Tho Metropolitan leagtje will furnish local amateur followers two twin ex hibitions this afternoon of exceptional caliber in which the Nebraska Tires and the Woodmen of the World will twist in tho feature contest at Fon tenelle park with the first encounter starting at l:30i The outcome of this double affair will likely go high on the ladder in determining the hold er of first, place in the Class "A" standings when the loop splits into the two divisions next weok. The Woodmen are holding the lead over the Tiremen by half a game and a double win for the Lodgemen will knot the leadership of the iietro loop providing the Dhl-lts win from the Standard Laundry at Muny Beach. Should the two teams split the fea ture hill they will be knotted for the ruhner up position, while a repeated win for the Nebraskans will put them ahead of the W. O. W. In the percent column. Two Games at Athletic Park. Athletic park will be the scene of the minor double header when the Schneider Electriccs and the U. I’. Enginemen mix twice during the aft ernoon. The two cellar nines will fight it out for supremecy in the lower berth. The Knights of Columbus and the Walter G. Clarks meet at Miller park In a game of much promise at 3:30. The Laundry Murphy mix at Muny beach ranks high in the Interest of the en thusiasts as the two teams are jul'o. evenly matched. The Paxton Billiards, with the American gonaflon safely tucked away, should have little trouble In turning back the Western Union, al I though the Messengers, with a near- 1 , new lineup, are planning to kick the j <1npe at the feature hour at River * view. The Kinney Shoes and the Betsy Boss should combat on about ' even terms at 3:30 p. m. at Dewey ! field, while last week's upsetters, the I Postofflee Employes, attempt to con tinue their comeback against the 'carter Lnke club on the latter's dia mond. Boosters Meet Corrs. The West Side Boosters, leaders **of the Southern loop, by a mere game, lead, will he forced to extend them ■ selves against the Corr Electrics from “ recent showings of the two t*ams In order to retain the top notch ' when they clash at West Elmwood at 3:30. East Elmwood will be the scene of hot confab between the Omaha Camp and the ‘’coming'’ Union Stockmen at the feature hour, while the V. M. H. A. sits idle with a forfeit from the Christ Children. The feature contest carded for the Class C performers is between the Leavenworth Merchants and the ■ Naples Banks at Miller park in the ,, opener. The Banks wiU have their v chance to step into second place by ca win over the present holders, while ,A win for the Merchants will narrow the Barkers' lead on first place should they defeat the Brown J’arks at Rlvervlew. The Vlntons anrl* the Vlhrlst Child test st Dewey field has much promise, while the De Molays And the Sherman Merchants should have no trouble in winning from their opponents. l . c longest Fresh Water Har e ■ Gets Under Way at Chicago 1 Chicago, July 21.—The longest afresh water race in the world got n under way shortly after 4 o'clock this afternoon when the schooner •Wendameen”, with Jack Handley, vet ,|eran yachtsman, at the wheel, wont | ''••over the line as ^he first of a field 0if 17 starters to get away in tho 16th | annual Mackinac cup race.

The eniire roster of Class "A" players will he classed as professional after the ruling goes Into effect unless some change or reconsidera of the question Ir brought about. The Murphy-Phl-Ilts, who ot present lead the loop, u>*em to be hardest pressed by the recent action being on the verge of losing Manager Mahoney, Bokusek. Allen and Volf Tho l'ld-Its have a younger aggregation, and the college ath letes are anxious to uphold their amateur ntan<TTngn while In school. McGrath, hurl rr for the Enginemen. is also considering dropping out unless a change is brought about. Mancuso of the Murpliy nine will likely he seen back at ins old position on the leaders' crew- after today, having re covered rapidly following an operation several weeks ago. Mancuio'g third base position was filled by Hal Redden. He hit the apple well and may keep the hot corner job and Mancuso be sent to the outfield. The Betsy Ron* team of the American loop seems to be giving much assistance to the Class "A" teams.% Three of their stellar performers have gone up in nma* teurdom thus far thin season. The latest is .Simpson, who has been signed by Eddie Dodd of the Standard Laundry nine. Shan ahan has recently entered the K. C. roster and Redden came from the Betsy team early in th© seuson. In his first appearnnee In a Knights of Columbus uniform, Shanahan showed he had a right In ClasN “A" ball. Tom held first base during the first part of the tilt against the Woodmen last Sunday and was sent to the mountain to twirl for the last, three frames. He held the W. O. W a scoreless and allowed the sluggers but two. scant hits. Doc Kelley says he has more “smoke" than any player his age in Omrha. The V. I*. Kngineman have signed their twenty-eighth player of the season. Theo dore Koz.t has scratched on the dotted line for Manager Fernando and will be seen in action in the Infield this after noon. Following tile Muny directors meet lest week President Pressman of th* Metro loop announced that he would attempt to get Lindberg reinstated in local amateur (Ircles as soon as possible.

The Presbyterians re mained at the top of the Southern Church loop by virtue of this win, while the Memorials slipped into a tie for third place witl^the Dietz Me morials, whe had an easy time in win ning from the First Chrlstinr*t at Athlet e paik. The Wheeiers led the feature twist by a score of 6 to 4 until the North erners came to hat in the ninth, when a slugging rally was started. Pitcher Maxwell kept the Kirsch braun slate clean in the Creamery group when he set the David Cole team, runners up Jn that division, down with but two safe hits lo win by a score of 4 to 1 at Carter lake. The Hardings rose to the 60-i»0 stand in the presnt rolumn when they out classed the Fairmonts, 10 to 7.

