DERBY SERIES NEXT ON CARD OF TRIBESMEN Indians Ready for Annual Feature Trip to Home of Colonels. BASEBALL, BOXING, RACE Continuation of post-season winter today forced the postponement of the series wind-up game between Colonels and Indians. It looked like the middle of winter at Washington Park this morning and Managers McCarthy and Hendricks both were glad when hostilities were declared off. Tomorrow the Hoosiers beat it for I.ouisrille for the annual big feature series In the Colonel town. Games are carded there Wednesday, Thursday. Friday and Sunday, but baseball will not be the only attraction for players and fa £. On Friday night Joe Lynch, ban tarn champion, will defend his title over the twelve-round route with Pal Moore of Memphis and the scrap is expected to be • thriller. Moore is rated one of the leading contenders for the midget crown and It is almost certain that he will give Lynch a terrific struggle. On Saturday the ball players get a vacation to take in the Kentucky Derby, the classic of the turf. The feature boxvng match. Derby and baseball form a great drawing card and hundreds of Hoosiers are planning to ramp in Louisville for the .veek-end. The Indiana sports always remain over a day following the Derby, in order to witness the Sunday ball battle between the Indians and Colonels. The rooting Is terrific at these games, and on several occasions in the past fisticuffs between the rival rooting sections was narrowlyaverted. The Indians are facing a long road trip and the task Is going to be heavy. After meeting the Colonels in their home town the Tribe will hop far into the northwest to play at St. Paul and Minneapolis. Then the team will visit Milwaukee and Kansas City before returning home to tangle with the Colonels again, starting May 2S. • The pitching staff needs bolstering in a hurry and there were signs today _ln dieating that aid is on the wav. Vice President Smith returned to the city after a visit to a couple of big league camps and he brought back encouraging news. The coming of .Tohnnv Enzmann will help, for this twirler has been In the league before and knows how to pitch. He was due to report here this afternoon. The game yesterday was a slaughter for the Indians, the Colonels taking It. 1", to 3. Paul Jones tried to pitch, but failed to last the first inning out. King, a vounester, was sent in, but failed to check the Louisville attack, and he gave wav to Whitehouse. There was no stopping the Colonels, however, and they used their heavy artillery the entire afternoon. Last night Pitcher Jones was Indefinitely suspended by Manager Hendricks for failure to get in condition. It has been two since the InJians started their 1921 training and. Hendricks could see no reason why a man should not get In shape during that long period. WASHINGTON PARK GOSSIP. Betzel, Kirke and Ellis each got four bits in their fracas yesterday. The cold failed to dim their batting optics and they hit the ball evreywhere. Wee Tommie Long was on the mound for the •Lionels and, though he was in fair form, the Indians probably would have beaten him if they had had good pitching. He was a trifle wild. It was much too cold for baseball and the players had to keep moving In order to prevent chilling. The crowd of l.>o remained standing throughout the game. Paul Jones walked two and permitted two singles and a triple before he was yanked. Fans who recall Jones' good work last season regret to see him apparentlv through as a twirler. The club officials gave him all the time possible to regain his form, but he his been unable to show anything convincing. Young Kiefer, obtained from the White Sox. has been returned. He did not demonstrate Class AA pitching ability in the workouts. Eddie Sicking accepted ten out of eleven chances around the keystone yesterday. His oniv mispiay was excusable, for li was like catching a piece of ice to stop a baseball under the frigid weather prevailing. Fear of an abundance of double-headers later was the only reason the Monday game was staged.
