THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: SEPTEMBER 2D, 1912. 3-S And the Weight Was Solid Iron This Time Drawn for The Bee by "Bud" Fisher 221" JWCMKU . r kZZ ," 1vHNH fJ BOOB CAN t P T h m wmmmm a iei ma mxm xz&sa i-.. ., "ii in i -awtfB b a HH.iirangjiM'A ismBTi i jmmmmuummMxjM. mi R.IGHT in rH6 bulls eve; i, i ' M Judgments J S" ,0 Murphy says Chance will not manage the Cubs next year. Chance indicated . that pretty -clearly to Mr. Murphy by hla sick- bed retort to Murphy' nasty fling . at the manager about loose training methods and drink beating the Cubs. jChance'8 contract expires this fall and if he Is able to return to the came it will gratify real sports to have htm at the head of a team whose owner knows how to appreciate good services. What does : Murphy want? Chance won four peo- nants and two world's championships for shim in five years. What other manager I has done that or half that In the few years Murphy has been in base ball? ! Murphy was never a sport.'; He never j knew how to lose. He Is yellow through ! and through. He began his squealing this I season before the Giants won the race by j saying the Cubs could not beat the um j pires and the "combine McGraw had (framed" against his team, intimating that the president of the league was In collusion to beat Chicago. Base ball !a cleaner than that. Such talk by" a- team owner is incendiary in its effect There ought to be a way of curbing it Chance cannot be injured by it, though. His record for rigid discipline and successful achievements all these years, to say nothing of his Individual excellence as a player and hia Integrity as a man, place him above harm by Murphy. For two years he has been a semi-Invalid as a result of his faithfulness to Murphy and the game and this is his , reward from that source. Chance well . says in his rebuke of Murphy that the players work harder, for his sake, in hia absence than In his presence. But how hard do they work . for Murphy's Bake? Murphy has blackwashed McGraw, Lynch and others he could not domineer over, or beat Base ball needs none of that to make It go. The sooner It gets rid of the ballast the better." Indeed, it is to be hoped ; Chance 'Will not manage the Cubs next: year. . WAR PAINT IS BEING DONNED Amateur Foot Ball Season Will Open in Omaha Next Sunday. GOOD MATERIA!, IS AVAILABLE Managers and Conches Have Been Selected sad a Nnnir of Classy Teams Will Be in the Field. Now for the world's series, beginning October 8. It ought to. be a close fight Both teams are strong and in good trim. Boston's chief strength seems to lie in Its pitching wonder, Wood, and its fast nd heavy-hitting outfield, - while the Giants are In' there strong with the good old Matty, Tesreau and Marquard, If he Is right; a wonderful infield and greater experience in such clashes. As between the directing heads, of the-teams, pos , slbly there Is not so much difference, yet our guess is , that McGraw Is not sur passed In any detail of generalship . by Stahl. If there, is a more resourceful manager ' than the pugnacious ' Muggsy we don't know him and yet, we" think,' others have got as' good or better results frorfl different systems. All in all, it is a hard task to predict the winner in this series, Just as it has always been a hard task to pick a world's championship winner. One reason is that seven games may by no means determine the superior team, another is that two such teams are so closely matched as a rule as to . leave to the slightest turn. of fortune determina tion of results. New York surely, by repeating' In the 'National league has earned the ; right to win the world's series arid many old fans would be gratified if it did, feeling that Boston, a young set of men on thewhole, had time to watt, much, as it deserves credit for its splendid development in the last few years. But that Is all sentiment. It seems about time for the National league to get back the world's title, which has been won"'ltjr the American three time since and including ,1906, by the White Sox once and Athletics twice. To be sure, the old organization has had it three times In that period, twice by the Cubs and once by the PJrates. Omaha has made it about as hard as it could for itself in closing the season in second place. It should so, of course. It would be incomprehensible for it to drop behind St. 