There were lot of mistakes made
at Toledo. They were the mistakes
of novices. The greatest mistake of
all, however, was made by the Cham
pion of the World, Jess Willard. He
was the star novice of the show.
Willard a novice? Yes, poor, in
experienced Jess. He was his own
boss, his own trainer and his own
assassin.
He made the mistake Of losing his
head The worst mistake that can
be made in the prize ring. True, he
stopped terrific left with his chin
and fell to the floor. Why didn't he
look toward his corner for advice,
though? Why didn't he stop a sec
ond to think? Why didn't he wait
there on the floor until his head
cleared? Other fighters have done
that.
When Jim Jeffries was dropped at
Reno for the first flop he ever took
he waited like veteran of knock
downs. He looked to his corner,
where he saw hands that told him to
take his time. He waited for nine"

Kopp on Mound for Omaha,
Gather Second Contest

The Tulsa Oilers slipped the
Rourkes a double dose of deiea,
medicine in the Sunday double
header, taking the first game by a
count of to 2 from Charley Kopp,
and the second, 9 to 7, off Lefty
Townsend. The results of these
games are apt illustrations of just
what a couple OF boners will do to
d ball club.
The Oilers held the lead all the
way in the first game, going out in
front with two runs in the fourth in
ming and in the eighth they added
three more to the count The Omaha
players were BANKED every round
up to the seventh when they pushed

steal.
Another score was made, in the
eighth. Graham leading off with a
screaming two Dagger. He went to

latter died on first. the next two
players going out in order. In the
ninth Mason led with a single but
was forced on SchinkePs grounder
TO second Schinkel went out the
same way on Jackson's daisy cutter.
Gislason hit long fly to left field
but Diltz pulled it down after good
run.
In the second game Spellman,
Barbeau and Mason each. made a
costly boot The Tulsa runs were
scored in the first, fourth, fifth and
ninth innings, the count before the
Oilers ninth inning being tie at

three runs. The locals tied it up in
the seventh with two more. but the
final two counters pushed across by
Tulsa won the game, the Rourkes
going down in one, two. three order
in their half of the ninth.

Cincinnati and Chicago
Lead in Two Big Leagues

New York, July 13.-At the mid
season mark two western teams,
the Cincinnati Nationals and the
Chicago Americans, jumped into the
lead in their respective leagues last
week, and, getting weaker eastern
teams during the coming week. have
an opportunity to make gains on
their New York rivals, who face
stronger opposition.
Steady pitching and good batting
put Cincinnati to the fore in a sea-
saw struggle for the top position. A
double victory over Pittsburgh last
Sunday gave the Reds a one-point
advantage over New York, which
resumed the lead Monday by beat
ing Philadelphia twice. The two
teams were on even terms Friday,
but Cincinnati stepped ahead Satur-
day when Ring blanked Phladel-
phia, while Cooper of Pittsburgh
handed New York its first shutout
of the season.

Triple Play.
Bv WILLIAM o. BLOZIES.

Many surprises were registered
Sunday afternoon in local amateur
baseball circles by the warriors
representing the various teams,
affiliated with the Municipal ANA
teur base ball association and THE
contests that we're predicted to be
the feature events of the day, turned
out to be one-sided affairs.
This is especially true in the
Bra d e S Stores Murphy-Did-I 1t
game in the Greater Omaha league,
at Riverview park, which was won
easily by the Murphy's by the score
of IA to /, thereby given the black
smiths 1000 per cent, and making
the race tie for first honors with
them and the Ernie Holmes White
Sox. Butch" Hay, the crack
hurler for the Murphys was on the
firing line and allowed the store
team but six hits and whiting II
men. while he refused to issue
base on balls.
Although it has been published
in two of Omaha's daily newspapers
for the past week that Hay and
Clair of the Murphys would quit to
take jobs in South Dakota, was de-
MED by these players yesterday.
Both will remain in the city and
finish the season with the Murphys.
Second Baseman Vandiver left last
week for his home at Ogallala,
Neb.

Another game which was booked
as feature was between the Trim
bic Brothers and the World Herald
teams in the Booster league, and re-
suited ID to E victory for the news
paper crew, thereby going into the
lead for the championship of that
organization. The Herald bunch bat
tea pitcher Ritz hard and gave Nc
Dermott great support.
Tie Is Broken.
The tie for first honors in the
Gate City league was broken be-
tween the Omaha Printing company
Juniors and the Townsends at Riv-
rrview park, when the Juniors won
a hard-fought battle by the score OF
6 to 4 and are now leading with by
one. Yesterdays victory for the
printers was their tenth straight and
Manager Cruickshnk predicts that
his warriors will cop the flag in that
organization. Chleboard hurled for
the Juniors and allowed but six
ilits while Joe Ort. the speedball
artist of the Townsends was touched
for ten bingles in six rounds. He
was relieved by "Curley" Ryan who
pitched great ball, allowing but two
bingles in the remaining frames.
Third baseman Jackson's home run
drive in the fifth round won the
game for the Juniors, as the bags
were loaded at that time. Chleborad

J. ]. Isaacson, municipal recrea-
ton director will try to have an
other series of horse shoe pitching
tournaments in Omaha he an
nounced yesterday.
Although the horse shoe tourna-
ments were unsatisfactory to the
old folks last season lsaacson will
try to make it interesting foy them
this year.
The tournaments will start about
the latter part of August, so the
,ity championship will be made be-
fore the latter part OF September.
All the tournaments will be held
at the Muny parks and sectional
championships will hinge on the re-
suits.
Isaacson also announced that the
pitching this fall will be at forty
feet instead of the regular forty
four feet This change is made to
handicap the stars and put the
poor pitchers on more even base.

at least
Jess Willard was knocked down
and just as soon as he hit the canvas
he CROPPED around for a rope He
couldn't find one. He got up on his
hands and knees and at the count of
five got to his feet without a defense
and with very muddled brain. He
was a spread for Dempsey, who
promptly dropped him again.
Not once did Willard wait for the
count of nine. He was no sooner
down that he was trying to get up
again.
1t wasn't the first punch that beat
him. 1t was his childish tactics. He
may have been too proud to take the
count of nine. He was foolish
enough to be satisfied with give"
On the seventh Touchdown, which
came seven or eight seconds before
the bell, he was so helpless that we
doubt if he could have reached his
feet again if he had been given
whole minute to do so.

whatever it was THAT was what
killed him off SO early in the fight.
