Favorites in both amateur cham pionship contests staged under the auspices of the Municipal Amateur Base Ball association yesterday af ternoon at Luxus park, Twenty fourth and Vinton streets, were vic torious in their battle for supre macy. In the opening fray the World Herald team, 1919 qhampions of the Booster league, drew first blood Deainst the Highland Park Phar- macys, champs of the Inter-City league, in the first contest of the elimination games, for the class C city championship, by defeating their opponents, 4 to 2, and the Western Union telegraph warriors took the crack Orchard-Wilhelm team to a 5 to 3 trimming, thereby winning the championship of the Commercial league. Both games were interesting throughout and kept the spectators cn their feet. However, the open ing battle,' the most interesting one, as both the newspaper lads and the Parks played remarkable ball, and this battle was not over until Hark ins, rightfielder, struckout in the ninth frame, with the bags loaded. Eddie McDermott on the mound for the Heralds pitched a great game, allowing his opponents but fix hits and sent 11 batters back to the bench via the strikeout route. In the pinches he especially pitched remarkably. Stars Fail in Pinches. Beloyd, the crack hurler for the Highland Parks, also hurled a dandy game, although he was touched for 11 hits. In several in stances the Parks had an opportuni ty to win the game, but the stars, who were expected to carry ff the batting honors, and bring victory LEGAL NOTICES Sealed bid will be received at the office of the Town Clerk of Klngsley.

Both teams were chalked up with three errors, which figured in the run-getting. In the first round the Herald started the scoring by sending two men across the plate by four clean hits and a sacrifice. Sogolow start ed off with a single, was sacrificed to second, from where he scored on choice by Bernstein Sogolow was run down between third and sec ond. Spellman then came through with a single and Bernstein took second. On C. Calvert's bingle, Bernstein scored and Spellman went to second, fro mwhere he scored on H. Calvert's single. The Highland Parks evened up matters in the fourth, when Dean singled to left, took second on H. Calvert's error and tallied on Mertz' single to right, the latter taking second on the throw in. ' On Van cott's infield out Mertz took third and came home when Beloyd struck out, but Spellman dropped the ball and threw wild to first. Hits by H. Calvert, Volker and McDermott netted the Heralds one more in the fourth, and hits by Bernstein and Spellman and an er ror by Third-sacker Mertz gave the newspaper crew another. Excitement in Ninth. In the ninth frame it looked as though the Parks would tie the score, when McDermott weakened and walked both Mertz and Van cott, the first two batters up; Beloyd whiffed, but on Galsche's single, the bags were loaded. Meyers hit a hard grounder to Sogolow, which the fast short-stop scooped up with one hand, and threw Mertz out at the plate, and Harkins ended the game by striking out with the count 3 to 2. Hunter and Farris played a stellar fielding game for the Parks, while Sogolow, Bernstein and Volker car ried off the fielding honors for the Herald. Despite the fact that Burk Lee, the colored gent who pitched the Orchard-Wilhelm team to a 4-to-0 victory over the Iten Biscuit Co., Saturday, pitched a two-hit game, against the Western Union team yesterday and lost, it was no fault of his, for his teammates booted the ball at every opportunity, mak ing a total of 10 errors.

