TITE OMAHA DAILY BEE: SUNDAY, JANUARY 3, 1004. 13 PEACE AMONG THE BOWLERS York Decide! to EnUr Teams at Clerelsid Tonnmntut CAST AND WEST BURY THE HATCHET I heard about "whfr the something else) flows." Burmeslter (or gCadl ( Petty DlfcrtiiFH Com aad the foairrfM V 11 Once Mora Represent the sport J Nationally. 1 i ffew York' bowlers have decMed to enter the national championship tournament ' to tx held at Cleveland In. February. This Is regarded aa the first step toward a re conciliation between the eastern and west ern men, and In all probability the Cleve land carnival will be something of a love leant. Thla la a matter of considerable Im portance to the bowling Interests of the United States. The American Bowling Congress, which is the national organiza tion, haa plenty of trouble on lt hands Ince the 'split' occured two years ago. Since that time there has been nothing but discord and both sides will welcome heartily anything which looks like a step toward reconciliation. The main trouble aeemed to be the fact that after having Quarreled like ,a lot of school boys, each Ida to the controversy chose to stand on Its dignity .rather than make any admis sions of curpablllty. In view of these con dition the angel of peace took a long Journey Into parts unknown, but now that he la known to be hovering near. It Is re garded aa a good time to shake hands and klsa each other and agree nevermore to quarrel. I The loaded ball and other seemingly In finitesimal things have been matters of contention, but the real seat of the trouble Jar In the fact that each, side wanted to boss. It waa asserted by the westerners two years ago that the eastern contingent wanted to run the 'whole show and that they seemed inclined to pass up the west ern element altogether. The west seemed t be at a disadvantage ' In the beginning but by segregating- its forces, It was noon found that it waa the big cat In the fight and the eastern element then chose to ever all connections with the congress and since that time the angel of peace has teea conspicuous only by his absence. The Cleveland people are making big orta toward making their tournament a JMeas. Ana in view 01 mis iaci iney havaout forth every effort to effect Compromise between the warring factions and the announcement Is now that the two elements are willing to come together. la must have had a viae head who Inter vened la this matter. Looking back upon paat conditions now, la view of what haa Just happened. It can be seen that ail that was wanted was some body to take the Initiative and bring the 'warring elements together. Each side to the controversy waa standing on its dig titty and when someont stepped in as a' tnediator. It was then seen that there was tiothing else much In the controversy but dignity and that there really had been little ground In the beginning for anything resembling a scrap. This lends color and strength to the belief that when the east ern and western bowlers have finished their tournament at Cleveland, they will go out, arm La arm, and have something. And then when they get up to a certain city In the north which waa made famous Toy a certain brand of boer, they will have something else In 1906, ae the Mllwaukeeltos axe confidently looking forward to the na tional championship tournament of 1906 as their very own. Members of the American Bowling congress directory have placed themselves on record as. favoring Mil waukee, and as far aa human forethought can tell. It seems more than a probability that the city of the north and of gentle breezes will "secure the plum. And then It will be up to the visiting bowlers to put on their "hospitality" clothes for the Mil waukee! tea pride themselves on their ability to call forth the beat there Is In a man's social nature. With this thought In mind. It Is certain that many bowlers throughout the country will visit Milwaukee to verify their oft-repeetad wishes and to verify for a certainty the stories they have often All of which will be a matter of some Interest to local bowlers, especially in view of the fact that none of them contemplate visiting the Cleveland tournament. They claim it Is too far away for them to make the trip to advantage. Many of them are locking forward to the trip to Milwaukee, however, with much Interest. They have expressed the desire to make this trip and unless something unforeseen should hap pen, It seems certain that a goodly delega tion from this city will be among the list of delegates to the 1906 tourney at Milwaukee.

To relieve the situation the hitch school authorities deemed some kind of action a steoessltjr and seems to have found It In the recent charges to the effect that the university athletes are not much when It comes to scholarship, that many of them should still be In the high schools, and that If they were In the hlah schools even then they would not be able to make their studies. These charges have been sufficiently Inter esting-, even more than that have they been startling, to call forth a storm of protest which promises to bear fruit and If it will serve the purpose of clearing the atmos phere somewhat the patrons of the schools and universities will perhaps witness solution of some things which have long puxzled them. In the first place It Is a well known tact that foot ball has a good many things to answer for. First, there Is the charge of brutality and other things of a similar nature. But the university authorities claim that it Is In their province not so much to deal with this phase of the ques tion as with that of eligibility for scholar ship and university standing. And the high schools have not been slow to take advantage of the opening thus afforded. It seems to have been an Incident of sug gestion, but the present agitation of the question would seem to promise history sufficiently Interesting to cause the univer sity athletes and the university authorities to make some Interesting discoveries.

