Thurston and Burwell Slated for Box Duty in First Clash—2s Players With- Big League Squad. By Eddie Ash All out for the old ball game! Indianapolis fans today were to get their first glimpse of Ownie Bush’s 1925 Indians in action when the “home boys” tangled with Eddie Collins’ Chicago White Sox at Washington Park at 3 o’clock. Weather early in the day was promising and the bright sun was expected to dry out the playing field and “cook’’ it just right for the athletes-
Burwell, Hill and Henry were in line for Tribe box duty today, and Thurston and Faber were on the Sox slate to do some flinging. Manager Collins said he might use Thurston all the way, but he was . n doubt about this move at noon. Twenty-Five in Squad Collins brought all his regulars to town, and he has twenty-five athletes In the party. He said he would start Grabowski behind the bat today. and probably finish with the renowned Ray Schalk. The Sox

The team trained at Shreveport and has be-n barnstorming north in easy stages. Sox and Indians will battle today and Sunday, and If the weather stays clear the old W. Washington St. plant Is expected to show some high attendance figures. The time of the fracas Sunday will be 3 o’clock, the same as the struggle today. The Indians have won ten exhibition contests, tied two and lost four, and they feel fit to get at least an even break with the big leaguers. Regular I.ine-up The Sox open their season in Detroit Tuesday and the Indians open theirs here the same day. Manager Bush of the Hoosiers probably will use this afternoon’s line-up against the K. C. Blues in the A. A. lidlifter. The Sox were rained out of an exhibition game at Terre Haute Friday and the Indians were rained out of practice here, but both managers feel confident their athletes are in proper condition to exert themselves over the week-end. The Indians will take a light practice Monday as the final preparation for the grand opening Tuesday.
Satisfied With Champs
By STANLEY HARRIS (Manager of Washington Senators) With a better balanced team “Than the one with which we won the world’s championship last year, I am perfectly satisfied with the Washington Senators. I do not want to say that we are going to win another pennant, because there Is terrifllc opposition, but I will say the Senators will be In there fighting all the time. I notice that few of the experts are giving us a chance,' and I feel that such an opinion will help us, because it will make us play ah the harder. In Reuther, Gregg end Coveleskle we have three smart and experienced pitchers, in addition to the pitchers we had last year. I believe we have a fine staff. Our reserve strength Is better and we have a greatly improved team. We did not have any the worst of the breaks last season, so if they do go against us this season we are fixed better to meet them.

Prescribed by Bob MacDonald 1 |NE of the greatest faults, and [J i one of the most common, in I putting is a player’s tendency to hit the ball too easily.

HEYDLER ADMITS GIANTS HOLD PENNANT EDGE National Prexy Has Hunch, However, That Pirates and Dodgers Will Give McGraw Serious Competition. By Henry L. Farrell United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, April 11.—“N ew York is being picked generally to win another championship,” John A. Heydler, president of the National League, said today. “The Giants have a strpng club and perhaps they deserve to be picked as the favorite, but I think there will be strong opposition and in a tight race most anything can happen,” Heydler added.
“New York's chances for another record In winning five consecutive championships depend largely upon the ability of the pitching staff to hold up through a long, hard season. The team otherwise Is strong and well fortified. “Brooklyn, depends upon strong pitching to repeat last year's performance in chasing the champions to the wire. The loss of Bill Doak, who pitched so well for the club last year, will handicap the team, but Vance and Grimes are experienced pitchers who can stand much work. ’’The Pittsburgh club Is still a threat.
