Omaha. 7. Oc Molnss, S.
Stun? again!
"lnlioff's home run poke, over the left
field fence decided a twelve-'nnlng battle
at Vinton park In favor of Des Moines,
before one of the largest Saturday crowds
' of the season. It was not the first offenje
for the Russian count either, for In the
1 third Inning he attainted most materially
' In driving tower to the stable when he
' hit ths ball over the same fence with two
1 on bases ahead of htm.
For three Ion hours the Rourkes and
, Higgtnses did battle for that same, and
during all that time the outcome was In
doubt so that scarcely a fan left the stands
until the Russian made his winning drive.
The came was so full of features that
1 something was happening all the while.
Such heavy hitting has seldom been seen
on an Omaha lot. Three home runs were
driven over the fence, two by Nlehoff and
one by Welch. The first six hits Omaha
made were for extra bases, but after the
seventh when Omaha tied the score. Miller
tightened up and no more hits were made
until the eleventh, when Fisher singled.
mtnrr of Defeat.
Lower started to work for Omaha, and
for two Innings It looked as though things
were going to run smooth for him. Ex
cept for a base on balls. It was one, two,
three. In the third Lewis, the kid catcher
Des Moines recently secured from some
amateur team at Chicago, opened with a
double and Miller negotiated a sacrifice.
Ialton hit another double and Lewis
cored. Colllgan grounded one to Franck,
who tossed the ball to the, skipper, but
Slugger Bill dropped It after he had
tagged his man. That was the beginning
of the trouble. Colllgan went to second
on a wild pitch and both he and Dalton
cored on Hader'a single. Mattlck walked
and Dwyer flew to King. Then came the
"Russian- with hlrf 'trouble-maker. He
landed squarely and boosted the ball over
the fehce, driving two in ahead of him.
Williams singled, . but was caught trying
to steal second.
Omaha had made a run In the second
without a hit on Niehoft's error, Franck's
sacrifice pn which Schlpke took two
sacks and Oondln'a lnlield out. With
Im Moines five rum to the good the
Rourke family atarted the chase which
nded In the scors being tied in the
seventh. Fendry hit a triple in the third
and acored on Welch's double. Welch
cored on Schlpke's sacrifice fly after
getting to third on bases on balls to
Kane and King.
In the fdurth Welch hit the ball over
the right field fence for a homer. In
the sixth, with two out. Fisher walked
and Pendry tallied him with a triple, but
Welch could net help Pendry along. King
and Bchlpk scored la the seventh on
doubles by King and Schlpks, two passed
balls and a sacrifice fly by Franck.
Miller Ends 9eorlnar.
Miliar tightened up after that and
neither side had much chance to score
until the eleventh, when both should have
cored. Lewis hit a pop-up . In the
eleventh, which Pendry dropped. Miller
scratched a safe blngle, and when Daltnn
laid one down In front of the plate Oon
dlng nailed Lewis at third. Colllgan
bunted toward third, but ganders could
not get the ball and he waa safe. Miller
was caught leading off by a neat throw
by Oondlng and Bader grounded to Pen
ary. Fisher singled In ths eleventh, with one
out, and stole second. Tendry's Infield
out put him on third and Welch drew a
' pass. Kane hit a long fly. which Dalton
pulled off the right field fence. A little
higher and the game would have gone
. to Omaha.

WICHITA
DEFEATS " PUEBLO
Local Team Pats Up Errorless Game
and Wins Easily.
WICHITA, Kan., July 24 Back on their
own grounds the locals put up an errorless
game and won easily from Pueblo in the
fastest game that has been played here
this season. Both Altchlson and Swift
were in fine form and hits were scarce.
Altchlson had the better of the argument
and also the better support. In the third
and fourth Innings he retired the aides , on
strikes, Mltze, Swift, Curtis, Spencer,
Clark and Miller being the vlctltms. A
single by Pettlgrew and a double by Altch
Uoii gave Wichita one In the second. Er
rors by Corban and Swift and Hughes' sac
rifice were responsible for another In the
sixth. The last two were on hits by Cole,
Hughes and Pennell and Miller's over
throw of third base. Two fast double
plays were features, especially one by
Swift and Corhan, when the big pitcher
grabbed Westerxll's liner. A two-base hit
by Miller and a single by Walters gave the
visitors their only run In the ninth. Score:

Cub Potter Is city tennis champion oi
Omaha.
Ever since his first appearance on th
Field club courts as a contestant In tuorna
menta Cub Potter has been reckoned a
one of the coming youngsters, but by t hit
year's victory he graduates Into the veterat
class and will be expected to do great deed'
with the racquet.
Herbert Kohn, the runner up. Is an olde
and more experienced player, but Cub fount
him comparatively easy, winning 6-2, 8-4, 8-1
Kohn'a playing was very plainly not up t
form, as he has beaten both Sam Caldwel
and "Spike" Kennedy, and has been i
factor In tournaments for a long time. HI
record of three hours' hard playing li
matches Friday afternoon probably hai
something to do with It. as he was unabb
to play with the speed and dash that woult
have been necessary to win. Cub did no
play as spectacular a game as he ran o
as he d'd later In the doubles because h
did not seem to think It .necessary.
Doubles Match a Warm One,
The doubles match, which was won b
Cub Potter and Harry Koch over Arthu
Scrihner and Herbert Kohn, was a muc!
closer and more Interesting fight. Kocl
and Potter lost the first set and thry canv
near giving up the second, but when the:
found that their best work was needed
their playing was brilliant to a degree tha
would have made some Impression on th
"world beaters," Hayes and Peters. Koh'
did much better work here than In th
singles, and Scrlbner played a splendlt
game, but the fine net work and smashlni
of their opponents waa too much for them
Scrlbner played harder than he usuall
does, throwing generalship aside, an
fighting every hopeless point to the last
The number of long-fought and surprlsln,
points kept the gallery Interested evr:
minute of the match.
McConnell Wins Consolation.
Score 4-6, 6-4, 7-6, b'-4.
The consolation singles was won by Ly
man McConnell, who beat Fred Stebbln
6-1, 6-7. 6-1. This followed his match wltl
R. J. Shoemaker, the newcomer, who wa
expected 'to give him a hard battle, bu
went down by a score of 6-3, 3-6, 6-2. Pteb
bins Is a young player, who has neve
played in a Field club tourney before, an.
who has displayed considerable promise.
The cup for the singles championship I
new this year, as last year's trophy wa
taken by Conrad Voung for his own afte
three successive winnings. The new cu
is said to be a beauty, hut It has not hen
brought from the engraver's. Beside get
ting his name on the cup Potjer gets
silver cigarette case. Kohn as runner-uj
gets a pair of gold cuff buttons. Thet
will be no challenpe round, as Con Toun
Is In Europe and cannot defend his title.
The doubles cups are old ones, that n
one has ever been able to win twice I
succession, which Is necessary for flnt
possession. lst year's winners, Cub Pot
ter arid Whlltemore, cannot defend, t
Whlttemore is not in the city, so tha
Potter's name will go on again with Koc
as partner. The first prizes are gold wato
fobs and Kohn and Scrlbner as runners-u
get brass book racks.
The first prize In consolations, whlc
goes to Lyman McConnell, Is a fine tennl
racquet. Stebbins' trophy Is a pair t
cores for the Day.