A game of basket ball between the Omaha Young Men's Christian association and the Sioux City Giants has been scheduled for January 8. The game will be played at Omaha, and was arranged on the condition that a return game be played in Sioux City. These teams have met before, and each time there has been a battle royal, and the Sioux City players, on their own confee slon, are inspired with great respect for the mighty renown of the local team. In the past the honors have fallen to the Omaha players somewhat oXtener than to Its op ponents, though the locals have come far as scholars. And that Is tho only phase of the question which is worthy of considera tion in view of the premises which have been enunciated by the high school au thorities. It Is claimed that when an ath lete enters a university, his whole soul Is oftoner centered on his prowess as an ath lete than upon his studies, and that this love of two mistresses cannot work to the good of the athlete, and neither can it be greatly beneficial or helpful to the univer sity. The high schools, in the opinion of the universities, have overreached themselves. The universities resent the charge that they have entered the high schools like a thief In the night and taken awav the MISS ELLA HARRIS A Nurse Girl, Cured bv Uriesol.

I am 33 years old and have'been a nurse girl since I was 13 years old.

If this charge against the universities could be substantiated, then the high schools claim they woukl be open for suspicion. And then the high schools claim in the next breath that the charges which they have placed at the door of the university can be proven In hundreds of instances. That would seem to be a pretty broad statement to one who has a fair knowledge of the English language. And It would further seem to be a charge serious enough to warrant thorough and reliable Informa tion. The general publlo has a right to a voice In a matter like this, as It strike riht home. Let the agitation continue until it can be discovered which side Is right and which side Is merely giving vent to its spleen. been nearly an even thing, so that with these thoughts In mind the locals will pre pare for Its next battle with the Sioux ag gregation with much of uncertainty as to the outcome. That the Omaha Toung Men's Christian association basket ball team is composed of first-class timber is evidenced by ther fact that it defeated the fast Haskell In dlan bunch last year, and has done the same thing to other basket ball teams. Much consistent practice work haa been done at the Toung Men's Christian asso elation during the past month In the ef fort to strengthen the team and get it In condition for some warm games this winter. And while the practice has been con slstent and somewhat satisfactory, yet the adequate number of games to make up the season's schedule are not forthcoming. This is due to a general apathy on the part of the outside teams, and to the fact that none of them are disposed to do what is termed the right thing. By this it Is meant that they are willing to come to this city to play on a guarantee which the local management knows It can safely assure the visitors, but when It comes to talking about The Omaha country club has named J, a return game the outside aggregations are I S.

No selection of a professional Instructor has been made since the departure of Bartsch. The club committee Is on record among his friends as saying that in his opinion Travis has overstepped the bounds of the amateur. Poor old Travis! He certainly has had his hands full ever since he took up a golf club a few years ago and then broke Into fast company. When he reached the top notch then his vllllHcation commenced and as he Is still able to do what my other could not do and retain his high position he Is still the target for the men who claim that he Is a professional In spirit if not In reality. Travis has stood it thus long, and It would seem that with his temperament and make-up he wcuid be able to stand It for some time to come. There Isn't a golfer throughout the length and breadth of the United States with whom the writer has talked but vhat has it "In" for Travis. No reason Is assigned by many of these for their antipathy, except that they in some unknown way have gotten next to some other golfer who has talked to some other golfer who has talked to some other golfer, and thus It has gone the rounds, until It would seem that Travis would be crying out for some kind of relief. But he still goes around, the same old Travis. And he Is still going around a with athletics knows that the foot ball and .a"mber PP"" the position, winner, too. and that Is where the rub other classes of sport book their games in advance, some of them being a year In ad vance. A difference of a month or so can not surely make much difference to the people who are running the basket ball teams. Tho Toung Men's Christian asso ciation has been asking for games all around the country and there must be some good reason for Its Inability to get a game. Whether this springs fpom a fear of the local aggregation Is, of course, a mat ter of conjecture, but it would be fair to assume that no such thing as fear enters but there seems to be no desire to make the selection at this time. February 11 Is the date agreed upon for the annual meeting of the United States Golf association In New Tork. There will be an election of officers, which Is saying a good deal, in view of the fact that there is a great contest on. The nominating committee Richard H. Williams of Mor ris county, W. K.

The question as to wnetner a man should be selfish enough to go on .winning tournaments and trophies when there are lots of others who would like to have a chance Is not one which enters Into the matter with him so long as this tirade of abuse lasts and there are many who don't like Travis, doubtless, yet who still have some admiration for the man who .can stand up under this severe treatment In the manner that Travis has. AFTER NEBRASKA management has the matter of dollars and cents to look after also, and since It is will ing to meet its responsibilities In this mat' ter It would seem to be but fair that the other aggregations throughout the west should be willing to do the same. On the other hand the Toung Men's Christian as sociation athletes are not worrying over this matter to any great extent There are other things which Its athletes can do be sides play basket ball and In the meantime they are far from being an idle lot. There Is skating, the gymnastic and Indoor exer cises, and a host of other things with which the athletes can busy themselves, On New Tear's day the customary large and appreciative audience greeted the Toung Men's Christian association boys and Its friends and made them feel that, not only was the institution of which they are members appreciated, but that they were personally appreciated. They were given the glad hand of comradeship by nearly 3,000 visitors. During the day the reading rooms and every other quarter of the building was crowded by a host of friends who had come up to let the members of the association know that they esteemed It a power for good and that they were willing to continue to contribute to Its support and to lend It their presence In the furtherance of Its designs for the betterment of the city. The final event of the day was an athletic exhibition, which was enjoyed by a large number of friends and visitors. -Si!)

