INDIANS BACK IN RUNNER-UP PLACE IN RACE Tribe Climbs Again When Hens Are Downed in Thriller —Second Contest Today. JESS PETTY DELIVERS Back :n second place as a result of kno< king off the Ttdedo Hens, 0 to 4. yesterday In a contest filled with strife, tiie Indians hoped to <lo it some more in the second game f the series. Fug Civet looked like the probable choice for the Tribe pitching assignment this afternoon, though the tali southpaw hag been under the weather sligatly, and It was not an assured fact he would work. In case Catet was not ready, there was a possibility that Claude Jonnard wohld be sent in against the Hens. An added attraction was on the pro gram today in the way of a walking vs. running contest. George Brown*, champion walker, who is appearing at Keith s this week, planned to walk around the bass twice while four hall players circl.nl the sacks, one trip ca-h at their best sprinting speed. Baird and Sicking were the members of the Indians chosen to sprint, and i atuar atwi -Murphy were to run for tie Hens. Brown has engaged in sin.ilar contests before and usually Las wen. and local sport fans were anxious to see if he could beat the best sprinters in the current Series at Washington Bark. There was plenty of action at the Tri'ae lot yesterday when the Indians downed the Hens in the series opener. Two Hens, Catcher Kocher and Third Baseman Whitted. the* manager of the visitors. were banished from j the game by Imp ire Daly after aj Mg fuss over a decision at the plate. ; Kocher lost compute control of hiu?*eif and jostled Italy in threatening fashion ; and Whitted added to the fuss by oou- i

vers'ng with the umpire in a pugnacious (nai.io r. When it appeared as though the Toledo athletes were going to pro long the argument Field Urnpir- Conuol ]y signalled to a cop at: l "the law " went out on the field and b:s presence Sum quieted the disturbance. Umpire Daly was it: the right tn his ruling at the plate and he was right again when he ?--?:t K oiler and Whitted *3* the field. Th> fuss —curved in the seventh inning. Betty had surprised everybody by starting the Tribe half of thinning with a triple. Baird sent a I-ng fly to t'entcrfielder King, who made a superb throw tc> the plat. The throw was an Instant late, however, for Betty touched the rubber before Ko-her pint the ball on him. It was sh- tying run and th Hens launched a terrific howl, ultimate result of ■which caused th* banishment of K. -her and Whitted. TU-re was another decision at the piate earlier in the game that displeased th- Hens and Umpire l)aty was also correct in his dihgnosis ou that. Hill was on first in tile fifth wh< n Sicking hit a safety to right. Boone tried to trap the ball and it went through him and was retrieved hr G rimes. Hill kept running and when iie reu- hed the plate Uateher Kocher tripped him and sent him sprawling and tumbling beyond the pdare. Kucher’s interference was very plain, for HUI was lifted off his feet and turned peer in the air. Os course Hill was prevented from touching the Plate before Kocher touched him with the ball, but Umpire I>air very properly ruled the run counted because of the interference on the part of the Hen catcher. Hill started ttie game on the mound for the Indians and after his experience with Kocher he was withdrawn and Bet*;, sent to the mound. Je-s proved quite a her'for he baited the Hens withs- rne good pitching arid got himself a triple and a single in his two times ut bat. SHm Sfiiiee, veteran of many major league battles, twirled for th* Hens ami the Indians hit him Just hard enough l‘> win. Sicking and Covington each got three hits and Sohreiber and Betty two each. Brown and Krueger also cut in with a hit apiece. The Tribe garnered twelve safeties and tise Hens n’ne. Ten of the afternoon's hits were for extra bases. Sicking got two trip'es. Kru-ger a double, Schreiber a double and Betty a triple For the Hens. King got a triple and double. Kor.etchy a triple. Grimes a triple anti Sallee a double. The attendance showed a slight gain yesterday. Rome of *he hard-boiled fans stnr'ed to "ride'' Fcty when he relieved Hill, but he had fb-:n cheering him later by halting the Hens and doing effective work with the bat.

The first man to face Petty was King, who tripled. S.-breiber tossed out thnext batter. Kocher then grounded to Kelirelher and King tried to s<*or-. Hank headed him back with a quick throw to Kroujrer rtnd Krueger's 'brow to Baird got the Hen sliding back to third. Gene Morrison has been in a hattinir slump. 11- i trying hard to coaie out of it, but it is proving a mighty task. Konetchy's triple !n the second Inning went beyond the flag pole. It was a hefty swat. Tnfielder Mee has been released by the Hens. Amos Ingalls. Syracuse University star signed by the Indians, has had his college athletic letters revoked, because he left the institution before the term closed.

The boys, he said, were In a hitting slump but It wouldn’t last long. “They ill fell Into a slump together,” he declared. “That, and some bad breaks caused us to drop series after series, but we still lead the National League race and we oxpt-ct to continue to do so.”
