Dick Breen's Redskins from Ok lahoma City turned on the Omaha Buffaloes yesterday afternoon at the Fifteenth and Vinton street pasture and chased the herd out of a 3 to 1 victory in the second and final game of the series. The contest was a pitching duel between "Southpaw" Mitchell of the Oklahoma City tribe and "Slim" Da venport of the Buffaloes, with the victory going to the lanky Redskin. An error, a single and double ruined the local's chances of clean ing the series with the Indians. Wright was first up in the fifth. He lined one down to Mike Massey. The heat must have troubled the buffalo shortstop as he permitted the sphere to elide through his mitts. Parker singled to right and Wright went to second, advancing to third when Mitchell forced Parker at sec ond. Runser popped out and then the fireworks started for fair. ? Pitt spanked the ball out to left T'or a two-base blow and Wright and Mitchell breezed across the platter with the two runs that put the In dians in the lead to stay. One Buffalo trotted over the pan in the fourth in the person of "Lit tle" Fred Haney. The Buffalo third sacker drew a base on balls to start the spasm with and advanced to sec end on Lee's sacrifice. Lelivclt clouted out a double to left and Haney scampered down to third. "Pug" Griffin dragged himself up to the plate amid the cheers of the customers and knocked a beaut of a sacrifice out to Mr. Moore. In the meantime Haney scored the lone Buffalo tally.

MENKE. (Copyright, 1921, by King Features Syndicate, Inc.) Marin IMestina will get a crack at the heavyweight wrestling champion ship of the world within six months. Jack Herman, manager of Stanis laus Zbyszko, the Polish title holder, has made that promise. And he guarantees it's to be a bout to an absolute finish. "You can place me on record right now as saying that Zbyszko will give Plestina a match before January 1, 1922," declared Herman. ;'It won't be a trick match; it won!t be to a referee's decision; it won't be a one fall affair. It'll be best two-out-of-three to a positive finish and it will be for a $10,000 side bet, as Plestina and Joe Marsh, his manager, have in sisted. "Plestina long has been offering a $1,000 bonus to Stecher, Wladek Zbyszko, Ed Lewis, Earl Caddock and Stanislaus, which money is to be paid the moment any of the five step onto the mat with him. Right here and now I'll advise Plestina to get ready to pass over that $1,000, for Stanislaus Zbyszko positively will wrestle him to a finish within six months from this date. Charge Wrestling Combine. "Some persons have seen fit to condemn me for my failure to give Plestina a match with Stanislaus last winter.

"What 1 could have been gained financially or in prestige by Stan islaus wrestling Plestina when neither was champion? By waiting around 1 got a crack at Lewis for Stan and Stanislaus showed his greatness by winning from Lewis with ridiculous ease. "And why not? Stanislaus Zbysz ko is the greatest wrestler in the world today and one of the greatest that ever lived. He's beyond 40 now but he is at his superlative best. He hasn't lost a match in 11 years which, I believe, constitutes the most remarkable record in mod ern wrestling history. Disagrees With Cur ley. "I disagree with Curley and dis agree with him completely in his assertion that Plestina is an over rated wrestler. If I thought he was a false alarm, I certainly wouldn't give him a match because I'd know that the affair would prove a fiasco. "Plestina is big and powerful with certain cleverness. He is a good man. He may force Stan to the limit to beat him but I don't think so. If I thought Stanislaus was beatable by Plestina, I wouldn't be sucker enough to agree to that $10,000 side bet that Marsh insists upon. I never bet on a wrestling match in my life. But I'm going to bet on this one because I feel it's like finding the money. "But there is one thing I will de mand for my man, win, lose or draw and that is the major portion of the purse. Zbyszko will be the real drawing card for that match not Plestina. Therefore, Zbyszko must get the bulk of the money. Wants Large Purse. "I don't think Plestina will kick very loudly on that. He has been trying for three or four years to get a crack at the champion offering bonuses for the privilege, offering to turn over his entire pnrse to charity, etc. All he wanted was a bout with the title holder. "Stan Zbyszko is the champion now. And, with the full consent of Stan, I hereby promise Plestina a bout no later than January 1, 1922. The only condition I make is that Plestina turn over the $1,000 bonus and that he take the small share of the purse for his work. If he wins, he will be sufficiently rewarded by pickings as a champion. If he doesn't win, that will prove that he's a bum wrestler and whatever he gets, no matter how small, will be enough."

