Team Guests of Bluffs Pro
moter See Burnham-Pesek
Match; Late Arrivals Make
' Rourkes Look Good.
Two more Rourke players ar
rived yesterday morning and re
ported ready (or spring practice.
Outfielders Al Bashang and Rel
Mack landed early yesterday. Man
ager Jackson sas they look to be
in good physical condition. The rain
prevented the boys using the field
yesterday, but if it dries up any be:
fore 1 o'clock today, they will be
out for the daily workout this after
noon. Last night the Omaha players-were
the guests of Promoter Al
Fiori and the flee sporting editor,
and had a reserved section of their
own at the ringside for the Burn-hara-Pesek
wrestling match at the
Council Bluffs, auditorium. ,
The arrival of Bashang airVi Mack
gives Jackson two outfielders, four
pitchers, three infielders, including
himself, and two catchers. Kfand.i
looks like the goods it third base,
Cable covers the keystone sack
liirely and Jackson, as usual, will
hold down the initial peg. A shprt
stop to shape up with the other in
fielders is all that's needed to com
plete a fine looking infield. Hah;
"fcnd Corde rman can handle the back
stopping nicely enofigh, and Hazen,
former Murphy-Did-It player, may
break into the outfield to complete
a nine. Manskc, Fuhr, Kopp and
Rsbinson are likely looking bo.
artists. y
Fast in Practice.
If Cordernian and Cable can hold
the pace they set in practice on
Tuesday, opposing base thieves will
find it no easy matter to pilfer sec
ond sack, for Cable acts like it is
his -delight to stick the ball on a
sliding runner, and he's not afraid
of the shoe prongs, either. Coider
maii throws them down just high
enough to allow Cable, to slap them
on their iiecks. , Manager Jackson
has warned all the players to be
careful about throwing too hard

"whips them down in mid-season

Eddie Behan Finds New

Contender in Wright j
By I'nlvenal Service.
New York, April 9. Eddie Behan,
former sparring partner of Bob
Fitzsimmons and now in service as
a Knights of Columbus secretary
with the American expeditionary
force, has discovered a new fistic
prodigy. Mis find, he thinks, may
be the logical contender for the
heavyweight title against either Jess
Willard or'Jack Dempsey.
Behan's information regarding the
new ring marvel, as communicated
to Knights of Columbus headquar
ters here, is rather meager. "His
name is Wright," he says. "He
weighs 205 pounds, trained down to
fighting condition, and he hails from
the far vest."
Behan says Wright has sliQwn tip

weights. Physical Culturist
