While most of the forenoon and afternoon ws a sed In cutting out tome of the, leaser lights, by means of "the first and second rounds, still some good tennis was played and was watched by a good slsed gallery from tha olub house porches. " , ' By far the most Interesting match of the first day wa that between Scrlbner smd Dr. Blatherwlek. Each had, won in tha first round by default and the match was In the second round. Scrlbner started ut Ilka a three-time winner and put tha doctor out fast In the first set, the score of which was t S. Scrlbner won tha Brst three games of tha second set when tha doctor braoed at tha same time when Scrlbner seemed to tire and won the set . Scrlbner waa all In on the third sot and could not rally so the doctor with his double cross action won with ease. The double, band work of the doctor la most bewildering. - When he changes hands to return some hard 'drive his opponent Is led to Ihlnk. the bail .will be a cross fire whereas It shoots straight back. V Xelllea 6pe; It. ' " . The first match was. called at Just 11 o'clock' and was between Krelgh Collins and A. Sherman. Considerable delay was experienced in marking oft the courts, but when this was done the games were played tit fast. The entries from out of the city were most ; encouraging to the . pro moters of the tournament, as many more were , sent, In from all over the country than ever before. . Wlad Checks Speed. A strong wind from the southwest made fast tennis Impossible ' and also made it hard for the laborers to mark out the courts with the dry lime. The tennis com mittee had everything -well in hand and the events were sent off according to schedule. All tha old favorites spent the forenoon, When not engaged In - playing. In renew ing acquaintances, and all expressed them selves as glad of an opportunity to return ajroln to enjoy the hospitality of the Field Club. V ' Friends of members are invited' by the directors of the Field, club to witness the matches, and the wide porches of the olub house will be given 'to the use of spec tators until they will hold no more, .when the lawns "can be used. Plenty of tennis enthusiasts in Omaha would' like an op portunity see Krelgh Collins and Hayes and some of the other sharks In action, and the Field club wishes all such to cornel , Krelgh ' Collins has been -here for two days trying 'but .the courts. As' he has not played ''sit the time' of 'writing the only features .noticeable to' the naked eye and which has attracted the most attention to. date are his London shoes.' They have air - cushions ' on the' bottom which give him a bound in the- air it the ball tries to .So over his head and are as efficacious as the rubber arms that Home Run naggerty tells'about.- He Is generally picked as the winner of "the Mldtjle West.' Collins ' was slightly out of 'form ttl prlng;- and went eat to practice. ' He Is a player of na tional reputation aha was a member of the .International team which went to England in June. He was matched for his first bout against A. Sherman of Kansas City. . .Collins did not' have to exert himself to clean-up Sherman, who was outclassed. His First Visit to West. This Is Collins first try. tn the west, as he has confined , his , operations heretofore to the east and Chicago, where all tourna ment courts are sod. He has reached the semi-finals several . times in "the national tournaments, has , been western champion for the last tlx years and has won in Tumorous other tournaments at Cincinnati, Pittsburg, Cleveland and other cities. "When he went to tha court Monday morn ing for. h! game with Sherman all eyes were immediately centered upon him. The 'busiest men on the whole 160 seres' of the . Field ' club . grounds ' were 1 Conrad Young, chairman of the tournament com - mlttee, and ' will - Wood, secretary of the meet. : These had to answer thousands of questions, as well as assign all the players to the proper, courts and ' lockers. The matches will be two rout of three to the semi-finals, and these and the finals will be three out of Ave. ...The drawings for the. doubles were made last evening at the Field club and play will start on- these Tuesday morning. ' Walter T. Hayes, . the - present middle west champion. Is on hand 'to . defend his title, " being compelled to play with the winner "of the tournament or forfeit Hayes has. been playing considerably this spring and summer, last week winning the title of champion In the Trt-State singles played at Sioux City. He and Dr. Blather- wick.- the ambidextrous player .who always attracts so 'much attention,1 won the dou bles ,,lsst week at Sioux City, and they wilt enter In this tournament. Hayes also made a try In the Chicago Western tourn ament, but, not being used to the grass courts he wss 'put out by Byford.- Hayes la playing much faster than he was. last Tear ana is expected to be a surprise to some of the eastern cracks, as he ws last ar. terry of Crete Nebraska. A noted i athlete' In attendance at the tournament Is fharles B. Perry of Crete, Neb. Mr. Perrv has bean nnii ln .ii-tt sorts of athletics since a mere child and laat year' was lert end and manager of Poane College's famous foqtball team. He baa taken a week off from his arduous . .v.,......