THE OMAHA SUNDAY BEE: OCTOBER 1, 1916.
3 S
Judgments
. PPARENTLY Mr. Stewart.
A the new Cornhuskrr mentor,
ll u one more coach who rig
XA. idly adhers to that sacred
custom of dispensing glooin.
Gridiron practice has been under way
for two weeks at Lincoln and nary an
encouraging report has been heard.
True, no gnashing of the molars, or
tearing of the curly locks has started
t the camp, but the season is young
yet. Dissatisfactory, or disappointing,
or displeased is about as strong as the
early reports read, but when the days
of the big games roll around we can
expect to listen to heart-rending tales
ot woe describing the hospital list
in four figures, the cruel blows 1 of
circumstance and the like. This is
in no way knocking the new coach,
don't mistake that, all good coaches
are gloom dispensers. Alonzo Stagg
is one ot tne Dest coaches in the
business and he never in his life
smiled between September 1 and
Thanksgiving day. Hurry-up Yost
is another and Yost can shed more
tears in ten minutes that Nazimova
can in ten years. One Jumbo Stiehm
was a pretty good sob artist, himself.
Rather it inspires a new confidence
in Stewart to learn that he does lean
toward the gloom. The coach who
bubbles over with enthusiasm and ou-
timism often gets a rap in the neck,
So long as he is only displeased and
doesn't get discouraged we'll let him
sing tales of woe in every key on the
scale.
A great hue and cry has been
made by supporters of the major
leagues over the great sums of money
the majors have spent in purchasing
talent from the minors, the conten
tion being made that many minor
clubs were enabled to weather the
stormy 1916 season through the
money derived from the sale of
these players. It was very noble of
the majors, indeed, to spend all this
money. A score of scouts visited the
Western league this year. A dozen
ball players were purchased. Some
were bought outright, but we have
a hunch the number is small. Most
of the players must make good before
the Western league owner gets his
cash. That is the kind of a deal Pa
Rourke made for Smith, Kilduff and
Krueger. The scouts were willing to
purchase a lot of talent. They made
offers for many ball players that were
refused. For instance, we know one
scout who offered Hugh Jones of
Denver $500 for a certain ball player.
Just think of it, $500? We also know
of half a dozen other similar offers
that were made and we presume there
were many that we didn't hear about.
Very generous, indeed, very generous,
indeed. We suggest that Mr. Carne
gie ought to give medals to the ma
jor league club owners for their ex
treme generosity.
Tis said in major league circles
that the National commission, the su
preme court of base ball, will have
a new chairman named this winter.
The National commission as it now
stands consists of President Johnson
of the American league, President
. Tener of the National league with
Garry Herrmann, owner of the Cin
cinnati club, as chairman. The move
to elect a new chairman is the re
sult of dissatisfaction that the Na
tional league has two representatives
on the commission, while the Ameri
can league has but one. The asso
ciation of minor leagues might take
a tip from this proposal and try to
work one of its members into the
board to fill that position. The Na
tional commission rules over the
minor leagues, but the minors are not
represented on it. A man represent
ing all the minor leagues ought to
make the best kind of a chairman for
the board it would be fair to the
majors and fair to the minors and
it would be a wise move for all base
ball if such action was taken. The
minor leagues are finding the row
harder to hoe each year and they
ought to be given a little protection
and assistance.
The Omaha Amateur Base Ball as
sociation closes the most successful
season in its three years of existence
this afternoon, with a big field meet
at Rourke park. While its champion
ship team, the Armours, did not gain
any fame in the inter-city series as
did the Luxus a year ago, the season
locally was the best the association
has yet enjoyed. It finished with a
aubstantial sum of money in its treas
ury and the interest this year was
much greater. Some trouble was ex
perienced with rowdyism, but the
sandlotters are learning that it does
not pay to be too prone to start fights,
or work on the theory of "anything to
win," and are becoming better sports
men. (Next year the amateurs should
have a better season than this, and
they will if they will only exercise a
little care.
Til aald Pa Rourke is the only
Western league magnate who made
any money this year. And we'll wag
er Pa would willingly swap fortunes
with Rockefeller at that.
Frank label! declares Wichita is not
a dead base ball town yet and urges
the Western league to stick to it. All
right, let Isbell take charge down
there.
And yet, it seems, Brooklyn and
Philadelphia became unduly rash and
excited; the winner will have to meet
the Red Sox.
Down in Kansas they have hope of
trimming the Cornhuskers this fall.
Once more proving that hope springs
eternal in the human breast.
It's not polite to dispute your su
periors, but Marty Krug says our
Rourkes will have to wallop Louis
ville, anyhow.
We should worry, we're going to
hold our own world's series right
here at home. Up and at 'em, Rourkes.
It looked pretty bad for the inhab
itants of Flatbush until the Rube
clouted that three-bagger.
Anyway, Grover Cleveland Alex
ander got a fifty-fifty break with the
Brooklynites.
The amateurs occupy the spotlight
today. ,
It's about time for J. Willard to
emerge from his hole, isn't it?

