THE BEE: OMAHA. MONDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1919. OMAHANS TO GET DOUBLE-HEADED FOOT BALL BILL j Nebraska to Play Oklahoma in Final and Creighton to Meet Marquette University. :ate followers of the gridiron will be in their glory next Saturday when they witness the doubleheader which will be staged at Rourke park. The Nebraska Cornhuskers will clash with the great Oklahoma eleven, while the Creighton Blue and W.ute squad will tangle with Mar quette at 1 o'clock. This will be the first time in years that state foot ball followers will see a foot ball doubleheader, as one game was usually regarded as suffi cient Preliminary games have been played, but not between such teams as will be present at Rourke park next Saturday afternoon. One of the big features of the doubleheader is the fact that it will be the first time in several years that Omaha foot ball followers have seen the Cornhuskers in action on Omaha soil. Usually the Omaha fans had to journey to Lincoln to,see the Nebraska team in action. Pleaded for Omaha Game. The Omaha alumni of the State university and others interested in the Cornhuskers' gridiron team have pleaded for a Nebraska game in Omaha, but the ruling of the Mis souri Valley conference, with which Nebraska was affiliated, prevented the Nebraska eleven playing in Omaha. Nebraska withdrew from the conference and scheduled a game with Oklahoma, to be played here. Reports coming from the Okla homa camp are to the effect that the college has a strong and fast eleven and will surely run away from the Nebraska lads. Coach Benny Owens of the Oklahoma squad, is training his men to put over some tricky plays when they meet Nebraska. He is noted for his originality on for ward passes. Coach Schulte of Nebraska will also attempt to pull off some new plays and a hard fought battle is ex pected when they meet. Another Hard Game. The Creighton-Marquette game will be another hard game, as these teams have been intense rivals for yeers and are out to capture their opponent's scalp. The defeat which the Blue and White squad administered to South Dakota last week goes to prove that the Creighton coach has a team that will show up well this year. The Creighton doctor told Mills Friday that Lynch and Driscoe will probably be out of the Marquette game, as the injuries they received in the South Dakota contest do not seem to heal. The coach believes that the injuries will heal before the Marquette game. "It will be a hard blow to me if I lose these two men," said Mills to the doctor. The men will probably be used in next week's game, as they told the doctor that they are not afraid of any more injuries. Men are at work at Rourke park building additional stands, as one of the biggest crowds' that ever thronged into Rourke park is ex pected to witness this affair. It can be remembered by fans when Creighton field, one of the biggest crowds in the history of the gridiron in Omaha attended the game. The committee is preparing to handle a crowd which they estimate will be around 8,000. Pittsburgh Again Wins. Havana, Oct. 19. The Pittsburgh base ball team of the National league again was victorious over the Havana nine today, 2 to 0. INDOOR SPORTS mo-mum-i New, sc Drawn for The Bee by Tad CAPTAIN COOKE OF THE G. N. R. R. FEELS FINE, NOW Veteran Conductor Praise Tanlac for, Overcoming His Troubles. "A few bottles of Tanlac has made me feel just like a new man," was the statement made by Captain P. M. Cooke, residing at 144 East Winifred street. St. Paul, Minn., while in the St. Paul Drug Co. store recently. Captain Cooke has been i conductor on the Great Northern Railroad for 15 years, and is one of the most popular men in the service if the company. "For years." continued Captain Cooke, 'I suffered from stomach trouble and had scarcely any appe tite, and what little I ate disagreed aith me so that I would bscome ter ibly nauseated. Gas woiud form n my stomach and affect my heart io I could hardly breathe. I had .errible headaches that would last 'or two or three weeks at a time ind nearly drive me wild, and I vould become so dizzy at times that " would have to grab hold of some hing to keep from falling. My lerves got in such bad shape I could Jeep very little, and I would get ip in the morning feeling dull and leavy and all run-down. "Nothing I tried seemed to do me any good, and I kept getting worse 11 the time. A few weeks ago some rne suggested that I try Tanlac and I got a bottle and began taking it, tnd after taking t.o bottle I felt a jreat deal better. I have a fine ipoetite now, and what I eat agrees with me perfectly. Gas has quit forming in my stomach and I am not troubled with shortness of breath. I never have any more headaches or dizzy spells and can sleep fine, and get up in the morn ing feeling full of life and energy : In fact, I never felt better in my life, and feel at least ten years younger. I am very grateful for what Tanlac has done for me." Tanlac is sold in Omaha at all Sherman & McConnell Drug Com pany's stores, Harvard Pharmacy and West End Pharmacy.