The Baker Ice Machine company made an entrance appearance into the Indusfrial league_yesterday afternoon, winning their initial encounter from the Swifts by a score of 8 to 0 at Muny beach. The Bakers are filling the Nebraska-Iowa Steel franchise until the end of the season. The Omaha Police still hold top notch post when they were idle, drawing a bye. The Cudahy nine practiced up a bit at the cost of the lj. S. Rubber outfit when they batted around eight times and scored a 24 to 5 win. The Guaran tee Lifes continued to slip when the Omaha Steels battled them to a 9 to 9 knot after seven innings, when„tl e test ceased by Agreement. The Oma ha Prints continued to rise in the second half by trouncing the Omaha Nationals. 18 to 8. The Pearl Memorials remained on top of tbe North Church scramble by winning from tbe Walnut Hills when Maney West allowed but four s-ant hits and struck out 20. While win ning for his mates, 5 to 2, West set a new fan record for the single gunt'’ In nmateurdom for this season. Tue highest registered previous was 18, hy Cress of the North Presbyterians. The Olivets kept ahead of their op ponents when they triumphed over the Clifton Hillers in a close 9 to 8 decision.

Old Time Amateurs Tame a Team of Modern Young Sandlot Stars "We can always beat the young sters." challenged a group of old time amateur players to a gathering of present day simon pures. So an other page of baseball history In the vicinity of Sixteenth and Vinton streets began to form when It was arranged that Chris Kemmy. former Rambler star, should organize the old-timers, while Jim Skomal took upon himself the responsibility of gathering together a group of youths to take the cockyness out of the old men. Kemmy called his team Pyke’s Ath letics and signed Joe Hoftr, formerly of the old Invlncibles. to do the hurl ing, and Frank Brodbeck of the old Spauldings to do the receiving. Bill Brodbeck of the Luxus team began to llml>er up around first base, Her man Gernant of the old South Side Sluggers took shortstop, Charlie Hoye of the Luxus, second base, and Chris himself took the hot corner. Lew Kohler and Vic Mayher of the old Spauldings and Jerry Herrington of the Invinclbies completed the team by chaaing flies. The big game was called for Ath letic park last Sunday morning. At the seventh inning the old timers were leading, 3 to 2. They wouldn't give in and ended the struggle on the long end of a 9 to-3 score. The old timers clouted the- ball for nine safeties while tfce kids collected sev en off Joe Hofer. • So for another year the youngsters in the vicinity of Sixteenth and Vin ton streets must sit quiet while their older brothers chin among them selves about how much better the game used to be played. Kane Denies Report That Gibbons Received $23,000 for July 4 Fight St, Paul, Minn., July 21.—Reports from Omaha that Tommy Gibbons had received $23,000 for his fight with Jack Dempsey, world's heavy weight champion, at Shelby, Mont., July 4, were emphatically denied to day by Kddte Kane, Gibbons' mana ger. "Gibbons did not receive one cent,” Kane said. "He was paid his training expenses an<\ that money went to de fray the cost, of his camp and spar ring partners. His only source of revenue will be from the motion pic tures. Tommy Gibbons Matched to Fight battling S.ki in New York City Soon New York. July 21.—Tom Gibbons, light heavyweight of St. Paul, who gave Jack Dempsey a stiff battle at Shelby. Mont., has been matched to fight Battling Sikl. Sencgaleee heavy weight, in a 15-round bout at the Yankee stadium. It was learned to day. The date has not yet been de cided. Tommy Denies It. St. Paul, Minn., July 2!—A report from New York that Tommy Gib bons of St. Paul had been matched to meet Battling Slkl was denied here tonight by Gibbons. Gibbons de clar'd he had never considered fight ing Sikl and never would. "Gibbons will not fight Sikl, or any other negro," said Eddie Kane, Gib bons’ manager. "Gibbons and I are opposed to mixed matches," continued Kane. "W« have been flooded with offers from promoters all over the country. I but the match we want most Is a return contest with Champion Jack Dempsey, the sooner the better. Tommy and I are certain that he will beat Dempsey wtih an Impartial referee in the ring and under rules different from those governing the fight at Shelby. "If Tommy does any fighting in the ligh* heavyweight class he will prefer a match wtih Mike McTigue, holder of the world's title. Next to that he would like to fight Oer.e Tun ney, light heavyweight champion of America. "Alexander Pantages has consented to give Gibbons a release of four weeks from h;a vaudeville contract to train for a fight of importance, but if we accept a match under these conditions the promoter in charge of the fight will have to pay Gibbons JIO.OOO which he otherwise would loose by the layoff. "I hope Tex Rickard or some other promoter will be able to rematch Gib bons and Itempsey for Labor Day.” Gibbons and Kane will leave next week to continue their vaudeville tour on the Pacific coast. Tom will begin in an engagement at Spokane, Wash., July 29. Detroit Has New Track for Grand Circuit Meeting Detroit.
