Next Saturday the squad will journey to
Waaoo. where they will mast th Wahoo
KIrh school aspirants In the first dia
mond contest between the two schools
during the Isst six years. Logan High
school at Logan win probably be th op
ponents of the locals on Saturday, May
S. with South Omaha High as contend
ers early In th following week on th
home grounds.
Th team win wind up the season by
playing Blair High school at Blair on
Thursday.) June , which will, be visitors
day of th annual encampment of the
cadet regiment of th school.
Just at present the lsds are playing
creditable ball, and although tha last two
rames against Harlan High and Council
Bluffs High hav been checked up In the

aged and expect to pull oft tha remaining
games In winning style.
John McFarlsnd, 13. and Mark Hushes,

Headricks Will Lead HU
Baaeh of Bears Her for
Foar Ctamea.
Th Topeka Kaws, under tha manage
ment of Dale Gear, will make their Initial
appearance of the season In Omaha to
morrow afternoon, when they open a
four-grjne serteaat Rourke park with ths
Omaha baa ball team. Dale has a good
bunch of ball players, with him and th
games sre sure to be hard fought one.
Mor than ordinary Interest Is being
displayed in th series with the Kswa
Should ths Rourkes take the majority
of th games they will cinch third place
in th avarage column, whereas If they
loose, they wit drop down Into fourth
place and get tangled up with a bunch of
th second division club. From the wsy
th Omaha team has been going lately
there la no other way to figure than that
th Rourkes will take at least three
games of the series and possibly all of
them.
After Topeka leaves, th Denver Grls-
slles will invade the Rourke camp. Omaha
will do its best to trounce this bunch
snd by this course push themselves up
into second or first place. Much Interest
Is being displayed In the Denver-Omaha
series. Th Bears war always th team
that Omaha liked to go for. Last year
they won tha pennant and are of tho be
lief that they will hav no trouble In
duplicating th stmt again this season.
Th Denver team will arrive In Omaha
Friday morning and will play here Fri
day afternoon. Saturday and Sunday and
Monday. Reservations hav bean made
by th fans In Omaha for sests on Sat
urday and Sunday and from present In
dications over 0,000 people will ba out to
th gam next Sunday. '
A war fress Heae.
Th Denver team la on a twenty-day
trip away from homo and tha various
teams m .th league are working their
best to try and pull th Bears out of
first place before they get back. This
ought sot to be a very difficult feat, con
sidering that th Denver bunch at not
going near as fast as It was last year and
all tha other team are at least I par
cent stronger than last season.
Omaha has a wonderful chance to push
themselves Into first place in th next
sixteen days. They will meet during this
time four different teams. Topeka. Den
ver, Lincoln and Wichita. If tha Rourkes
can get the long end of th games dur
ing th first eight games they ought
not have much trouble to take the bulk
of th games In th last eight. Lincoln
