JOE B0R6 BIG AID
IN OMAHA VICTORY
Former Rourke Disguises Him
self as Miner and Helps
Hand Game to Pa's
Pets, 8 to 3.
The Rourkes took an unfair advan-
walloped his Joplin Miners, 8 to 3.
The unfair advantage was that the
Rourkes had ten players while Joplin
only had eight. Joe Burg, disguised
as a Miner, was one of the stars of
the game for the Rourkes.
It took the Rourkes one inning to
get together, but when they did decide
to play a little base ball, they exhib
ited "an a No. 1 with which the Miners
could not cope.
Joplin made three runs in the open
ing stanza, because the Rourkes evi
dently didn't realize they were in a
game. Jim Park fanned Carlisle, the
first man up, but Burg clouted a high
fly to ' left center. Thompson told
Miller to get it, but Ward couldn't
reach itJo Joe got a double. Cochran
walked. Metz sent a drive against the
right field fence for two bases, scor
ing Burg and Cochran. Cochran had
no business to score on the drive, but
l did. Also Metz should only have made
one base instead of two. The relay
was slow. Lamb hit a grounder to
Nye. Nye turned around to see where
Metz was, but Metz had already
sneaked by and Lamb beat Nye's late
throw to first. Davis' sacrifice fly to
Thompson scored Metz.
Allows One Hit.
That ended it for the Miners. From
that period on the Kourkes played
ball. In the remaining eight ipnings,
Jim Park allowed but one hit and only
walked one man. Not a Miner saw
the light of day at second base after
that first round.
The Rourkes got going in the sec-
infield out and Nye's single 6corcd
' " One.
Burg gave us three runs in the
fourth. Ben Shaw, first up, was safe
on Joe's error. Yardley beat out a
bunt. Brottem and Thompson went
out, but Burg erred again on Nye's
grounder, filling the bases. Sanders
was so worried he walked Par, forc
ing Shaw over the plate and Phil
Cooney was on the job with a neat
pinch single to center which scored
Yardley and Nye. t
. Nye is Beaned.
A walk to Miller, Shaw's single, and
Yardley 's sacrifice put Miller on third
in the fifth. He scored when Sanders
hit Nye in the bean with a pitched
ball with the bases full.
Brottem and Thompson walked to
start the seventh. Nye fanned, but
Park sent' a single to right, scoring
Park galloped to third when Davis
made a wide throw to the plate.
Cooney's single scored Park.
The Rourkes and Miners clash again
today at Rourke park, starting at
.3:15.

Will Adams Withdraws
From Iowa State Meet
Des Moines, la., Aug. 13.- Word
that Will Adams of Omaha, Iowa
state champion, will not come to Des
Moines to defend his title in the an
nual tournament which began yester
day on the courts of the Gptf and
Country club caused considerable dis
appointment here.
However, Joe Adams, a brother of
the champion, who is stationed at
Camp Dodge, is expected to compete
along, with a quartet of other Omaha
players who arrived today, but played
no matches'.
, Indications are that the Omaha
stars will have some stiff competition
in the first round. Ralph Powell is
paired with Paul White of Cedar
Rapids, Ralph Rainey will clash with
George Baker, and Percy Bannister
will play the Rev. Scott Smith of
Cedar Rapids. The other Omaha en
try is George Riley.
With Walter T. Hayes of Chicago,
T. E. Mussellmarf of Quincy, W. F.
Winterble of Primghar and Fred
Bradley of Dcs Moines in the meet the
competition is guaranteed to be keen.
Normal School Would Join
In South Dakota Athletics
Aberdeen, S. D., Aug. 13. (Spe
cial.) The Northern normal and in
dustrial school will try to obtain
membership in the South Dakota
Athletic association when it meets
at Huron in September. The school
is not now a member of the associa
tion, which is composed of the colleges
of the state and the state university.
The most important work of the
Huron meeting is to decide whether
to eliminate football from the col
leges this fall. Because of the gen
eral interest in the war and the fact
that many college athletes are going
to the front, some of the college
authorities favor the elimination of
the sport during the war.
Bout to Decide Middle
Weight Title Scheduled
Milwaukee, Wis., Aug. 13. Harry
Greb of Pittsburgh, and Jeff Smith
of Bayonne, N. J., were matched to
day to meet in one of the elimination
bouts to decide the middleweight
title. They will fight here in Sep