Armours, 6; Murphy-Did-Its, 0. Practically every base ball pitcher at some time in his career longs for his name to be carved in the Base Ball Hall of Fame" for performing some great deed, but it very seldom happens that any one of them have the honor of pitching a no-hit, no run game, especially in a champion ship series and against a team com posed mainly of former league stars. . That is just what happened yester day afternoon at Rourke pzrk in the first game of the double-header be tween the Murphy-Did-Its, city and western amateur champs, anil the Armours, Omaha's semi-pros, in their fight for the city base ball title. No Hits, No Runs. Art Dyke, on the mound for the Armours, is the gent who performed this remarkable feat, and, as a re sult, kept his teammates in the run ning, the Packers winning by the score of 6 to 0. Dyke pitched one of the best games of his career, and had the hard-hitting Murphys at his mercy throughout the entire con test, not issuing a pass, and 11 of them went via the strikeout route. During the nine frames only 27 men faced him. His teammates also gave him wonderful support, mak ing but one bobble. The Armours had their batting togs on and se cured a total of 13 hits off of "Butch" Hay. the star hurler for the western champs, including a triple by Catcher Hale and a double by Dyke. The Armours started the scoring m tha initial frame, when Marty Collins reached first on Mancuso's error, took third when Hay threw wild to first and tallied on Corcor nn's single. In the third Dyke started the fireworks with a double to right, was sacrificed -to third by Al Graves and scored on "Butch's" wild pitch. A triple by Hale and Hemrr.irigway's single gave the Packers another in the fourth, while singles by Corcoran, Hale and Hem iningway scored another in the sixth. Two more were registered in the eighth on singles by Hale, Hem mingway. Reed and Echtcmier. Rain Stops Game. The first contest was stopped on two occasions on account of Jupiter Pluvius interfering, but nevertheless il was fast and snappy and more "pep" was displayed than in any of the previous games. In the first half of the fifth rain stopped the game, but play was resumed after a rest of 25 minutps and again in the seventh the game was called for about 15 minutes. By their victory yesterday the, Armours have still a chance at the city base ball title, and the series now standi 3 to 2 in favor "of the Murphy-Did-Its. Not a Murphy player reached first base in the game againsr Dyke. Manager Otto Williams, who was out of the game on account of an injury received last week, managed the team from the bench. Hem mingway, former star second base man of Pa Rourke's team, filled that position, while Catcher Hale, also a member of Pa's team this season, played behind the bat. Started Second Game. On account of the .remarkable showing made by Dyke in the first game, Manager Williams decided to use him in the second game. Al though touched for four hits in four innings, he pitched great ball However, before the Murphys could register a hit off his delivery, he pitched nine and one-third frames. After Lawler was out in the first inning of the second game, Sweeney. Omaha Whist Club Scores. ,lLi2i A j The first of a series of matched pair plays under the Mitchell sys tem for the Martin pins was held at the Rome hotel Friday evening, October 17. The play resulted as follows: Austin and Davis, matches won 11 Abbott and lirfiyfooa 8 Ohman and Nelson Burnesa and Scannell T Brotherton and Stebblns 7 Aikln and Smith 6 Cook and Martin 6 Buck and Kllgore 5 Dorward and Voorhees 8 Dohse and Mann , 2 Cotter and Peterson 1 the Murphys crack second sacker, drove a triple to left field. When the game was called in the fourth round on account of dark ness and rain, the Murphys had two scores to their credit and the Pack ers none. In the second round of the second game, Dyke began to weaken, and walked Harry Will'ams, the first man up; Snyek then beat out a bunt, and on Vandiver's walk the bags were loaded. Haller flew to Hale, and McGuire whiffed, but Manager Lawler came across with a smashing double, scoring both Wil liams and ynek. A double-header may be staged next Sunday to decide the champion ship, and, if weather conditions are favorable, one of the largest crowds that ever attended a base ball game in the city is expected. Manager Lawler of the Murphys termed it a "dirty