BOSTON'S feat in running from the
bottom to the top and winning
the National league pennant Is
a ffreat one, but not unpre
cedented In major league listory.
In fact, Boston must yet win the world's
series to match the marvelous achieve
ments of the White Sox In 1906, when they
came from the rear In the American
league and won both the pennant nnd
world's championship. Their feat was
the more amazing because of the team's
weakness at the hat and decided Inferior
ity generally as compared with the
mighty Cubs, whom it beat for yie world's
flag. Another thing, the American league
In 1806 was , exceptionally well-balanced,
the race In doubt to the end. As late as
August 2, Chicago seemed entirely out
f it, then started In on Its nineteen
traight wins, largely because of the
wununnui pucning 01 r.a vvaisn, r rang
Owen and Doo White. Walsh pitched
seven of these nineteen games. Reach's
historian says of the Oomiskey team that
year: "In respect of batting strength It
was outclassed by all the remaining
teams" but it was "strong in fielding,
fast and clever on the bases, adept at
inside work, exceptionally fortified be
hind the bat (lillly Sullivan) and with a
powerful pitching staff." It clearly con
cedes that the Six won the pennant "not
because it was the strongest team, but
by reason of gameness, speed and power
ful pitching." And cannot the same thing
almost be said of Boston this year,
though, of course, Boston Is not so weak
at the "bat? Bets are going and predic
tions flying thick and fast as to the
winner of tho world's battle. Ordinarily,
we should guess the odds In favor of the
Athletics, the oldest, better-seasoned, bet
ter balances team, but so anyone without
prejudice would have guessed did guess
in favor of the Cubs in 1906, yet the
Sox won. We shell never forget the
speech In the Sox part of Charles'
Murphy at the! end of that last fateful
game between the Sox and Cubs, in which
he said, and very truthfully: "The team
that played the best ball won' It
would have been far from truth to say
the best team won.
Coming upon the heels of the Federals'
request for participation in the world's
series, the announcement by President
Oilmore of his league's readiness to ne
gotiate for peace with the American and
National and bis belief that "there is
not enough room for three major
leagues," assumes large significance.
First, the Federals sire rather quick in
discovering, it seems to us, that there la
not room for three majors. Has this
year's experience proved that? It has
not been a normal year, at all. Possibly
Oilmore is right he ought to knowe but
it has seemed to many that the volume
of base ball patronage and interest, as
it appeared before 1914, justified three
such leagues. One thing has been made
plain this year, however, and that is that
base ball cannot long support two majors
unless it very decidedly changes some of
its tactics. But as to this suit for peace,
why not grant It? The notable thing Is
that Ban Johnson Is the chief obstacle
to It. If any of the big moguls could
afford to be charitable at tills point, it
is this same Ban Johnson, head of the
league that came into existence as un
outlaw precisely as Gllmore's league had
done. And a good many things went on
under Johnson and his associates that
were as "reprehensible" in the eyes of
organized base ball as ever were done or
condoned by the Federals. The base ball
world has not forgotten how a certain
big fellow, supposed to be running one
Chicago team, used his position and in
fluence to raid it for the benefit of the
new-born outlaw. All over, there was
the same seducing of players into break
ing agreements and contracts. In faU,
Oilmore and his associates have not
done one whit worse in these respec1
than Ban Johnson and his allies did. b-
we say. Ran Johnson is the last man to
stand In the. way of such negotiations as
Oilmore suggests.
COLUMBIANS TO START YEAR
Even wise men sometimes go wrong.
You recall, do you not that It was Hen--duggsy
McGraw who proclaimed at the
outset of 1914 that if New York beat Cin
cinnati It would win the pennant? Well,
it beat 'cm. At this writing the Giants
are second in the race, Cincinnati last
Anyone will admit though, that the dope
did make the Pretzels look wUer than
tallenders. Then the team . at Johnny
Kvers had picked as the runner-up was
Pittsburgh, and Pittsburgh Is next to
last.
Now we suppose one of the big topics of
dupe discussion for the Stove league will
be the probable plana of Frank Chanc

Base ball will be tackled for the Inst
time today and thrown into the hay for
approximately six months. Old Man Font
Ball will waltzc in and be crowned the
king of the outdoor sports for the next
ten weeks. Most all of the local leather
egg machines are ready to turn on the
steam today and as some of them have
been out on the turf doing preparatory
work for the last two weeks, they are
already In the pink of condition and
should be ablo to dish up some re'tshable
foot ball this afternoon.
