Nov. 22, Sioux Falls at Omaha Nov. 27, St. Joseph at St. Joseph A full card of 10 grid games are booked for Central High's 1919 pig rkin warriors, according to the rchedule announced yesterday by Coach Mulligan. All the teams that Central played or4ried to play dur ing the past season have been g;ven games for this year. Six home games iire on the list and four to be fought on hostile grounds. Although negotiations for a game were made with Council Bluffs last year, the expected rougn house was prevented by the very convergent "flu" epidemic. This year, unless the Omaha warriors look too big for the Bluffers, the encounter will be pulled off. South High will then come in for a trimming to make up for the defeat last year. The Cen trales will then board Hines's spe cials to Norfolk and next to North Des Moines to avenge a certain un pleasantness of score that the Iowans unloaded on them in 1918. Sioux City High at Sioux City will be the third successive game on the road before Mully's pets return for the Beatrice fray and the real game of the season Lincoln at Orraha. This game and the St. Joseph Tur key Day squabble promise to be the choice pickings of the season. American Association. Toledo, April 22.

HE twtj greatest problem's in the public eyepiece today are apart ment hunting and prohibition. T It's difficult to combine the two. i Peace hath her wound stripes eye at a yard of apartment ads, any drink enough brew to swim across. A real estate agent can fib like joys of army life to a hick who lives so far out in the wilderness that the owls elope with his guinea hens, and panthers and rabbits use the same toothbrush., If apartments get any smaller, another year they will be renting em in sizes like shoes or hats. Can you blame a bird for getting dizzy after trying to grab off an apartment that won't raise bunions on his elbows? We know one sapp who rented a collection of rooms that look some thing like the boxes they crate eggs in. He is now suffering from rent shock and is trying to raise a mustache of some spongy material that will st..y damp after the country goes dry in 1920. One advantage of those small-roomed apartments is that you can lick any burglar who is thin and short enough to squeeze in. The landlords must have grabbed their idea of rents from the Texas judge who gave his decisions from the Sears-Roebuck catalogue, 'He'd fine the boys anywhere from a hairpin to a steam caliope, all depending on where he opened the book of instalment law. Maybe they get their dope from Gypsy Dream Book. They sure know how to massacre a guy's wages. All apartments are built on the opera hat scheme of architecture. The agent shows you a room that looks like an anaemic pill box. That's your nine-room apartment folded up like an accordion. The kitchen sink is a combination davenport and player-piano. The rooms are those form fitting kind that button up the back. Even Houdini refuses to go into one. . Living in a six-room Omaha apartment makes you feel like a turtle with a haif-dozen shells. Children aren't allowed in the better class of Farnam street and Dundee apartment houses. A teething kid is liable to lick the paint off the foundations and make the wallpaper bear the entire weight of the structure. Besides, kids are careless and might loose a couple of rooms. Sport By KID All details except the selection of a referee have been arranged for the Breedlove-Shoafstall wrestling match at, the Council Bluffs audi torium next Tuesday night. Denny Ryan was the referee in their first match and Shoafstall thought Ryan was too hasty in calling the final fall and insisted upon another ref eree being chosen for this bout. Up to date, the question is still in abey ance. Several names have been sug gested by both parties, but no agreement has been reached. Breed love finally insisted that the matter be settled at the ringside and a ref eree chosen from the audience or else wrestle without a referee and let one man make the other one say "nuff"- or something else that would signify when he was pinned. m It was arranged before the Breed-love-Smith match that Denny Moore, the Omaha welterweight wrestler, would meet the winner be tween Young Gotch and Jim Gor man, but the Gorman-Gotch match was changed, and they did not go to a finish, but Moore will get his chance to wrestle in the Bluffs any way, lor ai rion win matcn nun with Young Ootch tor the semi windup, next Tuesday night. Every bout on the card will be a finish match this time and each will be the best two out of three falls. An opening card will be closed within the next day or so, and with (jotcii and Moore in a finish affair in the semi and Breedlove and Shoafstall going the same route in the main event, it should be some card. That "mental hazard" thing that Willie Ritchie banked oa in his bout with Benny Leonard didn't seem to be worth much. J. he champion used his old left for a niblick and putted his way to an eight-hole victory, the master of ceremonies calling a halt on the approaches to ihe eighth hole. Willie's smashing drives availed him naught, his opponent be- ing able to drive as well as the coast boxer. Here's a guess that Willie forsakes, the ring for the greens after Monday's disastrous ef fort to come back. A team from Fremont will be sought to enter the Nebraska-Iowa base ball league, and nattsmoutn will be asked to enter. On the Iowa side. Shenandoah is expected to have an entry and it may be that Minden will want to get into such a JUiz as well as war. After aiminir a sad cuckoo is entitled to step out and a recruiting sergeant describing the the mice will think they are traps. In Shorts GRAVES. league. Any other Nebraska or Iowa town with a good ball team that would like to enter a league of this kind, playing Saturday, Sun day and holiday ball, can get in formation on the subject by address ing the writer. A meeting for man agers of teams in the league will be called as soon as two or three more clubs send in requests for franchise. The former lightweight champion was not the only scrapper that failed in a come back Monday night. Bat tling Levinsky made a failure of the same sort of an effort in a bout with Harry Grcb. The Pittsburgher smeared the battler in every round and was a comfortable winner. The expected close contest for the leadership in the M. I N. K. S. tourney between the two Rays, Kingsley and Middaugh has not .yet materialized and shooting fans are wondering if it will today. Both of these crack clay target gunners are away off their stride, neither smashing the clay birds in anything like the form their friends hoped to see them display. q" - They Came to ALAMITO Yesterday More Than 2,000 of 'Em And if their words "wonderful" and celving tank the automatic sanitary together with flowers, for the ladies, -''"splendid" expressed their thoughts pumps the super-clarifier to the put the finishing touches to a plant they surely were an appreciative magnificent $10,000 Davis Pasteuriz- inspection which the Alamito man throng of delighted guests.

Governor Harrington this evening turned down the petition of Mayor Koons and the Chamber of Commerce and other leading citizens of Cumber land for permission to hold tkej U'lillnr-lianinca,, flcrli i ,t l,!if ci i The governor would not give the Cumberland people a guarantee of non-interference. He said he-was not satisfied that the "glove con test" would not degenerate into a "prize fight," and that more than 12 rounds would be fought. Mayor Koons said he assured the governor that every precaution would be taken to prevent any. trouble or disturbances at the bout, that it meant hundreds of thousands of dollars for the mining city, but the governor was inexorable. He has not objected or interfered with the 12-round bouts that are fought weekly in Baltimore but he draws the line on a 25-round or a fight to a finish.
