Extra Inning Games Feature Opening of Ti mes Baseball Tourney

DOWNPOUR POTS BUNK 0112,30 mma Meldons, Seal Fasts, Maroons and Riversides Battle to Tie. r TWO GAMES FORFEITED Next Sunday’s Schedule Will Be Changed Because of Upsets. Two extra-inning games featured the start of the Times baseball tournament Sunday for the city independent amateur championship. The Meldons and Seal-Fasts went twelve Innings to a 4-to-4 draw and the Maroons and Riversides battled eleven innings, 2 to 2. The 6 p. m. Sunday baseball closing law forced the calling off of these hard-fought contests. Thunder showers of the early afternoon interfered with the playing of the 12:30 games and one contest scheduled for 3:30 was decided by the forfeit route when one team failed to make its appearance at the proper time. One team, the Dodgers, won an automatic forfeit when the Trojans were disqualified. Two Ties, Five Postponements Twenty-three teams remain in the big event as a result of the outcome of Sunday’s schedule. Because of two tie games resulting and five postponements, next Sunday’s program will be different than planned. It will be necessary for the teams that tied to play off their games, and the games postponed also will be played off as originally carded. The same umpires will officiate. All the other teams will rest next Sunday in order to permit the schedule to work out as originally drawn. .Diamonds on which the tie games and postponed games will be played off will be announced later. On account of this arrangement it will not be necessary for the managers to have a meeting this week. Any other details in connection with next Sunday's games will be printed j in the Times. Rain Fails to Halt Fans It was estimated that 10,000 followers of the amateur teams witnessed the nine games contested Sunday. The Maroon-Riverside battle at Riverside diamond No. 1 drew the biggest throng, about 2,500 spectators being j present. The hard rain kept many i people away from the city parks, but j neighborhood rivalry had been worked up to such a high pitch over some of ! the battles that hundreds of fans 1 risked the dampness in order to be j present for hostilities. The Maroon-Riverside clash was a 5 pitchers' battle between Kwing for the Maroons and Schmutte for the Riversides. Hits were few and strikeouts many. The game was handled by Umpire Bilger. At No. 8 diamond. Riverside, Sharp for the Meldons and Edwards for the Seal-Fasts engaged in a thrilling flinging duel, which went twelve innings to a 4-to-4 tie. Bryan saved the game for the Meldons with a onehanded catch in the ninth with a SealFast on third. The L. E. & W.-Imperial game, carded for Rhodius diamond No. 1 at 3:30 p. m., was not played and the Imperials claimed a forfeit. A review of the facts, however, would seem to indicate the L. E. & W. boys did not have a fair chance to reach the diamond in time. First the rain delayed the manager getting his players together and then a freight train at Belmont Ave. held up most of the team on the way to the diamond. The fair thing to do in this case seems to order the teams to play next Sunday.

GIVE CREDIT TO SCOUT Herr, Detroit Ivory Hunter, Said Pillette Would Deliver. One might imagine from some of the stories that Herman Pillette, pitching star of the Detroit Tigers, came to the team as a sort of accident, Just tossed in to make the deal for Sylvesher Johnson look good. Asa matter of fact the records show that Eddie Herr. Detroit scout, who made the deal last winter, rated Pillette first as an immediate help to the Tigers, holding that Johnson, while having the earmarks, was likely to come to his best later. Wanted Manager’s Job Seattle traded Red Murphy to Sacramento, it is hinted, because Murphy was peeved at not being made manager of the Seattle team. He thought he was more in line for the Job than was Jack Adams.

Woh! Golf Gets One in the Well Known Solar

Sports Editor, Times: Golf will not supplant baseball. Golf is a wonderful game, but it attracts the cake-eaters, men who have generally avoided the games that put sound sportsmanship la manhood. Sure, there are plenty of exceptions. There are more whiners in golf than any other sporf. Golfers flatter themselves on being sportsmen of the highest type. The bunk! They alibi if they miss a putt or drive. They cuss out the caddy. They blame the man that stands in the line of putt. Stand at the first tee and see and hear the inen make matches. They try to win it generally at the first tee, not always, of course. That is a species of petit larceny. If he were a pool player they would call him a “hustler.” Take the case of the MitchellDuncan exhibition—4lo paid; attendance, 800, approximately. The rest, except for a legitimate free list, ran the gantlet, slipped through the fence, took tickets of men who were in in the morning and under that disguise came in in the afternoon. Rather prominent citizens were chased over the links and made to cough up after they had run the gantlet, after the fashion of the roughnecks at the prize fights, who insist on getting in without paying. Golf won’t be the national game, because golf is a pose of too many individuals. Golf in a great game for genuine sportsmen, but it is a landing place for the counterfeit, too. Signed OBSERVER. That’s pretty strong. Now what do you th.nk? Will golf supplant baseball as the national sport? Write the Times Sports Editor.

