Kd Konetchy's
Omaha Buffaloes
got more good
pitching yesterday
lfternoon and won
t double header
from the Bes
Moines Boosters
by tile scores of 8
to 1 and 5 to 1,
thereby making a
clean .sweep of the
five-game series
. with the athletes
J from across the
' creek.
The good hurl
•- i n g yesterday
came from George Boehler, late of the
Pirates, and Lantern Jaw Bill Bailey,
more late of the Houston club of
some place down in Texas. George
pitched the first game and allowed
the Boosters seven scattered hits,
while Bailey worked his southpaw
in the twilight affair and permitted
the Iowans only four hits.
Those Buffaloes repeated their
stunt of Saturday and made their hits
count. The Herd bounced a grand
total of 18 hits off four Des Moines
pitchers during the p. m., an, even
^ dozen off Hitt and Williams in the
opener and half a dozen off Davis in
the second. Williams relieved the
youngster. Hitt, in the second inning
of the first contest, while Datis gave
way to a pinch hitter that didn't hit
in the eighth inning of the nightcap.
Herd Collected 32 Huns.
During the Boosters' five games
with the Buffaloes, the Herd has col
lected a total of 32 runs to Des
Moines’ 12 in the four days, a run
producing feat the Bison should feel
sort of proud of. Not only did they
clout the Iowa liurlers hard, but the
Buffaloes succeeded In routing Des
Moints out of fourth place in the
standings.

Razzing Umps Was Once Dennison’s
Pet Pastime—Now He Is Their Chief
Y • \
Joltnuy '•
PoKMSSQtX )
y^y
HEN Johnny ' Dynamo" D<n
nison became chief of the mu
nicipal baseball umpires last
year, his old teammates chortled in
glee.
” 'Dynamo" was always 'razzing'
the umpires fur making mistakes
when he managed a team. Now we'll
get a chanes to 'raztr him." predicted
the players.
But 'Dynamo' tackled his umpire's
job with a vengeance and started1
teaching his bottle-dodgers a few of
the Inside points of baseball which
made him the most successful ama
teur baseball manager in Omaha's
sport history.
Soon he had his staff to a high
stage of efficiency and players on the
amateur teams, always more partic
ular than even the most seasoned
professional, found less and less to
'crab' the umps about.
And instead of 'razzing' Dennison,
players in the amateur nines began
to congratulate him on the work of
his assistants.
•Dynamo's’ secret of success lies in
a feu' cardinal principles
"There isn't such a thing as a
questionable decision in baseball. A
player is either out or safe. Be
where you can see thP plays an !
you'll call Vm right,” was the first
lesson be taught Ills umpires.
"Umpiring a ball game ts like any
other job. Work hard at it and
don't loaf on the job. Don't be afra-id
to move around on the field. ' was
another point he told his men.
And 'Dynamo' set an example by
being on the job every time his men
were in the field to umpire games.
He made the rounds of the amateur
contests with unfailing regularity,
saw the mistakes his men were mak
ing, corrected their faults and gave
them new courage and new confii
dence.
If an umpire didn't know a rule,
Dennison soon saw to it that his
education was improved.
And as a result, amateur ball
players today say the umpiring of
amateur games is the best in the
history of the Municipal Baseball as
sociation.
Since the heavy work of the sea
son is over, with the culmination of
many of the league races, Dennison
has organized a pickup team, the
Biemolders. to play twilight games.
Many fans predict that his activity
with this pickup team is a fore
runner of 'Dynamo's, return to ac
tive management of a team in one
of the leagues next year. But the
manager of two city championship
nines and five Plass A league pen
rant winners is saying nothing about
a reutrn to the game.
He's content to contir.ua h:s ef
forts to improve the uprising situa
tlon in Omaha.
