SPORTING GOSSIP OF THE WEEK
Couldn't quite do it.
It locked for a moment like Omah was
coming home In second place, but the bat
ting streak didn't hoi rut. Still, we got
four game out of the nine played In Colo
f rsdo, and that lsasome comfort. Now that
' the team practically finishes at home, and
with 1U strength unimpaired. It la quite
within the boui.ds of reason that It will
gain first place. Of the thirty games sched
uled for the remainder of the season,
twenty will be played on the home grounds
and ten abroad. Two of the. games away
are with Sioux City, three are with tes
Moines and five with St. Joseph. The Labor
day games that were transferred to Sioux
City In exchange for the Decoration day
games have been switched back to umana,
and one other game scheduled for Bloux
City, together with a postponed game, will
; be played here. This gives Omaha seven
straight games with the Sioux on the home
grounds, all of which should be won by the
home team. In fact, of the nine games to
be played with the Sioux eight should be
won by Omaha. Ics Moines we have been
here and there all season, and It only re
mains for us to even up matters with St.
Joseph. If Omaha can hit the streak that
opened during the last stay at home, the
pennant Is ours, despite the lead the Colo
rado teams still maintain.
The performance of the Omaha team
during the last eight games played In
Colorado was quite satisfactory, so far as
fielding Is concerned, but Vhe batting
suffered something of a slump. The Inst
game In Denver caught the boys for more
blunders than all the others played on the
trip put together, but this was Just one
of the "off days" that every tonm hns.
Frlor to that the magnificent work done
by all hands will furnish one of the bright
est' pages In Omaha base ball history, and
we'll forget the mistakes made In that
t mess. The only other feature of the week
Is that Bobby Carter made another error,
Ms first since June 4. Any time you tliltik
that Carter boy Isn't an outfielder, you
arc entitled to one more think. The sta

was the most successful of the season
First and foremost, the attendance at both
Colorado Springs and Denver was of the
paying order. The crowds were so good
that I'apa Bin came away with a little
money to the good, Instead of having to
dra on his surplus to pay expenses, as he
has had to do heretofore this season. This
la the most cheerlngXeature of the visit
but the other fact that Omaha won four
games out of nine played, and was beaten
out of the fifth by rain at the Springs on
Sunday, Is another most encouraging sign.
It Is the best work a valley team has dayie
In the mountains this season and puts
Omaha In a splendid position to stand off
the season's series with Colorado Springs
and Denver. At present the record shows
that Colorado Springs has won fourteen
and lost eleven In the series with Omaha,
while Denver has won twelve and lost
thirteen. . St. Joseph Is the only other
team that has kept anywhere near even
with Omaha, and of the twenty games so
far played between these two teams the
matter la a stand-off, ten apiece. With
Des Moines Omaha has won fifteen and lost
nine and with Bloux City the account
stands fourteen to seven in favor of
Omha.
In order to set at rest the dispute that
has arisen over the standing of the teams
during the last week, The Bee presents
here the detailed recfjrd of the games for
the season. Including everything played UO
to Frlduy, August 26, as decided by the

was about eight lengths behind Mlchael

count of her breaking at the quarter-mils

might have been taking it easy with Mlch
aelangelo, but it did not look aa if ha waa.
A number of Omaha horsemen left Omaha
for Denver on Saturday mainly for the par
pose of getting Jim Ferry here for an ex
htbltlon, but Incidentally to sea how they
do things at the Denver matinee races.
Now that the great event Is over and the
cup gone to the one that deserved It, it
would be well for Omaha playtr to look
over what haa been done and to sea if they
cannot pick up any new wrinkles for fu
ture use. There' were numberless styles to
watch and numberless strokes to copy. The
style of play which each watcher thought
the most dangerous' is the style of play
each ought to copy. Of course It Is beet to
have an original style, but that boon la
only allowed to a few.

