Tendler Lucky to Get Draw in Scrap With Friedman in 8 Rounds

Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. PHILADELPHIA. Aug. 25.—Lew Tend ier was lucky to get a draw after eight rounds of terrific milling at the Philadelphia ball park last night with Sailor Friedman of Chicago. Thp YVestern lightweight took all that Tendler could hand out and was on hi* feet at the finish. In fact he was the stronger of the two when the bell rang, ending th- contest. Tendler's blows lacked steam. He landed enough in the twenty-four minutes of milling to beat any lightweight less sturdy. But Friedman, who was seemingly’ trained to the mlnnte. blocked many of the blows which were intended to land on a vulnerable spot and by his splendid ring generalship was able to throw his head from side to side, lessening the force of Tendler's punches. Friedman's blows proved the more effective. This was evidenced by the trickle of blood which flowed from Tend ler's lips and the marks on the southpaw's face at the finish. Friedman bore little marks of the encounter, which Indicated that Tendler's punches lacked force. In the preliminaries Johnny Dundee outboxed Joe Tiplitz and Danny Kramer earned the decision over Charlie I.edoux. K. O. George Chaney knocked out Harry Stone in the second round.—Copyright, 1921. by Public Ledger Cos. ZBTS7.KO GOES HOME. NEW YORK.

Planning for Series PITTSBURGH, Ang. 25—Tentative Fdans have been made by Barney Dreyuss of the Pittsburgh National League Club to erect additional grand stands at Forbes field here to seat 10.000 persons. In view of the stride the Pirates are making toward capturing the National League pennant. It is proposed, providing the city grants permission, to raise thirty rows of seats in left and center fields, which will increase the seating capacity of the field to 36.000 persons. The stands will be built with an eye to conserving the piaying field and Infringing upon the grass as little as possible. However, no architect will be called in until club officatls feel that the Pirates l-ractiially have the pennant in their possession. but just when the owners believe that will be, none care to aay.

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, AUGUST 25, 19Z1.

Times Carrier Ball Loop Develops Fine Material for Game Umpires Select Two All-Star Teams That Stack Up High Class. Selecting an all-star baseball team is a rather difficult task, even where there is sufficient material to permit each player to play on his team in the position where he is best adapted. The task of selecting the first and second all-star teams from the Times Currier’ League was mude much more difficult owing to the fact that the players were often compelled to play out of their natural positions through a lack of material. The five Times umpires have selected the following boys for the first aud second teams. FIRST TEAM. Rollie Shaffer (Station R), if: Harold Davis (Station R). cf; Norval Doran (Stutlon U), rs; Theodore Junker (Station P) aud Logsdon (Station C), 3b; Lace Campbell (Station O), 2b; Lee McCormick (Station K), lb: Joe Cave (Station P), ss; John Schieroan (Station 1’), catch; Earl Karnp (Station O) and Wane Gill (Station P), pitch. SECOND TEAM. Art Logsdon (Station O), If; John Vannonstrandt (Central), cf; E. Montgomery (Station G), rs; Morris Fred (Station <J), 3b; Vernon Liddell (Station P), 2b; Arthur Norman (Station l ) and Russell Ilurbisou (Station X>, lb; Meridetb Rose (Station U), ss; Don YVhitlnger (Station K) and Elmer Lenihan (Station S), catch; Harold Davis (Station R) and Bob Huffman (Station S). pitch. Wane Gill and Lyman Logsdon deserve special mention as being the best all-round players in the league, ami proved to be the greatest assets to their teams. Lawrence Golay, who pitched for Station G. and Cobb, who was catcher for the same station, deserve favorable mention. In selecting these youngsters for the two all-star teams the five umpires considered their ability as players, mental attitude and their physical qualification for the position for which they were selected. Only such players who have played in a major portion of the league games were considered. The players were given a two hours’ try-out at the position for which they were selected. In a few instances it was found necessary to select two players for the same position. It would be difficult to find a team in the 13 or 14 year-old classes of the city which could defeat these youngsters, according to tho opinion of the Carrier League umpires and others who gave close attention to the games this summer.

Rosroe Sarles and Eddie Hearne already jotted down on the entry list. It is clearly evident that this year's automobile races at the Indiana State Fair are going to bring together the greatest collection of stars that ever performed on a dirt track before Indiana fans. The management of the fair races announces that this group of drivers, all of whom are known wherever speed autos draw attention, will be here for the big dirt track show on the last day of the fair, and the rivalry among them should be just as keen on the fairground oval as it is in the big races at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

The local fair races are among the biggest in their line in the country, and they offer the drivers a good chance to show their stuff.

MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 25.—Jack Hendricks piloted his rejuvenated band of Indians into town today to take on th<j pennant-ambitious Millers and the seriei opening here this afternoon promises to be one of the most exciting of the sea-; son. Local fans fear the Hoosiers, for it was the Tribe that handed the Millers a set-back some time ago and from the looks of the Indian-Milwaubee series closed In the Brewer City yesterday the followers of the Minneapolis team hav( reason to be shaking in their boots. Apparently the Hoosiers have aevelj oped a winning streak from the look! of their recent : record and it is that streak that is causing concern here.

Tex Covington got a noma and triple for the extra-base slugging honors and Hank Schreiber was promil nent also with a brace of triples. Bog Kinsella took a batting bulge for th day and aided materially with a doubty and two singles. Doug Baird, leading base thief of th( league, didn't get a chance to increasj his theft total due to an argument hi had with Umpire Johnson. Doug wa( banished from the game in the fourth but he was due back in the line-up in the series opener with the Millers her) this afternoon.
