Des Moines. Ta. Oct. 10. Creigh
ton university is likely to meet with
a stumbling block when it tackles
Drake diversity in Ojnaha Novem
ber 1J.
The eleven is coached ,by M. B.
Banks, former Syracuse quarterback
and all-Americati choice, and in ad
dition to a number of veterans from
last year's team, which had a fairly
successful season in the Missouri
Valley conference, he hasa score of
stars from the last year freshman
squad1. ; .' . ' . .. " '
The material is the finest in the
history of the school, and the. team
has won its opening games by im
pressive scores, although the oppo
sition was not particularly classy.
The eleven has,won two games with
out having its goal line crossed, pil
ing up a score of 54 to 0 against Penn
college and 66 to 0 against Simpson
college. Simpson hi particular has
a fairly good college team.
Plenty of Stars.
The team does not lack m stars,
and the line is a heavy one. In the
backfield he , wjU probably start
Brihdley at quarter, Joyce Allen at
one half, Shawvcr at the other half
and Shearer at fullback. Shawver
was an Itll-Missouri, Valley halfback
last year. The other three men are
all former high school stars selected
as all-state squad material for more
than one year during their high
school careers.
On the line lie will have Pendy
and Lbng at ends.'Denton and Horn-
aday on tackles, Tiltnont and Lutz
it gaurds and Amme at center. Atl
are experienced men and the line will
average bettersthan 185 pounds from
cnu to eno.
As extra- backfield material he has
XiggemyerN-who. played quarter for
the eleven last year. Given 'fullback,
Heath, j Byers and Sherman halves,
all of whom.woujrd look good to al
most any coach in the country..
Has Heavy Schedule. . ,
Allen is an extremely reliable
open field runner and Brindley is an
experienced foot ball general and an
accurate forward passer. Shearer,
who starred ftfr Mason City High
school, has shown ability to dent al
most any kind of a line. Shawver is
extremely fast. '
The eleven has one of the heaviest
schedules of any team in, the vest
outside' of the conference this'year,
playing Washington university, Mis
souri, Kansas, Grinnell, Morning
side, Creighton and Oklahoma.
Sewell rapped to Kilduff. who retired
Gardner at the pan, and another bounder
to feta retired the side.
Cleveland had a chance In the first In
ning, when Evans poked a single through
Sheehan. a glaringly weak spot In the
Brooklyn defense today, but "Wfcmby"
and Evansv crossed each other In some'
way on a hit and run' play, on which
Evans was thrown out at second stand
ing up.
The third Inning was another bad one
for the Indians. Evans ripped off a single
with one gone. - "Wamby" tried to lay
down a bunt; but It bounded high In the
air in front of the plate, and Miller got
it tn time to force oufc Evans at second.
Burns drovXa liner through left (center,
and It almost bounded Into the temporary
stands. Before Myers and VWheat could
corral the pill, Speaker raced across the
pan with tho only run of tho game, and
Hums reached second.
The- Indians had another r he nee to
score' In th-e eighth, when Evans made the
third of his trln of swats with one- down,
but Smith's balk motion fooled him and
he was picked off the base before any
thing could happen. Tte best chance ths
Robins had to score was tn the. second In
ning. Two were gone when Konetchy
singled and - Sewell and Gardner missed
easy bounders from Kilduff and Miller,
tilling the bags. Sherrod Smith lifted an
easy one to Speaker for the third out

George Eamson
Cancels His Bout
With Schmader
promoter Ernie Holmes Sub
stitutes "Gunboat" Smith in
Main Event' of Wednes
day's Athletic Show.
By RALPH WAGNER.
. George Lamson, Walthill, Neb.,
heavyweight boxer, who was sched
uled to appear in a 10-round fistic
wicounter with Andy Schmader of
Louisville, Neb., at an athletic show
to be staged at the City auditorium
Wednesday evening, will not be per
mitted to enter a ring until his phy
sical condition is improved, accord
ing to Dr. F. T. Schleier, First Na
tional Bank building, who operated
on the Walthill heavy Sunday aft
ernoon. Promoter Ernie Holmes, who is
staging the' athletic show for the
benefit of the Omaha Firemen's Re
lief association, announced last
night that "Gunboat" Smith, Phila
delphia slugger, will meet Schmader
in the 10-round main event. Smith
will arrive in Omaha early today
from Chicago, where he has been
in training.
Smith is Veteran.
Fans who already have purchased
tickets for the Lamson-Schmadr
mill, and who want their money re
funded are at liberty to exchange
iheir ducats at Ernie Holmes' bil
liard parlors. - .
J The announcement that Lamson
would be unable to meet Schmader
in the ring Wednesday night came
as a blow to Promoter Holmes
One of the largest crowd otsboxing
fans that ever atttended an entertain
ment of this character was expected
to be on hand when the two battlers
met. However,' the show will be held
as scheduled, but witht Smith and
Schmader in the main encounter.
"Gunboat" Smith, who is a vet
eran of the roped arena,-has met
"Battling" Levinsky, Jack Dempsey,
Fred Fulton, Billy Miske, Harry
Greb, Frank Moran and several
other heavyweights who have played
prominent roles in the boxing game.
Hundreds of fight fans in Omaha
today believe Lamson "crawled" out
of his scheduled mix-with Schma
der. Whether the Walthill Indian
"crawled" out of his bout or not, he
should not be allowed to enter the
ring in his condition, according to
Dr. Schleier.
. Wants to Box Schmader.
Under the boxing laws of states
where the fight game is legalized, a
boxer must be examined by a physi
cian 48 hours before the encounter
is staged. ,
"f am willing to box Schmader,
and want to meet him as soon as I
ai in condition." said Lamson. "I
am sorry this happened, especially
at this time, .but Dr. Schleier will
not permit me to continue with" the
bout. As soon as I am in condition,
and that will be soon after my physi
cian allows me to start training, I
will be ready to box Schmader any
place, at any time and for any pro
moter' in the United States."

