Series.: ,
JjT By trouncing Joplin Miners, 4 to 1,
yesterday; the Rourkes not only
stepped into first division from the
. cellar section berth they have c
cupied since the opening day of the
season, but they tied the couht for
.hird place with Tulsa. ' '
Not only that, but yesterday's ic
- tory "cleaned up the series" without
a loss. It was a two-game series.
.3. Earl Schatiman. held the Miners
hitless for six 'innings yesterday.
Then he got wild. ,The Rourkes
rolled up a four-run lead in the
third and fourth.-.With bne out in
jrhe seventh, Schatzmai issued a
-passto Strong. Strong went to
.""second a passed ball. ..Schatzman
talked Brown. Snyder pdpped , 'out
to Gislason. .Two down.. Dunn
wentjto bat for Burger and. sailed a
" pretty single over first, scoring
Strong. Wagner grounded out, re
tiring the side.
t In the next inning Schatzman got
'jT into trouble -again; Yockey grounded
r- out to open the inning. Bogart got
"I a lift on Gislason's error. Krueger
f singled, Bogart ieintr held on sec
ond. Krueger and Bogart nego'tiated
a double steal. Lamb grounded out.

2 j , out, Manager Jimmy Hamilton felt
S s the situation too major-leagubh for
: Mr. Brown to bat Manager Hamil-
Mori therefore stepped to the plate in

2 l Fuhr pitched , one ball. " It was
away outside. Manager Lelivjlt at-,
tempted to chase Fuhr and correct
the mistake that had brought the
'Rourke southpaw on' the field . in
Kopp's place, Jmpire Daly wouldn't
allow it. . -
Fuhr put one right fn the groove
for Mr. Hamilton. Then he put an
other one right in the same plate.
Mrike two, ball one. Fuhr wasted
one two and , two. Hamilton felt
for all the .worl4 . like . Babe
Ruth. Visions of'- Bafterjn' Babe
flashed through little Jfrhmy Ham
ilton's noodle. And while they were
flashing Fuhr sailed the old pill right
over the pan, Strike three 1 Y$, gods!
Hamilton was still unconscious.
Umps Daly took him gently by the
hand aftd pointed out the way to the
bench, "s ; ' ,
The big Joplin rally was over!

WILL PENALIZE
AMATEURS WHO
DESERTLEAGUE
Players of Tearrts tluittinr
During Reason Ma Be
; Barred; Three -Years
.Matter Up to Directors.
Amateur tearqs, members of the
various leagues, affiliated with the
Municipal Amateur Base Ball asso
ciation, who fail to finish the season
may face a rough and rocky road
during the period of two or three
years following.
, Secretary J. j. Isaacson of the local
association announced Thursday
that he wiil introduce a .motion at
the next meeting of the directors
asking for a suspension of the team
for a period of two or three, years
.and also. barring the members of the
team fr'om participating with any
other team during that time.' It is
understood the directors are in favdr
of this ruling. ' .:. . . V
In former years a number of the
tail-end teams disbanded during the
middle of the season thereby award
ing their, opponents forfeits, and in
many cases the leading . teams, by
being awarded the forfeits, had an
easy road to the championship.
Forfeit No Deterrent
The small forfait put up by teams
at the beginning of the season often
fails to keep . the team in the race,
but with this new ruling, it is point
ed out, the managers and players
will think twice before throwing up
the sponge. - . .
This new rule will also protect
the backer and, according to Isaac
son, more backers will be willing to
put teams in the field. Since the as
sociation adopted the rule suspend
ing amateur players for two years
when they junip their contracts few
players have jumped duringjhe past
season. . . . ' ' .
, .Lively Session Tonight
A lively., session is promised to
night at the city hall when the mana
gers of the City (class A) league
meet. . v i .
It has been rumored that several
of the teams have men who played in
the Greater Omaha league last sea
son under contract. The one big
argument tonight, according to somej
ot tne managers, will be centered on
Sel Smith, former pitcner of the
Melady Brothers team..),.. ,;
Smith has: not played amateur
base ball for the last three years on
.account of serving in the army, but
last season he playedjn the "Sticks"
as it was'too late to sign. with any
of the local teams! Smith has signed
whh the Drive-It-Vourself team of
the City league arid was ' slated to
pitch" against the Bowe"ns last Sun
day, but after an argument Manager
Frank Pascal decided to wait until
the league bands down , a decision