trick to prevent the Murphys winning the city title" to call the game when they were two runs to tne gooa in the second tray. Law ler says he will claim the city cham pionship on the grounds of a default by the Armours. Murphys Claim Forfeit. I According to the rules of base ball, the umpire should call a halt of half an hour when rain interferes with the progress of a game. Um pire Smith did not do this, but called the game off when the Armour manager and players protested against playing in the rain. If the rain prevented the continuation of the game after the half hour has passed, then it would be perfectly all right to call the game off. Law ler claims Smith violated the rules of the game in this respect, and he claims a forfeit game for his team. Another feature of Dyke's pitch ing, which should not be overlooked, is the fact that he nearly tied "Hod" Eller's iccord for consecutive strike outs. In the sixth round he whiffed all three batters and in the seventh the first two men fanned. Had Echtemier not caught Clair's foul, chances are that the (first baseman would also have whiffed, for the western champs could not connect with Dyke'sxemery ball. Pete McGuire, who was on the mound for the Murphys in the sec ond fray, pitched a great game, al lowing but two bingles and whiffed six. The score: ARMOURS. I MURPHYS. AB.H.O.E.I AB.R.O.E. A.

LINCOLN WRITER MAKES EXCUSES FOR UNI SOU AD Declares Nebraska Team is in No Wise Failure Record This Far is One of 1 Achievement. Just to offset "opinions" pro and con, c.) :erning why Nebraska uni versity -'. getting a bad start this fall on account of its two defeats' thus far this season dope that is going the rounds of rooters this article is written. In iusl'.ce to Coach Schulte, the new Husker mentor, who, in part, was the object of the clamor, the lacts snoud be stated. In no wise, is .the Nebraska team a failure. Con trary, its record of two defeats by Iowa and Notre Dame and a tie with Minnesota, is one of achieve ment. Luck Against Them. The Hrskers fought hard in alt three grtWies. In each luck was large ly against them, playing an import ant part in the final scores. In no single instance in the entire country has a ream met as gamely and con tested as evenly, with three such formidable opponents at the sea son's opening. Saturday's game was a toss up.' That Coach Schulte, minus a quarterback, intended to play a strategic game, directed from the sidelines against Notre Dame, was evident. The Nebraska mentor Started his team with Hubka, tackle; Schcllenberg, halfback, and Ho warth, quarterback, in reserve. At the opportune moment he intended to use them. 4 Catholics There First. But Rockne beat him to it. The Notre Dame team, with Bergman carrying the ball, staged their thrill ing 97-yard run for a touchdown when less than SO second of play had been accounted for. Captain Bahan kicked goal with unerring accuracy. Most certainly this was a lead to be feaned. Yet the Huskers never ceased fighting. Notre Dame sprung forward passes. Heretofore during the sea son the Hoosiers had not used a single pass. Their game, with one of the fastest backfields in the coun try, was a line smashing, end run af fair. This was the gist of reports from South Bend in the Husker camp. So the Nebraska coach pre pared for the unexpected accord ingly. Hubka at Fullback. Hubka went in at fullback. The big Bohemian asserted his tremend ous smashing offensive power in no slight terms. The line, with Ly man, Monfe Munn and Wilder as its mainstays, held admirably. Schel lenberg, according to the dope, was slated to make gains. Here the Hoosier backfield again came into play. In nearly every instance when the Huskers had the ball, the fleet Notre Dame backs, Bergman, Gipp and Bahan, scoring past rules of the game, completely ignored the Husker line and skirting the ends wide, drove in on the Husker backs as they moved forward on the of fensive Thus the Nebraska machine crumbled. Huskers Supreme on Line. On line smashes the Huskers were supreme. Their battering ram at tack was good for wide and varied gains. But skirting ends and run ning from punt formation caused their defeat. The Notre Dame back field was just a little too fast for them. That's how the 8,000 yelling rooters missed the Nebraska backs in action. From now on, with the heavy weight portion of their lopsided schedule dealt with. Schulte's 1 men