SOUTH SIDE
WOMEN MUST HELP
IN FIGHTFOR RIGHT
Service, Sacrifice and Obedi
ence Necessary, Mrs. Mary
Howe Tells South Side
Conservation Women.
'"An army fights on its belly,'"
said Mrs. Mary Howe, in an address
to the South Side women in the in
terest of food conservation at the
library hall yesterday afternoon,
"And we women of America must
get together and see that our soldiers
get food. This is a time to think
of others.! Service, sacrifice and
obedience are needed. For the first
time in the history of the world the
women and chMdren have been called
to aid in preserving democracy. We
have heard the call and we shall not
be found wanting. We shall hold to
gether in sincerity of purpose until
the ideals for which our forefathers
died, are secure."
Mayor Dahlman was present ind
spoke.
"If we do not win this contest
across the water, God only knows
what misery we shall meet if the
enemy ever reaches our shores," said
Mayor Dahlman. "We have not yet
started to sacrifice. It is the duty
of ui who stay at home to give to the
boy in uniform everything we can.
Kvery bov w ho puts on a uniform and
goes forth to shed his blood upon
the field of battle does more than
any man or woman who stays at
home ran possibly do. It is our task
to take care of the food of the na
tion. We must conserve it. We must
drv all surplus fruits and vegetables.
We can send them, if need be. in
submarines, to our boys in the
trenches.
Food Expert Talks.
Mrs. Harriet MacMurphy, food ex
pert, told how foods arc conserved.
"1 have successfully dried thirty
different kinds of food," said Mrs
MacMurphy. "And the process does
not lessen their food value in the
least."
She told of food conditions in
Europe and impressed the women
with the need of food conservation.
Mr. Schrieber, chairman of the
Omaha Welfare board, told the wom
en of the municipal evaporating plant
at the Central Park school and offered
to do all he can toward the building
of a plant in the South Side.
Mrs. William Berry, MX) houtu
Twenty-sixth street, was chosen chair
man ot the soutn Side women in tins
movement and the work will be taken
ud through the various organizations
and other meetings will be held soon.
Police Doubt Suicide
Of Mike Javremovich
South Side police are inclined to be
lieve that there may be "a nigger in the
wood pile" in connection with the
death of Mike Javremovich, who was
found dead in the basement of his
soft drink place at 2717 Q street early
Sunday morning. A gun was lying
beside him and there was a bullet hole
in the right side of the head near
the temple. Police at first thought
that it was a suicide.
Mike Radish, who looked for
Javremovich and who reported his
death to the police, is being held for
investigation. Officers say that they
think Radish knows more about the
shooting than he is willing to tell.
Radish reported that he had come
home from the horns of friends at 6
o'clock Sunday morning. He called
up the police station at 6:45. He said
that he was talking to Javremovich
in the soft drink place at 11:45 Sat
urday night. John Elko, 2725 Madison
street, was with him at that time.
Some colored people who live near
where the dead man was found, re
ported to the police that they heard
two 6hots about midnight Saturday
night.
Javremovich was found lying on an
old mattress in the basement of his
soft drink establishment and three
shots had been fired from the revolver
which was lying beside him.
The dead man's safe will be opened
tomorrow and that may give a clu to
the motive for the shooting.

Corn Continues Tumble; v
Expected to Drop to $1s
The belief that the government Is
soon to take over the surplus stocks
of grain, fix the prices and dictate the
distribution caused all kinds of cash,
grain to continue on the toboggan to
day, Oh the Omaha market cash
corn was hardest hit, dropping 1416
cents a bushel. Sales were made at
$1.651.75 for No. 2 yellow and white,
respectively, whereas the same grades
Saturday sold at $1.81(&1.9Q a bushel.
Corn receipts today were 257 car
loads; but at the close of the ex
change most of it was unsold.
The decline of 15(016 cents a bushel
on corn prices today followed a de
cline of 50 cents last week, making
a total drop of 6566 cents in the
last ten days and, according to most
of the dealers, the end is natyet,.,;
the government in full control of
the surplus and speculation entin
eliminated, some of the leading ope
tors in cash corn say that they wou
not be surprised to sec the cereal g
to $1 a bushel.
Wheat receipts were but six car
loads. None of this was sold, hold
ers refusing to accept the bids, which
were 7(ffil0 cents under the prices of
Saturday, when sales were'made at

Paawelt in serretat v of the Iowa Press
association. He will give only part
time to the work tor tne rseorasKa as
sociation, and will continue his work
with the Iowa editors as usual.
His work here will be to put on a
nieinhrrthin ramnaipn and build UD
the Nebraska association to a stronger
body, and at the same time put it in
shape to handle some big propositions
that are really worth while for tne.
editors of the state. The editors feel
that too long they have been drifting
along in the asscciation with annual
meetinss. which were more of social
gatherings than business meetings. It
is proposed now to raise trie dues to
$10 a year for editors in a town of
over 1,000 inhabitants, and $5 a year
for those in a town of under 1,000.
The former dues were $2 a year. The
new and increased dues are expected
to build up a more substantial fund in
the treasury with which the editors
will be able to take hold of some mat
ters which they consider of impor
tance to the trade.
