DERBY DAY HAS WRECKING CREW AFTER PENNANT Hens Find Hitting Stride at Expense of Tribe Pitchers in Opener. INDIANS NEED HURLERS Tiier* Is no denying? the fact that Bill Clymer has a line-up of heavy stickers onder his wing this season snd it’s going t otake exceptional good pitching to turn his Hens back at any stage. In the series with the Colonels last week, the Toledoltes had not found their true batting eyes and as a result they fell by the wayside, bnt not so yesterday. It was only a question of time for the boys from the Maumee and that time certainly arrived in the opener with the Indians. With the count standing 5 to 0 against them the wrecking crew of the Henß got busy and when the curtain dropped on the game along about 5 o'clock Derby Day Clymer's pennant nopes were on the long etid of a 10 to IS count. Pitcher King Brady was responsible for most of the damage, for this husky gent drove in the first five runs *or Toledo, one of his three hits being of the Babe liuth variety—in other words, over the fence. HENS DRIVE PEG TO COVER. Pug Cavet started on ’the mound for the Indians and it was seen early that he did not have the stuff on the ball that he did In the opener last Wednesday. As a result, in the fourth frame the Ueus chased two runs over and then in the seventh Brady smashed the bail over the fence, scoring two mates ahead o£ himself. The blow knotted the score, and in ' the eighth the visitors shot far and safely Into the lead by scoring five runs. Cavet was knocked out of the box in this round and Bartlett, who was sent in as relief man, failed to do much tide stemming. i The liens simply were pounding the epple, as their total of fifteen hits will testify mutely. Brady was touched rather lively himself In the eurly innings, but after his mates showed signs of getting to Cavet he tightened up and after the third inning the Indians got but one bingle. In the first frame three Tribe hits, two walks, three stolen bases and an error combined to give the Hendrieksmen four markers. In the third inning the Iloosiers pushed another run over, but there they stopped while the Hens delayed matters until later, when they staged their bingle shower. Hank Schrelber played a fine all-round game for the Indians, two of his three hits driving in three runs. Hank also fielded In true form and it was no fault of his that the Tribe winning streak was halted. The holes in the Hoosler defense were at third base and in center field, where Baird and Skinners were rather shaky on ground balls. It was expected to be a different story this afternoon, however, for Sterling Stryker was due to mount the hill find the" big fellow looked good to turn a vie tory .HOOTERS HOrE TOR LATE RALLY. The fans were not discouraged over the defeat yesterday and they stayed until the finish hoping for a last-minute Tribe rally. The great trio of victories scored over Columbus were not forgotten and i the rooters remained loyal until final hope had faded. They were peeved at Umpire Daily, however, and didn't forget to remind him that he needed cheaters. In the eighth inning Thorpe, first up hit over the third sack, bnt Baird made a great play on the ball, knocked it down and threw to Covington.* Thorpe was out by a step, but t nips Dally, for some unknown reason, called the ‘redskin safe. Thar “break” nnt the Hens on the way to another rally and It was in this round that they clinched the game The Hendrlcksmen are badly in need of pitching talent and It is feared that they are going to lose some ground before aid comes. Jones and Whltebouse are still ailing, which leaves only three hurlers available. Manager Hendricks is truly np against a stiff problem, vice President Smith is going to visit the big league camps within a few clays and he is almost certain to land pitching aid. Until that time the Indians must battle hard. Following the games today and tomorrow the Tribe will go on the road for two series, playing at Toledo and Columbus. WASHINGTON PARK GOSSIP. Pat Bauman. Indianapolis boy with the Hens, got two singles, a double and a walk. Pat refuses to wear out. Indian Jim Thorpe nearly knocked Doug Baird out Into left field with a line drive In the fourth Inning. bnt Doug gamely stayed on his feet, recovered the pellet and got Jim at first base. In this inning the Hens got two doubles but failed to score. King Bradv always is dangerous at the bat against the Hoosiers. Last season he hoisted one over the fence In a clo?e game here and broke up the party. Hitting pitchers certainly are a big help to a ball team. The pinch hitters had a terrible day. Bowen of the Hens batted for La aim In the seventh and struck out. Morrison of the Indians batted for Gossett in the ninth and let. the* third one breeze by. Attreau then went up to hit for Bartlett and he also fanned. Bill Clymer tore up the ground at the first base coaching line when his Hens started cracking the ball. Hank Schreiber never looked better. He s a tireless worker and deserves plenty of praise. Oh, well, can’t win ’em aIL Can you Imagine “them” Colonels! They're going like a Derby favorite. D'uke Keillev broke Into the St. Paul line-up against Kansas City yesterday. The Saints won after a hot battle. The Colonels grabbed an eleventh-in ning win from the Senators, beating Dave Danforth. It was a hard blow to thq Rowlandites. it being their fourth straight defeat. Umpire Ollie Chill writes that Ownie Bush is looking better thia spring than he has for the last few seasons. Outfielder Hill of the Hens mined a couple of distance clouts by sensational fielding yesterday, one on Schreiber and one on Sicking. The attendance was high for Monday. Roger Bresnahan witnessed the game from a box. He sat with Scout Dick Kiueella of the Giants. Scout Klasella was here to see hls son Bub play. Garry Herrmann Picks Mount Rainier as Spot for Wedding in July CINCINNATI. April Ift. —Announcement of the engagement of August Herrmann, president of the Cincinnati Baseball Club, to Mrs. Elisabeth Dougherty of Sheridan road, Chicago, was of national interest in baseball circles today. Mrs. Dougherty, widow of a contractor, formerly lived here. She came here to attend the opening game last Wednesday and visit friends. The engagement was announced at a dinner party in Mrs. Dougherty's rooms at the Sinton. Billy Sunday dropped in before going to the tabernacle for the evening service to congratulate Herrmann and Mrs. Dongherty. Mrs. Dougherty laughingly said Herrmann “hit the trail” at the tabernacle the other night. She did not mean he actually had walked down the aisle with the converts. Herrmann told friends the wedding will take place on July 20 on Mount Rainier, Wash., while he and his fiancee are on their way home from the Elks’ national . convention In Los Angeles. Herrmann's 1 first IsrKe died several yeara age.

