Council Bluffs Maccabees Drop Con
test to Local Team by Score
cf 4 to 2 Yesterday.
From Monday's Dallv
Yesterday afternoon the Council J'a 'latte, rarents or ,ne bride. Mr.
Bluffs Maccabees came down to do Kt,llv lias resided in-this city for a
battle with the local team of the!nurab"r of years and is in the em
Interstate league and 'as the result , Plo-ve of the BurIingU.ii at the local
there was a real contest afforded thelshPs- ,r- and Mrf- K)y wS11 mak(i
fans and lanettes that filled the ! their future home in this city where
trrand fai.H nnd mar.v cntniar . the groom has a very large circle of
plays enlivened the game with the
fielding of Newman and Gansemer
standing out among the locals, as
they carried a large part of the as
sists in the outs against Council
Bluffs, with Newman also hittine
well.
The score was 4 to 2 at the close
and was a sweet revenge to the local
team for the defeat that Council
Bluffs administered earlier in the
season on the Broadway park to the
local ball tossers.
The locals started the old merry
go round in the first frame of the
game when they took very kindly to
the slants that Francis,' Bluffs hur
ler, was trying to put over and an
nexed two scores before the curtain
fell on the inning. Distell opened
with a fast one to short that was
juggled and the runner was safe
on first, O'Donnell sacrificed Distell
to second and then Shirley rapped
one to short that was also flopped
and two men were on the bags, Dis
tell going to third on the play. Joe
Krejci hit a slow grounder to first
on which he was called out but Dis
tell was allowed to score. Hans
Newman then rapped a grass cutter
down the third base line that was
going at top speed and Herb scored
at the plate.
The third inning was in which
both teams were able to do their
stuff in scoring, the Maccabees start
ing the show when Eyre touched up 1
Eaton for a two bagger that crashed
the left garden wall and he scored
when Francis also hit to deep left,
the muddy field making the work of
the outfielders hard and his hit scor
ed Eyre for the first run of the visi
tors. The Plattsmouth team hooked two
more in the last of the third that
spelled certain defeat for the Bluffs.
Distell opened with another hot
grounder to second base that was not
handled clean and he was safe on
the initial sack, sacrificed to second
by O'Donnell and when Herb was
retiring, Francis to Mortensen, Dis
tell took third base, scoring when
Joe Krejci hit safe to the center gar
den. Newman then rapped one to
left that the fielder made a great try
for but was unable to handle it and
on the hit oJe Krejci came on in
home with the fourth run of the
game.
In the fifth inning the visitors
threatened for a few moments when
Hanson was safe on a grounder to
short that took a bad hop out of
the way of Newman and the run
ner was safe. Schneider was out on
an outffeld fly. Eyrie hit a hot
grounder down to second and here
Newman made a most brilliant stop
as he was able to knock down the
ball and while not throwing Eyre
out at first he was able to toss the
ball to Gansemer on the base to
force Hanson. Miller flew out to
close the inning.
In the seventh inning Kennedy,
the veteran third baseman of the
visitors gave a real thrill to the fans
when he polled one over the left field
fence for a home run and the last
score of his team.
Christiansen, the hurling ace of
the Maccabees, was substituted for
Francis in the sixth inning as Fran
cis was weakening from the intense
heat and after the change in the
hurlers the local batsmen were un
able to solve the speedy ball that
Christiansen threw.
The tabulated score of the game
was as follows:

mile and the visit of the engineers,
including Frank T. Darrow, engi
neer for the Burlington, is to fully

the structure that will remove the

states as well a giving ab ridge on a
