Judgments
INTEttEST In both major league races
this year, for several reasons, should
bo above par. The circumstance!
surrounding the case of Chanco help
to Infuse zest in the outcome of
both. Tho Cubs, with a new leaJnr after
following Chance for seven years, will
come In for their share of the Interest.
Chicago has ten national league pennants
to its credit In the thirty-eight years that
league has been playing, and four of
these were won under the leadership of
the man Murphy humiliated, two of them
ripening Into world's championships, ro
other city has as many National league
pennants, to Its credit. Boston ranks sec
ond with eight, New York third with si.:
and Pittsburgh fourth with four. Chi
cago's first pennant came In 1S7G, tho
first year of the league's organization,
under Al Spalding, and five came In lfJ,
1SS1. J8S2, 1885 and 1SS5 under Anson, and
not another flag waved over the National
grounds In the Windy City until Frank
Chance unfurled his first one In 1906. It
Is a matter of melancholy Interest that
old Ansdn got from Jim Hart even worse
tieatment for his great achievement than
Chanco got from Murphy. And Anson
never ruse again. The raco in the Na
tional this year Is believed to bo between
the Giants and Pirates chiefly. What
Tinker may do with Cincinnati Is a prob
lem. Tho Cubs, undoubtedly, will have a
Btrong lineup, but how smoothly they
will work under new managerial reins .s
n question. Murphy, of course, has Roger
Brcsnahan to fall back upon when Evens
Is out of the game.
BUSY ON LOCAL DIAMONDS
Teams Are Brushing up When the
Weather Does Not Interfere.
EIGHTEEN HUNDRED PLAYERS
Total Number of Nonprofessional
Hull Player In Thin I.ocnllty
AKirreirnlcn Clone to 1,800
In Hound Numbers.
The number of players who have gone
this winter from Class A leagues to the
Pacific coast .by way, of the draft route
brings out the utter "absurdity of a law
that permits a leagU9 like the Pacific
coast organization to enjoy such superior
powers over a leaguo like the Western.
It Is unjust,, beside being absurd and tho
law should be abrogated, or tho distinc
tion In rank and caliber of the two
leagues be mode actual as well as
nominal. The fact is, whatever advan
tage there Is In a comparison between
these two organizations is so slight as
to afford no ground for comment. Tho
Western shows up as strong, if not
stronger than the coast at times. But
this was the prlco of peace, which tho
big 'uns .tossed to the recalcitrant Ameri
can association, or to be more precise,
f to White Wings Tebeau, who Is the
American association.
By a most remarkable coincidence three
old-time St. Louis BrownB catchers of
tho old four-time winner days, have died
In tho last few weeks. They are Jack
Boyle, Tom Dolan and Mike Drlssell.
I.Ike maglo those old names strike the
veteran fans, for they clung to men most
famous In their day. And what is even
moro coincidental In these deaths Is that
old Chris Von Der Ahe. owner of
that famous team, himself lies upon what
is admitted to be his deathbed. Another
of tho old Browns' great catchers the
greatest, In fact Dr. Albert J. Bushong,
pussed away not so very long ago. To
Judge from the mortality statistics of the
Browns of the 'SOs one would be Justified
In concluding that ball players are not
long lived. Aside from the five mentioned,
both Foiitz ,ind Caruthers, the two star
pltcherc of their day there, are gone; so
Is Curtis Welch,- "the king of fielders,"
and supposedly, Hank Robinson, second
baseman.
We have been told already that Pa
Ilcurko would have a poor team for 1913.
Well, it is a little early for our predic
tions. We generally "wait for the grass
to turn green, at least, before making
up our minds as to tie finish. We don't
mind saying this, however, that with the
best of last year's team as a nucleus to
start with. It seems a llttlo strange to
us why Rourko shquld not have a fairly
good tram this yir. We think an) one
will admit the acceptability of Johnson,
Kane. Schlpke, Scanlon Justice, Nlehpff,
Coyle. Thornason and a few others with
us last year. Everyone of these men
Is the class of the league. It looks as
If, with such a starter, It should be
raster to land a good club than a poor
one. Yet, of course, we don't know. Our
theory may be all wrong, but wo shall
not abandon It until the season opens,
anyway.
nY prank auioiarv.
As the beginning of the spring draws
near base ball Interest increase's among
the amateurs that cavort on uur local
sand lots. Already the boys arc taking
advantage of every day tinged with
spring. Before the robins begin to sin;
tho majority of the local amateurs will,
at least be playing catch with their nelgli
bors from approximately five and a half
strikes to six and a half bells every even
ing, climatic conditions excepted.
It Is a safe prediction that we will
have 100 teams In Omaha this season,
twenty-five In Council Bluffs, fifteen In
South Omaha, three In Benson, three In
Florence and a pair In Dundee. In Coun
cil Bluffs, South Omnha and suburbs
there will t)e approximately 1G0 teams.
Figuring from the standpoint that each
team carries twelve men, wo have 1,S10
humans in this neck of the woods that
employ base ball as their chief recreation.
Even amateur base ball la a great help
to the commercial world. These 1,800
base ball fiiayers havo to bo equipped
with the necessary' paraphernalia at the
minimum cost of 17.50 or somewhere be
tween or at the maximum cost, which (s
$24.50. Aside from this base balls nn-J
bats are necessary articles. Figure it
most any way you want to and you will
find that the amateur's aforementioned
spend over $30,000 a season. So you can'
plainly see, although possibly you never
realized It before, that nmateur base
ball is a very valuable pecuniary asset
to some of our Omaha merchants.