CLASS A GRID LADS
SLOW TOORGANIZE
Only One Team, the Champion
Nonpareils, Are Beady for
Current Season.
CLASS B CREWS TOO FAST
BY FRANK QUIGLEY.
From present indications this
leather egg season will be a corker
with the local Sunday exponents. Al
though to date there is a scarcity of
Class A organizations, the field is
bubbling over with Class B and C
teams. Approximately twenty-five
teams in Omaha and Council Bluffs
are organized and ready to stand the
wallops, cuffs and bumps inflicted on
the gridiron. Only one Class A con
gregation has been mustered to
gether, namely, the Nonpareils,
which contains the cream of the local
available talent. It is possible that
two more speed machines will enter
the arena, because two leaders of
note have the matter .under advise
ment, and if orooer backing can be
secured they will answer the roll call
by next Sunday. However, the Class
A team is not dependent on them for
their schedule, because there are
plenty of out-of-town teams that are
especially anxious to hook up with
any fast team from Omaha.
According to the dope the Colum
bians, 1914 champions, and Monmouth
Parks, runners-up for the last ten
years, have visited the cemetery.
Since last season some of the play
ers have left town, others decided
that foot ball is rough on the com
plexion, and the balance have joined
other tribes. At that, at least
enoueh of their players could be suf
ficiently convinced that foot ball is a
grand old game to formulate a good
Class A herd.
Should Be Class A.
In the opinion of the writer, the
Fontenelles, C. B. Longeways and
Athletics should be recognized as
Class A contingents, but they want to
bounce backward into Class B. The
NonDareils could be called Class AA.
These three teams are too fast to
bump against the, players generally
known as Class B and they should
not acknowledge the supremacy of
the Nonpareils until the latter hand
out a few packages of Missouri stuff.
On paper the Nonpareil tribe looks
unusually sugary, but foot ball play
ers are only human, and although the
monickers ot the Nonpareils loom up
like a lighthouse during a fog, they
have all been under fire for some
time and who knows but some of
them are ripe to burn out. They
can't shine forever, because even the
stars take the toboggan ride some
day. The Nonpareils should not
waltz away witn tne cnampionsmp
unmolested. If you leather egg
manipulators cannot do anything else
purchase a sack- ot lemons ana turn
them over to the Nonpareils.
Games Today.
Over at Athletic park, Council
Bluffs, this afternoon at 3 p. m., the
Mazdas will collide with the'C. B.
Longeways. This contest will be a
live wire affair, with a shade in favor
of the Council Bluffs warriors. A
practice game will be rolled on the
boards ;at Luxus park this afternoon
at 2:30, between the Nonpareils and
the Nonpareil Reserves. The Re
serves are a Class B team, but they
will undoubtedly give their older and
more experienced opponents a tough
battle. At Fontenelle park at 3:30
p. m., the Fontenelle Reserves will
do battle with the Dundee Woolen
Mills. This game will simply be a
practice argument, during which both
squads will ascertain the ability of
their new candidates.
Son of Ex-President Is
Regular on Yale Eleven
Charley Taft, the son of ex-President

berth on the Yale varsity eleven
this season. Taft alternated between
the line and the backfield last year.

of his more experienced teammates
and is batting properly. He is now
willing to wait 'em out a bit and in
stead of putting everything he has
into a mighty hit-or-miss swing, hits
scientifically. He times the ball nice
ly and meets it as it should be met
to get the greatest results. As a
consequence he is hitting them out
far and every once in a while getting
a homer, than which Benny likes
nothing better.
The improvement in the ex-Federal
is one of the big things McGraw
banks on for the success of his team
in the year to come.
Holke is another bright prospect.
Just now he is playing like a veteran
and hitting like a Cobb or Speaker.

