Banner, left halfback for the South Side high school is shown receiving the ball from CaptaFn Etter on one of his line bucks which was largely
responsible for the defeat of the Central High school team in Friday's game. The wonderful interference given the backfield by the linemen is clever
ly shown by the successful manner in which they have blocked the heavier team from the Central High school.

Heinie Groh and Charley
Hickman Hit Short and Safe
Late in the season, in a game in
Cincinnati, Heinie Groh batted what
was proclaimed to be the shortest
safety since the game began. The
ball glanced off his bat. fell on the
plate, and lay there. Bill Rariden,
, who was catching, didn't see where
: the ball went, and was frantically
hunting for it while Groh skipped
to first.
' ! Charley Hickman is credited with
: the shortest two-bagger ever de
; Jivered at , Comiskey park several
--years ago. He hit one that struck
- 'Just beyond the edge of the plate,
tut, instead of staying quiet, bound
ed sharply back. The catcher tried
to grab it up and effect a putout, but
ht ball grazed his arm and leaped
i clear to the stand while Hickman
' i- kept on running. .
Under the rules, that was a fair
ball,-for the catcher had struck it
while it was still in fair ground. Al
so, under, the rules, it was not an
. "error, for the catcher merely grazed
it and had no chance to hold it
exactly : as if it had been hit to
shortstop, and just tipped the short
stop's glove. Hence it was a fair
hit, and, as Hickman never stopped
till he got to second, it had to be
counted as a double.

REDUCE OUTPUT
OF EQUIPMENT
FOR ATHLETICS
Base Ball and Foot Ball
Granted Most Leeway by
' Reason of Little Rubber
Used in Making.
New York, Oct. 5. Athletic sup
plies and equipment will face sweep
ing reductions as a result of the lat
est rulings of the war industries
board and it is not unreasonable to
expect price advances if the de
mand outstrips the supply. Restric
tions have been placed upon the
produttion of certain of the more
common sport supplies, and in other j
cases further manufacture is pro-1
hibited after the present stock of!
material in hand is exhausted.
The followers of the various
branches' of sport will Bote with in
terest that more leeway is allowed
in the matter of the base ball and
foot ball output than is the case in
tennis and golf. This is due not to
discrimination, but rather to the fact
that greater quantities of rubber are
used in the manufacture of the halls
used in these games than in base
ball and foot ball. According to
the latest ruling, not more than 40
per cent of the tennis and golf
equipment produced during the last
four months of 1917 shall be manu
factured during the final months of
the present year, la the field of
base ball and foot ball the maximum
is put at 60 per cent, which gives
a wider latitude to the producer.
Stop Making Uniforms.
In the uniforms department the
regulations specify that no material
will be availahlp after the nianu- i
facturer has used the supplies now
in stock. This will affect foot ball
and base ball to a far greater extent
than will be the case among the golf
and tennis players, for while spe
cial clothing is considered desirable
among many of the devotees of
these games, it is not absolutely ne
cessary. Because of the greater per
sonal contact in base ball and foot
ball, uniforms with special padding
and armor are not a matter of per
sonal choice, but rather essential as
a protection against bodily injuries.
During the past year the price of
new athletic equipment and repairs
to old paraphenalia has mounted in
keeping with all other commodities.
The cost of all material and labor
involved has increased as the player
of any game realizes when he takes
a tennis racquet to be restrung; a
golf club to be repaired or sport
shoes to be resoled. Under the cir
cumstances the outfitting of teams
next season, should organized sport
play be possible, will be an addi
tional tax upon the management of
such teams.
Lincoln, ieb.,Oct. 5. (Special Telegram.) The

: inaugural oi uie ivio season, ine score narcuy signines
. the superiority of the Iowa eleven for the war time Husker

.. The war note predominated at the
'game, with a much scantier crowd
than customarily ushers in the sea
son and with soldiers predominat
ing as spectators. The Nebraska
' eleven, although heavier than the
; visitors, was made up entirely of
youngsters, excepting the backfield.
.'The Iowa line played rings around
the Cornhusker forwards, out
"charged them and tore great gaps
through the first defense, through
which the Hawkeye backs darted
jfor long and consistent gains.
. For the first half, the game was
-played on fairly vfn terms. Neither
side developed a consistent drive
' and punting forced the ball back
and forth. A fumble gave the
Huskers their only chance to score
"when McMahon recovered the ball

The Hawkeyes then uucorked a

through the final three yards and a

for a few minutes gave promise of
scoring.

