THE BEE: OMAHA, TUESDAY, JULY 26, 1921. 1 Up - to Buffaloes Take First Game of Joplin Seriesj 1 I Witches Lose and Now Lead Omaha by Half-Game Glaiser Relieves Daven port in Seventh. , Bjrney Burch's Western leaguers troved a notch toward the top of ' the percentage ladder yesterday aft- crnoon when they trounced the Jop ' fin Minors in the first game of the si rics by the score -oi 11 to 8. One hig inning the filth in which the Omaha entry shoved six tallies across, proved more than enough to decide the is.ue. , Manairer Hurch .-.elected long, lean Claude Davenport to turn the Miners hack in the wash-day attraction. Other than ability to' get the ball over the plate, the six-foot Buffalo twirler had very little in a pitching vay. At that Davenport weathered tl rough the first six innings and is credited with winning the game. But, alter Cady's crew had laced his slants for three counters in the st ven th on two doubles, a pair of singles and an error, he was der ricked in favor of Mr. John Bert Glaiser. When it conies to relieving pitch-1 e rs, Glaiser is right there. When the rest of the Buffalo hurlers fall down, Burch always calls Bert to the front, i He went to the trout yesterday, and although it looked dark for him and his mates in the eighth, he succeed ed in holding the Miners in check until the last Joplin player had his ime at bat. Young started for the Miners, but , tie received - a first-class drubbing during the four innings he faced the romping Buffaloes. He allowed the locals exactly six hits, of which three were doubles. Lingle Hits Double. Southpaw Berger, who was trotted ut from the bench in the seventh stanza, was nicked for five hits, one of these being a double by Lingle in the fifth. D. Williams, Joplin left fielder, pulled the unexpected in the sixth frame when he clouted the ball to deep left for a fluke home run. It happened, however, that the bags were empty. To "Pug" Griffin, the heavy-hitting Buffalo right fielder, goes the honors of collecting the most tallies of the afternoon. The husky Omaha slugger is credited with there times at bat, knocking a double and single. He walked twice and reached the initial station once on a pass, scoring a total of four runs. It might also be added at this par ticular time that Lanky Davenport deserves a little space. It, all hap pened in the fourth franywith the score 2 to 1 in favor of 4(he Diggers, "v---Griffin got a' life on an error, was ' sacrificed to second and scored from yonder station when Davenport stretched his long arms toward East Omaha and sent the ball sailing for a single. But, when it conies to playing Santa Claus, Ray O'Brien wins the rubber earmuffs. This Buffalo t played the charitable act for his I. brethren just four times during the 1 contest. In the second his sacri v&jre moved Griffin up to third, and iiv'tlic fourth his second sacrifice advanced Griffin to second, while his third big brother act again push ed "Pug" up a notch from first. In the ninth. Griffin walked, took sec ond on a passed ball and advanced' to third on U linen s tourth sacri fice. Fifth Is Fatal. In the fifth the fatal fifth Young ct joplin crumpled before the stam peding Buffaloes. Hancy started the frame by walking. Lee doubled to left and Fred scored. Lelivelt swung Irs old trusty and clouted the sphere to right for a double, scoring Lee. Griffin walked and then O'Brien sac rificed, advancing Lelivelt to third and "Pug'' to second. Massey drew a base on balls and the bags were chucked when Lingle poled out his double to right, scoring Lelivelt and Griffin. Massey advanced to third and registered on Gislason's single I faney walked for the second time in the same inning and Lingle scored on Cady's error. Lee got his second chance in the fifth and drew a base on balls. Lelivelt forced Haney and the side was retired. In the sixth Griffin singled, took second on O'Brien's inheld out, stole third and scored on Massey's sacri fice to center. The. Miners collected one in the sixth when Williams got his homer. The seventh was good for three more Joplin scores when Christensen siigled and scored on Hamilton's -double to right. Moeller also knock ed a two-bagger and Hamilton cross ed the rubber. Walker singled and Hamilton scored. Haney Steals Another. In the eighth the visitors attempted to stage a rally when Christensen reached second on Lelivelt's error." Hamilton got a life on Lee's bobble and Christensen advanced to third. Mueller doubled and both Miners scampered home. The Buffaloes annexed their 11th run in the eighth when Haney singled, stole second his 25th stolen base of the season went to third on a sacrifice and scored on Lelivelt's single. The same teams play this after noon. Giants Buy Pitcher Vancouver, B. C, July 25. Max Kachac. star Ditcher of the Van- eouver Pacific International league ; i'-",' y:- 7 -rXn .