Most all of the rowdyism has been ob
literated from amateur foot ball and this
fat was amply demonstrated last fall
when all the local contingents went
through tho season without a fistlo en
counter. They have all innoculated the
college spirit and either win or lose on
their merits and not on their pugilistic
ability.
Columbian Get Rosrke Park.
Although the Columbians have secured
Kourke park to play their games, they
will have to play at Fontenelle park today
because the Omaha Amateur association
will utilize Rourke park. The Colum
bians will mix with the Fontenelles this
afternoon at Fontenelle park and a
classy contest is assured because the
Fontenelles demonstrated their ability
last Sunday, when they held the fast
Monmouth parks to a close score. As
predicted, the Columbians will have one
of the best teanfs congregated In this
neighborhood for somo months.
Today the Monmouth parks will prac
tlce. After their debate with the Fonten
elles last Sunday Manager I,lndmler de
cided that they needed a good light work
out consequently ho set aside today for
that purpose. Here Is the way the Parks
will line up: I-indmler, center; Golden,
and Pierce, guards; Carlson and Pchram,
tackles; Haller and Johnson, ends; O'Neil,
quarter; Pe Frances, left half; Tellman,
right half; Hassen, fullback; Payne,
McCreary and Sharp, substitutes.
Walworth at Wliner,
Without a question of a doubt Winner,
Neb., put themselves on the map last
season by glomming the championship
of Nebraska. They had a wonderful
foot ball machine and, according to the
dope, they will be Just as strong this
term. Walworth, formerly the big noise
on the Crelghton troupe, will coach this
aggregation and also play when -his
services are needed. Under his direction
they ought to loom up stronger than ever
before. His vast experience makes him
a valuable acquisition to the home guards.
Here are the geezers that will defend
the reputation of Wisner: Learson, Paul
son. McGill, 13rew, Gear, Kilso, Leo Kane,
H. Kane, R. Kane, Benzlen, Schirmer,
Salsbury, Jaeke, BreltkeuU, Rpan, Hehl-
bacck and Walworth. Today Wisner will
buck up against the fast California Ath
ltlcs at Wisnor.
All the Omaha leather egg handlers will
have to keep their gllmers on the Colum
bians this trip for they have certainly
gathered together a nifty bunch of oval
kickers. Here are the men that will be
affiliated with the Columbians: Murphy,
Roxso, Payne, Sandau, McCormlck,
Lynch, Navy, Foran, Qulgley, Rosslter,
Fitzgerald, Flanagan, Selden, Williams,
Rachman and Llddell.
Although to date the Fontenelles have
not received recognition as a class "A"
squad it looks like they will be recognized
as such before many moons flow by.
They showed up like a top-notch gany
against the Monmouth Parks ami If they
keep up the gait they will find them
selves fighting for the championship be
fore the termination of the season. Here
are the gents that will represent the Fon
tenelles: Carlson. Brewster, Oulmlotte,
Schmlttroth, Gautier, Mahnert, Beaton,
Thompson, Allwine. Fish and Glasgow.

Arthur Moran. formerly with the Ath

LINCOLN, Neb.. Oct. 3.-(Speclal )-Tlie
strength of Nebraska's foot ball team U
very much in question. Starling with the
best hunch of new material In recent
years, tho CornhUKkcrs were doped to
even eclipse the wonderful all victorious
team of last year. With six veterans from
tho 1913 eleven back In the fold and three
exceptionally brilliant frc.hman cr
formers to recruit tho ranks. Cornhusker
supporters were expecting the greatest
team In the school's history.
It Is Mill early to venture any predic
tion, buth the fact remains that the lasl
ten days hns demonstrated Coach Stlehm
has a full slrrd man's lob ahead of him.
Cornhuskera are not at all alarmed, but
what he can fill It with samo ease that
given Nebraska four nil Missouri
ey champions in as 'loiny years.
Stiehm s line, apparently destined to lie
the, lest since the Cornhusker mentor
took charge of athletics at Nebraska, is
not pcrfornilni; to bis entire satisfaction.
The loss of the two ends from the 1913
team, with the auard nnd center missing,
lias comielled him to make shifts which
in the early scimmancs lias apparently
weakened the defensive power of the
team. That the weakness Is only tem
porary is conceded, but it must be rem
ed ed nnd Stlehm Is devoting Ills entire
attention to It.
