RODRKES RING DP
ANOTHER VICTOR
Wallop Julesbnrg, Colo., Outfit
In Sandstorm by Soore of
Sixteen to Seven.
SEASON OPENS TODAY
Julesburg, Colo., April 17. (Spe
cial telegram) Fa Rourke's hopefuls
made it ten straight victories for the
spring pre-season series by defeating
the Julesburg nine by a score of 16
to J here today, in a contact staged
jn an open lot in a Colorado sand
stornt.
Like the fray at Grand Island, to
day's clash was turned into a farce
comedy, with Cy rorsythe. the cele
brated tango kid. starring in the fea
tured roll of hurler. Cyrus had "old
Lizzie," as he calls his curved ball,
working in fine style and he made the
Julesburg sluggers keep on foot in the
water bucket all the time.
The Rourke's got away to a flying
start in the opening round by pound
in f young Pendleton who once tried
out with Omaha, for five runs. After
the third inning, when it was mam.
festly apparent the locals could not
cope with the Western leaguers, the
burlesque began, the antics of the
Rourkes keepmk the 250 or so fans
in a constant uproar.
Joe "Steeher" Chemeler, who start
ed the pitching, was the hitting star
of the matinee. The Dodge county
lad whanged out four hits, including
one homer and two doubles. Marty
King and Tony Brottem also made
four hits and a circuit clout each.
The Rourke's left Tulesbure at mid
night for Denver, where today they
open tne lyi western league season.
Otto Merz or Marty O'Toole will
do 4he twirling, whife Brotterrc will
be behind the bat, , .- '., , '

Three Ex-Husker
Gridiron Stars
' Offer to Enlist
Lincoln, April 17. (Special.) Ex
Captain Tim Corey, ex-Captain Vic
Halligan and Lum Doyle, all former
Husker gridiron stars, have offered
their services to their country.
The trio of gridiron 'stars are anx
ious to become members of the ar
tillery forces and have applied to the
War department for commissions as
lieutenants in the service. Thev
have had considerable military experi
ence and it is expected their applica
tions wi'l be favorably received.
Halligan and Corev have both fin-
ished school and are engaged in busi
ness. -Doyle is a senior in the Uni
versity Law college, but under a rul
ing of the faculty will receive his de
gree should his application be ac-
ccpiea.
The war spirit is burning stronger
at the university and the enlistment
of university men promises to pick
up during the next two weeks. Over
a hundred of the cadets have indi
cated they will offer their services
before the close of school and nearly
as many in the engineering depart
ments have already taken steps to
join" the army ot industrial workers.