But few players journeyed forth from the
club houses with golf bag and caddie for
the links last week, the tennis tournament
and the automobllo races being the causes
of the falling off. Of course the usual

eighteen holes a part of their regular day's
work and who cannot sleep happy unless
they have rounded the course during the

One thing noticeable In this tournament
was that the visitors played a much faster
and snappier game than did the locai play
ers. Fletcher never gave up a ball until
he had lost the point, and when he went
after one he went after It with every ounce
of move that he had in him. Just consider
the number of "impossible" shots he re
turned. But the best part of the whole
affair was the showing made by the local
boys. Scrtbner, Pollard, Chase and Kohn,
all -youngsters in the game, went into that
tourney with a swing and smash; putting
up the best games they have ever played
and winding up where Sioux City cham
pions could not tread. It was not luck; It
waa simply good play and good team work.
In the singles Omaha lads were outclassed
from the start, but the best players from
this city were unfortunately pitted against
the cracks from out of town when nobody
expected them to win. Even then they did
well. Holland had no walkover with Scrib
ner and how the gallery cheered when the
Field club man soaked into the long-legged
artist from Galesburg for the first set. San
derson had easier work with Chase, but he
had to work to win and Kohn managed to
obtain six out of the twelve games in his
I match with Blatherwlck, and when it is
remembered that Blatherwlck was the Chi
cago university champion a few years ago
and has been playing tennis ever since, it
Is a decided honor for Kohn.
Many are the eccentricities of a tennis
player when it comes to a game, and many
were the eccentricities shown during the
last week. Blatherwlck in particular was
never happy unless he had a tenls ball
sticking out of each trouser pocket. At
times, when the game waaat its most ex
citing point, he would leisurely walk
across the court, pick up a ball, stick it in
his pocket and notice , with an angelic grin
the amused looks of the spectators. This
man also used both his hands, and he used
them mighty well. Holland of Galesburg
got even with Blatherwlck for beating him
by caricaturing him on the bulletin board
flops

The Beer That. Made Milwaukee famous.
and telling all that he waa from Cork.
And when that ambidextrous fellow saw
himself portrayed thus his grin grew even
more angelic, but he was not quite con
tent and happy, for he waa off the courts
and was minus the tennis balls in each
pocket. Magee of the Country club was a
4)lrd in this tourney. Not only did he rep
resent his club Well, but he ought to have
been seen when play was at the hottest
With Blatherwlck. Seeing the Rock Val
ley man using both hands, Magee got so
blamed excited that his left hand went
through all the motions of his right, which
hell the racket. Those who did not un
derstand the fine points of the game
thought he waa attempting to fly.
Another prominent figure was Holland.
That individual la about seven feet high
and. uses a racket made specially for him.
His great move is to stretch his legs from
one end of the court to the other and
play the game without moving an Inch.
When he is losing he pulls his white hat
over his eyes and looks mad. And Holland
looking mad Is enough to phase anybody.
That is the reason why Art Scrlbner lost
the match with him after winning the first
set. Art had seen Holland pick up J.
Rberhardt when he broke his ankle and
carry htm across the courts alone and he
did not like to offend a fellow who could
do such stunts as that. Another Gales
burg man, Fletcher, has a peculiar method
of restoring his strength after a strenuous
set. Others go in for ginger ale a la Field
club, but Fletcher has only to brush his
hair. Apart from this he Is without harm.
Sanderson was perhaps the only man that
did not have a trade mark; he went about
the game as if the whole thing did not
Interest him, but the opponent who got
Into that way of thinking was very badly
fooled. Lee of Sioux City and Pollard
or this city cnew gum while they play
and the faster the game goes the faster
they chew. When Chase Is losing he goes
in for destroying the court by banging it
with the end of his racket. Kohn, on the
J other hand, calms himself by patting down
with his feet the dents his partner makes.
Among the committee the rotund and
genial form of Mr. BHsh was the most
conspicuous. His was the Important task
of giving away buttons as souvenirs of
the tourney. And he made one wear the
button also. If you put In your pocket
he" collared you In moment and, with
a polite 'excuse me, but you haven't a
button," he would pin one on himself.
It was no use throwing It away; his quick
eyes got you In an Instant and polite as
ever he wouTd come forward with his
"excuse me" and on would go the button.
If that was thrown away he would be at
your side again and hand you two buttons
besides the- one he' pinned on. "One for

