A statistical survey of the records in foot ball at the University of Ne braska for the five years past yields interesting data concerning the grandeur of the Husker scoring ma chine. For such has been the chief characteristic of Scarlet and Cream Gold teams. Barring the 1918 season, which can well be labeled a "war period," the fruits of victory have been abundant at Lincoln there being but four de feats in 30 games played. The "Stiehm-roller" alone polled a total of 446 points to its 16 opponents' 67 in the years 1914 and 1915. With Stewart came four defeats. Kansas Gobbles One. He brought with him all the hope of the Golden Pacific, but in his first year permitted Kansas and Notre Dame to carry off bacon. It was the first victory the Jay hawks had garnered in seven years and"was won by the miserable score of 7 to 3. The following year (1917) the western mentor brought two additional defeats by Michigan and Syracuse. Notre Dame, however, was defeat ed. " During the five years that have passed Head Coaches Stiehm, Stew art and Kline have used an aggre gate of 40 men in the composition of their five successive teams. Total ing the points made by both Corn Juiskers and their 18 opponents in the 36 games played in that time, the scoring power per man is 21.62S points per season. Figures Tell Story.

The defeat by Michigan, it is true, made it impos sible to retain the Yost outfit on the schedule. But by defeating Notre Dame and holding Syracuse to the c'ose score of 10 to 9 in 1917, the (tuskers can easily count themselves in the big swim for many years to come. ,v ;.! Big Games Ahead. The 1919 schedule is replete with big games. Syracuse and Notre Dame are the real "smokes" on the horizon while Oklahoma, Missouri and Iowa are comers that are likely to cause considerable anxiety at the T inrnln rmn. Kansas and Ames are not to be overlooked either. Four of these games take place away from home. : Oklahoma will be1 met in Omaha. With IS "N" men returning, coupled with the fact that the re mainder of the squad has had from one to three years training in ,the army or at school, ought to prove a boon to the efforts of Head Coach Schulte when he meets- his men September IS next, as per Missouri Valley conference rules.

With IS "N" men as a working basis in this year's squad, there will be little excuse for failure on the part of Coaches Schulte and Schiss ler in forming a formidable foot ball team.' Wilder, Munn, Schellenberg er, Day, Hubka and McMahon are all veterans of the first class heavy, fast, rangy and powerful. The sea son's squad, this far reported, is as follows: ; ' Newman. Swanaon.

Schulte, it is understood, is a grid warrior of the old clan a redskin and a m; He received his 'baptism of fire under the fiery Yost at Michigan and has since coached teams in like strain. He has been at Missouri one year. Powerful "Scrub" Outfit Coach Schissler, in charge of the Freshman squad, is anticipating con siderable turmoil. The close of the war is bringing several stalwart grid heroes of past echoes to the Husker school notable among these being B. Nixon and I Corr. South High athletes of renown. Nixon alone is a stonewall in himself and the var sitv may expect trouble. , the squad turns out officially September 15. It is probable, following past cus tom, that the men will be called to gether for preliminary work the lat ter part of this month at Beatrice, Omaha or some other likely field. In 1917 practice was held at Beatrice. The old conference ruling that a coach cannot take charge of his men until the middle of September still holds..

