Imahn's Star Second Mnj
l.eae Another Irtuii anl Perhaps
Bir Ball Career hy Repetition
of Lnat Year'a MUaap.
Oniahs, 2; Wichita, 6. "
It I had enough to lose a name of baa
ball, hut to lose it after th home team haa
a lead moat of the way through the game
la hard on the nerve to the fana. That,
however, la the bitter pill they had to
wallow at Vinton park Thureday In the
second name of the serlee with Wichita.
Wichita made tha first run In the opener,
but Omaha came bark with one In the
second and another In the third. Thus It
atood with the score, 2 to 1 In favor of
the Rourke family until the fateful sev
enth, when all hopes were shattered.
Weaterxll's two-eacker to tha left field
fence drove In tha run that tied the acore
and then Captain Franck let an eaay
grounder paai between his legs and the
winning run was acored. Three more were
added for good meaatire by Wichita In the
lHt Inning.
Wichita haa made a hit with the Omaha
fana. for Jack Holland, with the aid of
Isxy Isbcliy haa .collected a bunch of
youngsters who play ball all the time.
They are full of ginger and alwaya right
after tha ball. That they are alwava
poking la out la ahown by the acore which
reveal the fart that the ten men who
were retired were put out on balla hit a
good lick by the willow.
Tracy John waa on the hill for Pa and
he did right well until tha eeventh Inning,
when a hit and an error seemed to dis
commode him. A alngle and a double down
the third base line were made off hla de
livery In tho first Inning, and then for
five Inninga the Hollanders could not con
nect safely. for a single hit. Fut the rest
of the game waa a different atory.
Graham's .Accident. Serious.
A worse blow than losing the game be
fell the Rourke family when In practice
before the game George Graham, tha bril
liant second baseman, again threw his knee
nut of place. Friends of Graham have
feared alt along that hla knee waa not
fully ' recovered from fhe bad wrench of
last year, but he Inaiated on playing and,
although his knee has .pained him at times,
he had played In every game this year
without Injury. There was a slippery spot
between second and flrat and on this Gra
ham slipped In practice and threw the
knee out. It la feared the accident may
keep him out of the game tha reat of the
year, if not forever. His place was taken
by King and Belden- went to center.
Again must the sad story of a lost game
be told. ' With two out In the first In
ning .Cola hit a, clean single. Pennell fol
lowed w4h a long two-base drive down the
third: base foul Un and drove Cole home.
Thati started Wichita off In the lead, but
Omaha seored one In each the second and
third and took tha lead.
Shaner did the slab work for Wichita and
the first two men up were fanned by hla
benders, while Fendry knocked the ball to
second. It began to look as though. the
game, might be a repetition of the day be
fore, with Brennan In the box.
In the second inning, however, Kane
started out by drawing a paas. Welch sac
rificed him to second. Belden sent him on
home- by a . two-sacker. , The fans took
courage and dared to hope Omaha might
win. They were sure the Rourkes would
win after the second Inning when with one
out Fleher doubled, went to third on King's
single and acored on Fendrys sacrifice fly
to Pennell.
Both pitchers now went like clockwork
until; -the seventh when with one out Rob
erts Was walked and scored on Westerxll'e
double. That tied the score. The Infield
came . In close and Weaver hit a hard
drive 'which went through Buck Franck'a
legs and the winning run waa scored.
Nine men faced Johns In the ninth and
three 'of them crossed the home plate. The
cause ; was four hits, a passed ball and
King's error.
Today will be ladles' day, with Wichita
still the attraction. The acore;
OMAHA.

