Tony Defate and Barney Burch Play Exciting Pool Game for Malted Milk v__.__ This ■fs a yarn about, an owner of a championship baseball club and one of thebest.short e t o p s In the Western league. The owner of ♦ he ball club Is Barney Burch The shortstop Is Tony Dsfste, who jumped the Omaha club in 19:5 to play out law baseball, but who Is mighty anxious to get back into or ganised base ball. Defat* is s p e n d 1 ng the winter working at the Paxton billiard parlors. Yesterday Burch walked Into the establishment and hurled a challenge to a game of pocket, billiards or the like, right into Tony's face. A goodly crowd wag In the room and Defate couldn't stand to be challenged before all his friends so accepted Barney's proposi tion. The stake wag a malted milk. The game got under way and Defate, who wields a mean billiard cue, shot out in the lead. Before the pair reached 50 points, a large crowd surrounded the table. Defate won the first game, 100 to TO. Burch couldn't stand to be de feated by one of his employes so challenged Defate to another game of 100 points. Defate felt sort of sorry for his boss so eased up and allowed Burch to win the second game, 100 to 35. So that ends this yarn. f ' ■ --- \ Owner of Lincoln Club May Buy Vernon Team j V- J Los Angeles, Cal., Jan. 13.—Larry Arnold, owner of the Lincoln club of the Western league, and Fred Clark, former manager of the Pittsburgh Pirates, are Interested In purchase of a Pacific coast baseball club, prefer ably Vernon, Josh Clark, manager of the Lincoln team, said here today. Arnold Is In Los Angeles to discuss terms. WON WORLD’S MAT TITLE. TIS really too bad Wayne (Big) Munn won the world's heavy weight wrestling champion ship. Yes, 'tls too bad. Just think, if Munn had not won the title Joe Stecher and Charley Hansen would not have anything to squawk ab|>ut. We agree along with a lot of other folk that the so called wrestling trust might have had something to do with Munn winning the championship. The same trust probably had a lot to do with Joe Stecher when he was at the top of the heap. We can also he listed among those humans who believe that Charley Hansen stands a mighty good chance of heating Munn in a fin ish match, although Charley hasn't thrown anyone who would le^d ns to believe that he could throw Munn, a man weighing in the neigh borhood of 3(10 pounds. As far as Joe Steelier Is concerned he hasn't thrown any wrestler* of note since he quit the *o-ralled "trust,” following his losing the championship to the older Zbyszko some years ago. Munn hasn’t been In the wrestling game very long and naturally doesn’t know all the finer point* of tlie game. He probably didn’t have to know them to win the champion- 1 | ship. Anyway. Munn was strong enough to lift Lewis, a husky Indi vidual, off tile floor and toss him about file ring. So, we say in all fairness to Munn, give "Big" credit for being strong. Aa we stated earlier. Hansen may be able to throw Munn. Stecher might do the same, but that remalna to he seen. Stecher and Haneen are no second Gotch'a. Hansen comes nearer to being a Gotch than any one else, If you want to believe "Farmer" Burns. Of ail the sport fraternity the wres tlers do more harking bark and forth among themselves and get less re sults than any other set of athletes, and that Includes flghlers and their managers. ' OMAHA FIGHTERS* SEEM TO RE POPULAR IN CALIFORNIA.

That is why so many millions of mothers now depend entirely upon Vtrks for croup and children's colds. There is nothing to swallow—you Just rub Vicks over the throat and chest at bedtime and cover with a warm flannel, leaving the bedclothes loose about the neck so that the arising vapors may he freely inhaled. The child ia usually batter the neit morning. Vicks can he used freely and often with perfect safety, even on the youngest member of the family. Overt 17 Miluoh Jars Used Yearly ~ -- miy Herman, ,iacK newis Heavy weight, visited the coast late last year and made a hit. In fact, he made ■uch a hit that he and his manager are going back to sunny California. Are Iltidltins, the Nebraska light weight, lias had only two fights in Cslifornia hut those two scraps put Are right in the renter of the frpot light. Now there is talk of Iltiifklns meeting Joe Benjamin, the class of the California lightweights. The latest fistic news from Holly wood. Cal., deals with Morrie Schlaifer. Larry Hunt, manager of the Culver City stadium, in an article appearing In a Los Angeles newspaper, states that he has Morrie Schlaifer under I contract and is endeavoring to land Jock Malone as an opponent for the Omaha scrapper. COMMISSIONER KAVAN MAKES (1001) SI'GGESTION. ILL" KAVAN. city boxing rX commissioner comes forth with the suggestion that instead of having one boxing com missioner here there should be a committee of three. In our opinion. Kavau's sugges tion is a good one. No one knows any better than Mr. Kavan how hard it Is to rule the hosing situa tion In this town. The ' opposition the commissioner received from numerous parties made the job hard to handle. With e committee of three acting as a boxing commission, Kavan opines that the game in Omaha would lie run on a much better basis and that better shows would be the result. ART GRIGGS EXPECTS BIG SEASON WIT HBl FFAEOES. ART GRIGGS, the popular man ager of the championship Omaha Buffaloes last season, in ft letter to the writer says he is having a good time in Los Angeles and wishes all his Omaha friends a happy New Year. Jn the letter Art also says that he expects to pilot another cham pionship team in 1925 and at tho same time have a good year playing first bsse. Chicago Anxious to See Nurmi and Ray Run Chicago. J»n, 13.—Because of the demand for tickets for the Illinois A. C. Indoor meet Friday in which Paavo Nurmi and Willie Ritola, the Finns, compete with Joie Ray, It may be necessary to shorten the track from 10 to 12 laps. Charles A. Dean, chairman of the I. A. C. athletic com mittee, has announced. The 10-lap track, longer than the one which Nurmi recently made his t ecord breaking performances In New York, was considered as likely to bring about faster time by the run nets. Distances of the dashes and hurdles have been shortened from 60 to 50 yards. Athletes numbering 261, will com ; ete in the various meets. Cards Drill for Kearney Came WITH their spirits still rankling under the defeat received at the hands of Doane college last Thursday night, the t’nlverslty of Ontaha Cardinals tore through a hard practice game against the Cal vary Baptist church league team Monday night with a file that looked good to Coath Adams and the on looking fans. The Cards displayed the same Kind of snappy passing that featured their work against Iloane, and shots dropped through the basket so fre quently that Coarh Adams was heard to wish a few of them had been made last Thursday at Crete. Tlie Calvary team played a clever game, but were unable to jmeket their allots, most of which were taken from the sidelines, due to Omaha's close guarding. Maurice Vest and Cletus TTeinisch looked good against the Calvaries, and displayed a clever brand of team work in getting the hall through the defense of the opponents. Rill Ho ward and Cliff llanirn also showed up well and are liable to get In for a while against Kearney Frldey night. Anderson had ills eye for the hoop polished up bright last night, and dropped in baskets from all parts of the floor, while Slater anti Cowan dropped in some pretly shots, as well as playing a good floor game. Meek was in tile fray with his usual scrap,I hut was a liltle off form on basket! work. Krogh covered tlie hark guard! territory in good shape, and htoks better there every day. Coach Adams did some figuring sfter the Doane disappointment, and found that if the Cards had made all the free throws awarded them, the victory would have been dangling «t their belts. As a conse.quencc, he has ordered that 350 free throws ha made between now and Friday night by every man on the squad. Adams realises that game* are won and lost through free throw a, and he means to have every man able to taka ad vantage of this means of boasting the Cardinal score sheet. f ', Important Boxing Bouts This ITeok v _/ Jan. 14—Ynunf Mrihllni ajealn*!