With all their misolavs the pack ers played a better game than their opponents, when they did play ball. Both clubs played an exceptionally fine game from the eighth inning. The only fault was with Fitch in the box in the final inning. Pitching under adverse circumstances, he weakened and hit two batsmen. One run counted on one hit bats man, with the bases full, and a three bagger by McNair accounted for the other three in the last inning. The same clubs play a double bill this afternoon, the first game commenc ing at 2 o clock. Score "19 4k 1! PUTTING THE- NEXT CNE, VERT WlTH-DWS-DAm ii if i Arim iu WHEN they pick on Judge Landis to fill Herrmann's sox, they are chirping of the verv best. The judge was the nimble lad who slapped that 29,000,000 buttons plaster on old John D., who is the richest baldskulled gent in the works. The judge was holding a special court one day over a quintet of Chinks who were trying to slip in across the Canadian border for the privilege of giving all their money to the income tax man and then getting hunk by making him cut his throat with the edge of his own collar. The judge was figuring whether he ought to send the splinter-eyed birds back to Shantung or down to Coney Island where the Japs could take them good rolling the wooden billiard balls into the little holes marked mto, double zero, triple zero and quadruple zero. The judge was going great when he noticed that the juice in the old lamp was getting lower than a Rock Island dividend. He sent one of the Chinks out to rush the oil can at the corner grocery. The judge didn't know that this Chink was part Eskimoox and was brought up very care fully in the belief that a whale is a cow and that the U. S. ain't dry so long as there is a drop in the Texas oil field. On the way back the Eskimoox put his chin to the can and got a beautiful slew with an- oil finish. . When the Judge piped the empty oil can he got sorer than a porcu pine with ingrowing quills and chirped that any company that would sell an empty oil can back to the owner for 8 cents ought to have a fine, so he fined John D.'s clique exactly 29,000,000 Croix de Plunks. This fine is what made the engineers on adding machines strike for an eight-hour day. The judge fined the Standard Oil those 29,000,000 distinguished serv ice discs. And didn't get 'em. He fined 'em plenty, even if he didn't collect, and this incident may wise up the big leaguers as to just what is coming to 'em when the judge accepts the chairmanship of the national commish. Throwing a bottle at the wrong ump will be assessed at. 9,896,000 washers. Bouncing a Louisville slugger off a spectator's toupee will set you back about three yards of ciphers. Cussing the umps will be about 1,000,000 smackers a syllable, with no rebate for wholesale orders. The old five-and-ten fines are out as the judge has nothing Woolworthy about him when he toys with 'em. Tossing your cap in the air will cost you enough to buy a diamond the same size as your capv which is about two carats for a left-hander and three for other pitchers. The judge believes in fining 'em good and fat, even if he doesn't collect. Figures, Bear Dope 'N Things 5 E Tlme- ARMOURB. AB.H.O.E. Al O'ves, rf Willis's, cf Ccoran, 2b Dyck, lb Reed.

Tommy Mil ton, a veteran driver, won the, sev enth renewal of the Elgin road race at 301 miles today, covering the dis tance in 4:05:17, at an average speed of 73.5 miles per hour. For his vic tory Milton bagged $4,000 of the $10,000 prize money. Riscoe Sarles was second, finish ing nearly 25 miles behind the vic tor. Kurt Hitke, who started his first important race at the Indianap olis speedway this spring, piloted his car into third Manager Satrapa will probably switch his line-up somewhat, al though it is not yet certain. He stated last night that he would probably- play short instead of left field, of short, and Cottrel to left in place of short, and Cottrell to lef in place of center. Eddie McDermott, the classy hurler for the World-Herald team, will again be on the firing line this afternoon. McDermott won both of his games from the Highland Parks, and pitched great ball throughout the season. Bernstein May Not Play. It was uncertain last night wheth er Bernstein, the crack third-sacker. of the newspaper aggregation, would be able to play. Bernstein' sprained his leg last week in practice and has been limping around, but he is anx ious to get in the game, but Man ager Costanzo is taking no chance. Following is the probable line-up for the VVorld-Herald-Townsend game: ( Townsenda. World-Herald.

