SMITH AND BROKAW
WIN FORROURKLETS
Puncture Musser's Emery Ball
for Six Hits and Give
Omaha Victory, Five
to Three.
Paul Musser's surreptitious emery
ball is no puzzler to Earl Smith and
Hal Brokaw. Conclusive evidence of
this assertion is contained in the story
of Omaha's victory over Des Moines
yesterday, 5 to 3.
Earl and Hal are the lads who won
the conflict for our terriers. Smith
made four hits, including a home run
and a triple, and Brokaw made two.
Smith made two of the five runs and
so did Brokaw. It was Smith who
hammered out the hits that enabled
Brokaw to count.
Smithy opened on Musser in the
opening stanza. He cracked a triple
to center and a moment later galloped
home on a wild chuck.
Earl's auspicious start cave his
mates so much confidence and spirit
they went out and made a run them
selves. Krug walked, went to sec
ond when Hartford mussed up Brad
ley's grounder, took third when Cof
fey dropped Brottem's fly and scored
in Schick's sacrifice fly to right.
That was the only Omaha counter
Smith and Brokaw failed to help
manufacture.
In the second stanza Brokaw sin
gled to center and sneaked to second
on Spencer's wide throw to the dia
mond. He was sacrificed to third by
Merz and scored on Smith's single to
center.
Hits Ball Over Fence.
Hal and Earl waited until the sev
enth before further damaging the
reputation of Mr. Musser. In that
-UtH psutru jsoiUE Mojojg ezuets
ford with a drive to short. Bruce got
out of the way and t:,us saved a leg
or an arm for himself. Merz sacri
ficed and a moment later Smith boost
ed the pill over the right field wall for
a circuit drive. .
While all this was going on Otto
Merz kept the Boosters in order by
allowing but five hits. The quintet of
blows netted the coon creekers three
tallies.
Cass' single and steal in the first
followed by a sacrifice and a wild
pitch scored one for the enemy. A
walk, force out and Spahr's double
counted another in the fifth and in
the ninth Sweeney poled a home run
over the right field fence for the third
Des Moines tally.
The last game of the Omaha-Des
Moines series will be played today,
starting at 3:15.

Notes of the Fray
Marty O'Toole will hurl today.
Coffey lent Breen tn to pinch hit In the
ninth ao Men fanned him.
Although he couldn't atop Brokaw and
.Smith, Musser had Brottem guessing. Tony
whiffed three tiroes,
Kruv switched the lineup all around for
luck. Apparently It worked. Smith went
to the lead-off position and batted a thou
aand. Just before the game Pa Rourke was ad
vlsed the weather man had predicted fair
and warmer weather. "It a lie," he ex
claimed. The Hourkes hit the road for a trip of
two weeks after today's game, so fans will
have their last chance for some time to tee
our heroes in action.
Brokaw subbed In center for Shag Thomp
ton. who la suffering from a boll and a bo re
hoof. It might be said Hal did a pretty
good Job of subbing.
Des Moines put up some mcasy ball In the
first two stanza,, making two errora in
'rh frame, but the Booaters settled down
us the game progressed.
Musser made a motion that should have
been counted as at least seventeen balks,
but as we perhaps have mentioned before,
there la m such thing as a balk In the
Western deague.
The Rouifees stopped the game time and
satiT to Insist that Musser was throwing
the emery ball, but Miller refused to admit
It. Toward the latter part of the game,
however, he did pocket one of the balla.
In addition to his three hits which count
ed In the scoring Smith garnered a single
In the fourth. In the second he put the
ball over the fence, but ft fell foul a few
inches. Bo he was content with a single In
this frame and poatponed the circuit drive
until the aeventh. Hunter didn't even go
back on the homer. It was such a long, hard
rive.

salary Wagner will receive under the

that I may play with my old club to

Marin Plestina, Omaha heavy
weight grappler, who went to San
Francisco in May to wrestle Ad Sin
tel, is coming home.
After beating Santel Plestina re
mained on the coast in the hope that
he might land another match or two.
But after the coast crop of wrestling
persons watched Marin maul Santel
around the ring they decided they
wanted none of his game and the
Omaha man couldn't even get them to
speak to him on the street, they were
so careful to avoid him.
Plestina remained on, however, in
the hope of landing a match. He
stayed until after the Lewis-Zbyizko
match. But neither Lewis nor
Zbyszko wanted any of Plestina's
game and Marin decided to come
home. Coast prompters tried to match
Marin with Lewis and Zbyszko, but
both said "nay, nay." Plestina once
threw Lewis at Lexington, Ky., in
forty-three minutes.
In company with Pete Loch, his
manager, and Farmer Burns, Ples
tina intends to make a tour of Iowa
just before his clash with Henry Or
deman at the Omaha Auditorium July
4. The Omaha man contemplates a
tour of about two weeks and expects
to appear in all of the larger Iowa
towns, where he will rnake sweeping
challenges to all the wrestlers in the
world.

All Choked Up With Catarrh?
Why Continue Makeshift Treatment?
Sprays and douches will never
cure you.
Catarrh is annoying enough when
it chokes up your nostrils and air pas
sages, causing painful and difficult
breathing and other discomforts. But
the real danger comes when it reaches
down into your lungs.
This fs why you should at once
realize the importance of the proper
treatment, and lose no time experi
menting with worthless remedies

The man who used to say, "Tell me
what you eat, and I'll tell you what you
are," might say, today, "Tell me what
yousmoke and I'll tell you whatyou are."
The man who thinks before he smokes is
very apt to select a cigar which will
afford him a highly pleasant smoke,
without the heaviness that men, less
thoughtful in their smoking, mistake
for pleasantness.
If you smoke a mild cigar of the Tom
Moore type, it is evident that you are
given to thinking first acting afterwards.
