Buffaloes Split
Double-Header;
Witches Win Two
Omaha Gives First Place Back
To Wichita George Boeh
ler Hurls Good '
Ball.
The Buffaloes lost their hold on
first place in the Western league
percentage column yesterday after
noon when they divided a double
header with the Tulsa Oilers, losing
the initial contest, 4 to 0, and win
ning the second game, 10 to 7.
George Boehler's dandy pitching,
backed up by good support, made
the Oilers look like a first division
team in the first game, lie held the
Buffaloes to five scattered hits, and
during the nine stanzas he held the
mound not a Buffalo scampered
down to second base in safety.
Glaiser was Burch's choice for the
first contest. This Buffalo hurler
was more liberal with his offerings,
as he was nicked for 10 hits, of
which two were doubles and one a
triple by Heving. The Oilers, how
ever, smacked hits out at opportune
times and when bingles resulted in
runs.
In the second game, Boss Burch
trotted out Daniels, Okrie, Mead and
then finally inserted himself into the
lineup. The visitors annexed a
grand total of 16 hits off the four
Buffalo hurkrs.
Pruitt started for Bill Clymcr's
gang, but after issuing two bases on
balls in the first he was derricked in
favor of Nick Cullop, recently se
cured from the St. Joseph Saints.
Cullop was touched for six hits and
then Boehler took-the mound.
The first game required all that
Boehler could dish out in the line
of good pitching, and the result was
that when, he went in to hurl in the
second game the Buffaloes clouted
him to all corners of the lot, win
ning, 10 to 7.

Local Net Star
Takes Straight
Sets From Iowan
Ralph Duke Powell of the Omaha
Field club retained his state cham
pionshlp title by defeating A. Phil-
brook Smith of Ames, la., in three
straight sets of 6-2, at the Field
club Saturday.
The local lad, who also holds the
city title, had nothing to fear in the
Iowa state champion, for Smith
plavs exactly the same game that
Powell does, and the Duke is the
master of the two at the backcourt
srame.
Both players kept to the backcourt
unless brought forward to make a
kill, both relying on their placements
to win points. Powell has the bet'
ter placements of the two, his shots
cutting the baselines and sucking
into the corners.
Smith made a few points when he
did take the net, but could not stand
the net for any length of time, and
found his way to the backcourt
where he unsuccessfully tested his
lawford against Powell s.
The small amount of applause Sat-
turday was n direct contrast to the
applause and exclamations of en
couragement during the Lowell
Brown match Friday afternoon. The
play yesterday was not as spectacu
lar as Friday's match, but it was just
as exciting and even more interest
ing, for Powell played a much bet
ter game.
VVray Brown of St. Louis and
Smith defeated Powell and Will
Adams in the semi-finals of the dou
bles, winning in straight sets of 6-2,
6-1, 6-3. The winners make a very
good pair, for both play hard driving
net games.
The lobs of Brown and Smith
were the best that have been seen on
the local courts for years. It is very
seldom that the hard-smashing player
can lob high and well, but the two
invaders proved themselves masters
of the art.
Wray Brown and A. Philbrook
Smith won the doubles champion
ship yesterday afternoon by defeat
ing Harry Coffin and Harold God
shall in the finals, 7-5, 6-2, 7-5.
The match was hard fought, both
sides winning on their own serves
until Brown and Smith began to
break through the California's
serves.
Miss Claire Daughertv and Har
old Godshall won the mixed doubles
championship bv defeatinp- Miss
Anita Currey and George Stocking,

THAT'S OUR IDEA in making CAMELS the
Quality Cigarette.
Why, just buy Camels and look at the package! It's
the best packing science has devised to keep cigarettes
fresh and full flavored for your taste. Heavy paper out
side secure foil wrapping inside and the revenue stamp
over the end to seal the package and keep it air-tight.
And note this ! There's nothing flashy about the Camel
package. No extra wrappings that do not improve the
smoke. Not a cent of needless expense that must come
out of the quality of the tobacco.
Camels wonderful and exclusive Quality wins on merit
alone.
Because, men smoke Camels who want the taste and
fragrance of the finest tobaccos, expertly blended. Men
smoke Camels for Camels smooth, refreshing mildness
and their freedom from cigaretty aftertaste. . " .
tCamels are made for, men who think for themselves.

State to Make Final Rebuttal
Tuesday and . Case Will

Chicago, July 31. Branding the
indicted White Sox players as "mur
derers of sport who, if allowed to go
free, would ruin base ball just as
racing and boxing were ruined," At
torney Edward Prindiville today
concluded the first half of the state's
closing argument in the base ball
trial.
Monday the defense will begin its
10 hours of argument, with indica
tions that Judge Friend will hold
court long enough for the nine at
torneys to finish their pleas. The
state will make its final rebuttal
Tuesday and the case probably will
go to the jury Tuesday. Six weeks
will have been taken up then.
Mr. Prindiville demanded the
maximum punishment for the in
dicted men.
"These men are killers," he said.
"They conspired to kill base ball, to
murder our greatest sport, to de
fraud the public and their comrades
even to defraud the children who
pay their bleacher admission fee to
watch their heroes play a game they
believe to be honest.
"A murderer deserves the utmost
in punishment. Eddie Cicotte, Joe