COS Sontk 15th Street making all of these misplays and failing to hit at the critical moments, Lee did not give up the ship, and hurled great ball until the finish. He struck out nine batters, and walked but two, while seven of his team mates were left on bases. The Orchard-Wilhelm team took the lead in the first round by scor ing one run when Brown was hit by a pitched ball, went to second on a balk, and scored on Rassmussen's single. In the second stanza, the Teleg raphers took the lead by sending three men across the plate on one hit, two walks and two errors. Both Kugler and Herrick walked, the former stealing second and scoring on Arthur's single to right. Her rick took third and Arthur second on the throw-in. On an error by Reifert on Lipkey's grounder, Her rick scored and Arthur went to second, from where he scored a moment later when Knight over threw third base. Errors Net Runs. Errors by Dillon and Reifert net ted the Western Union another in the fifth and three errors'by McGill gave them one more in the sixth. In the fourth with the bags load ed the Orchard-Wilhelms had a chance to tally, but Knight whiffed and again after scoring one run in the fifth Dillon grounded out. Ras mussen carried off the batting hon ors for the furniture team by mak ing three hits out of four trips to the plate. ' President Robert Kroll of the Commecial league announced that the Iten Biscuit company and the Orchad-Wilhelms will play twilight games this week to settle the honors for second place. The next championship contest will probably be played next Satur day afternoon at Luxus park, when the Western Union team meets the Pearl Memorials, 1919 champions of the Commercial league, in the first game of the Class C city champion ship series. Since Cooney and Lipkey, of the pennant winning Western Union team, are members of the Riggs Op tical team, champs of the American league, also a class B organization, the Telegraphers will loss the serv ices of these two stars, according to the ruling made recently by the of ficials of the association that the players of the Saturday league cham pions must play with the team they play on Sunday. A good size crowd attended the games yesterday and were given their money's worth. The Western Union band composed of 20 pieces was on deck and livened things up. After the contest they paraded around the field and played a num ber of selections. The score: First game: WORLD-HERALD, IHIQHLAND PARKS. AB.H.O.E. AB.H.O.E.

JAMAICA FAVORS ANNEXATION BY UNITED JT AT ES Islanders Desire Free Inter change of Commerce and Shipping Competition Against Fruit Company. By ROBERT WELLES RITCHIE Vnlrersnl Service Staff Correspondent. Special Cable niapateh. London, Aug. 10.There is a serious movement afoot in Jamaica for annexation to the United States unless Britain rescues the colony from industrial stagnation or Canada agrees to some form of political.and industrial union which will permit free interchange of .commerce and guarantee snipping competition against the United Fruit Co. ' . This information w-as given Universal Service by an official ot the Jamaican colonial government who said that hundreds of demo bilized sodiers are returning to Jamaci-t finding no employment. Many of these men are leaving the island never to return. The same smaller scale. My informant asserts . the United States Fruit Co., has during the war been practically the sole possessor and distributor of Jama ica's citrus fruits, vegetables, oil, cocoa and hard wood output. The cost of living on the islands has risen enormously and is not met ' by increased revenue. "Sevaral years ago," said the offi cial, "Joseph Chamberlain when secretary for the colonies, attempted to subsidize competing steamships from Bristol but the British line way soon smothered by the United Fruit Co's., competition and retired .from business, with the result that the banana planters are getting one-half of whst they once did for their product and are unable to pay their laborers more than from 60 to 75 cents a day. Plantations leased by the trust are able to pay higher wages and are drawing labor away from the independent planters." Political union with Canada, according to my informant is the only alternative to annexation or complete ruin. Jamaica is now giv ing Britain 33 1-J per cent reference in their markets over foreign coun tries. - 1 Skinner's the Best Macaroni and Spaghetti Recipe Book Free Omaha St. Johns, N. F., Aug. 10.

Only 28 players of the Nebraska Power company team faced Lees Hanson, the crack slab artist, who was on the mound for the Murphy-Did-Its yesterday afternoon at Fon tenelle park, ,and the blacksmith lads won by a score of 7 to 0, there by gaining a stronger hold on the championship flag of the Greater Omaha league. By losing yesterday the Power team was eliminated from the race in the league. Hanson pitched air tight ball throuout, allowing but two hits, and struck out seven men. He was never in danger and had the Powers at his mercy througout. Yost and Madden were the only two players of the Power company to hit safe, Yost cracking out a Texas leaguer in the second and Madden a liner in the third. The fieldjng of Payne in left field and the batting of Mancuso and Williams, featured for the Murphys. In the first frame Dygert walked, took second on Claire's sacrifice and scored on Krug's single, and Krug scored on Synek's double to left. Singles by Vandiver and Hal ler and Mancuso's triple in the seventh netted the Murphys two more and in the eighth Payne singled and scored on Williams' triple.
