Jess Queen Wins Wrestling
Match From Ray Zimmerman
Edgar, Neb., Aug. 15. (Special.)
-A wrestling match was staged
here last night by Ray Thomas be
tween Ray Zimmerman, middle
weight champion of the northwest,
and Jesse Queen of Omaha. Zim
merman got several good holds on
Queen, the headlock once, but
Queen broke them and finally put
Zimmerman's shoulders to the mat.
There was quite a litle disappoint
ment among those who were back
ing Zimmerman and some talk that
the outcome was settled before the
.match, for it seemed ...to them that
: when Zimmerman got his holds he
let go when he had a good chance
to win. Just after the match the
sheriff of Clay county arrested
Queen on the charge of bootlegging.
The offense dates back four years
and the accuser claimed that Queen
bootlegged at the county fair at that
v date.

REDS PUT GIANTS
PRACTICALLY
OUT OF THE RACE
Capture Both Gardes of
Double-Header for Second
Time in Last Three
Days.
New York, Aug. 16. The New
York Giants virtually were put out
of the National league race here
today, when Cincinnati defeated
them in both games of a double
header, winning the series, four
games out of six. Cincinnati won
the first by a score of 4 to 3, and
the second, 4 to 0. The Reds, as
a result of their visit, increased their
lead to six and one-half games.
For the first time in years the po
lice were called into the park.vThey
came in after the first game, when
bottles had been thrown at Cincin
nati players. The crowd surged on
the field and Center Fielder Roush
was completely enveloped. City
and special police then pushed back
the crowd and after an intermission
the game was finished under ground
rules.
Eller's hitting and pitchcing won
the first game for Cincinnati. He
pitched a strong game and hit a
home run with two men on bases.
The crowd was one of the greatest
in base ball history and got out of
the har.ds of the local management.
The crowd crashed through both
the Eighth avenue and Speedway
gates and climbed over the turn
stiles. Shortly after the first game start
ed a steel railing against which the
incoming spectators were pressing
gave way, 30 persons falling 20 feet
to the concrete stand below. Fif
teen of the 25 who required medical
attention were taken to hospitals.
One victim was reported tonight to
be dying from a fracture of the skull
and inttrnal injuries.
Fans even climbed over the
high bleacher fence in centerfield.
By 2:30 p. m. all gates were shut.
It was estimated that 40,000 were in
the park and at least half that many
denied admission. The police cut
off the crowd two blocks- from the
park. The crowd was more aroused
than at any of the other games of
tli 2 series and quite a shower of pop
bottles fell around the Red players
late in the game.
Eller's spin ball had the Giants at
his mercy with the exception of the
seventh inning, when New York
bundled three of its six hits on him.
In the fourth inning Eller lifted the
ball into the left field bleachers with
twj men on bases. Cincinnati stop
ped Jessie Barnes, the New York
pitching star, after he had won 10
siraight games. Barnes was hit
hard, but, with the exception of the
fourth, he held in the pinches.
Ray Fisher, former New York
American pitcher, shut out the
Giants in the second gamei Scores.

