Play ball! Batter up! | “Kane will leave here Saturday night for | Omaha." Tiils is & telegram received by Pa Rourke from Barney Dreyfus, president of the Pittsburg National league team. It wettles | the question of who will play first base | for Omaha. The Omaha team is now complete and ready to start on the cham- plonship race Kane, with his blg league experience, still in' his prime, ought to.be a source of great strength to Omaha. He s at the | beginning of his career. He played good ball for Pittsburg last year, covering first in about & third of the games. His batting is all right. Pittsburg is long on first base- men at present and was unable to keep him, especlally when your papa came along and flashed a roll on M. Drefus big enough to stop a street car. With Kane at first. Graham at second, Pendry third, and Franck short, Omaha infield should be as strong as any in the league. It's outfield with Fisher, King and Welch as regulars and Belden as extra man, will also be powerful JUNIORS WIN THE FIELD MBET Bob Thompson of This Class Takes Score in Individual Honor In the annual field day class athletic meet of the Omaha High school. held Fri- day afternoon, the junlors waiked away with so large a share of the honors that the class contest was practically over be- fore four or five of the events had been Tun off. They scored 78% points in the fourteen'events, as compared with 22 made by the senfors, 16 by the freshmen and 145 by the sophomores In the ‘contest for individual honors, Bob Thompson of the junior claes won the greatest number of points, 23, with three firsts and a tie for first, one second and one third. Ralph Weirick, another junior, gathered In three firsts, a .mecond and a Ue for third, making 18 ‘points and second Individual honors. Kulakofsky, a junfor, and McKinney, a senlor, tle for third with 8 points each. m account of a high wind, only ordi- nary track, poor ground for the field events and a rather short season of pren- aration, no remarkable records were made in any of the events. However, it s safe to say that the purple and while will be heard from in track and firld snorts among the state high schools, If it follows up the €00d beginning it has made.
