Marty Krug ami Ward Miller . brought borne the bacon for their lit tle playmate, Marty O'Toole, yester day afternoon artel Omaha copped a ten-round fray from Joplin, 3 to 2. The game was hurling duel between Marty O'Toole and Herb Hall,, whom V John Savage believes is the classiest twirler in the Western league. Marty had an edge on his rival throughout the game and only Some ragged play ing prevented Marty from trimming Herbert in tho regulation nine stanzas. ,- , I Marty only, aljowed the Miners five hits. He did give four bases on balls Hiid one of the walks brought in a run, but he pitched a steady game ' , Hall allowed six hits and gave five bases on balls. ' - ' Yirdley Triplet. . , '- The Rottrkes got the jump on Jop lin in the second inning. After Shaw went out. Fin Yardley phed off a three-base hit to rrght center. It was some swat, and it so unnerved Hall that Herbert issued three walks in a row. Two ,of the walks choked the runway and the third forced Yardley over with', a run. O'Toole's sacrifice fly which Brokaw caught with one hand, scored Brottem, who got on bast on Hall's first pass. ' - Joplin scored two in the third stanza. A walk to Brokaw opened the round., He took second on Hall's out and third on Cochran's infield hit. ) Cochran started a steal of second and . Brottem "heaved the pill into center . Ire Id. . Brokaw scored and Cochran cntto third. He counted on Burg's sacrifice fly to Thompson. '. Stingy With Hits. From the third on the game was a deal pitcher's battle. Both O'Toole and Hall were stingy with their base hits and their, mates played nice ball behind them. In the tenth .Joplin threatened. Davis was safe on Krug's error and after Lamb whiffed, Brokaw singled to right and Hall walked, filling the base3. Then Marty pitched. He forced Cochran to pop up to Cooney , and Burg to fly out to Miller. Cooney was called out on strikes to , open Omaha's half of the tenth, but Marty Krug shot a safe drive to left. Brokaw knocked the ball down on the first bounce with one hand, but Krug took a long chanoe and raced for sec ond. He barely slid into the bag ahead of Brokaw's throw which for- tunately happened to be a little wide. Then Ward Miller sent a sizzling single down the prid base line and Krug galloped home with tbe winning '. , talk. 1 The; Rourkes ' and Miners clash again this afternoon, starting at 3:15.

Carroll, la., Friday .Omaha wrestlinar fans are looking forward to Earl Caddock's match with Clarence Eklund at Carroll. la Fri day night with considerable interest. The go with hkiuna win pe me champion's first match since his tem porary retirement from the game last June. Earl attempted so much work . . ... . . ? fu : last winrer ana tnis spring, louowing his victory over Joe btecherj that he became run down physically and was forced totake a rest. 1'hysicians ad vised a long rest, all summer, at least, but Earl was so anxious to get back into the harness that he coulun't wait until the hot months were over. So he consented to meet Eklund at Car roll duiing the county, fair there. Carl Marfisi, well known Omaha wrestling impresario, and Gene Me lady's right-hand man, has taken over the management of Eklund. Eklund has been a middleweight around Ne braska and Wyoming for several years. He was one of the best middle weights in the business. Suddenly, however, Eklund began to put on weight and he now has reached the light-heavyweight class and Marfisi does not believe he has a peer in his class. He expects to make a good showing with Caddock:. "Eklund. of course, is lighter than Caddock," said Marfisi, "but he'll give the champion a run for his money.- It will be a match, don J forget that.

Risberg was picked up on the .coast last year and came to the v hite box as a gamble. At first he was unsteady and couldn't hit. but Commy told Manager Row land to keep him on the team in definitely.
