Buffaloes 1 How do you like that,
Mr! Reader, for a sickname ior the
Omaha Western league base ball
club? Pretty good, eh?
Well, Barney Bvitch, part owner
of the local franchise in the Western
circuit selected the "Buffaloes" as the
nickname for his team and that's all
we can say. Mike Finn left for the
training camp early, this week and
left the job. of ' selecting a name to
Barney and the latter had a tough
proposition on his 1 hands in pick
ing the winner.
The contest, which closed Marh
1. was a success from every angle.
Thousands of nicknames were rceived
and some pretty good ones were
sent in by the fans. .
The word "Buffaloes" is a popular
name already connected with ' the
sport world, suggestive of strength,
typical of Nebraska and the west. It
is a distinctive term that will
