UMPIRE HOLMES
PRESENTS SIOUX
CITY WITH GAME
Schirikel's Hit to Right Field
Was Fair Ball by Two
Yards, But it Was
A WMIflVM V U II
Umpire Ducky Holmes presented
the Sioux City club with a victory
at Rourke park yesterday afternoon.
In the seventh inning Pitcher Schin
kel hit a ball at least two yards
inside the foul line along the first
base whitewashed line and Holmes
declared it a foul. Had he called it
a" fair ball, two men on bases would
have scored and the game would
probably have resulted differently.
.This was not the only instance of
Holmes' errors in judgment, either,
as he was "pulling" bones all
through the game. He broke his
established rule in yesterday's
game, that of impartiality in his
poor decisions. The Omaha club
got decidedly the worst of them in
this particular game. Pa Rourke
declares that Holmes will never fin
ish the season in the Western
league, for. several magnates have
their knives sharpened for. him and
they will all complain at the meet
ing of the league magnates to
morrow. , .
The visitors scored three run's in
the second inning, going into the
lead and were never headed. Cen
ter Fielder. Robinson led off with a
two-base hit. Thomason walked,
Schmidt sacrificed them, going out
from Jackson to Gislason at first
base. Eiffert flied out to right field
and Andrews came through with a
three-base clout, scoring Robinson
and Thomason, Then Andrews
scored on Fletcher's single, but the
scoring stopped when Mason threw
Moran out to first on a ground ball.
Omaha Threatens.
The Omaha players threatened
several times, but were unable to
push a run across until the fifth in
ning. Mason was safe on the pitch
er's, error, was advanced on Schinji
el's single and scored on Barbeau's
sacrifice flv. Gislason led off in the
seventh with a walk. Mason fan-7
red and Schinkel was passed. Bar
beau singled, scoring Gislason and
Jackson scored Schinkel with a pret
ty single, but Barbeau tried to get to
third when the catcher had the ball
in his hand and was caught be
tween bases. Kirby took his place
on base with a walk but Donica
slammed one straight at the first
baseman and was out.
c: y i ,t
. oioux vuy scorea again in tne
ninth on two singles and the locals
were un.ible to do any more. Had
Schinkel's slam to right field in the
seventh been called a fair ball. Oma
1ia might have won the gam at that
time, but the umpire evidently could
n't see that far and called the hit
a foul. The crowd and players were
up in arms in a minute, when it was
seen that Holmes called it a foul,
making the runners return to their
bases. Jackson ran the risk of be
ing put out of the. game again, talk
ing right up to the umpire and tell
ing him he was absolutely blind.
Score:
OMAHA.

Wounded Men, Nurses
and Physically Fit,
in Camp Dodge Games
Camp Dodge, Iowa., June 17.
Army nurses and wounded men vied
with physically sound soldiers for
honors in field day events held here
Monday under auspices of the Camp
Dodge base hospital.
As a result of the great success of
the recent track meet for wounded
soldiers only, held at Fort Des
Moines, several novel events were
listed on today's program. In the
hope that the meet would be im
proved by a "feminine touch,"
nurses were included in the list to
tike part in several events.
The feature of the morning's pro
gram was a base ball game with the
l'ft-handed men opposing the right
handed men all players having
stiff legs as a result of wounds.
In the afternoon the nurses came
in for their share of attention, par
ticipating in a 30-yard dash, a 25
yard egg race, a base ball throwing
contest, and a putting contest.
For the wounded men the event
attracting the most attention was
a race between men with one ampu
tation and men with two amputa
fons, the former being on crutches
and the latter in wheel chairs.
A 35-yard hop for men with
amputations, a tug-of-war, and a 35
yard dash were other events for
wounded men only.
In addition, there were the usual
track and field events for physically
sound men, and a base ball game
between teams representing Camp
Grant and Camp Dodg.
The meet started at 9 a. m. and
war scheduled to run through the
day. ending with two dances, one
for officers and one for enlisted
men.
More than 150 persons were
entered in the thirty events and Des
Moines merchants donated $200
woith of prizes.
Allied Medical Society -Indorses
Beer and Wine
New York, June 16. The Allied
Medical association of America,
comprising all the various schools
of medicine in the country, today
adopted a resolution at its conven
tion here, declaring that properly
brewed lager beer was absolutely
essential in the treatment of cer
tain cases, and favored the manu
facture of beer containing not to
exceed two and three-fourths per
cent of alcohol. Light wines, if
pure, was endorsed as beneficial in
certain medical cases.
Resolution Would Permit
Manufacture of Beer
Washington, June 16. Under a
resolution introduced by Represen
tative Nolan, republican of Cali
fornia, congress would declare that
President Wilson may "permit the
manufacture and production of light
wines and beers" now prohibited
I under the wartime prohibition act.
C TL-
Just before Wladek Zbyzsko and
his manager Jack Curley, boarded
the train leaving Gordon, Neb., Sat
urday evening, enroute east, the
writer called their attention to Jack
Taylors offer to throw Zbyzsko
twice in 90 minutes for $1000 side
bet. Curley thought it over for a
few moments and finally decided to
accept the offer and made a propo
sition that should make Taylor put
up or shut . ud after all his talk
about wanting to meet the big fel
lows in the game.
