Treasury Expects
Benefit Of $4,000
From Worlds Series

Washington, Sept. 28.-The Unit
ed States treasury is expecting to
benefit at least $4,000 on the world
series base ball games. Each pur-
chaser of a tic,..et will have to pay
the customary admission tax of one
cent for each ten cents or fraction
thereof, which on the basis of last
years attendance will mean enough
money to pay the president for
nearly three months.
Brokers, it is believed will find
the business Of "scalping' tickets
this year at exorbitant prices much
less profitable than in the past,
inasmuch as there is tax of 50 per
cent on the excess charge.
Brokers will be required to regis
ter with the collectors of internal
revenue of the Cincinnati and Chi
cago districts before doing business,
and any violations of the regyla-
tons will be dealt with vigorously,
the law imposing a punishment of
one years imprisonment or $4,000
fine

Bee Juniors.

The Woodmen of the World team,
champions OF Division |, yesterday
afternoon won the 1919 champion
ship of The Bee Junior Base Ball
association.
The Lodgemen claim a forfeit
game from the Holmes Juniors, pen
nant winners OF Division 2, on &C
count of the latter team failing to
appear, and defeated the Meyers
Bearcats, champions of Division 3,
in fast and exciting game by the
score Of 4 to 2.
However. both the Holmes Jun
Tors and Meyers Bearcats have pro-
tested the games, the former claim
ing that the diamonds were too wet,
and the latter that no official UNI
pires were on deck. The Meyers
Bearcats agreed, however, accord
ing to Manager Smith of the Lodge
men, on the umpires and also agreed
to play.
1t is understood that the Juniors
had six men on the field at the
scheduled hour and several more
showed up a few minutes later, but
refused to play the game. The COM
mittee win decide on these protests
this week and it will be announced
in the sports page when the commit
tee decides.

Nonpariel Foot Ball
Team Organizing for
Big Season This Yea,

With the amateur base ball season
, drawing to close, amateur foot
ball will hold the center of the
stage, and it is expected that the
1910 season will be the greatest ever
witnessed in local circles of this sec
ton of the state. ... .....
One of the first eIevens to be or
ganized for the 1919 season is the
crack Nonpariels, city and state
champions. The Nonpariels after an
absence of one year, due to the fact
that many of the star players were in
the service of Uncle Sam, will be
represented in the field this season
by one of the fastest elevens that
has yet played under that name.
Phil Lynch, one of the best known
managers in this part of the state,
and also player of great ability,
will have charge of the Nonpariels
again this season. Over 40 candi-
dates have been trying out for a
berth with the Nonpariels, according
to Manager Lynch, and any foot ball
crack who wishes to try out is urged
to be at the Mason school grounds,
Twenty-fourth and Mason streets at
10 o'clock this morning.
Manager Lynch is arranging a
great schedule for the season, and
any team, in the city or out of town
wishing to meet the Nonpariels is
urged to get in touch with Lynch
at Red 8443 or address him at 252l
Hickory street. Manager Lynch
announced last night that the follow
ing men have already passed the test
and will be on the regular lineup:
Harry Williams, fullback; Hason
and Flanagan, halfbacks; Walter
Spellman, also well-known in local
amateur and professional base ball
circles, center; Raso and Casey,
guards; Pearson and Sandau, tackle;
Foran and Simpson, ends; Joe
Quinn, former star for the Carlisle
Indians, will also play with the Non
pariels. Practically all of the play
ers of the team were across the
waves Potts Sandau, former am
ateur base ball player who for the
past two years fought with Uncle
Sans army, and who was shot in
the leg, has fully recovered and ex-
poets to be one of the shining stars
of the eleven.
The sports department of The
Omaha Bee will handle the amateur
foot ball news in better and grand
er shape than ever before and any
teams organizing are requested to
send in their names. telephone num-
bers, names of captains and man
ayers, addresses or any information

HELPS "BUDDIE"
TO FIND WIFE
ANOTHER STEALS
Wounded War Hero Returns
Home to Find His Love Has
Been Desecrated.

Chicago, Sept. 2s.- Detective
Sergeant jain O'Mally OF the
bureau is working. on an assign
ment into which he is putting his
whole heart and soul.
He has been assigned to find Mrs.
Irene Sanders. The case isn't a
pretty one. Mrs, Sanders husband,
| Bert, went to France in the early
days of the war. There was a room
er in the house-John Hamilton,
Recovering in base hospital
after being wounded at Chateau
| Thierry, Sanders got letters from
neighbors telling him that Hamil-
ton was paying attentions to his
| wife. p
Convalescing from e second gas
sing in the Meuse offensive, the sol
der got more letters which told
how Hamilton was neglecting his
daily employment to remain at
home with Mrs. Sanders.
And when he came home, broken
in health, but with a fine standing
in the Second division and the rank
of sergeant, he found that the
love his wife once had for him was
cold.
Hamilton moved out when Ser
geant Sanders came home, but soon
after she left.
So Sanders went to the detective
bureau, and told his story. Ser
geant O'Mally listened with more
| than usual interest. He was a
bunkie of Sanders. They had been
in the same company in France.
Wants Her Back.
"Whateyer my wife may have
DONE" said Sergeant Sanders, 81
| am willing to have her return be-
cause of the children"
There are four of the children.
| If the mother doesn't return, they
will be sent to an institution.
"I'll find her." said O'Mally.

