CLAN CAPTURES SIX OF TEN CONTESTS ON ROAD

HIGHLANDERS OPEN A SIX DAY HOME STAND

Grand Rapids and Ft. Wayne to Furnish Opposition—Cincy Reds Due Friday.

By Ralph H. White.

In a third place tie with Ft. Wayne, and within a striking distance of the top rung of the Central championship ladder, those Highlanders of ours were slated to inaugurate a six-day home stand at Athletic park this afternoon, Grand Rapids opposing. The Ft. "Wayne Cubs will follow the Raiders and ere that three-game series is fought out either one of the two clubs

eafely intrenched in at least thira position. ... The clan came through with a mighty successful road trip. cf-Pturiing six of ten games played. In all, fifteen games were booked, but rain prevented five of that number from being played. Starting at Erie, the Highlanders got an even break, winning one and losing one. At Youngstown, the next stop, the j/an copped two of three, at Dayton the gang bagged the only contest staged, turned a like trick at Wheeling and finished up at Evansvllle yesterday, where the odd game of three was lost. Thws it can be seen that the present Central leaders alone secured an edge on Gilbert's outfit during the fifteen-day road invasion.

The Raiders will play t-ut two of the three scheduled games, owing to an exhibition combat which has been carded with the Cincinnati National league club for Friday. The postponed Central league game will be picked up later in the season, when a double header will be served for the fans. The major league aggregation will use first string players only against the Hignlanders, as the contract between tne rival forces call for the playing or regulars.

After the Ft. Wayne clash the clan will hit out again, going to Grand Rapids for three games and to Ft. Wayne for a like number, returning June 14 for an engagement with the Erie Sailors.

Jack Vann's broken thumb is menfling to beat the band and it may re that he will get in the thickest when the club takes to the road night of June 7.

Evas Lucky to Score on Nehf, Who Hurls Swell Ball. EVANSVIIiLS, Ind., June 2. Although Art Nehf outhurled Cantley here vesterday in the final game of the series, the latter walked off with the laurels, his pinch hit in the second driving in the only marker of the game, which was a slab duel from taw.

The Highlanders hit Cantley hard, but the drives were usually ticketed straight at some one. Knoll in left field hauled in four line drives, two of which would have gone for three bags but for sensational stabs. One of the stabs came in the ninth with Griesel tearing home, and saved the day. The smash was easily good for three bases, Punch getting the tall in deep left while running at top speed.

The Evas were lucky to score. Hauser, first up in the second, walked, and Altermatt bunted to Gilbert, who made a pretty grab, only to have the slippery sphere scoot out of his hand as he drew back to throw to Becond to get Hauser, whom he had by a mile nwing to the heavy going. Kibble then tapped to Nehf, who nipped Hauser

H. S. TENNIS EXPERTS CLASH IN TITLE PLAY

Hopes to Create a Recognized Champ in Middleweight Class

NEW YORK, June 2.—Harry Pollok, guider of lightweight champion Freddie Welsh's destiny, is figuring strongly on clearing up the middleweight championship muddle this summer.

One of Pollok side lines is running the Brighton Beach A. C. at Coney Island. It is through that club that Pollok hopes to create a generally recognized middleweight champion.

Mike Gibbons generally is given credit for being the test of the middles. But there are a lot who dispute that claim, so Pollok hopes to bring all the challengers against Mike in the ring at Coney this summer and get them whipped.

DtPALMA WILL DRIVE IN BIG CHICAGO RACE

Auto Speed King to Prepare Car for June 19 Classic—Indianapolis Normal Again.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., June 2.—Indianapolis settled back to normal Tuesday after the crush and excitement of Monday's great gasoline derby at the Indianapolis motor speedway. Many of the race drivers packed their belongings and left the city with their mounts. ,,

Pleasure was expressed on all sloes that Tuesday's weather conditions did not prevail Monday, as this has been the most disagreeable day of a week of rainy weather.

Before leaving last night for Detroit Ralp De Palma said that he was going to get his car in shape without delay and begin preparations for the 500mile event to De held in Chicago on June 19. He said his car would have to be gone all over to put it in condition for that race.

Harry Stutz's team of drivers all live here and will be given a couple of days' rest. It is his plan to have the three same cars which finished in the money in the ChteaKo race.

The car driven by Wilcox which finished the greater part of Mondays race on two cylinders will be worked over at once. This is the machine which carried the honor position by Qualifying in the fastest time in the elimination trials. Wilcox will personally prepare his car for the Chicago contest.

Loaded With School Teachers, Car Makes Run to Vincennes and Return.

Yesterday the Maxwell "?5" test car, that is to run one thousand miles in a week, made a Irip southward that included Sullivan and Vinceiinea, Ind. The car was offered, lor the day, to tha officials of that worthy organization, the Young Women's Christian association. Miss Ethel Nuzum, extension and industrial secretary, was In charge. She detailed as observers of the day's run three of the most popular members of the Y. W. C. A., and who are attending the Indiana State Normal, where they are preparing for educational work, Miss Bernadine Good, of South Bend, Ind. Miss Esther Rupe, of South Bend, Ind., and Miss Myrtle Thompson, of Frankfort, Ind.

No better observers oould have been self.-cted in all of Terro Haute, because these studious and industrious young ladies required all the points of tha little "wonder car" to be lully demonstrated. They each, in turn, took the driver's position behind the wheel, cleverly manipulated the simple, but business-like electric starter, shifted (he gears, tried the brakes, tooted the cJeoiric horn, and made themselves thoroughly familiar with the entire construction of the Maxwell "25."

The young ladies deserve unusual credit for having braved the rain and the mud in tho 168 -mile trip, and the representative of tho Tribune was amazed at the enthusiastic temperament and unusually good humor displayed by the young ladies upon their sity last evening. When return to this they were invited by the ropresentaive of the. Maxwell company to dine, they were' more interested in telling him of the wonderful merits of the car ho had tho honor to represent, than I hey were in satisfying their hunger. Miss Good was kind enough to aay that the springs on the car were alone worth the price asked for the whole car.
