game, it will be remembered, was
staged at Luxus park in the early

ROURKES GATHER
IN FIRST CAME
Of JOPLIN TRIO
Take Lead in Series by
Score of 4 to 3, Coming
From Behind to Win
Contest.

Speaking of comebacks, the
Rourkes showed a decided reversal
OF. form yesterday afternoon, trim
ming the Joplin club by a 4 to
5 score, after they were left in
the hole, three rims to the bad. The
visitors scored one in the second
frame, Hall, the Joplin right fielder,
smacking the pill over the right
field wall for home run. In the
fourth inning, Hulswitt landed on
one headed in the same direction,
but it hit the ground first and
bounded over the fence for homer,
scoring Boehler ahead of the hit
ter.
The real blow-off occurred in the
fourth inning, with the Joplin pair
and Omaha coming through with
three. Donica led off with scream
ing single. Pitcher Mapel passed
Kirby purpostly to get Spellman,
who cracked out two-bagger, scor-
ing Donica. Kirby was held at
third. Hazen walked and Mason
drove a single over second on which
Kirby and Spellman counted. Burk
struck Gil. ard Gislason's pop foul
Was caught by Smith behind third
base, nut the score was tangled.
There was no change in the count
In the fifth and sixth innings, but

famed first thing. Gislason slapped
out a neat single Jackson popped
to Smith, and Boehler dropped Ora
hams long fly in left field and Gis-
Jason trotted home. Graham stole
second but died there when Donica
poled high one which shortstop
Thompson gathered in.
There was no further excitement
during the game, the Joplin's going
out in one, two, three order in the
eighth and ninth. Kirby walked for
the Rourkes in the eighth, but died
on first, Spellman flying out to cen
ter garden and Hazen and Mason

they were scheduled with the White
Sox. Bert Murphy, hacker of the
Murphy-Did-lts, left the decision up
to President Dennison of the league.
according to Pickett, the Holmes
players insisted that the game be
played Sunday or never. A lively
session was held yesterday after
noon and finally it was agreed to
play the game. Said contest will
start at $3.50 o'clock at Fontenelle
park, and no doubt will be the big

Manager Pickett also announced
definitely that Jimmy Moore will
continue to play with the Holmes

been announced in other local news

HOT SKIRMISH. IS.
EXPECTED AMONG
GOLF LEADERS
Eighteen Cracks to Compete
in Early Morning Round at
Field Club, Beginning
at 7:45.
By KARL LEE.

The so-called "old guard" showed
up with considerable speed yester-
day and snapped up honors at the
home stretch of the 36-hole qualify
ing round OF the 18th annual Ne
braska state golf tournament at the
Field club links yesterday. Bar
ring two or three "hasbeens" the
regulars came anew into power.
1t was Young, Peters and Reyn-
olds, in first, second and third
places, when the final arrangement
of scores was made up. Close be-
hind followed Jack Hughes, Wally
Shepard, Billy Guinand, J. W. Re-
dick jr., and Dan Gaines. Omaha
sharks young and old showing up
with splendid cards. Young led the
field with 80.
A hot skirmish among l8 leaders,
who turned in tie scores, which were
found at the extreme end of the
three flight arrangements, will take
place bright and early this morning
at 7:45 o'clock. Immediately fol-
lowing the opening round, lo-hole,
of the tournament proper will be-
gin. Those who play off ties are:
Championship flight: F. S. Gaines,
J. w. Campbell, Phil Kendall.
Presidents flight: E. A, Creigh
ton,, Guy Liggett, A. D. Mallory,
]. w. FOWL, ]. Whittier, c. ?. Dud-
ley, James F. Ludlow, c. Z. Paul
son, F. B. Weppner.
Secretary's flight: E. z. Brando,
O. A. Olsen, B. F. Sylvester, F. L.
Marks, R. Russell, Jack Summers.
Unusual interest is being taken in
these competitions. Several crack
golfers, favorites at the Omaha links
are scheduled to lose berths in each
of the three rounds. There are but
two places to be filled in the cham
pionship flight and four in the sec
retarys. Thus three at least will be
knocked cold for thA entire tourna-
ment.
The greens were exceptionally
fast yesterday.With few exceptions
golfers, either outstate or local, re-
ported them much better suited to
championship play
In team competitions, on scores
made in the 36-hole flight just con-
pleted, the Omaha Field club led by
low scores of o42 and oS7. The Oma-
ha Country club was second with
673, 700 and 635. F. B. Hamiltons
failure to show up for the last Is
holes threw the third team out Of
running. Happy Hollows two teams
registered 693 and 7l3 respectively
and the Fremont four, 7S3.

Cicotte taking up the task in the
