Amateur Baseball Meeting With Success Among Omaha Business Concerns -* *---.........• Employers Quick to Realize Worth of Backing Team Industrial, Greater Omaha and Two Saturday Circuits Example of How Game Is Growing Here. By “R08EY.” MAHA business concerns are taking more interest each year in amateur base ball. Several years ago it was a man-sized task to re crult one league made up of teams composed entire ly of employes of the firms which they represented. Now, without any trou ble to speak of. three leag ues made up of teams the play ers of which are em ployed at the house they represent are members of the Municipal Ama teur Baseball association. The above goes to show the em ployers realize to a certain extent that the hired hands must have - some form of exercise as well as ^ recreation. Baseball Is one of the best forms of exercise and recrea tion known to man. Business men are quick to realize the worth of hacking amateur base ball teams, not so much for the good their employes receive from Ilia game, as for the amount of publicity they receive before and sfter each game. Amateur baseball games in Omaha ere witnessed by thousands of fans each Sunday. These same fans pa tronize Omaha industry. Therefore, the publicity received by a business firm in sponsoring an amateur base ball team goes a long way in boosting the husines of the firm represented on the diamond. The Industrial league last year was one of the most successful of all amateur leagues. Not a single protest was tiled by memlx-rs of this loop. And Ibis season, with file two Sat urday employe leagues, the Greater Omaha and the Industrial league, amateur fans will see mighty good baseball on Saturday afternoons. The new Commercial Twilight league, composed of six teams, will play twilight ball. This league has but one idea in mind and that is base ball for recreation’s sake.

Hv DAVIS ,1. WALSH. Isted today that i the Olympic jrames of 1928 would roma to' America and that I .ns A n g e le s would he the hon ored city. That much was ad mitted by A. A. XT. o f f i c 1 a l.s, who, however, nmplled their remarks on the subject by declaring that Amster dam, Holland, the original awardee, would be^given every chance to prove that they can take their Olympics or leave them alone. The Dutch, thus far, have been ' ery austere about the proposition, in fact, have been pleased to indicate that they regard the proposed Olym pic appropriation of 1,000.090 florins as very important money. Their idea of foot racing is that it is some thing you do with (he treadle of a sewing machine. A meeting of the American Olym pic committee lias been railed two weeks lienee to consider the sit uation in detail and perhaps offer 1 lie Dutch some free and highly in-) expensive advice. In some quarters it is felt that Amsterdam Is playing the game along tlie lines followed by the French last year when they threat ened to let tile games go by de fault in order to accelerate national patriotism and individual con tributions. Los Angeles indicated its readi ness to take over tile proposition while that crisis was on, bnt what its attitude toward the present sit uation may be, nobody seems to know. The southern California citadel lias hern awarded the games for 1932, and lias been laying its plans accordingly. It would take a handful of pennies, more or less, to swing tlip thing in 1928. Stockholm and I.,ondo'n also have been mentioned as possible sites for the classic, if Amsterdam stops in the back-stretch. Two factors, liowex'er, are operating against the chances of either city, to wit: That London had the games In 1908, and Stockholm in 1912. That neither want them now. The latter is regarded by some as an Important consideration. The inference there is obvious. If all other possible sites give the proposition a wide detour, i.os Angeles ptohably will feel itself in duty bound to step in four years earlier than expected. It will take it lot of doing. In the first plare (lie coast town lias declared itself in favor of a program that will make the holding of tlie Olympic games there a very expensive privilege. Realizing that Fnropenns are not only poor, lint geographii ally re mote, Isis Angeles has contracted to take care of their transportation, and at present plan to do so by means of an ocean liner that will tiring the invaders to the roast through tlie 1‘annuia canal. The erection of a stadium and quar ters for visiting athletes are also major items to he considered In a comprehensive budget. If It had to, could Los Angeles swing it as early ae 1928? My bet Is that Dis Angeles would give It the old college try. Newco TO \vfester Leagued K. AT(N<)I.I> MTONK. I’ltrlier. Omaha. Horn II ml Mtii lull*, X. Y., November II, IHH7.

Chicago Said to Be "Dark* Team of National Loop Maranvillo’s Injury Handi caps Killifcr's Squad: \lcx anilcr Will Carry Bulk of Pitching. AKLAND. Cal., April 4.—Where nre the Cubs going thin year? Can they make the grade? These are the questions baseball fans everywhere are asking. The Cubs seem to be the mystery rlub of the National league. Their * power is an tin know' quantity even to those who have followed them through their train ing. for that training has been too liberally punctuated with trials to permit of a definite opinion being forged. Thp Cubs rams out here a month ago with prospects highly polished. Hi nre then those prospects have been tarnished by Injuries to Maranville and Grigsby, an epidemic of sore arms among the pitchers and minor ailments of other players. At this wilting it is difficult to see how the Cubs are going to heat out the Giants, I'irates and Brooklyn. Everything hinges on the power the left side of Manager Kiilefer’s infield ran generate. If someone fills Maran * ille's slioes to a perfect fit and if Kriberg can attain something ap j preaching the form that was his he ! fore liis injury last season, then the i Cubs may get somewhere. But those two big IFS cannot be overlooked. Tn Adams and Grimm the right side of the inner works will be capa bly looked after, and Sparky is hit ting the ball harder this year. Grimm has lost none of his agility snd can be depended upon to hit .275 or better. The injury to Grigsby, while de cidedly unfortunate, Is not as serious a blew as the breaking of Maran ville s ankle. The cubs were better fortified with outfielders. Killefer has Heathcote. Statz. .Miller and Weis to use and that combination gives him power in the garden. Behind the bat Killefer is equally well fortified. Hartnett and O'Far rell will shoulder the bulk of the burden. Both are heavy men, ran hold up the pitchers and have good arms. Hartnett is hitting just *» hard as last year. O'Farrell seems to have Improved In his stirk work. He takes a cleaner rut at the hall and gets more power behind hi« swine. Jack Churry probably will lie the third string bark-top. It is unlikely that Rubber Jonnard will stick. The pitching affords another prnh. lem. Killefer win carry at least eight. Five of the eight are sure to be Alexander, Cooper, Blake, Kauf man and Keen. Jacob*. Bush aawd Jones probably will be the others. This layout would give Killefer six right handers and two southpaws— Cooper and Jones. But of this array at this time Alexander. Blake. Bush and Jones ars tn the best physical trim. The others have not been lax in their efforts to get Into shape but minor ills of one kind and another have retarded their progress. Where are the Cubs going this | year? It still Is a question. Omaha I.ions to Plav Bluffs in Volley Ball The Omaha Lions will meet the i Council Bluffs T. AT. C.
