Judgments
HOW long will Strangler Lewis
last with Joe Stecher when they
meet in Gene Melady's ring at
the Douglas County Fair grounds,
July 4? This is the all-absorbing topic
of conversation among devotees of
the wrestling game in Omaha these
days. There is quite a diversity of
opinion, too. Those inclined to risk
their wealth on their judgement have
n't put in much of an appearance of
yet, but the preliminary speculation is
rife and it wouldn't surprise if con
siderable sums are ventured on the
approaching match. There are, of
course, those staunch Stecher boost
ers who insist Joe will make as short
work of Lewis as he has the rest of
them, and they account for the two
hour draw at Evansville by accusing
Lewis of stalling tactics and foot
racing. Utriers believe Lewis will give
Joe a run. But, for all this difference
of opinion, there isn't a dissenting
vote wnen it is suggested Joe will be
the victor. Everybody awards Joe the
ultimate victory. Apparently there is
not a Lewis man extant 1 his is some
what of a remarkable situation. Gen
erally, even the most successful cham
pion is disputed by somebody. But,
this time nary a person who will even
grant Lewis a chance to win a fall, is
to be found. This is not only true of
the tans, but the experts and critics
as well, except that the latter are
more generally convinced Lewis will
be quickly and easily vanquished. It's
a great tribute for Joe, this unanimity
ot opinion, it proves the public has
confidence in his ability and his in
tegrity. And once more Nebraska
has come into her own.
Big league clubs in the east are
having a little trouble with the gam
bling element again. This is getting to
be an annual difficulty. Ever and anon
the gamblers have tried to force their
way into base ball, but they have
never uncovered a successful method
of beating the game because of the
uncertainty of the sport. The worst
team in the world ofttimes wallops
the best. The gambler's dope sheet
will not pan out on such happenings.
There is little fear, however, that
gambling will ever be closely intimate
with the game itself. Back in the 70s,
a quartet of stars sold out to the
gamblers and were caught in the act
Not since then has there even been
a suspicion that players have sold
themselves to the layers of odds. It's
too difficult for a player to sell out in
the first place, and it is too difficult
for him to make good his sell if he
does. This, with the fact that the
dope sheet will not run true in base
ball, makes gambling on the national
pastime precarious for the bookie and
there isn t much cause for worry now
that the law has taken a hand in the
base ball pool lotteries.
HARMONY IN AMATEUR RANKS
Not a Protest Registered by Teams
Performing: on Sand Lots
last Sunday.
FEED DOESN'T MATERIALIZE
Mr. Tyrus Raymond Cobb, base
ball player extraordinary, will have to
step out pretty shortly, or will dis
cover himself trailing one or two of
the stellar lights of the American
league this year instead of leading.
Cobb is quite a way behind in batting
and base stealing and he will have to
hustle at a rapid clip if he intends to
catch up. Tris Speaker has a batting
lead over Cobb that is almost enor
' mous and Tristam is still clouting 'em
far and wide. Several players lead
him at base stealing. Cobb generally
is a little late to start, but this year
he is far behind his 1915 records.
Granting that Tyrus is still some ball
player and he may not be slowing
, up as yet, another week or so and it
will be even money that he doesn't
lead the league at either hitting or
base stealing.
Early in the spring Clarke Griffith
said "the Cleveland Indians are like
a spring flower and are bound to
fade." It is now considerably past
spring and Mr. Griffith's pretty little
simile isn't working out very well.
Foxy Grif has always been given to
the making of predictions, and he has
never been a whirlwind success with
his prognostications. Cleveland is
still stepping at a lively pace and
gives every indication of continuing to
do so. Cleveland may not win the
pennant, but if Mr. Griffith expects
to win it, he'll have Cleveland to beat
Eastern tennis sharks are rejoicing
over reports from the far west that
Maurice McLoughlin, the celebrated
comet, will not flash across the east
ern tennis horizon this year. The east
erners are already awarding the hon
ors to R. Norris Williams. The east,
however, seems to be overlooking
William Johnston, Griffin, Fottrell,
Dawson and one or two others who
may hike their way and if they do Mr.
Williams is going- to have a little
competition, at least
Colby Jiek Coombs, relegated to
the scrap heap half a down times or
more, seems to be pulling one foot
out of the grave quite frequently this
vear and his hurling is a big aid to
the hustling Dodgers. Its an old
nroverb that says, "they never come
back," and it used to be pretty well
, accepted as the general rule, but the
old "kick-back" on predictions of the
end seems to be working regularly of
." late.
BY FRANK QUIGLEY.
Harmony reigned supreme on the
local sand lots last Sunday. Not a
protest was registered by a team con