Farmer Burns Puts
One Over on Swarm
Of Greek Grapplers
There is a rural platitude to the ef
fect that you can't keep a squirrel on
the ground. It is likewise a certainty
that Farmer Burns is going to bob up
with some of his spectacular stunts
about once ever so often. Here's a
story they are telling on the Farmer.
Gus Tylee says the Farmer hasn't
been out of Omaha for three weeks,
so we can vouch for the accuracy of
the yarn, but it's a good story any
way, so here it is.
A county fair at Leon, la., had at
tracted a group of Greek 'rasslers.
The noble and tin-eared sons of Milti
ades were throwing everybody at $25
a heave and offering a purse to any
one who could stick twenty minutes.
There were four or five of them and
they did a good business, as the rural
Iowan always thinks he is a warm
doll at 'rassling. The hicks were flat
tened out like -a ball of soft putty
dropping from a twenty-story tower
to a concrete sidewalk.
Finally an old heavily mustached
rube came along and challenged the
outfit. He threw the noble Greeks
as fast as they could get up, with
everything from hip locks to toeholds.
An hour later another veteran, but
smoothshaven, showed up and
dumped the entire works again like
a scared bull going through the stor
age room of a paper box factory.
It was Farmer Burns. He would
have come back the third time, but
couldn't find a wig.
Omaha Fans Pick
Red Sox to Win in
The World Series
Omaha base ball fans who follow
the major league races are inclined
to name the Boston Red Sox in their
predictions as to which team will win
the 1916 world's series. No matter
which club wins the National league
rag it is the prevailing opinion. that
Carrigan's crew will clean up in the
big event. Dr. E. R. Tarry, a world's
series fan, who says he intends to
attend the one this year if it is pos
sible, picks Boston to win. Al Drey
foos, who was a fan before they were
holding world's scries, gives the odds
to the Red Sox. Marty Krug and Pa
Rourke favor the New Englandera.
Tommy Toy believes the bean town
will repeat, as does Claude Bossie.
Harry Wymore, Phil McShane and
others. A believer in the National
league is a scarce article in Omaha.
Creighton to Play
Alumni on Saturday
Creighton will inaugurate the 1916
foot ball season next Saturday with
a conflict with a team composed of
Alumni of the blue and white school.
The old grad team promises to be
a whirlwind if al the former gridiron
stars can be persuaded to don the
moleskins once more. Jack Shannon,
Jack Welch. Eddie Creighton, Bill
Callahan, Herb Rogers, Jap Tami
sea, Dan Butler, Phil McShane and
several others have been asked to
take part in the doings. Whether
they' will take a chance is open to
argument, but no matter a full eleven
will be on hand to oppose the var
sity. The proceeds of this game will be
turned over to the Creche and the
St. James orphanage and patronesses
of these twn institutions are working
hard to get up a crowd.

lished himself firmly in popularity
with Manhattan fans. He is a na

up base ball as a profession by play

is called the Trolley league.
From that small organization he
drifted to the Three-I league, where
his gqpd playing attracted the atten

club, who secured his services.
Two years ago Dick Kinsella, then
scout for the Giants, unearthed Holke
and recommended him to Manager

DRAKE TO BE FIRST
HUSKER OPPONENT
i
First Test of New Coach's
Work Arouses Interest of
Nebraska Foot Ball Fans.
STYLE OF PLAY IS NEW
By JAMES E. LAWRENCE.
Lincoln, Sept. 30. (Special.) The
1916 Husker foot ball team, under
the guidance of Dr. E. J. Stewart,
the new Nebraska coach, will re
ceive its first baptism of fire next
Saturday with a Missouri Valley con
ference eleven as its foe.
The Drake Bulldogs are coming to
Lincoln to usher in the season and
arc bringing a practically unknown
eleven. Jumbo Stiehm's proteges tied
several kinks in the Bulldog last sea
son to a score of 48 to 13.
Affording as it does the first test
of the new coach's work the game is
being looked forward to with a great
deal of concern. So far in practice
the Huskers have not looked the
part of a championship eleven. Their
work against the freshmen and scrubs
has been ragged and spotted, with
the back field situation giving the
gravest concern to Husker rooters.
The workout Thursday night was the
most satisfactory of any of the sea
son, with the varsity plugging through
the heavy freshmen line for six touch
downs. The Huskers were outplayed
last week and for the three opening
days' practice this week by the first
year men.
New Style of Play.
It must be recalled at the same
time that Nebraska was undertaking
a style of play entirely different
than that employed by the Stiehm
regime. The fourteen veterans of
the squad practically had to start at
the bottom and it is not surprising
that the team has shown exceeding
ly ragged in the opening scrimmages.
These have served to show there is
plenty of driving power in Dr. Stew
art's line and it is only the back
field, underweight and lacking a real
star of Rutherford's or Chamberlain s
ability, which give concern.
The men have been shifted consid
erably and this has also tended to re
tard the early season progress. Otou
palik, a fullback, and Maloney, who
plays center, have shifted to ends and
are trying to conquer their new duties.
Quarterback position has been elimin
ated and the center is supposed to
get into the interference, leaving the
line of scrimmage and depending
upon the two guards to plug the hole
in the middle of the line. It has been
these changes which held the Husk
ers back during the first two weeks
and the men are still shaky in their
work, but ore improving.
Moter Will Start
Ellsworth Moser, former Omaha
high school star, and veteran cen
ter last season, will undoubtedly start
against Drake. Cameron, who played
so brilliantly at center and tarkle two
years ago, is still out of the lineup as
a result of injuries.
Dale and Wilder and the two Ko
siizkys are b'ing worked at guard.
Dale is a bear on defense, the most
powerful man in the university. The
guard positions, with these four big
fellows fighting hard for jobs, promise
to work out better than was expected.
Captain "Tim" Corey and big Ed
Shaw are playing the two tackles in j
mid-season form and the pair should
have the best season in their careers. I
Corey is of all western calibre and
Shaws ranks only a few points under
him. i
Ted Riddell is being watched at
end. He is the fastest man on the
team, a powerful fellow and one with I
great possibilities. He will come !
closer to filling Chamberlain's shoes
than any other man and his friends
are anxiously waiting to see if he
takes full advantage of his opportu
nities. Jimmie Gardiner, Doyle, Rhodes
and Cook will probably start the

