Two Famous Foreign Mat
Stars Reported Dead, Alive
' wr ? ' AV . .
Maxy', -
It now appears that George
Lurich and Adolph Aberg, who were
said to have been killed by the bol
sheviki in Russia last year, are
alive and well. The report of their
death at the hands of the; Reds was
widely circulated and was received
with regret by ,wrestling fans in this
country, with whom the big fellows
were very popular. However, word
has been had recently from an
authorative source in Europe that
the wrestlers, .though marked for
death by the bolsheviki because of
their loyalty to the imperialistic
forces in Russia, escaped their
would-be assassins, and it is believed
they may return to the United
Stages,
DEMPSEY LANDS
EXCLUSIVE CLUB
TO DO HIS WORK IH
Has an Ideal Location for
Training Quarters and Will
Have an Open Air
Gymnasium.
Toledo, May 19. Jack'Dempsey
is sleeping tonight in his training
camp on the shores of Maumee bay,
which will be his quarters until his
championship battle with Jess Wil
lard here July 4. Light training
will be started by the challenger
tomorrow. The real, serious work,
however, will not be begun until
later in the week.
The deal for the camp, an exclu;
sive club, was closed today. Mem
bers of some of the most prominent
families in Toledo voluntarily sur
rendered their privileges there so
that Dempsey could occupy it. A
14-room structure, with great loung
ing rooms, wide screened-in
porches, bathing beach and fishing
makes the location ideal. An out
door gymnasium will be con
structed.
lne -ioiedo Ministerial union,
which "a week ago filed a protest
"with Mayor Schreiber against the
tight, instructed its committee to
day to seek an injunction, if neces'
sary, to prevent the contest. The
committee was empowered to take
whatever action it was deemed nec
essary, but none of its members
would say when action would be
taken.
Heavyweight Champion Jess Wil
lard, -matched to meet Jack Demp
sey here July 4. last night tele
graphed Tex Rickard, promoter of
the contest, requesting an exten
sion of time in reporting here for
training, so that he might complete
business affairs in Los Angeles.
Rickard reluctantly consented to the
request, advising the champion he
would be expected May 4.
Uncle Wilbert Is
Simply Worshipped
By Every Dodger
New York. There may be some
base ball managers more popular
with the general public than "Ye-ur
Uncle" Wilbert Robinson, pilot of
the Dodgers, but it would take a
Diognes ort of a search to find
one who is more worshiped by his
men.
The Brooklyn ball tossers who
have started out this season so
auspiciously simply rave about the
rotund little leader when they talk
about him. And they rave with
praises not censure. "Robby," as
he is best known, propably gets
more out of his men than any oth
er leader in the big show. A good
illustration of this was given the
other day when the writer talked
with a veteran who has but recently
joined the Dodgers.
"I'll tell you the kind of a man
ager he is," said the veteran when
Robinson was mentioned. "Remem
ber that twenty-inning battle we
staged in Philadelphia? You will re
call that after we had gone out in
the eighteenth inning and grabbed
three runs the Phillies came right
back and tied us up.
"After the game had finally been
stopped as a tie and we were in
the dressing room Grimes, who had
pitched for us, began 'bawling' him
self out. You'd think a fellow who
has been in the game as long as I I
have would have had some sense,
wouldn't you? he growled. 'I
ought to have handed him (mean
ing Cravath, whose hit was respon
sible for the Phillies tying it up) a
slow ball or a curve. I had to give
him a fast one.'
"Robby had just entered the room
and heard Grimes. 'Why, what do
you mean? he said, 'What are you
kicking about? If you'd given him
a slow ball he pcopably would have
clouted it out of the park. We
didn't lose the game anyway, did
we? We play ifc again. Don't wor
ry about what you did. Laugh it
off. We'll win the game yet."
"And that," declared the player,
"is the kind of a manager Robby is;
and I'll say he is some manager.

the eve of the opening of the said
league a stumbling block was
thrown in the road side, when it was
announced last night that the Ernie
Holmes team and the Armours
would not take part in the league.