- , . labors to play a little tennis and the boys of Saline county are looking for Mr. Perrv too well dewn the line in the tournament.' . r If 'ha' ran play tennis as well as he can play football and baseball some f these boys will have to look to their laurels. Qalesburg Is represented by Holland Sanderson and' Fletcher, all of whom have been here before. They have all played In both doubles and single and all have taken home trophies front' the Middle West tour naments. Sanderson Is the oldest In years of experience of the trio and has been play. Ins tha sam for Just twenty-seven veiu-a. iie la especially strong in piecing and is a good overhead player. Sanderson is a theatrical manager, and as the summer sea. - . l jicconneu oi imutna D sen Is dull in his line he lias plenty off Oldham of Boaeateel e-t, 4-t ttne to devote to tennis, which Is of rourso s,', subimer game. 'He is a good all-round ina'o,' being a splendid base ball player and a1 good golfer. He spends most of the sum mer playing in tournaments and Is sure be found well along to the finish K'otchor is the busiest ma a of the trio as he-haa to hurry to the telegraph office &Mt the people up north know, how the Aays events havo finished. He ia a banker while at home and takes. his vacation at tennis tournaments. He Is the eaahler and no player, can, outcount htm. Holland la her with Lis tali angular form and a new wwtuh fob, -When liar at the lovrnsunent tare y ears age be baA tag Ooeat bead work fob which had reached Omaha tip to that time and was the envy of all the players because of the attention he attracted by his watch fob an4 the peculiar eat of .those Oaleshurg trovtsets. ' These boys are tennts players from fie drop of the hat and the west will have to' pull far soma of these to put out Krelgh Collins, the Chicago crack, who Is picked by tte gallery as the winner. Prise List Oae the Beef; The prise list for this tournament is one of the best ever hung up In the west, over 1600 In real money having bead spent by the tournament committee to get some prises worth playing for. - This tourna ment has become such an established in stltutlon the Field club is not at all nig gardly In hanging up some good and valuable prises. These will be on ex hibition In Browning-King's window until Saturday morning,, when they will be brought to the Field club for distribution Saturday night. The entertainment of the visitors is one of the real features of the tournament. Last night they were taken to the Den and allowed to drink at the fountain of youth and to ride -the goat and shoot the chutes. In fact, nothing was .withheld from these visitors from all parts of the country, and they were given tne times of their young lives. They will have something to tell about besides defeats at tennis, when they return to their own fireside. ' " - gome Social Divests. For Tuesday night the real sport has been prepared In the shape of a gymkehna. All the players are supposed to go into 'these events, wbioh will furnish 'all aorta of fun for the participants as well as for the visitors. Last year a ball game waa played with the players all' roped together and the pitcher and batsmen .confined by . bar rels. What the committee has In store for this year only the future will show. ' For Wednesday night a dance has been' ar ranged, or- rather It- will-, be the regular scmi-wefklydance. at the'FieM lertib with special attention paid to the visitors, lof whom are' -invited to- come. The young women will take this opportunity to' be flic to the visitors and make them forget for the time .the dear hearts at . home. . Thursday night will be given' over to an automobile ride around the city, which will also Include the Country club. A banquet will be given, to the visitors at the Field tlub Friday night, at which time some well known speakers will spout a few lines. Saturday night will be given over to a Jolly good time at the Field club, when the prises will be distributed and the regular weekly dance will be held. These splendid entertainments are half of the fun for many of the boys who have come to look upon the Middle West as Just the right place to spend their vacations. , ' One - of the Veterans. ' One of the most enthusiastic players from out of the city is R. It. Beard, a banker of Fella, la. Although over (0 years 'old, Mr. Beard is entered In the tournament, being put out Monday morning by Jack Hughes. He will start In the consolations. Mr. Beard has some young players .of excel ent calibre with him who he hopes will be able to pick up some good points during the week. "These courts are certainly fine," said Mr. Beard, ."and are kept In nice shape. I have three courts in my garden at home" which are always open to the young people of our town. They seem to dry off much quicker than these. They are '' occupied good deal ' of the time, although I can never' play until after ; 4 o'clock! I think I will have to offer a good prise' for next year for all players over 45. That ought to attract some, of