Tulsa hammered both Townsend and Manske hard throughout the final setto with the ; Omaha athletes this afternoon and took the odd game of the series 8 to 2. While the home boys were making life miserable for Bill Jackson's 'moundmen, the visitors were finding Lefty Bayne extreme ly difficult to get at. As a, result 10 of them were strikeout victims and they secured only five scat tered bingles. They have not yet gotten used to midseason pitching such as has been dished up to them , throughout their stay in Tulsa Omaha was the first to score to- day. Banner drew a walk at the opening of the third round. After Townsend had whiffed, Bashang rolled one to Goodwin for an out and while Bashang was being re tired, Banner moved to second, whence he scored when Goodwin muffed Jackson's popup.' i Ulna wuil mc game in mc luuuu. Gislason's error, a low throw, start - cd it or it gave Cleveland first up, " a life. Meyer then drove a double to center, scoring Cleveland. After , Wano had grounded out, Meyer registered on Brokaw's long Sac rifice fly, Davis doubled and scored Y, on another two-bagger by O'Brien. 1 After that it was mostly question of how many. Cable's base on balls, ' Gislason being hit, and a single by Bashang scored Omaha's other tally in the fifth.

Those tag days are no longer popular in Potsdam. International beauty specialists are going to operate on the Helgo land wart and make it a dimple. Who ever thought that kings would ever eat at the second table? Payne wrot,."Home, Sweet Home" before they started building apartment houses. Payne gave us the song and the song gave us a pain. If the old boy had ever lived in Omaha he would retract that rhymed statement. Chirping of shattered careers, toss a nimble optic on T. Lipton.

Russia is the land where the hall of fame is a morgue. But they've got to take off their hats and part of their whiskers to Mexico's Bertillion system. Their new method of abbatoir photography consists of lobbing off the victim's expression at the Adam's apple and hanging it up by the ears to dry.

A lot of keg-nosed) fullanthropists are worrying about the future of barkeeps under the ulna bone-dry law. With the ulna bone no longer parked on the elbow-scarred mahogany and the ankle bone no longer bal anced on the toe-polished brass rail, the nearsighted boys who wore the wrong kind of glasses jfre perturbed about old John Barkeep. Don't grab o-f insomnia worrying about those babies. We have never lamped one spigot chauffeur who couldn't step out and tear off more velvet than the average cuckoo that he sets 'em up for. The bird who pushes the bottle has it all over the sapp who graps it. A barkeep is a student of human nature. Very few of 'em drink. The ones who drink rarely drink at work. Some of 'em do, but it's better to drink at work than to work at drink. ) , The beezark whose exercise consists of chinning himself on the hori zontal bar shouldn't worry about the barkeep. He is on the right side of the bar while the beezark is on the wrong one. When the last swinging door has stopped waving in the booze spangled breeze, you can stake your brown derby there will be more bar keeps in the cake line than the breadline. While the brewer's prayer doesn't bless Bill Bryan, from whom all 2 per cent blessings flow, we know that the barkeep can pot more coin as a business man than he did furnishing the words and music for the Hiccoughing song from Budweiser. The brewer's benediction, Pabst Vobiscum, has cheered many a bird on his journey, but it never made a journey shorter. Except financially. We're with the barkeeps when they complete their voyage on the raging foam and the last man's sized collar has been buttoned on the last boy's sized beer. They're mentally equipped to make good. Any bird who can induce a beer-infested gent to gyrate home and face a two-fisted wife at midnight is also capable of selling Maine oil stock or vegetables in the Cannibal islands. none in 2 2-3 Innings; off Goodwin, nine in no Innings (two out In third).

The odd "war horse" of Omaha amateur base ball, Andy Graves, has been asked to head a team in the proposed Nebraska-Iowa League. Andy says he wouldn't mind manag ing a good team, but he's afraid all. the good players have been grabbed by the semi-pro Armours and the cjass A amateurs. ' The New England featherweight boxer, Al Shubert, through his man ager Leonard Nowell of Bedford, Mass., has posted a forfeit of $500 to bind a match with featherweight champion Johnny Kilbane or Frankie Brown of New York, who defeated Kilbane in a six-round no decision bout at Philadelphia re cently. Tuesday night, down in El Paso, Tex., Johnny Sudenberg of Omaha hunp; a knockout on Kid Gleason in the first round of a scheduled 15 round scrap. Gleason was pretty well thought Qf in Texas and the re sult of Sudenberg's knockout over the Corpus Christi scrapper may land him some matches with some of the better class middleweights. The giant Pole, Wladek Zbyszko, since his second victory over Ed (Strangler) Lewis in Chicago Mon day night is claiming the heavy weight wrestling championship, de spite the fact that Earl Caddock is the undisputed champion. Cham pion Caddock is expected home soon after the inter-allied sporting events in France and it is likely that he will take all that egoism out of Wladek when he gets back. Earl is back in form again, having re covered from a sickness that caused him to forego the wrestling game for a time. He is entered in the wrestling events in the great Euro pean athletic show and his soldier friends expect him to have little trouble in winning his bouts. In the meantime, Zibby is billed to meet John Pesek out in the state and it may be that he will have the Shelton farmer to meet instead of the Pole when Earl returns to the land of liberty. The managers of the Armour semi-pro base ball club have notified the teams in the Western league that when they are in Omaha en route to- Sioux City or to change trains on the way to any other city in the Western league that they can arrange a twilight practice game with the semi-pro team on Rourke park, any afternoon. Pa Rourke is with the boys in this plan and has caused the managers of each club in the league to be notified of the matter. Teams land ing in Omaha for a few hours when the Omaha club is on the road may fix up an afternoon date or the twilight plan may be tried when the Rourkes are playing at home. There is going to be a real wrest ling show in the Council Bluffs auditorium Tuesday night. Vernon Breedlove, featherweight champion of the world, will meet Harry Shoafstall, the leightweight cham pion of the south, in a return match to a finish, best two out of three falls. Verne beat him once, but the referee, was a little hasty in calling the second fall and the southerner thought he had a chance to get away and perhaps win, so asked for a re turn match. His request was grant ed and they meet under the direc tion of Al Fiori at the Bluffs show house, Tuesday night. Young Gotch and Denny Moore, rival .Omaha welterweights, are billed for the semi-windup in a finish match, best twO out ot three falls. A prelimi nary of the same sort has been ar ranged, so that the entire card will be one of finish matches, each bout going two out of three falls. Fremont Gets Minks Tourney. Fremont, Neb., May 2.
