FIELD CLUB BEATS OLD RIVAL
Defeats COuntry Club i'm Exciting
GRme-ScOre % to Z.

GRme-ScOre % to =,
The Field club base ball team struck
its winning gait again Saturday afternoon
by defeating its old-time rival. the South
Omaha Country club, on the latter's
grounds, the score being 3 to Z. Interest
was at a high pitch throughout, the score
going to a tie at three different stages.
In the seventh inning the Field club
worked up a lead of two scores and in
creased it to four in its half of the ninth.
When the South omahans came to bat it
looked for a time as though the tide Of
battle might change. They ran in two
scores and with two men out and two men
on bases. Adams lined out a hard. one
deep into left field, bringing the South
Omaha rooters TO their feet. Eddie O'Brien
shattered all hopes of further scoring, how
ever, by making a beautiful catch after
a long, hard run. and the game was over.
Both pitchers did good work, Brodbeck
being particularly effective in light places.
In the second inning he retired the Coun-
try club men on three balls pitched. Schultz
pitched good ball up to the eighth inning,
when he weakened. He gave way to
Adams In the ninth. In addition to pitch
ing well in the early stages of the game,
Schultz carried off the batting honors for
hts team by getting. two nice drives, one
of which was good for three bases. For
the Field club batting honors were d.
vided. Creighton has a two-base hit to
his credit, Abbott has a three-base hit be-
hind his name and Dougherty got three
hits In four ines at bat. KennaTd's one
hand catch of a hard line drive was a
fielding feature, Next Saturday a return
game Will be played on the Field club
grounds. The score:

A combination of youthful golfing skill
and college match playing experience is
more common now, and under the doc
tfine of chances the title is due to the
west this time. Byers is another who
owes much Of his game to the practice
and zeal acquired at college. OF the run

New Assessment Proposed

Governor Cro.hers has declared him
self TO he in favor OF a new assessment
OF property throughout the whole
State This means that in his next
message to the General Assembly he
will urge the passage OF law en-
bodyirg his ideas.
A message by Governor Croihers 10
the General Assembly will mean more
than the ordinary gubcrnatorial mes
sage. il the General Assembly is De-
mocratic, for he is upon most excel
lent terms with the organization OF
his party When practical results are
concerned this means much. Ii means
that the Governors party will line up
solidly behind him. Hon Edwin War
field was most excellent governor.
When question OF practical results
was considered there was a different
story. The Democratic party organi-
cation did not back up Governor War
field. II did back up Governor Smith.
II is backing up Governor Crothers.
II is. therefore, safe to say that the
General Assessment Bill, applicable to
the whole state, as approved by Gov
crnor Crothers. will have a most ex-
cellent chance al becoming state
law, provided, OF course. the Demo
cratic party controls the two houses
and i vested with the taxing power