'Joes after the ball it had been playing at home. But for one slump , in the earlier part of the season, the Rourkes would have walked away .with the flag, for" Denver, It will be remem bered, ran Into a swamp there for a while that kept H hustling to hold onto a first division place. And you recall how Manager Jack yanked the boys to gether. They have been winning ever since. , . , All right, Denver, i is your"; you won it fairly and deserve the victory. Here's hoping you have a better team next year,-so-that if Omaha takes the flag Its achievement will be all the greater. In the meantime, draw up your chair and let's discuss plans for the Corn ebb season. Isn't It a laughable thing to think of the Pacific coast league drafting from the Western? What a farce I If Rube Marquard falls to deliver In this series, Muggsy ought to beat with a clothes' pole. Why not put Fremont or another good Nebraska town In Topeka's place for 1913? Minneapolis' winning the American as sociation race Is getting stereotyped. My, but won't the beans crackle it Bos ton should win! There Is an abundance of good amateur foot ball material available, and several first class teams will be molded by the different Omaha managers. The Diets squad, which performed mir acles on the gridirons for several years, has at last answered the call to the happy hunting grounds. It used to be a matter of course for the Shamrocks and Dieta to fight for the honors towards the ter. mlnatlon of the season. Before the Diets team broke into the limelight It was customary for the Shamrocks to walk off with all the glory. Last week the Superiors, local cham pions, could not get a thorough work out because the weather mterferred. -Their coach has given them a lot of new plays and formations to master. Several plays which they Intend to try out this season deal with the forward pass and from ap pearances this department of the game will receive considerable attention by them. They will play their first game on Sunday, October 6. Teams desiring games should address William Byerly, 8022 Q street South Omaha, or telephone South MTL John Andrew recently made up his mind to again perform with the Superiors after throwing a scare into the rest f.t the bunch by letting them think that he probably couldn't be with them. ' Last Sunday the Defenders had their initial workout and they will continue the program today.. The Belmonts will present an unusually strong lineup and are sure to make a splash. George A. Hageman is supreme cook and bottle washer, he being the manager and the coach. Herewith 1b the lineup: Westergard, center; Rosslter, Walt and Harvey.' guards; Bohan and Kelley, tacklers; O'Connor, H. McGreary and McAndrewa, ends; McCreary and Mc Andrews, quarterbacks; Lldel, Bressman and McCabe, halves; Baohman and Man nigan, fullbacks. Again the Monmouth Park Reserves will endeavor to cover themselves with glory. They will be under the personal direction of Henry Jordan and under his tutorship they should make an excellent showing. They average about 120 pounds In weight, are fast and real nifty in the trickery department The Monmouth Park Regulars, who are under the management of Louis Devlne, are hard at work, endeavoring to master the Intricate parts of the leather egg game. Their lineup will be a real classy affair. In .their championship battle with the Superiors last . season they were crowded out by the small margin of two points. This year it la their ambition to trim the Superiors and the prospects for a team that wtll be superior to the Superiors Is exceedingly bright The Columbian team has been reorgan ised and now ready to book contests with all the speed stuff in this city and vicinity. Lacy will engineer affairs. The team will average 150 pounds. The following men will compose the lineup: Wester- brook,' Merrill, McGowan, Murphy Mc Cormack, Lynch, Newman, May, Flan ntgan,' Hannan', Rosslter, GilUgan, Kane, Karr and Rosso. Last Tuesday night the Sherman Ave nue Merchants foot ball tribe put on a show at the "If' theater for the purpose of securing the necessary finances to steer the gang through the season. Tt was a distinct success. Julius Rachman, who used to be one of the daring rascals attached to the school on the hill, has been assigned to the task of coaching the squad. Following Is the gang: Smith, Johnson, Tole, Watt Whalen. Parker, Yelton, Nye, Behn, Biggs, Bectt- tle. Turk, Meyers, Toung and Allwine. The Shamrocks are again organized and ready to meet all comers. Many of the South Omaha Ramblers who made such a remarkable showing last season will be given an opportunity to land positions us several of the old warriors have decided to quit. This team will be under the Management of Mike Gaughan. A gang to be known as the walnut Hill Athletics have - been mustered to gether by a Mr. Sen rum. Madam Rumor has it that they will cut a wide sweth on the local gridirons this fall. At Council Bluffs the chief team will undoubtedly be the Dodge Light Guards. They have been practicing hard for the last two weeks and are about in condi tion for the rough stuff. AH their games will be played at Athletlo park. Council Bluffs. It is a good wager that they won't lock horns with many Omaha teams unless they change their minds about gate receipts. All they want to give the Omaha teams is expenses. What the Omaha