While Callahan's Double and

In the presence of President Dicker
ion and owners , of Western league
clubs, the Omaha baseball club sang
the "swan son" of the league by tak
ing both games of a double header
from St Joseph by a score of 2 to 1.
,A fair crowd was present despite the
raw, cold wind and witnessed two of
the best exhibitions seen on the local
lot this season
'- Kopp, pitching for Omaha, held
The Josies scoreless in the opening
game until the nintn inning wnen
Bluejacket, the heavy-hittiig twirler
for the visitors, started the inning by
.hitting safely. Brubaker was safe on
Vefate'a error, the only bobble of the
game. Cooney sacrificed, scoring
Bluejacket. Kopp then tightened up
and ended the fracas.
Omaha scored twice in the second.
. Donica hit safe and was sacrificed
to second ' by Callahan, but was
thrown out on a fielder's choice of
OToole'a grounder to short. Defate
hit safely and scored -with O'Toole
cn McMenemy'a two-base hit. Sev
eral times later Omaha threatened to
wore, but Bluejacket tightened up in
the pinches.
Bashang opened the second game
with a single and Manager Jim Jack'
son followed suit, llolderman sac
rificed, scoring Bashang. The winning
run was pushed across in the fourth
when Callahan smashed a screaming
two-base hit to center and scored on
Delate s sinsle.
Curtis was responsible for the Jo
lies' only tally in the fifth. Murphy
singled and went to second when Ba
shang was four-balled, and scored on
Lurtis single. Merz tightened no in
the pinches and held Hanlon's pets
scoreless during the balance of the
game. J

The crowds at the various parks
could have been larger yesterday,
but what is the use of being a pessi
mist and kicking a hole through the
sky?
First base generally can be reached
by a hit, and sometimes several to
complete the circuit, arriving home
with the Quaker smile. Well, it is

O. K. and in the pink of condition,
the Murphy-Did-Its sailed into Chi
cago on firecracker day, exceedingly
dry and as hungry as bears. The
writer was not informed what was
used for a thirst quencher, but Jewel
Bert Murphy (the pride of Omaha as
a backer) sparkled through the gloom
with invitations for a swell fodder at
the La Salle hotel. In the afternoon
he packed the gang in a couple of
gas wagons, headed for the White Sox
park, where a double-header was
lamped. At eight and three-quarters
strikes the bunch hooked a steamboat
for Alma, Mich., where they played
and copped the long end of an 8 to0
score. Here are the fellows that
represented the Murphy-Did-Its at
Alma. Mich.: Kushenbcrg, Hay, Mad
den, Hazen, Krug, Moran, Corcoran,
Clair, Fcltman, Synek and Roland

Warriors Meant Business.
Evidently the Southtown warriors
meant business with the C B. Longe
ways. Anyway, they put all nine cyl
inders in action, and with such speed
they swept in enough counters to
push the pennant contenders another
step down the ladder aid incidentally
push the ham town aggregation sky
ward. Even the Krajiceks came to the
front with barrels of pepper yesterday
and the jC. B. Metcalfs were forced
to wander back across the muddy
nursing a defeat. During this jam
boree somebody thought the umpire
had a head on him like a barrel, but
he passed the censorship and will
probably be on trial again next Sun
day. It was nip and tuck between the
Holmes' White Sox and the Beselins
yesterday, the Sox finally inarching
off with one point to the good.

may be tossed out at the next meeting
of the American league.
Yesterday the feature argument of
the day was unloaded between the
J. B. Roots and the Trimble Juniors.
Although this argument was a tight
affair everyone . concerned reported
for duty with' credit marks. At that
trouble was not even borrowed. The
key to success' was slipped to tne
Roots and when the smoke cleared
away, the score, board registered 4
for the Roots and 3 for the opposi
tion. If the Trimbles could have
nailed this debate the Booster league
would again be knotted for berth one,
but now the Roots have practically
iced the pennant. ,
One Triple Play.
A triple play happened during the
tangle. One of the Roots sapped a

ED BARROW, HED
SOX LEADER, HAS
HIT HIS STRIDE
Determined and Far-Seeing,
He Has Made Good as Man

Works.
r tack w.Tnrv
International News Sports Editor.
New York, July 6. Ed Barrow ha
certainly made good as manager of
the Boston Red Sox.
"But why shouldn't Ed make
good?" asks a veteran fan. Why
shouldn't he, indeed? '
In the opinion of the old-time bug
Barrow could not have done other
wise, with an array of talent. such as
is to be found on the Red Sox and an
open pur. to back him up. i
It is the belief of the fan in ques
tion, and a good many fans, that the
ball club makes the manager rather
than the manager making the ball
club, and it all leads up to an old and
time-worn argument that has never
been satisfactorily settled.
In Barrow's case the argument that
he stepped into a berth with every
thing he could desire at his fincer
tips is practically true, yet Barrow
lacked some players who were neces
sary to make his club a winner, and
he moulded the talent he had at hand
into a winner a more consistent win.
ner than Jack Barry had last year.
Another thing in Barrow's regimt
that stands out is the fact that he
is the manager, and he has proven
it. He proved it early in the season
when, after taking on Johnny Evers,
he suddenly let the Little Trojan go
because he does not believe that two
cooks can make a batch of broth. Bar
row is the boss and the Red Sox are
winning. That's something to his
credit, isn't it?
Iron-jawed, determined, base ball
wise and far seeing, Barrow is pos
sessed of the qualifications of a win
ning leader. In addition he knows
how to handle men another big
point. Barrow may have had a world
of rich talent he certainly boasted
the greatest pitching staff in the ma
jors in Mays. Leonard, Ruth and
Bush when the season opened and
that talent has had a big share to do
with the success of the Sox, but to '
our way of thinking Barrow is get
ting the maximum amount of work
out of his team, and hat is the thing
that counts. 1
