PITCHERS SHOW STUFF AGAINST GIANT SECONDS Better Form Displayed by Moundsmen Morrison Plays ‘Babe’ Ruth Role. INFIELD DISPLAYS CLASS MARLIN, Texas. March 27.—Manager Jack Hendricks' Indianapolis American Association club today was stalking around with much eclat following the defeat handed to the New York National second team here Sunday afternoon in which the Indians battered two Giant pitchers for ten hits, four of which were homers, while the Indian pitchers. Hill. Petty and Caret stood the big leaguers off and performed in grand style. The work of the Tribe's pitchers far exceeded their previous performances and Hendricks has lost a few of the worries which were occasioned by recent actions of his hurling corps. The Indians maltreated McGlaughlin and Rachac, hopping on them early in the contest for three runs. The game "Sunday was a long distance hitting contest with the two clubs dividing honors for home runs. The Tribe annexed the game through superior defensive play, the Indians' infield rallying around the pitching several times. The fame was played without error. Eight omers were chalked up by both clubs, Lefty Morris- a. Indianapolis center fielder, leading in this respect with two, and tringing his spring training game record to four circuit drives. Jess Petty was touched for all the runs which the Giants made, but despite tuis fact the big left hander was going through his best work this spring and the five runs which were tallied off him probably never would have happened in a larger park where the outfielders would have had a chance to get the long hits. Hill started the game for the Indians and it appeared that he was to remain in the box for a short time when he walked the first three men to step to the plate. He recovered brilliantly, however, and pulled out of the mire by striking out the next three. Not a hit or a run was made off his delivery in the three innings he occupied the hillock and se struck out five of the Giants* hitters. Petty who relieved him, found matters a bit rougher and home run hitting accounted for ail the chaikers against him. Lefty Morrison put the team in the lead by dropping the ball out of the lot in the seventh frame for his second homer of the" afternoon. The game was salted away In the eighth through an error on Rehg’s grounder, a walk to Attreau, and Purcell's bunt, which developed into a hit when the speedy outfielder outran the throw by Hale. Schreiber responded with a scarifice fly which counted Rehg. NOTES OF THE TRIBE. Larry Kopfs young brother, Walter, has made a likely showing with the Giants but probably will never see New York as a Giant player, as he doubtless will be shipped back to the minors. Casey Stengel, the veteran outfielder, is in better shape than ever before, he asserts, and has prospects for a big year. Stengel is said to be certain of his Job as utility outfielder for the Giants and pinch hlttor according to the scribes who are following the springtime stuff of McGraw's movements. Stengel is one of the best known characters in the game today, is a great hitter and popular with the fans in the big leagues. The game today was the final one for the Indians in Texas. The club will leave Marlin for Sapulpa Wednesday evening, Tulsa will be played March 31, April 1 and 2 and the team will arrive home April 3. Weather conditions for the game Sunday with the Giants was anything but ideal and the railbirds were few. A niere handful of Marlinltes gathered up enough courage and baseball fever to face the cruel, sharp winds which whistled a merry tune throughout the nine innings. Os course, the players on both teams felt the effects of the "norther." Dudley Williamson, third string catcher of the Indians, was sent to the OrOrlando Florida State League team today on an optional agreement. Wllliamaon reported to the Tribe as unknown quality and has made a fine impression. He will leave for hia new berth Wednesday.
MVchSchool It 6oon will -be open season for the “Comedy of Errors,'' tbe annual drama of the baseball diamond. The seniors and sophs weren’t in it in the class tourney held at the Hartford. City High School Saturday. The Juniors beat the freshmen la the final game which went overtime, 16 to 11. It's spring vacation in the local high schools for the desk warmers, but not for the athletes. They will keep plugging away all week. Spring football sni to have quite a grip on Indiana high schools, especially those of a rather large enrollment. Quite a number of high schools over the State are trying it mainly as an experiment, but they undoubtedly will recognize its merits after a short while. If a coach can take a bunch of prospective material in the spring and teach them the fundamentals of the game. It will save long hours of practice in the fail. Local sport fans in all probability will get a chance to see Vandivier and Gant, Franklin High School basket-ball stars. In anew role this spring if Franklin Is successful in scheduling baseball games with one or more of the local high schools. Vandivier holds down the hot corner while Gant is working out at the initial sack. About forty candidates responded to the call for baseball material at Franklin. Practically all of the bas-ket-ball men were in the squad. It is hard to realize that Franklin has shifted her attention from basket-ball long enough to make a stab at a championship baseball team.

