INDIANS LOSE LEAGUE LEAD AS MILLERS CONTINUE TO MAUL PITCHERS

JENTRIES STEADILY DECREASE ; Mark Master Latest Derby Casualty—Quatrain Remains Favorite. Bu Times Special LOUISVILLE, May s.—The list of Derby entries is steadily being cut down to something like tho actual number which will go to the post on May 16 at Churchill Downs. Probably about twenty will answer the call. The latest addition to the list is Mark Master, whicfi is reported to have suffered a quarter cleft in a workout. • The colt, before the accident, was figured to have a chance in the Kentucky classic. Mark Master is not positively out of the running, but has only an outside chance to be in shape. The chief casualty is Master Charlie, out because of lameness. Tho 3-year-old was a favorite in the winter hooks. Other prominent ones to be withdrawn are stimulus, Sumpter and Sunny Man. A Sunny Man died recently from P poison or an overdose of ’‘dope.” Quatrain, the winter track sensation, is the favorite at the present time. The thoroughbred appears to be working out in satisfactory manner. Almost every day sees attention focused on some eligible which runs a good race at one of the tracks. King Nadi, which had lost some prestige, regained it in a measure on Monday hy his first class performance in winning the sixth event nt Lexington on a heavy rough track. The horse went the mile in 1:40. Right now the best of the west seems to be Captain Hal and Quatrain, while the east thinks • well of Chantey and Single Foot. The running of the Preakness stakes at Pimlico next Friday will clear up some of the eastern claims. But after all one never knows what will happen until the race is run. Zev was far in the rear at the 1923 running of the Preakness and came back to win the Derby. / Butler at State Normal The Butler baseball team was at Terre Haute today, where the State Normal club was played.

DUNDEE TRIES COMEBACK AGAINST TERRIS TONIGHT Veteran of Many Battles in Last Show at Madison Square Garden —Dempsey to Witness Bout. By Heny L. Farrell United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. May s.—Johnny Dundee, one of the old men of the ring and a veteran of more battles than he ean count, will make what may be his last stand in Madison Square Garden tonight.

The former world’s featherweight champion will meet Side Terris, a spider-like youth from the east side, in the last show staged in the historic old Garden. “If I don't win, or if I have any trouble winning. I’m going to call it quits,” Dundee said today. “I’ve got enough money to keep us for the rest of our days but I think a fellow ought to work as long as he Is able to work and fighting is my work.” Terris Favorite Wise money around town is being laid at 8 to 5 that Terris, noted for his speedy work, will out-step the veteran, who was fighting fifteen years before the youngster had ever put oil a glove. Some think that Terris will win by a knockout. He has every reason to try for a quick victory because Dundee has been knocked out only once and if Terris should try and turn the stunt for the second time it would restore some of the prestige Terris lost in his last big fight when he was beaten by Sammy Mnndell. There Is Pome sentiment In the appearance of Dundee in the last fight In the Garden. He was in the main bout against Joe Welling in the show that re-opened the Garden five years ago when boxing was made legal again In New York.

Prince to See Auto Race Nobleman Makes Reservations for Memorial Day Event —Is Amateur Speed Enthusiast.

N Egyptian prince with a bent for fast automobiles, an w. ■JI amateur speed pilot himself, will attend the international 500-mile race to be held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway May 30, it was announced today after arrangements for his visit had been made through the Paris office of the Speedway. He is Prince Djelalledin, with an immense estate near Cairo, an American wife, and a town house in Paris. The prince has been an enthusiastic automobile racing fan for years. Last year he caused to be built a 300 horse power racing car with a view to teasing it into a few new world’s short distance records. This summer, after his attendance at the Indianapolis race, the prince will take his racing car to Denmark and attempt to establish records. It has been two years since any Old World nobility lias made tho long trip to.lndianapolis to witness an international race. In 1923 Prince De Cystria, of an old line French family, and Count Zborowski, a Polish nobleman who made his home on an estate near Canterbury- England. came here as members of the Bugatti team. Although it is not likely that Prince Djelalledin will make any attempt to drive In the coming 500mile race, it is likely that he will drive a car for experience during the training period before the race.

Do You Know?

By Billy Evans When is the batsman automatically out on a third strike even though the catcher does not retain possession of the ball? The hatsman is always out on a third strike regardless of whether the hall i* caught. when there Is a runner on first base and there are less than two out. Before this rule was put Into the playing- code, the haserunner was at the mercy of a smart catcher. He would drop the hall thereby forcing the runner to advance and usually make a double play. The preaent rule, with a runner on firet and lea* than two out. gives the base runner proper protection, since the bats man is automatically out and no other play is possible unless the runner or runners seek to advance at their peril on the dropped third strike. When two sxe out it i* compulsory that the third strike be caught to retire the batsman.

Millers Gain Top Perch by Slugging Way to Victory Over HenryHome Runs Feature. -,#j Bu limes Special MINNEAPOLIS, May s.—Ownie Bush’s Indians would finish in last place if they played the Millers all the time. The Minneapolis swat jinx hangs over the Iloosiers like a pall and the Tribesmen certainly will be delighted when they leave this town. The score Monday was Bto 5, with the Indians getting the five, and the Millers ousted the Tribesmen from first place in the league race.

The Indians have met the Kelleyites five times and have been defeated four times, two losses out of three starts at Indianapolis and two wallopings out of two starts here. Another struggle was carded today, and on Wednesday the series will be brought to a close. Hurray! Long Hits Frequent The Bushmen got some base hits Monday, but the Millers likewise pounded the ''apple” and extra base swats were frequent. Until the eighth inning the battle was on even terms, but in that stanza the locals rallied and slam-banged Frank Henry’s half-speed ball for three runs and victory. The "breaks” again favored the home team and one run was scored by the Millers when a ground ball socked Hank Schreiber on the Jaw and permitted a Kelleyite to score from second. Six of the eleven hits obtained off Henry were for extra bases, two home runs, a triple and three doubles. The Indians got ten hits ami two were for the circuit, Allen and Rehg putting the ball out of the lot. Chance for Even Break Manager Bush bad Fitzsimmons and Burwell ready for mound duty today and he was urging his athletes to keep plugging. He fears the boys will lose heart in the face of the Miller attack. The Indians still have a chance to get an even break out of the series here and victories in the two games remaining would put the Tribe back on top in the league standing. Hank Schreiber got three of the Indians’ ten hits Monday and Sicking and Allen each supplied two safe smacks. Failure of Christenbury, Krueger and Schmandt to connect practically cost the game. Monday’s contest was played with wintry weather prevailing. It was cold and a frigid breeze swept the park. The Loulsville-St. Paul scheduled engagement just across
