BY William O. Blozics.

Secretary ]. ]. Isaacson of the
Municipal Amateur Base Ball asso-
citation has not had any further in
formation from President Tom
Nokes, of the National federation
in regard to the championship fray
between the Murphs and the east
ern champs for the worlds anna

tions the eastern association does
not care to play the Murphy's for
the title, at least not this season.
Nothing has been heard by the
officials, as to who the winners OF
the eastern association are, or why
they refuse to play the Murphy's.
the western amateur champions.
Meeting This Week.
Secretary Isaacson announced that
meeting of the association officials
and directors will probably be held
this week, at which time All Official

the 1919 amateur base ball season
declared finished. ..s. 49,.
This season, the first under the
Municipal Amateur Base Ball asso-
citation, was one of the most sue

will be the greatest ever witnessed

Plans will be discussed al the
meeting and several committees,

arrangements for next season, dur

everything will be iii great shape
when the 1920 season rolls along.

Difficult to Determine
Leading American Golfer
Indecision Regarding Foremost Professional Links
Expert in This Country-Jim Barnes and Walter
Hagen Most Likely Candidates, There Being Few
Others Worth Considering

not explain Barnes rarely is at his
best during the open. But his wins
this season have been remarkab BILE.
First, he captured the north and
south title at Pinehurst. In the carly
summer he won the Shawnee open,
tournament attended by the elite
always, by outstripping Mike Brady.
who was even with him after the
third round, by shooting bril-
liant 81.
Next he won the western open
with the lowest score for Il holes
ever returned in this event. At
Hamilton, Can, the following week
he temporarily lost his grip by ty-
ing for second with Bobby Jones,
the Atlanta boy crack, in the Cana
dian open.
But later at Atlanta he redeemed
himself by taking the southern open
from Jones by one stroke. In Sep
tember Barnes won the Professional
Golfers association championship at
match play, thus proving his versa
tility. The importance of this lat
ter tournament can best be realized
by saying it is the counterpart of
the one abroad, known as the News
OF the World"-Britain's greatest
golf event. These four wins in ma
jor events during the season stamp
Barnes as wonderful golfer,
equally good at medal and match
play and more consistent than any
other performer.
Both Hagen and Barnes are re-
markab1e golfers and in a class by
themselves in professional ranks.
Hagen is the more brilliant Of the
two and rises to greater heights, but
Barnes ranks with him because of
his consistency. 1t is tossup as to
which is the better, for each pos
sesses every quality so necessary in
competitive golf. They never get
excited or ruffled and each knows
how to play every known shot
Omaha daily bee., 1919-10-12

Each team having won one game
in last Sundays double-header. the
series for the Omaha City cham
pionship IS thus far a tie, but the
Murphy-Did-Its and the Armours
are determined that one or the
other of the teams shall have a
commanding lead after today's two
games. Manager Lawlor of the
Murphys declares that his team will
walk off with both contests this af-
ternoon, while Otto Williams,
leader OF the Packers says this is
the bunk" that his meat cutters
will grab both ends of the bill to-
day.
Regardless of who wins the
games, whether they take both or
only one apiece, it is more than
likely that the contests will be
thrillers. Each club is out for
vengeance for the defeat of last
week and they will spare no fair
efforts to grab both games. Butch
Hay will probably open the ses-
sions for the blacksmiths with

Armours will likely have Andy

the managers for the second game.
each hoping to spring surprise on
the opposing club. Lawlor will
probably start Hoffman and Will
liams will put Dyck or Franek on
the hill. All this may be reversed.
Lawlor hoping to catch the
Armours mapping and send Hoff-
man to the rubber in the opening
fray and Williams might think he
can catch the hammer swingers
with their eyes closed and put
Franek back against them.
1t is almost certainty that Andy
Graves will heave one of the games
for the Armours. In the past years,
Andy has been a sort of Jinx to the
local clubs. He has hurled against

with this reply. A. Mart Slattery
remarked, Plestina had his chance
with Stecher and fell down on the
job. They should be willing to let
someone else try it now, especially
SO when Slattery promises them the
next match, following the Stecher
encounter.
One of Pesek's friends, indignant
over Marsh's declaration that John
was taking" some of his matches,
rises to remark that Plestina, with
all his claims for Shooting" and
fair wrestling, is as bad faker as
there is in the game. He points out
that only short two or three wears
ago, in match billed between Pies
tina and Sailor Roberts, the huge
Slav wrestler met and threw Ole
Marsh. his own manager, under the
assumed name Of Roberts.
This is something that this friend
claims John never did. He never
wrestled anyone under an assumed.
name. He also points out that
Jack Meyers wrestled Plestina un-
der various names a number OF
times, using the name Jack Meyers,
Romanoff and some others. More
than this, he wrestled Jack Taylor
a half dozen times and then met
this same Taylor in New York in
an alleged championship match"
Friends of John Pesek have dug
up a lot of old history regarding
Marsh and Plestina and all they
seek is the right opportunity to
spring it. They seem anxious to
expose Plestina and his manager, if
they persist in annoying John Pesek
for match just at present. 1t
would be we'll for them to also de-
sist and let matters rest. The "old
dry" they can bring forth would not
do the wrestling game any good.
Every follower OF the mat game
in this section knows that Mart
Slattery and John Pesek are men Of
their word, and when they say they
will take Plestina on after they get
a match with Joe Stecher the Pies
tina match is as good as booked.
When Joe Stecher sees fit to accept
Pesek's challenge, then Plestina can
feel assured of next crack at Pesek.

By FRANCIS OUIMET.

1t is difficult to determine whether
Walter Hagen or Jim Barnes is the
leading professional golf player i'll
America, though based on their rec
ords this season and in the past there
is little doubt that these two men
lead the talent in their class. But
before dealing with this question of
comparison let US consider their per-
iormances and study their records.
Some golfers have the faculty Of
arising to great heights when the
national open championship is
played. Hagen IS one of these mira
Gle workers. So is Jock Hutchinson;
still another is Mike Brady. Hagen
IS always at his best in this fixture
the most important of all. Twice
in five starts he has won the title,
while on the other occasions he has
finished we'll up.
immediately after winning the
open this year Hagen annexed the
Metropolitan open from a field al
most as classy as the one he beat
at Bra: Burn. These two victories
following each other so closely
stamp Hagen as the greatest home
bred Of all time. Additional proof
of this is furnished when we state
that he has won every event Of i'm
portancc in American golf open to
professionals since 1914 at least
once and some Of them several
times. That is, excepting the Pro-
tessional Golfers association tourna-
ment. This championship has been
held but twice, Hagen competing
only the first time. 1t would seem
that he still has time left to annex
this trophy.
Although Walter Hagen captured
the blue ribbon event, good-natur
Lanky Jim Barnes deserves to be
bracketed with him as the best in
America" For some reason we can

In answer to the broad def issued
by c. J. Marsh on behalf of Marin
Plestina, Mart (Baldy) Slattery,
the business handler for John Pesek,
the Shelton farmer boy, says that
he will agree to a match with Pies
tina in due time, but right at the
present instant he is not ready for it.
Says Slattery, "Plestina had his
chance to show with Joe Stecher and
ne failed to make good. He stalled
with Joe SO long that the public be-
came disgusted with him. l have
worked with John Pesek for four
and half years to bring him up to
a point where he could make some
money out OF the wrestling game.
He hasn't had his chance, yet, and
Plestina has, so why should John be
the goat:
John and I have been after
match with Stranger Lewis and
Joe Stecher for a long time. We
have now reached the point where
we may demand such a match. A
go with Stecher. at the present time,
is the only one that John can get
that will make him any money. If
Plestina failed to make good when
he met Steeher. why should Pesek
be held accountable for that. Give
US the same chance. Let Pesek get
a match with Joe Stecher and I'll
promise you that the next match
John has, win or lose with Stecher,
will be with Marin Plestina. Can
anyone want anything fairer than
this!
I'VE want the same chance that
Plestina had, a match with Stecher.
Getting this, we will be ready for
Marsh's man, whether we fail in it
or win. Well give Plestina a chance
to try throwing John twice in 80
minutes and when the match takes
place, we'll make the Plestina crowd
stop betting. Johns followers will
flash so much money that Marsh
and his friends will be glad to take
TO cover. All we ask is a chance at
Joe Stecher and then we'll be ready
for Piestina."
It is true enough that Marsh and
Plestina picked on Pesek for a
goat" but they should be satisfied

PRELATE EXPLAINS SPEECH
ON Jews.

The Most Rev. DR.. Platon, Met
ropolitan of Kherson and Odessa,
Russia, and the senior surviving
Bishop of the Russian Orthodox
tChurch, who is visiting in New
York, in a statement sent to The
Times last night said:
"The New York papers of July
is, reporting my address before
meeting Of distinguished represent
.tatives of the Protestant Episcopal
Church, the Russian Orthodox, the
Greek and Rumanian Churches, I'm
fortunately, and I am sure unwill-
.ingly, misrepresented my thoughts
with regard to the Jewish problem
in Russia. I touched upon the Jew
ish problem in my address only in.
the most general terms, and the
Thoughts presented in the reports
on the meeting were built, not on
my address, but on my verbal an
,swers to questions asked by those
at the meeting.
"It is true that I said that among
other elements the Jews participate
also in the Bolshevist movement in
Russia. But I added, and this, un-
fortunately, was not reported by the
PAPERS, that the Jewish people GER
tainly cannot be held responsible for
the participation of its individual
members in the Bolshevist move
ment. This would be just as unfair
as if we would hold responsible the
Russian people, since there are Rus
slams who participate in the Bolshe-
visit movement.
Zone of the audience asked
whether I knew of the Bolsheviki
destroying or despoiling Jewish
synagogues. I answered that as far
as I know there was not a syna-
gogue destroyed, but this does not
mean at all that I consider Bolshe-
