HOOSIERS TAKE ON LEADERS OF NATIONAL LOOP Manager Hendricks Makes Change in Tribe Line-up and Batting Order. RALLY BEATS SENATORS Jack Ilendrleks and his “Come From Behind’’ Indians were back in town today ready to engage in an exhibition contest with the Pittsburgh Pirates this afternoon and due to the fact that the Hoosiers crowned themselves with glory in the final battle with the Senators at Columbus yesterday local fans planned to turn out in big numbers to see their favorites perform if weather permitted a game. The Pittsburgh team • iso is a favorite here and there was no reason why a battle between Pirates and Indians should not cause the city s baseball bugs to stampede out to the West Washington street lot. The Pirate brigade Is at the top o’ the heap In the National League standing, and it is evident that George Gibson's hustlers mean# to remain in the Immediate vicinity of the flag position throughout the season. The Pirates came in from Bt. Louis this morning and established headquarters at the Severin Hotel Among the leading lights with the National Leaguers are Rabbit Maranville, shortstop; Max Carey, outfielder; Cutshaw. Second base; Whitted, outfielder: Bigbee. outfielder; Schmidt, catcher, and others. The exhibition was to start at 3 ’< lock, with Charlie Wbitehouse the pr 'bable pitching selection for Indianapolis. Butch Ilenline hoped to get behind the bat for the Indians, although he *ras suffering slightly from an injured finger received in the battle at Columbus yesterday. Manager Hendricks announced a change in the Tribe line-up and batting order today. Doug Baird was to return to the third base job and hit second in the batting order. The new line-up against the Pirates was to be as follows: Btatnners. cf: Baird, 3b; Covington, lb; Kehg, If; Kinsella, rs; Schreiber, ss; Picking. 2b; Heuline or Dixon, c; White bouse, p. , Pitchers Kiefer and King, obtained on trial from the Chicago W hite Box, reported at Washington Park this morning and were ready to don uniforms this afternoon.. Pitcher Enimann. obtained from the ” Phillies, was due here late this afternoon. Members of the Indians were pulling hard for clear weather this afternoon because they were to share In the gate receipts of the exhibition with the PL ratcs. Owner Smith said he would "treat" the bovs to a little extra money and they etrtainlv were rarin’ to step out and show their appreciation of the club president’s generosity. I nscttied weather of the morning was discouraging to the Indians, but they hoped the sun would break through by game time. SIX MARKERS IN THE NINTH -* COLUMBUS. Ohio. April 28.-—Columbus fang were still walking In circles today as a result of the terrific mauling their Senators received in the nintd inning yesterday at the hands of the Indianapolis Indians. For eight rounds the home elub held what appeared to be. a safe lead, but In the ninth the Hoosiers braced and started something that fairly shook the Columbus ball park. So many runs went over In such a short -ace of'time that the Senator rooters Jere falrlv dazed, and when they had re fevered sufficiently to count figures again thev looked at the scoreboard and simply faded out. There stood the figures, Indianapolis. 8; Columbus, 4. Before the ninth inning opened the Senators were ou the long end of a 4 to 2 count, so there was good and sufficient reason for the fans to suffer fainting spells when they realized the Hoosiers had scored six runs Id the ninth. Cavet and Rush were the starting pitchers, and they battled through for eight innings The home club grabbed a two-run lead, but this was evened up in the sixth when Covington lifted a home run over the fence with Rehg ou base. Right back came the Senators, however, and scored twice, giving them a second two-run lead Everything looked rosv for a home team victory until the final round. After one out the Hooaier fun started and when the visitors had finished they bad scored six times oa hits, stolen bases, errors and a base on balls. Rush was knocked out of the box and Haid substituted, but to no avail. Doug Baird put the Hoosiers back in the game by delivering a triple when be hatted for Cavet. It scored two runners, evening the count, and after that the Indians just blew themselves out in front to stay. Sterling Stryker hurled the ninth for the Hendrlcksmen, and he cut down the Senators in rapid fire order. Oh, yes, it surely was a gay party of Indians that hopped out of this city beaded for Indianapolis last night.

was merely just another turn of the diamond wheel. Butch Henline is still lively behind the plate. He means to battle hard for another trip to the big show. The Ft. Wayne blonde is young and one more season In the American Association no doubt will see him jit his best. Owner Smith returned to the city today ready to join the Tribe rooting brigade for the Louisville series lie failed to get a pitcher from the Giants, but he feels that Enzinann, whom he ob -lined from the Phillies, will prove of help here. John McGraw's Giants have been hitting the rocks and the New York boss does not feel ready to cut loose any pitching talesit until his stars round to form. Doug Baird came through with triples twice as a pinch hitter at Columbus. When you can hit three base knocks in the clinch you're there. Manager Hendricks says the Columbus team Is drawiug better than in seven years. About 4.000 fans were present yesterday Last Sunday the Senators drew 11,000. If yon don't succeed the first time, try, try again. Hank Schreiber opened the ninth yesterday by flying out, but when he got a second chance in the same inning he soaked a double, scoring two mates. Rain yesterday morning prevented Hendricks taking his team to the Ohio Peitentiary for a game with the prison nine. The entertainment for the lockstep boys will he staged on the Tribe’s next visit to Columbus. Members of the Indiana -.l'nivorsity baseball team, of which Jack Hendricks’ sou is the first baseman, were to be the guests of the Tribe bosses at Washing ton Park today.

Wabash and Butler Baseballers Clash on Irvington Field Butler and Wabash were to clash on the diamond thjs afternoon at Irwin Field. The contest was originally scheduled for yesterday at Crawfordsville but wet grounds there mads th change necessary. Today’s game was to be one of the real college features here this year and arrangements had been made to care for a record crowd. The other big games on the Butler home schedule are Purdue Saturday, Waseda of Japan, and Wabash again late In May. Although little dope was available on the relative strength of the two teams, every indication was that It would be a real battle. Wabash is generally conceded to be represented this year by one of the best nines In the State and their record to date has been unusually impressive, while the strength of the Butler team Is practically untried, due to the limited number of contests engaged in by the Bulldogs so far. Staton, Coach Page's pitching ace, was to be on the mound for Butler, opposed by Sherman, who is regarded as Wabash's best. Staton holds wins over Purdue and Franklin and only one run has been scored on him in these two games. Sherman Is an Indianapolis boy and pitched for Tech when the school won the State championship in 1917 He is rated one of the best college moundgman in the State. Ash, Scarlet second baseman, is also an Indianapolis boy well known to local fans, having played on the same Tech team with Sherman. Independent Athletic Club Sending Trio to Gary Ring Tournament Henry McDuff, amateur bantamweight champion of Indiana: Vaughan Treber, holder of the middleweight title, and Eddie Orrne, one of the best lightweights in the State, will represent the Independent Athletic Club at the central States boxing tournament to be held at , Gary tomorrow and Saturday. McDuff and Orme are local boys, while Treber Is from Marion. Treber and McDuff won their titles by defeating large fields in the State tournament held at the Independent Clnb last year and since that time have taken part in several bouts, winning handily on every occasion. Orme lost his chance at the lightweight title in the tournament through a technicality, but he has been keeping pace with McDuff and Treber for the last year and local followers of the amateur ring game think that he has a great chance to cop the title in his division at the Gary meet. dm With the signing of Paul Hinkle, baseball coach at Butler College, as a pitcher, and Benny Flagler, outfield, Dan Elder has completed the line-up of his Elder Reserve ball club, which opens the season with the Marlon Boosters at Marion Sunday. Elder now has the class of the local semi pro field In line and is confident that the team will ring up plenty of victories in u campaign against Indiana's leading teams this season.
