In a loose and uninteresting gome,
Omaha won the second contest of the se
ries with St. Joseph yesterday by a score
of & to 5.
The same was featured by errors and
poor pitching. St. Joseph rung up seven
errors before the game was over and
Omaha had two. Each team used two
hurlers, none of whom did any remarka
ble work. The visiting twlrlers handed
out seven walks and the Rourke filnsera
four.
The only redeeming feature of the game
was the showers. There were about as
many showers during the afternbn as
there -were hits, and for the entire two
hours and twenty minutes of playing
there was about two hours of rain. At
no time, however, did the rain come down
so har dthat it was necessary to postpone
Dlay.
New Pitcher Starts Well.
O'Byrne started in to work for Omaha
in A got-by the first two .Innings In first
class shape, but In the third he walked
the first two men up. Then on error
gave the visitors a run and O'Byrne
benned Westerzll. filling the bags. Here
"X was that O'Byrne was relieved In favor
of Robinson, who retired the side, allow
lng but one run. Robinson finished the
tme.
Bell, former White Sox twlrier and late
f the Winona club of the Minnesota'
Wisconsin league, began for the Josies,
but was left on the bench when the
Rourkes came to bat in the sixth inning.
Buscher was next and finished the game,
although the Rourkes touched him up al
most at will.
Omaha Starts Scorluar.
Omaha opened the game with one run.
Thomason was safe on Mclnkes error
and Congalton walked. An error by
Watson allowed Tomle to register.
Grubb opened, the second with a sin-
tie to center, Hchlpke was safe on Wes
lerztl's error and Grubb ucored. Schlpke
scored' on Bell's error or O1 Byrne's
grounder. Coyle "beat out . bunt and
O'Byrne scored on Thomason's single.
Dawson and Kelly walked In the vis
itors' (lard. Z'wll'Jng was safe on Kane s
error and Dawson scored. Westerzll was
hit with a pitched ball, lining the bases.

Mm.
Thomason was safe for Omaha In the
fourth when he forced Coyle at second,
ill Bcored on Congalton's double. Grubb
walked in the fifth and Schlpke was safe
an Watson's error. A passed ball ad
ranced both and they ucored on Justice's
Untie to left.

Ewald O. Btlohm for tho Initial practice
of the Cornhuskera foot hall squad. By
that time It Is expected that nearly all
of the candidates for the varsity will be
In Lincoln, with the possible exception
Of a few stragglers.
The rules of the Missouri Valley con
ference prohibit the practice season open
ing before the first of the registration
for the school term. Registration day
Is September 16, and Btlehm will waste
no time, but get down to work on the
day following.
Additional help for Btlohm in whipping
together a practically new team Is a
problem which is worrying the author
Hies Just now. Dewey Harmon, the giant
tackle of last season, will, beyond a
doubt, be In town next fall, and has con
sented .to aid Stlehm In the Lincoln work.
"Jack" Temple of Lexington, a former
star and captain of the 1911 Cornhuskers,
has promised to spend the entire weok
preceding the Minnesota, game in. aiding
Stlehm, Both of these, players will be
of material assistance In aiding In .the
coaching, but cannot furnish the needed
experience which comes with older east
ern players.
White Will Assist Stlehm.
Sanford White, the famous Princeton
end.who Is crodlted with defeating both
Harvard and Yale by his spectacular
playing, Is also a reorult for the coach
lng ranks. 'White now lives in Lincoln
where he has been assigned by the Inter
national Harvester company, and while
his business will not permit him to give
as much attention to football as he
would like, he hopes to aid Btlehm, es
pecially on the eve of the Minnesota
game,
White will not accept any pay for his
services, lie is one of Princeton's great
est players and should be a material
factor In shaping the fortunes of the
Cornhuskers,
. Btlehm reports that Omaha and Lin
coln people are apt to be left out In
the cold when It comes to seats for the
Minnesota game. Already large sections
of the best seats have been engrged and
while Reed Is anxious to save a large
block for the Omaha and Lincoln del
gallons, he reports that he will not be
able to hold them much longer. From
the advance sale It appears that the
capacity of the field will be sold out
some days before the day of the game.