'Phone Basket Ball
Tossers Will Play
Wesleyan Squad
Thp local 'basket ball season will vir
tually be brought to a close next Friday
evening w(th a game between the Ne
braska Telephone company's-five -and the
quintet representing Wcoleyan university
of University Place. The game was
originally scheduled between tho Uni
versity of Omaha and Wesleyan, but
owing to the fact that the university five
has finished Its season the, telephone
team has taken the game.
The contest promises to be perhaps the
best that has been played in Omaha this
season, for both teamB are strong on
team work and have some of the best In
dividual players In the state. For two
seasons Wesleyan has been victorious
over every college and university squad In
Nebraska savo the Cornhusker team, and
has twice this season given them scares
and In one game camo within a few
points of taking the game. Recently it
beat Captain Sheeks and his tossers from
the University of South Dakota.
The phone boys, on the other hand,
while not having tho wide reputation that
their opponents have, constitute one of
the best teams in Nebraska, The team Is
a member of a Young Men's Christian as
sociation league and is hoping to get the
preache're' number.
At present the local team is leading In
the Commercial league and will. In all
piobablllty, win first honors. On the
team are several men who havo had
erperlence on college and high school
teams, Hutchison, who two years ago
was captain of tho team at Nebraska,
Is playing a forward' position, the other
forward position being filled by Captain
Nolan, who three years ago, when Genoa
won the high school championship of
Nebraska, was the mainstay of the team.
The other members of the team are all
fast players and accurate goal tossers.
The gnme will be played nt the Uni
versity of Omaha gymnasium. Twenty
fourth and Pratt. Warren Ritchie will
referee.
Connie a Wlie )vl.
Many base ball men think that Connie
Mack, the wise old owl of the Ath
letics, hit the nail on tho head, when he
replied to a question whether Hal Chase
could Dlay second base for the Yankees.
Connie said that Hal would be a big
improvement over all the second Backers
the New York club had and that It

Wichita Base Ball

Cheyenne Indian
M 1CHITA, Kan., March 1. Tho Wichita
Base Ball club has landed an Indian
pitcher. The now man is Herbert AVhlte
shield, a Cheyenne of Cantonment, Okl.,
nnd hn looks Ilka a winner. He Is a,
graduate of Carlisle and a friend ot
James Thorpe, tho famous athletn who
lias signed with the New York Giants.
Whlteshleid Is six feet tall and is re
markably fast for a big man. The
Wichita management has been trying to
land him for a year, He won nine shut
out games last season In seml-Protesslonal
base ball. He has everything a pitcher
needs to become a, big leaguer. His
habits are of the boat and ho works better
v-hen the break is going against iflm.
He Is a good hitter and he fields his
position like a flash. Fans who saw him
work last season say that he fields llko
Dick Speer, the former Wichita southpaw.
Whlteshleid Is but 21 years old. He made
a great strike-out record In Oklahoma,
lust BQiuon, winning sixteen to eighteen
men In every game.
This will giye Manager Hughes a tough
Job sorting out the pitching staff, as

