GRIFFITH WATCHES HIS CLUB LOSE TO INDIANS Deposed Manager of Washington Beats Old Team —Jess Petty Goes Full Route — Cleveland on Card Next, By EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor PLANT CITY, Fla., March 26.—Ownie Bush, the happiest baseball manager in Florida, was scheduled to pilot his Indians to Lakeland today and match them with Tris Speaker’s Cleveland Americans. Bush was all smiles after his Hoosiers trimmed, the Washington Americans here Tuesday, 7 to 4, because that tvajs the one game of the many spring training exhibitions he desired to win. ~

The Tribesmen bowled over the Washington outfit right before the eyes of Clarke Griffith, the club owner who released Bush last fall without giving the midget pilot a satisfactory explanation for the demotion. Bush is on friendly terms with- all the Washington players, but he is sour on Griffith and he took keen delight in the victory of Tuesday. Prominents Present Baseball prominents from other Florida camps were on hand for the Indianapolis-Washington scrap because they had a hunch it was -going to be a struggle worth watching and Bush received plenty of warm hand shakes after the skirmish was finished. Jess Petty went the full route on the Tribe mound and allowed only six hits. The Indians collected ten safeties off the three Washington hurlers, Marberry, McGraw r and Speece. Petty was in good form and struck out five. Errors figured in twu Washington runs. Bush planned to use Smith and Hill in the box against Cleveland at Lakelane today with Dixon and Miller dividing the work behind the bat. Schmandt was slated to return to the first base job. Indian Notes The Indians' victory over Washington was the Tribe's fourth straight win in battles with major league clubs. Eddie Brown poled three singles in four trips to the plate Tuesday. He is the town hero. Washingon newspaper men said Brown was worth a big league job regardless of h.is weak throwing arm. Smith was slated to relieve Petty the last three Innings, but the Tribe southpaw asked Bush to permit him Go remain and Bush gladly granted the request. Klrke was used at first base Tuesday and got a double In four times at bat. Hodapp and Campbell are finding big league pitchers hard to solve. Buck Harris, new Washington manager, made a costly wild throw in Tuesday's game, but he fielded his position in fine styles Gets Medal Wayne Wiliams, captain of the West Washington Street Piratae. received the medal for the best sportstrian- . ship shown in the <7 ilari(>n County arnateur basketball tourP narnftnt - Wayne L plays back guard.

Seymour Baseball Opening By Times Special SEYMOUR, Ind., March 26.—The basebalj season in Seymour will open May 4 with a game here between the Seymour Reds and the Keystones of Indianapolis. At a meeting of the Seymour Athletic Association Herman Chambers was re-elected president and Howard Daringer manager.

Times Baseball Problem By BIXiLY EVANS TAKE nothing for granted in baseball. If you doubt that statement just glance over the following situation: It is the last half of the ninth inning and the home team is trailing by the score of 5 to 3. Then things started to happen. Three times during the inning it seemed as if th.e home team had put over the three runs required to win the ball game. As many times the crowd rose to its feet, gave the mighty shout of victory, then to its great dismay something had happened which erased the niuch-needed runs. Perhaps half the crowd left the park believing the home team had scored a 6 to 5 victory. During the course of the inning not a basehit was actually made by the team at bat. / Neither did the team in the field make a fielding error, nor did the pitcher give a base on balls. Despite this the home team appeared to have won the game on three different occasions, but didn’t. Six men were used by the home team to complete this unusual inning. Aside from the three outs necessary to complete the last half of the ninth, three other outs were apparently made. Even the umpire playg'J " Dart in the confusion that naturally resulted by sending .. etayer to the elubhouse. How did it all happen 1 (Sen<l in your answers at once u* Billy Evan* Contest Editor. Two season baseball passes to Washington Park, given by The Times, are the reward for the two best answers, and ten admissions to the opening Indian game also will be awarded for the next best answers.)

STRAIGHT DOPE BENNY ON THE RADIO (The Great Sport Oracle Has Speech to Make on the Subject of One L. Firpo) 1 IT. PETERSBURG, Fla., March 26.—We11, I suppose you wide-eared I ij I listeners read in the papers that the good Sen or Firpo was going to * I turn his manly shoulders to the prize ring and quit forever because the citizens just won’t stop idolizing him. * Firpo used to be one of the best bottle washers In South America and in that capacity was closer to the blue-blooded aristocracy of his community than you’d ever guess, provided you are a terrible guesser. This Chesterfieidian gentleman, who eats raw meat and sleeps on the floor and hangs his coat on the chandelier, finds his finer sensibilities in revolt against the notoriety that his skill as a fighter brings. • • * * mT wasn’t until recently that Firpo became rich enough to recognize the existence of sensibilitfes in his make-up. When he first came to this country and took up lodging in the basement of a Newark (N. J.) shop he probably imagined sensibilities were something to be taken In pink capsules at hourly intervals, if at all. And one of his bitterest complaints at the time was that the newspaper boys wouldn’t give him a tumble. Notoriety! Why, that egg was willing to do a nose-dive off the Woolworth spire to get it. • • * • SHE main trouble with the distinguished senor is that he has been persuaded to accept himself too seriously. As fist slingers go, he is a fair species of the breed, but unlike some of the others, Dempsey, for example, he hasn’t been able to keep his spacious dogs on the ground. Firpo would have got along much better with himself and everybody else if he hired a guy to constantly remind him, “Why, I knew you when you were a bottle washer.”