Everybody Line Up for Biff Amateur Party Thursday Night

C’mon, guys, let’s all square off for the big amateur baseball shindig at Tomlinson hall, Thursday night. Mayor Charlie Jewett and the rest of tho “boys” are going to be on deck, and when Bobby* Williams turns his eight-piece "Jazzinlst jazz” orchestra loose a wild little party will start down the stretch. So trot out the best gals, have the ’’special occasion suits 1 ’ washed arid ironed, and start the 1924 amuteur doings off wdtb a mad rush. First of all, the big idea of this dauce, as President Harris puts it, is to bring all the amateur ball tossem and their admirers together In a big party, so that a belter acquaintance and spirit of good fellowship may spring up among them. Coming a close second behind this is the fact that the Indianapolis Amateur Baseball Association is badly iu need of dough, the kind that buys bread, not the sort that automatically becomes such. Right now there is something less than a half a hundred bucks In the amateur treasury, and if something doesn't come along things are going to get bluer than tho blue laws.

AM AT El RS FANS URGED TO BOOST, Hence, the dance. President Harris j figures that the association coffers should bo swelled plenty by tho proceeds from j the big Tomlinson Hall party, and he is asking all the amateurs and amateur, fans in the city to turn out and make It something w'orth the time and labor the! association officers have speut In pro- j paring for It. Mayor Jewett has been invited to at | tend the dance, and he hat promised that | ho will report, and shake out a few | wrinkles. The mayor admits that he is j not up to snuff on his ''skidding,” but I says he still knows enough to make a! few of the ball tos*er sit up and take notice. v. Besides the dance, the committee In j charge hag arranged for sevorul enter ; taining numbers that should put plenty j of pep in the program. There will bed special singing, dancing and comedy j numbers, ami the plans are arranged on such a large scale that an early start: and late finish will he necessary. The price of admission is cheaper than tile usual dance cost, so the torso shakers should have no excuse for missing out. PREVIOUS WINNERS TO GET AWARDS. One of the big features at the party will be the awarding of team trophies < and Individual winners to the city chainpionship teums of 1920 and 1919. The I Central Union Telephones copped the i bunting lu 1919, and the Premiers went through for the honors last year. Silver loving cups will be awarded the teams, while eaeh player will be decorated with a gold medal, emblematic (if the I. A B. A. The reason these awards were not \ made before is that the necessary money for the purchase "f them was not laying around handy. That shows how badly the association is In need of amateur ' baseball money This dance Thursday night is Just the ; road to travel for filling the treasury pot. so the amateurs should see that the thing is a big success by turning out and doing their lilt. Ail ticket sellers for the amateur party j are requested to meet at Tomlinson hall tomorrow night and turn In what money they have on hand. Those who so desire may settle with Fred Baldridge Thors day night before festivities get under way. The organization of the Municipal League was completed last night, with the following teams in line; Boys Club. Uhristamores, Indianapolis Keos, Emerson Orioles, Hercules, Douglas Tailors, Vonnegut Hardwares and City Garage. The league will play Sunday ball, and should prove oue or the fastest organized lu this city for several years. Glen Kline, superintendent of the Boys Club, van elected president of the loop, Lee Latham of the Vonnegut Hardware Company was chosen vieo president, and 1 Clayton Rea of the Christamore Club will act as secretary-treasurer. The loop will open May 1. and close Aug. 7.
