Indians Trim
r Buffaloes in
Two Contests
Oklahoma City Wins First,
: 5 to 2 and Second, 2 to 0;
Locals Drop to the
Third Place.
By RALPH WAGNER.
ARNEY BURCH cam-
4 bled with the base ball
fates yesterday and
came out loser in a
double-header. With a
tired pitching staff on
his hands, he entered
the first game with
Oklahoma City with
"Big Ben" Smith on
the mound. The Buffaloes lost, 5
W 2. In the second affair, Burch
hurled, and again the herd lost, but
this time it was a shutout affair,
credited to Salisbury of the, Indians.
The score was 2 to 0.
' Failure to hit at opportune times
in both games cost the Buffaloes a
double-header and second place in
the Western league, standings.
Within the last three days the
Buffaloes and Indians have played
47, innings of base ball, but not a
single 'victory . is credited to the
Omaha entry, which' is out of the
'ordinary for the locals. During the
five-game series, Oklahoma City has
scored 16 runs, while the best the
' Buffaloes could do was to tally 10
runs. The first contest of the series
traveled 11 innings to a 5 to 5 tie.
V,;; Indians Get 10 Hits.
,T Within the last five days two of
the league's leading teams have
played in Omaha, namely Wichita
and Oklahoma City. While the
Witches lead the circuit and dis
played good ball while in Omaha,
the playing of the Indians during
, the series which just closed was su
perior to that of Wichita in all de
partments of the game. The Okla-
. noma City club played a brand of
base ball that was a pleasure to
watch. -
In the first game of yesterday's
double-header "Big Ben" Smith al
lowed the Indians 10 hits, of which
one was a home run by Harper, his
third of the series; a triple by Run
ser and doubles by Mitchell and
Harper, the lafter knocking out two
two-baggers besides his circuit
clout, out of four times up.
.Harper's homer accounted for the
Indians' first score in the second,
and Mitchell's double, followed by
Wright's single in the third round,
resulted in the visitors' second tally.
An error, base on balls, double, sac
rifice and single resulted in three
more tallies for the southerners in
the sixth. -
,"Southpaw" Mitchell was trotted
Out by the Breen-O'Leary combi
nation in the first contest. This
lanky Indian hurled dandy ball
throughout, Allowing the Buffaloes
10 hits, among them being four
doubles, two by; "Billy" Lee. His
support was good, espcciall'y when
Omaha filled the bases in the fifth,
failing ot score. '
'.,. Buffaloes Score in Sixth.
C.Omaha chalked up a tally in the
sixth when Masey singled to center,
and scored on Sprangcr's double
down the third base line. The final
Buffalo crossed the. plate in the
eighth when Lee got his second
double, going to third on Lelivelt's
single and scoring on Massey's sac
rifice. , Burch was- nicked for nine hits in
the second contest, two of these
blows coming in the third and fourth
When the Indians scored their pair of
tallies. Runser tripled in the third,
scoring on Salisbury's sacrifice, while
Wright doubled in the fourth, went
to third on a sacrifice and scored on
Harper's big brohter act. I
jTo Pitcher Salisbury goes the J
credit of hurling a no-run game
against the Buffalos. It was the
fifth time this season that the Buf
falos have been white-washed on
their own diamond. Wichita and
Tulsa each white-washed the herd
- twice early in the season.
w Omaha Fails to Score.
Salisbury was, in tight places sev
eral times, but the good fielding of
his teammates and the failure of
Buffalos to hit in the pinches pulled
the Indian twirled out of the rut.
Salisbury allowed only one base ou
balls and seven scattered hits, among
Which was Lelivelt's two doubles.
Lelivelt's first two-bagger came in
the second with no outs. Massey
got a life on Salisbury's error and
Lelivclt went to third. The next
three Buffalos were easy outs and
the side was retired with a man on
ihird and one on first.
.Omaha had men on bases in every
inning with the exception of the thiid
i and seventh.
Judges Favor Return
-pi Of Old Whipping Post
Denver, Aug. 28. Back to the
whipping post? '." . ...
7 Judge Lewjs L. Faivcett, of the su
preme court of Brooklyn, N. Y., re
cenjily recommended the whipping
post as proper punishment for certain
types of criminals. " " .
w Although .the primary object of
penal law is the protection of society
and not the punishment of the crim
inal, the Brooklyn judge's theory
finds lodgment in the com-ictions of
two well-known Colorado judges.
'tMagistrate William A. Rice, vet
eran local police judge, feels that the
whipping post might be used effect
ively for offenders of the wife-beating
and non-family-supporting type,
.but says such . a - law should be
hedged about by a guarantee that the
accused receive a fair and impartial
trial He says women are prone to
make charge? when they themselves
are often participants of criminal con
ditions in the home. , t
Willard to Referee
Wichita, Kan., Aug. 27. Jess Wil
lard, former heavyweight champion,
has agreed to referee the bout be
tween Mike Gibbons and Mike
.O'Dowd here October 18.

