Big League Stuff

The lowly rhiilies Tuesday held tbe Pirates to an even break, hut they gained a half game on the Giants, thanks to Pabe Adams’ winning of the second half of the twin bill. Those ambitious Dodgers took the measure of McGraw’s men with Grimes on the mound, by making a three-ruu rally in the ninth. The winning streak of the Brown® was broken by Detroit. The Tigers hammered Van Gilder to advantage. The once great Alex held no fears for the Braves, who sent him to the showers in the sixth Cruise hit a homer into the right field bleachers. on“ of the longest possible hits in big league parks. Ten hits In succession—one less than the major league record had been made by George H. Sisler, the Bt. Louis American Leagne star first base-man, before he went out in his second time to bat yesterday. The reco-d is held by Tris Speaker of Cleveland, who set it last year. Eight sucessive hits have been made by Ed Konetchy. Philadelphia National League first baseman, with a possibility of increasing the total today. Konetchy had a run of ten hits last year, just before Speaker set his record. No hits had been made in the fourteen and one third innings off Davis of St. Louis until the Tigers made the first of their three hits in the sixth inning Tuesday. Last Tuesday, when the Brown pitcher twirled the full distance in a nine-teen-inning victory over Washington, he held the Senators hitless in the last nine innings.

INDIANA DAILY TRIES, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 17, 1921.

INDIANS OPEN LAST WESTERN JAUNT AT K. C. Tribe Makes Great Impression Against New York and Then Departs. RUTH NOT UP TO FORM The Indians'were in Kansas City today to open their last visit in the West of the present season. They were carded to tackle the slugging Blues this afternoon and naturally they were expecting a hard series with the big fellows from the Kaw. Playing the New York Yankees in an exhibition here yesterday. tbe Tribe scored a victory. 6to 3. Babe Ruth tried his best to clout a home run, but he couldn't meet the ball properly and the best he could do was a two-base knock. The iloosiers had on their batting clothes and their all-round work reminded tiie fans of /their early season form. Pitcher Harry Harper was bumped for foun runs in the second inning and in that inning alone the Hendricksmen scored enough runs to win. In.tbe New York line-up were a mixture of stars and second-string men. Harper and Pierey divided the plltching and Hoffman and Dervormer the catching The regulars used by the Yankees were Ruth, Meusel, Pipp. Miller and Ward. A fine crowd turned out to greet Bale Ruth and although he failed to crack our a home run in tbe game, he gave a great exhibition in practice. Babe lifted the bulll over the scoreboard once for his longest drive. He also sent a few over the right-field fence without much effort. Bob Meuse] drove the pellet over the left field fence. In the exhibition AVeaver. Caret and Bartlett divided the Indians pitching and though none extended himself, the Yankees were unable to show much in the scoring line. The fielding of Gene Morrison was the game's feature. He caught two drives off Meuseis bat out near the flag pole. In the fourth inning Gene made the epectacular catch of the day. Running with his back to the stands he speared the ball by making a leap that amazed spectators and players. The work of the Tribe infield also was high class, three double plays beiug made Classy throwing by Outfielder Miller of the Yanks came in for attention also, his throw cutting down three Tribe base runners ; , The Y'unkees departed for Chicago last night, where they were card-d to meet the White Sox today. The Indian® packed up immediately after the game and left for Kansas City. BABE KITH DAY NOTES. Ruth certainly tried to deliver Ur the fans. In fact, he swung so hard he nearly spilled himself

The “Bambino” is being numbered among the greatest crowd gatherers of history. Jumbo, the elephant, the loop tbe-loop daredevil and Babe Ruth are mentioned as the three best "circus” sensations. Just before the game started yesterday the local council. Knights of Columbus, through Grand Knight Thomas J Farrell and Secretary Robert O'Connor, pr. seated Ruth with a basket of flowers. Then the movie man got busy for a short time grinding out a few nifg'e feet of film. The contest was well played, only one error occurring. Due to error on the scorecards many f ins thought McNally was driving out those long ones to the Hug pole. It was Mental. In order to bring Ruth up to bat again Bartlett walked Mitchell purposely in the ninth. But Babe simply could not connect and he struck out. Schrelber pulled the delayed steal on the big leaguers and got away with it handily. Rohreiber and Covington each got three hits. The Indians’ record against big league clubs iii exhibitions is better than their A. A. record. Ruth demonstrated his throwing powers a few times and the fans certainly gasped when cut loose.

Caddies Show Class The caddie tournament, which started at the Riverside Golf Club this week, brought out fifty three youngsters who played the course in scores ranging from the Jew medal of 96 to the high score of 203.

OH, YES, SOCIETY WAS PRESENT TO SEE THE GREAT ‘BAMBINO’

By VIRGINIA REYER. I had been looking forward to the day when Babe Ruth would come to town for a long time, so yesterday I was all excited and ready to go out to the ball paflk at 1:45 o'clock. I can remember the only other hall game I ever went to, which was when I was about 6 years old, and I know that there were very few women there, so I was quite surprised Tuesday to see that the cars labeled "Baseball Park” were about onethird filled with women. I overheard one of them say. "My dear, I'm sure I'd rather come to the ball game than the matinee any day,” and her woman companion said, "So would I.” But even then I wasn’t perpared for what greeted my eyes when we reached the park. Society was out in full force. It wa3 as much of a social event as an amateur boxing tournament or a college football game I can remember that when I went to that other baseball game my mother said, "You aren't going to take that child out to that dirty old place in good clothes are you?” AUTUMN TOGS LEND COLOR TO SCENE. From the looks of things yesterday I guess the mothers of the women who were there must have said: “Aren't you going to put on your new suit before you go to the game? You know you probably will see the Srny the-Jones there." There were many beautiful autumn costumes and many of the women carried silk umbrellas to shield their fall finery from the rain which threatened. The sport editor was explaining to me that the lb, 2b, etc. beside the players’ names oo the score card meant base positions instead of pounds, as i at first thought it might, and that I had better not lean against the screen in front of toe press box. as I might get my proboscis hurt if any one hit a foul ball, when suddenly everybody began to ap plaud and make a terrible racket. I looked down and saw a great big