She insists that I'm good.” The dethroned champion Dnodestly refrained from saying there wfrre very good reasons for Alice’s contentions; that for years he had been the dominating figure in the billinrd world; that no champion in nt.y sport had showed greater superiority: that be had been monarch o* all he surveyed un>il the late Jake Schaeffer's brilliant son, a chip off the old block, unexpectedly unhorsed him last November. “I'm in excellent shape, mentally and physically," said Hoppe, who is 34 and looks younger. I have been training hard with Charlie Peterson in St. Louis. I practiced systematically—two hours In the morning, two hours at night. I " "Mr, Peterson told me,” broke in Alice, “that Dad is in wonderful form—never better —that he made runs of 340, 434, 447 and 454 and averaged 100 for 3,500 points.” “Tut, tut,” admonished "Dad.” *'Oh, Dad,” she said, in mock exasperation, "you know you're good and that you're going to win, don’t you?” "I guess I've got to," said Dad, looking at his mascot seriously.

GOOD PITCHING STAFF IS BEST PIRATE ASSET Weak Hitting Club Doped to Be in Raee Because of Sterling Twirlers. SCHMIDT IS HOLDOUT BY DAVIS J. WALSH. HOT SPRINGS, Ark., March 27. Glance down the probable batting order of the Pittsburgh Pirates and you will note a list of estimable young men who score not, neither do they hit. There is scarcely a normal .300 hitter in the entire array. Fielding? Quite all right. Pitching? Yea, oh yea, an ample sufficiency. Speed? A great plenty. Looking over the regular line-up, we have selected btu three men who figure to be there with the stick. They are Charley Grimm, a great first baseman: Carlson Blgbee, the outfielder, and Walter Schmidt, the catcher. Rabbit MarauvUle is a good little man in a pinch, tut doesn't figure to hit above .260. Indeed. Grimm has yet to achieve anvthlng faintly resembling a. .800 average in his two seasons as a regular, although he Is considered a good hitter. Os course, Hal Trayner, the new second baseman, and Clyd* Barnhart at third, may come through with the stick and in that case we will be constrained to revise our estimates. In the outfield. Gibsen has engineered a shift, sending Max Carey to left field and Bigbee to center. This is being done to prolong Carey's basebuil life, now gently waning. Max is another of those not altogether robust hitters. He gets on a lot, however. Right field will be left to the tender mercies of Hay Kohwer and Johunv Mokar.. The Pirates, it will be recollected, got away running last year aud made a show of the National League race until they caved in abruptly in mld-Septeiu-ber. Here again you have the matter of hitting. On that 1921 team were Rabbit Maranvilee hitting up around .370, for the greater part of the early sea- I son ; George Cutshnw about the same figure and "Cotton" Tierney, a recruit, eVen higher. All were ranging 100 points above and beyond their respective heads. Therefore, when they began to come back to normal the club started to lose. There is not better balanced pitching staff in all baseball than that mustered by the Pirates, and for this very esseu- j tial reason, the team must be regarded as a penaut contender from first to last, j No two ways about it, they are really ! the downright goods and appear to be in great condition. The venerable Babe Adams, In baseball thirteen years, still can win a lot of games in the spring and fall, if nursed along carefully; Wilbur Cooper and E.xrl ; Hamilton are a pair of the finest left- I handers In the land, and the two Johnnies—Glazer aud Morrison—were the Anns of the National League last year. Just now the catching department Is In a bad way. Walter Schmidt is cooling his heels In his California bungalow, waiting for Dreyfus to meet demands at s three-year contract at $lO,000 per ich. Dreyfus says he won't, but with Heaffner suspended by Judge Landis for the season, something will have to be done about the matter. At the moment, John Gooch, who came up to the club from Birmingham at the close of the 1921 season, is the leading catcher. John Is nobody's tramp. We liked the way he handled himself today. Hennessey and Campbell Lead C. of C. Five to Win Over All-Star Omar Team The Junior Chamber of Commerce basket-ball team won from the Omars In the last and deciding contest of a threegame series at the I. M. C. A. Saturday night, 40 to 33. The game was nip and tuck all the way and only the exceptional basket shooting of Hennessey and Campbell in the last half won for the Commerce flvev The lead changed hands repeatedly in the first half neither team holding the edge long. Stonebraker and Voss used their height to an advantage and counted often from under the basket. White did some excellent foul shooting in the first half, which ended 13 all. The Omars started big in the second half and piled up a large lend, but could not hold It for long as the C. C. five gradually closed up the distance and when they came within one point of tie lng the score Campbell, cut loose with three field markers in succession for the winners, giving them a five point lead. Near the dose of the game Hennessey added another field marker which gave the winners a seven point lead which the losers tried desperately to cut down, but with no success. Hennessey and Campbell were easily the stars of the game with their phenomenal basket shooting, while Moffett played a great defensive gaino for the Ouiars. In the curtain raiser the De Molays won a close game from the Y. M. H. A. five, 23 to 22, pulling the contest out of the fire In the closing minutes of play.