teams want is for them to deduct 25 per cent for the use of the park and incidental expenses and to divide the remainder per cent to the winner and 40 per cent to the loser; 1 At Fort Omaha the soldiers have been getting dally workouts which are Ion? and stiff. They have scrimmage practice in which all the promising men are al lowed to take part In this way the cap tain can easily get a definite idea of how the men will act under fire. They will be ready to start the ball rolling by next Sunday. The Athletics are a newly organised team composed of most all the old Ex celsior team. 8. Haster has been selected to run affairs. They will play their first regular contest at Missouri Valley, la., next Sunday. Today they will participate in a practice game. Today a bunch composed mostly of Bel monts will play under the "All Star" appellation at Missouri Valley. At Fort Omaha the Defenders and Shamrocks will participate In a practice snatch and the Columbians and Spaldlngs wtll also try out their candidates. No admission will be charged to witness these shows. First contest at 2 p. m., second at 3:30 p. m. Managers' foot hall directory for 1912: Superiors. William Byerlv. South 1471.

CORNHUSKER TEAM Head Coach at Yale UNKNOWN QUANTITY (Continued from Page One.) gainer. Purdy's special forte is smashes off tackle. The shift was also made to make room for Halllgan at fullback. Hal- Ugan was a co-star with Howard on the freshman eleven last year, the race be tween these two men for premier honors being very close. Halllgan combines weight with speed and Is a great defen sive player In fact, is the best In the backfleld. His services to Stlehm will prove Invaluable because of his de fensive ability. Captain Frank at the other half gives Stlehm a remarkably well balanced backfleld, Which combines weight with speed. The end situation, arising through the loss of both Chauner and Lofgren, Is proving a sore point in Stiehm's side. Ho does not care to put light players on the wings and has shifted Mastln and Gib son there. Mastln Is another recruit from the freshman team of last year, who looks decldedy , good. His defensive game Is much better than Gibson's, al though lie lacks the foot ball experience! The line problem Is working out nicely. Harmon and Pearson have been placed at tackles. Both are veterans and combine weight with experience. The center trio will be made up of entirely new material, although Allen, at center, has had a wide interschoiastlc experi ence. Swanson, at one guard, dis tinguished himself In the Kansas game last year as a substitute, while Meier, the other guard, played high school -foot ball for three years and spent a year on the freshman eleven. He is a strapping big fellow, strong . and aggressive, and should develop into a powerful linesman. At a glance, then, it may be seen that Nebraska is going to have the heaviest and most inexperienced team in Its his tory. Whether lack of experience will spell disaster for the Cornhuskers will only be revealed as the season advances. templetpd Schedule. ( By scheduling a game with Adrian col lege this week Stlehm kas filled out the Cornhusker schedule for 1912, which is as follows: October 6 Bellevue, at Lincoln. October 12 Kansas Aggies, at Lincoln. October lft-Minnesota, at Minneapolis. October 26 Adrian (Mich.) college, at Lincoln. November 2 Missouri, at Columbia. November ft Doane, at Lincoln. November IS Kansas, at -Lincoln. November 23 Oklahoma, at Lincoln. ' Precautions AKalnst Scalping. The precautions taken by New York, Boston, and the leagues' authorities to prevent ticket-scalping ' In' the world's series' is an evidence of the good faith of base ball men to keep the game free from taint and corruption. Nothing that we know of is entirely uncontminated, but base ball is about as much so as anything else that is human. Boston has deferred mightily to a sense of Justice in providing for the pld patrons of the game ahead of others. That is exactly right. The men who keep the game go ing through the season are certainly en titled to first consideration on dress parade occasions. If ft v "$k isW isl'-'r); L; W t ; ,M n v nf -La ' ; Arthur Howe captain and quarterback of last year's Yale eleven and head coach of this year. Howe is whipping Into shape at New Haven what Is considered to be the best Ell team since the day of Ted Coy. In practice sessions Howe has shown that 'he has lost none of the snappy skill that made him the most popular selection ifor all-Anierican quarterback last year. Three quarterbacks had been tried out with the varsity on quarterback runs and none could negotlatlate them against the sturdy defense of the scrubs. Growing impatient Howe himself took Quarterback Cornish's place to show bow it should be done. He showed tliem, too, for tie immediately tore off two lightning twenty-yard runs, then