Mrs. and one for the baby," he would
say. He Invariably won his point. When
everybody waa buttoned he whlled away
the time by gathering a crowd and dis
cussing public questions, such as the ser
vant girl problem. William Wood spent
his time hunting up thirsty souls and re
galing them with ginger ale a la Field
club. His Job waa a snap. The referee,
F. J. Hill's chief work was In arguing
skeptical fellows Into umpiring the games
and in going around the courts with a long
cigar.
All in all, the tourney was a decided
success; the playing waa good, the con
testants eager and the gallery enthusiastic.
The cup has gone to the one who deserved
It and practice can now be commenced for
next year.
The man behind the golfer is the latest.
The following is a part of a speech show
ing how Me & Travis walloped Johnny Bull
&. Co. to a white frizzle, being the remarks
of Simeon Ford at a dinner given to Travis
In New York. The only Simeon said:
When me and Travis started to cross the
heaving billow and by the way, entro nous,
the billow was not the only thing which
heaved on the way over: our champ Is a
champ on land O. K., but on the water he
Is a chump, and although he never gives
up on terra ttrma, he gives up at sea
mighty easy as I was saying, when me
and Travis started over that 8,000-mlle
ferry, across which the trans-Atlantic lines
are now yanking the scum of Europe at
2 IDs per sCum (and God knows what we
are going to Jo with 'em, for heavtn knows
we have paupers enough here since our
financiers let us all In on the ground floor).
But, as I was saying, wnen me and
Travis started to cross the brlnv ocean
,(and 1 am going to get across this time If
l nave to swim across), It was with no In
tention of adding any fresh laurels to the
slightly shopworn ones which already be
decked our respective brows, but to seek
a much needed rest from the fatigue of
going down to the Garden City Golf club
every day on the 2:06, and to see and pront
by the example of the great masters of the
art of golf.
We me and Travis in our modesty (for
modesty and greatness ever go hand in
hand) had no hope of ever having to rush
that historic growler through the custom
house, but we thought we might enlarge
our horizon and Improve our game. Travis
thought his game might be improved and
i anew mine migni. we tnougnt we might
"paint the lily and gild refined gold."
Travis Improved his game and learned
some new wrinkles, and I Improved my
vocabulary and added some new wrinkles.
Well, we got across the ocean! Travis
was about the bummlest looking champion
you ever saw at sea, his brow "sicklied o'er
with the pale cast of thought" and he spent
the major portion of his time leaning over
the rail, perfecting his follow through snd
casting his breed upon the waters. His
heart was stout, but his stomach was weak.
"And still the wonder grew
That one small man
Could hold all that he threw."
But I got him over what was left of
him and we went up to Scotland and got
to work putting golf balls and high balls
and low balls.
Travis' play "was Ttbout the worst you
ever saw. A babe In arms could have
beaten him. I almost beat him myself.
Everybody licked him and finally he got
licked Into Shane. At St. Andrews we saw
Johnny Low and Balfour-Melville and Tom
Morris and the other historic ruins for
which the place is famous.
To four things msy be attributed Travis'
success. First and foremost was the Influ
ence of that trainer, guide, mentor and
friend whose peerless eloquence Is now. elec
trifying you. With all becoming modesty,
I sssert that I waa quite a factor In the
result. In the first place, constant associa
tion with me goaded him Into such a state
of, madness that he slmplv had to go out
and lick someone. And then he msrie a
careful study of my golfln style ard by
carefully ellmlnstlng everything I did he
attained perfection. Then there was tbnt
marie put ten, borrowed of a friend the day
before the tourney, it came from Scherieo- ;
tadv and it was s bird with salt on Its tall;
It was one of thee eutomatlc putters
which supplied the Intelligence.
