BRUCK IS LICKED
IN FIRST COMBAT
Misjudged Fly by Krmj and. Wild
Pitch Give Wichita Run. Which
. Are Enough to Cop Fray,
EOrBKELETS FAIL TO HIT
Failure to iwat the offerings of one
ilalarkey, an ancient gent from the
slopes of the Pacific, with the neces
sary frequency, a misjudged fly by
Marry Krng and a hectic heave by
Fred Brink, combined to prove the
undoing of Pa Kourkc's de luxe ath
letes yesterday. As a remit of
the above-mentioned shortcoming
Omaha dropped the combat to Wich
ita, 2 to I. -
A hundred fans and fanetles turned
out yesterday to lamp the fray de
spite thee hilly breeirs and threaten
ing; sprinkles. Highly-tinted report!
of the sanguinary ferocity of the
Wolves and their proprtiBitirs to bat
tle the umpires had preceded Jack
son's crew into Omaha and the bugs
didn't want to miss any of the ex
citement. Bugs Disappointed.
But the bugs were doomed to dis
appointment. The Wolves were a
most peaceful and tranquil outfit yes
terday, and even Jimmy Jackson
failed to speak above a whisper. The
only sound that arose from the visit
inn dugout occurred when Roaring;
Jdlt Kappa inadvertently sneezed,
and he apologized profusely when
Umps Mullen cast glowering glances
in bis direction..
Fred Hruck, who cameto Omaha
"with Marty OToole, made his debut
jnd hurled a pretty good game.
Freddy lugs a lot of speed, a nicely
breaking curve and possesses that ex
emplary tribute of shooting the first
ball over the rubber.
' That Frederick lost his first fray Is
no discredit to him; his mates didn't
;et the world on fire behind him. The
Wolves, started strong in, the first
round. And as Malar key was in no
.mood to permit any promiscuous
.scoring they finished strong, too.
J Marty Commits Faux Paua.
JJj Bill Fox opened hostilities by
swatting a safe knock to center. To-
'.1in sacrificed and lletling flew out.
l.itachi lifted a, long fly to center.
.Jvlarty Krug became temporarily be
wildered, mlaudged the fly j com
pletely and the ball dropped safe for
two bases while Fox galloped home.
After Jackson struck out and tried
to kill somebody by throwing his
hat in the second stanza, Koaring Kill
-Kapps caught a M'alk. Roaring Hill
I wii a great moorher yesterday; he!
-not three of the four passes Hruck is-
NMied yesterday. Dully Ciray reefed
.'4 double down the first base line.
While Itruik was preparing to whiff
Malarkey he "uncoupled a wild chuck
which hit the plate on the edge and
bounced to the grandstand. Koaring
Cull lumbered over iheruhbrr for the
marker. I
That ended it for the Wolves, a
Hruck hurled airtight ball the reit of
the g,mr. I
Rally Falls Short.
The Rouikcs tried to Mage a rally
in the ninth, but it wa to no avail.
I rme Kruegrr opened the flame
wub wall a lwo-b(rger to center.
I'urg ilrw out t Jackson, but Kiausc
v as on l iitihi'n nror and Knie
vtr went la thud. Maishall, hitting

Sugar Cards Being
Issued in Greece
(Correspondence of The Associated Press. )
ATHENS, Greece, May 8. The govern
mentsl committee which hss Just been
formed for the purpose of securing and
distributing necessities of life has, aa Its
first act, sent a steamer to New York to
obtain petroleum which, at the moment,
la one of the things In greatest demsnd
In Greece. The grain and flour dealers of
tha Plreus have petitioned the committee
to take similar steps to obtain wheat from
the United States.
The scarcity of sugar has become so
serious that the committee Is distributing
It only on the presentation of sugar cards.
Thus far the cards have been issued only
to families, snd the confectioners and
cafe proprletora are complaining bitterly.
In many towns and cltlea there Is aban.
Intely no sugar to be had, which is par
ticularly hard on the Greeks, whose prin

Another Item In the list of scare's arti
cles is sulphate of copper, which the vine
growers need for spraying their vines,
and which can no longer be obtained from
England because of Its use there in the
manufacture of munitions. The vine
growers have succeeded In placing a
large order In the United States, but tha
price has gone up threefold, and In many
