CONOALTON'S passing from Omaha
was a matter of regret to many,
both fans and player. Bunk vti
well liked by all. Many a gam
ho haa put on Ice with his big
stick, and, while he was slow, he was
heady and faithful. Still, times are hard
and Pa Is Justified In cutting expenses,
we presume. Next year, let ua hope, we
shall have a fast man m right, who can
hit as well and run bases. Of coursV, no
one now can tell what 1915 may bring.
It can't bring anything much worse for
us, however. We hope It may bring a
decided .Improvement. In the event the
league and circuit reimln as now. Pa
Rourke doubtless will find Is necessary
to do a lot' of reorganizing. That would
be necessary in any event. It we were
going to hazard a guess as to what play,
era he would keep we would say
Thomason and Bell in the outfield,
Sehllebner, Krug and Thomas If he can
get hlra from Cleveland, to which club
ha has belonged all year In the Infield;
Tipple of the pitchers, Seabaugh and
probably Krueger. catchers. And were
we runnnlng the team Instead of just
writing about It, we would put Krug
bark in the outer field, where he belongs
and get a key man for the keystone Job.
and another as good as Joe Ward for
third. - Then with a pitching staff Omaha
would be ready to try Issues with the
best of them.
t
Our correspondent from Denver, refer
ring to the second Omaha-Denver game
there, alluded In very delicate, terms to
"ground roles," an expression once, cur
rent In the base ball vernacular of the
Western league, oh, many, many rears
go. We can Jutst recall "them good old
times," when such a term had a real
meaning In Omaha. Ah, we've Just turned
to our archives, where are stored the
tokens and tributes of the "dear, dead
past," when surging throngs of fans over
flowed these beatulful grounds of ours,
to take another longing look at a photo
our staff man took back In the old days.
It shows the stands filled and the masses
banked all around the field, crowding the
base lines. And It was Just a regular
scheduled game. Such a sight as that
once more would be worth a good deal,
for in the meantime men once habitues
of the park have entirely ceased to go
near it. We find ourselves wondering if
this Denver reporter was only trying to
kid us. or If he really meant It Let us
hope It was true.
A few days ago Pa Rourke was asked
what, If any, players "farmed out," he
had recalled for 1916, and he said none.
From the official lists published by Secre
tary Farrell of the National association
we observe, however, that he has re
served thes" young men: Everdon, Payne,
Wallace. Stevens, Bell and Chase. Bell
and Payne are now with the team; Bell
is making good and Payne W doing some
better, .than on his first sojourn. We take
it. however, that Pa has no notion of
bringing Chase, Wallace or Stevens back
for work in Omaha.
I'mp. Sycklea continues to ' mow 'em
down when they get in his way. And at
that, we are with him on general prin
ciples. He la the first approach to a real
umpire this league has had in a long
time, though some of the others have
don their best and are not to be con
demned. We have, however, had mra
murky material. But Colonel Sycklea is
the goods, and whatever league we may
find ourselves in next season, we bope
Pan will be there with us.
Our benevolent Omaha ball team Is
around the circuit on its laBt tour of the
season and we hope it will not devote its
time to fattening up individual batting
averages and club standings. We ought
to go out of the charity business and get
down to a better batAs of enjoying some
or the fruits of success ourselves.
Omaha Is responsible for Topeka's es
cape from the cellar. Omaha h,as lost
eight of the last nine games played wlKi
that bunch of booba. Can you Imagine It?
Amid the wars and rumors of war we
still hear the faint whisper of a reconcilia
tion between the forces of organized and
outlaw base ball. It will come in time.
Too bad. Pitcher Eanders is not availa
ble for regular service, for be is 88 per

