CHAMBER OF COMMERCE AND MAYOR’S OFFICE COMBINE TO GIVE TEAM HEARTY WELCOME

TRIBE RETURNS HOLDING DOWN SECOND PLACE Fans Hardly Can Wait to See Climbing Indians in Action Tomorrow. ANNEX SUNDAY BILL I Baseball Luncheon to Open Tuesday Fireworks Members of the fhambfr of Commerce. Mayor Jewett and others today rot together and derided to throw a big baseball lonrheon tomorrow at 12: IS at the Chamber of Commerce In honor of the Indians It wtil be an open affair and all business men, members and nonmembers, nre invited to attend. The luncheon is to be riven as a mark of appreciation to the ball players for their remarkable drive In coming up from last place to second In the A. A. race. John B. Reynolds, secretary of the chamber; Mayor Jewett, Jack Hendricks and others .vlll address the gathering. All the ball players will be there and a rousing time is sure to oceur. Now’s the time to show baseball spirit. Attend the luncheon and then the game!

Hurry-’em-up Hendricks and his harrying Hoosiors burrieaned into town today occupying second place in the league race after winding up their long road trip at Columbus Sunday by throwing the stinger into Bill Clymer’s Senators twice the same day, 7 to 5, eleven innings and 3 to 1. It was a glorious finish to a remarkable journey and local funs are swelling up with pride to the point of bursting. In fact, there is evidence tbac the city ia baseball daffy and the welcome to be gloen the Tribe athletes tomorrow when they clash with the Milwaukee Brewers at Washington park no doubt will make the players feel that their heroic efforts have been appreciated. TANS WORKED IT OVER TRIBE. Every one seems to be talking baseball and If the attendance tomorrow doesn't smash week-day records here the dopesters will be off in their guess. Manager Hendricks reports alt men in shape, barring Jess Petty, of course, who has been crippled for some time. The Tribe boss says he never managed or heard of such a fighting team as the Indians have demonstrated on the iong trip, and he feels that with any sign of a slip on the part of the Saints hj? predicts the Tribe will take another hop into that flag position. The Indians played in Columbus twice on the trip and their record in that city is a sample of wbat kind of a pace the team is going. Out of nine games against the Senators the Hoosiers won eight, four out of five the first visit and four straight the second visit, ending yesterday. It's needless to go into details regarding the other good points of the Indians mad dash up the pennant ladder because Hoosier fans have been following the daily dope without missing anything. PLENTY OF NOISE HERE TOMORROW. In fact, many fans are on the verge of collapse, so hard have they been pulling for their favorites and the rooting at the Washington park lot tomorrow is expected to resemble a series of explosions. Charlie Whitehouse added more glory to his mounting fame in Columbus yesterday by doing relief work in the first game and then stepping out into the second contest and winning it. More Tribe comeback stuff featured both battles. The Hoosiers scored three In the eleventh to win the day's opener and in the second they rallied in the ninth, scoring twice and clinching that struggle. The Indians had to beat the best burlers on the Columbus staff to wind up their trip with a double victory, downing both Danforth and Lyons. Even Charlie Whitehouse got into the hitting, and his triple in the ninth frame of the second game practically won that contest. Owner Smith saw the windup at Columbus and returned home with the club. The whole world looks different to the Tribe president and he is ready to declare his team the best bnnrh of ball players on the big minor map. Bad luck had President Smith staggering for awhile hut. being a true sportsman, he refused to give up and met every setback with more determination to make good. Working hand in hand with Manager Hendricks, the Tribe president <w the team gradually lifted out of the rut until right now- Indianapolis is getting more baseball publicity and prestige than any other minor league city in the country. The amount of advertisement the city has received from the great drive the team has made is tremendous. It’a the talk of minor league baseball circles.

