Alumni and Profs
Of Indiana Uni Jo
Play Base Ball Fray
, Bloomington, , Ind., June 17. A
' number of former athletes of Indiana
university are arranging to come
here for the annual baseball game be
tween the alumni and faculty of the
institution, which is one of the fea
. hires of "Alumni day" of commence
ment week. 'Each year a number' of
the old bunch of ball tossers return
to the scenes of their former' tri
umphs snd try to even scores with
the faculty snd alto demonstrate that
they have not lost their cunning on
the diamond. Last year, when the
alumni forces were led by Frank C.
Dailey, former United States district
attorney for Indiana, the faculty was
inglorioasly defeated.'
' E. E. -McFerren, an Indianapolis
lawyer, has been selected to captain
the old stars this year and plans to
lead a large force against the pro
fessors, including Harry McDowell,
Winamac; George W. Moore, Spen
cer; Brandt C. Downey, Indianapolis;
John O. Sutphin, Bloomington;
Claude Malott, Bloomington; Charles
Dailey, Bluff ton; Dudley , 0. Mc

Mickey Erehart, Bloomington.
Mermen said the large number of
players was necessary as the men
would tire out stealing bates on the
professors. William Lowe Bryan,
president of the university and a dia
mond star at Indiana in his under
graduate days, will be in the lineup
for the faculty. .

Jimmy Drexel, the fast Omaha
lightweight, will box a ten-rbtfnd ex

Few Have Larger Purses.
Only five cities on the Great West
ern circuit are hanging up a larger
aggregate of purtet than Omaha. And
two of these Cleveland and Detroit
are also Grand circuit sessions.
The Omaha meetmar will mark two
significant "firsts" in Nebraska horse
racing circles. It will be the first time
that a city in the state has been on the
Great Western circuit, and the first
time that $2,000 . purses have been
raced for in these parts.
Taken all in all. it narrows down to
a plain fact: Omaha may not be the
best harness racing city in the middle
west, but if it isn't, which city is?
Quite a delegation of Omaha horse
men and their charges journeyed over
to iMeoraska city last week to help
keep the metropolis on the map at
the second meeting on the Nebraska
Midway Racing circuit. Practically
all of the starters st the meeting had
been here the previous week at the
Benson races, the curtain raiser on
the circuit. A great many of the con
sistent winners at Nebraska City had
also been consistent winnert here, al
though a few surprises were sprung
and considerable dope uptet.
A Chicago horae scribe has this to
say of a local pacing celebrity one
Hal Connors:
"The pacer Hal Connors, that last
season was a member of the Geers
string snd supposed to be so good he
was named all the way down the
Grand circuit, but never won s heat,
being unsteady any time he was asked
to show something like a race-horte
rate of tpeed, now It owned at Omaha
by Tom Dennison and is doing well,
a pair of hopples having been fitted to
him with such good results he looks
like a ture 2:10 or better pacer on the
half-mile rings. Mr, Geert will not
drive a hoppled pacer, which is why
Hal Connort did not parade in 'the
ttrapt' last year."
Ronin Injured in SpilL
Jim Ronin, the popular horseman
in charge of the East Omaha ttablea
of the driving club, wat painfully
bruised and lacerated in a spill at
the Thursday races of the Nebraska
City meeting. Mr, Ronin was driving
the well-known Jim O'Shea in the
2:25 pace.
Jim O'Shea la well known, among
other things, for his ability to step
some occasionally, and also to figure
in some of the nicest little spills ever
staged for the edification of a line
of morbid rail birds. If Jim doesn't
look out he'll get his owner, Fred
Myera, mad and find himself on the
bow end of a milk wagon some fine
morning.
Another addition has been made to
the Tom Dennison stables, Mr. Den
nison purchasing a likely looking
trotter, Nutway, eligible to the 2:20
class, while over at the Nebraska City
meeting. Nutway will be held over
until next year before being started.

FREE-FOR-ALL PACE
RULED A TIE RAGE
Secretary of A. T. A. Wires Judges
' Bad Ro Bight to Order a
' Fourth Heat -
OMAHA 1 HOBSEMEH PLEASED
Reports to the contrary notwith
standing, the battle between the two
great pacers, Hal McKinney and Co
lumbia Fire, at Nebraska City Thurs
day, was a tie. No leu an authority
than the secretary of the American
Trotting association ssyt it was a tie;
and while the free-for-all pace at the
Nebraska City meeting of the Ne
braska Midway Racing circuit will go
down In racing annals as one of the
greatest contests ever staged on a
half-mile track In this country, and
pottibly some of Columbia Fire's fol
lowers will still contend that this
horse wat the winner, it is unani
mously agreed among well-infoimed
horsemen that the event was a tie,
pure and simple. . .
The race brings up tome fine points
in harness racing judgments, and pre
sents problems that judget on Ne
braska trackt may have to wrestle
with in the future.
When the newt filtered into local
horsemen's rendezvous that Hal Mc
Kinney had been defeated, at Ne
braska City, they could hardly believe
it, especially after the local pacer's
decisive victory at the Benson track
the week before. "
Day Chilly; Track Bad.
The facts of the Nebraska City
free-for-all pace are as follows:
The day wat chilly and a ttiff wind
was blowing. The track was in poor
condition, having been sprinkled the
night before the race, and as the
morning was cloudy, the oval had no
chance to dry. '
Despite these conditions, world's
records for a half-mile track in June
were hung up.
Hal McKinney won the first heat
in 2:07.
The second heat wat a dead heat,
the time being 2:07.
Columbia Fire copped the third heat
in 2:08.
Now, under the rules of the Ne
braska Midway Racing circuit, the
race should have been declared a tie
right there. ,
Tom Dennison Protests.
After the finish of the third heat
the owner of Hal McKinney protest
ed against continuing the race. The
judges, having the authority to do so,
ordered a fourth heat. To keep peace,
Mr. Denison instructed Bob Sebastian,
driver of Hal McKinney, to take the
pacer out on the track for the fourth
time. Columbia Fire won the fourth
heat in 2:10.
Upon arriving in Omaha, Mr. Den
nison wired W. M. Knight, secretary
of the American Trotting association,
asking him, in view of the conditions
prevailing on the Nebraska Midway
Racing circuit, whether the judges had
the right to call a fourth heat Mr.
Knight wired "no." The real facts
of the case, therefore, were that the
race was s tie.
Hal McKinney and Columbia Fire
meet again at Auburn next week. -
The stage is all set for the big
championship tug-of-war match to be
held at the Auditorium tonight at 8:15
between the Danes and the Swedes.
The Danes are now the champions
of Omaha. They captured the title in
tne tournament held at the Auditor
ium last winter. The Swedes, who
were second in the tourney, are chal
lenging the Danes for the title and
for a $500 side-bet.
Both teams have been praticing dil
igently for the last month and Cap
tain Talbod of the Danes and Caotain
Samuelson of the Swedes both report
their men are ready for the, pull of
tneir lives, uotn predict victory with
easy confidence.
ihe pull will be a finish affair five
feet to the flag. The pull of five feet
must be made even if it takes all night
xne sale ot seats tor the event has
been brisk and it is expected several
thousand persons will find places in
the Auditorium tonight.
two preliminary pulls of twenty
minutes will be staged previous to the
Dig event the bpalding club will
tussle with the Columbian club and
the Florence Fraternity club will tan.
gle with the German Turner club.

Well known physician who has
studied widely in this country and

enabled Ty Cobb to "come back" so
quickly and show such tremendous