Wife Says Husband
Enticed From Family '
By His Step-Mother
Lexington, Neb., Aug. 28. (Spe
cial.) Charges that her' husband
was enticed'from his family by Mrs.
Clyde Hiles, his step-mother, and of
non-support were made by the wife
in" an answer to Harry Hiles' suit for
divorce. The wife asserts that the
step-mother, who is about the same
age as Hiles, made frequent trips
with the husband, leaving Mrs. Hiles
and her. small children without nec
essary food arid clothing.
Hiles, who inherited from his
father the use of . several thousand
acres ; of -land, Well stocked and
equipped, made a contract with his
wife last year to give her 5,000 a
year. He authorized C. W. Wagner
of Gothenburg to lease certain lands,
collect the rentals and pay Ins who
the amounts due her. In filing suit
for divorce, it is anticipated that
Hiles wants to annul this contract..
It is said the husband has
squandered the fortune-left him and
that his life interest in his father's
estate is being sold to satisfy judg
ments. Among Hiles' purchases were

Out on VacatiorvTrip
Elkins, W. Va., Aug. 20. Here's
a new Henry Ford story. It is told
by Judge William E. Baker, of fed

one, for it happened when Mr. Ford,
H. S. Firestone and Thomas A. Edi
son were in Elkins on their mountain
camping expedition.
Two negroes were playing dice
that is, "shooting craps" in the
street and one had taken about all the
money the other had. The winnir
played slowly and took plenty of
time with the dice before he would
"roll" them. The loser was impa

Cards of exit, frequently are of greater
Importance than cards of re-entry. Fur
thermore, while all players who have had
considerable experience know ,a great
deal about cards of re-entry. It is rare to
find one who knows, any ' more about
cards of exit than he does of Choctaw. A

West' secured seven tricks.
All the play of the desl was made by
north at trick eight, but that was enough
to make a vfali" average 'for several desls.
Had north discarded the deuce of spades
irstead of- the aoe, the dealer would In
evitably have secured the game. The
latter made a desperate play tor game,
as there was hope that north had the
king and queen of spades remaining. Of
course, west could have made his ace of
heart, but an extra trick would have
done him no good, and he fought for
game untlt the last gasp. .
The development In the heart suit st
trick one showed north clearly that he
must never lead hearts again, and there
fore exit cards were more valuable than
cards of re-entry. Had It been necessary,
north would have discarded both the ace
and king of spsdes .rather thsn lose the
duce of that suit. Theso situations are
of freqikent occurrence, but are so fsr
removed from the mental processes of ths
average brain that they escape notice al
together. " '

Candidates for
Illinois Eleven
Prospects Good for School
Being Contender for 1921
Championship of West
ern Conference. , '
Vrbana. 111., Aug. 28. -The Uni
versity of Illinois gives promise cf
developing a loot ball eleven that
will wage a desperate fight for the
1921 championship of the Western
f'fMitVrpnrr iudcinc from the ma
terial Coach Zuppke has available for
the start of the practice season
September 15.
Despite the injury to veterans,
Zuppke has a wealth of promising
material, especially line candidates,
from the yearling squad. Carney,
all-American - end, and Hcllstrom,
who played the other end position
last season, will be lost to the team,
Carney for at least a patt of the
season.
Carney may be in r.hipe to play
by the middle of October. The re
cent operation on his knee, wrenchtd
in the championship Ohio. State bat
tle last year, was successful, and
doctors say that he will be ready to
play in the Michigan game on Oc
tober 29. But in the iiiianwlule,
Zuppke must iind a capable pair of
ends. Hcllstrom, with a broken leg,,
ij out for the season.
Battering Offense.
Dick Reich le may be Zuppke'
choice. He played with the fast
Great Lakes navy team during the
war and has had a year's experi
ence here. Dave Wilson," former
George Washington university arh
Icte, and Mathias are the other lead
ing candidates. Smiih is a possi
bility if his ankle heals.
On the return of Carney depen ;s,
in. a l.ircrp measure, the style of at
tack which Zuppke v.iil use. ltli
the Walquist-Carney. forward pass
combination disrupted, the lllini
must return to the old battermg 01
lense, varied with Zuppkc's rapid-
shifting formations., CcnsideraDie
will depend on the skill and flcet
ness of the backs,, and of these,
Illinois will nave an exceptional
galaxy.
Practice Starts September 15.
Headed bv Reitsch, who substi
tuted for Depler at center in the

Former Giant
Still Goes Good
Charles Herzog Plays Snappy
Ball With American
Association.
New York, Aug. 28. Among thos
present when the Yankees mingler,
with the Louisville Colonels in an
exhibition game on the latter's field
recently was Charles Lincoln Her
sog, former Giant star and one-time
manager of the Cincinnati Reds.
Charley wore the livery of the
Colonels and olaved second base for
-them, and seemed to have most of
the old-time speed intact. He couldn t
make a hit in four times at bat
against Jack Quinn and Ales Fer
guson, but his. fielding was superb.
Up to a couple of weeks ago Hcr
sog was with the Columbus club ot
the American . Association, a tail
end crew with little or no chance
to emerge from the cellar this year.
Despite his drab surroundir.gs be
batted in the neighborhood of .305.
played a brilliant game afield and
managed to keep his spirits up and
his well-known pep on tap. In other
words, he engineered a really re
markable comeback and was the
only player sought by the Louisville
management when Second Br.seman
Bruno Betzel of the league-leading
Colonels broke his leg while slid
ing into a base.
Columbus was willing to sell him,
but Herzie's contract provided that
he couldn't be sold or traded without
his consent, and he held up the deal
until he had received a part of the
purchase money and until the
colonelTNiad agreed to assume his
Columbus contract, with all its va
rious clauses. This is one of the
most remarkable base ball docu
ments ever drawn and subscribed to.
It guarantees Herzog privileges and
rights which probably are accorded
to no other base ball player in the
country. Louisville had to have
him, so the Colonels met his terms,
and now the cantaloupe king is a
member of a league leading club
with an excellent chance to play m
the little world series between the
respective winners of the American
Association and the International
ttague pennants.
Cat IVot Deadly Weapon

Chicago, Aug. 28. A cat is not at

James S. Jankowski, who styles him
