CHICAGO CUBS IN TOWN FOR TWO-DAY CARD Some Former Local Favorites Here With Windy City National Entry. INDIANS TRIM TIGERS After sending the Detroit Tigers to the cleaners for a 7-to-2 count Sunday the Indians today -were ready to match their prowess against the Chicago Cubs la the first contest of a two-game exhlbitido series. The Cubs came to town forty strong, the party Including players, coaches, trainers and newspaper men. The Windy City National League entry trained on the Catalina Island oft the coast of California this spring and the squad is Just finishing a long jaunt from the Land of the Setting Sun. The Cubs open the National League season in Cincinnati Wednesday and will hike out of here tomorrow night for the Queen City. The “Million Dollar Club” haa k mixture of rets and youngsters and although hopeful. It hardly can put forth any strong claims to pennant rating. Local fans will see some old former favorites wh'i the Cubs trot out on Washington Park. Grover Cleveland Alexander, the famous flinger, formerly pitched here, but was permitted to get a wav without much trial. Marty Krug, obtained by the Cubs from the Coast League, was an inflelder here with the Tribe several season ago and also Kelleher, who short stopped for the Indians back in 1914. Vic Aldridge of Indian Springs, Ind, who got his start here, is again with the Cubs. Pitching ns the “Hoosier Schoolmaster” when with the Tribe, he was sold to the Cubs, later shifted to the Coast League and now gives every promise of doing a come-back as a major league hurler. Manager Bill Klllefer is quartering his squad at the Severin Hotel, where an entire floor Is being occupied by the Chicago party. The exhibition today was scheduled to get under way at 3 o'clock. The Indians looked mighty sweet against the Detroit outfit Sunday, their hitting being especially timely. Both Hill end Weavo-r displayed good form on the mound and apparently are ready j for the strenuous A A. season, opening Wednesday. Hill looked 60 good that It j is likely that he will be selected to pitch the opening game against the Saints. k Weaver showed his same nifty curve and,' 'though he was Inclined to be wild, he doubtless will have control mastered with more work. Morrison, Picking and Pchre!b<*r col- • leeted three bits each off of Cole, the southpaw used by Ty Cobb. Baird got the longest hit of the afternoon, a threesacker to right center. It was an ideal day and more than 4,500 fans were present. The Indians got fourteen hits to seven for me big leaguers. Harry Heilman, champion percentage batsman of the American League, proved he was ready for another assault on rival pitchers. He got a double and-two singles. George Cutshaw cracked out three singles. Heilman and Cutsbaw got six of the Detroit hits. Bassler being the only other Tiger to find a safe spot. Feature fielding of the afternoon was contributed by Covington and Rehg for Indianapolis and Rigney for Detroit. Rlsrney Is holding down Ownle Bush's old job at short stop for the Tigers. He didn't stack up as much of a hitter Sunday. Jones, Tiger third sacked has a shotgun arm. The sun bothered Rehg In left field Fcudav. He has not had sufficient practice there this spring to get familiar with the blaze. Cmplres Geisel and Gardner got along very well with the officiating. Fotherglll. a Detroit sub outfielder. Is built like Ping Boole, only wider. Manager Cobb, still slightly crippled, directed his team's play fom the bench. Ernie Krueger came through wPh two safeties. His bitting surely will help the Indians. Purcell had one of th'o3e zero days. He was up four times and get ''nothing.’' In the field he didn't have a chance. Detroit newspaper men. four strong, expressed admiration of the Tribe Infield lineup. ‘ They also expressed Interest in Gene Morrison. Looks like there's going to be a fight on for that center field job. The Tigers will go Into the American League fight Wednesday at Cleveland without their leader, Tyru* Raymond Cobb. Until yesterday hope was held out that the famous batsman and baserunner would be able to take his plaee In the field for the opening game, but physicians said It would be several days before|l)e could play again. His injured leg has not healed as rapidly as had been expecte 1 and Ty announced sadly_ Panday the ae „J not expect to play In the first g.me and perhaps not for a week or more aier the season starts. The Tribe looks like a pennant contender sure if the pitching staff delivers effectively. John Paul Jones, released by the Indians last season when he was unable to Iron the kinks out of his throwing arm, is going to be given another chance. He has been working out lu the South and Informed Owner Smith that he felt capable of delivering again In case Jones Is able to do a come-back Manager Hendricks’ pitching staff worries just about will be over. Keep yourself tuned op for big open- , ing Wednesday. Give the Indians a real send-off!

