KILDUFF'S ERROR
LOSES FOR OMAHA
Kewpie Makes Wild Throw at
Critical Time and North
Is Vanquished.
RoURKEs HAVE HARD LUCK

Kewpie Kilduff cut loose a two
base wild throw at a critical time
yesterday and Lou North dropped a
hard-fought pitchers battle to Rus
sell Ford, 2 to |. Thus did the
Rourkes open their eighteen-day
home campaign before some 800 Wis
iting merchants and couple of ad-
ditional hundred local fans.
Kilduf's costly miscue occurred in
the eighth stanza, when things were
looking pretty rosy for the Rourk-
lets. After Cole had tipped single
OYER the keystone sack, George Shes
I lax directed an easy grounder toward
Kewpie, who felded It in pretty style.
A double play seemed imminent But
Kilduff fired the pill couple of feet
over Marty Krug's head. Before Cy
ForsytheY could recover the escaped
ball, Cole had negotiated the circuit
as far as third and Shestak was on
second.
Lloyd Delivers. '
North put lot of stuff on the ball
and managed to Whit Ford. After
stringing along to three and two
count, Davy Lloyd, who has always
been a lucky ball player, hit puny
blow which bounced over North's
head, rolled over second and into
center field. Lloyd's hit would have
been converted into an out had not
the infiefdrbeen drawn up for a pos
sible play at the plate Both Cole
and Shestak romped honiet on the
single ID
Despite the fact that Omaha lost,
the fans. went home we'll pleased be-
cause it was a good ball game. With
out trying to alibi themselves, the
Rourkes can we'll say they were out
Tucked, for every break in the game
went Denyer's way. y
Ford is Fortunate.
Ford allowed but four hits, but he
was hit hard enough to have given
fourteen.
In the fourth inning Marty Krug
opened with a double. Then Thomp-
son, on an attempted sacrifice, pop
<ped abunt fly right into Shields
eSove. ....
In the subsequent stanza Forsythe
walked and Kilduff singled with none
out. Joe Burg did the same trick
Thompson, did the second inning
popped a bunt fly which Shestak
caught. Shestak then doubled For
,ythe off second.
Over Fence But Foul.
Bobby. Marshall, opening the
ninth, hit one over the fence, but
it went foul. Then he almost
knocked Willis Coles teeth out with
a line drive to right. Willis threw
up both hands and held the ball.
In the seventh Ray Miller almost
killed Shields with liner. That
was the kind OF luck the Rourkes
played in all afternoon.
e The lone tally scored off Ford was
made in the seventh. After Miller
went out, Marshall doubled to right
and scored when Forsythe sunk a
neat single into left.
The Rourkes and Grizzlies battle
again this afternoon at Rourke park.
1t will be ladies' day. Game called
at Sis o'clock.

AFTER GOOD START
PHILADELPHIA LOSES
Detroit Locates Weakness Of
Pitcher Williams and Then
Goes After Him Hard.
COBB BATS HOME RUN

Detroit, Aug. 10. - Philadelphia
wound up its western trip here today
with 10 to 4 defeat, after getting a
two-run lead. Detroit discovered
Williams weakness early and hunted
and stole with reckless abandon. Two
safe hunts started the fifth and three
double steals were worked during the
contest. ..
Mitchell started for Detroit, but
was forced to withdraw at the end
of the sixth because OF illness. Burns
also was on the sick list. Cobb, in
the eighth, hit the first home run ever
sent into left field corner inside the
park. The drive usually is good for
two bases, but slow fielding and fast
sprinting let him score handily. Score:

If the railroads had been earning in

just such narrow-headed officials as
Jack Love that has thrown the rail-
roads OF the country in the financial
straights they now find themselves.
The greatest asset to a growing State

Jack Love TO drive them out Of bus