Lenglen Explains How to Play Graceful, Winning Game (By International News Service.) Paris, July 30. Mile. Suzanne Lenglen, world's champion women's singles tennis player, speaks English almost as well as she plays tennis. She is a typical Frenchwoman, tall, graceful, with a wonderful carriage and a pleasant personality. She ra diates vitality. When asked to tell the women tennis players of America how she manages to keep so wonder fully fit she volunteered readily. "To play tennis well," said Mile. Lenglen, "one must be in perfect physical condition. It also follows that if you are not in perfect condi tion you cannot play. "Skipping and running are good exercises, but they should not be kept o.n. for too long a period. Leave off just before you are getting short of breath. 'But above all things one must be come supple. I attribute what agility I posses to doing Lieutenant Muller's exercises. Never a day passes but what I take those exercises some times in the morning, sometimes in the evening, and sometimes both. "There is no necessity to strain oneself; five to 10 minutes will suf fice to keep anyone sipple and in good condition. "If a girl came to me and asked me how to start tennis I should tell her to take Muller's exercises every day and never forget them. Then do some skipping and high kicking. Value of the Toes. "When on the courts keep on the toes all the time. It is surprising hew many people keep to the flat of their feet or on their heels when playing tennis. "It is a fatal mistake, for one can never start quickly other than from the toesi Those people who will not heed this advice will discover that they are always just too late for the ball. "After the pupil has mastered these highly important matters and has become much more supple than she was before she started she should learn to hold her racquet properly. "There is only one way to do this. Grip the end of the handle firmly in the playing hand and keep the grip on when playing a stroke. "Always cultivate the 'follow through' in a stroke much the same way as in driving at golf or at bil liards. Don't work from the elbow, but use the whole of the arm when making a stroke. Then the back hand and volleys will be, learned more easily. "And here is another point which is priceless. Keep your eyes on the ball. Anticipate where it is going to pitch, and be there to meet it. Never let the bail out of your sight. Watch it every fraction of a second andl Ik. keep on your toes ready to speed after it. "If the student will keep, these hints in mind she will have some thing material to go on. The rest is a matter of practice and the de velopment of the instinct of knowing where the ball is going to pitch. "But above all things she should not forget her Muller exercises, for they are all-important." (Note The Muller exercises are gymnastic exercises similar to those taught in America for physical de velopment.) Russell and Brief Lead in Home Runs "Reb" Russell, the hard hitting Minneapolis outfielder, failed to add to his home run record and Bunny Brief of Kansas City smashed out one four-ply blow and tied the big southpaw slugger at 21 apiece. However, Russell continues to top the batters of the American associa tion with an average of .374 as com pared with .387 a week ago. He brought his total base record to 230 on 135 hits, which besides his cir cuit drives include 24 doubles and 14 triples. Del Gainer of Milwaukee is the runner-up to Russell with a batting average of .368, according to aver ages released today and which in clude games of last Wednesday. The averages are for players who have participated in 55 or more games. Baird of Indianapolis burned up the paths the past week and pilfered five bases, stretching his string to 43.

Buy up staple line of thirsty gents' furnishings. Row back to former land of free lunch. Beach is lined with citizens with tongues hanging out so far they look like red neck ties. U. S. Booze Shipping board claims mystery boat is British scow. Hands across sea. Two fin gers used to be enough. English boat Pocomoke was chased by blue lawyers. She had red light on one side; green light on the other. But she was no drug store. Captain threw thousand bottles overboard. Revenue gin spectors chased her for sixteen bottles. Should have continued pursuit until they got two full cases. Tides used to be influenced by moon. Tides now controlled by moonshine. Two ways of traveling to Europe now. Either first glass or beerage. Soon have family entrance to ocean,, swinging doors on Gulf stream and back room where father will play pinochle with mermaids. Boat went ashore on rocks off coast. Customers refused to be rescued. Life-guard swam out to craft. Couldn't get aboard because he didn't know countersign. Crew wore bartenders aprons. Fright ened first-class patrons were on knees praying for more.