HOW K0LEHMAINEN GOES AT IT
From Hurly Mornlim I'ntll I.nte n

livery Musele t Re
spond Freely. '
N WW YORK, March l.-Lots of pcoplp
think It Is a cinch to be a ohiimplaii ath
lete. Tho average citizen who takes In
iui nthlrtlo meet now und then has niT
Idea that nil that a yuilng man like
Hannes Kotuhmnluen does to win
world's Imiri'lH Is tn go out nnd take -t
practlco i-un now and then. All that tlm
average citizen sees of the development
In a runner's condition In the racing thut
ho cnguges In. "Another rnco will put
him right" Is an expression often heir. I
nt athletic gatherings, but .!o bralntiry
mnn ddes nqt realize thnt thero nre hours
o( hard work and dotnns of little things
to bo done In preparation boforo "another
race" comes.
Take Kolehmalnen, for Instance. Thero
never was a youth moro careful of his
condition than this lad from Finland, and
a study ot his methods will Invariably
bring out tho comment: ,"!( no wonucr
he's a world's champion."
How Kolehmnlneti Live.
Hannes Kolehmalnen, his brother.
Willie, tho world's professional dlsunci
chnmplon, and his attendant IIVo In the
Bay Ridge section of Brooklyn. Tho trio
are as happy as nowly-marrled folks in
their little aulto of rooms. They cook
their owji meals, preparing every morsel
that they tuko with us much care as
does Oscar of Wnldnrf-Astorla fame.
Hannes Kolehmalnen eats no meat. He
specializes on fish anil oatmeal, with
plenty of vegetables bb rt "filler." The
greatest amutaiir runner In the world
eliminated meat from his diet more than
a yeur ago and declares that slnco he
took this step ho has been a better man
In ovcry respect.
Six o'clock In the morning Is the hour
that starts Kolehmalnen to training. Ho
hops out of bed nnd nfter taking half a
dozen long breaths gets Into his clothes
for a bit of a walk. Hsnnes tries to
walk two hours before breakfast every
morning. Sometimes his work Interferes,
but It is safe to nssert that he gets twj
hours' leg oxerolso before breakfast three
days out of four. Wlien he returns from
the walk Kolehmalnen gets a light rub,
after which he puts away a breakfast
that would kill an ordinary apartment
dweller.
Works Tirelessly.
The Kolehmalnens do all their practice
running at the same tlmo of day, namely,
at 3 o'clock In tho afternoon. Hannes
has his Job nrranged so that ho can get
away at that time overy day, and when
training never' misses a day, no matter
what the, weather may be, Once the
Kolehmalnens offered to, t help a local
runner in, his development by running
with him. "What night will I com
out?" asked the local chain. "We run
at 8 o'clock every aftennoon," bald
Willie Kolehmalnen. "Hannes has al
ways trained at this time, of day, and ho
wit: not change for anything." The local
boy had to pass up the opportunity be
cause he worked In an office and could
not get away In the afternoons.
The care of the muscles Is another
thing about which Hannes Kolehmalnen
Is more thnn particular. Ifo never allows
his muscles to get chilled. Watch tho
Finnish wonder preparing for a two-mile
race. He will make as much fuss over
hU big sinews as doeH tho ordinary
Marathoner who expects to do over
twenty-five miles. Nor will Hannes al
low hts muscles to get chilled when he
has no race tn the Immediate, future. On
very cold days Kolehmalnen wears
women's stockings that reach well up
his thigh to Insure keeping the cold out
of tho great muscles that have mado htm
the most famous athlete In the world.
If the average athletic enthu!ast wen
to spend a day with Hsnnes Koleh
malnen, ,get tip with him at a. m., walk
two hours with him before breakfast ani
then go through the rest of the day with
the Finlander, doing something it every
turn to better his condition, Hannes'
wonderful ability to glide away from the
other dlstoncers and smash world's
records would be bitter understood.
