FRAMTTONAND
TEAM TO FACE
REAL BIG TEST
Clyde Frampton and his Tuxedo
kitten ball team will play a double
header at Lneoln, Nebraska June 17
The Tuxedoes, as you all know,
are the fastest and the most popular
team in the Middle West. The team
first came into being about three or
four years ago as the Bacchamtes
which at that time was under the guid
ing hand of Martin Thomas.
After winning several champions
hips Since then, Jimmie Jewel has
taken up the busuness management
and the team still goes on to great
things- The manager, Clyde Framp
ton, formerly a hard ba 1 pitch r,
knows ms ball and through nis under
standing of the game has aided in
the success of the team
lilt’ Tuxedoes display special abil
ity in the snappy infield consisting of
Junior Gray on, ndolph Bolden, “Snoz”
Smith, and Clyde Frampton and the
fast outfield of Slick Lee, Cope Hunter
and Larry Stewart- Charlie Clump
handles the receiving end and Mar.y
1 n./iaas and H- Peak do the heaving.
They make up an unbeatable combin
ation
The double header at Lincoln will
give them a real test. As many as
possible snould go down and see our

CARTER LAKE I
WATERS RISE;
Rainfall Big Aid to Keep
Lake Safe For Another Year!
. _
Cai ter Lakj is saved for another
year, so believes A1 Swanson, Omaha
sportsman.
“ains. and replacements from the
Missouri river have raised the waters
almost two inches. The Lake is in
pretty good condition right now and
continued pumping should keep it so,"
said Swanson
The pump is being ap<rated 24
hours a day, waters being transported
to settling basins before being sent to
the Lake
Lots of fish have been found near
the point of entry. They are catfish
and bullheads

Human Skill Outranks
Machines
Modern industry with its almost
human and quantity production meth
ods, ne xls the true craftsman more
than ever before, says W. A. Fisher,
presicJmt of the Fisher Body Crafts
man’s Guild, Detroit, Michigan
“The opinion has been expressed
all to freely in recjimt years that the
machine age is eliminating the need
for the skilled worker,” Mr. Fisher 1
declares. “This is not true. Crafts- ,
manship is of more importance today
than it was when all things were pro
duced by hand. Without it, progress
is impossible.
“The man who can show manual
dexterity and the ability to apply
technical knowledge intelligently can
go far in our modrm industrial sys
tem, for he has a combination that is
urgently needed”.
The Guild was organized in 1930.
The aim of its founders was to foster
ideals of true craftsmanship among
boys of the North American Contin
ent and encourage them to build with
their pwn hands — to create things
for themselvjjB.
Already the Guild has earned inter
national recognition ai an outstand
ing educational foundtion. It has
some 750,000 memtyars and in three
years has provided funds for insur
ing a complete college education to
fifteen boys.
To win thfef awards offered by the
Guild, the basis of competition is the
building of a miniature model of the
Napoleonic coach, for which the
Guild furnishes the plans- The coach |
was choaan becaue it calls for skill in
metal, wood, paint and trim-craft as
well as artistic taste, mental ingenu
ity, manual proficiency and patient
perseverance.
Here is a real character building
endeavor which lays the foundation
for a life work- Educators and schools
are cooperating in the movement. In
terest was so gvjat this year that the
closing date of the 1934 competition
has been extended to midnight, July
21 to allow the youths vying for thjj
$51,000 in university scholarships, ad

a smasmng success isuuuay afternoon,
more than live thousand spectators
crowding aiound Ak-.Bar-Ben fiJd to
witness the first regulation mallet

Everyonj enjoyed the thrilling play,
even though the Omaha Polo club’s
four was forced to take a 7-to-0 lick

Des Moines Cavalry riders, who won i
tU tir thirteenth straight match.

Omaha, who were teammates at the !
University of Arizona a few years
ago, tid many a spectacular rush
down the field, with the other Smith

in some brilliant play. But all of '
the C|maha shots at the gols wen■

Superior ponies also gave th - sold

on practically every rush for the ball.
Lieutenant Harry J. Fleeger open

when he sent the ball rolling through
the pots from a difficult side angle
He also scored in the second period,
this time riding through with the ball
from straight in front
Captain Glenn S- Finley accomplish
ed the most spectacular scoring play
of the cont.st in the third ohukker,
when he cracked the ball while riding
at full speed some two hundred fet t
out from the goal. The ball carried
half the "distance in the air, them

This is a fine example of what

lentory, although securities and pro
perty \alues and almost everything
else had tended downward- He had
sustained a number of investment
losses, and there were few advances
—but the regular increase in value of
his insurance policies was sufficient
to overcome all losses, plus $2,000
This man’s, experience isn’t at all
remarkable. During depression a mul
titude of people have sewn all their
investments wiped out—with the sole
exdiption of insurance, which con
tinued to increase in worth- That’s
why a legion of Americans, now that
times are looking up, are giving life
insurance a larger place in the fam
ily budget

The fast coming Globe Trotters
before the largest crowd of the year,

ball going through T- Carey for a
home run
in the third inning the Merchants
came back strong to score 2 runs on
two successive singles and a double
Both teams thieatened to core from
then on until th^ seventh inning, when
with men on second and third and no
uts, the fine fielding of Brooks came
to light, snagged a grounder, touched
third and whipped the ball across the
diamond to first for a successful un
assisted double play.
The Globe Trotters, men came
back in their half of the inning with
two hits by Wicks and Hollowell and
a double steal-Peoples was purposely
passed to take Walker, who nicely lift
d one over third base- After a long
run by the left fielder, he stumbled
and dropped the ball, three runs

MID CITY’S
M1GETLEAGUE
THOMAS ORGANIZER;
GREAT OPPORTUNITY
_
|
The Mid City Community Center's
MidGet League, consisting of six
teams, made up of boys up to twelve
years of age of both races, .and is play
ed each Wednesday and Saturday at
i 2oth and Burdette Streets.
You don’t know how really cute
these boys can be until you see them
out on the diamond
“Of course.” said Marty Thomas,
“the scores run high but still the
gidimes are evenly played, that is, the
score might be 14 to 15 or something
liKe that ”
; This league has given the little lads
just wnat Omaha has needed for
years- It gives the younger ones an
opportunity to really get the funda
mentals oi baseball down; they create
an interest in the sport that will pro
bably develope enough to keep them
in the game until they becf>me real
stars of the next few years
To them, at present, they only see
the great amount of fun, there is
to the sport, but as they grow older
they will naturally attempt to per
fect this game as much as possible and
which will not be hard with an in
tructor such as Thomas in charge
Watch these lads in the future, you
will find them blasting in the spotlight
of baseball.
“But first of all,” said Thomas,
“these little boys are developing men
tally and morally.
“These games speed up their think
ing. They learn to consentrate rapid
ly and see what’s going on around
them- And morally they learn right
from wrong and just what laws are fo*
and they obey them.
Socializing Effect
It tends, also to bring about what
has been tried with the oider people
without any results, so to speak. And
that is the contact these colored and
white boys have without any sign bf
hatred or bitterness These boys
grow together in harmony and with
a thorough understanding of each
other
This has been tried over and over
again in other ways but has been a
total failure. The only real results
have been brought about through the
medium of athletics- It is here that
the fuure faeling beween races will
be built up
When we watch thesa boys playing
Ittle do we realize how much is being
accomplishd in that game- Why the
whole feeling of racial prejudice is
broken down, only the friendly feeling
of competition remains
The league is composed of the fol
lowing teams: the U- P-, the All
Stars, the Carey’s, the Demons, thj
Tgers and the Omaha Merchants Jrs