Around the A. A. ’WITH EDDIE ash

The Trit.e closed the road trip with victories, eleven defeats and one tied game. Just like the fast mall! Anew presidential ticket composed of Pimth and Hendricks would sweep the stale. Kores is s.nd to be looking good at third base. Guess Jack Hendricks was rrazv when he grabbed Kores and guess h~ was crazy before that when he signed Charlie Whitebouse! Whoop snacks! The players have voted Owner Smith the king of magnates. Wonder what the poor old Blues are thinking? The Indians simply dashed ofT and left ’em tied to the post. Ralph Shinners has developed into a diving shark in the outfield. Tomorrow at 3:50. Be there early and watch the Hoosiers warm up to massacre the Brewers. Louisville fans are not shouting much these days. The Indians passed so fast they didn’t s?e ’em. Clarence Rowland, scout for the Detroit Americans and touted as the manager of tbe 1321 Tigers, saw Tommy Long of Louisville hurl hi* no-run, nohit game against Toledo .Saturday and said he would put In a bid for his services. Long worked the last inning of the second game Sunday against Toledo and three men faced him, two striking out. It made ten Innings against the Mud Hen* without a safety being made off him. Rowland has been checking up Long's record for the season and has expressed himself as well pleased with the Colonel star's showing.

HOWL MADE BY CIVILIAN STARS Army Athletes Charged With Hogging Cabin Space. NEW YORK, July 26.—Ordinary civilian athletes who will take part in the Olympic games for the United States set up a howl here today just previous to departure when they learned that army authorities had assigned them to quarters below decks on the transport Princess Matoika.

Included among those departing were ins track and field men, twenty-four wrestlers, forty-eight swimmers, twenty fencers and eight bicycle riders. Messages wishing tbein godspeed and lots of luck came in today from many parts of the country.

AN INNING WITH THE AMATEURS

WHAT HAPPENED SATURDAY. The Midwest Engines tore the bottom cut of the dope bucket., turned it upside dowu and kicked it full of holes when they went up for an 11 to 2 win over the Premier Motors on the Premier diamond. The secret of the Midwest win was the rise of Pitcher Flaming and the fall of Pitchers Redman and Brown. Fleming threw great ball all tbe way, holding the heavy-hitting Premier to seven scattered wallops, while his teammates made life miserable for “Rabbit" and Elmer. But all the blame must not be placed on the shoulders of the Premier twirlers. The club made plenty of errors behind them. That victory not only upset the dope; it also tied the Motor league leadership, leaving the Premiers and Marmons with equal claims to the title. The Marmons had little trouble in winning their weekly jam with the MartinParry combination, 21 to 4. Both clubs hrt the ball hard and long in this scrap, the Marmons getting fourteen blows and the Parrys twelve. But this Motor league tie will not remain such for very long. The Marmons end Premiers clash in tbe final round of the league schedule on the Premier diamond next Saturday afternoon. Johnny Noonan probably will work in the box for the Marmons, with Elmer Brown, the Marmon Jinx, on duty for the Premiers. Chie Avery brought two victories to (he Indiana Bells Saturday by his brilliant pitching. He worked the entire route in their first game with the Board of Trade and Btepped in for action in the early rounds of the second game when Cobb started golr.g badly. The scores were 3 to 1 and 9 to 1. These wins give the Bells a peach of a grip on the city league pennant. The Abattoir nine bad easy sailing neainst the Kahn Tailors, beating them 10 to 5. Heavy hitting by everybody concerned brought tbe Fairbanks crew a 10 to 0 victory over the Presto*. The Ametlcana took their weekly’s

weekly, a 7 to 0 defeat, at the hands of the Robins. There were runs and runs scored in the Commercial circuit. Oaks got away with a 17 to 6 win over the Hollenbecks. Jones had everything on the old pill and he held the Udells at bay while (he Bemis Bags stacked up a 13 to 4 count. Harris. Mullen and O’Rourks were the big cogs in the Hibben-Hollweg machine which defeated the Postoffice, 20 to 10. Broadway got away to a late start, but finished up with flying colors, beating the Mortis Street nine, 12 to 11. River Avenue went to sleep at the switch and the Southports rushed up for a cinch win. Such also was the case in the First Baptist-East Tenth affair, the Baptists pulling the Rip Van Winkle stunt. Southport slaughtered Eighth Christians. The Olive Branches got a lot of runs at the start and made a picnic out of their scheduled battle with the Eion Evangelists.