Bpellman Ort Pitcher McDermott Rynn Pitcher Simpson Riley Utility Starting promptly at 3:30 o'clock, the Riggs Optical Co., American league pennant winners, will clash with- the Unions, City league champs, in the fight for the city class B Sunday championship hon ors. With one game to their credit, the "Unions," acrding to announcement made last night by Manager Pascal, are confident of making it two straight over the Optical lads so as to get the Sunday series over and meet the Saturday champions. However, Manager James Baum gardner and followers and strong supporters of the Riggs are also con fident that their favorites will win and even up matters, so as to make the third game necessary next Sun day. Easy Win Last Week. The City league champions had an easy time winning last Sunday, but Manager Baumgardner and Business Manager Britton 'stated that a dif ferent story will be told in, today's fray. Followers of the Riggs have not given up hopes and although a lit tle discouraged over the showing made last Sunday, have promised to b on hand nsrain this afternoon and cheer for their favorites. It is understood that Manager Baumgardner will make a few changes in his team and shift the lineup somewhat. From information given out last night Manager Baum gardner will himself take the mound, and if backed ' by good support should win his game. ' During the past week the team has been practicing hard and yester day afternoon Manager Baumgard ner put his team through several hours of batting practice and base running. A block of reserve seats have again been secured by the Riggs followers and the band which was on hand last Sunday, has again been obtained by the Riggs aggregation. Cogan May Play. It was rumored last night that Johnny Cogan, who is considered the best left-handed first sacker in the city, who was allowed the Riggs recently by the eligibility and sched ule committee of the Municipal Amateur Base Ball association, un der whose auspices these games are being staged, will make his appear ance at first base, while Cooney, the regular first sacker, will probably be shifted to third in place of Mansier, whose hand has been troubling him of late, and which caused him to make several errors last Sunday. Whether or not this change will be made is still an uncertainty, but it is understood some change will be made. Following is the line-up of the Riggs-Union contest: Kiggs Unions Cooney First Base Potter Mahoney Second Base W. Nufcr K lexer Shortstop M. Pascal Mnnsler Third Hase r . Pascal Yates Lft Field Custard HlRhsmith ....Center Field Koehler T. Haumgardner Right Field . .. .Mrlntyre Smith Catcher a.. Gulnotte J. Baumgardner. Pitcher F. Nufer Rokusek Pitcher Shirker Cogan Utility Skomal Pitcher Uncertain. Manager Pascal of the City league champs is still uncertain as to who he will send in against the Optical lads. Elmer Nufer, the "ironman," will probably be his choice, although many of the fol lowers state that Stucker, a new youngster, will make his appearance in the series. The Murphy-Did-Its, 1919 pen nant winners of the class A Greater Omaha ' league, will journey to Greenwood, Neb., this afternoon, where they will lock horns with the crack team at that place. The Murphys are confident of winning. Greenwood has one of the fastest teams in that section of the state and has been playing great ball this season. Amateur Gossip. W. Nufer. Potter and F. Pascal made several sensational catches against the Riggs Optical Co. last Sunday and they figured prominently in the run-getting. Gulnotte, for the Unions, hit one on the nose for two sacks, which scored a pair of tallies. "Clink" Clair, the crack first-sacker of rha Murnhv-Dld-lts. hit the ball hard last Sunday, securing three triples. Re la bat Ting around the .350 mark. Harry Williams, siar DacKsiopper or tne Murphys, has made a hit In (very Greater Omaha league game this season. He has only failed to hit- safe once. Hla batting average Is .460. The Holme White Soz secured six scattered hits off Lees Hanson of the Murphys last Sunday, but errors netted the Holmes three runs. Frank Synek, playing third for the Murphys cracked one on the nose for the round trip circuit. The Sample-Harts will Journey to Avoca, la., today, where they will tangle with the crack aggregation at that place. The Motor crew are confident of bringing home the bacon. , Johnny Stahurskl smacked one on the nose for four bases last Sunday at Papll llon. Johnny is playing a great game at the hot corner for the Sample-Harts. MET TELLS WHAT MAKES A GOLF PLAYER Former Champ Explains What Put the Stars in the Positions They Occupied. By FRANCIS OUIMET. What makes a golfer? Who ex cels at the game? Why is it that Hageiv Barnes, Vardon, Evans and a long list of present day cham pions and near champions stand where