Premier Contest
Five Thousand Spectators Are
Thrilled With Brand of
Ball Displayed in
First Game.
By RALPH WAGNER.
dE only good tea
• ture about Sun
day's doublehead
er between the
Buffaloes and
Tulsa Oilers was
the first game of
i no oarRain-aay
attraction which
the home boys
won by the score
of 5 to 2. The
final contest of
• the afternoon was
a farce. Tulsa
copped it, 19 to 8 or something like
that.
The first game didn't break npy
leaguerecords, but it was a good con
test to watch, while the nightcap
shattered the season's record for most
runs scored in one inning when the
Oilers went on a hatting spree in the
eighth and tallied an e%-en dozen
scores on 11 hits, one of which was a
homer by Bennett.
Bryan Speeoe hurled the first game
for Omaha and hurled right well.
Byron allowed the pesky Oilers six
hits, while Clark, the husky visitor,
was tumped for 10 bingles, one a
double by Bonowitz and two doubles
by Wilcox.
The Buffaloes trailed the Oilers, 2
to 1 until their half of the fourth in
ning when they scored two runs on a
single, Bonowitz's double, error and
two base on balls The Herd took
the lead in this round and were never
headed. In the fifth they scored an
other run and in the seventh tallied
the fifth.
Second Not So Good.
In the second game the 5,000 or so
spectators were treated to all kinds
of baseball, good, had and indifferent
on the part of the 26 players who
managed to get their names in the
iinup during the afternoon.
Boss Konetchy of the Herd used
Darrough, Bailey and Lee. Barney
Burch finally got Into the batting or
der as catcher and managed to slam
On the Tulsa side of the book, Mc
Laughlin. Crum and Clark worked on
the mound. McLaughlin was bad.
"' • while Crum was worse and Clark sue
* reeded where he failed in the first
game, to win a contest.
Tulsa started off on the right hoof
in the very first inning. Darrough
was liberal with his base on balls
and after Bennet singled, Stuart
sacrificed. Davis walked and Iaimb
forced the former at second, Bennet
, going to third. Lamb then pilifered
second and Lellvelt drew a base on
balls filling the sacks. Darough was
still suffering from the heat and
forced in Bennet when he walked
Bauman. With the bases full, Lee
sent the pellet out to right field where
Nick Cullop dropped the ball, allowing
Lamb, Lellvelt and Bauman to score.
Ennis grounded out and Tulsa's work
in the first inning was over.
The Buffaloes all hut tied the score
in the first when they knocked Mc
Laughlin groggy and scored three
runs on a hit batsman, two doubles,
sacrifice and Bonowitz’s single. In
the second the Herd tied the score
when they registered a tally.
Tulsa came hack in their half of
the fourth and took the lead when
Bennet knocked a homer over the
right field fence scoring Lee ahead of
him. Another Oiler scored in the
fifth snd Omaha went to hat in their
section of this frame with the visi
tors leading. 7 to 4.
Kerr Starts Tilings.
Kerr singled trt start the inning and
then Wilcox got a one-bagger. Mc
Donald got bit and filled the bags.
Then McLaughlin played aviator and
went up among the clouds. He walked
the next two Buffaloes, forcing In two
runs. He was yanked but of the
lineup and Crum took his place, but
this Oiler wasn’t any better as he
walked O'Connor forcing In the ty
ng run. Bailey whiffed, but Bolzen
la hi managed to get free transport
ation to first, thereby forcing In
Imaha’s eighth and final tally Harry
Manush filed out to left field and the
‘hrow to the plate caught Joe Bono
wltz with the third out.
The Buffaloes held the lead until
he fatal eighth when the Oilers went
on their hitting spree, cracking out
*1 hits for twelve runs. Bailey was
jerked early in the inning and Lee
nserted in the lineup, blit the latter
was no puzzle for the visitors as they
■lammed his deliveries to all corners
of the lot and half way into Iowa for
'0 runs.

Williams Says Swing of Ax
Chopping Trees Helped in Hitting
HAHI) labor—labor that consists of swinging an ax around the shoulders
and denting trees In the forests of Wisconsin is the secret of home run
hitting. At least that is what Frederick C. Williams, alias "Cy," out
fielder of the Philadelphia Nationals, prescribes. When he changed his winter
life from a bank clerk to a tree chopper he became another bashall hero—
a home run king and rival for Babe Huth'a record of 59 made in 1921.
All sorts of pet schemes and Ideas
have been Introduced to create hitters.
The stance is altered, new bats are
designed, choke hitters shift to the
end of the bat and there are numer
ous other creations. "Cy" Williams
discounts all of this alleged Inside
stuff by remarking:
“Don't loaf during the winter. Set
tle down to hard laljor."
“Cy” did It himself. Serving eight
years in the National league he was
regarded as a mediocre batter—never
in the .300 class, and occasionally he
would poke one for the circuit. But
they all do that—occasionally.
At the end of the 1919 season Wil
liams moved from Winona, Ind.. to
Three Lakes, WIs. Going In to win
ter retirement he would greet the
home folks Tor a week, remove ine
silk shirt, linen collar and dude clothes
and "go to work."
The ax whs In the shed. Then
throughout the off season he had
lost himself from the bright lights
completely. Day after day “Cy” was
with the gang—the gang of tree chop
pers. Blisters grew on the palms and
perspiration rolled down the cheeks—
in the winter. Rut muscles In the
wrists, arms, shoulders and hack be ■
came veins of iron. And what hap
pened?
The first year after swinging the
ax he made more home runs than any
season In his career. Three years
later he tied the mark of three home
runs in one game and put Babe Ruth j
on his trail watching the-dally reports j
of his remarkable home run hitting.
