TRIBESMEN OPEN HEA VY SERIES IN MINNEAPOLIS Pitchers Face Another Grind as Northern Jaunt Starts — Saints About Due to Take Lead. By Timex Special / MINNEAPOLIS. July B.—lndians and Millers were to oppn a long engagement here this afternoon. There is a scheduled double-header in the series and a postponed game also may be added, making six contests in four davs. It looks like another
stiff session for the flingers. Manager Bush had Eller. Fitzsimmons and Hill in shape for today's work. There has been some talk of trading Hill to Louisville, and this transaction eventually may occur. The Colonels have Joe Oeschger, former Giant, to offer, but Oeschger is very high-priced and ; the Indianapolis club is not sure it can meet his terms. He Wants a Bonus The Giants released Oeschger to Loutsville in part payment for- Wayland Dean, but the veteran refused to, join the Kentuckians unless he was given J bonus of $3,069 and also paid the same salary New York was (With A.

The Colonels balked at the terms and granted Indianapolis permission to deal with the hurler. While the Indians are here in Minneapolis, the Colonels are across the riverMn St. Paul. The Indians and Colonels are tied for the league lead and the Saints are only a step behind. Fans of this section believe St. Paul will be at the top shortly. Nick Allen's team is hard to defeat in its own yard. Fence Helps ’Em Saint players have developed an uncanny ability to send drives against the short left-field fence for doubles and fly balls over the fence for home runs. Even Leo Dixon is a home-run slugger in that park. Manager Mike Kelley of the Millers still has hopes of getting his team up in the running. His latest deal is the purchase of Pitcher George Burger, left hander, from the San FVancisco team of the Pacific Coast League. Players obtained from the White Sox in the MangumGrabowski deal will be inserted in the line-up as soon as they report. BERLENBACH HAS PUNCH Paul Forces Carpenter to Quit in the Seventh Round.

YANKS FACE REAL TASK TO RETAIN TRACK CROWN I Finns Prove Formidable Foe in World Games at Colombes Stadium —Hubbard Annexes Broad Jump, By HENRY L. FARRELL United Press Staff Correspondent COLOMBES STADIUM, PARIS. July B.—Out in front by a scant margin of eight points, America’s athletic expeditionary force fought today to retain the advantage against the track and field forees of the world.
The athletic supremacy of the United States is being challenged in this year's Olympic as never before. At the end of ihe second day (Monday) our team had lost some of the advantage it held on a similar occasion at Antwerp four years ago. Unexpected Defeat A signal defeat in the 100 metres Monday was a heavy blow, and the coaches had hoped for other points that did not materialize. D* Hart Hubbard, negro star from the University of Michigan, won the broad jump in the Olympic track and field games this afternoon, with a leap of 7.445 metres, (24 feet 6 inches.) Right on the heels of Hubbard's victory, which sent the American Hag up the pole above the score hoard and the band to playing the “Star-Spangled Banner,” Bud Houser, California giant, won the shotput for the United States. This meant another ten points and another flag raising. Xed Gourdin, former Harvard star, also a negro, was second to Huhbard in the broad jump. Hansen

Yanks Go to Front By t nited press COLOMBES STADIUM. Paris, July S.—The United States increased its lead over Finland and the fiqld by winning two first places with a liberal scattering of others, in the Olympic track and field games today. England captured a first in the only Other final event of the day. The I official standing at the end of to- I day's events was: V. S. A 99 Finland 54 England 28 Vs Sweden 14 Vs France 0 '■> H angary 7 V Switzerland 5 Norway 4 New Zealand 4 Norway, was third; Tunlos, Finland, fourth; Wihelme, Fiance, fifth, and Mclntosh, England, sixth.

Abrahams Is Cheered The outstanding feature Monday was H. M. Abraham's victory over the four Americans in L he 100 metres. The rangy Jew was cheered to the echo, although the French have a soft spot in their hearts for Charlie Paddock, and would have ukad .o see him win. The'weather was again perfect to nay for Olympic sport, with no wind, plenty of sun and a fast track. Baseball Calendar AMERICAN ASSOCIATION. W. L.

Expert Tennis 'Talks ———————————— [j, Mercer Beasley
' AN a player hit a tennis ball 1 over the nel , pens claim this "freak shot” is Impossible. However, I am able to say there are a few players among the high-ranking set capable of making shots without >pln. The halj simply floats. I will admit that in most cases the hall will revolve possibly once or twice befort it falls but it does not spin. If you will stand close to the aide service line when two players are warming up, or are beginning to piay with new balls, you will se the balls float by you with the marking showing clearly. The writer went farther than to use merely a white ball with a mark ing showing. I made a ring in black around the hall, which 1 could see plainly. The stroke that makes the floater is played with a flat racket, tilted slightly upwards, when striking the hall, which is hit just below the waist line. The chief vnjue of the floater is the deception it creates. It seems to hang in the air and thus give the ; impression that It is going out of the court.

Feature Games of the Past July 8, 1876 AN EPOCHAL DAY FOR LEFT FIELDERS In the first year of the National League, Louisville and the Mutuals played the longest game then on record—fifteen innings. Louisville’s four-run rally in the ninth tied the score, which was not thereafter broken. This game, played July 8, 1876, is notable for the fact that Fred Treacy. in left field for the Mutuals, made eleven outs, one assist and three errors, the greatest number of to*al chances ever offered to an outer gardener in the entire history of professional baseball.