II t a. - Bate News and Gossip of Interest to Sport Fans Some Competition for Suzanne ' " f'C jT niiiiill' ' 1 '"""Tl MISS MARY K. BROWNE. ITRIBUNK Photo.) WHEN news of the coming tennis invasion of Mile. Suzanne Lcnglen of France was cabled from Paris, upholders of American supremacy could see no player on the horizon who seemed likely to defend our honors successfully against the many times champion of Europe. But the prospect of international competition and the hurry-up call for -talent which went ringing over the tennis courts brought Miss Mary K. Browne to a declaration she would leave her 4-year retirement in Los Angeles and play in the big eastern tournaments to fit herself for the match with the phenomenal French girl. Miss Browne, who won the American women's singles title in 1912, 1913 and 1914, and retired from play at the close of the 1916 season, when there seemed no contestant able to win from her, wiljhave company in her role of defender, for her friend, the famous Mrs. Thomas C. (May Sutton) Bundy. will accompany Miss Browne eastward to face the classy invader. Miss Browne was an adept at the hard smashing, volleying game when she retired from the courts, and late reports from California declare she has not fallen off in her game to any extent in the retirement of the last five years. She and Mrs. Bundy left for New York last week, preceded by their entries for several of the important annual tournaments in New England and around the metropolis.

Copyright 1921 b$ R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. WinstOB-Salsm. N. C i Cub Rookie Surprises New York By Trouncing Giants Recently New York, July 23 (Special.) Johnny Evers, manager of the Chi cago Cubs, trotted out his ne-.v pitcher, Virgil Cheeves, at the Polo grounds some days ago, and gave the Giants such a surprise that they have not yet recovered their equili brium. The Giants, evivdently, were in ignorance of the existence of Mr, Cheeves, and when he came out on the mound they and their friends gave him a reception which they thought was funny. They omitted the "v" from his name and dubbed him "Cheese," "Cheese it, Virgil," etc. Even after Mr. Cheeves had shot over a few good ones the Giants continued their playful antics and it was only after they saw the score go glimmering that they woke up and admitted that Virgil was some pitcher.. The misery attendant upon the advent of Virgil Cheeves may be best read m the score, which was 7 to 2, in favor of the Cubs and the Giants were able to make only four measly hits. During Virgil Cheeves' reign on the red clay throne he saw such phosphorescent lights as Fred Toney, Phil Douglas and Rube Ben ton twinkle for a time and flicker out as the lugubrious nine chapters progressed. Toney shone brightly for a while, but he finally became smeared and smothered by Chicago bats and ragged operations behind him. Douglas and Benton were helpless specks on a turbid horizon. Remarks about "camembert" and "de gorgonzola," bothered Virgil Cheeves not at all. He was as cool Wilson May Box Greb Next Month Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire. Chicago, July 25. Harry Pyams, the East Chicago promoter, pro poses to put on Johnny Wilson apd Harry Greb at the Twin City Ath letic club arena on August 16, weather permitting. The champion and the Pittsburgh bearcat will box for the tidy sum of $30,000, and Wilson's forfeit is already in the city. The promoters are waiting to hear from Greb, but they are not worrying that his check will be missing long, for he has been clamoring for a go with the middleweight champion for lo, these many moons. This should be a regular scrap. Wilson, who for a long time after he won the title from Mike O'Dowd sidestepped some of the best boys in his division, due, he said, to ill ness, has proved he is the cham pion by licking O'Dowd and several other scrappers of no mean ability. Greb is known to pugilistic fans as a tough customer in the ring. For a time it was thought he might get a chance at Georges Carpenticr, but lorn Gibbons was selected bv Tex Rickard to meet the Frenchman in October. Start fresh all over again at the beginning ! Get a pipe and forget every smoke ex perience you ever had that spilled the beans! For a jimmy pipe, packed brimful with Prince Albert, will trim any degree of smoke joy you ever registered! It's arevelation! Youneverpuffed such delightful, satisfying flavor; or, such fragrance! Why you just want to eat the zephyry smoke it's so fascinatingly good! Put a pin in here! Prince Albert can't bite your tongue the as the proverbial cucumber and about as smooth. From the second to the sixth inning the Giants looked very much like a Bernard Shaw 50 to 1 shot, as they lay becalmed be1 fore the rampant right arm of Vir gil Cheeves. In the sixth, after Burns and Bancroft had slithered into obscurity. Frank Frisch, who had a somewhat spectacular day in the Giants defensive department, rammed a rollicking home run into the lower right field stands. H chased nobody home but himself, however, and his foot was the last New York pedal to leave its im print upon the plate. 1 he tubs won the game m the seventh when Terry lifted a lopping single over second. If Cheeves comes back to this town again it is safe to say the Giants won't bother much about his name. As long as the Cubs are go ing nowhere m particular, it would look as though Evers might as well work his youngsters in regular turn and give them the benefit of a full season's experience. By next season the Cubs will prove a real peril. Rickard Admits Getting Film of FighUnto N. Y. New York, July 25. Tex Rickard, promoter of the Dempsey-Carpen- tier bout, and F. C. Quimby, mo tion picture producer, today admitted to United "States Attorney Hayward that they had caused a film of the fight to be brought across the state line from New Jersey.
