More than 12.000 fans were in the park Sunday when the Indians nosed out an S-to-7 victory. It was a hot struggle and even Owner Smith of th Hoosiers sot excited. The Millers bad the edge, to 5, when the ninth lnuipg opened and the great crowd of fans was decidedly happy. Then it happened. Purcell batted for Hill after one out and sent a Texas Leaguer to left. Seib ran for him. Baird was careful and he drew a base on balls. Hank Sehreiber stepped np to the plate and gave the home fans heart failure by socking the ball for a home run. That made the count S to ft in favor of the Indians. In the Millers’ half of the ninth Magee, batting for Russell In the ninth, hit a home run, which raised the Millers' total to seven, where It stayed. The Millers got fourteen hits to eleven for the Indians. Five home runs were made, three bv the Hoosiers. Covington, Rehg and Sehreiber got circuit clouts for the Tribe.

Enter young Mr. Charlie Robertson of the Chicago White Sox, with the perfectly pitched ball rame. not a player of the hardhitting Detroit Tigers reaching first base. Dell Pratt, w York castoff, beat the Yankees with a home run lri the eighth inning. Dell should soon be promoted from the Y'ankee second team, otherwise the Boston Red Sox. The Washington Senators climbed back in the first division after a brief sojourn in the depths below, the Senators soring enough runs in the fourth Inning to beat the Athleites. The hard-hitting Cardinals rushed Alexander off the premises in the seventh Inning, and easily beat the Cubs. Pfcffer pitched very plausible ball. Another well-pitched game by Pete Donohne staked the Cincinnati Reds to one of their very few victories, the Pirates failing to score until the ninth. Bill Wambgan, who made an unassisted triple play In the 1920 World Series, collaborated with Stuffy McInnU In killing three base-runners with one hnll, but the Indian* were beaten by the Browns, at that. The Browns went Into a tie with the Yanks for first place as a result. Jimmy Ring lost his first game of the season when the Dodgers knocked the Phillies off by a score of four to nothing. Dozy Vance’s pitching was above reproach.

[ Billy Evans Says
What Old-Time Players Are Doing Since actively retiring from baseball, Hans Wagner has dabbled In several business ventures. He resides In Pittsburgh. For several years he has coached the Carnegie Tech baseball team. I understand that he la at present promoting a sporting goods store that will be under his direction. Larry l.ajoie is living in Cleveland. He doesn't look a day older than when he retired from baseball. Larry Invested his money well, is prosperous and holds down a responsible position with a prominent tire concern. Willie Keeler resides in Brooklyn. He is said to be in poor health. Once regarded as one of the wealthiest players in the game, he Is said to huve lost much of his money through bad investments. Jimmy Collins resides in Buffalo aud is a prosperous, yes even wealthy real estate operator. Jimmy McAleer is a retired capitalist. He is living a life of ease at Youngstown, Ohio. He takes a prominent part in civic affairs. Cy Young is still the farmer, lie lives at Paoli, Ohio, and has a wellstocked farm. / -I- -I- -I- -1- -!- -IGolf Has Developed Into Major Sport Golf has developed Into a major sport in the United States. From n game that was at first believed was only for the wealthy, golf is now played by all classes. “Scotland is the birthplace of golf, but America is now the home of the game and bids fair to continue to bold that position.” Is the way a prominent golfer sizes up the status of the golf game In the United States. Our best players are certainly right on a par with the stars of the old country. They have proven this In competition of the keenest sort. Perhaps next to baseball more grownups play golf than any other sport. It is fust taking a hold on the younger set. It is a game that can tie played front the cradle to the grave. Mos t sports lose their value after an indi vidual reaches a certain age, but golf, never. Golf has weaned some fans away from baseball, who, instead of merely being amused by watching a game, play golf, get the amusement, and also the exercise that goes with it.

He is Charlie Robertson, recruit White Sox pitcher, who achieved fame by pitching a no-hit, no-run, noman to first game against the Tigers yesterday. Robertson's perfect game is the third that has been pitched in the major leagues in modern times. On May 5, 1904, Cy Young, the famous pitcher of the Boston Red Sox, turned the trick against the Athletics. Addle Joss of Cleveland, twirled a perfect performance against the White Sox on October, 1908. Records show that on July 15, 1876, George Bradley pitching for St. Louis against Hartford achieved a perfect game; John Richmond, of Worcester, entered the list against Cleveland on June 12, 1880, and five days later, June 17, 1880, John M. Ward of Providence, turned in a perfect contest in a game with Buffalo. Robertson's achievement yesterday was the sixth of its kind in the history of major league ball and the first in fourteen years. Robertson is milking his third try for a regular berth with the Sox. Twice before be has been farmed out to the minors. Last year he was the star of the Minneapolis club of the American Association. His home is in Texas. Indications are that Robertson will remain with the Six this year.

ITS NOT A BED OF ROSES FOR YANK MANAGER 1 Miller Huggins Has Greatest Collection of Prima Donnas Ever Assembled. HOYT INCIDENT CLOSED By HENRY FARRELL. NEW YORK, May 1. —After he gets too old and feeble for baseball. Miller Huggins ought to retire to some restful pastime like nursing panthers from a milk bottle. His experiences with the New York Yanks gives him all the qualifications. The theories of the little trainer of wild ones are well shown by his attitude in the case of Waite Hoyt, the boy pitcher, who took a sock at him aftei Saturday's game. "The incident is closed as far as I am concerned,” Huggins said. “Hoyt is y oung and' hot headed and he had just lost a tough game. Similar things have happened to me in the past.” Huggins didn't even report the occurrence to his bosses, so it is likely that Hoyt will escape the S2OO fine that Carl Mayß got for showing his displeasure with his boss by throwing a ball over the grand stand. The Yanks are a peaceful family. Ruth and Mays don’t speak to each other. Ruth will condescend to pass the time of day with Huggins Just because Mays will not. Two of the “siar” pitching staff are out-and-out enemies of the manager and so on. Problems are ail that Huggins has experienced since he assembled the greatest collection of temperamental prima don-j nas in the history of opera and baseball,! and they ere still coming. One Robert Meusel has to be dealt with around May 20. Robert went barnstorming with Babe Ruth against orders.last fi’all and drew five weeks from Commissioner Landis. Whitey Witt was brought out of confinement with the Athletics to fill in nutil Meusel's return. Witt is playing such a game that Huggins can’t take hint out even for the well-known Bob. Huggins has so many star pitchera that he's like the old woman in the shnei. He can't work them in order and he has been forced to the extremity of pitching one of them a full game in the bull pea to keep them in condition. Southern Indiana League Shelbyville. 17; Hope, 2.
