Creighton High School Foot Ball Squad for 1914
BAN" JOHNSON'S clearing "for all
time the base ball atmosphere of
v the presence of Charles W. Mur
phy"' is to be the big event of the
week at the National league's
annual meeting In New York. Johnson's
previous claims along this line may make
some a bit dubious of his achievement,
but we- shall see what we shall see. In
the meantime, we eay "strength to his
arms." But things -eeem to have shifted
a bit for Murphy. Yesterday excoriated
as the pest of base ball, anathematized
nowhere so much as In his own Chicago,
today he Is being touted as some Mur
phy for "saving the day over on the
west side." Oeorge S. Robins, writing In
the Sporting News from Chicago, goes
on to relate how, whan It seemed the
Federals might make their peace deal and
supplant the Cubs oa the west side,
"Murphy boarded a car post haste for
Cincinnati" and qpnvlnced Charles P.
Taft "or the folly of sanctioning a deal
that would take away a major league
club from the west side In Chicago,"
whereupon the deal fell through. Then
with- eclat and much weeping for joy,
the Chicago fans turned from panning
Murphy to weep on his swelling bosom.
As farther illumination Mr. Robins adds:
The relation of Murphy to the Cubs Is
plain. He holds notes of Mr. Taft with
a majority of the stock of the Cubs as
collateral.
Many may open their eyes at this. But
Robins offers as circumstantial evidence
in support of his claim that:
i Murphy won tne point, weegnman win
' nnt nurchase the Cubs and Roger Bres-
nahan, as per agreement with Murphy,.
was appointed manager ol the team to
succeed ' Hank O'Uay.
80 much for .the, tenure of Murphy.
Then It appears- tha Brother Johnson,
who doth protest a lot. "has a Job on
his hands. WhTT6 "wishing hlnrsUcoess.' let
us quote yet again from the Sporting
News, this time from Its editorial col
umns: ' ,
There Is an effort being made to
charge Charles W. Murphy, silent partner
In the Chicago Cubs, with responsibility
for blocking peace negotiations with- the
Federals. Some critics also refer to him
as the "goat" brought into the situation
by Organised Ball to bear the onus of
wrecking a settlement which Organized
Ball pretended It desired, yet really did
not wish. ... .
Mr. Murphy may be responsible for sev
eral things In base ball that were not for
the good of the game, but we must come
to his defense in this case. Mr. Murphy
Is not responsible for the failure of peace
negotiations. His representations to Mr.
Taft may have been the cause of the
final breaking of negotiations with Mr.
Weeghman. but the fact remains that
thoBe negotiations practically had ended
before Mr. Murphy had injected himself
into the situation, and, moreover, Mr.
Murphy's appearance would not . have
Interfered with the negotiations had there
been any basis upon which agreement
could have been reached.
But one thing all seera agreed on Is
that, nevertheless and notwithstanding.
Murphy ought to go. And, maybe he will
when he gets the purchase prtca of that
"majority stock." Oh, dear, oh, dearl
But what boots It whether Murphy is
In or out of the atmosphere of base ball,
so long; as the war lasts? The big thing
for the big men of base ball to accom
plish Is peace. Regardless of the rights
or wrongs of the present situation, peace
would be the biggest possible paying
proposition for all concerned. The or
ganised forces still contend that the out
laws are absolutely unreasonable In their
terms of peace and so long as such a
feeling exists, peace, of course, will be
a good long ways off. Every friend of
the game, whether he has the money and
time Invested In It or- not. hopes that
present conditions may not last long. If
they continue up to the advent of the
next playing season It will mean another
lean year for base ball.
Everybody who saw Dan Syekle umpire
in the Western league at the close of last
season 'must feel like-v congratulating
President O'Neill for re-engaging him.
Pan gave us the best, line of umpiring
thU league had In many seasons, if not
ever. He was on the Job every time and
kept the players moving, which Is a
big feature In making base ball attrac
tive. There was only one bad thing
about having Dan and that was the con
trast betwen his work and that of some
of the fellows who followed him. But
perhaps President Tiperlno means to
provide against that contingency for 1915.
Merely calling the Federals names and
saying they are down and out does not
help the situation much. The woods are
lull of wise parrots who told us the Feds
would never open the season of 1311 and
again 1914. Yet they finished both. Now,
in all fairness. Isn't It time for these in
spired ones to give out something real?
What we want Is peace and order.