dashed around end for a touchdown. Yale does not expect to be fortunate enough to have another Howe at quarterback for years. New Foot Ball Rules Give Superior Teams What is Due Them ITHACA. N. ,Y., Sept 2l-That the changes In the foot ball rules will not only make the game more Interesting but give to the big teams a fairer chance to show their superiority Is the opinion of Dr. Albert H. Sharpe, the new foot ball coach at Cornell. Sharpe has been a foot ball official for a number of years and has bad opportunity to study the developments of the game undr the various changes In rules. He regards It as unlikely that the small teams this year will give the big ger teams so much trouble, to the extent of tying or beating them at any rate. He thinks that the game under last year's rules was not fair In that it gave the smaller teams, teams relatively much weaker, an opportunity of preventing bigger teams from scoring on them. The changes this year he thinks will put the smaller college teams back In the class In which they belong and will help the bigger teams score more than they did last year. , In fact Sharpe looks for much scoring on both sides In the big games this year, believing that the rule changes increasing the number of downs from three to four and making possible forward passes over the goal line will have that effect. This year, he thinks, the secondary defense will not dare come close to the line of scrimmage and therefore the attacking backs within the twenty-yard zone will not have two lines to pierce and more over they will have one more down In which to make the distance. For that reason Sharpe expects to see no little scoring in the big games and plenty of excitement all the way through. He Is convinced, however, the new rules will afford a much better test of real strength of the teams than was possible last year. Taking away the secondary defense means to the Cornell coaches the neces sity of taking more than usual care in building up a strong line. Dan Reed, who is charged with the work of develop ing the forwards this fall, realizes that he must find the strongest possible tackles, as it seems to be conceded that attacking teams will go hard at the tackles particularly when within close touch of the goal line. Auto for Caswldr. Denver fans have started a subscrip tion to purchase an automobile for Harry Cassldy, the Grlizly right fielder, . who has plsyed in the mile high city for six seasons and who has participated in more than 1,000 games in a Denver uniform. Fading of Negroes Gives Brighter Hopes for White Champion NEW YORK, Sept 28.-The falling off in the form displayed by Joe Jeannette recently, the probability that Sam Lang ford, who is continually postponing his return to this country, is also feeling his years; the uncertainty as to whether Sam McVey is really as (formidable as he has been painted and the retirement of Jack Johnson, all raise" the hope that it will not be so long before the heavy weight championship Is again in the pos session of the white race. Jeannette has undoubtedly gone back since he fought Langford a year ago, although he has not encountered an op ponent formidable enough to defeat him decisively. The men he has met lacked class. He has scored a large number of quick knpekouts, but most of his victims were merely "set-ups." Recently he. has struck a snag on more than one occa sion, When the chance of a bout with John son looked most bright and it behooved him to demonstrate that he deserved the match, Jeannette made a trip over to Philadelphia for a bout with one Jim Johnson. Much to his surprise Jeannette found he had all he could do to hold his own, and some went so far as to say that Johnson had the better of it A few weeks ago Jeff Clark, a lighter man, was credited with outpointing Jeannette at Pittsburgh, and recently the Hoboken negro gave a second rate performance against Tony Ross. As is often the case when a star of the ring begins to falter in his course, some ulterior motive is attributed to the fighter for his falling off. It has been whispered that Jean nette was not showing his full ability in these bouts. But just how he has ben efited by his mediocre performances It is hard to see. The chances are that he was doing Ms best. Just how good Langford and McVey are at this date it is difficult to judge. Langford was beginning to show signs of retrogression before he left Australia He has certainly not improved in the Interval. As for McVey, he is the weak est member of the big tour In any case, and is getting on In years as welL Pos sibly Jack Johnson would emerge from his retirement If offered enough money and a very easy victim. Otherwise the Chicago bonlface will stick to his cafe. MURPHY GOESBACK TO PENN Olympio Trainer Signs Five-Year Contract with Pennsylvania. TRAINS GRIDIRON WARRIORS Not Much' Confidence In Andy Smith and Mike Will Probably (iulde the Field Play and Table. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept 2S.-Mlke Murahy has slsnnrl another five-vear contract with the University of Pennsyl vania,, and has for the moment given up the project of. a training camp on the ordor of Muldoon's. Murphy was in bad shape when he disembarked attar the return trip from Sweden, and It iooked at that tlmo as If he would never train another team. He had plenty of backing In the sanltorlum nroiect it that time, and his backers had zona so far as to select a site. But the vet eran trainer's health Improved a great deal within a few weeks and he has been mending rapidly, taking things quietly on his farm, With the physical Improvement came a desire to get Into working harness once more, Mike was a ready listener when the Pennsylvania approached him for a renewal of his contract He will get action with the Quaker foot ball eleven and devote all his time to th development of the Pennsylvania teams. In the meantime such broken-down mil lionaires as might have been looking forward to a new lease of life under the watchful eye of Murphy will have to possess themselves In patience. While the Quaker foot ball team is gain under the guidance of Andrew L. Smith, Mike Murphy will be helpful as a coach as well as trainer. It Is well known that Murphy knows more than most foot ball coaches about line play and that a hint of-ao now and then from the veteran has helped out the Quakers mightily. Pennsylvsnlans are not overburdened with confidence In Andy Smith, and since be haa been handling the Quaker elevens Carl Williams has had to be sent for toward the close of the season to put on the finishing touches. Dr. Williams has been obliged to snatch a great deal of time from his business in order to take hold of the team Just before the big games, and Jt Is a question of how long he can keep It up. There are mnnv Pcnnsylvanlans, both graduate and under. graduate, who have little faith In Smith and believe that the rlsrhtman for tha place la Bill Hollenback. who nnur In charge of the Pennsylvania State College eleven. Want Bill Hollenbeek. Hollenback Is one of the most pro gresslve coaches In the country and has turned out well-balanced elevens. Tli State College la uoted for Us success In blocking kicks, and it was under Holleii back that the special formation was de vised that made the team a terror to opposing kickers. The working out of the play depends upon two strong, heavy guards, who pull the opposing center off his feet and make an opening for their own center, who has the shortest path to the kicker. In the meantime the ends go In fast and occupy the entire attpn. tion of the three backs protecting the Kicker. The piny has worked beautifully again and again. .It is. however, out of the question for a light team. CREIGHTOM ISJN FINE SHAPE Miller's Squad Perfecting Signals . and Working Trick Plays. OPENS SEASON WITH YANKTON ' Iowa Team Short of Good Line Material IOWA CUT. Ia. Bent. 28. Sn'ai How to whip a bunch of green linemen Into shape for the games with Chicago on October 19 and with Minnesota on October 26 Is the problem confronting Coaches Hawley and Eby of the Iowa team just now. Backfleld material is plentiful, but the dearth of linemen has been the one fact brought out by the first week's practice. It Is beginning to be pretty apparent what the final line-up for the opening games Is likely to be. Clemens looks like the choice for center because of his experience, although Gllllland, a heavier and more active player, Is given him a good battle. If Trlckey refuses to come out. Bowles may get his position at right guard, with Captain Hanson a fixture on the other side of the line. The tackles will go to Schulte, C. Breuckner and Gundcrson. Von Lackum and Buckley of the ends, although Penningroth Is also a veteran at the position. Curry, the lit tle quarter who was lniured last vn.- seems to be In his 1910 form again, and if ne is win nave no opposition for the position. Meloy Is also at work ni i. credited with being Curry's equal as a neia general, out lacking the speed and ability to carry the ball. Diet an Par sons have been working at the halves, but the veteran McGlnnls outweighs them both considerably and is fighting hard. Kirk seems certain of the fullback no.:. tion. Gear After Recruits. Dale Gear proposes to draft ten men from Class C and D leagues when the drafting season for Class A leagues opens. Most of these will be pitchers, with a catcher and a couple of inflelders. Chapman Looks Good. Harry Chapman has been winning (tames for Holmes nlnc ntnw h Sioux, according to Ducky. The Packer manager regards him as an excellent catcher and la not surprised that the Chicago Cubs exercised the option on him. Coach Has Large Assortment of Fast ' Men to Choose from.
