Clan Gordon Ixague-Thursday: Beg-
ulur team matches .
The last week was a lively one for tne
bowlers. In most of tho big leagues the
leaders were taken down to defont by
tAmii of lower standing. Tho scores
were somewhat higher than during pro
vloiis weeks of the seuson.
In tho Omuha leaguo K. Sclple broko
the loaguo record for Individual total by
rolling 714. The Old Hlylo Lagors In tho
same league also piled up- a bis team
game, with Ux. The Corcy-McKewlcs,
Met and Chris Lycks woro high on the
list with largo team totals, and gome, far
over tho 1.090 mark, Tho Booster Icaguors
toppled the pins for high scores. In
this league nlno COO totals woro registered
by the rollers. The Jcttor's Old Age
of the Commercial leaguo was again on
deck with big games and team totals.
The big drop camo Thursday night
whea the Luxua, leaders of the Omaha
league, dropped all three games to their
closest rival, the Mets team. Tho Clara
Belles, who load the Booster league, also
were pulled down a trifle by their closest
competitor, the Chris Lyck team.
In the Maglo City leaguo the Martin's
Tiger met defeat, but still have a big
lead. Tho Stors Triumphs In the Gale
City league were stopped by the tnll-end
Leary Engravers, and now only have a
one-game lead for t-rt place. The Brode
gaard Crowns fared better In the Com
mercial league, and won two games In
their series, and still lead the league.
Tho Pete Loch Juniors are leading In
the Metropolitan league with the Drox
da's Keno team right at their heels. The
Brownlng-KIng team heads the Knights
of Columbus crowd. The Potartne Auto
OH team has the largest lead of all, with
an eleven-game gap between first and
second places. Tbo Fairmont Creamery,
Lithographers. Omaha Gas. Sunderland
Bros., Clan Gordon and Paxton & Gal
lagher leagues are having closo and ex
citing races.
Another noticeable feature of the last
week Is the large number of organized
teams, not Identified with the regular
leagues, that have sprang Into existence
and are rolling match games with each
other. The Sunderland Bros.' leaguo have
placed an all-star team In the field to
me"et all comers. The Merchants Na
tlonal bank, Orchard & Wllholm, Belden
Breck, Drexel Shoe company and tho
Standard Oil All-Stars are other second-
rate teams who are rolling regular match
fames.
City Tourney Iinprobnlilr.
Since the Booster league has an
nounced the postponement of its tour
nament, there is considerable doubt
whether be annual city bowling tourna
ment will be held. Lack of organisation
among the leagues, coupled with the fact
that the tournament which begins next
Sunday will be so late in the season,
appear to Indicate that the city touma
roent is Improbable.
A numbr of the city's best rollers will
b out of the city for a week at the
International st Minneapolis, This tour
Tiamest. following so closely upon the
beets pf the meet here, will likely give
tho bowlers enough tourney experience
to lost until the season closes.
Tho officials of the Booster leaguo In
sist, howovor, that It Is not their Inten
tion to put a damper on arrangements
for the city tournament Several of them
have said they are anxious to see It held
tho same as usual. Their reason for pro
moting a league tournament something
new for Omahiv-was merely to keep In
terest In tho gamo ollvo, they say. In
tho meanwhile they are working to mako
the league meet a' success.
Entries for the tournament must be In
by Wednesday. The tournament will
start at 2 p. m. next Sunday and will
continue during the week. There will he
matches every" night Tho five-man
teams will roll first, then (ho doubles
teams and the singles. Any flvo men
may bowl as a team providing no more
than threo are In another team. Tho first
gamo In the five-man team events witl
bo tho record from which the all-events
prizo will bo awarded.
Prizes nro to bo divided according to
the usual tournament rule, The first
place team will get 40 per cent, tho sec
ond 30, tho third 15, the fourth 10 and the
fifth will get S per cent of tho pot money.
A number of local teams have entered
and moro nro expected to enter this week.
An effort Is being made to get the good
players from Bonson to play at the tour
nament. Tho entries to date are:

There Is a possibility that the Old Style

How to flnanco tho various teams la be
ing considered even at this early date,
Should Omuha send a big representa

ment will come here next, Sioux City,
which received the support of the locals
at St. Louis, will undoubtedly reclpro
cate, as will tho teams from several other
Important cities.

