INDIANS TAKE ON BLUES IN 4-DAY SERIES Tribe Feels Keenly Confident as Result of Checking Miller Dash. WASHINGTON PARK TALK After checking the Miller winning streak by defeating the Cantillonitea yesterday. 7 to 1. the Indians today were ready to take on the Kansas City Blues in a series opener at Washington Park. The slugging Blues will be here four days. Manager Otto Knabe's squad got here, but that's about all. Pullman thieves nearly cleaned the K. C. boys out coming over from Columbus last night and the athletes from the Kaw were not In very good mood today when they glimpsed Indianapolis for the first time this season. The coming of the Blues usually draws a big atten lance to Washington Park, and if it was not too frigid this afternoon there was expected to be plenty of noise at the Tribe plant. Brief, Zwilling. Becker. Hood. Lufzke. all wellknown to local fans, are with the K. C. gang and shouting for base hits. L'awson. a younger brother of Rex liawson. formerly with the Indians, is on the K. C. staff. It was likely that either Bartlett or Cavet would do the flinging for the Tribesmen in the opener with the Blues. The Indians were feeling plenty confident today as a result of their achievement in downing the Millers yesterday. Harry Weaver showed to great advant age on the mound despite the bad wind and he hung up his second victory of the season in tw-o starts. The Millers used McGraw and Williams and the Tribe scored off both. The visitors were a little shaky In the field and four errors were chalked against them, while the Indians refused to be bothered by the wind and played errorless ball. The sun was shining brightly yesterUav, but it didn’t mean anything. The, loyal fans shivered throughout the game. The wind had a terrific punch and the \ boys in the bleachers huddled up like > chickens on a winter roost. Purcell drove in two runs with s.if-ri floe flies. He also got a hit and stole a base. Morrison slammed out a triple for the Tribe’s oniy extra base knock. McGraw got a three-sat ker for the Millers and Jcoirdan and Wade doubles. Sehreiber and Itehg each got two hits The Indians were strong for the sacrl- I fice game, five going to their credit. : A fast double play- Weaver to Krueger to Covington pulled the Indians out of a deep hole in the second. The Millers had the bags loaded at the time. Bill Oonrov's playing at third for the j Millers was' the fielding feature. He > bandied nine assists and two putouts for ; a total of eleven chances. Quite a feat, i
Browne. Miller shortstop, had trouble with wind-blown balls. He would go ba<-k after cm, but he couldn't set himself right. Manager Cantillon rolled up his heavy artillery in the seventh, tut Weaver was too smart for the sluggers. Sberwoou Magee batted for Mayer and grounded to Sehreiber. and flawy Cravath batted for McGraw and grounded to Sicking. In explaining the ninth-inning de- . N ~n mi the disputed run of Tuesday. Umpires Murray and Freeman declared teat thev liad given a common sense ruling on the pinv. Umpire Murray said he had not called Sicking out when Baird's batted h all lilt him, because Kddie was on the bag at the time and had 1 niad- i:o effort to interfere or get in the wav of the ball. Due to the fact that Si. king was not railed out. his run counts, the third out being on Morrison, who was caught off second on the play, it w:s like this: With two out and Sicking on third and Morrison on second 1. >eut a bounder down the thirdbase line. Sicking, who had been playing i ff third, dashed back to the bag and ns he reached the sack the hall hit him . n the leg-. The Miller infield stood still momentarily and Sicking sprinted home. While he was on his way to the plate Third Baseman Conroy fielded the ball anil threw to Second Bas-man Fisher, trapping Morrison. Before Morrison was retired, however. Sicking had crossed the plare aud Umpire Murray allowed the run. making the final score 11 to 9. The rules state that a base runner hit by a batted ball is out automatically, but the nro'dr-s exnlnined that they are per mitted to give common sense rulings on certain plays which the rules do not specialty '-over, and they decided that Sicking was entitled to score. Whether the umpires were right or wrong, the run counts, because Sicking was nto called out. Catcher Dudley Williamson of Muneie, who took the spring trip with the Tribe and later sent to the Orlando team of the Florida State League with a string attached. has been returned to the Indians and probably will be sent to the lonia club of the Central League. Orlando's I'rjl catcher returned and the Florida team decided it could not afford to retain Williamson. S-hreiber nearly got a triple yesterday. In the first inning he clouted one to deep left center, but Rond-aii got both hands on the bill before dropping it and an error was chalked against the Miller Hank made three bases on the drive. Tex Covington continues to go big around the first saek. He handled nineteen chnnees yesterday without a slip. Sicking handled nine at second. Weaver Beats Millers INDIANAPOLIS. AB. R. H. O. A E.

No games in the National yesterday, Giants-Braves affair being postponed for the third time in succession. The Dodgers also were washed away in Philadelphia. while St. Louis, Chicago *’ittshurgh and Cincinnati were ov -looked for the day by the schedule framers.
AMATEURS
Holding down the center field job for the Indians this spring is Lefty Morrison. hailing out of Chicago. Lefty was here last season as a rookie and he is trying hard to land a place as a regular this year. There is nothing wrong with Morrison s fly catching ability, for when he gets in the vicinity of a sky scraper it is a certain “out.'’ Lefty is great on going back after balls hit over his head. His hitting in the early games has been light, but he is taking plenty of practice and hopes to develop sufficient batting prowess to keep himself sticking around. The fans hope Lefty makes good.

