Curtain Falls in A. A. Sunday — N.Y. Yankees Throw Fear Into Washington
r TRIBE HOPES FADE OUT AS RACE NEARS FINISH Only Chinaman's Chance Left Now for Indians to Win or Tie for Pennant Millers Today, By Times Special MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 27.—With their pennant hopes just about smothered, the Indians of Indianapolis were here today to open a three-garae series with Mike Kelley’s Millers. A single contest this afternoon and a double bill Sunday will close the season. In the meantime, the Louisville Colonels will be engaging the leading Saints in two double headers.
Asa result of knocking the Hoosiers off, 3 to 2, in St. Paul, Friday, the Apostles increased their pennant edge to two games and a half, and only by a terrific upset of calculations can Nick Allen’s team be prevented from annexing the A.A. flag of 1924. The American Association season winds up Sunday, and after that there won't be any more struggles, unless the Indians get a lucky break and gain a tie with the Saint3 That Slender Thread Jess Petty was slated to face the Millers here this afternoon in an effort to keep the Tribe clinging to the slender pennant thread, and also in an effort to win his thirtieth game of the season, k The A. A. race has been a furious Rattle all the way with Saints, Indians and Colonels staging a three®lub conflict. Unfortunately!- the Indians were crippled when they met the Saints in the important series while Allen’s team of veterans was in the best physical shape of the year. Bill Burwell went in against Tony vFaeth at St. Paul Friday and made a game effort to win, but the fifth inning ruined him. Morse singled. Dixon filed out. Faeth struck out and then Christensen heat out an infield hit. Burwell grew shaky for the moment and hit Boone, filling the bases. With the count two and two Neun took a mighty punch at the ball and hit for a triple to deep center, scoring three runs. Faeth Held ’Em The cluster of markers proved sufficient. Faeth held the Indians off. The Tribesmen scored in the third and fourth innings and obtained as many hits as the Saints, but two runs were all they could register. Faeth, with his puzzling curve, was too much for the Hoosiers in the big .series. The five games drew large attendance, S.OOO fans being present Friday. The Saints won four out of the five struggles. The Indians got two men on in the ninth Friday as their final effort, but the crippled Rehg, batting for Burwell. lifted a fly to Christensen and the Hoosier fire was extinguished. The Indians were given good pitching during the St. Paul series. j>ut. erratic .work in the field and ■oor base running combined to ruin Rieir chances. The Saints were Lteady in the field in most of the Bytht places. still was in the running B- second place this morning, but odds are "osir.g oir ner-up position. All indications point to the three rivals finishing as they were previous to today's battles — St. Paul, first: Indianapolis, second; Louisville, Third.

LAJOIE GETS HIS 3.000 TH HIT In the fifth inning of the New York-Cleveland game at Cleveland Sept. 27, 1914, Napoleon Lajoie made a two-base hit. At once the game was stopped and the ball taken to second base, where Lajoie received it as a gift and memento. The reason for all this was that this twobagger was Napoleon Lajoie’s 3000th safety in major league play. The only men ever to hit 3,000 safeties were Anson, Lajoie, Wagner and Cobb. This was the score of Larry’s great day:

TECH SNAGS PASS TO BEAT ELWOOO Local High School Eleven Scores in Last Quarter, Technical High School of Indianapolis and Elwood High School football teams, each ranking with the best throughout the State, staged an early season battle at the Tech field Friday which was not decided until the final quarter. Technical winning, 7-0, with a forward pass. Babcock to Byrkett. Babcock kicked the extra point. The teams were evenly matched until after the third quarter, when the Green . and White reserve strength began to tell upon the plucky Elwood team. Both elevens were well coached in the use of the forward pass, but Tech appeared to have the edge. Elwood showed to better advantage on end runs, mostly through the work of Jones, Elwood half back, who consistently broke away for good gains, one of which was a forty-yard run. Virgil. Elwood left end, was a constant menace to the Tech back field. Byrkett. Harrell and Babcock showed well for the local team in the back field, while Wilson, Tech negro tackle, appeared in almost every play.
INDIANA CENTRAL COACH HAS HUGE TASK AHEAD Small Enrollment at Local College Makes Football Material Scarce —First Year of Grid Sport. Bv DICK MILLER Coach J. W. George, at Indiana Central College located at University Heights, five miles south of Indianapolis, has a task confronting him to develop a football team. It is the first grid team in the school’s history. The school has 260 students, of whom 110 are boys. Os these the first call for football brought, out forty-five.
George, who is a former Otterbein nine-letter man, is showing that he knows the pigskin game from A-Z. Most of the squrtd knew little of football before they came into school. Their actions on the field and in scrimmage disclosed they are learning rapidly. Four men are trying for the end positions. Albright, 170; Bilby, 160; Barnes, 160; and Abrogast, 150, are the flank candidates. The !\ght displayed by Barnes will make him valuable. Tackle Candidates Five men, none of them big, but possessed with plenty of fight are set aside as tackle candidates. Which one is best is hard to tell. Turner, Adams, Catt, Coke and Light are out. Practice scrimmage showed the three first named apparently to be best. Coke, while green, has oceans of fight and he in time may be made into a guard or center. Five men are prospective guards. Emmert, 210, and Leach 170, look best with C'arno, Horn and Leader, all lighter, following behind. Butler, 160, and Todd, the same weight, are at center, but in all probability one of the heavier line candidates will be moved in to that position. Trumble, a little slip of a fellow weighing 130 pounds, is running the prospective tacklers wild trying to catch him, and is giving Pen and Good, heavier men a battle fo** the quarter back position. Backs Are Scarce Baekfield material is scarce. Set tie. about the best bet for a half back place, is laid up with an injured shoulder. Bright, 155, and Vance, 145, are about the next best candfdates, with Beam and Armentrout as reserves. Klinger, 175, and Mendenhall, about ihe same weight, are battling each other for the full back position. Klinger will rip off a few yards against any opposition. Today the team opened the season at Franklin. A low score will mean as much as victory to George. Oct. 4 will see the Indiana State School for Deaf at Central College; Oct. 11

HUGGINS' TEAM CREEPS WITHIN GAME OF RIVALS Fierce Battle Continues for Top Honors in American League—Giants in Strong Position in National. By HENRY L. FARRELL United Press Staff Correspondent - NEW YORK, Sept. 27.—One down behind the speeding Washington Senators and with only three games to go, the New York Yankees are almost hack in the pennant race. While their chances aren’t any too promising, they are improved by at least one game.
While Alec Ferguson, a Yankee cast-off, was holding the Senators Friday and giving the Red Sox a 2-to-t victory, the Yankees were playing championship ball that could have been displayed to greater advantage recently in Detroit. The Yankees heat the Athletics, 7 to 1, and closed up the pennant gap by one full game. * Dugan Crippled Joe Dugan was hurt, but his loss will not be fatal, because Mike McNally can play the bag for a few days almost as well as Dugan. With a leaa of only one game the Senators now have to win their three remaining games to cinch the American League pennant. The two contending teams have three games each to play. If the Senators win all their remaining games and the Yanks are not beaten in Philadelphia the pennant will go to Washington by one full game. Ts the Senators lose one more game in Boston and the Yanks win three more, the two teams will finish in a tie and they will have to play it off in three extra games. Yanks’ Hope Slight If the Senators lose two more games to the Red Sox and the Yafiks win three from the Athletics, the Yanks will take the pennant. After a day of rest Friday, the National League rivals were to get back at it today. The Giants start a three-game series with the floundering Phillies and the Brooklyn Robins have a two-game date with the Boston Braves. The Giants can cinch the pennant by winning two of their remaining games. It is likely that they will do that.

Political Advertisement. 500 Per Cent The State Tax Board has done more than its share toward increasing the expenses of running Indiana. i 1916 - - - $15,000 1924 - - - $75,250 The above are the amounts that the legislature appropriated to the Tax Board for its expenses in 1916 and 1924. There were three members of the Tax Board in 1916 and three members in 1924, but it takes five times as much money for the Tax; Board to function under the present Republican administration $s it did under a Democratic administration. It costs five times as much for Republicans to make taxes high in 1924 as it did for Democrats to keep taxes low in 1916. Have the expenses of running your business, your farm or your family increased five times in the last eight years? (Published by Authority of Democratic State Committee, Walter S. Chambers, Chairman)
