The Ronrkes took the first game
of the series from St. Joseph yes
terday, thereby widening the breech
that separates the Drummers from
Otinlia in tlte league standing.
, Wichita's defeat at the hands of
Tulsa also helped isolate the home
br vs in their first place berth,
v Earl Schatzman was in old-time
form Saturday. He held the Drum
mers to six scattered hits. Two of
those hits might have been called er
ror. in a pinch. The Rourkes field

grounder that was coming too slow
to handle with the pep "Weine"

I.ee, Mason and Schatzman each
collected two hits, tying for first

' John Evers. John McGraw
Johnny Evers, the "Little Trojan,"
is happy. For he has attained his
life-long ambition to be a member
of the New York Giants. Back in
the old days when the Cubs and
Giants were bitter rivals, Johnny
was a member of the Cubs. And in
1908 it was his quick wit that beat
the Giants out of a pennant. Though
he has been arrayed against the
Giants in the past, Evers has always
been an admirer of McGraw and has
waited many years for the chance of
becoming a member of the New
York club'. Johnny's job with the
Giants is that of trainer. He will
impart his valued , knowledge, at
tained through years of experience,
on a pennant winning and fighting
club, to the New York players. In
his prime, Evers, without a doubt,
was probably the smartest player in
the game. He is here shown wear-

ing his new Giant uniform for the
first time.
It was Evers' alertness which beat
New York out of the pennant in
1908. the year of the "Merkle play."
Strangely enough, Merkle is now a
Cub.
In the ninth inning- of a close
game at the Polo grounds Bridwell
singled and the runner from , third
scored, the crowd surging onto the
field. Merkle, who was oh first, ran
for the club house, instead of "touch
ing second," and Evers called for
the ball at second.' Umpire O'Day
ruled Merkle was forced out and the
run nullified, leaving the score 1 to 1.
The National league board of di
rectors ordered the game played
over. As Cubs and Giants ended the
season tied, the play-off decided the
title. Chicago won, 4 to 2, Pfiester
and Brown pitching for Chicago and
Mathewson and Wiltse for New
York.

Cravath Holds Batting Record.
"Gavvy" Cravath, manager of the
Philadelphia National league team,
who at the present is devoting his
time to shaping the club, has es
tablished a great record for extra
base hitting in the 17 years he has
been in action on the diamond.
Starting in 1903 in Los Angeles he
compiled 218 home runs, 179 triples,
and 540 doubles. - ,
Presidential candidates are now in
dulging in their spring training trip.
And (take our word for it), they are
all in mid-season form.

SEVERAL SPLIT
HEATS IN OMAHA
MATINEE RACES
Hot Contests Rule at Saturday
Afternoon Program 2:16
Pace Develops Close
Finishes.
By HARRY K. WHITTED
Split heats and close contests
were the rule rather than the excep
tion in the matinee races at the Ak-Sar-Ben
track yesterday afternoon.
The 2:16 pace, the third race on
the program, furnished the most ex
citement for the large crowd on
hand to witness the events. Three
horses lined up for tho word, with
Verawana, driven by Ed Peterson,
at the pole in the first heat. E. Z.
Allerton, driven by Roy Owen, took
the pole early in the first mile and
held it the remainder of the way,
although E. O. Mippeus, driven by
Dr. Williams came from third place
in the last quarter and made a
strong bid for first position. The
last quarter was in 30J4 seconds,
and the mile in 2:18.
The green pace, with three start
ers, was a hotly contested affair.
Hazel Mac, driven by Reeves, woji
the first heat after Western Gall:,
teamed by Jack Kirkpatrick, had
gone to a bad break a couple of hun
dred yards from the wire, In the
second heat, Kirkpatrick trailed the
field to the three-quarter, where he
turned on the steam and the big
brown pacer fairly sailed home in
31 seconds. Both drivers -were
teaming their mounts through the
stretch like Grand Circuit tail-setters
and just to make sure he had
won, Kirkpatrick continued to use
the gad for 100 yards or so after the
wire. It was a. great finish.
Captain .Eugene, driven by Otis
M. Smith, won the first and third
heats of the green ' trot, Emery
Payne, with Reaves up, taking the
second heat.
The weather was ideal for the
sport, but the track was inclined to
break away somewhat, especially to
wards the last.
Buster, owned by Jack Kirk
patrick, won first in the .running
race for Stockyards horses, at one
quarter of a mile. Fonda was sec
ond, Joe Guesser, third, and Silver
City, fourth. The purse was $125.