HUGHES LEADS
OMAHA GOLFERS
FOR CITY TITLE
Leading LaDouceur by Three
Holes, With Three-Fourths
of the Play Finished He
Appears Champ.
Jack W. Hughes, present city golf
champion, will retain his title for
another year unless some dark horse
turns up in the city golf tourney at
the Country club today and exhibits
the Chick Evans style of playing the
game. Unable to wat for the day
set for the finals in the tourney
Hughes played 18 of of his 36 holes
yesterday afternoon, turning in a
card showing he had used 82 strokes
to pocket the ball 18 times. The first
36 holes of the tourney, medal play,
were played last Sunday at the Field
club and the final 36 will be com
pleted before sundown.
A week ago Saturday Hughes, ac
companied by W. N. Chambers, W.
J. Foye. and M. H. LaDouceur stole
a march on the other entrants and
had their cards for the initial 18
holes posted when the golfers ap
peared in the early dawn to make
the rounds. The quartet repeated
the performance yesterday with the
result that LaDouceur and Foye
each turned in a score of 83, Cham
bers 84, and Hughes 82. Since it is
generally conceded that one of the
quartet will win tiie blue ribbon, the
best bet at present seems to be
Hughes, whose tota llast week was
I 162 as opposed to M. H. LaDouceur's
164, W. J Foye's 165 and Chambers'
174. Thus, Hughes lead LaDouceur
by three strokes and Foye by four.
The first two are members of the
Field club and the latter of the
Country club.
Play Starts Early.
Playing is scheduled to start early
this morning that the 36 holes may
be completed by evening. A good
gallery is expected.
All four players played far above
par, which is 71 for the course, and
several notches above bogey, which
is 79. Foye was the only one
negotiating a hole in two. This was
on the sixth hole out and was one
below par.
The scores were:

Commission Denies
Major League Salary
Before September I
.Chicago, Oct. 5. A 'sweeping rut
in against attempts of major league
base ball players to collect salaries
on contracts extending beyond Sep
tember 1, the date fixed by the gov
ernment for the suspension of pro
fessional base ball, was handed
down tonight by the National Base
Ball commission, which held such
claims to be unjustfied and illegal.
The decision was announced by
President Johnson of the American
league, a member of the commis
sion. The commission's decision was
based on the case of "Jake" Dau
bert of the Brooklyn Nationals, who
sought to collect $2,150 from the
Brooklyn club because his contract,
calling for $9,000 a season) was ter
minated on September 2. Daubert
contended that under the conditions
stipulated in his contract, which did
not expire until October 14, the
Brooklyn club could not have re
leased him without his consent and
he demanded that the terms of the
agreement be fulfilled.
The commission's ruling, which
probably will apply to all similar
cases, held that the club could not
be compelled to pay Daubert the
full amount agreed upon because
under the "work or fight" order his
contract was virtually rendered il
legal and impossible. The player s
services could not be utilized by the
Brooklyn club after the date fixed
for the suspension of the game, the
commission ruled, and the situation
could not have been contemplated
by either party at the time the con
tract was made.
Former Big League Pitcher
Working in Aviation Plant
In the great Marmon aviation
plant in Indianapo'is is a figure clad
in overalls that would pass unnoticed
m a casual inspection ot tne tnou
sands of employes. He is scraping
crank cases for Liberty motors and
taking a lively interest in the work.
Put a baseball uniform on this man
and a million fans would recognize
him at a glance as Mordecai Brown,
former big league pitcher, who scin
tillated for years as pitching star for
the Chicago Cubs. Three-fingered
Borwn, they called him. From a
financial standpoint he doesn't have
to scrape crank cases, but the job. is
closer to the real thing than other
employment and that is the reason
Brown is in it, without a thought for
the fat salary rolls he has been at
tached' to for to many years.
Don't Hunt Unless You
Are Prepared to Heed
the Following "Dont's"
Every year the hunting season
brings with it it's spoils in the form
of human sacrifices. For the bene
fit of gunners who are going after
game this fall the following list of
don'ts is given:
Don.t take any chances. The
function of a shot gun is to scatter
shot, but be very careful where you
scatter it.
Don't blaze away in haste and
don't get excited. Many a shooter
has filled his favorite dog full of
lead just because he was over
anxious. Don't point a gun at any person
in jest. It is always the gun that
"we didn't know was loaded" that
goes off and does the damage. The
only time to point a gun is when you
intend to kill.
Don't take every rustle of a bush
or a bough to be a sure indication of
game. Remember sometimes an in
quisitive person has a penchant for
being in strange places.
Don't carry a loaded gun through
the street or on cars, trains, auto- j
mobiles or any other kind of vehicle, I
or leave it around farm houses to !
have some child playfully blow a 1
head off.. j
Don't get excited and shoot I
without making sure your object is j
game, uon v snoot until you see
the rabbit, and then be sure that he
is clear of both man and dog.
Don't drag a gun through the
fence with the muzzle pointed
toward you.
Don't climb over fences with your
gun or lean it against a tree until
you get over. Put it through the
fence and on the ground, business
end before.
Don't hunt with anyone that you
know to be careless. Carelessness
with three and a quarter drams of
powder behind and one and one
eighth ounces of shot is inviting
"sure death."
Don't load your gun until you are
actually ready for business. At all
other times it should be empty.
Keep your finger off the trigger
until you are looking down the
barrel at your game.
Don't use a cheap gun, as it is
apt to explode when a heavy charge
is used.
Don't borrow a dog or gun or loan
either.
Don't rest on the muzzle of your
gun.
Don't violate the game laws. It
is not only criminal buf'sometimes
very costly.
Don't "hog" all the game. Leave
ome for the next fellow,
Alexander Has Not Lost
His Pitching Skill
I ' Jflr I
; 4 '
St
Word comes from France that
Grover Cleveland Alexander, the
former star pitcher of the Chicago
Cubs, hasn't lost any of his
pitching skill. Alex recently pitched
for his regimental team, the 342d
Field artillerv as.iinst the minted
champions of the American army
"over there," and scored a three to
nothing victory. The big right-hander
was in great form ami allowed
only one hit, which was made in the
ninth inning with two men out. The
victory won a cup for Alexander's
regiment.
All-Star Teams From Class
A and B Play at Holmes Park
All star teams from the Class A