Three Giants put out of one game for

Several of Sandlot Mnn Will Meet

Honors la Behalf of Ben.
son's Championship.
By FHA.K QIIGLKY.
A fellow who wishes his name with
held from publication recently met with
disappointment in trying to rib up . a
tournament among the class A teams,
because he forgot to consider some of the
vital questions pertinent to such an under
taking. In the first place he overlooked
half of the teams and In the second the
question of finances did not enter his
mind.
If a couple of good parks located In
Omaha were built a tournament consist
ing of the best teams In Omaha would be
a grand success. Or If some of the fans
with too much kale would sift out a few
rocks for prizes It could be pulled off with
all the pomp and splendor necessary for
such an occasion. Taking into considera
tion, however, all the requirements essen
tial for a base ball tournament the writer
Is unable to conceive how a tournament
could be arranged so that It would be sat
isfactory to all concerned.
To Decide Championship.
The -championship of the Booster league
will be fought out by the Krebb Trans
fers and the Auto Row at Chris Lyck
park this afternoon. After they have fin

to the class B championship of the city.
The team winning this game will play
the St. Paul champion at Chris Lyck
park next Sunday and the following
Sunday will Journey to St. Paul and play
tho Saints. The Omaha Amateur associa

$150 and It Is optional with them to take
N) per cent 1 of the gate - receipts. The
same conditions will exist when thai
Omahans go to St. Paul.

Real work will begin this week on
Crelghton flold in preparation for the
big games of the seaaon by Coaches Mil

tice began last Tuesday, but the work
has been light and the candidates few.
With the first game of the year scheduled
for September 'A with Bcllevue, only two
weeks distant, the Crelghton Coaches state
their determination of putting the play

light signal practice and punting has
been Indulged In.

It begins to look like practically a new
team will represent the local school this
year. , Pitts Is the only one of t.ie last
year's team In a suit. A number of the
other veterans have announced their In
tention of returning. Among them are
Shannon, tackle; Wsfworth, halfback;
Coady, halfback; KamanPkl, center. These
men are expected to make up the nucleus
of the team.
Some of the Others.
Other men counted upon for positions,
but who will not play, are Tamisea,
Stapleton, Casey, Brennan, Black and
McCarty. Brennan is captaln-clcct of
the squad, but it Is doubtful whether he
will return and play till end. Tamisea.
a star kicker of two years ago, turned
out In a suit early in the week, but stales
that practice hours Interfere with busi

turned to school, but (inserts that he has

full last year, has the same excuse. Hla' k
will not return to school, while McCar

or not these men will be able t res'st
the call when the whistle sounds. Is doubt

Hack to Paid.
By JAM ES K. LAWRENCE.
LINCOLN, Pept. 12.-(Speclal.)-The
roseate prospects of the Cornhusker foot
ball squad received somewhut of a rude
setback yesterday when Coach Jumbo
Stiehm received a letter from Chamber
lain, star fullback of the freshmen eleven
last year, and who was expected to be
one of the most brilliant gridiron per
formers Nebraska ever had. aaylng there
waa some doubt about him returning to
school.
Chamlwrlaln up until recently had as
sured Htlehm he would be back without
fall and the letter was very much In the
nature of an unpleasant surprise.
The loss of Chamberlain will be a most
serious blow to Nebraska. He, without
question, was the greatest gridiron per
former thd Cornhuskera hava had In re
cent years. It was reported at odd tlmea
that Chamberlain had been asked to go
to Valo and other eastern achols, but the
big, husky fullback always expressed his
preference for Nebraska and said he waa
quite content to play aa a Cornhuskr.
Possibly these same eastern schools may
have, been bussing around him again, but
Stiehm haa Implicit faith and believes his
star will return when the time comes.

Blue Spring.

Tha assistant coachahlp Job. made va

Among the most notable applicants are
Hoeffel, who played three years on the
University of Wisconsin and was an all

prominence; l'attlson, an old Pennsyl

men. Dewey Harman, who had rharge
of tre frevhman squad last year, will bo

had a letter from Jim Harvey, an old Ne
braska end, yesterday, saying he would

two weeks before the big game.

and two freshmen, were in Lincoln yes