Big league shortstops who have been at Washington Park this spring In exhibition games with the Indians have not shown any better than Hank Schretber, the flashy youth who cavorts in that territory for .Tack Hendricks Boosters. Hank gets the ball away in pistol-like fashion and It looks like another big season for Tribe double plays. In addition to fielding well Schreiber is also getting his share of hits, three being his total against Detroit Sunday. Last season #flnnk was bothered by stomach trouble, but still managed to have a great year. In fact he looked fjo good that he got a chance to finish out the season as infield utility man for the New Y'ork Giants. The past winter Schreiber underwent an operation for appendicitis and he says he believes the stomach trouble vanished along with his appendix. He certainly fits In well between Doug Baird at third and Edlde Sicking at second.
Billy Evans Says
You Cart Be Over-Golfed In baseball, batters have their slumps, which usually are Impossible of explanation. In football, teams trained to the minute for a most Important game Immediately fall off in their rlay after that game. , Champion buyers In a no-decislpn bout often look like eecond-raters In some contest in which their opponent Is a very ordinary fighter. It Is the same In golf, even the very best of the professionals and amateurs are off their game occasionally. Very often In trying to discover why their game Is so badly off they press it and develop new faults. Going golf stale is a condition that is very often overlooked when some player slumps badly in his game. He is simply over golfed and doesn’t realise ft. ‘Often a rest of a week or two at such a time immediately will restore a player to his old-time form. k , , , Golfing, however, gets such a hold on lovers of the game that stalenesa is the very last thing jl golfer thinks about when his game goes bad. He tries to attribute It to any number of other faults. He doesn't want to admit ha is golf stale, simplv because he gets so much enjoyment out of playing the game. -|- -|- -1- -1- -I- -I1S Holes Enough for Day All of which leads up to the question as to what Is the proper number of holes for a golfer to play In a day. . „ . „ One often hears a boast how he has played 45 holes. Occasionally hear someone insist he covered 54 holes. However,, it is best to accept such a statement with the belief that possibly the golfer got a bit mixed on his C ° U i r recall a of considerable ability who went South last winter for a month and came back boastJnjj that he had played 3d holes every day whi.e on his vacation. He didn’t bra? about his score, however, admitting that 1145 was playing a poorer game when he left the South than when he started. The beht golfers neeui agreed that IS holes Is the ideal day 9 play* Often a player goes out to his club early in the morning to spend the day. Ha ensilv plays 1H holes in the morning. After s bit of luncheon and a aligh*. rest he is usually anxious for 18 more holes of competition. It would be much better for the golfer’s game if instead of engaging in competition he would do a little practicing on the shots in which he was deficient during the morning’s play. . It is alwavs possible to overdo a good thing, rhe golf giutton who floes 45 holes a dav should draw censure instead of being complimented. It is stupidity rather than an achievement. . lit baseball, football and boxing or golf a decided slump can mora orten be traced to staleness than any other cause.

