PA ROURKE SIGNS
HEW FIRST SACKER
Hemiing, Once With Green
Bay, Reports and Is Given
0. K. by Krug.
SABBATH NO DAY OF REST
Pa Rourke lias signed another first
Backer so that if Jake Holilerman
finds himself unable to play ball this
J'ear owing to the fact that he is a
member of the government's medical
reserve corps, the Omaha club will be
complete anyhow.
The new first baseman answers to
the name of Henning. He was ob
tained for Rourke by Charlie Moll,
owner of the Winnipeg club, which
delivered Hal Erokaw to Omaha, but
hasn't been able to deliver Benton yet.
Henning was formerly with Green
Bay in the defunct Wisconsin-Illinois
league. Moll was president of the
league then. When the W-I loop
aviated, Henning quit base ball, but
when Rourke sent out the. S. O. S.
for a first baseman Moll got in touch
with Henning and induced him to
come to Omaha.
Moll declares Henning is the goods
and Marty Krug declared after look
ing him over that he looked like he
would deliver. Henning reported
yesterday and worked out with the
rest of the hired hands.
The Sabbath was no day of rest
for the Rourklets. Krug had, his
Charges out for an hour and a half.
With the -weather as tine as it was
yesterday, Marty did not intend to
lose a single day.
Today practically all of the Rourkes
will be in camp. Hal Brokaw and
Johnny Watkins are due tip from
Kansas City and Wayne Barham is
also carded to arrive.
Krug will work his athletes pretty
hard this week if the weather con
tinues good, because he has a game
scheduled with the Brandeis semi-pro
team for next Sunday.
The work of clearing the field of
lee started yesterday. The winter
snows left a lot of ice on the south
part of the field under the shadow of
the grandstand, this will all be
cleared out by today or tomorrow
and the boys will be able to work out
in the infield by Tuesday or Wednes
day. Dailey and Pesek
To Wrestle at Minden
Kearney, Neb., March 25. (Spe
cial.) Owen Dailey, who lays claim
to the lightweight wrestling cham
pionship of the world, and Charley
Pesek, the Shelton mat artist, who
has been forging to the front so
steadily in recent months, are
matched to meet in a finish go at M in
dent next Tuesday. The men met be
fore and Dailey was awarded the de
cision on points, a decision which was
highly unsatisfactory to the Shelton
man and his friends. The result is
that another match was arranged, and
this time to a finish, and because of
the feeling existing between the par
ticipants the bout is expected to be a
lively one.

About a dozen sailors attached to