Electric Score Board
Being Installed at
Omaha Auditorium

Manager Charley FRANKIE is over
hauling and installing his monster
electric score board at the Omaha
Auditorium and will have it in work
ing order for the first game Of the
worlds series, Wednesday afternoon.
The board has not been used for
two years, since the telegraph conf
pany was unable to furnish the de-
scription of the game, play by play,
last wear, due to war conditions.
This year the scores will be received
at the Auditorium and reproduced on
the huge board, just as they happen
on the field, within few minutes
after each play takes place
This score board is so arranged
that every play is depicted almost as
soon as they happen, by means of
tiny electric lights. The ball may
be seen, from the time it leaves the
pitchers hand until it is fielded and
the play completed.
Base runners are shown on their
way around the bags, by means of
little white lights. The ball will be
shown as a red light. If caught, the
fielder catching it will be marked
with a green light. An error is shown
by the red (ball) light travelling to
the fielder. showing a green light for
an instant and then a red light again
thus displaying the ball again, and
showing the error.
Omaha fans, by watching the cleo
trio score board, may see the worlds
series without leaving the Gate City.
The affair is an invention of the pop.
ular manager of the Auditorium and
IS wonderful scheme to show every
play Just as they are made on the
field. The board will be i'll opera
ton for every game of the series.

The recent amateur golf cham.
pionship somewhat upset all Our old
notions of golf because it proved
beyond question that one stroke is
no more important than another and
that driving is as vital in winning
matches as putting. To be sure
Oakmont is unlike many other
championship courses i'll that liber-
ties are not permitted from the tees
as on other links. But as golf is
demanding better all-around game
each year this is an indirect way OF
complimenting Oakmont.
Naturally one is most impressed
in a game like golf when he goes
down to defeat. In my own case
| do not have to look for my down
fall. Time and again pulled tee
shot put me in such trouble that TN
less my ball was favored with>a good
lie a recovery was out of the ques-
ton. When Woody Plat put me
out OH 38th hole this was just the
case. A badly pulled tee shot left
me in such a position that it was out
of the question to reach the green
on my second. Piatt played fault
lessly from the tee to the cup and
won deserved victory
Blames Poor Driving.
| know that the vital strokes in
my matches at Oakmont we're tee
shots. My opponents won many
holes because of my having trouble
of this nature. So that, after all,
poor driving is invariably the cause
of many defeats. Dave Heron won
because of his superior putting, but
had he fallen down on his driving
it is extremely doubtful if his put
ting record would have been as
good. There is a mental hazard to
overcome in such a situation.
Time was once and not so many
years ago when a golfer could win
everything in sight if his putting
was up to the mark. Today, if he
does not drive we'll, he does not
have the opportunity to putt that he
otherwise would have. In other
words, on holes where good golfers
can reach the green in two he who
takes three strokes to get there ar
rives too late to win.
Showed Masterful Putting.
Herron's victory while due to his
masterful putting, was made posi-
bic because Dave had a game that

JACK DEMPSEY IS

SHOULD BOX SOON
Army, Navy and Civilian Box
ing Board Will Ask
Champion to De-
fend Title.

New York, Sept. 2S.-Jack Kearns
hardly can be blamed because Jack
Dempsey vas a failure as an actor
Nor can the pal and manager of the
worlds heavyweight champion be
accused of not trying to make
Dempsey appear as headliner
across the footlights. That the the
atrieal venture of Dempsey came to
an untimely end three weeks after
it started on a supposed IS weeks
tour was the fault only of the gull
libles who this time refused to fall
for the display. Every one wanted
to get glimpse of Dempsey, but
as to paying for the glimpse, that
was another thing.
Kearns' Impossible Dreams.
One of the primary aims of the
Army, Navy and Civilian Board of
Boxing Control is to force boxing
champions to put their titles at
stake at least once every six months.
Dempsey holds the first belt issued
by that organization and should be
the leader in living up to the rules.
While no one begrudges Dempsey
all the easy money he can squeeze
out of the boobs, it is high time that
boxing was helped bit by Demp-
sey. If he only would talk about
some ort(of scrap. it might sat-
isfy, but instead he allows his man
ager to ramble about meeting three
men in the same ring or some other
dream as impossible.
Meehan Might Repeat.
Right in this country there are
several heavyweights who might
make it interesting for Dempsey.
Willie Meehan of San Francisco
still thinks that he has the Indian
sign on the champion and is willing
to try to prove it. Bill Brennan
gave Dempsey the hardest battle
of his career, according to Dempsey.
Brennan might do the same thing
again if the two were to meet. At
any rate, Dempsey could get a tat
guarantee for a bout if he were of
a mind to sign up. r.,
That there are great possibilities
for Dempsey or a promoter OF
heavyweight title bout in New Jer-
sey was proved beyond cavil when
nearly $4,000 persons jammed into
the Jersey City base ball park to
watch Johnny Kilbane knock out
frankie Burns. Prices were fixed
at ST and 81 head, and even at
that the receipts. were nearly $4,000.