they do? These and a dozen other questions are frequently asked me and every one else, I sup pose, who ever had much good luck at this game. As a matter of fact the answers to these and like questions are not difficult to supply. They are good golfers Hagen, Evans, Barnes, Vardon and others excel at the game because they know golf thoroughly, know how to play shots and seldom make mistakes. I think the latter is the outstanding reason. There are thousands of players who hit their shots as well as any of the champions, past or present, but these same men will make a dozen errors in a game where the stars make about threjf. Vardon is a splendid example of the perfect golfer. He will play round after round of golf, always keep out of trouble and this when he never fails to hit the ball squarely and with a sting. That is what counts in golf, that is what brings players to the top and puts them in a small but limited class. Misses Occasionally. True Vardon does go off, but it is not because of a topped shot or any of those common errors of the game. Usually it is because of an iron that happens to leave him a difficult approach to make. A friend of mine watched Evans play in the open at Brae Burn. He told me afterward that "Chick" was the acme of perfection from tee to green. Another friend of mine saw Walter Travis play his last match in Florida in 1917. Travis had been sick and was a bit wob bly. My friend said that the thing h'e will never forget about that match was an incident on the fifth fairway. Travis dubbed a brassie. Whereupon an old friend of this former champion remarked, with much sadness, "I never saw Walter do that before." Occasionally the star golfer has an off day, but even then you will find he is hitting the ball cleanly. To my way of thinking Jock Hutchin son is one of the greatest golfers of all time. I say this because I be lieve he can play, the most brilliant iron shots of any man living. Yet Jock has not won one of the big events of the year. But he is always right up with the leaders. Why so? Simply because of his sureness with the wood and iron. With the mashie he is deadly, positively so. Given the latter shot to play he will pitch his ball close enough to the hole to be sure to go down in two putts. Very often it is one. Hagen Different Type. Walter Hagen is somewhat a dif ferent type of golfer. A grand shot producer he possesses, in addition, the finest golf temperament I have ever seen. Frequently he strays off the line but a remarkable confidence in his own ability permits him to meet all conditions with equal suc cess. No matter how difficult the shot he may have Hagen always feels that he can escape unharmed. Usually he recovers brilliantly. He is probably today and he has cer tainly proven it the most brilliant golfer in America and easily the greatest home bred we have ever had. Watching golf stars one will al ways notice that they do not top their shots. They appreciate too keenly that the first essential is to get the ball off the ground. They know that the best way to do this is to keep their heads down until after the ball has been hit. John McDer mott, who was the peer of American golfers in his day, played this part of his game most carefully. It was a common sight to see him practicing with two dozen or more balls at a time. (Copyright, llt, Sol Metzger.) Luxus Park Is Mecca for Amateur Ball Followers Championships of Classes B and C to Be Settled at That ?ield This Afternoon; World-Heralds Meet Town sends and Riggs-Opticals Tangle With "Unions " By WILLIAM O. BLOZIES. All roads lead to Luxus .park, Twenty-fourth and Vinton streets, this afterrioon, where the only two amateur contests of the day are on tap, and since both of these battles are for championship honors, otic of the largest crowds of the season is expected to be in attendance. Although the city series battles thus far have not been of champion ship style, managers of all the four teams participating in today's con test announced last night that the spectators will witness the hardest fought games of the season, as all the teams are in the best of condi tion and have been practicing hard for the occasion. ' Today's games will again be to settle the championship honors in classes C and B. Eliminated Pharmacys. Having eliminated the Highland Park Pharmacys, champions of the Intercity league, in two straight games, winning both of them easily, the World-Herald team, champs of the Booster league, will make their third appearance in the fight for class C honors when they lock horns with the Townsend Gun Co., cham pions of the Gate City league, in the first of a three-game series to settle the class C city honors. The World-Herald-lownsena bat tle will start promptly at 1:30 o'clock, while the main event will start at 3:30 o clock. From