IlqivlliiK Notes.
Tho Brodccanrd Crowns havo entered
tho Booster league tournament with a
strong lineup.
Sanders Is back In the Gato City lineup
and Is coimr eood. Ho woars a Storz
Triumph shirt
Eugene W. Marr broke Into the eamo
last Monday night, but his execution was
somewhat poor
The Drozda's Kenos are hot on tho
heels of tho Pete Loch, jr., team in tho
Metropolitan league.
Noriraard's 269 score still stands hlch
for the Gate City diamonds donated by
tho Rces Jowolry company.
Tho wholo Commercial league llnbun Is
fighting tho Brodegaard Crowns, but still
they hang onto llrst place.
Although they are havlm? a lot of
troublo, tho Omaha Icitguo teams are
slowly catching up their postponed
games.
Count Leo says that his scores nro low
on account of the number of splits he
roccivcs. xi is his tnuirui tnat sd its. not
the pins.
Nothing has been heard on either side
about that proposed match between the
Shields-Terrell team and the Stanley
Brown pair.
The threatened outlaw nriranlzntlnn In
the Standard Oil league did not live very
lonn. iiicr caning tno ron it was round
that only one member responded.
Plympton, tho star lend off man for
tho El Paxos and speedy slab urtlst of
mo Jiearnoy mute league team, says that
the Fcdenus have inado him no offers.
Wiley has entered the singles In the
Booster lea true. Ho won thin wint In
the city tournament two years ago, when
it was roiieu unaer tne oia handicap plan.
The Grand Island bowlers nro planning
a stato tournament, but declare all
umnna Dowicrs uarrea. we can see no
reason for this. They broke oven with
mo uiura iscncs ana storz Triumnhs
Why not havo a tournament conducted
by the Sunderland Bros., Fairmont
Creamery. Omaha Gas. IJthotrranhom.
Standard OH, ' Paxton & Gallagher nnd
L.-iun uoruon leaguer mcse leagues aro
evenly matched and .could have a good
tournament.
uatlon Is rather unlquo. Tho undergrade
uato and faculty body of Kansas and
Missouri are said to be actively opposing
tho abolishment of the rule and it Is as
serted that tho representatives of these
two schools rift tho governing board will
vigorously oppose He rcclelon. The Ne
braska attitude is declared to be some
what similar to that of Kansas and Missouri.
Quito a portion of the alumni want the
rule wiped oft the slate so a game can
be staged In Omaha next fall, but It Is
understood that tho Nebraska athletic
board and the faculty will oppoao any
change and the Nebraska representative
will join with Kansas and Missouri in
preventing tho revocation of the rule. The
matter of the revocation of the rule is
the only athletic problem which will re
celvo consideration at tho hands of the
governing council, atlhaugh It Is possi
ble matters relating to the color line In
collegiate sports may como up In tho
general discussion. Chancellor Avery,
who Is the Nebraska representative In tho
governing board, has received word from
all of the Missouri valley schools, Indi
cating that all of them would be repre
sented at tho conference. Dr. Hall, the
president of the board, will sprak Mon
day nooif, at the Commercial club lunch
eon, and other entertainments have been
provided for tho visitors.

LINCOLN, Jnn. 17.-(Special Telegram.)
Tho Nebraska Collegiate association,
comprising tho secondary schools of tho
state, this evening rescinded the summer
base ball rule prohibiting athletes, to-play t
summer base ball. The .rule was passed
two years ago and Immediately met
opposition.
The committee of representatives
thought its enforcement Impracticable.
Tho question on Interpreting tho "A. B.''
rule rclatlvo to a player's eligibility was
construed to mean tho completion of a
four years' college course. Where ath
letes secure an "A. B." degree from col
leges of less than four years' require
ments It will not render them Ineligible.
Tho basket ball and base ball schedules
wero arranged and the annual conference
track meet will be held In University
l'laco on May 19.
Tho election of officers resulted In the
re-election of Prof. Mann of Cotner as
president. Prof. Blsset of Kearney as
vice president and Prof. Mercer of York
as secretary-treasurer. ,,
