A Strong Personality. Take the latter out of the fight j game and he Is Just a big, lazy blob I of a man with slight personality and , no color at all. The sen or simply breathes personality ami the crowd around Rickard's office late jester 'day acknowledged this by stumbling along at his heels for s< venil blocks, ,110111 In si If defense he was forced , ipto a cab. »> . - ■ ■' ■ ■ ■ " —.1 ■■■ - 1 1 ■ — ——— ' !

Kentucky derby, that famous * turf classic of the Kentucky Downs comes into another appear ance at the historic track here Satur day, a remarkable open event, in the opinion of horsemen. Owners of high-class thoroughbreds on which money has been spent In conditioning today were sorrowfully admitting, lack of condition, lack of class or gen- j eral cussedness among the horses they had planned to send to the bar rier. The state of affairs, however, is not surprising. Every year, as prices are hammered down or allowed to soar In the winter hooka, horses are either up or down in the estimation of the handicappers as the race date grows near. There are not many horses of sufficient stamina to go through a conditioning process neces sary to the heavy work of a derby. One Western Horse. As matters now stand it appea s that about 18 horses will be at the webbing when it goes up next Satur day to'battle for the honor of hav ing won the derby and for the trifling matter of $->0,000 or so. And among the 18 interest is slowly and surely being forced hack to re spect for the Whttney-Greentree quar tet of entries, where the winter books wisely had placed it. Aside from these most of the talk hangs about one western horse. Bo McMillan. En chantment and Chick Tale both are holding the attention of rail birds since a snappy workout yesterday over a very muddy track. Each horse swam through the mire in clever fash ion. Cherry Pie and Rialto went on the track together and the quartet were to be hack today. ' igu on Edge. . The wise birds are not overlooking the luck and shrewdness of E. R.
