CUB SCRUBS FALL
BEFORE ROURKLETS
Krug's Men Make Hits Count
and Mark Up 4 to 2 Vic
tory Over Chicago.
BURG MAKES TWO DOUBLES
The Chicago Cub second team is
said to be as good as the first team,
but it istVt as good as Omaha. The
Rourkes conclusively proved this
point yesterday afternoon by admin
istering a 4-to-2 lacing to the said
Cub seconds.
A southpaw gent by the name of
Reuther was on the firing line for
the Cublcts. Reuther is a descendant
of the kaiser. This may have had
something to do with the walloping.
The timely bingles in each pf the
following rounds third, sixth and
seventh proved the undoing of Reu
ther and his comrades.
In the third Joe Burg started the
bombardment with a ripping double
to center. Irelan grounded out, but
Shag Thompson drew a walk. Pickles
Dilhoefer, almost a second Ray
Schalk, but not quite, uncorked a
wild heave into left field in a futile at
tempt to catch Burg off third. Joe
romped home and Thompson startled
the Cubs by chasing to third on the
play. The Cubs thought Ty Cobb
had rung in on them when they saw
Shag negotiate third as well as sec
ond. Then Marty Krug busted a single
to right and Thompson counted.
The Cubs put over a run in the fifth
on a hit and steal by Schick and a
single by Hunter, but this only served
to urge the Rourkes on. They
marked again in the sixth when Shag
Thompson beat out a bunt, was sacri
ficed to second, took third on a
passed ball and scored on Brottem's
single to center.
Cecil Makes Long Run.
Brokaw singled to open the sev
enth. He was forced at second bv
Cecil Thompson, after which Cecil
gave an exhibition of long distance
sprinting by tearing all the way home
on Burg's double to left.
The Cubs scored their ctffjer run in
the eighth on hits by Benton and
Schick and Marty Krug's error.
Marty O'Toole hurled the first
five innings of the game in fine style.
Cecil Thompson pitched just as good
ball during the tail-end four frames.
Hal Brokaw leaped into the spotlight
by catching a couple of long foul
flies to left in sensational fashion
after long runs.
Today the Kansas City American
association club clashes with the
Rourkes at Rourke park. The game
starts at 3 o'clock. Score:
OMAHA. CHICAGO.

Melady Offers Big
Purse for Another
Londos-Pesek Bout
Jim Londos and John Pesek may
clash in a third match as a preliminary
to the Stecher-Caddock bout at the
Auditorium Monday night.
Gene Melady yesterday offered a
$300 purse for the event to be divided
winner-take-all or any way the com
batants desired. Londos immediately
accepted and also declared that if
Pesek in addition cared to tackle a
$500 side beti he would be accom
modated. Londos and Pesek first met in the
semi-windup to the Stecher-Peters go
in Omaha in February. They went
twenty minutes without a fall. Last
Wednesday night they again tangled
in Shelton, Neb., Pesek's home town.
Londos lost on a foul after thirty
seven minutes.
Londos insists he did not foul
Pesek. Chris Jordan, who travels with
Londos, makes the same assertion and
declares that when he attempted to
climb into the ring to inquire why the
referee declared Pesek the winner, he
was forcibly restrained. He says a
score of Pesek followers grabbed him
and held him back.
Londos is more than eager to meet
Pesek again. He savs he will iumo
at the Melady offer. He also says
Sioux Falls promoters want to stage
a go between him and Pesek and that
he is willing on any basis. Ill even
give my share of the proceeds to
charity to wrestle him," says Londos.
"All I want to do is get him in a ring
again."

America's Entry
In War Stimulates
Reform in Germany
Copenhagen (Via London.), April
6. America's entry into the war evi
dently has had an immediate and
strong effect upon the reform move
ment in Germany. The conviction
that the instant modernization of the
Prussian constitution and the procla
mation of a more democratic basis of
government and diplomacy in the em
pire without waiting for the end of
the war is necessary as a military and
political measure to counteract the
"tempest of the world's public opin
ion," as the Vorwaerts puts it, is evi
dently gaining ground in all except
reactionary circles.
The demand that Germany follow
the example of Austria-Hungary and
declare itself in favor of a peace with
out annexation is heard from moder
ate liberal as well as from socialist
quarters. This demand no longer rep
resents alone tne beiiet ot many
thinking persons that annexation, ex
cept for slight frontier alterations,
would be against the real interests of
Germany, but also the realization that
after the United States joined the
ranks of the enemy the time had
passed when Germany could hope to
dictate terms of peace or even mod
erate terms.
The Associated Press correspond
ent heard this view in even gloomier
terms from various sides in Germany
at the time of the rupture of relations
between the United States and Ger
many, namely, that if the United
States decided to take an active part
in the war Germany could no longer
hope to gain a victory, but, after hold
ing out for a year and a half or two
years, must inevitably submit to the
economic pressure of the blockade.