out to the Rochester club. He was
not recalled this spring from the up
state club and continued with that
club this year.
During 1915, while under the man
agement of John Ganzel, Holke de
veloped amazingly and became ripe
for the big league class this year,
and was bought outright by the New
York club before Merkle was traded
for Lew McCarty.
Holke was originally a right-handed
batter, but was induced to shift
to the left-handed style by Mike
Donlin on the northern trip of the
Giants' second team in 1915.
Kauff and Holke have by their
grand all-round playing become most
important factors in the Giants' most
recent drive.
game in the backfield. Rhodes is
the only new man of the bunch, but
he appears to be more shifty in ad
vancing the ball than some of the vet
erans. He is a more powerful man,
weighing 170 pounds, and so far he
has looked mighty good. Cook has
flit on weight and tips the scales at
75 pounds. Caley, the other veteran
quarter, is out of the game with in
juries and will probably not start at
all. Some twisted muscles kept him
out of scrimmage all week.
Dr. Stewart is anxious to get a line
on as many of his men as possible
and unless Drake proves to he an
exceptionally hard nut to crack he
will use as many players as possible.
Impressed With Stewart.
The Husker! are distinctly im
pressed with Dr. Stewart at the end
of his first two weeks with the squad.
He is the finest student of the game
the Huskers have had since Fielding
Yost't days. He is extremely pain
staking in teaching the finer points
and the instruction is beginning to
show.
Nebraska co-eds are going to have
soccer foot ball, the first game being
scheduled for next Monday morning
at 11 o'clock on the university field.
Jumbo Stiehm gave soccer a workout
for the foot ball men as a condi
tioner, but it didn't prove successful.
The co-eds seem to like the game,
however, and have been given the use
of the field three mornings each
week. '
As soon as it progresses far enough
a tournament will be held to decide
the championship. Miss Ina Gittings
is in charge, with Dr. Clapp andj
Coach Stewart assisting. '
Bill Hokuff Tackles
Joe Stecher at York
Joe Stecher and Big Bill Hokuff of
Omaha will collide in a wrestling
match at York Wednesday night as
the feature attraction of the fall fes
tival at York this week. Stecher and

felt the touch of shoulder and mat in
quick time, but this time he says he
knows more about the w. k. scissors
and promises to stand the Dodge lad
off until he at least knows he has been
in a mix.

Bought by Fairfield Man.
WON 25 STRAIGHT RACES
By RUSSELL PHELPS.
The sale of, Jim O'Shea, a one-time
bright star on the western turf and
a pretty dangerous stepper still,
marks the passing from an Oinahan's
hands of a horse known throughout
this section of the country a horse
who in his time has paced, trotted
and in other ways circled mile and
half-mile track! in a fashion to be
given credit for having won around
$25,000 in purses in the last seven
years, his racing career to date.
He was sold by his owner, Fred
Myers, a well known Omaha horse
man, to Ray Stufft of Fairfield, Neb.
Though other horses about these
parts have won more nurses than Jim
O'Shea, there are hardly any of the
harness performers better known-
tor more ways than one.
Jim had, and perhaps still has, the
unfortunate habit of being erratic,
oh, so erratic, at times. With the
odds in favor of him and apparently
in good form, old Jim would suddenly
get it into his vicious old bonnet that
lie was destined to start something-
ana start something he would.

Cool Weather Starts the

Omaha duck hunters are beginning
to exhibit a little enthusiasm. The
cool weather of the last week has
started the ducks in targe numbers,
according to reports from the state
and the Omaha marksmen are begin
ning to feel an itch in the trigger

feathery tribe has been reported from
almost every shooting station in the
state the last few days and if the

will miss the Ak-Sar-Ben doings this
week.