They were Billy Bayne and George Blae holder. Blaeholder Is a youngster with his “future before him," as the saying goes, and if he steps along the path of progress the next year or two as fast as he lias in the last two years his name will be more familiar than it is today. Also If Hlaehnlder develops In his pitching as fast as he has in the ways of the world in general he will make the baseball world sit up and take notice, putting It that way. Probably no greener kid or rawer baseball prospect ever showed up In a hig league's spring training ramp than was this young German boy when Jimmy Austin dragged liltn In for Inspection in the spring of 1913. Jimmy had picked hint off the sand hills in California, was struck with something about him, so loaded him on a train when reporting time came. It was the first time Blaeholder ever had seen the Inside of a Pull man and the waggish Austin pulled the old joke of making him believe the hammock In his berth was to rest his arm in while sleeping on the train. George fell for it. He was just as In noeent of haseball culture. They say he did not know how to stand on the pitcher's plate, which was not sur prising. as he confessed he never had seen a "regular slab" before. He furnished a lot of comedy in that spring's ramp with his mid ways and his German dialect. When the season opened he wss sent to Terre Haute in the Three.I league to have some polish put on him. He. did well enough, though lie rame hack complaining they didn't show him "noddlngs” about how to pitch. The Browns took him to ramp again in the spring of 1924 and he was put through another course of sprouts. Then out again he went. This time lie came to the Oilers and made a record of winning 18 games and losing hut six. The season in the Western ended he made a trip hack to the Browns for his winter orders. "You must have learned how to pitch," was said to him as a compli ment. "Yes," he answered, "and I learned odder things, too; I am city broke now already." To prove, It George displayed a gorgeous wardrobe—and a date book. He got his “warnings." ami was told to go to Ids home in California and he sure to report in good siiape in tlie spring. Blaehoider is a six footer, weighs 180 pounds and is not yet of voting age. Thug he has all the advantage of youtn and physique and he is am bitious. "I want to siick in the big league,’’ he save, "those leedle towna don't have the life enough for me." TABOR COLLEGE TO PLAY KEARNEY Tabor, la., Jan. 13.—Coach Ben Newman ha* his Tabor college Cardi nals working overtime In anticlpa tlon of a hard game with the Kear ney Normal team of Kearney on the Tabor floor Thursday evening. The Tabor five Is composed of two veterans and three new men and have thus far shown up to good ad vantage. The return of Bobby Mawtior, vet eran forward and former captain, to the lineup has greatly pleased Coach Newman as well as basketball fans. Wawhor has been unable to report thus far due to a recent operation and although he ts not able to cut loose in his old flashy style of play as yet. It is hoped that he will he ahle to rlay In Thursday * game. Other starter* will probably be Caje ratn Carl, forward; Crnokham or Ken no* at center, and tha veteran Ala tropo and McFarland at guards.

Pancho knocked out Russo here In 1922 on a card staged by Jack Shel ton. Ioral promoter, in the 12th round. Pancho hit.». fought Russo four times, beating iiim twlse on decisions. In El Paso Russo knocked out Pancho in the 12th round after Pancho, who was recovering from influenza at the time, had floored Russo in the 10th. Pancho fought Schwartz a four round draw at !' rt Sam Houston In 1918 when Pan cho was a youngster weighing only 100 pqunds.