I.lnr Conipnrntlvrly rn,
1'noer tho last nrrnngoment which
Stlehm hns made, the Nebraska line Is1
a comparatively new one. Only Cnmeron
at center ad Abbott nt guard remain from
last year's combination which success
fully resisted the attficks of all teams.
Cameron has been shifted from tackle to
center, but this is not expected to cripple
his playing, ns renter was Cameron's
original position.
Shields, Corey, Norrls and Amii.'k are
tho new men found on the Hue, lint
A mac k has been played principally at
end to fill In the gap there. Corey played
a wonderful game at tackle ns ,i fresh
man, but cl'd not show time h In the fresh
men gamo last Saturday. What Norrls
and Corey can do at t kle remain yet
to be demonstrated. Shields and Abott'ls
at guards, with Cameron at center should
form a very effective coinblnntloii.
Offense la Ptronwcr.
Pulling Capt.iln llslllnn from tackle
end putting him In the bnckfleld ns n
running mate for Kutherlorcl and Cham
berlain has weakened the defense greatly,
but at the same time 'ins given Nebraska
an offensive mac tilne unrivalled In the
.Missouri Valley. Italllxan demonstrated
great ground gaining ability Inst season
and with Rutherford lend Ch'uubcrlaln,
who bus long been touted ns Nebraska's
greatest freshmen player, form n trio
that will give greet concern to every
team meeting the Cornluiskers tills fall.
Rutherford nnd Hnllbtnn nre playing
the balfs, with Chamberlain at fullback.
In addition to wonderful line, smnshlns
ability, Cliiinibeiliiln Is also n fancy open
field runner, and the buskers should
have a scoring machine wlch will keep
all of the teams busy. In addition to
speed, the, Nebraska bnckfleld will also
be exceptionally heavy, weighing almost
as much as the lino. Chamberlain,
Rutherford and Halllgan are all big men,
averugliig 10 pounds.
Knris Are llrnvler.
The ends will also be heavier than In
recent years with Ams' k nnd Halls being
lined for the first string candidates. Hal's

CREIGHTON SHOWS UP WELL
Lineup of Foot Ball Team Develops
Some Good Material This Year.
PROSPECTS UNUSUALLY BRIGHT
Many nt the Old Men In the Hqnnd
and Numerous New Ones
Who Are Comers Are
llrought In.
Crelghton university hns the liest pros
pects In years for a whirlwind gri.llron
assemblage. Never before has there been
such a flno assortment of scrappy, sea
soned men. A line on the caliber of the
men may be gained from a statement by
tho coaches Friday before tho Kearney
game. In giving tho lineup for that game
it was uncertain whether or not Tamlsea
would be used. Tamlsea has been a mem
ber of the team for two full seasons
and during that period baa been a star
kicker, but so flc ice Is tho fight for
places this year, that tho Jap is in dan
ger , of losing his position at guard.
Conrad and Warren are two men who
are fighting for a position. Conrad won
the all Kansas position at St. Mary's
last year. Warren won his later at
Crolghton last fall.
Crelghton stock received a sudden boost
during the last week, when Tom Coffey
I appeared for a position. Coffey played
i halfback on the South Dakota stato
team laHt year, uud bis ability in handling
and throwing the forward pass made life
miserable for the blue and white.
Coffey has been busy to date learning
the Crelghton plays, but will probably get
into the lineup this week. His coming
has offset to a great extent the Injuries
which have robbed the team of Coady and
Krhart. Coady will lie out for the sea
son with an Injured lfg, while Frhart's
wrist Is broken.
C'asry at Fullback.
Timothy Casey, lust year's fullback,
has again donned u, suit and will be
heard from In the race for honors.
McCarthy, last year's halfback,, is ar
ranging his studies so that lie may again
be able to Join the squad. Burford at
center Is pronounced by Dudley as a
find. He played the same position two
years ago. Wise, who won an all-state
fullback position. Is playing tackle.
Breetszke, who played half In the open
ing game, has replaced Krhart
hus forged Into the lineup at fullback
and Wanner baa been shifted to half.
Platz has won a home at the other half.
The announcement that Crelghton and
Marquette will play under the fresh
men rule this year, has dampened the
chances of Die blue and white In this
particular game. The enforcement of
this rule will eliminate such men as
Burford, Conrad, Wise, Carrlg, Plus,
Wagoner, Steffan and Coffey from the
Crelghton lineup and will probably re
sult in defeat
Carrlg seems to have nosed ahead In the
race with I-cvy and Flood fur the quar
