Buffaloes Trample Over Indians In First Contest of Three-Day Series
THE BEE: OMAHA, FRIDAY, JULY 29. 1921.
Locals Cling To
First Place By
Superb Playing
Frank Okrie Hurls Good Ball
Allows Five Scattered
Hits Receives Error,
less Support.
By RALPH WAGNER.
OMETH1NG like 50
years ago the Indians
were chasing Buffaloes
iver the plains of Ne
braska, and even right
here in certain sections
of Omaha.
But, times have
changed. Base ball
clubs have been formed.
Buffaloes have been put in parks in
closed with fence and Indians are
lept on reservations.
Yesterday a tribe of Indians, who
escaped from their reservation down
in Oklahoma City last Wednesday,
came to Omaha for the express pur
. pise of capturing Burch's herd of
lHrTalocs, the only ones in the West
ern league, but after nine innings the
Red Skins discovered that it required
wore thag just common ordinary ball
playing to win over the Buffaloes.
The score, by the way. was 6 to 2,
which docsn t half tell the story.
Lea Scores First.
In the olden days, so old-timers
say, Buffaloes didn't have much love
for Red Skins. The same thing was
true yesterday. The Omaha herd
started pulling away from the Indians
it the initial round when they scored
one tally. Buffalo Lee singled and
Hole second. The Indians were
. asleep. Lctivelt got a life when a
1 Kca Skin mane an error ana i.ec ad
vanced to third. The Buffalo first
aseiran started to second and Lcc
Jticked up the dust down the path to
home, and before the Indians could
open their glimmers Lee had crossed
the pan with the initial counter.
Nothing happened that caused, the
customers to exercise their vocal
chords in the second stanza, save
a double play by the Red Skins and
Buffalo Okrie's splendid pitching.
In the third spasm four Buffaloes
made tracks over the home plate.
Okrie doubled to left and advanced
to third on Gislason's single. Haney
forced the Buffalo pitcher at the
plate and the game was resumed.
t Lee slapped wie of Pitcher Ston
cr's deliveries on the nose and sent
the ball out to right field for a
dcuble, Gislason scoring and Haney
advancing to third. Lclivelt walked
and all the bags were occupied by
Buffaloes. Griffin forced Lelivclt at
second and in the meantime Haney
scored the third Omaha tally.
At this section of the contest oiie
Red Skin by the name of Dick
Brecn, manager,- started on the war
path. Brecn was of the opinion that
1 Griffin - Was - out "- At 'first, but his
'opinion didn't amount to much, as
"I'mn" Burnside ordered the Indian
, off the field. Red Skins arc kinda
contrary and Breen isn't an excep
tion. He walked over to his team's
dugout and planted himself on the
bench. But. that didn't satisfy Burn
side. A policeman was called and
Breen was escorted off the field,
leaving the Indians without a man
ager to finish the battle. Then Lee
scored his second run and Griffin his
first on O'Brien's single to right.
Score Final Run in Sixth.
The fifth resulted in the sixth and
final Buffalo counter when Haney
tripled to center and scored on Lc
ltvelt's sacrifice.
During eight innings the Indian3
were unable to solve Okrie's deliv
ery. Oklahoma City collected five
scattered hits in the eight rounds
and was not able to shove a player
past second base. This was due
to the good pitching of the Buffalo
southpaw coupled with the errorless
Omaha support.
However, in the ninth the Indians
went on the warpath and nearly
chased the Buffaloes out of a vic
tory. , Heatley nicked Okrie for a
single. Harper was an easy out,
but Shanlcy spanked the ball out to
center for a double, scoring Heatley.
Graham poled one out to center for
a single and things looked bad for
the locals. Wright doubled to cen
ter and Shanley scored the second
and final Oklahoma City tally.
Parker forced Graham at the plate
for the second out and Salisbury
went in to hit for Stoner. He popped
out to "Cy" Lingle and the game
ended.
The credit of winning the game
rests on the broad shoulders of a
: southpaw who learned to play ball
. and pitch on a city league team in
Detroit in 1919. This hurlcr is
Frank Okrie, who joined the club
early this month down in Tulsa. He
pitched a dandy game yesterday,
fooling the Indians time and again
with his underhand shoots.
Frank started playing "pro"' base
ball in 1919. He was a member ot
one of the teams in the Detroit city
league and it was while he twirled
' i'.c horschide over in that city that
hi atracted tthe attention of the De
troit Tigers' manager.
Drafted by Detroit.
In the fall of 1919 be was drafted
by the Tigers and remained with the
Detroit Americans until about the
Tigers and remained with the Dc
mkldlc of the 1920 season, when he
was released to Toledo of the Ameri
can association, where he remained
" until coming to Omaha.
During the nine innings he pitched
yesterday the Indians only nicked
him for nine scattered hits, of which
' two were doubles in the ninth. He
issued but one pass and struck out
two redskins. .Besides doing all
this in one afternoon. Orkie started
a rally with a double in the third
inning that resultedi in four Omaha
scores.
Stoner of Oklahoma City also
pitched a ogod game, allowing the
Buffaloes but nine hits. However,
the locals clouted the sphere at op
portune times and displayed better
base running, thus the Buffalo victory-
The same teams meet this after
Harold Godshall, Los Angeles
champion racquet swinger, is on his
way east to defend his doubles title
in the national junior tourney. With
him is Harry Coffin. GodshalPs for

