Olympic Athletes
On Their Return Home
Criticise Committee
" New York, Sept. 11. Gross neg
lect by the American Olympic com
mittee of the welfafe'of the United
States team on its way to Antwerp,
while there, and on its way home,
vas charged by atfiletes arriving
here today on the transport Sher
man from Belgium. Dismissal of
the committee will be demanded,
they told newspaper men.
The athletes had a good word for
one member of the committee, Rob
ert Weaver, of the Log Angeles Ath
letic club, -who, they 4 said, "got in
bad" by fighting their battles for
them. 1
Praise for the army and navy in
efforts to make the trip over and
back as comfortable and pleasant as
possible was virtually unanimously
expressed by the returning dele
gates. The Olympic delegates blamed
the committee for sending them by
transport, declaring it was too slow
arid tended to let the men grow
"stale" before they arrived in Bel
gium. They also said their, quarters
were unsatisfactory for athletes who
needed to keep in training. They
characterised their quarters in Ant
werp as "very bad" and unsanitary
and the food as "not fit for dogs'
On the way hbme on the Sherman
they came on a "sea-going hearse,"
they said, characterizing the voyage
as "gruesome," for the Sherman
brought 763 bodies of American sol
dier dead from Europe "almost di
rertly under the sleeping quarters."
The loading of the caskets on board
by squaking winches made sa much
noise that a number of the athletff
"had to go to Atnwerp hotels to
sleep," they added.

Man Wants to See Parade
Festival From Hotel Window
Secretary Gardner of Ak-Sar-Ben

in Cheyenne, Wyo., who wants to
know what hotels the Ak-Sar-Ben
parades will pass. "I am going to
bring my family to Omaha for the
Ak-Sar-Ben he writes, "and -want
to get rooms in a hotel where the
parades will pass so that we can

Hamper Soccer Players.
A rule adopted by the Dominion
of Canada Foot 'Ball association
(soccer) will prevent registered
players leaving Canada and taking
part in competitions in any other
country from participating in games
for six months after his return to
Canada, and then only if he is an
amateur in good standing.
Excepting "Whitey" Gislason, and
with the possible Exception of Cy
Lingle and "Wince" Weidell, not a
man on the team "talked" enough
to put the Rourkes in their rightful
position.
"Talk" is 1 "fight.? A "talking"
team is a "fighting" team. And a
'"fighting" team is generally a' win
ning team. ,
When the 1 Rourkes opened their
farewell home stay, August 19, they
stood eight games behind the league
leading Oilers. They had 21 games
in which to make v.p that margin,
five of them with Wichita, four with
Tulsa and Miree with Oklahoma
City.,

Miners Wallop Boosters:
Second Gam Postponed
Jo'plin, Mo.; Sept. Jl. The Miners
slugged out a victory today against
Des Moines in the opening game of
the sencs, winning by a score ot 11
to 5. The second-game of a double-1
and a fourth was a possibility, while
not another team in the league
could boast of half as many. Wich
ita found it necessary to pitch First
Baseman Beck in one game. Tulsa
found it necessary to work Joe Mor
ris in both games of the Sunday
double-header here.
Yet, instead of forging ahead, the
Rourkes dropped three out of five
games to Wichita, broke even with
Tulsa and lost two out of three to
Oklahoma City.
With the proper kind of fight,
they'd have climbed into first place
in that excellent opportunity. When
the home season closed they had
crept ahead but one game and a
half in the matter of their relation

Railroading.
Frivate ownership of head-on-col
lisions is a success. For private
ownership. If you stand still on a
corner for a minute, a bull pinches
you for loafing. Judge smears you
10 smackers. . But 10 dolls a minute
for standing still is cheaper than
traveling. Railroad rates have just
been steamed up 40 per cent in the
wood alcohol district and 35 per
cent in the west.
Privateer ownership is a success
When the gov took over the tlatij"
wheels they hyped the import duty
from twojo three cents a milestone,
live or die. Now they are socking
us 40 per cenum moreum and mov
ing the milestones tloser together.
Yea bo.
The 40 per cent knife is for freight.
It's only 20 per cent for a passenger
who wanders into the depot during
a post graduate course in aphasia.
There is another 20 fine on excess
baggage. The road legislation on
excess luggage is unusually liberal.
Anything that helps to make you
comfortable is excess.
The increase , becomes effective
and virulent Upon five days' notice
given by the common carriers-to the
interstate commerce commish and
the public in the disorder named.
The five-day warning will be printed
in the timetables and will be the only
thing in the jazzboed pamphlet that
will be on time.
They print a lot.' of junk in rail
road schedules, but a notice of in
creased rates is the only thing you
can depend on. 1
The interstitial commerce com
mission values railroad property at
about 20,000,000 000.
That's a lot of cinders.
The public will kick in with the
extra assessment. They always get

to Tulsa. Tulsa led the league, six
and a half games ahead of the,. Oma

The addition of Otto Williams
after the middle of the season went
a long distance toward instilling a
little fight into the club. But Otto
couldn't be on the coaching line
when the team, was in the field. Be
sides Otto couldn't do it, all.
Now the best they can do is to
win second place.
Considered individually the
Rourke club was made up of some
of the best players irr the league.
None will dispute that Billy Lee was
one of tfte best, if not the best, out

Tigers Trim Athletics.
Detroit, Sept. 11. Detroit made It t
the league all season long, never
headed. His fielding and hitting
were consistent and sometimes sen
sational. . -
Bill Weidell and Gislason were as
"sweet" a pair of infielders as one
could wish for. The great Cuban
Palmero, was the class of the league
as far as pitchers are concerned.
He combined rare ability with a true
love of the game and he was-the
idol of the fans. Ad to this array
of stars, Al Platte and Jack Lelivelt,
the demon sluggers, Pat Mason, Cy
Lingle, Fred Haney and the Rourke
hurling staff and it is hard to under
stand just how the locals failed to
win the flag. Certainly, on paper,
they had the best team in the league.