COMMENT AND GOSSIP ON CURRENT BASEBALL TOPICS

By EDDIE ASB Baseball that gives the fans plenty of lung exercise and thrills galore was played at Washington Park Sunday. The afternoon was as warm as an asphalt heater, but the fans attending the second game of the K. C.-Indian series hardly knew it was warm. The heat went unnoticed, so splendid was ! the contest. To top the afternoon of brilliant ball off, the Indians finished ahead. 2 to 1, the winning marker going over during a rally in the final inning. Hill and Carter engaged in a pitcherers’ battle and Hill had the edge by allowing two less hits. Epectacular fielding plays were frequent. Beals Becker scored the Blues only run in the third when he hit a home run out of the park over the high right center field fence in the third inning. It was a mighty wallop and probably set a record for distance at the Tribe lot. The Indians evened up the count in their half of the third and then the game went scoreless until the ninth. In that inning Brown got a triple after one out when nis hit to right got away from Zwllling and went for three bases. Covington was walked purposely and then Seeking bored a hit through Second Baseman Hammond, scoring Brown. Carmen Hill struck out six and drove In one of the Tribe’s two runs. Included among his strike-out victims was Bnnny Brief, home-run king of the league, whom he fanned three times. In the series opener Saturday the Blues won, 8 to 6. Baird is back at third for the Indians, Yerkes has been shifted to second and Sicking to short. This com-

TOURNEYPRELIMS SHUT SI FRENCH LICK GOLF LINKS v Course Recognized as One of Country’s Best by Golfers. By Times Special FRENCH LICK, Ind., Aug. 14. Ed Hedden, starter of the Indiana State golf championship tournament, lifted the barrier this morning and off they went in the first qualifying round. A big field was ready to go, with about all the old-timers at State tournaments present and a lot of youngsters who are said to be coming. Besides, there was anew field of entrants —men drawn to the chase of the elusive golf ball who are duffers and admit it and see in this tournament a chance to have some of the fun and good fellowship that theoretically, at least, is part of golf. Players were wondering—especially the better shooters —what score would be necessary to get into the exclusive thirty-two who will enter the championship round.

NO MORE CUPS The officers of the State Golfing Association have put the kibosh on cups for the winning golfers. The trophies, costing |6OO, come in the form of useful articles. For instance. the winner of the tournament is to get a handsome gold watch. The runner-up gets a watch too. The low medalist which will be determined by the first two days of play will receive a toilet set. Generally this is pleasing to the golfers though one of them said he would rather win a cup than a Jewelry store.

Donald Ross is the arcnitect of the French Lick Course. The claim that this course is one of the greatest in America is no over statement to the golfers who are playing on it. Perfect putting greens, awful traps, somber bunkers, rolling fairways, hills and valleys, wonderful vistas, all these things make the French Lick course emphatic in excellence. But it is a man-killer. The player who is not in the best physical condition conies into the nineteenth hole, tired. The tournament is a society event as well as a sporting one. Players bring their wives and sisters. Some- j how sweethearts and chaperons drift in and there is dancing, and small talk and horseback riding and plenty of amusements besides the golf play. Scores have not been as good as they should be. But this course is three or four strokes harder than the home courses of the players.

Left-Handed Golfers Will Put on Event There has been an event arranged for southpaw* In the State golf meet standing in golf. There are those who hit from the left side of the plate, as the baseball writers say, but lefthanded swattei-s are not encouraged by most of the Indiana professionals. President Young of the association is % crack and he hits left-handed. So does Sol Meyer and Kelly of Indianapolis. O’Neal of CrawfordsvUle, more or less of a veteran in Indiana golf, socks them from the left side. An event has been arranged among those four for themselves and such others who may play left-handed. They will put up their own trophy and play for It, accord *ng tc the conditions to be announced by President Young. DANFORTH EXPLAINS CASE Denies "Doctoring Ball as He leaves St. Louis for a Minor Team. ST. LOUIS, Aug. 14.—Dave Danforth, Brown pitcher, has left the city In a huff. The Brown management announced the former St. Louis pitcher would be turned over to some minor league under option. Danforth’s release came after his suspension on charge of "doctoring” the ball. Dave, in leaving the city, was loud in his denial of “doctoring” the ball. "I rubbed the ball with my bare hands," the twlrler explained. *’l have never rubbed dirt on the ball or loaded the seams.” “Y” Indoor Ball Team Wins. The fast Y. M. C. A. indoor baseball team defeated School 48 playground team at the “Y" Saturday night, 25 to 12. The ”Y” team held the lead throughout the game.