Boxing Bill Goes
Into Effect Today
All boxing and wrestling contests
staged within the boundaries of Ne
braska after today will be regulated
by the American Legion's boxing and
wrestling bill, which becomes a law
this morning.
When the bill goes into effect
Omaha will be allowed seven clubs.
These seven clubs must be incorpor
ated for at least one year before
they can hold shows.
Alreadv seven clubs have applieii
for permits to hold shows, according
to word received from Lincoln.
Lum Dovfe, Lincoln attorney and
former University of Nebraska
athlete, has been appointed state
boxing commissioner. Under him
come the district, representatives or
commissioners. It will be the duty
of these district commissioners to
inspect the shows held by the clubs
and to o. k. the program each club
arranges before the state commis
sioner issues a permit.
1 he clause tn the legion bill which
says that only clubs incorporated at
least one year and ooerated for no
personal benefit be issued licenses, is
a hard blow to the local promoters.
Several Omaha boxing and wresH
ling promoters were in hopes of reap
ing a small fortune this winter by
staging iisttc encounters and mat
contests, but, alas, nothing doing.
Iwas a hard blow, Mr. Promoter.

White Sox Club
Makes $409,337
Financial Secrets of White Sox
For Last Six Years Bared
At Trial of Players.
Rjr The Associated Press.
Chicago, July 28. The financial
secrets of the Chicago American
league base ball club were revealed
in the base ball trial today, when
the defense resumed its bombard
ment of evidence presented. The
club's books showed a net profit of
$409,337 during the past six years,
including more than $225,000 in 1919
alone.
Harry Grabincr, secretary of the
club, brought the records into court
at the request of the defense,- which
wanted to prove by them that the al
leged sell-out of certain White Sox
players in the 1919 world's series
had not injured the club. The fig
ures showed gross receipts of $2.
622,858 for the six years. In only
one year was there a loss 1918
when the war cut the season short.
Tre deficit then was $51,673.
Coniiskcy draws an annual salary
of $50,000, Grabiner testified.
Zork Makes Showing.
In addition to Grabinef's testi
mony, several witnesses went on the
stand today to testify for Carl Zork,
St. Louis defendant who has been
promised his freedom unless more
evidence is introduced against him.
ihey contradicted much of the evi
dence presented against the St. Louis
man and testified to his good
character.
E. P. Melrose said he was with
Zork the evening after the fourth
game of the 1919 world scries the
time Zork said, according to Harry
Redmon's testimony several days
ago: "I am the little red head from
St. Louis who started the whole
t'cal," referring to the alleged game
throwing.
Zork and I had uinner together
and Rcdmon just dropped in," said
Melrose. Zork never made a remark
about starting any deal and never
said he bet $2,000 to $8,000 on the
White Sox after the fourth game as
an alibi or for any other reason.
Played Billiard Game.
At 7:30 p. m. we met Sid Keener,
u St. Louis newspaper man and he
and Zork played billiards until about
845 p. m., Zork and I went to his
hotel and I took him to the train.
He left at 9:20 p. m. for St. Louis.
Keener corroborated Melrose's tes
timony concerning the billiard game.

The feature match brought de
the Omaha Field club tennis courts a
bath. In fact, he gave the courts
such a soaking with 1120 that it
was necessary for the state tourna
ment committee to postpone all
matches scheduled for today.
Yesterday's feature match brought
feat to a local player, namely
Harry Koch. Carl" Meyer of Kan
sas City did the trick, defeating the
former state champ in two straight
sets of 6-3, 6-2. The local man put
up a good fight to show that he's not
a "has been," but the easy sweeping
strokes and clever licadwork of tliu
Missourian were too much,
Joe Adams made a strong come
back in the second set of his match
with A. Thilbrook Smith, Iowa state
champ, but lost in straight sets.
6-0, 6-4.
Godshall and Coffin matte a real
comeback in their doubles match
with O'Ncil and Banister, defeating
the local players, 7-S, 6-3. The
Omahans had set point four times,
but a rally by the visitors darkened
the hopes of Percy and Eddie.
Art Scribner's backhand held no
terror for Wray Brown of St. Louis,
for Mr. Brown placed the ball where
the former city champion's famous
stroke could not be used to any ad
vantage, and won in straight sets of
6-0, 6-3.
Godshall's match with Nichols did
not speak so well for the Californian.
He played splendid tennis during the
first day, but didn't seem to get
started until the latter part of the
Nichqjs match when he walked all
over his weaker opponent, winning,
6-4, 6-3.
Mary Gant. former state champ,
was defeated by Mrs. J. White, sis
ter of State Champion Anita Currey,
by the score of 7-S, 6-4. Mrs. Whita
had a big advantage in a bard serve
which Miss Gant was unable to re
turn during the first set. Miss Gant
made many points on her placements
and on Mrs. White's lets, while her
opponent excelled in a hard drive.