Central High Team Plays Strong Squad at Des Moines This Week Coach Mulligan of Central High and his foot ball warriors will take the second trip of the gridiron sea son this week when they will journey to Des Moines and tangle with the North High school in that city. According to the reports that the Iowans issue, they will have a heavy and experienced squad and should beat the Purple and White squad by a large margin. They will out weigh the Omaha lads several pounds to the man. The Central goal line has not been touched yet this year, and when they meet the Iowa lads they will have to show some pep and speed if they wish to return home without their goal line crossed. Negro Objects to Another Accompanying His Best Girl William Cheeks, negro, 2119 Sew ard street, objected last night to "anothah" going out with his best girl. He objected so strenuously that he followed the girl and her es cort. When they boarded a Cross town street car, south bound, at Twenty-fourth and Parker streets, he followed suit. Passengers on the car called Offi cer O. P. Peterson when the street car arrived at Twenty-fourth and Farnam streets and complamed that Cheeks and his two friends were dis turbing the peace and dignity of the street car by loud threats. Peterson found Cheeks to be armed. Cheeks was arrested, charged with carrying concealed weapons, and released on $100 bond. "Joe" Comes and Nine Youths Spend Night in City Jail Two or three dozen young men and hovs were crowded around a pool hail of Elias Genho. 2202 South Twentieth street. Something' on the table peemed- to command the undi vided attention of all. "Come on, Joe." yelled an ex cited voice from the innr circle of men and poys. "Come on, Joel" the voice repeated. ' Joe responded. Joe, whose other name is Potach, exercised his au thority as a minion of the law and with Officers Cich, Samardick and Caldwell and Sergeant Samuelson arrested nine ot the men and boys and Elias Genhoi the proprietor. A rear door was damaged when the others escaped. Ger.ho was charged with keefing a disorderly house and the nme other prisoners with being inmates.

With victories over Purdue and Iowa to its credit, Illinois leads the race for the west ern conference foot hall champion ship, with Chicago, Wisconsin. Min nesota, Michigan and Ohio state .scrambling to make the fight for the title, one of the closest in "big ten" foot ball history. Defeat for Northwestern, regarded as the "dark horse" in the race; and Indiana-Iowa, Saturday's struggles eliminated these teams from further championship consideration. Purdue also is out of the race as a result of its lossCs to Illinois and Chicago. The championship drive will be further narrowed next Saturday wlien Michigan and Ohio state, playing their first conference games of he season, meet at Ann Arbor. In the other championship elimina tion games, Illinois will take on Wisconsin: Minnesota will face Iowa, and Chicago and Northwest ern will hook up. Resurrect On-Side Kick. Perhaps the biggest surprise of the Saturday struggles was the de feat of Northwestern and the close score of the Illinois-Iowa contest. Illinois resurrected the on-side kick, a play which has been discarded by the "big ten" coaches, to wrest vic tory from Iowa in one of the hard est and cleanest foot ball games of the season. Although Illinois played a sparkling contest, experts agree that the team is not a finished ma chine; that its line must be strength ened before1 meeting other elevens of the conference. Poo- generalship, ragged team play and frequent fumbles was at tributed to the defeat of Northwest ern. Wisconsin gave a perfect exhi bition rf team play and will prove a formidable foe for Illinois next Saturday. Defeats Purdue. Chicago established itself in the race by a 16 to 0 triumph over Pur due, forward passes playing an im portant part of the victory. The heavy Minnesota eleven relied chiefly on straight foot ball to down Indiana. 20 to 6, and Michigan used forward passes to good advantage in defeai'ng the Michigan Aggies, 26 to 0, in a game calculated to put the Wolverines on edge for the all important contest with Ohio State next Saturday. Ohio State ran up a lopsided score against Kentucky State-, win ning, 49 0. Outside the conference Notre Dame bowled over Nebraska, 14 to 9. lhe Cornhuskers relied on straight foot ball, while Notre Dame used forward passes to great extent.
