SPLIT DOUBLE BILL
Omaha Not Able to Connect
With Bremmerhoff in
the Second Con
test. Sioux City, la., June 3. (Special
Telegram.) Pa Rourke's champions
and the Sioux City Indians divided
the bill today, the visitors annexing
the first. . to 1, and the locals the
second. 7 to 0.
The first same was a pitchers' duel,
in which Merz had the better of the
argument.
Rose, secured from Minneapolis,
pitched his first game for the Sioux
and sltowe,! up well. Ragged support
contributed to li is defeat.. Merz was
steady in the pinches and secured
errorless support.
In the third inning Burg was walked
after Merz had struck out. Krug and
Thompson singled, Burg scoring.
Krug scored on Ilungo's boot of
Smith's grounder. Omaha secured its
final score in the eighth. Smith beat
out an infifld hit and scored on Brad
ley's double to left field. A walk and
two singles produced the Indians' lone
run in the sixth.
Omaha was helpless against Brun
ncrhoff's skitters' in the second game.
Not a hit was made off the big pitcher
until the sixth. With one down, Bra
bow and O'Toole singled, but Burg
and Krug Hew out.
1 The visitors made a bid for a score
in the seventh, but a fast double play
by Elmore, unassisted, stopped the
rally. Thompson and Smith both
singled. Bradley, on a hit and run
play, shot a stinging liner to left.
Klmorc rushed in and captured the
ball and k:pt on to second, completing
the play by retiring Thompson. Sioux
C'ty won the game in the third, when
O'Toole was hit for four singles and
a double, netting five runs. A walk
and a sacrifice figured in the scoring.

League Legislation Ruled
Contrary to Agreement
Cincinnati, O.. June 2. The Na
tional Base Ball commission today
construed league legislation requiring
memhers to employ a prescribed num
ber of players without previous pro
fessional experience as sontrary to
the spirit of the national agreement,
in that ii virtually boycotts veteran
players and therefore is null and void.
Such legislation has been adopted by
many leagues as a measure of econ
omy. -

Omaha's Best-Read Base Ball
Fan Enlists in Canuck Army
William Bell, probably the best-read
base ball fan Omaha ever had, re
cently enlisted in the Canadian army
as a private.
"Billy," as he was known here,
managed the famous Holly base ball
team for years. He was also man-
Jger of several amateur foot ball
levens.
In 1916 he gave up his job with the
McGraw Electrical company and
went to Canada, where he tried for
the Royal Flying corps. Because of
his weight he was rejected. He then
enlisted in the ranks.
"Billy" was a former captain in the
Omaha high school cadet regiment.
In a letter 4o one of his friends he
has requested that he "would like as
many of the fellows as possible to
write me, William J. J. Bell, 1066290
Grey battalion, Owen Sound, Ontario,
Canada."

eral years, not a game was played
in cither major organization. New
York regained the lead position in the
National Wednesday bv defeating
Philadelphia in both holiday games.
Moran men made only nine hits in

The winning streak of the Boston
Americans was stopped at ten
straight Friday, when Cleveland shut
them out, 3. to 0. Morton allowed
only one liit. The Indians repeated
the shutout performance Saturday, 5
to 0. The stopping of the champions
and the success of Chicago during
the week cut down the lead of Barry's
men, who now arc on their home lot,
to meet the western invasion.
Washington had not won a game in
two weeks until it defeated St. Louis
Saturday. Walter Johnson suffered

Care for Veterans,
Says Commission
Cincinnati, O., June 3. (Special
Telegram.) A far-reaching decision
was handed down by the National oasc
Ball association yesterday, which
ruled that any legislation by major or
minor leagues that virtually places
a boycott on seasoned and veteran
ball players as a class or individuals,
will be construed by the commission
as contrary to the spirit of the Na
tional agreement and therefore null
and void.
The decision was in answer to re
quests from several minor league clubs
for a ruling oil the validity of league
legislation, requiring its members to
employ a prescribed number of play
ers without previous professional ex
perience. The commission regards such a
measure as predicated on economical
considerations and designed to aid a
minor club in keeping within the sal
ary limit.
The commission, however, insists
that fn the observance of the rule,
there shall be no discrimination
against experienced or veteran play
ers, who apply for employment, pro
vided they consent to contract with
a club at, or within the salary limit
effective in its league.
The commission holds that the
clause in the National agreement re
ferring to "promotion of the welfare
of ball players as a class by develop
ing and perfecting them in their pro
fession," is as applicable to the player
who is past his professional prime, as
it is to the player who is advancing
in ability.
The derision is nf vi'fal intfrott tn
the Western league, where in each
cum tne prohlem is more or less
acute.