Trapshooting Year Book
The official Trapshooting Year Book for 1922 has been Issued by the American Trapshooting Association. This "Year Book” takes the place of the “Annual Review" containing the yearly list of averages. the first number having been issued in 1914. This was the first real movie made by the Interstate Association to place before the trapshooters of the country, in booklet form for future reference, data of highest interest, and also of considerable value to the very generally overworked and often misrepresented handicap committees. This year’s booklet consists of 288 pages. There coll id not possibly be a better indication of the real growth of organized trapshooting than the size of the book.
rßnzv Evans Says |
Hustler in Baseball Gets ‘Breaks? In baseball the breaks go to the hustler. The hustler makes his own breaks. A hustler runs out every batted ball. No matter how remote the chance of beating the play, he puts everything he has into a dash to first base. The result Is that he hurries the infield, causes the fielder to make the play fast anil ultra speed and accuracy do not exactly go hand in hand. The hustler may he thrown out fifty times, but he will find thai his tac ties bear fruit sooner or later. There will be a wild throw as a result of the infielder hurrying sometime and that sometime may win a ball game. Jimmy Austin of the St. Louia Browns is the best example that could be offered as a boost for hustling. At 40 years of age Jimmy Austin is still a big leaguer. For ten years bush league recruits have been trying to crowd him out of the majors, but in vain. He still sticks as a reserve inti.filer. Hustle is Jimmy Austin's middle name. He never quits. He keeps on trying, regardless of the score. Whether on the field or bench fie keeps up a constant flow of onrouraging chatter. There have been greater ball players than Jimmy Austin, but no player stands out us a better example of what can be accomplished by effort and hustle. The hustler continually makes the infielders throw when off balance He upsets them, probably not on that particular play, but he unbalances them for the succeeding play. -I- -I- -i- -I- -I- -IBush Timed Runners on Throws In fielding there is the fellow for the hustling base runner and he is the player who gets the bail away as fast as he possibly can. No matter how fast or slow the runner, he always throws quickly. The virtue of thD system is that when a throw is bad the first baseman has chance to recover the ball and still get the man. Only one lnfielder since the days of Bobby Wallace con’d loaf on throes and always get away with It. The exception was Ownle Bush. His judgment of the speed of base runners was uncanny Bush always got •run ner by a step, whether ho happened to be the fastest or the slowest man in the league He rarely ever made a bad throw and he rarely ever tailed to get hts man But It was always by the same distance. Everett Scott, one of the great shortstops of the day. always gets the ball away quickly. He has tutored himself to burry to" the limit on every play, no matter how fast or slow the runner happens to |... s. ,:• g.-ts tvball to first base as quickly as he possibly can. This Is one of the secrets of Scott's success By making plays ns Scott make* them base runners are discouraged. They will not run their best at times and often Scott gets a runner for no Other reason than the play r loafed a trifle in going to first, believing he bad no chance l<> beat Scott on the play. The speedy fielder puts the base runner at a disadvantage just as the fa*t and aggressive runner puts the llefilpr off balance.

GREB SAYS HE HAS SIGNED TO MEET DEMPSEY Harry Asserts He Is to Box Champion in Philadelphia on July 4. WOULD GO EIGHT ROUNDS BY HfcNRY FARRELL. NEW YORK, April 20.—Harry Greb. the “Pittsburgh windmill,” insists that everything has been fixed for him to pounce on Jack Dempsey in Philadelphia “the Fourth.” That isn't the half of it. Greb further Insists that he'll walk out of the ring after the eighth round with the well-known popular decision in his possession. The match has not been officially announced, but since Greb says it has been signed and since Jack Kearns said as be was leaving for Europe: "Don't be sur prised if we have Greb in Philadelphia” —it seems the show has been arranged. Unless the champion is in need of money to replenish what Imndon and Paris will take out of his roll, it is a Ring Program Tonight at Ft. Harrison Show Bobby Lee. Indianapolis, vs. Frankie Jones, Louisville, fifteen rounds to a decision, at 148 pounds. Jack Brooks vs. Kid Hayes, eight rounds at 15S pounds. Battling Manifold, Ft. Harrison, vs. Bud Conlin, Indianapolis, four rounds at catch weights. Battle royal. Final bout at o:30 o'clock. bad move for him to have anything to do with Greb. He has nothing to gain tut some dollars, and everything to lose by mingling with a wild-acting boy who is about the most incorrigle person In the ring. Loud laughs, no doubt, would greet a serious prediction, but Greb would have a chance with the champion. No one would dare intimate that he might knock out Dempsey, but a iot of ring sharps believe he could stay eight rounds. It is agreed that he would make things mighty interesting while he lasted. Greb goes on the assumption that he can move so fast in eight rounds that Dempsey can’t get set to put over one of his pet shots. He made the same predictions about Tom Gibbons and he went right out and proved it when every one wag calling him “poor boy.” Dempsey wouldn’t get any credit if he knocked out Greb. His reward would 1 e a raspberry for picking on a little fellow. Greb. on the other hand, would get all the credit. If he came anywhere near outpointing the champion in eight rounds, sentiment would give him the popular decision, and if he were knocked out. he would be praised to the skies for bla gameness. | Additional Sports Page 11