these bid fellows of Omaha ' who think' 'they , can play tennis. I think Fletcher, has Improved wonderfully In his game, since, his last visit here and should be heard before' this tournament. Is over- '.,'.. . , '. ..' Charles 8. Peters comes as the partner of Krelgh.. Collins. - In. the .doubles and. Js well known to followers of tennis in the west as the runner up' at the last tourna ment of the Middle West. He and . WaJd. ner won the Illinois state championship. In doubles this year. . All remember the happy smile of Peter's face last year as he. the finished player, went down before -the fine all around work of Hayes, the farmer boy frpm Iowa. Peters has everything a tennis player should have, .except the. ability.. to get over, the ground. Here Is where Hayes excelled him and . put him out.' His dis tinctive stroke is his back 'hand sweeping drive. He has no weak point to his play and volleying both low and overhead Is an opponent worthy of the best of them. He and Collins both serve with the cut stroke overhead which . makes., the. ball bound most deceptively, -according to the cut.. ' .';',' Dr. Blatherwlek Is Here. Dr. Blatherwlek, the ambidextrous, is again ' on hand. He comes with many new laurels slnoe his last appearance in Omaha, . At Chicago he made a splen did showing and at Minneapolis was the runner up. Last week he won the tour nament which gave htm the, privilege of playing against W.T.' Hayes, the holder of the championship title In the Tri-State association, the same as he is tn the Mid dle West. No more , tantalising, player enters the courts than' this same doctor. When Fletcher first played against him he was up in the air all the .time, for the good doctor has several peculiarities. He always has several balls stored away tn his pockets,, but his .ability to return te ball equally well with either hand is his real , strength. A player thinks he.' has placed the ball out of. his reach but the doctor simply takes his racket in the other band and makes the return. Summary of the Start. First round: . F. K.

Pa Rourke had several somnambulists on his nine out at Vincent street park yester day afternoon and therefore Denver took the third game of this series by a score of t to 1. It wss a disheartening game at times and at other times a good game of ball. McNeeley pitched the ball that wins games, but In one or two Innings at least he received support that could be seen most any day tn the week on any of the lots around town. The clomax . was reached In fourth in ning. Randall, the first man up, hit for a base. Russell went out to Dolan and Randall got second, which was all right. Then Wetghandt, Bill Everett's little gold mine of a catcher, sent a ball moderately swift, down to short. Runkle, after hold ing a conference with himself, decided not to put his hands on it and let the ball go en. The thing meandered lastly like out toward center whan It encountered Dr. Welch. The . ball looked like a crippled Jack '. rabbit hobbling home after being shot, but at that It got the better of Weloh, for Instead of stooping down and picking It up, he slipped on the green grass, rolled over a time or two and Jumped up Just in time to see his friend, Bassoy, also getting up after , likewise . falling down over the poor vball which, by this tiine: had stopped Itself.'' Wetghardt was -turning the 'corner at, third. and was'hotrfe long before the 'ball reached the plate; as a matter of fact it never did reach there. It waa a home run on what ought to have been an out from short to first. More Misery Still. But that wasn't all of this delightful Inning. Reddlck came to bat and pumped out a two-bsgger. By this time things were really getting good, but Just to show they could be better, Welch, when Donohue lifted a high one In his hands, dropped it, letting In another run. Several golden opportunities of scoring were thrown away . by Omaha. In the seoond- Inning Welch lammed out a single and went to seoond on Dolan'a beautiful hit to left. Then Runkle got first on a fielder's choice and Joe wont out. Welch was on third when Howard put a bouncer right In Reddick'a hands. Welch, instead Of waiting for Howard to draw the throw to first, without a ghost of a show of scoring, went galloping off for home and of course was thrown but. With a hit by Dolan, and one by Runkle in the ninth Inning another mess was made, but no runs. . Omaha made Its lone run In the seventh Inning. Runkle hit for two bases, went to. third on Howard's single, which ought, by all means, to have scored him, and home on McNeeley's out to first. Joe Dolan played a great game at first, taking all of fifteen chances, and Perrlng though weak at the bat, put up one of his star games at third. Dolan, Welch and Runkle each got two hits. Smith of Denver did some magnificent work at short. McNeeley held the visitors to five hits end two of" these were abortions, nor did he pass a man, but struck out three. Autrey still has that chance to make good as a slugger. Edlnger, ths ump.' has good features, but he was off badly at times on bills sod strikes. . .. , ; . The same 'teams play today.
