THE BEE: OMAHA. MONDAY, APRIL 2, 1917. BRINGING UP FATHER McManus . ' - ' . " '.l ROURKES BARELY -SfiUEEZEODT WIN Leaguers Capture Opening Fray of Season From Bran deis, 4 to 3. WOODRUFF'S BAT BOTHERS A couple of hundred brave and dar ing fans giggled derisively in the face of pneumonia yesterday afternoon to give Pa Rourkes' 1917 hopefuls the visual forward and back when they made their first appearance of the sea son in a nine-round tangle wtih Fred Bradford's Brandeis pets. The leaguers escaped wjth the combat 4 to i and the bugs were satisfied even though half frozen. Krug's hirelings sneaked over the victory because Eddie Hazen. con verted from an outfielder into a hurler, got away to a bad start in the first two spasms, . lhe Kourkes as sembled two runs in each frame which gave them enough to capture the Sab bath pastime by the one-run margin. Hazen couldn't locate the plate for Joe Burg, the hrst man to tace him m the opening stanza, and Burg drew a pass to first. Marty Krug sacrificed him to sejnd after which Shag Thompson straighened one of Eddie's curves into a three-base blow into left center which sent Burg galloping Home. Uak Henning slammed a hot one through the box. Hazen stopped it enough for George Graham to scoop it up and throw Henning out, but Thompson came home on the play Graham Makes Boot. Hazen smeared Hal Brokaw in the slats to open the second stanza. Irelan sacrificed and Brottem flew out to Lawler. But Graham made a two base wild heave after fielding Carrie's grounder. Brokaw scooted home on the play and Currie romped to sec ond before Clink Claire could recover the pill. Krug sailed a double into left scoring Currie. That ended the counting for the Rourkes. Hazen refused to permit anv more scoring in the next two rounds and Morrie Olson, who took; tip the hurling job in the nttn, man t allow a run and only permitted one hit in the four innings he worked. Murphy Currie started the game for Omaha. He performed in fine fashion. Claire made a two-bagger to right which Cy Forsythe almost reached and he scored on Woodruff's single to center. This was the only run and the only hits Currie allowed in three innings. He whiffed four men. No Hits Off Men. Otto Mcrz pitched the subsequent three frames and had the Brandeis helpless. He retired the semi-pros three in a row in each inning. Wayne Barham, hurling the last three innings, found the going rough. In the seventh he was nicked for two hits and as many runs. Graham walked to start the frame and Lawler singled to right. Synek flew out to Thompson and Novitsky whiffed, but Woodruff reefed a triple into left, scoring Graham and Lawler. Two hits and a walk filled the bases on Barham in the ninth, but he pulled out of the hole, but forcing Pete Lyck to fly out to left. The Rourkes played a nifty fielding game, making nary an error. Their hitting was nothing to brag about, but .it's early yet and the play yesterday was unusually good considering the early date. Score: OMAHA. BRANDEIS. AB.H.O.A.E. AB.H.O.A.E.

Joe Stecher, who returned recently from a trip to California, is training at his home in Dodge for the go with Caddock at Omaha, April 9. Stecher says he was never in bettc. condition and will go on the mat prepared to make short work of the lowan. The report that Frank Gotch is training Caddock seems to be causing Stecher but little worry. "I will be a trifle heavier than I have ever been before when I step on the mat", the sojourn in California having added about four pounds to my weight,!' Joe said. "But that will be a help to me. I know Caddock is a fast man, but I am confident that I will beat him in a short time if he gets in and wrestles." Stecher is being groomed by Brother Anton. & Stecher says an effort to get him to sign for a match with Lewis in San Francisco has been made by Pro moter Schuler of tha: place. "I will meet Lewis in Omaha or no place because I think that I owe it to the fans to stand out for the match where we went to a draw nearly two years ago." ' R.

Five Amer ican citizens were among the 285 prisoners captured by a new Ger man raider off the eleven ships it sank in the Atlantic. The raider is the vessel Seeadler of about 2,800 tons. It is a three-masted, square rigged ship with a speed of twelve knots. It carries a powerful wire less plant News of the raider was brought here by the French bark Cambronne, which had on board the crews of the ships sunk by the raider. When it left Germany its guns were concealed in the hold, while it was running the British blockade. The Seeadler has two gasoline launches which also were hidden in the hold during the first part of the voyage. Gives Each Certificate. After the Seeadler was on the high seas its guns were mounted. They were placed on the forecastle and the gun ports were maskcej. The raider's commander presented to the captain of each ship he sank an engraved certificate setting forth the circumstances under which the vessel was destroyed. The names of the American citizens from the crews of sunken vessels brought by the Cambronne, so far as is known, are as follows: , Roy Clark of Virginia, from th British sailing vessel, British Teoman. John Rondonl of California, from the British Teoman. Luther Leaflets of Ohio, from the British sailing vessel Plnmore, Ernest Rsy Gilbert of Washington, from ths Plnmore. Manuel Ouerrero of Manila (no ship given). Life passed pleasantly on board the raider, the released men report. The sailors had a band which played fre quently and enthusiastically, when the men were off duty. Their orches tra was composed of three mando lins, three violins, a flute and a base drum. The Germans treated their priso ners relatively well, this was largely from the fear that their own capture was ultimately almost certain. The raider is slow and they expected to be overtaken at almost any time. Their feeling apparently was that if the prisoners spoke well of their treatment the chances of the raider's crew at the hand of possible captors would be just so much better. Espe cial consideration according to the sailors, seemed to be given the Ameri cans among the captives on the raider. Eleven ships were sunk by the raider before the Cambronne was sent to Rio Janeiro with the crews. Rival Organizations Plan Demonstrations in Capital New York, April 1. Definite steps were taken here for a "Pilgrimage of Patriotism" to Washington Monday, when a citizens' committee, headed by Charles S. Fairchild, who was secre tary of the treasury in President Cleveland's cabinet, was formed to make the necessary arrangements. The emergency peace federation an nounced that at least 15,000 persons are expected to take part in the peace demonstration at Washington Mon day.