information given out at headquarters last night, the Town sends are expected to be victorious over the newspaper lads, although the followers of the Gate City league admit that the Booster league champs, man for man, are a better team, but nevertheless the support ers of the Gunners will stick to their favorites until the end. The followers of the Gate City league also admit that the newspa per aggregation, on account of play ing together for a number of years, have a slight advantage over the Gunners. The Townsend team, are corn- judging from the great fight they put up during the league season, they are a bunch that will not give up until the final man is out. . This was proven when they play ed the Omaha Printing Company Juniors, who were tied fof first honors with them, several weeks ago. I he printers were leading un making their first appearance in lo cal amateur base ball circles, but posed of youngsters, many of them til the ninth frame, and atter two men were out the Gunners sent two men across the plate and won the championship of the league.' Did Not Give Up. Another remarkable feat per formed by the Gunners was during the final month of the league race, Will Adams Is City Tennis Champion, Defeating Garey The newly crowned city singles champion is Will Adams. Adams defeated Garey in the finals of the tournament held at the Field club yesterday afternoon, 7-5, 6-3 and 6-1. The loser in the final matches started well, shooting nicely to the sides and his returns were deep, but his younger opponent played a bril liant game. Despite the fact that Garey won the first four games, Adams came back strong and won the first set. The other two sets were easier, Garey having per formed his best in the opening set The new city champion is a worthy successor to the local crown. He won on his ability to cover the net well and drive his returns deep, forcing Garey to loft. He is a fast player and strong enough to hoid a fast pace for a long time. Manager Williams, promoter of the city tourney, staged an exhibi tion match that created some inter est and i surprise for the large gal lery of spectators. Adams and Harry Kochthe old-time star of the loc;:iet game, paired up and went against Bailey of Denver and Brownell of Winnipeg, Canada. The local stars were defeated in hard games, 7-5 and 6-4. White Defeats Yoakum Denver, Col., Aug. 23. Charlie White of Chicago, lightweight, was awarded the referee's decision over Stanley Yoakum of Denver, after a 12 round bout here tom'ght Bee Juniors Two games are on the program this morning in The Omaha Bee Junior Base Ball association,! both for the championship of their re spective divisions. In division 1, three teams, the Su- burbus, Woodmen of the World and the Shamrocks, finished in a three-cornered tie, with the season closing last Sunday, while in division 2, the Holmes Juniors and Dorcas Street Stars ended the league season in a tie for frrst honors. This morning at 10 o'clock at Thir ty-second and Uewey avenue, the auburbus and the Woodmen of the World teams will fight it out to set tle the three-cornered tie, and on the following Sunday the winners will meet the Shamrocks. Both the Suburbas and Lodgemen are confident of winning and a fast and exciting contest is anticipated. MCAvoy will be on the firing line for the Suburbas, while Harold Maack, who was alowed the Lodge- men last week, to take the place of Kaiph Moore, will heave them over the rubber for the Woodmen. Fontenelle park will be the scene of the Holmes Juniors-Dorcas Street Stars' battle. Both managers at a late hour last night were undecided as to who would pitch for their team, but it is likely that McAuliffe will heave them over for the Stars, while Fat Cahill will be on the mound for the Holmes. This game is also scheduled to start at 10 o'clock. when they1 were pushed into third place by losing to the printers, but they continued to play remarkable ball and did not give up the ship. This will be the first time that any of these players of the Townsend team have played the championship honors, and no prediction can be made as to what they will do, but those who watched them play dur ing the past two weeks, since the Gate City league closed, say that they will come out in the lead over the newspaper aggregation When they take the field the same players who won the league cham pionship will be represented in the line-up, as they were the only team, with the exception of the Highland Parks, who did not ask for addi tional players. Manager Satrapa, announced last night that he had a good chance to ask for several additional players, but would rather play the series with the men that finished the sea son, regardless of whether they win or lose. Joe Ort, the speedy little south paw, will be Manager Satrapa's choice in the opening clash.