Parsons waa at the parte In a uniform,
but he is no longer a member of tha
Rourke family.
King dropped an eaay toased ball on
which he had a chance to make a double
play. He waa too eager for the chance.
King waa forced to pay a fine of 310 be
fore be could play in the game yeaterday.
Trie tine, was put. on him by Mullen at

King made the atar play of the day when
he soared In the air after Westersil's drive
In the fifth Inning and pulled It down with
one hand.
Fisher did not get a put out In his garden,
but he had two Aaslsts and one of them waa
a pretty throw from deep field to the home
home plate.
Wheeler, the new umpire, waa formerly
on tha umpiring staff of tha Southern
league. Three base decisions he made on
Thureday were not to the liking of the
fans, tor they were all against the home
team.
Weaver Is endowed with considerable
luck for some reason or other. The Omaha
team made three errora and each of them
allowed Weaver to reach first, as they were
made when he hit tne ball. Borne people
say there Is nothing In else.

Well, of course. Parsons Is a great pitcher,

CHICAGO, May 18. Chicago and Wash
ington battled for seventeen innings today
nd the game waa called on account of
arkness with the score 1 to 1. White al
lowed only one hit In the last ten Innings.
Manager Cantlllon's tactics In the seve
nteenth Innings probably saved his team
from defeat. The locals had men on sec
ond and third with one out. Manager Sul
livan then took himself out of the game
nd sent In Welday, a left-handed better.
When Canttllon saw this move he Bent
Hughes, who was pitching, to right field
nd sent In Gray, a left-handed pitcher.
ulllvan countered by taking out Welday
fter Gray had pitched one ball to him.
Then Cantlllnn tried to withdraw Gray
nd aend Hughes back against Owens, a
Ight-handed hitter. According to the new
rule It was up to Gray to finish pitching
to the man who waa then catting or give
paas. After some heated argument the
umpires forced Gray to continue pitching to
Owens. He did and passed him. Tanne
hill was the next man up and Hughes re
turned to the box, while Ganley went to
right field. Tannehill hit to Hughes and
Altlzer waa forced at the plate. White
ended the chances with a grounder to
Delehanty. Score:

Summaries at Louisville
and Jamfilown.
NEW YORK. May 13 The Irng-deferred
nd anxious-awaited opening of the Metro
politan racing season, which was coupled
this year with the running of the classic
Metropolitan handicap, passed Into turf
history today with the winning at Bel
mont Park of the Blue Ribbon event of
the occasion by S. C. Hlldreth'a fleet 4-year-cld
colt King James, from a field of
eleven starters. Fayette, the Madden en-
ry, finished six lengths behind, with Jug
gler, a 6-year-old gelding entered by C. C.
Smlthson, a close third.
The conditions were Ideal In point of
weather nnd served to bring out a fash
ionable crowd, In which the gay colon
worn by the women predominated. These,
agalnat the emerald green of the well-
kept lawns and track lnclosure, made a
brilliant picture and Imparted a garden
party flavor to the occasion. In the grand
stand the attendance was considerably
slimmer than on previous Metropolitan
handicap days. The entire number aggre
gated less than 10,000, but In view of the
ban placed on race trnck betting last year
by the Hart-Agnew law, the falling off
was not such as to create surprise.
Oral Bettlnar Permitted.
The betting question looms large In the
racing world and today's opening was
awaited with much trepidation by those
followers of the sport who have been wont
to lay wagers on the chances of the horses
engaged. The net results of the day were
that under materially circumstances bet
ting of a sort Is tolerated. The new form
however. Is a travesty of the practice
which flourished In previous years. Un
der cover of a decision of the appellate
division, which permits oral betting, the
layers of odds took up their stations on
the concourse in front of the grandstand
In whispers, and by nods accepted wagers
and gave odds. The method was veiled In
mystery, accompanied by searching glances
and stealthy looks. If the would-be bettor
waa known to the bookmaker, his bet was
accepted with a muttered "you're on." No
money was passed, the "bookmaker'
trusted the bettor to search him out after
the race and pay him the amount of hla
wager If he lost, and the bettor on his part
trusted the "bookmaker" to look him up
In the same fashion and give him his win
nlngs If he won. Some of the layers of
odds settled outside of the grounds after
the last race, and others on the trains
coming back, but most of them put off
settlement until tomorrow morning, at ap
pointed headquarters In town.
Eaay Victory for Kins; James.
The race of the day, the Metropolitan
handicap, waa won In handy fashion, for
King James led the field by six lengths.
The eleven starters got off well, with the
Hildreth entry quoted at 8 to 6 and 2 to 1.
In the lead, closely followed by Nimbus,
an added starter. At the far torn King
James forged to the front, and from then
on the race was his. Fayette waa well up
all the way and finished second, nosing
out Juggler, who finished a strong third.
Favorites fared badly during the day,
only two, King James and Newmarket,
winning. The other winners, however,
were well played. Agent, an added starter
In the steeplechase and backed from fives
to fours, defeated the 4 to 8 favorite, Sir
Wooster, In a mild drive.
The field, where thousands have assem
bled In former yeara for a cheap admis
sion, waa closed today and this was one
of the noticeable omissions of the usual
race track features.
Racing will be resumed at Belmont park
on Saturday, for It has been planned by
the Jockey club to have racing on only
three days of each week. Tuesday, Thurs
day and Saturday, until the public shows
by Its attendance that more racing days
are desired. Summaries:

