KRUEGER HITS A HOME RUN
Omaha and Wichita cut a double
bill fifty-fifty yesterday afternoon, the
Rourkei nabbing the first event, 12 to
8, and the hostile tribe from Kansas
capturing. the second one, 5 to 2. In
the meantime Lincoln walluped the
Grizzlies and gained half a game on
our athletes.
' Both of the combats were wild and
wooly affairs and it would take a mas
ter to describe them.
The first game was a see-saw affair
in which the Rourkes took the lead
several times and then tried to thrust
the game back upon the Wolves. Lou
North . started for Omaha and after
hurling four nifty rounds, blew up in
the fifth and started to blow again in
the eighth, at which time Manager
Marty derricked him and summoned
O'Toole to the rescue. O'Toole pro
ceeded to fill the bases by walking
two men and Marty sent out 'the 5.
O. S. for Otto Merz to prepare, but
O'Toole steadied and came home
with the bacon.
Krueger gave the Rourkes a good
start in the opening stanza of the first
game by clouting the pill .over the left
field fence for a home run with the
runway cluttered up with two of Pa's
great athletes. A triple by Burg in
the seventh also helped and errors by
the Wolves intermingled with Rourke
hits did the rest.
Miller Oeti On.
Ray Miller went to bat five times
in the first game and-got on every
time. He hit once, got a life on an
error once and walked three timet.
He scored four runs.
The second game was sad. , Harry
Krause pitched nice ball, but his pals
kicked the game away for him.
The Rourkes and Wolves tangle
tgain this afternoon. There will only
be one game and It will start it 3:15.

Det Moines, Aug. TS. Topeka
scored two runs in the first Inning on
Baker's wildness and costly error,
increased its lead on two clean hits
in the fifth and in the eighth after
Des Moines had tied the score, won
the game on three successive doubles,
following a pass. Score:
