Ouimet Defeats Evans
In Classic Golf Game
By One Up on Home Hole

Ouimet finished with total stroke
score of $50 and Evans with ISL,
while the medal winning score on
Monday was l58.
The comeback of the Woodland
expert was all the more impressive.
however, from the fact that he was
far from being i'll perfect physical
condition. Still suffering from the
effects of tonsilitisl and unable to
take heavy nourishment, he played
the entire 36 holes with but an oc-
casional sip of orange juice and
the effects of the strain and heat
began to show on the final nine
holes.
The players made but few mis-
takes during the morning play.
While Evans missed three puts
which he could have fairly expected
to hole. he sank three long ones to
make up. He only used 81 puts
during the morning round, five less
than an average of two puts to
green. In the afternoon he used
81 puts. Ouimet had 81 puts in
the morning and % in the after
noon. Ouimet had the better of 10
tee shots and Evans II. They were
all even when it came to approaches,
each being nearer the cup IS times.
Evans found himself in II traps and
Ouimet placed his bali in eight.

Nebraska Uni Drops
Out of the Missouri
Valley Conference

Kansas City. Mo, Aug. 20-(Spe-
cial Telegram.)- univer-
sity has withdrawn from the Mis-
souri, Valley conference. This &C
ton was taken today when the
Cornhuskers' request that they be
allowed to play one game in Omaha
this year under the auspices of the
medical department of the university
which is in Omaha, was denied at a
meeting of faculty representative OF
institutions in the conference.
The meeting was held for that one
purpose. Nebraska had tried to
carry on its business by correspon-
dence and had failed, so the meeting
was called. Nebraska explained that
the alumni of the institution, many
of whom live in Omaha, want one
game played there. This was done
before the conference passed rul-
ing few years ago that foot ball
must be played in the college towns.
This rule, Nebraska holds, was
passed because Missouri and Kansas
students became intoxicated after
the annual er-Jayhawker game in
Kansas City on Thanksgiving day.
Nebraska argued that because there
is prohibition now and Nebraska
never did win such ruling, it should
be allowed to play a game in Omaha.
The other representatives refused to
allow the Cornhuskers to change the
rule and they quit the conference.
This change in the makeup of the
conference will not effect Nebraska's
schedule this year. The Cornhusk-
ers will play all of the valley institu-
tons they have contracts with and
also will play a game in Omaha
But it has not been decided which
game it will be. The Nebraska rep
resentatives expressed regret that
they were forced to withdraw from
the organization, but said they could
see no other way out of it.

GAMES At
R0URKE PARK
FOR THIS week
Packers to Play Navy Team
Friday and CoIored
Stars Saturday
and Sunday.

The Armours open their series
with the Chicago Union Giants at
Rourke park next Saturday and
Sunday, notwithstanding that the
Giants have lost both of the pre-
vious series to the Armours, they
are coming back strong as mustard.
Manager Gilkerson of the Giants
has signed three new players in
Chicago. They are we'll known
here. Simpson, first lieutenant of
the 366th A. f. F., is one of the
best infielders in the country;
Brown Of the University of Illinois,
who is crack third sacker and
Peters is the son of old Union
Giants Peters. With this additional
strength the Giants expect to take
the series.
Manager Williams expects to put
his best lineup in the field and feels
confident of making a good showing
as both Graves and Dyck are in top
notch form. The Armours have
signed Echtmier, their crack first
baseman of 1917. Echtmier is just
back from overseas, where he spent
the last two years. Lefty Powers
will probably pitch the Saturday
game for the Armours.
The Armours were unable to book
the League of Nations base ball
club for August q and "a, but will
probably have them here Septem-
Der E and 7. This team is made
up entirely of A. T. F. soldiers.
Kid Graves will umpire the series.
Popular prices will prevail.

team at Rourke park next Friday.

Koch Makes Comeback
in Tennis Tournament

The courts at the Field club were
in such soft condition that most of
the players entered in the city tennis
championships thought there would
be no playing, consequently only
seven games were played in the
singles and but two in the doubles.

those who failed to play yesterday
will have double work cut out for
them today in order to speed up
the tournament.
The singles consola ton round was
started yesterday. The big match
in the singles occurred when Dr.

Pittsburg, Aug. 20.-(By The AS
ociated Press. l-Francis Ouimet

Pittsburg, Aug. 20.-(By The AS
ISOLATED Press.)-Francis Ouimet
demonstrated again today that he is
one of the greatest golfers ever de-
veloped in this country, by defeating
Charles Evans, l up, on the Home
hole of the Oakmont Country club,
in the second round of the annual
amateur championship tournament.
Playing the game with the same
stroke and nerve that gave him in
ternational fame in 1913, when he
won the open championship from
Ray and Vardon, England's most
famous professionals, the Woodland
club representative, playing from
Auburndale, Mass, fought through
out the entire day against the skill
and stamina of the Edgewatcr club
star of Chicago and eventually
achieved victory with marvellous
pitch from pit to home green and
a four-foot putt.
His defeat of the holdover anna
teur and open champion of 1916
came only after hours OF golfing
competition which was the closest
and most brilliant ever witnessed
in a similar titular tournament. All
even at the end of the forenoon IL
holes, the eastern and western rivals
renewed their duel in the afternoon
and for a short period 1t appeared
as though Ouimet was to quickly
clinch the contest, but he weakened
at the end of the third nine holes
and Evans was quick to take advan-
tage of the opportunity and after
being 3 down at one time, sue
ceeded in squaring the match at the
thirty fourth green. The next was
halved in threes.
The gallery, one of the largest
that ever witnessed a mid-week
tournament match in this country,
was absolutely silent as the pair teed
up for the home play. Evans drove
first and Ouimet followed, both
reaching far down the fairway with
long shots. Ouimet's second landed
in a deep pit to the right of the
green, while Evans was just on the
cage OF inc rough SOlHc ~ lCCt iolil
the pin. When Ouimet stepped
down into the pit, he was out of
sight of a large part of the spec
tators and a great shout of applause
sprang from the gallery when he
pitched the ball from a cloud of
sand to within 4 feet of the flag.
Evans masshie shot rolled II feet
past the cup. The double title hold
er's putt fell short of the hole by 3
feet. Ouimet followed with gentle
tap of his ball, which rolled leisure
ly to the lip of the cup, paused for
the fraction of a second and then
dropped out of sight, thus terminal
ing one of the most remarkable
matches in the history of American
golf.
Honor to Evans Too.
Not all of the glory Of the days
golf goes to Ouimet, for the manner
in which Evans fought and forced
the victor is shown by the fact that
there was but difference of one
hole and one stroke at the end of
one of the hardest matches ever
played in an amateur championship.

You Will Never Be Cured by
Local Treatment With Sprays.

Catarrh is a condition of the
blood and can not be cured by
local applications of sprays and
douches; this has been proven by
the thousands who have vainly re-
sorted to this method of treat
ment.
Catarrh should not be neglected
or experimental with. The wrong
treatment is valuable time lost,
during which the disease is getting
a firmer hold upon its victim, and
making it more difficult for even
the proper treatment to accomplish
results.
Though Catarrh makes it's first
appearance in the nostrils, throat
and air passages, the disease be-
comes more and more aggravated