Cutover Wins Legion Net Title in Bedford M et BEDFORD, Ind., March 27.—Cute r won the State American Legion basketball championship here Saturday night in the Bedford High School gymnasium, de feating Ft. Wayne In the final game or the tournament. 17 to 13. Frauds Morris of the Ft. Wayne team received the Chamber of Commerce medal for displaying the best sportsmanship and mental attitude d*uring the tourney. Cutover opened the tourney Friday night with a 17-to-0 victory over Salem and Bedford won the other game of the night from Anderson by the score of 21 to 0. Ft. Wayne trimmed Crown Point in the first game Saturday morning, 32 to 12, and in the second morning game South Bend forfeited to Ladoga. Bedford was eliminated by the Cutover team in the semi-finals, 23 to 17, and Ft. Wayne was returned victor In the other semi-final contest over Ladoga, 23 to 15. Weather Hinders Butler Inclement weather prevented a double work-out this morning for the Butler College baseball squad, bnt the aspirants for the Blue and White nine braved the rain and mud long enough for n lengthy afternoon session. Both morning and afternoon practices were originally scheduled. but weather conditions early today made the morning session practically impossible. With the first game of the season with the Indianapolis American Association Indians Ji ,st ten days distant, Coach Page has men carded for some overtime work In an effort to simmer the large squad down to a well-rounded baseball team. A largo squad will be carriec all year and it is probable that no more cuts will bo made by the Christian mentor, but the fight the twenty men are waging for regular positions Is a merry one.

By HENRY L FARRELL. NEW YORK, March 27.—Yale, Harvard and Princeton still pet each other with the notion that there is no place but Princeton, Harvard and Yale. Having been told there Is something terribly wrong with football. Harvard, Princeton and Yale, have set about to find a cure in their characteristic fashion. One of the surest remedies suggested is that Yale, Princeton and Harvard play only at New Haven, Princeton and Cambridge, thereby not Subjecting their teams to contamination from the wicked outside world. The Insinuation is also carried that those not fortunate enough to attend Yale, Harvard of Princeton should come within the fortresses of virtue thrown around the football fields of the “big three" and see how the game can be made safe for the innocents. Intersectional games are also frowned upon, the suggestion being offered that Yale, Harvard and Princeton should care for nothing elite but the “big three" games. After holding up Yale, Harvard aud Princeton as the lofty examples of football perfection. It is rather strange ' to see the "doctors” t.'om the three institutions approve of anew rule that would require every athlete to give a financial statement showing all his sources of revenue. No doubt the West and South will be quite shocked to learn that a contaminated athlete might go to Yale, Harvard or Princeton. There seems to be e lot of smoke about the necessity of cleaning up football. Many of the sore spots that seem to have been found on the game are imaginary. Just because some Ill.’nols and Notre Dame players went on a lark and played in a professional football game, so we nre expecting the wrath of the Gods to fall on the Nation. The ones that are veiling the loudest about star college athletes getting some j money out of their talents are the same ] ones that are doing the same thing— | conches, graduate managers, both of which classes are commanding twice the \ money that a player can get for an oc- j casional game.

fpiLUABDs] POCKET CUE CHAMP HERE. Ralph Greenleaf, world’s champion pocket billiard player, and James Thompson, known as the “Carolina boy wonder,” nre in the city for their exhibitions at the Denison billiard parlors today and tomorrow. It is the first appearance here of Greenleaf since he won the title three years ago and ids exhibitions are expected to draw large crowds. Greenleaf offers SSO to any local player who beats him in any' 150ball match and several of the local shooters have been tuning up their cues in the hopes of giving the champion a trimming. The afternoon games will start at 3:30, while the night games will be started at 8:30. That Greenleaf is playing in great form is evident from the fact thut on Friday night while engaging in exhibition play with Thompson at Logarispurt, Ind., the champion made a high run of 200 balls without a miss. Landis Plays Santa Claus DALLAS, Texas, March 27.—An unexpected present went along with the world’s series emblems which Baseball Commission IC. M. Landis presented to the members of the New York Nationals Sunday in the form of a check for each member. It Is each player’s own money, but a slice he did not expect to get. When the world series was played last year, 1 per cent was held out by the national commission in the belief that nonresidents had to pay it into tae New York State income tax fund. It since has been discovered that this is not necessary. Tho money, therefore, was paid to the players. It amounted to approximately SSO per man.
