"An armistice, even with the OBJ

ARMQURS FACE
ALL star TEAM
LED BY RACAN
Fast Game Scheduled a
Rourke Park Sunday Be-
tween ArmourS and
Star Professionals.

stionably the best game Of
base ball that Omaha fans have had
an opportunity to witness since the
closing the Western league season
is billed for Rourke park next Sun
day. An ali star organization has
been assembled by Pat Raglan OF
the Boston Nationals to battle with
the Armour team, winners of the
amateur clash last Sunday.
Raglan has agreed to appear on
the mound for his team. Although
not using the steam for which he
was noted while a member O, the
Rourke clan he has amassed a weird
variety OF curves and exceptional
control. He will have on the re-
ceiving end of his team, Jones of
the Council Bluffs Longeways. This
peppery little catcher is the most
promising ball players on the local
sand lots.
No chances are being taken by
the newly organized combination
OF defeat and Manske OF the Longe
ways and former Rourke will be
kept in the dugout as an emergency
hurler.
Have Fast Infeld.
On the infeld will be seen such
Omaha favorites as Dennison on
first base, Claire on second, Senek
on third and Nye at short. Nye is
former Rourke and now enlisted
in the navy.
In the gardens will be seen Hazen
against the scoreboard, Krug in the
middle field and Lyck, a Western
Lacquer from 500 City, will cavort
In the sun meadow. With this COM
binations the packers are assured
OF q stiff fight from the ringing Of
the gong.
The Armours have the old fight
and pepper that lasts until the last
man is out. Their confidence has
made them one of the most feared
teams in amateur circles and they
will never admit defeat until the
scores are counted.
The same team that has defended
the honor Of the packing clan and
earned host OF admirers will bat
tie with the stars. After looking
over the opposition lineup the team
was unanimous for playing the reg
ular team and confident OF sue
cess.
Large Crowd Expected.
Team work and the knowledge Of
each mans playing characteristics
will be wonderful advantage to the
amateur team. League will do the
heaving and Williams will appear
behind the plate. The balance Of the
team will be the same huskies who
hammered their way to the top of
the amateur heap and maintained
two ties for the league honors.
With continuance of the Indian
summer weather such as greeted the
players last Sunday a record at
tendance seems inevitable. The
teams are in tiptop shape and the
interest in the amateur teams has
been gradually increasing. John
Gonding will assist in managing the
stars, which will assure fast playing
on the part of the professionals.