CLEAN HOUSE AT PRINCETON Eighteen Athletes Declared Ineligible—Loan System Probable Cause. By HENRY FARRELL. NEW YORK, April 10.—Big brooms are working on spring house-claauing around the “big three.” Princeton started it and Yale and Harvard will have to follow it, for the simple 1 ' reason that Princeton puts it up to them to do the same thing. Eighteen athletes at Princeton, by a ruling of the athletic committee, have been declared ineligible to compete in varsity sports. Tom McNamara, captain of the baseball team and a sub end on last year's football eleven, a id Ralph Gilroy, foottall star, are the only ones whose names have been made public. The committee wished to make it known emphatically today that it had not said to Vale and Harvard: “We have done our part, now it’s up to you to clean up.” The committee also insists that tho stigma of professionalism does not fall upon any of th Ineligible men and that their honor is in no way besmirched. While it was not admitted officially, it Is generally regarded that the eighteen are the first victims of the “loan system" which works along this line: \lr. So-and-So, a wealthy alumnus, sees a great high school or prep school star at such-and-such place. He goes to him with a pat on tha back and asks him where he is going to matriculate. The boy says he has to go (o work. He has no money to go to college. The kind benefactor then tells him to set aside his worries, to take the examinations at hts alma mater and that his tuition will lie paid and that he will be allowed so much spending money. All the money that Is put out on him can be paid back when he makes good in tbe big ofitside world. There are a few records of thoso loans being called or pain. Klein Wins Shoot For the second time this season Seth Klein won the weekly trap shoot of the Indianapolis Gun Club Suturday afternoon. Klein broke ninety-six out of 100 birds and was a single bird ahead of Harry C. Stutz and Ed Blessing of Danville, Ind. In taking the week’s honors Klein turned in two perfect 25 events. He scored a 23 In each of the first and final events and perfect counts In . the second and third events. In the doubles event Bud Edmonson wnh high man, breaking forty-two birds out of twenty-five pairs. Seth Klein had thirty-seven birds out of twenty-five pairs and Harry C. Stutz broke thirtyfive out of fifty. The Indianapolis Gun Club Is planning s Wednesday afternoon shoot on April 19. At this extra event beginners will be given instruct ion of how to handle the gun, aim and other pointers which will enable them to become shooters. • Beginners or visiting shooters may obtain shells and guns at tho clubhouse. _ SPADE A.

WHITE SOX AND DODGERS PICE UP SOME SPEED Clubs May Do Better in Respective Loops Than First Expected. TEAMS WIN IN SOUTH NEW Y'ORK, April it)- —Two weeks is quite an interval If you happen to spend it in jail or lu a dentist’s chair. Almost anything can happen in that time from a decision In a chess match to the payment of the tailor’s bill. it is, therefore, nobody’s particular business that the status of some of the major league ball clubs has altered recent weeks; the fact Is mentioned for the sake of giving credit where credit is due. We do not refer to the potential pennant contenders. On the contrary, our observation concerns a pair of clubs we picked for the second division, towit: The Brooklyn Dodgers in the National League and the Chicago White Sox in the American. Both have uncovered unsuspected depths since venturing into the South, the Dodgers in eight out of thirteen games with the Y'anks, the Sox in holding the world’s champion Giants to a six-all stand off. Your Uncle Robbie has succumbed to custom and habit In once again bringing his pitching staff out of theJSouth in grand condition and figures to win many a ball game in tha first etx weeks of the race. A young person named Andy High,l brother of all the other Highs from Hughey on down the line, has rounded out the Brooklyn Infield from a defensive standpoint, and to date everything has been as sweet as a demure glance. The Dodgers may yet break into the first division. Os the White Sox, that much cannot be expected. They are Just coining up for air after the upheaval of 1919, but they are Just good enough to go a long way if they get any kind of pitching. Far from finishing last, as some of the boys would have it, they may step right along at the head of the second division, where they can nibble at the leaders from time to time. At times this spring the Sox have looked like a cool million behind Faber, proving what good pitching wil! do for a ball club. When Dick Kerr returns, as he will ’do, and if Wilkinson, Hodge, Robertson or any one of the young pitchers come through, the White Box will be no man’s sap. The left side of the infield might be better, but otherwise the club Is fool proof.