LAST YEAR'S RECORD IK DANGER
Omaha Athletes foatdent They tan
Do Better Than In 1f)0, When
snent at End.
With high hope of doing many times
better this year than Isst at the stale high
school track and field meet, ten con
tested, and forty or fifty rooters will
leave Omaha this morning at 8:16 o'clock
to attend the content at Lincoln.
At the meet last year the Omaha con
tingent won fourth place from the last
or, in other words, It trailed in for thir
teenth place, with half a Ooxen dinky
schools out In the sand hills beating It to
a fraxile. This time the show will be a
better one from the Gate City gtandnotnt,
and If expectations, determination and
skill count. Omaha will rank htgh. How
ever, with Lincoln's strength and that of
several other schools, the. locals are not
hoping to carry off first honors.
Two men from each school will enter In
each event, and the Omaha lsds are taking
as many as the rules allow. The team Is
made up ss follows and will enter In the
events Indicated:
Captain Ralph Welrlck ino-yrri and 2?n
jard dashes, 230-yard hurdles and pole
tault.
Bob Thompson 120-yard hurdles, high
jump, pole vault, si ot, discus and hammer.
Bob Wood lW-yard and 2J0-yard dashes,
broad Jump.
V. Warner 440-yard dash, broad and high
jumps.
Harry Kulakofsky Mile end half-mile
runa.
H. Fraser 440-yard dash and half-mile
run.
Alfred Kennedy Mile run.
Ed Burdlck Shot and discus. .
H. Andrus Hammer.
Benson Rowley 220-yerd hurdles.
Halt-mile relay team: Rowley, Warner,
Wood and Weirlck.
Some of Ihe Stare.
Among the Omaha contestants who are
expected to take places are Burdick In the
shot put. Thompson In the high hurdles.
Wood and Weirlck In the dashes, Weirlck
In the low hurdles. Andrus in the hammer
throw, Kennedy In the mile run, and the
relay team In their race.
Burdlck Is doing over forty feet in with
the lead ball, In spite of the fact that he
was in a hospital for leg trouble not long
ag3. Long Bob Thompson has developed
some wonderful form In lifting those pedal
extremities of his over the hurdles. - As
Weirlck and Wood both pressed the win
ners of the Missouri valley Interecholastlo
meet for places In the daahes, they are
thought to be In the way of bringing home
a few ribbons from Lincoln, esiwclally aa
they have Improved since the last race.
Andrua has Improved with his hammer
tossing and has broken the local record,
while Al Kennedy la sure of giving Cham
pion Wright of Kearney good run In the
mile.
Fine form in almost all case haa been
developed since working out was glvtn
awhile ago. With some good work at the
state meet Friday and soma further prac.
tice, the locals expect to do big things to '
Lincoln when the dual meet with the high
school athletes ot that city It held In
Omaha, May 29.