National Golf Meets
Likely to Be Held in
the West Next Year
NEW YORK, Nov. In view of the
custom which heretofore lias been ob
served with regard to awarding national
golf championships. It is quite likely that
next year the west will have the privilege
of holding not only the women's meet
ing, but the national amateur as well. In
fact, many of the contestants In the
championship at Nassau have been dis-
cunslnir among themselves their various
preference.
The deposition of the tourneys rests in
the humis of the tTnlted Plates Oolf as
sociation, which will meet In this city on
January IE. In 1913 and li'H this tourna

ured necessary that It shall go west In
1910. ' There has born talk of sending It

Creighton High school wound up the
most successful season , the school has
ever enjoyed on the gridiron wtih a tie
game at O'Neill Thursday. Tha boys on
the hill have played, six games, eac&jrlth
tte7'Btrdngest"teahUm"Thui part of the"
country and only one, that with Shen
andoah, la., was dropped. The prettiest
battle of the year was with South Omaha
on- Creighton field.
, Cyril McCarthy, a senior at the Arts
college and formerly a halfback on the
Creighton , varsity,' took charge or the
team in mldeeason and developed It Into
a much feared machine. O'Connor has
acted as captain.
.' Biaenlus, the big fullback, has been the
star ground gainer, while a powerful line
and fleet ends, McQutre and Morton,
have helped to throw back the charges
of the enemy.
A much stronger team will be placed In
the field, it Is thought, neat year, as the
showing mads this year has attracted a
large following.

compiled a remarkable record and as they
are now going good, the Columbians will
have to hustle to grab the winning num
ber. In weight the teams tip the beams
about tha' same. Oodles of spur staff
exists between the two aggregations, so
a fight worth the dough is anticipated.
First game at 1:30 p. m., second at S p. m.
Following Is the lineup for second
game:
COLUMBIANS. , ATHLETICS.
So Skipper. Bill Schipke will, maybe,
manage Salt Lake City next season.
Well, the bklpper knows the game and
can play It and maybe can run a team
under the right circumstances. Here's
hoping. ,

As customary,. Father Time la the dude
who is the extinguisher of all sports. He
Is about to swing his. scythe and cut, the
leather egg game off the map for ap
proximately nine months. And with him
ha will trfko some of the local stars.
Every year some of the bright lights
pass out of tha arena; sometimes with
regret, sometimes without any sentiment.
Nevertheless, -the procession la an endless
chain. Each season sees ' a number of
familiar countenances disappear and
other stars loom up and the 'old game
trots right along. v
Dlspates Be Settled.
Although Turkey day Is tha day set
aside for the asbestos 'to drop, neverthe
less' the Independent teams In and around
these jungles are compelled to utilize more
time in order to settle their difficulties.
The class "B" championship is still un
settled and' the same is true of tha class
"A" contingents. In class "A" circles
all tha teams with championship aspira
tions have been eliminated except the
Monmouth Parks and Columbiana They
will battle at Rourke park next Sunday.
Their last game resulted In a 0 to 0 soore,
so you fans can readily see that this
gams will be a warm affair from the first
toot" of the whistle until the last second
of time has been cremated.
The only team that Is kicking real hard
about the class "B" championship Is the
Maxda Tigers. ' They have ' become In
oculated with the Idea that they can trim
the Columbian Reserves, and In all prob
ability a game will be arranged for next
Sunday' as a curtain raiser to the class
"A" championship bout. When these two
games are history the championship, un
less knotted scores are made, will be set
tled beyond any question of a doubt.
Battl a Rosrk Park.
There will be two stellar attractions on
tha bill of fare at Rourke park for the
foot ball devotees this afternoon. -The
first argument will be between the South
Omaha High school and the Epaldlngs.
Several of the high school boys reside in
the- same neighborhood with tha Spald-
tngs.'and as they have beea floating the
loquacious Junk relative to how they
could smother the Spaldings. the latter
peeved up and challenged themJ For some
time It was doubtful whether or not the
game would be played, as the high school
boys were opposed to playing on Sunday,
According to Manager Cavanaugh,' all the
arrangement have been completed for the
game to be Jerked off today and he said
it was perfectly O. K. to advertise their
opponents as the South Omaha High
school.
At about S o'clock the Columbians will
hook up with tfce Athletics. This game
has been the Ulk of the town for the last
week, so, undoubtedly, a large crowd will
be on hand." To 'date the 'Athletics 'hare
