"Skull" Practice at Central
. ' When Rain Stops Workout
The $1,000,000 rain which fell
over Omaha yesterday did not af
; feet Coach Mulligan of ; Central
high and his foot ball squad. In
stead of going through the practice
Mulligan gave his men a quiz on
foot ball rules and regulations.
The report that Paul Shanahan,
Central and Commerce high school
foot ball star, will leave. Central
was denied by him yesterday. He
expects to stay at Central to be
eligible for the basket ball team.
Shanahan is regarded as one of the
best high school halfbacks in the
state.
The first foot ball game of the
season will probably be Saturday,
September 27, with Creighton high.
Coach Mills of the blue and white
varsity squad has asked Coach
Mulligan for a game on that 'date
and it is understood Mulligan has
accepted his offer.

IGHT chirp that the American league pitchers have Babe Ruth
running around in circles.
He's made 27 of 'em in this tough season of 17-year locusts and
25-year American league presidents. There's been many a robust bird
paddywhacking that stitched pill, but no player ever patted it any healthier
than Ruth.
He smacks 'em farther and harder in fun than another cuckoo could
in anger. - . s ,
Cravath knitted his record over a short right-field wall where a putt
was as good as a drive. Freeman hung up his in a ballworks where the
right field was so short that the rightfielder got many an assist on a bunt
But both the A. E. F. and Ruth made their rep on the road.

old Bill Bimbo used to make the pitchers pull in their necks like turtles.
Bill spanked 'em so hard that he frightened the outfielders. -
If mothers wanted to scare their children they told 'em that Bill
Bimbo was at the bat. He knocked more baseballs egg-shaped, more
straight ones crooked and more outfielders bowlegged than all the other
sluggers in a bundle. - '
Bill didn't have Babe Ruth's handicap of having to bat during a demo
cratic administration. This is the only reason his record is not accepted
by the Paderwiskis of the adding machine.
Bill spoiled more ball games than rain. In 1842, which was a short
season owing to the drought in graphaphone needles, Bill knocked 254
curves for goals. He used to stand at the plate with the easy grace of an
army mule with one hoof in a gopher hole. When he smeared the ball it
sounded like another Ford tire gone blooey.
A pitcher wasn't any more good than a beer check after he had faced
Bimbo once. He spent the rest of his career acting as if he had snitched
the brass ring on a merry-go-round.
Bill was a handsome bird, too, which led to his downfall. He wasn't
much good after he got his picture on all the sardine boxes. He got so
that he would swat the ball and then stand still while his valet brought in
the bases for him to tag.
COWGIRLS STAR

Irwin "to defend her numerous titles
won in past years. She will be op
posed by such noted rough riders

head, will help to entertain the larg
est attendance the roundup ever Kas
witnessed. . There are spectators
present from as far east as Boston,
and a number from New York,
Chicago and Detroit.

OLDEST BRAND IN AMtKICA I
As he didn't run the bases, he soon got fat. But he could always bat,
and made so many home runs that they got common and almost ruined
base ball. He lived so long that he made Methuselah look like a juvenile
delinquent, and finally croaked full of years and went to a well-earned
rest with his beloved outfielders, who earned it more than he did.
Bill sleeps in a little bone park in Roselle, New Jersey. His complete
home-run record is on his tombstone, which is 200 feet taller than the
building laws of New Jersey -permit. '

the barn. All bets on the race, up
to that point, were declared off,
Aquilla Dillon was declared winner
of the first two heats. ihe thm