Man o' War Will
Race forBig Purse
Will Compete With Sir Barton
At Windsor, Ont., Today in
Championship Affair. .
Windsor. Out.. Oct. 11. Man O'
War, greatest of '3-year-olds, and
Sir Barton, best of the 4-year-olds,
their active training finished, retired
mto the seclusion of Juxurious quar
ters tonight to await the greatest
race of their careers. Tomorrow the
champions will run a mile and a
quarter over the Kenilworth Jockey
club track for the thorouRhbred title
of America and stakes wortli $80,-
000. ,The race Will be run rain or
shine, and regardless of track condi
tions. Present indications arc that
the greatest crowd that ever ' wit
nessed a turf event in Canada will
crowd the Kenilworth enclosure.
Earle Sande, who will ride CQm-
mander J. K. L. Ross Sir Barton
tomorrow, and Clarence Kummer,
jockey for Samuel Riddle's Man O'
War, took their, rrfounts over the
course today in easy workouts. Im
mediately afterwards the horses
were' taken to their quarters. Train
ers and assistants tonight watched
the breathing of the animals and
guarded against interruption to the
sleep of their charges. Outside the
bungalow stables detectives patrolled
around barred entanglements.
Commander Ross tonight joined
with his trainers and jockey in prc
dictingtjiat Sir Barton "will not dis
grace himself in tomorrow s contest,"
In the Riddle camp the view is ex
pressed that Man O War b un
beatable. -
Intermittent drizzles of rain
throughout Monday softened the
surface of the frank, but not enough
so that fair weather tomorrow morn
ing will not dry it out and put it in
lightning-fast condition,
The two horses will go to the bar
rier as the only entrants in the fourth
race of tomorrow's Kenilworth pro-
gram. Man O' ,War will carry flat
three-year-old weight of 120- pounds.
Sir Barton will go the distance with
126 pounds.
Added interest is giyen the clash
in the fact that the horses arc tied
for the world's record for the dis
tance. Both nave gone a mile and a
quarter over the, same course at
Saratoga in 2:01 4-5.
Cleveland Wins Flag

Cleveland. Oct. 11. Sunday's

tlu to the fact that Brooklyn's share
must be split among 27 men,, while
only ' 22 Clevelanders will be re

to Mrs. Ray Chapman.

Amateur Banc Ball Officials
Plan to Raise Entry Fee for
" Association Clubs.
A plan whereby amateur teams in
the future, applying for member
ships in the various leagues of 'the
Municipal Amateur Base Ball as
sociation will be charged for, the
season's franchise is now being dis
cussed by officials of the associa
tion, according to J. J. Isaacson,
secretary.
The new plan of charginew ach
team $10 for the season's franchise
seems favorable to practically all of
the vdirectors, and when the as-''
sociatiAi officials meet, probably
next week, the Tlan niaybe adopted.,
In former years, the- association
depended entirely upon the funds
derived from the city and inter-city
championship contests to help de
fray the expenses of sending the
three divisional champions on trips
to other cities to represent Omaha
in championship games.
The financial endof the associa
tion was not any too large during
the present season, since the crowds
at the 1920 city series was far be
low that of former years.
After paying the expenses of the
Boweh team to St. Louis, bringing
the Sit. Louis team here, and send
ine both the Pearl Memorials, Class
B city champions and the-McKenny
Dentists. Class C city champs to
Kansas City. next Saturday Jhc funds
in the eratsury will be practically
exhausted.

"But I Know From Experience
What Tanlac Will Do,"
Says Wichita R. R. Man.
"I had no idea Tanlac "would f'w
me up so fine until I tried it myseli
and now I understand why so many
people were advising me to try it."
aid James W. Wilcox, 700 McCor
mick avenue, Wichita, Kan., a valued
employe of the Kansas City, Mexico

"I had been feeling under tin
weather for a goocL while and ha l
got to where I had to lay off
from work every few days. My ap
petite was practically gone and mv
stomach was so disordered that I
could not find a thing hardly I could
digest. To .tell the truth I wa
nearly afraid to eat for I would fill
up with gas so bad I could hardlv
stand it. There was an awful press
ure against my heart and at times it
nearly cut my breath off.
"Headaches, why. I had a head
ache every day that Came and black
spots often before my eyes and I
would get so dizzy' I could hardly
see. Right cross the small of my
back there was a dull, aching paic
and it was all I could do to get up
out of a chair without having some
body to Jielp me.
"Several of my friends had been
idling me all along that I had bette
try Tanlac, so finally I commenced
taking it. Well, sir, it took hold oi
my case right now and began to
rtraighten mc-oiit. The gas stopped
forming- and my appetite came back
bigger thanevcr and it wasn't Ion;?
until I was eating anything on th
table without it hurting me in anv
way whatever."' - J
"The headaches ' disappeared and
so did the dizzy spells and that pain
left my back. This was some time
ago but I have been feeling fine
ever since' and haven't missed s
minute's time from work. Like my
friends who advised me to try Tan
lac I am lellinz others about it nil