Militarys, 6; Times, 5 In a fast game on the Falrview diamond yesterday afternoon the .Militarys defeated The Indiana Daily Times team, 6 to 5. Each team accumulated nine hits. Pooie had eleven strikeouts and Martin nine. Circus catches were pulled off by Harris in the left garden for the Militarys and Foley In center for The Times.

Demonstration Plan for Johnson Nipped; Jack Left at Joliet Big Smoke Reiterates Willard Frameup—Christians Mean, He Says.

CHICAGO. July 26.-—Jack Johnson, former heavyweight ring champion and until his arrest in California several days ago a /ugitive from Justice for eight years, today occupied a cell in the Jail at Joliet. 111., thirty miles from Chicago, while his attorneys made efforts to obtain his release on bail and to prepare a brief asking for anew trial for the big negro in federal eourt. Johnson was hastily taken from the train at .Toilet when United States marshals, bringing him from California, learned that hundreds of his friends bad gathered at the railroad terminal in Chicago and were preparing to make a demonstration in his behalf. They were forced to give their ovation to Mrs. Lucille Cameron Johnson, the pugilist's white wife, who was left on the train because of the suddenness with which Johnson was removed from it at Joliet. In an interview Johnson said he had received an offer t ( , fight .Tack Dempsey for a divisional purse of $300,000, reit prated his charge that his fight with Jess Willard was “a frame-up’’ and that he had agreed to “lay down” under a promise touts letting Willard win would get him back in the United States “without prosecution,’’ and declared that he had “stopped being a Christian." “There are so many mean Christians.” he said, “that I don't want to be one any longer. “I'm mighty glad to be back here,” he concluded. “I can lick any pugilist in the whole United States and am going to keep to condition to do it."

Big League Stuff

j Babe Ruth had an almost perfect day j Sunday. He got a homer, his thirty-fifth, ! a double, made a spectacular catch and i received a check for SIOO,OOO. all the same day. The check was advance on bis movie contract. Babe scored his thirtyfourth homer Saturday. The Tigers, without Ty Cobb, combed I the Rrowns for twenty two hits and twenty-one runs. The game should have been staged in an abattoir. The Cleveland Indians maintained their precarious position in first place by licking the White Sox, 7 to 2. Aiexader showed a flash of his real form, in trimming his former team-mates, the Phillies. Seven hits well scattered, were all Alexander would give 'em. Ured Toney beat his old rival. Slim Sallee, in a battle at Cincinnati. The Giants climbed Sallee for fifteen bits. The Brooklyn Robins are shooting the chutes that may cost them the leadership of the National league. Pittsburg downed them again, 5 to 4. If there was a hero yesterday it was Mr. Powell, who centerflelds for the I.raves. In the ninth, with two down, the bases full, and his team one run behind, Powell cracked out a double, scoring two runs. An off day voday, only one game in the National and three in the American. Arthur Devlin, scout for the New York Giants, stated at Chattanooga yesterday that he had purchased Outfielder Walker of the Augusta Sally league club for $7,500.

J., tonight when the biggest fight card in the east in years will be offered under tbe auspices of the International Sporting club.

Indianapolis Ties Pol® Count With Rolling Rfdge The Indianapolis Polo club evened the series count with Rolling Ridge by a 7 to 5V4 victory on the Speedway field Saturday afternoon. Several thousand people witnessed the game as guests of the Indianapolis quartet, and were treated to one of tl best exhibitions ever staged in this part or the country. The speedy playing of Bobby Bullock and Ted Tejan, Dayton poloists, was the outstanding feature of the battle, although several local men showed exceptional ability for the short time they have been in the game. The game was full of pep and dash all the way, but it was in the scoreless sixth and seventh periods that the fanff saw polo as it is played by experts.
