— ^ - - -
Prendergast and
Hall Engage in
Pitchers’ Duel
Omaha Bunches Hits on Bear
Hurler in First and Third;
Winning Second Came.
By RALPH WAGNER.
IG ED KONETCHY’S
Omaha Buffaloes
^B made two
straight over the
Denver Grizzlies
yesterday ^after
noon by chasing
l the Bears for a 3
-— to 1 victory at the
Fifteenth and Vin
ton street lot.
Incidentally, the
herd flopped into
third pTace in Pa
Tearney's West
ern league stand
ings. The Tulsa
Oilers handed Ok
lahoma City a defeat, sending the In
dians down Into fourth position.
Mike Prendergast, late of the Des
Mojpes Boosters, but now on the
Omaha payroll, hurled for the Buffa
loes. Opposing him on the mound was
the husky Hall. This pair staged a
pitching duel throughout the after
noon, each allowing seven hits. The
Buffalo hurler, however, kept the
Denver swats well scattered, but we
can't say that about Hall. The Buffs
bunched hits on Hall in the first
and third Innings to win the second
game from the visitors In as many
days.
Some Snappy Fielding.
One of, Denver s great faults was
failing to connect with the ball at the
opportune times. Ten Grizzlies were
left on the bases, but this was due
partly to the snappy fielding of the
Buffaloes. Johnny Kerr and Jimmy
Wilcox knocked down some mighty
hot grounders after the third inning
and it was support like this that en
abled Prendergast to sail along on
the road to victory.
Don Brown, a new member of the
Buffalo herd, made his initial appear
ance in an Omaha uniform yesterday
and spent the afternoon out in right
field. He managed to get one single
out of four times at bat and got cred
it for one putout, spearing a high fly
from Diamond's bludgeon in the
eighth.
The Buffaloes started after the
Bears In the veiry first inning. Brown
knocked n high fly out to right field
and than Kerr cracked out a double
to center. Wilcox's liner to MacPhee
went for an out at first, but McDon
ald singled to right, scoring Kerr.
Tex then pilfered second, but was
left stranded on the half-way sack
when Konetchy skied out to Higbee
In left.
Prendergast Tightens.
Things looked tad for the Buffaloes
In Denver’s half of the second in
_ ninj; Tfcljsr} .DlajpjaiU_starts -
frame with a double to center. Hlgbee
swung for the third strike and Pur
cell's single advanced Diamond to
third. Here Prendergast tightened
and retired the side in one two or
der, both Keeley and Donovan being
easy Infield outs. It looked like a
tough Inning for Mike, but the
Omaha pitcher pulled through In
good style.
Johnny Kerr ran half way out to
center field in an attempt to spear
Hall's drive in the third inning, but
the ball slipped out of John's mitts
and allowed Hall to land safely on
first. Reagan then fouled out to
Wilder and MacPhee worked Pren
dergast for a walk, boosting Hall to
second. O'Brien forced MacPhee at
second and sent Hall down to third
from where he scored on Diamond s
single, his second hit of the game.
That run of Hall's was the extent of
Denver's scoring.
Buffaloes Break Tie.
With the count tied up In a 1 to 1
knot, the Buffaloes gathered together
three hits, one a double, In the third
and put across two runs, only one of
which was needed to beat Denver.
Prendergast started the round, but
didn't get anywhere as the Bears
made short work of him, retiring the
Omaha pitcher by the ground-out
route. Brown's single started a rally.
Kerr, however, didn't help matters
any as he fouled out to Diamond,
hut Jimmy Wilcox clouted out a
double, scoring Brown with the run
that trimmed the Qriralles. McDon
ald's single to right registered Wil
cox with the third and final Omaha
run. Tex tried to stretch his single
into a double, but was nabbed at sec
ond when Purcell made a good throw
to the infield.
The Beara got a man around to
third base and one on second In the
seventh after two down. but
O’Brfen’a high fly to Cullop spoiled
Denver's chances of scoring.
The Bears and Buffaloes will play
a double header this afternoon, the
first game starting at * o'clock. Mon
day Omaha leaves for a trip around
the circuit, being away from the vil
lage for 18 day a. __

been a million mile Journey to him.
Ha had tied for the championship.
Hundreds of hands were shoved at
him, thousand* of cheer* given.
Cruikshank picked up the ball,
laughed, murmured:
"Much obliged.”
His wife was at his side. She had
stood brave and game as her husband,
confident in fact, as he made history.
They, the two Bobbies, will play It
o(T tomorrow afternoon. A tremen
dous battle it has every promise to be
between the stocky American boy,
shooting for glory, and the one wee
compact Scot. It’a a toeaup, as to
who will be champion.
The cards for the two heroes for
the last thirty-six boles follow:

Jones had three birdies on the day
Crulkshank had five. The firth, the
one that tied him for championship
honor, was the moat beautiful of ail.
Oh, yes, and Crulkshank wlU say so.
It Is an amazing thing that while
Bobby Jones of Atlanta has been
well called the greatest amateur golfer
In the world by any number of critics,
here and abroad, he has never wcjn a
national championship, slthough play
ing since he was 14.
No matter how astoundlngly he per
formed, someone, rising In Insplrsd
fashion, as did Crulkshank, has head
ed him in. In fact, it was considered
a break in the deal he has been get
ting from the gods that he was lot
out with a tie today,
I’lay Off Tie Today,
Tomorrow he will fight to make
the gods relinquish more of the luck
they withheld so lone from this mar
velous stylist.
Jim llarnrs. th# old veteran, has
called Bobby Jones the greatest golfer
In the world, pro or nmateur. To
morrow, Jim may have more reason
for his claim. Jones has been In five
open championships from a slight kid
up to the early, splendid manhood
that la his today.
People reading this will wonder
about this boy. Hobby Crulkshank.
Who Is he, they will say, and with
reason, for he has only won th# west
ern Now York and a 11,000 Invitation
event In 8t. Ixnils since coming over
here from Scotland three years ago.
llut make no mistake, he has a beau
tiful game. A game that drove many
of his countrymen Into ecstacles to
day. And It Is small wonder that he
Is brave, never giving up, fighting
any and all odds,

In sporting circles the possibili
ties of holding such a bout here are
said to be problematical. It being re

pressed his opposition to prixe ffgif**^^
and on Labor day last year refused to
permit the bout between Dempsey

Needs Four Months’ Training
It) Amoc-Imm! IT***.
Allenhmst, N. J.. July 14.—If Lula
Angel Firpo, South American con
queror of Jem WlUa/d. enters Into
the ring with Jack nempsey. world
heavyweight champion. In less than
four month*, he will be stepping Into
a "slaughter house." Jimmie DcFor
cst. trainer of the Argentine conten
der for the world's title, declared to
night.
"Firpo needs a lot of training be
fore he will be ready to meet Jack.”
DeForest asserted. "Dempsey Is en
tirely too fa»t for him. Firpo will
have to work much faster than he Is
sble to now before he goes Into a
ring with Jack.
"I judge he needs about four
months' intensive training before he
should even contemplate a Dempsey
fight. If he enters a ring with Demp
sey In less than that ttm« he will be
entering a slaughter house.”
DeForcet said Firpo would leave
within a day or two for a short tour
of the mlddleweat and Canada. The
Argentine, he declared, would make
the trip accompanied only by hta
sparring partners and an Interpreter.
DeForest said n» was unable to ac
company Firpo because he had to
itay In town as trainer to Charlie
Whit*, the Chicago lightweight who
a soon to meet Richie Mitchell. Mil
waukee lightweight.
Informed of an announcement
made In Grand Rapids. Mich., today
>y the Olympic Athletic club that
Firpo would meet either Jo* Rurke,
if Detroit or Homer Smith of K<ila

DeForest, who trained the South
American for hia bout with Willard
at Boyle's Thirty Acres Thursday
night and who is credited with hav
ing developed the Argentine's "sec
ond" hand, was at one time Demp
sey's trainer.
Asked whether his statement meant
that Firpo would not fight Dempsey
on labor day. as has been reported
in New York. DeFrrest said that was
a matter Firpo would have to decide
for himself.
"Firpo is his own manager." sa d
Df Forest. "Mv advice, however,
would be not to meet the champion-^
that soon " 'vi^