The offer to throw Zibby twice
in 90 minutes didn't set very well
with Curley and he offered to make
it $2,000 bet if Taylor and his back
ers cared to. More than that, he
will take the match for the Fourth
of July as a preliminary to the
Stecher-Lewis match, the men o
wrestle for nothing but the side
bet. This was in answer to Tay
lor's offer to wrestle in public or
private. In a private match, Tay
lor or "Zyb" would get nothing for
their work and in this way, they
won't either, except the winner,
who will get the side stakes.
"All that Taylor has to do," said
Curley, "is to post that other $900
since you already have his $100 for
feit and I will cover it just as soon
as you notify me. He needn't think
I will run out on it, for you have a
guarantee that I will go through
with it, for if I fail, you can collect
my share of the receipts of the
Lewis-Stecher match, if Lewis wins
on July 4." Since Curley, with
Zbyzsko and Carl Marfisi have
agreed to pay Lewis $9,500 for his
share, or 60 per cent of the gross
receipts, providing he wins, this
guarantee is no small item.
I will see to it, that Taylor is
notified within a week and get his
reply as soon as possible. That re
ply will be published so the fans
may judge whether Taylor's outcry
;s pure bluff or whether he means
business. If the deal goes through,
Melady will have one of the great
est preliminaries ever staged in any
wrestling show and at no cost what
ever.
When he had partially recovered
from his great delight, Pesek's
victory at Gordon, Mart Slattery,
the Shelton farmer's manager made
it known to the writer that he is
pfter Caddock for a match, hot and
heavy. If Caddock will not accept
the Gordon offer of $20,000 for It.
Mart says he thinks he can get
some other parties interested in
such a bout.
Says' Mart, "I don't think Cad
dock, in fairness, can refuse John a
match, for my boy has beaten every
man that he has met in the last few
years, the oest that could be se
cured, among them and Caddocit
has met Stecher, Lewis, Zbyzsko
and all the others, so I think he
should be willing to give Pesek a
chance now."
JOE STECHER IS
MANAGER DODGE
BASE BALL TEAM
Famous Wrestler and His
Brother Play on the
Home Town Club,
Joe at First.
That Joe Stecher does not con
fine his athletic activities entirely
to wrestling is shown by the ao
pnnded box score, of a base ball
game between Dodge and Snyder,
showing Anton Stecher, brother and
manager of the peerless one on
second base and Joe himself .it
first base.
The Stecher boys are considered
star ball players, Joe aiding his team
to win Sunday's game by slamming
out a two base hit. Anton reports
that Joe is the manager of the
Dodge team and that he will play
ball with his club right up to the
time he- leaves Dodge for Omaha
for the big match with Strangler
Lewis.
His brother-manager says that
Joe does not fear any injury from
playing ball, that he has been play
ing the game so long, that he has
become rather expert in avoiding
injuries. Joe says it is a great game
to help a wrestler get in condition.
The score of the game:
DODGE.

PESEK WILL MEET
WINNER OF BOUT
AT BLUFFS SHOW
Shelton Farmer Will Give
Peters Return Match if
He Can Throw Gana
Thursday.
Now that John Pesek has defeated
Wladek Zbyszko, Charlie Peters is
more anxious than ever to meet
him and will be at his best when he
meets Jack Gana at the Council
Bluffs Auditorium Thursday night,
for Pesek's manager. Mart Slattery
has promised Promotor Al Fiori
that he will put John against the
winner of the Pesek-Gana match.
With this match in view. Peters
will work his hardest against Gana
and his manager, Jack Lewis, an
nounces that Charley is hard at work
getting in fine shape for the bout.
Gana said he was in great condition
and expects to throw Peters rather
easily. He said that Pesek had teld
him all about Peters and he thought
he knew enough about the sheriff to
know just how to handle him when
they meet on the mat.
Even though he has been working
with Pesek for the Zbyszko match,
Gana says he would like to meet
Pesek on the mat in a regular bout.
The training sessions they had are
nothing like a genuine match and
Jie thinks he would have a chance of
dumping the Shelton man, so he is
as anxious to win as Peters is.
The Peters-Gana match will be
the wind-up of a star bill, with Ever
ett Miller meeting Jack Solomon in
the semi-windup in a one-fall finish
match. Miller has been making the
tr;p from his home in Tabor, la., to
Omaha to work out with Joe Stant'l,
in preparation for this match. He
comes in three times a week and
gives Stangl a good going-over,
showing a fine knowledge of the
game and wonderful strength snd
endurance. Solomon's ability need
nc mention as Omaha and Council
Bluffs fans will remember Jack as
one of the best of the lieht-heivv-
Veights around here a couple of
years ago.
Two amateur lightweights will
wrestle a one-fall finish match to
open the show. Tickets for th
ni.v.ch were placed on sale last
Saturday.