President Dennison called a meet
ing last night, at which time final
plans for the perfection of the or
ganization were to have been made,
but no action was taken, as only
two of the managers, Anton Ger
hardt of the Nebraska Power Co.,
and Al Storm of 'the Council Bluffs
Merchants, attended.
The Holmes, who were represent
ed at the meeting last Friday night
by Manager Pickett, were in favor
of joining at that time, while the
Armours were still undecided. Yes
terday the Holmes and Armours
both announced, according to in
formation given out at the meeting,
that they would not join. . The
players of the Holmes are in favor
of playing out-of-town ball.
Dennison Will Stick.
However, President Dennison an
nounces that he will not give up the
ship,, but will do all in his power to
make the Greater Omaha league a
success. The Nebraska Power Co.,
Brandeis, Murphy-Did-Its, and
Council Bluffs Merchants will re
main loyal to the league, it was an
nounced. Sunday afternoon the initial game
will be staged at Thirty-second and
Dewey avenue, between the Murphy-Did-Its
and the Power Co.
teams, starting promptly at ' 3:30
o'clock. The Murphys were sched
uled to play the Holmes, but since
that aggregation dropped out, the
Power lads agreed to play the Mur
Ptrys. Big opening ceremonies will be
staged prior to the contest. J. E.
Davidson, vice-president and gen
eral manager of the Nebraska Power
company team, will pitch the first
ball, and Bert Murphy, backer of
the Murphy-Did-Its will try and
catch his delivery.
Bee Junior League.
Interest in the formation of the
Omaha Bee Junior league is at pres
ent in high pitch, since the forma
tion of that organization last week,
and with the opening of the season
last Sunday, and from information
received it is likely that another
eight-team league will be formed
this week.
The Bee Junior league at present
is composed of eight teams, ranging
from 17 years and under, and in
stead of enlarging the league, it was
decided by the sports department
of this paper to organize another
league. A meeting, has been called
by President Blozies of the league
for Wednesday night at 7 o'clock
at the city hall, at which time the
new league will be formed. Any
teams wishing to join are urged to
have the manager present.
It is the intention of the Amateur
Sport writer and the sport depart
ment of this paper to have as many
teams as possible in the organiza
tion. Should there be more than
eight teams wishing to join, more
leagues will be formed.
It is hoped that at least twenty
teams will be in the tieid betore
next Sunday. The games will be
olaved on Sunday mornings. If
possible, an association will be or
ganized and the leagues divided into
divisions, 1, 2, etc.
Managers of the Bee Junior
league are also expected to attend
th meetineg, so as to get acquainted
with the new teams and have a
heart-to-heart talk and make the
season a great success.
American Athletes
Break French Track x
and Field Records
Paris, May 19. Five French track
and field records were broken by
American army athletes at the in
vitation meet here'yesterday of the
University Sporting club of France.
Lt. Earl Eby, a National A. A. U.
sprinter, overtook a field of French
runners, although with a heavy
handicap, in an 800-meter race ana
finished five yards ahead of Phil
Soink. The time was one minute
and 54 1-5 seconds. The previous
record was one minute. 59 seconds.
William Leversedge, Pete Max-
field and Alma Richards beat all
previous French shot-put records,
Leversedge finishing first, with 46

American team threw the hammer
173 feet and 9 inches, while H. u.
Floyd won the pole vault, with 12
feet 6 inches. The fifth record was
broken when Alma Richards and
Bryd threw the discus 136 feet f4i
inches. !
A picked French rugby team yes
terday defeated an American team,
18 to 11.
NEW INFIELD ER i
IN OMAHA READY
FOR GAME TODAY
i
Rourkes Buy Jap Barbieu;
Will Relieve Cable, Who
Is III; Hunter to
Umpire.
