TRIBESMEN TRY FOR COME-BACK IN LOUISVILLE Hendricks Urges Indians to Get Back on Feet and Stop Colonels. LOUISVILLE, May s.—After suffering a bad mauling at tbe hands of the Colonels In C series opener here yesterday, the I idiane today hoped to bolster their morale and defense sufficiently to cberk the slugging Louisville boys. The score yesterday was 10 to 3 In the locals’ favor as a result of poor pitching by Stryker and a weakening of Lbe Tribe defense. ■ Cuvet was the likely choice for the Hoosier firing line today. Johnny Enzmann is here and there was some likelihood of the former Phllly being trotted out, though Cavet was ready and willing for action. In the last two games the Tribe has received severe beatings and Manager Hendricks today appealed to his men to gather themselves together and do a little attacking In place of the retreat stuff. The poor pitching hae caused the team to lose its steadiness apparently. The achievement of the 'Colonels In lambasting tbe ball al lover the lot yesterday made Louisville fans feel chesty today and they were expected out in big numbers for the second battle of the series. > The collapse of the Indian pitching is causing Jack Hendricks to walk the floor. The manner in which Stryker blew up In the third Inning yesterday was very discouraging, coming as It did after the collapse of Jobes and the failure of Whitehouse to find his stride. Lee Bartlett took up the Tribe hurling in the fourth yesterday and showed fairly good form, the Colonels scoring three times In the five innings he workea. Schreiher held up hi# game by fielding faultlessly and contributing two bits. Jay Klrke got two doubles for tbe Colonels. Tbe Indians didn’t fail down on their double play record, getting two—Rebg to Henllne, and Covington to Schrelber to Covington. The score was 1 to In favor of the Indians just before the Colonels staged their third Inning rally, which netted them seven runs and the game. It appeared to be a big run day for the association. Kansas City whaled Milwaukee, 23 to 12, and St. Paul plastered the Millers 16 to 3. The only good game was at Toledo, where the Senators beat the Hens, 3 to 0. Moore Gets Chance to Make Good His Ring Title Boasts LOUISVILLE, May 5. Pal Moore. Memphis bantamweight and southern bantamweight champion, hae often made the statement that there wae only one thing that he was striving for in the boxing game That was to become bantam champion. Friday night at the Armory Club, this city, Moore gets tbe chance to make good his boast hat he would win the title if Lynch eve) consented to meet hlin after he (Joe) iron the championship from Peter Gullotta, who le known in boxing history as Peter Herman. On tbe eve of the running of the most historic race in the annals of the sport of kings, Moore, several years ago a frail looking youngster, whose ring futuro looked anything but bright, gets the chance that thousands of promising pugilists have wished for, but never gained. In meeting Joe Lynch for twelve rounds, the ' ien-.phls lad tackles the toughest assignment ever banded out by a promoter to a contender. Lynch arrived in Louisville Wednesday. Tbe champion stated that he realised that this bout was the most important he has engaged in since winning tbe title end for that reason ha wound up his hard training in Gotham where suitable sparring partners--are not hard to Snd. Moore probably will be a 7-to 6 ringside favorite over the titleholder, due to Pai’a freak style of milling. The Memphis laa only recently won a fifteenround decision over Young Montreal and has defeated other bantams who have proved troublesome for Joe.

WEST S DERBY CHANCES SLIM Tryster and Prudery Retain Popularity as Classic Draws Near. LOUISVILLE, May s.—What chance haa the. West in the Derby? Judging from the lack of a single strong favorite, following the decline from popularity of Leonardo 11, aftet his defeat by Black Servant in the Blue Grass stake* last Saturday, the westerners are groping hopelessly. There is much talk of Coyne, who Is a fast colt over a fast track. It is known Coyne is perfectly Then Black Servant has been undefeat/1 this year, but he never met but one field of really good Derby colts. He had been lightly considered for Derby honors until he defeated Leonardo 11, but hi* race does not seem to have turned the sentiment of the West toward him in any marked degree. There are some who insist that his stablemate Behave Yourself will finish in front of him. " There’s no chance to shake Tryster and Prudery, the Whitney entry, from the pedestal of popularity. GrM’ Lag and Star Voter, the Sinclair ontry, doubtless will hold second place :tn esteem of the eastern representatives. Tbe makeup of the Derby field now appears as follows: Tryeter, Prudery, Leonardo 11., Bon Honrune, Black Sorva/t, Behave Yourelf, Careful, Grey Lag, Coyne, Uncle Velo, Muskallonge. Billy Barton, Star Voter, Nancy Lee, Baby Grand. Touch Mo Not. Derby horses were given rather light work Wednesday at Churchill Downs. In the majority of Instances they were to be set down today for their last keying up prior to the big race. The track web still a bit heavy, being about three seconds slow. E. R. Bradley's pair, Black Servant, and Behave Yourself, worked a mile and one-quarter In 2:11 3-5, the latter finishing a trifle ahead. Star Voter turned a half In 0:49 3-5. It was Impressive work. Tryster and Broomspun worked a mile and a quarter together, Tryster finishing well In advance of hi* stable companion. Truster's time was 2:11 2-5. Broomspun finished out In 2:13 4-5. Prudery went a mile in 1:47 4-5, well In hand? Billy Barton went five furlongs In 1:07 1-5, easily. Bon Homme was a tired horse after working the mile and a quarter in 2:12 2-5.

LOCAL BOY TOO HOT FOR MASON Solly Epstein Makes Ft. Wayner Hunt Corner in Kokomo Ring. BY CHARLIE LOGAN. Solly Epstein, Indianapolis aspirant to the bantamweight laurels, cleared away all reasonable doubt as to his superiority over Frankie Mason, Fort Wayne boy, when he chased him about the ring at Kokomo last night, plastering him with everything but the water bucket over evety Inch of the ground. The bout went ten ronnda, and the best Mason could even hope for wa* an, even decision in one, 'the ninth, when ho came out to show symptoms of fight in the first minute or so, then went back 'to the marathon game. Solly tore into Frankie like he meant business In the first round and several stiff cracks to the jaw and body sent the Ft. Wayne boy to his corner rather weary. Epstein was on him like a tiger In the next frame and before a minute had passed he shot over a left Jab that split Mason’s lip. Mason backed over Into his corner and announced bis desire to retire for the evening, saying that another such wallop would take a chunk out of his lip and mar his appearance for life. ORDERED TO RKBUME BOUT. This didn’t go With the fans, however, and, after ten minutes of wrangling with Referee Binzer, during which time he had also been examined by a physician, and told to go on with the fight, and obtained a promise from Solly not to strike him about the face, Mason resumed actwn. Knowing that Mason would quit If he were struck in the face too often, Epstein bombarded his stomach with a volley of mean blows that had him all lit up like a danger signal when the tenth round was over. Occasionally during the last three rounds Epstein raised one to Mason's head for a change, and at the finish the Ft. Wayne' boy was bleeding from the mouth and ear. Mason took his worst punishment in the third and sixth rounds, on which occasions it appeared as thouglr the bell saved him from the count. In the third Mason looked so poor that the fans wanted the bout stopped. Tommy Teague of Muncie floored Kid Hale of Chicago in the third round of the semi-wind-up and the latter quit after claiming he had been fouled. Teague was given the referee's decision. Bill Dalton of Kokomo knocked out Kid Baker of Muncie in the second round with a right to the wind.