nected with the Omaha Amateur Base
Ball association and all of the boys
behaved like a bunch of real true
soldiers. Naturally a few disputes, so
common during a battle for base ball
supremacy bobbed up, but nothing of
material value. Amateur base ball
players fight and fight hard to win,
consequently their temperature goes
above par without much provocation
and when the members of the associ
ation can on a Sunday play all the
games scheduled without a complaint,
an exception is registered that the
directors would not even dare to
dream about.
That much talked of fodder to be
produced by the magnates of the
Greater Omaha league for the direc
tors of the association on last Wed
nesday night, failed to materialize, be
cause the committee failed to make
the necessary arrangaments, but it will
probably be forthcoming next Wed
nesday. The usual meeting of the di
rectors was held at the city hall last
Wednesday night. The secretary read
the resignation of President Jake
Isaacson, and same was promptly re
jected by the board of directors. A
communication from Radowe Abek
ton, superintendent of the Board of
Recreation at St. Louis, referring to
the advisability of having the Class
B champions of Omaha play the
Class B champions of St. Louis at
St. Louis, was read. The president
was instructed to get more definite
information relative to what the St.
Louis association would be willing to
cough up to help defray the expenses
and a decision would then be in or
der. The board upheld the action of
the president in suspending Ollie
Munch of the Southeast Improvement
club. He was also instructed to sus
pend Joe Pavlik of the same team
tor the balance of this season.
Game Ordered Replayed.
The protested game between the
Ancient Order of United Workmen
and Modern Woodmen No. 945, was
thrown out and ordered replayed.
Several other protests were put on
file until sufficient evidence was se
cured to warrant a decision. A few
amendments to different articles in
the constitution were voted upon and
received the vote necessary at this
meeting, but the constitution requires
a unanimous vote at one meeting to
make them an active part of the con
stitution, or a two-thirds vote at two
consecutive meetings. So these
amendments will have to be voted
upon again next Wednesday.
In order to fill up the gap In the
Booster league left open by the de
parture of the South Omaha Midgets,
the directors decided to give this
franchise to the Benson Merchants.
By taking the standing of the South
Omaha Midgets, the Benson Mer
chants have no chance to win the
pennant, so they decided in order to
gain admittance in the association,
they would be fortified for next sea
son that they would be willing to for
feit every game played this season
regardless of the outcome.
Luxus Have Chance
To Get Lead Today
The eyes of all amateur fans In
Omaha are turned toward the Greater
Omaha league today. For this after
noon the Luxus, last year's champs,
will tangle with the Omaha Gas com-
Sany for the lead in the Greater
maha race.
Today the Gas company crew It
leading the league by virtue of one
more victory than the Luxus. But
if the Luxus cop this afternoon they
will have a margin on the gas boys.
It will be a battle for blood, as the
Luxus were defeated earlier in the
season by the Hull outfit and are de
termined to have revenge.
SOME INSIDE DOPE ON LEWIS
Hit Name is Not Lewis. But Freder
ick, and He Doesn't Hail from
Kentucky at All.
IS FORMER COLLEGE COACH
Though they say that Ed Lewis,
the young man, who is to be Joe
Stecher's next opponent, is one of
Kentucky s greatest athletic products,
Ed isn't from Kentucky at all and
Lewis isn't his name.
Ed Lewis was christened Robert
Frederick -shortly after he was born
and at that time his parents, both of
wnom were Lrermans, lived in a lit
tle place called Neekosa, Wis., which
is near the decidedly flourishing town
of Grand Rapids, in the badger
state.
That's the brief early history of
the strapping young fellow who is
to tackle Joe Stecher on the after
noon of July 4, in Gene Meladv's
big new arena at the Douglas County
fair grounds, just over the city line
of Omaha.
But after he left Wisconsin Lewis
starter on a regular "career." He
was such a big fellow and had so
much "heart" that he didn't fear any
thing in the world and naturally,
through sheer love of conflict, started
in on all branches of athletics. He
began really as a basket ball player
and from that drifted into base ball.
He got down into Kentucky and
then finding himself able to earn his
way through college became a student
at the University of Kentucky, in
Lexington. That a how he came to
be known as a Kentucky product. He
did so well in this respect that he
quickly got to be known as a leader
and when he was prepared to leave
school they offered him the lob of
physical director of the institution
and he accepted it holding the job for
a considerable length of time.
It wasn't long before his proficiency
in wrestling became known outside of
the school and in that way he got
to have numerous offers of matches,
some of which he accepted. Meeting

