BASEBALL STAR
FOR rs YEARS
BACK IN GAME
Pa Rourke, Who Took. to Dia-
mond In 1883, Il Retained
a. Scout by Reds

ASSOCIATED Press Sports writer)
Chicago, March 27.-(AP)-"Pa"
Rourke, mixed up in BASEBALL since
1883, is back in the game he loves,
after as years Of IL, because he could
not stand the doldrums Of q retired
life.
"Pa" Rourke IL William Rourke,
for u years owner Of the Omaha
club Of the Western League. Now
he Is on the payroll Of the Cincin-
natl Reds, serving as . scout and
assistant to Bobby Wallace.
The veteran Is reputed to be
wealthy, having amassed neat pile
% owner Of tho Omaha club. He
tried the retired stuff, but was not
satisfied, 20, responding to the lure
Of the game, he decided to come back,
in some capacity or other.
He is one of the outstanding fig.
ures in minor league baseball, num-
bering thousands among his per-
sonal friends all over the country.
He ID relying upon that friendship,
and his skill in judging young
players, A an asset for his scout
ing efforts for the Reds.
Owned Omaha Club
Rourke, q player, manager, owner
and scout in his career, broke into
the-game as q player in Muscatine,
Iowa, back in 1883. He drifted
around, playing here and there,
until he became owner of the
Omaha club, which prospered UNI
der his control. He sent to the
major leagues many stars whose
names will live in memory after
the present generation has passed.
The old-timer believes, with others,
that the big leagues eventually will
have to depend upop the colleges to
recruit their playing strength.
Its an open secret now THAT the
sandlots Of the cities and the rural
diamonds are not sending up one
fourth Of the players they once
did," Rourke says. THE average
youth Of today hassa thousand and
one more distractions to occupy him
than was the case Is years ago, or
even less than that.
"Then our only big sport was
baseball. The boys just had to
play it. The boy who played tennis
was regarded Is q sissy Now,
we'll, it's just too bad. They're not
baseball"

Football prospects for 1923 at the
University of North Dakota, con-
sidered very promising at the close
Of the season last fall, have been
jolted considerably by the news that
Mike knauf of Moorhead, Minn.,
and Arnold Kirkness of Lake Park,

year.
Both are back field regulars,
Knauf = quarterback and Kirkness
. half and the spot hit is the most
vital, for North Dakota needed
every available back.
Knauf has left school and is at
home at Moorhead. 1t is under
stood that he will attend a univer-
sity offering 2 dental course next
year.
kirkness Graduates
kirkness will receive his degree
here in the spring. He expected to
let his graduation ride over until
the close Of the first semester but
has chosen to finish up this year.

last year and is expected to be we'll

Diehl who is sophomore and

when he showed his heels to some
Ut the finest high school sprinters
Of the state. He .spccializes in the
century and 220 yard dashcs.
Smith Is Prospect
Vernon Smith, behemoth Dickin-
son athlete, is another good varsity
prospect. The big fellow has been
trying his hand at the shot put, dis
Gus and javelin and if he can get
his weight behind the elusive track
instruments he should develop into

Charlie Finch of La Moure Is
another sophomore speedster who

only hopes rest on the chance that

Lewie Lee, javelin thrower, and

spring.
Thompson Leaves Hole
The biggest loss is that Of Dor

North Dakota lost point winners
in Art Hanson, half miller, and Joe

graduated.
Doane Looks Good

Thatched Roof Comes
Back to Popularity

There has been q return to the
matched roof in England, largely due
to the influence Of a few architects
who have educated their clients into
the esthetic value Of this sort Of COW
ering for house. This has led to
start Of the practice In this country,
where several very substantial houses
have been built with roofs Of thatch.
In these instances the thatch and the
thatchers were brought from England,
as no really accomplished thatchers
could be found here.
1t is complicated art. The town
Of Salhouse in Norfolk, England, is the
center of the industry. There is q
family of thatchers there which has
been identified with the industry since
the early part Of the Sixteenth CEN
fury.
It is no easy job and in order to be-
come really expert the workman must,
spend an apprenticeship Of nine years.
The difficulty is in negotiating the
gables, angles, domes and minarets
which are to be encountered in COW
ering house. The workmen use a
needle nearly three feet long in sew
ing the thick roof.-New Haven Reg
lister.
