Meeting to Discuss
After-the-War Trade
Held by Firestone Co,

The organization of the Firestone
Tire & Rubber Company, under the
jurisdiction of the Omaha branch
will hold business meeting Friday
and Saturday at the Rome Hotel.
Dealers from the states of Wyom-
ing, Colorado, Nebraska, Iowa and
South Dakota will be present and
the meeting will start off with a
banquet Friday evening.
The object Of the meeting is to
discuss the business which con-
fronts the tire men during
ing the reconstruction per-
iod. Every one seems to feel that
things will get back to normal in a
very short time and that there will
be no hesitancy on the part of the
buying public.
w. B. Alexander, newly appoint
ed manager of the Firestone, Omaha
branch, seems very enthusiastic
over the outlook. Frank Starbirg,
manager of the factory tire depart
ment and w. r. Cartwright, man
ager' of the truck tire department,
will be present during the meeting.
Another object of the meeting is
to acquaint dealers and statesmen
with a new Firestone policy which
calls for the installation of solid
tire presses at all important points
throughout the territory in which
Firestone tires are sold. This plan,
according to Mr.. Alexander, will
eliminate great deal of delay &C.
.casioned by the necessity of send
ing to the larger towns to have solid
tires pressed on.

Mix in a Workout THURSDAY

u The Creighton varsity and Fort
Omaha football teams met on the
Fort Omaha field in a light scrim-
mage workout Thursday afternoon.
After 10 minutes, in which both
teams had time to try their various

According to Father McWilliams,
Creighton athletic director, his team
has several eripples, but has not
lost its fighting spirit.
we are very anxious to beat the
Kansas Aggies," said Father Nc
Williams. 1T is the most significant
game of the year, first because it is
the first Missouri Valley team to

years, and second because the Kan
sas Aggies are really strong team"
With reference to the conflicting
schedules of the Creighton-Aggie

CREIGHTON and
KANSAS AGC|ES
MEET SATURDAY
Game Promises to Be One Of
Best of Season; Aggies
Have a Strong
Team,

For years Omaha football fans
have been clamoring for a game be-
tween Creighton and some Missouri
valley conference school. At last
their hopes will be realized when
Coach Mills warriors will clash with
the fast Kansas Aggies for the
championship of the valley, Satur-
day.
The Aggies are considered to be
the fastest team west of the Missis-
sippi and are bringing with them
nine veterans who are the terrors
of the west.
The Aggies have won every game
played this year and experts class
them as one of the best teams in
the country including both college
and army teams.
Creighton proved its claim to
the championship by defeating Ne
braska Wesleyan 90 to 0 while the
University of Nebraska which is con-
sidered to be one of the best teams
in the country only beat the same
team II to 0.
Creighton, although three regulars
are crippled, is in great trim and
is confident of victory. Hull. the
fast end who has been playing a
great game, is in the hospital i'll
with the flu. Jimmy Condor and
Don Manley, the halfbacks, are still
on the crippled list but will be able
to play if necessary. However
Creighton has two good halfbacks
in Mulholland and Lucas. Null
holland being one of the best in the
west, while either hammers or Jerry
Handley will play end in place of
Hull. These two youngsters are
playing great game despite their
weight, Handley weighing only 1873
pounds, while Shevlin will continue
to play at Lucas end.

Chicago American Players
in ARMY Can Have Jobs Back

Chicago. Nov. 14.-Charles A.
Comiskey, owner of the Chicago
Americans, is too happy over the
sudden ending of the world war to
think about the resumption of pro-
fessional base ball.
There will be time enough for
that later on" said President Com
isky. Manager Rowland and have
not made any plans for next season.
A few months ago things looked a
bit dubious for everybody, and the
chances for base ball were anything
but bright, but the good news came
sooner than we expected.
II can say, however, that every
member of my ball club who enlisted
will certainly find job waiting for
him when he returns. I hope they
all will be back with u.s."

BASE BALL WAR
LOOMS, RESULT
Of MINORS Def
National Association Demands
American and National
Leagues Relinquish the
Right Of Draft.

Peoria, ILL.,, Nov. l4.-War be-
tween the major leagues and the
minor organizations OF the country
threatens to develop as result of
the action taken at the annual meet
ing of the National Association of
Professional Base Ball League here
today protesting against the priv
ileges of the major leagues to draft
{ star players from the minors.
The protest was embodied in a
1 resolution drawn by A. R. Tearney
Of Chicago, president of the Three
Eye league, and presented by Jack
Holland.
The resolution demanded that the
American and National leagues re-
linquish the right of the draft and
also the practice of farming out"
players under the optional agree
ment. 1t was adopted without dis
senting vote.
Committee to Present Protest.
Thomas ]. Hickey, president of
the American association urged the
minor league organization to with
draw from the national agreement
with the majors if the demand is
refused. A committee consisting of
Holland, Tearney and Joe Tinker.
owner of the Columbus club of the
sAmerican association, was appointed
to present the protest to the Ma
tional Base Ball commission at its
first meeting.
The salary limit of class A leagues
was fixed at $1,000 a month; class
/ B, at $1,000; class C, at l,400 and
class D. at 1900. The clubs will be
required to deposit substantial guar
antees with the league presidents
and failure to enforce the salary
limits will result in a fine for the
first two offenses and forfeiture of
their franchise for the third offense.
l, Population Standard
The classification of the new
leagues to be organized after the
war will be determined by the ag-
gregatc population of cities COM
prising the circuits. Class AA
leagues must have an aggregate
population of 1,750,000; class A, |
100000; class B, 100000 to 1,0O0,-
600; class c, 100000; class D, under |
100000.
& In connection with the reclassi-
fcation problem, which was fostered
by President Tearney. John H. Far
rell of Auburn, N. Y, secretary of the
National association, ruled that the
territory formerly claimed by the
Three Eye league, Central league
and Central association was now
open.
After adopting half dozen reso-
lutions to protect their rights and
privileges in territory and players
against possible further suspension