WHAT TEAM WILL
WIN PENNANT IN
THE G, (HE AGUE?
Question Being Widely Dis
cussed by Amateur Fans
Murphys to Play
Holmes.
Who will win the pennant in the
Greater Omaha league?
That question is being earnestly
discussed this week in local ama
te ir base ball circles, and according
to the "dopsters" both their favor
ites will be victorious.
The pennant race for 1919 season
will probably be settled Sunday
afternoon, as the Murphy-Did-Its,
leaders of the league, with four vic
tories to their credit and no defeats,
will battle with the. Ernie Holmes
White Sox, who are in second place,
but with one game behind the lead
ers. Should the Murphy's win the
league race will be officially ended
Sunday, while on the other hand if
the Holmes are victorious over the
bLcksinith lads, the race will likely
e..d in a tie between those two
aggregations, although the Holmes
have still a game to play with the
Nebraska Power Co., in the -vent
that ti ey beat the Murphys.
To Decide Championship.
Bert Murphy, backer of the Mur
p! y-D'd-Its and Manager Lawler
announced that if their aggregation
is successful in carrying off the
championship honors of class A,
Sunday, they will make preparations
for the inter-city series, on Septem
ber .14, where the St. Paul team
plays the class A winners here in
the first game for the world's ama
teur title of the western division.
It was announced by Bert Mur
phy, in amateur circles, that "Butch"
Hay, the crack hurler of tl.e
Murphy-Did-Its who pitched "shut
oat," while with Murphys du-ing the
season, but left recently for his home
in South Dakota, will probably he
back in time to take part in the
inter-c;.ty series. Hay, according to
Murphy, is still under contract with
th . team.
In the event that Hay is unable
to return, the blacksmiths are not
handicapped in the pitching depart
ment, as Lees Hanson, formerly
with the Council Bluffs Longeways,
who signed up with the Murphys
recently, has been pitching treat
ball, and Manager Lawler announc
ed that Hanson will be on the firing
line apf.inst the White Sox. Hanson
is considered one of the best hurlers
in this part of the state, and had sev
eral offers to try-out in the "big
show," but decided to stay in town.
Choice Not Known.
Since Manager Pickett rnd his
White Hose are at the tournament
at SI enandoah, la., it is uncertain
as to who will be his c'. oice against
the Greater Omaha leaguers, but it
was c-nnounced at headquarters that
Jimmy Moore, the crack southpaw,
will oppose the .blacksmiths.
It will be remembered when
these two teams played at Thirty
second and Dewey avenue, one of
the largest crowds in the history of
amateur base ball turned out. Sun
day's game will be played at Fonte
nelle park, starting at 3:30.
Besides the Murphy-Holmes bat
tle, considerable interest is being
centered in the scheduled double
header at Luxus park, where the
Riggs Optical Co., and the "Unions"
clash in the opening games of the
class B, city series,4and the prelim
inary will be put on by the World
Herald and the Highland Park.
This game will mark the second
game of the class C, city series,
betwee' these teams.
The McCaffrey Motor Co. will
jjurnv-y to Greenwood, Neb., Sun-da-
afternoon, and Manager Rosen
blum expects that his warriors will
bring home the bacon.
Plan New Organization.
According to a letter received
by James Milota, recording secre
tary of the Municipal Amateur Base
B:ll association, from Car-tain King,
recreation director of San Diego,
Cal., the San Diego amateur base
ball players are expecting to form an
organization next year, similar to
the Omaha association, and intend
to adopt many of Omaha's ideas
governing organized amateur base
ball. The letter received by Milota
contains a complimentary reference
to the constitution and by-laws
governing the Omaha body.
Milota, who recently returned
from a western trip, visiting at San
Diego for about a week had a long
and interesting talk with Captain
King and other prominent offdais,
pertaining to amateur base ball.
These men were highly pleased with
the showing Omaha has made dur
ing the past five years, according to
Milota.
Wilhoit and His Mighty
War Club Gone to Make
Room for Tail-Enders
Now that the widely-famed Joe '
Wilhoit and his mighty war club is
gone, Omahans will be entertained 1
today and tomorrow by the Joplin
Miners, who collide with the
Rourkes three times in the two days.
The Miners have a real ball club,
but have been playing in terribly
hard luck of late. All the breaks of
the game have been against them.
The Omaha bunch knows how to
sympathize with them, for they have
been so right here at home, also.
The teams will line up as follows,
today:
OMAHA. JOPLIN.

of 20 targets, missing his eleventh
and thirteenth.
There was a tie for fourth place

week's tournament.
PEARLS TO MEET
WESTERN UNIONS
IN CLASS B TITLE
i i
Opening Fray for Champion
ship to Start Today
at Luxus
Park.
Everything is in shipshape for the
opening battle of the three-game
series to determine the Saturday
class B city championship this after
noon at Luxus park, when the Pearl
Memorials, champs of the Church
league, clash with the Western Un
ion team, pennant winners of the
Commercial league, on the battlefield
at Luxus park, Twenty-fourth and
Vinton streets.
This will be the only amateur
game in the city today and judging
from the interest displayed in ama
teur baseball circles this season, one
of the largest crowds in the history
of the game is anticipated.
Both teams are evenly matched
and have a large following, who will
be on deck to cheer their favorites
on to victory. .
Although the Pearl Memorials
have been somewhat weakened on
account of losing Smith and High
smith, who were two of their main
stays during the season, to the Riggs
Optical Co., and Guyer, the regular
first-sacker being out of the city on
his vacation, and Pitcher Fratt, their
crack hurler being sick in bed, they
are confident of winning from the
telegraph men.
George Easton, who alternates
with Fratt on the mound, will be on
the firing line for the Churchmen,
while Greko, former pitcher for the
I ten Biscuit Co., who was allowed
the Western Unions, will twirl for
them, it was reported last night.
While the Pearl Memorials and
the Western Union are playing to
determine the Saturday champion
ship, the Riggs Optical Co. and "the
"Unions'' will be playing tomorrow
to settle the Sunday class B cham
pionship. Then the winners of each
series will meet in a three-gami:
series to decide the class B city
championship. '
This afternoon's game will start
at 3:30 d'clock. Folowing will h,

Prairie Chicken Open
Season Not Sept. 1 5; Will
Be Middle of October
Lincoln, Aug. 15. (Special)
Through some misunderstanding
there appears to be a sentiment over
the state that the open season on
prairie chickens begins as hereto
fore on September 15. This is a
mistake. The open season on prairie
chickens begins on October 15 and
closes one month later, Novem
ber 15.
Through an error, pamphlets of
the game law were printed show
ing the open season September IS
and the game warden is having con
siderable trouble setting the hunt
ers right in the matter.
