THE BEE: OMAHA, MONDAY. APRIL 7, 1919. 6 FREMONT LIFTS REESE TROPHY FROM OMAHA G. G. Kingsley and Middaugh Stage Thrilling Contest for High Score, Finish Tied With 96 Each; Redick Fails. The Fremont Trapshooting club lifted the Reese trophy yesterday ifternoon, breaking eight more clay birds than the Omaha Gun club shooters could destroy and forcing the O. G. C. to disgorge the cup. Forty shooters took part in the tourney, but according to the rules, only the scores of the highest 10 of each club were counted. The Fremonter's score was 895 and that of the Omahans, 887. A big gallery of spectators wit nessed the shoot and were thrilled by some excellent shots by the lead ing trap men of each club. Ray Kingsley and Ray Middaugh had quite a battle for the leadership and wound up in a tie of 96 apiece. O. Hansen of Fremont ran them a close race, getting 95 birds with Frank Middaugh, Smith and Mc Dougal landing a count of 9.? each. !eorge Redick had a chance to be liigh man by shooting a "straight" in his last string of 20 shots, but he missed five and made a total score of 92. The Omaha club members de clare, they will regain the trophy as soon as a return shoot can be arranged and they will have two more 90 per cent men with them, Cal Wagner and Secretary McDon ald, who were neither in yesterday's event. The strong breeze handi capped all the gunners, causing the blue rocks to take some queer twists and causing difficulties for all the shooters. It was a fairly warm day and everyone enjoyed tin af ternoon's event. The scores of the 10 highest men on each team were: Omaha Gun Club. I Fremont Trnpnhoot- Klnitsley 0 lng- Club.

High Schools to Stage Base Ball Champjonship Series Local high school diamond play ers are getting out the old mits and limbering up for what promises to be a lively sand lot season. Com merce, South, Central and probably Creighton will form lines and stage a local championship series. Coach Evans' business boys have gotten the jump on the other high school combinations. With a bunch of fast men on deck, and a couple of nifty pill slingers, the business boys are planning on maintaining their athletic record made on the floor this winter. Although it is likely that Central will try to get nine men in uniform, the call will not be issued until late this week or early the following week. The athletic board has not yet decided whether a team should be organized this year. None of the state high schools go in for base ball extensively, so interest is lack ing in this sport. "Hob" Turner, Young Maxwell, the Konecky broth ers, Art Logan and Art Paynter are among those to whom the Central ites look to form the basis of a good crew. Because of the spring vacation, school will not close until the mid dle of June, thus giving the high school teams a chance at a real sea son. Since a general exodus to the farms is not expected this year, the high school fans hope to see the school teams stage a real series. The high school track men are also getting on their war paint. Commerce high will form a team of sprinters for the first time, and will enter them in the state meet at Lincoln. All three schools have good material although no one school is expected to put out any thing unusual in that line. Aerial Derby to Be Feature of Aeronautical Convention New York, April 6.