fellow coming across the field and I didn’t need to be told Ihat it was the “Bambi-o.” He grinned widely and walked with the littlest steps and the gentlest manner that I ever have seen for a man of his size. The beautiful women stopped drinking pop and eating peanuts long enough to give him some very hearty applause when he started warming up and he repaid them presently by knocking a ball clear over _£.Ue clock on top of the scoreboard and out of the park. Then there WAS a demonstration uy the crowd, for people said it had never been (lone before. After that Babe wasn't satisfied, so he started "fuugoing'' and he hit the ball so high in the air that it seemed as though it never would come down. Then he knocked one over the fence again and when he swung on a ball and didn't hit it the force of the swing carried him dear around in a circle like a top. MOVIES, FLOWERS, ALL FOR THE BABE. When the game started Ruth was presented with a basket of gladiolus and the movie men took pictures of him 'u everything. Every time he came up to bat the fans would sit on the edge of their seats and hold their breath, hoping that he'd knock a home run, and they were greatly disappointed when he didn’t do it. The crowd would rather have had him make a few home runs than to have the home team win. In the last inning they walked the batter ahead of Babe so that he would have naotber chance to please the crowd, hat though he tried hard and swung or the ball as hard as he could he didn’t hit it and then it was all over and the Indianapolis team had won, 6 to 3. The society women sighed, picked up their silk umbrellas and stepped daintily into a jam that reminded one of the mob after the circus and I can imagine them at home telling the familv all about it at dinner and telling their "hubbies that it was'worth the admission price Just to see Babe knock that ball over the scoreboard during the practice.

No More Interest in International; Orioles Too Far Out in Front

By FRED TURBYVILLE, Sports Editor Baltimore Sun. BALTIMORE, Aug. 17.—It's all overeven the shouting. Since the middle of the season Baltimore has held such a commanding lead in the International League that the fang started their hurrahing early and now only await the post season clashes with the American Association, the New York Giant*, the Detroit Amenieans and the Washington Senators. Today there remains but one objective in the International League, and that is the possession of second place. Buffalo, Toronto and Rochester have been scrapping over it for the past two months and promise to keep up hostilities until September is on its last leas. No one is goiug wild over that race.

FRENCH TENNIS WONDER FALLS BEFORE MOLLA Lenglen Not in ShaDe and She Is Forced to Default After One Set. YANK IN GRAND FORM WANTS SPECIAL MATCH. NEW YORK. Aug. 17. Mite Suzanne Lenglen, French tennis champion who defaulted to Mrs. Molla B. Mallory in the Forest Hills tournament yesterday, intends to challenge her conqueror to a special match just as soon as she recovers her health, according to a statement issuesl in her behalf this afternoon. Moe I.englen plans to fulfill her engagement of exhibition matches .. , „., h .n,-ut trie country, it was stated. Sic will take part In the mixed doubles tournament at Boston this ween if her health permits. By JACK VEIOCK, International News Sports Editor. FOREST HILLS, L. 1., Aug. ii.—Molla Bjurstedt Mallory is the greatest woman tenuis player in the world. This was the verdict today of thousands of ardent devotees of the net gama who saw the Norse girl sweep Mile. Suzanne Lenglen of France from the courts iu the brief space of one set. Technically, Mile. Lenglen may still ba the international champion, but none who saw her default Tuesday to the grim, determined and brilliant Molla, after a swift aud humiliating defeat in | one set attaches any importance to a mere technicality. .Mile. Lenglen s sudden and surprising action in quitting the court came like a i bolt from a clear sky. She pleaded inability to continue the match owing to a sudden recurrence of after effects from a a attack of bronchitis and was led to the clubhouse coughing and weeping hysterically. Today, at Forest Hills Inn, where Suzanne, is stopping with her mother, it is said she will be confined to her room for a day or two. Her physician. according to attaches at the inn, ! said her case is not a serious one, but ; that she must have auiet and careful ati tentlon until relieved. The one big regret of tennis fans to- ! day lies in the fact that Mile. Lenglen did not finish the match. The Frenchie admittedly did not play her best game. The writer saw Suzanne in several matches during the recent Olympic games in Antewerp and it can be said, without hesitation, that the Lenglen who faced Mrs. Mallorv was not the Lenglen of 1919. At her best, howevfr, she could not have beaten Mrs. Mallory yesterday. ! Since the Norse giri has come into prominence in the tenr is firmament this writer has seen her in several of her most brilliant victories, but never before has sba displayed tbe dash and brilliance that was hers against Lenglen. Asa result of the Mallorv-Lpnglen match the women's thirty-fourth national : championship will be fought out tola finish among American players with the Norse a prime favorite to retaain her j title. Today's program offered several matches of unusual promise in the third ! round. Mrs. Mallory drew a comparatively unknown opponent in Miss Florence Sheldon, but Miss Mary Iv. Browne and Miss Edith Sigourney and Mrs. Benjamin Cole, national clay courts champion and Miss Martha Bayard, a player of great promise, were scheduled to furnish some thrill®. Mrs. May Sutton Bundy was slated to meet Mrs. Edward Raymond and Miss Phyllis Walsh, the Philadelphia star, was to clash with Miss Helen Gilleandeau on the exhibition courts. Meanwhile the women's doubles and the girls' national singles and doubles were' to get under way in earnest. XEW A. A. U. DISTRICT.
