ROURKES FAtt fO SCORE
Unable to Cojie' with Strenuous Play
of Wichita.
r - , -'
EIGHT RUNS FOR. KANSAS;' TEAM
Vlnllnn Find Grovrr Hnr -to lilt
and Ste.vrns I Unable In 8np
Onslaimht for Mort Tlmn
Short Period.
The Rourkes fell n victim to Wichita
a second time Tuesday, '5 to 0, and wilt
now be unable to leave for the twenty
same road trip with an even .600 per
centage even though they win today
The faltering Rourkes never had a look
In against the rejuvenated WicheS. The
gents from Kansss hopped on Bert
Grover of no-hlt game, arid did likewise
when George 8teve'niC' newcomer, es
sayed to take up the burden In the box.
It Doesn't Take Much to Make Mutt Sore . . . Drawn for The Bee by "Bud" Fisher
In the meantime "JlmmT" Durham had
all kinds of fun tearing the Rourko hit
ters. In every -but one Inning, the sixth, -Durham
was In bad. hut Ihla teemed to de
light that person -for he never let an
Omaha uniform brush hfi home plate.
Time and again Omaha runners found
thtlr way clear on the bases, "only to be
stranded when their colleagues failed to
deliver the knockout punch. Even with
three on and one out Ward and Conga!
ton. the two heaviest hitters on the
Omaha squad, fell dowrfmlserably.
Wlchltn Bruin Early.
The Wlchea started on drover at the
start A walk and two hits counted one
in the second and two hits and a sacri
fice and a calamity counted two In the
fourth. The calamity ,wa s by Mr. Grover
himself. Bosnolonl scored Henry from
second on a double and Kmc threw the
ball to Grover who.-attehipted to heave
out Boeaolonl going (o second. The
throw was a beaut The only thing that
prevented Its Journeying '.oyer the right
field fence, where It might renew ac
quaintanceship with the pills knocked
over by Jim Kane some time ago, was
that Drover's arm ,1a a little weak.
Graver's Intentions were good but his
performance fcl) ahprt. At that Bert
probably made na Jong a throw as Je
Jcune when he broke the record.
A couple of drives and a run In the
subsequent Inning - put the blink on
Grover. Ha hied himself to the, club
houso and Stevens was. called to the res
cue. Steve finished; the Inning like a
little man and did veryYilcely for two
more Innings when' He became disgusted.
3Io was stranded on thlrd'bas'e after be
Ins safe on nn error and with two com
rades on the other sspk Ward and Con
gallon fluked as previously related. .Be
ing on third under si jch, circumstances la
enough to peeve any .pitcher and Stevens
can not be blamed If -h let up a lbt In
his twirling.
A base op balls and a couple of hits
let In a run In the eighth. Stevens then
made two of the Wtchea go out by Krug
dropped an easy fly Into left field. Addi
tionally peeved Stevens tossed one up to
Nicholson, who cleaned Up the bar,s, but
was caught himself' going, to socond.
The same, teams will play today After
which the Rourkes will leave for Sioux
City for the -Initial series on the long1
trip to the west. Score: . ,

"Lead me to it" say men in all walks of life,

MLead me to it" you'll say just as quick as
youinvest in a tidy red tin and find out first

cigarette tobacco !
ringe Albert
' the national joy smoke
brought thousands and thousands of old
jimmy pipes out of the garrets. It has revo
lutionized pipe and cigarette smoking !
That's because Prince Albert is made by a patented
process that cuts out the "grouch" and just lets in
the sunshine ! Never in your life have you hit such
flavor and fragrance and freshness!
Play P. A. in a jimmy pipe or roll up the corkingest
makin's cigarette you ever put fire to. It's all one
and the same thing just good for what ails your

mighty fresh, it just stays put and doesn't blow
