FIGHT FANS SAY
SCRAP WAS FAKE ;
GET MONEY BACK
Schmarderer-Sudenberg JJout
Is Unsatisfactory; Claim
i Faker Said He Was
Sudenberg.
The following story to The Bee
from a correspondent in O'Neill,
Neb., was received Monday: .
O'Neill, Neb.. March 8. (Spe
cial.) A fake fight here Satufday
night nearly caused a riot when
t'e spectators began jto realize
they were beinp: swindled out of
their money. The whole affair
following a sintilar wrestling event
two Weeks ago, has put a damper
on 'both boxing and wrestling in
Holt county for some time to
come.
Botli the, wrestle and the fight
.were given under the Auspices of
the American; Legion local post
and Promoter-Mike Kirwin, both '
innocent of the sustitutions
worked off on them , until the
events 7vere called. The Ameri
can Legion looal post announces
that it is through lending its JianflT
to so-called athletic events un
less they are gotten up and par
ticipate in by members of the
legion.
' Schmarderer Is Champ.
1 The event Saturday night was
advertised as a 10-round fight be
tween Andy Schmarderer of
Louisville, Neb., who claims t6
have been champion of some kind
in- the Missouri river navy during
the war, and Johnny Sudenberg, a
fighter of some note.
Schmarderer canie here Thurs
day.. Saturday afternoon, a slight,
pile, anaemic youth, claiming he
was Sudenberg, arrived with an
other of his kind who claimed to
be his manager. -
"Sudenberg"' failed to recog
nize a former O'Neill sportsman
tinder whose management the real
Sudenberg had. formerly fought.
Another split-eared youth who
claimed to be Kid Graves; sport
ing editor of The Omaha Bee,
showed up with an Indian trailer
to referee the bout. When .time
came the fighters tried to 'hold
up the crowd by a demand -foi
more money, there being $250 in
the house. Many ticket-holders
demanded their money back and
getting it left the building.
Those who remained took up a
small collection for which the
pugilists feebly boxed eight rounds
to a draw.
At'that, the consumptive youth
far outpointed the snagboat cham
pion. Sudenberg Is Well.
' The slight, pale, aneamic con
sumptive youth" who boxed
Schmarderer was really Johnny
Sudenberg. ' ..
"1 was there all right," latrghed
Johnny, Monday when questioned in
Omaha. When 1 got there Satur
dayit was 12 below zero and the
snow was three feet deep. Saturday
night there wasn't a corporal's guard
at the fight and as we had agreed
to box on a percentage it looked
pretty slim for us. We found there
was $96 in the bo office to split
between the promoter, the fighters
and pay the expenses. - ,
"We took up a 1 collection and
made the pot $135, but figuted we
couldn't battle for that so we just
boxed B rounds.
Sudenberg denied that he felt ill
in O'Neill. He also denied that he
is, a consumptive.
"I never felt better irt my life,"
he said, throwing out his chest and
thumping it. He looked much the
same as the two-fisted, hard-hitter
that boxed at Fort Omaha under
Sudenberg's name two weeks ago.
Kid Graves is not sporting ed

WICHITA
SAN ANTONIO, Texas, March 8. Three years ago Wichita Falls wa
only a wider spot in the road. The depot was only a couple of loose
ties in the track.
The main industry was loafing. If a guy got ambitious he would go to
a biggertown where there was more loafingVto do. Wichita had pjenty,
of desert, and Bill McGeehan chirps- Wichita could have traded Sahara
eight grains of sand to one. The last time the Giants made that town,
it looked like a barroom on Broadway now looks. The deserted Village
was a nest of red ants compared to Wichita. There never was any falls
there, but maijy a guy took a nasty tumble. -v , "
,
One day a hoop-legged cowboy killed a rattlesnake to drink the poison.
Thai's the kind of souses they went tin down in Texas after Bill Bryan
decided that grape juice was a man's drink. This lad made a pillow out
of a mad porcupine and, went to sleep. During the night the porky lit out
from, under, and the cowboy's royal skull nested in the Wichita sand.
When he woke up he discovered that his pillow was flatwhecled off with
his wallet, but that he had been slipped an oil shampoo during the night.
:- Naturally he investigated and discovered that he had been wasting a
lot of Rood snores on' a miserable little oil well worth about as much
as the Atlantic cable wrapped in thousand dollar bills. This was Wichita's
UCUUl. XMUW IUC 13 UUUg Willi a lavaiuci Ul Ull mat. UV1I I ctu
stop for breakfast. . .
When Waco slipped out of the Texas league," Wichita bought the
franchise up, bones and all. They're building a base ball park that will
cost more than all the mistakes Congress made in the war. Not that
Wichita cares about base ball much. They're more interested jn the new
radiator cap of the 1927 Rools-Royce and whether Crown Prince Cnarles
will give Zizi the gate. But being as how they started out. to collect, a
base ball team, the dukes of Wichita threw the throttle off and jammed
up the safety valve. ,
. -
The grandstand is built out of turquoise. Not cooking turq.oise, but the
best eatingind. It will hold 60 times more people than will ever see ft.
The turnstiles are three speeds forward and one reverse. The diamond
is spangled with grass grown from hand-picked seed. All the grass seed
is perfectly matched in color and shape. The bases are three times further
apart than any bases in any league. They don't like foul balls in Wichita,
so the foul lines are painted outside the park.
The outfielders are furnished with motorcycle? and have bellhops to
chase( grounders for 'em. The club house is. the-darb. Four kinds of run
ning water. All the hower baths are oil.' Instead of handing out rain
checks, they hand out oil checks. This is because an oil well is liable to
bust out in the middle of the diamond and clog up the bases. Gasoline is
free. You can drink all you can carry. '
. . Anybody worth less than a million is sent to the poor house on suspi
cion. A Wichita pitcher learned how to throw the famous petroleum
ball, or tnree-m-one. its greased on
plate so slippery that the batter swings
and once on the bench. ,
The Giants play Wichita in three
nish. We'll let you know just how

Line One Up by ?
Friday Night.
Five tenuis, Union Outtittiiiy
company, Kiggs Uptwal company y.
Bowen rurniture company, McCat j
frey Motor' company and Union
Stock Yards, were granted' fran
chises in the city Class A league for;
the season of 1920 at the meeting
held last night in the city hall.
It was suggested to Close the
league with five clubs, each team ,
having an off Sunday, but by a vote
of 1 the managers decided to
wait until Friday night to see
whether another team could not be
obtained to take the sixth franchise.
Joe Moran, who managed the
Bowen team the first part of last
season, and led the Murphy-Did-Its
to the championship of Class B sev
eral seasons ago, applied for a fran
chise. Moran has a fast team-lined,
up and has several backers in view.
He is, however, not certain until Fri
day whether ho can secure the back
ing for his team, so it waS decided
to give him the opportunity.
Frank Jacobs was re-elected
president of the league for the fifth ,
consecutive season. Sunday, April
18, was set as -the opening date of
the league. By unanimous vote it
was decided to put up a $25 forfeit
per team, the winning team takings
the entire purse.
Wednesday night the managers of
the Commercial league will meet to
make final plans for the season.
