Engine men and they lost hy a 6 to 0 score last night at Fontenelle park. Shana han on the mound for the K. C.s was not as effective as Conkling of the Enginemen who pitched shutout ball the entire seven frames of the twi light affair. This loss narrows the lodgement’s lead in the second division to two games over the Schneider Electrics who turned in a win over the W. G. Clarks. Kibler pitching his third game for the week held the Clarks to three lonely bingles. as well as striking out five In the Innings he pitched. In the third inning he practically won his own game by knocking a homer with one on. The'loss by the Clarks places them in a tie for the cellar position with tho Enginemen, who if they con tinue to play the same brand of ball as they have of late, will probably step out of the bottom where they have been ajl year.

By “WAG." ARNEY BURCH, owner of the Omaha Buf ! faloes, isn’t likely to peddle any players to . ! the majors this year. It’s a cinch he hasn’t j got any slaves of the diamond who will bring ; the price the Chicago Cubs paid for George i Grantham. But Burch Isn't alone. There aren't so many promis ing prospects in the league this season. However, there O are several players scattered about the circuit who should be ripe for faster company this fall, with a few hurlers worthy of major league Inspection in the 1924 spring training trips. Omaha hasn't got any performers who are likely to "go up." as they say in baseball parlance. Joe Bono witz, centerfielder, is the best fly-hawk in the circuit, but he isn't a hard hitler, and to lie a major leaguer one must hit as well as play his position. Speece May Go l |> Byron Speece, pitcher, might get a trial next spring, but another year in the minors wouldn't hurt Byron one bit. He is young, strong and has all the stuff required of a pitcher but ex periences This he can only get by years of service on the diamond. | Harry Bee is another Buffalo hurler who is attracting the attention of the scouts. Harry came up here from the Texas league. He is a quiet sort of person and a fine chap. Besides this. Bee is a good pitcher, about the best Omaha has at present. He has good control and plenty of stuff on the ball. He isn’t much of h hitter, but every once in awhile manages to con nect for a hit. He has one home run to his credit this season. Out at Denver, Manager Gilbert, has two prospects in Mahlon Higb'e, outfielder, and Olin Voight. Both men, so we understand, belong to the Giants. Higbee Is proving himself a dandy outfielder: can hit and field in good style. Voight has hurled some excellent ball for the Bears. His sea son’s record should be considered. Voight is hurling for a tail-end club, but he doesn't seem to mind it. Three Witches Have Chance. The Wichita club has three players we think are eligible to advance high er. Johnny Conlan, outfielder. Is one and P.tchers Maun and Lefty Sellars are the other two. Conlan is one of the best outfielders in the league. He can hit and run liases well and his fielding is cons;s Ak-Sar-Ben Fall Races Draw Excellent Entries Secretary Charles D. Trimble of the Ak-SarBen exposition has been informed that eight car loads of run ning horses will be shipped from Vancouver to Omaha on August 2S to take part in the fall running meet ing here in September. William Dondas, mutuel secretary, has advised Trimble that there will be 10 to la tars of Kentucky hors-s shipped here late in August on their way to the Tiajuana, Mexico, meeting. Field (Jul* to Construct New Green on No. 15 Hole A new green in place of the pres- ! ent on* at N’o. la is to be constructed at the Omaha Field club th s winter, according to plans announced yester day. Th* new green will be placed east of the present one and slanted toward the player. The present one slopes away from the oncoming shot. Trimble to Be Secretary of Speed at Aurora .Meet Ctmrle* J, Trimble, secretary of the Ak-Sar-Ben Exposition ■company. !ca\es tonight for Aurora. 111., where he will act as sp--ed secretary at the Great Weslorn circuit harness meet ing which opens there Saturday. tent, tfotn me nurlers are worth look ing over.ar.d, no doubt, will get a chance to show their wares before some major league manager neat spring. Of course, that is if Baldy Is bell wants to let ’em go. Oklahoma City has a crooked arm In Emil Yde, who should develop Into a major leaguer within a few years. He is hard to beat when he's right and the fact that Emil is young and strong add to his favor. He is one pitcher in the Western who can hit. He's batting third in the league toda^,»^, and thus far has clouted out two home runs. He is a good flekling pitcher and a mighty good man to have around a club, as he has hit safely plenty of times in a pinch. Horan Hard Hitter. This J6e Horan. Des Moines out fielder. who is leading the league In slugging, seems like a natural hitter. He Is about ripe for inspection and we believe he will get a chance to advance before the Enow flies. Joe is a dandy fellow personally and easy to get along with. He covers his position in the field well, too. Then there is little Eddie Moore up in Sioux City. Eddie is an out fielder by trade and a good one at that. He can run the sacks like a jackrabbit and he swings a mean hat while .at the plate. He is about the best performer among the Packers, in our humble estimation. Dudley Lee, snappy little shortstop with Tulsa, is another inflelder who should advance. The St. Louis Browns and the Oilers are good friends and the chances are that if Dudley goes any where he will Journey to St. Louis. No doubt but what there are other players in the circuit who are playing "hangup ball. The fans appreciate the brand of ball displayed by the players, but they never begrudge a fellow ad vancing in his business. We hope they all advance.