Owner Pa Rourke bought InfielO.
er Jap Barbieu from the Milwaukee
American Association club a few
days ago and Jap strolled into
Omaha yesterday afternoon and re
ported to Pa and Manager Jackson
at the ball park. It is likely that
he will be in the game today, re
lieving Hal Cable at second base
temporarily to give the regular man
a chance to have the doctor who is
working on him a chance to fix him
up so he can play the ball he is
capable of.
Barbieu comes to Omaha with a
reputation of being one of the best
ball players the Milwaukee team
has had in years. He is well ac
quainted with Pitcher Otto Men
and Second Baseman Cable, so will
not be among strangers here alto
gether. He looked to be in good
shape, though he says he has not
been in good form thus far this
season, but hopes to hit his stride
with a few days' work with th
Omaha players.
The Oklahoma City club, the
Rourkes' opponents this afternoon,
are about to lose their first baseman.
Fred Hunter, who has been on the
initial sack thus far this season, has
received an offer to umpire in the
American association and will leave
this evening or perhaps this morn
ing for some one of the association
towns. It will be a rather serious
loss to the Oklahoma City club, for
Hunter has been one of their
strongest men on the infield,, but the
boys all wished him the besfs of
success in his new job.
The Omaha players promise a re
versal of form in today's game, and
Charley Kopp, who expects to
mount the mound for the locals,
says he feels like he could burn 'em
across so fast that the southerners
can't see 'em. Merz, who beat them
on Saturday, says he can go -right
back and do it again and hopes Jack
son will pick him to throw in the
final game of the series. Wichita,
the tail-end team of the league, will
be here tomorrow.

Coyle, Omaha city champion, dis
played execellent form, a draw with
Prof. Engberg being the only flaw
in his score. Ohman, of Omaha, Ne
braska state champion, -lost but one
game, to Prof. Engberg, a mere slip
after having the latter at his mercy.
The feature of the match was the
Mocket-Ohman game, which lasted
over five-hours and went 117 moves
before the Omaha man finally
emerged the winner.
Heilbuth Cannot Run
for A.E.F., But Will Race
for France in 1-2- Mile
Paris, Saturday, May 17. A tech
nicality has given France one of the
best half-mile runners entered for
the inter-allied games. John Heil
buth, an American living in Paris,
and the French middle distance
champion, has been declared ineli
gible for the A. E. F. team by Ihe
chief athletic officer because he did
net serve in the American forces,
but in the French legion. Heilbuth
will run for France.
The importance of the inter-allied
games, both from the sporting and
international viewpoints, rapidly is
being realized. The kingdom of the
Hedjaz has entered Arabian thor
oughbreds for the horse riding
events. Guatemala has entered Ar
thur Aguirre for the 400 and 800
meter runs.
Lt. Col. H. G. Mayes and Mai. N.
D. Armstrong have been named to
represent Canada on the advisory
committee. Canada expects to
make a good showing, particularly
in the long distance runs.

Don't Experiment With Catarrh;
It Often Leads to Dread Consumption
You Will Never Be Cured by
Local Treatment With
Sprays and Douches.
Catarrh is a condition of the blood
and can not be cured by local appli
cations of sprays and douches; this
has been proven by the thousands
who have vainly resorted to this
method of treatment.
Catarrh should not be neglected
or experimented with. The wrong
treatment is valuable time lost, dur
ing which the disease is getting a
firmer hold upon its victim, and
making it more difficult for even
the proper treatment to accomplish
results.
Though Catarrh makes its first
appearance in the nostrils, throat
and air passages, the disease be
comes more and more aggravated
and finally reaches down into the
lungs, and everyone recognizes the
alarming condition that results
when the lungs are affected. Thus
Catarrh may be the forerunner of
that most dreaded and hopeless of
all diseases, consumption.
No local treatment affords perma
nent relief. Experience has taught
that; S. S. S. is the one remedy
which attacks the disease at its
source, the blood, and produces sat
isfactory results in even the worst
cases. Catarrh sufferers are urged
to give S. S. S a thorough trial It
is sold by all druggists. You are in
vited to write to the Medical De
partment for expert advice as to
how to treat your own case. Ad