WAGNER IS HOPS' NAME AT CARNEGIE U Old Pittsburgh Shortstop Is Member of Technology In stitute Athletic Faculty as Base Ball Coach. The call of the wild has drawn John Honus Wagner, banner short stop of the Pirates and veteran of a thousand diamond battles, out of his lair. Last year "Honus" de clored he was through with the game, but every afternoon he may be seen on Schenley diamond of the Carnegie Institute of Technology at Schenley Dark. Pittsburgh, outtinz the Carnegie candidates through j their paces. He is no longer "Ho nus," but is now Professor John H. Wagner, general athletic trainer and a member of the Carnegie faculty. He bears his new title with the quiet dignity and nonchalance that he had when he was scooping up "daisy cut ters" with the Pirates. Professor Wagner is facing a se rious problem in producing a team at Carnegie for the available candi dates are limited in number. When Uncle Sam called, the first men in Carnegie to respond to the call were the athletes, and as a great number of these men are still in service the available supply is rather limited. Associated with Professor Wag ner are Dr. William L. Marks, Ath letic director of the institute; Cap tain William J. Hazel, track coach; Walter P. Steffens, football coach, and William H. Munhall. Dr. Marks, who has been with the institute for a number of years, was a well-known athlete in the Uni versity of Pennslvania, and made a name for himself in all forms of ath letics. Captain William J. Hazel, the track coach, is one of the youngest coaches in the country and comes to Carnegie from Fosdick commis sion on training camp activities. He has been teaching army calesthen ics to 25,000 men. Captain Hazel was originally a Springfield college man, where he played left half back on the varsity football team and shortstop on the baseball team. He is in charge of the track team and is facing the same shortage that Wagner is experiencing. He is, however, a very versatile athlete, being a trained boxer and wrestler as well as general athletics,, and it will be no surprise if he turns out a crack team for Carnegie. Walter P. Steffens is coach of the football team. One of the most valuable ad juncts in Carnegie's athletic faculty is "Bert" Munhall, who is in charge of the equipment and well-being of the athletes. Munhall gained his ex perience as a meniber of the old Sterling Steel Works football team and later was a member of the Sterlings of Wilkinsburg when they won the championship of Ohio, Pennsylvania and West Virginia in 1909-1910. He has a vast store of knowledge of all things athletic and sees to it that no athlete represent ing Carnegie goes into any sort of a contest unless he is in perfect con dition physically and equipped with the proper accouterments. His quick eye instantly detects any irregular ity in the playing of a candidate arid his skillful fingers know the tricks of taking out "cricks" and "Charley horses." Among the available track team material, Capt. C. B. Schmidt is reel ing off the quarter and half mile in record time. Although only 20 years old, he has done the quarter in .52 flat and is looked for to cut the two-minute mark on the half. M. S. Gare of Northampton, Mass., is an other youngster who is shaping up on the quarter, and although a new man, gives promises of plenty of speed, lliller of Attica High school, Attica, N. Y., is doing pretty work on the quarter and will also be an entry on the 100-yard dash. On the hurdles, R. C. Pttry of Urichsville, O., is skipping the low hurdles neat ly and R. W. Arnold of Norwich, Conn., is taking both high and low in good shape. George Ellerton, jr., of Sewtckley, Pa., is the most promising of the candidates for the shot put. Al though only a youngster and a lit tle fellow in the bargain he heaved the 16-pound shot 40 feet and 6 inches and threw the lighter 12 pound shot 45 feet 7 inches. A small, but choice selection, of can didates for junipers are turning out every day. F. L. O'Brien of Hart ford, Conn., is sure to land a place among the wide jumpers. E. Y. Da vidson of Washington, D. C. ears the broad, R. L. Haninian of Wheel ing, W. Ya.. does the high and the pole, while M. L. Smith, a versatile young chap from Olean, N. Y does the high and broad, and is a clever fellow with the pole, as well. Although the war has sidly de pleted the ranks of the base ball squad nobody has yet cinched a place on the team for in the small squad Professor Wagner has in stilled so much "pep" that lively scraps are on for practically cv?ry position on the team. The ei.tire team wilj, no doubt, depend largely on the work of Capt. E. M. Gretz ler, who is probably the strongest man on the mound. Although early in the season, Captain Gretzler seems to have plenty of steam and hopes in this, his graduating year, to lead his team to victory. E. Godden of Fredonia, N. Y., is the most likely of the backstop aspirants, but L. Devin of Patterson, N. J., is chas ing him closely. Ray Dougherty of Pittsburgh, formerly of the Oakland Rebels, seems to have made a place for himself at the initial ba?, but R. L. Good of Pittsburgh. M. L. Gibson of West Newton, Pa., and D. Riley of Patterson, N. J., are making a three-cornered fight for the custodianship of the second sack. M. L. Lynn has apparently nailed down his job at short, but there is another contest at third be tween Fred Maurer of Lebanon, Pa., and P. Hutfman of Norwalk, O. To cap the sheaf, M. Curtis of Buffalo can be put into any di the infield positions at a moment's no tice. The outfield contest lies be tween P. Hoban of Naples, N. Y. B. Oakley from the same town, M. Gates, B. Abrahams and M. Mc Caue, all of Pittsburgh. Elmer Weiss of Orville Junction, O.; A. Lueby of Washington, D. C, and R. Helfrich of Pittsburgh.