fast players and a good game is assured.
LAST AMATEUR
GAME THIS YEAR
AT ROM PARK
Armours and Longeways Play
Final Game of Year to
Settle Tie for Second
Place in League.
At Rourke park this afternoon
the last base ball game of the sea
son will entertain base ball fans.
Not only will it be the last game
but a snappy exhibition of the na
tional pastime. The Armours and
Council Bluffs Longeways will mix
to decide which team is entitled to
second place in the Greater Omaha
league. .
Both teams have played first-class
ball all season and are evenly
matched. After a tie for first place
with the Murphy-Did-Its in the
regular schedtiled season Jhey
again tied in a series of six post
season games. They were finally
routed out of first place last Sun
day when the blacksmiths won the
title.
Followers of both teams are con
fident that they have the best team
and a considerable amount ol
money has been posted on the side"
over the Hi; al outcome of the game.
The same teams will play that
finished the season.
Manske Will Pitch. '.
Manske, former Rourke Western
league pitcher, will be on the hill i
for the Council Bluffs team and ia
determined to score a shutouL He'
has lots of stuff and if able to con
trol his wildness should give the
packers an interesting game.
League who succeeded in winning
two games from the Omaha navy
team composed practically entirely
of former big league players will
probably start the game for the Ar
mours. He will have for his assist
ant "Dad" Graves who is consid
ered one of the best amateur pitch
ers in Omaha. Williams, former
New York American, will be on the
receiving end.
Large crowds have been in at
tendance at recent amateur games
and the brand of ball exhibited have
been constantly drawing larger
crowds. The game today will be one
of the hottest this season and a rec
ord breaking attendance is expected.
Funston Has Trench Battle

Camp Funston, Sept. 28. The
"battle of the trenches" that the
20th infantry staged on the open
field of their training grounds was
"some" battle, but still, to be ex:

riors were "biff" artists. The wea

arena. J his entertainment is a
weekly event on the 20th's program;
The bouts are held in the open at
night with spirit lamps illuminating
the scene.
At the last session two knockouts

that there was a lively program.
The championship bantam bout be

the spiciest exhibit on the program.
It also was the shortest one for It