And this time It Is a war of words between the universities and the high schools, ths claim having been made by those who are re sponsible for the high schools that many of the leading athletes who are in the uni versities could not make the high school requirements and that they could not pass the required grade. This seems to be a terrible and un-thought-of eharge. In the eyes of the big universities, and they have answered caustically and seemingly with little regard to the proprieties. The charge is certainly broad enough and also suffl clently startling. If substantiated, to work a radical change, not only In the doings at the universities, but In publlo sentiment as well. The steps leading up to the charge have been numerous, but have taken a certain well denned course. The charge was made some time since that the universities had their agents In various parts of the west visiting the leading high school athletes with the end In view of enlisting these sthletes in the university in whom they were Interested. It was also shown that In many. Instances these agents or drum- showing more enthusiasm over the prob able slate of officials than ever before In the history or the association. AH realise that the race for the honor of heading the national organisation Is drawing into maelstrom of politics millionaires and men of large means and that it has become a battle of the giants. Nothing Is known as to Mr. Llttlejohn's choice for the places, which, by common consent, are left to the western member of the nominating committee to nil. The announcement comes from New Tork. however, that unbounded confidence Is had in Mr. Llttlejohn to do the tight thing. The eastern members of the nominating committee have a high re gard for the Glen View man's Judgment and admit that had the man suggested for the executive board of the association himself found It convenient to accept the place the western member might have In troduced a compromise leader for presi dent whose power in golf would have re ceived the praise of both western and east ern men prominent in the affairs of the United States Golf association. In guarded way It Is said that the changes In the personnel of the United States Golf association list of officers for the year 1904 will be surprises even to the close personal friends of the members of the nominating committee.

"Pop" Tweedle, the veteran Chicago golfer, had a match arranged for Christmas with the professional Christian, who was unavoidably absent, whereat Tweedle was somewhat cast down. He said a Brood many things, and among them waa the following: "The dyed-ln-the-wool golf en thusiast doesn't care about a little snow or sero weather." When a golfer gets In that condition of servitude he must love the game dearly. And yet that Is the kind which make the golfers. Since the publication of the United States Golf association's year book the following clubs have been admitted to membership, the Omaha Field club and the Cedar Rapids (Iowa) Golf club. waiter J. Travis, amateur champion. Is much exercised over the constant nagging of certain magazine and newspaper writers. who doubt bis amateur standing. He affects composure, however, when discussing the cnarges that he laid out a course for a consideration, and that he asked for per mission to have a certain golf club manu factory put his "Travis club" on the mar ket. "I'll meet any charges that may be officially brought to the national body," said Travis recently.

Casper Whitney, the self-constituted Mentor of college athletics, having finally succeeded in renovating everything east of the Missouri river, and some of the things west, now turns his attention to Nebraska's foot ball affairs. In the Jan uary number of Outing, after arranging the several teams of the United States according to their merit as he sees it, Mr. Whitney proceeds to explain why he has omitted Nebraska from his authoritative and final record, which. In his estimation at least, settles the value of a foot ball team and its fame or obloquy beyond dis pute. Nebraska is assigned to obloquy, In the following language: In that group of western oollea-es near tne Missouri, progri tniet Nebraska has shown most ess In root ball skill, but least in tla decenoy.

ISth and Capitol Ave. Chicago, It played two ex-members of pro fessional base bill teams, but the colleges of that section, having no complaisant con ference committee, and real rea-ard for the wholesomeneas of their sport, severed relations with unclean Nebraska. It is not so long ago that all in this section were tarred with the same brush, but there has been earnest work by friends of honest sport at Kansas, Iowa, Missouri and as a result the atmosphere has cleared largely. Fortunately for Nebraska, It Is not fatal to fall under the ban of Mr. Whitney's dis approval. - It hasn't been such a very long time since that eminent authority, even If self -constituted, could see no foot ball I team west of Philadelphia, and when It did come to pass that he admitted that the ! game was practiced with some skill and not a little success on this side of the Alleghanles, he solved the problem by put ting all western teams on his Index ex purgatorlus. One by one they have been pronounced unclean, and yet each has sur vived the anathema of this paragon of personal purity aa applied to amateur sports. In this reflection Nebraska may rest secure, content with the knowledge that she has won a position In a glorious company, for with her sit Chicago, Michi gan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Northwestern and other schools with whom It Is no dis grace to be associated. Still, one wonders where Mr. Whitney gets his information, and cannot help con cluding that If the table he has prepared Is based on no more accurate Information than he seems to possess concerning the Corn Huskers, that It is worthless for any other purpose than to show the bent his absurd prejudice is taking this year. Kan sas alone made a complaint against Ne braska, and that complaint was withdrawn on the presentation of an explanation that was accepted by Kansas as being satis factory. Both Kansas and Iowa have a cuiiuw.-i wim neonuuu tor at least one more year, and none of the other schools with which Nebraska has maintained re lations recently have Indicated any inten tion of changing their arrangement.