The Ramblers and the Polish Merchants
will stage their Jangle out at Fontenelle

to drag the Ramblers down, because, so far,
the Ramblers have Iced them all, and the

If the latter win It will be a horse a piece.

Amateur Base Ball association booked for
today, should be the mlxup between the
Omaha Gee company and the Luxus, At

the same enviable position when this came

game that will prove a thriller will un

for the Luxus, and Newt Shaffer will be
on the firing line for the gas children.
Over across the waves this afternoon, at
Athletic park, the champions of Council
Bluffs, namely the Joe Smiths, will en
deavor to smother the pride ot Omaha, the
Brandels troupe. This will be the Initial
offense for the Bluffers against the Bran
dels army, and as oodles of rivalry exists
between the partlea concerned an Interest
ing battle Is anticipated. Olson, who has
had practically no trouble vanquishing op
ponents of the Brandels this year, will
probably be on the mound for the Brandels,
and Hanson, the hero of many a bloodless
combat, will do his utmost to make the
Omaha dudes swing hopelessly at his offer
ings. If the Bourgeois hand ths Burgess-Keen

In the Greater Omaha will be temporarily

tangle another Important debate will be
pulled off, namely, the bout between the
Murphy-Did-Its and the Hollys, of the
famous City league. When these two teams

interesting question.
NEXT DE MSHND
RESTA BRUSH ERE
(Continued from Page One.)
at Indianapolis Rests and De Palma
met in their first tilt De. Palma won
after a wonderful race. He made a
new record to do it
Last fall in the special Invitation
race at New York Rests returned
victor at 100 miles. De Palma went
out at forty miles when his engine
failed him.
But it is this year that Rests has
earned the great victories over De
Palma. He won the 300-mile derby
two weeks ago at Chicago, beating
De Palma, who got second place,
when Ralph blew a spark plug at 296
miles. Then last Sunday at Chicago
in a special series of three matched
races between the two drivers, Rests
swept the boards by licking Ralph
three times straight, tt ten, twenty
i'our and fifty miles.
De Palma, according to the tales
circulating, is determined to have re
venge on his rival. The match rice
at Chicago transformed the friendly
rivalry of the pilots into a bitter ani
mosity. The spontaneous prediction,
then, is that when Rests and De
Palma encounter each other again a
real race will ensue. With De Palma
it will be a ease of do or die. With
Resta it will be a case of defending
hard-earned laurels until the end ar
rives. Meet in Omaha.
And the next meeting of these two
pilots will be on the Omsha speed
way, July IS.
De Palma was entered in the race
carded for Des Moines yesterday.
But Resta was ;npt. Neither will
Resta appear at Sioux City or Min
neapolis, but he will appear in Omaha.
His next appearance on a track will
be here. De Palma also will race in
Omaha.
It's easy to dope. Omaha speed
enthusiasts have a treat in store for
them. And no matter about the race
itself, no matter what the other driv
ers may do or not do, with Resta and
De Palma on the track together again
there will be a real race, unless the
old jinx asserts itself and puts one
of the cars out of the running.
It has been announced that the
Omaha classic, July 15, will be one
of the speedway races which will
count in tne competition for the title
of champion motor car driver of
America.
In the past this title has been more
or less speculative; it has been open
to argument. So this spring the
American Automobile association, un
der whose sanction and auspices all
races are held, evolved a point system
by which the chsmpion driver should
be determined.
Trophy and Cash.
A silver trophy and $13,000 in cash
will be awarded to the champion
driver. This is considerable of a prize
and will spur the pilots on to greater
efforts in their fight for wealth and
glory on the speedways.
Dario Resta now has a substantial
lead in the race for this coveted hon
or. He has 1,800 points, while Eddie
Rickenbacher, his nearest competitor,
has but 600. If Resta should win the
Omaha classic he will about cinch his
hold on the prize. That means Resta
will make an especial effort to win
the local event, and that means the
railbirds will see some record-breaking
speed, because Resta'a blue Peu
geot is working like a top this year
and is capable of clipping off . the
miles at a rate much raster than 100
miles an hour.

Omaha Tennis Fans
Prepare for State
Tourney at Wayne
- Omaha tennis enthusiasts are be
ginning to lay their plana for the in
vasion of Wayne July 17 to 22, when
the annual state tennis tournament
will be held.
Clarke G. Powell of Omaha, who
occupies the dignified position of
president of the state association,
has begun his campaign to induce
Omahans to attend the tourney, and
Clarke declares there isn't a racquet
wielder in the city who will escape
him. Clarke wants to see a bigger
representation from Omaha than any
other city.
If the weather Is good July 17 the
Omaha sharks are planning to tour
to Wayne in automobiles. It is a
130-mile drive to Wayne and is just
about the right distance for an or
ganized motor trip.
The Field club will probably send

BOSTON TO BID FOR THE
OLYMPIC GAMES IN 1920
New York, June 24. If the fair
goddess of fortune sends the Olympic
games to the United States of Amer
ica in 1920, there is going to be some
thing of a mad scramble for the honor
of holding the International cham
pionships, and right in the middle of
the fight will be the staid old town
of Boston, Mass. It was just about
296 years ago that our New England
forefathers founded the Hub. There
fore Boston will be 300 years of age
in the next Olympic year 1920. The
Bostonese are going to have a 300th
anniversary celebration worth while,
and the sportsmen there are already
talking over the possibility of hold
ing the Olympics in the Harvard
