SiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniMiiniiiiH TIRRIN 7 the DOPE By VEDDER GARD
Welcome, Colonels! The Colonels coine to our town A headin' th< A. A. We ran not drug 'em far down, But can thump ’em ev’ry day. They’ll wish they never hit town And be glad to get away. Treat 'em i >urh's the idea; This isn’t K. C. here. The Tribe has always beat them Now’s no time for foolish fear. The Injuns will mistreat them While the fans look on and cheer. It’s true they hit and field, too— McCarthy has a club. % But so lias Bush an outfit That can give them all a rub. The local fans don’t doubt it. And the word they use is DRUB. • * * [ "1 T has been some time since there has been such a. runI * I away race in the Association as put across by -the Kentucky boys. The Colonels are simply romping home with no signs of a let-up. Their minds already ai on the “little world series’’ to s.\rt at Louisville on Sept. 30 with the International League winners. Baltimore looks as though it was “in” for the sev. ath straight time, and very probab. will furn!sh the opposition for the A. A. champs. Louisville upset the dope and defeated Baltimore in 1921. The eastern city has been putting out alibi after alibi ever since. Manager Dunn of the Orioles had one of the best, outfits he ever owned that year, but Louisville handed him a surprise package. Max Bishop, second basemen with the Athletics now, was out of the game and Jack Bentley, now with the Giants, complained of a sore arm and could not pitch. That’s the alibi. Kansas City and St. Paul clul>s have beaten the Orioles in postseason series. Baltimore also defeated the Saints twice. Last season St. Paul won after ten games had been played and every one had forgotten about the series. It was a flve-out-'of-nine affair. (Those magnates surely despise a dollar.) Each team won four and one game was tied. The Saints copped the tenth game. This year the series looks better and will draw more attention, as it will bt played before the world’s series. The International season doses Sept. 20 and the Association on Sept. 27. The big leagues play until Oct. 4. * * * 6 o : ACROSS THE BOARD TODAY : o o A winner ami a second on Frida? Increased the bank roll. Boon Companion came down In front and tlueen Clara was second. The *SO win and SSO place □lay on Boon Companion made $45. The price was short—only 05 cents or. the dollar to win and 25 cents on the dollar to place. The SIO across-the-board olny on Qneen Clara brought bock only #3l beflf.uso of short odds. It was a winning of sl. The bank roll Is now at $113.50. Todav wo will try a #2O win-place and-show warn- on our old friend SHAMPOO, which has given us several trims despite protests. He goes in the first at Coney. In tie seventh we will try BROKEN TOY once more—slo, win, plaea and show. • * • mOE M'CARTHY, manager of Louisville, who is mentioned persistently as a possible manager of the Chicago Cubs next season, is likely to think he is in the big show playing Pittsburgh if the Indians step out as they hope to. Yes, sah! We wish Joe all the luck in tha world, except here in Indianapolis. He deserves a chance as a big league manager, and we sincerely believe he’d make good if given the opportunity. * • • The Colonels have the penmmt cinched but they didn’t get that way by playing the Indianapolis club. The leaders have a percentage of .674 wiiieh means winning two-t birds of their games. Theft- average against the Tribe is .400, nine games lost out of fifteen played. ** * t mHAT fellow who told us t.he other night he could smell the rain In the offing n.ust have had a good nose and just had a large drink—of water. It’s raining somewhere in this land—and somewhere the cool breezes blow. But what good does that do us poor Hooslers? If the weatherman spoils that Louisville series and Grand Circuit race program we’ll move to Florida. * * * , v r 7 |E HAVE a great idea for yy anew decorative scheme ... hi front of the entrance to Washington Park. We suggest the club officials obtain those two wooden Indians that stand In front of an E. Washington St. cigar store and arrange them in a reclining attitude. Then get two busts of Umpire Finneran and President Hickey of the A. A., place them in a threatening attitude just above the Indians, and give them the tomahawks. These’s a design worthy of a great sculptor. * • • There are different kinds of hugs. There is the well known affectionate one. But there is also the wrestlers’ or bear hug which is hard on the bones. Hug of the Yanks, at present, is bearing down on the Babe. 5,000 of Ruth s bones are in danger, if not already gone beyond repair. * * * ,*> . • We see where the Heat Treat baseball team is going to meat the Polar Ice out It.

TWO GEORGIA PEACHES STRUGGLE FOR AMATEUR GOLF TITLE
MACKS IN RACE, SO THEY SAY Athletics Refuse to Concede Pennant—Open Series With Yankees. By Henry L. Farrell United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. Sept. s.—Six full lengths behind the Washington Senators the faltering Philadelphia Athletics got back into the harness today and renewed what looks like a hopeless chase for the American League pennant. After a rest of two days, In which they havt been trying to forget their sad experience in Washington, the Philadelphia youngsters were to meet the New York Yankees in the first of a two-game series. Despite the loss of their last eight games and their failure to win more than two games in their last fifteen, the Athletics still feel they have a chance for the pennant. Connie Mack, of course, will not admit now that Washington has the pennant cinched. On the contrary, it is apparent that he feels the race Is not over and that his team will get going. The Yankees have been easy for i he Athletics this year, as they have won nine out of their twelve games, but they may find the New York team harder in this series, as Miller Huggins will drive the team at full to avoid any claim from Washington. that he was making it easy for the Athletics. The winning streak of the Pittsburgh Pirates, which had been extended to nine games, was broken Friday by the Cardinals, and the Giants gained a full game by beating the Phillies, but the Pirates still have a lead of eight games and* the race is Just about over. HUGE CROWD Tuesday Boxing Show Stirs Interest Over State. State Fair visitors with a flare for boxing evidently are Intending to put the Ft. Harrison arena on their shopping list, to judge from the number of out-of-town orders for seats being received by Lieutenant Porter for Tuesday night’s all-star biffing party. Anderson fans aplenty will be on hand to root for their favorite son. Louie Lavelle. when he tackles tough Tony Ross of Pittsburgh And from the way the supply of reserved tickets Is melting away, every fistic fan in Indianapolis will be there particularly interested in the Wig-gins-Risko battle. Lieutenant Porter calls attention to the 3,700 bleacher seats. These seats are not reserved and it is a case of first-come-first-served in the matter of preferred locations.

CIRCUIT RACING MONDAY Harness Fans Sit and Take Notice as Classy Program Starts. Indianapolis will get its first taste of Grand Circuit racing for many years when the thoroughbreds step gingerly out on the State fair ground track on the Labor day program Monday. Four events are on the card—the three-year-old pace, the 2:04 trot (Pluto Water stake!, the 2:14 pace, and the 2:10 trot (L. S. Ayres and Company stake). The 2:04 trot brings out a field of twelve high-class performers. Ten have done 2:04 or better. which gives the event real class. Favonian, crack Memphis stallion, if he Is right, will give the other equine stars a tussle for the purse. The $5,000 Ayres’ stake is the feature trotting event of the local Grand Circuit meeting. Trumpet, Murphy's five-year-old gelding, will be one of the horses watched closely. Trumpet won the $25,000 trotting derby at Aurora. The racer is one of the real stars of the harness world, and combined with the experience of Tommy Murphy in the sulky, probably will be a favorite. Twenty ; nlne are In the list of egilibles in this event. The three-year-old pace has small entry. The 2:14 pace has sixteen named.
LARGE GRID TURN-OUT EXPECTED AT INDIANA Bill Ingram to Start Practice Drive Sept. 15 —Material Looks Fair Enough This Fall. Bu Unite 1 Press BLOOMINGTON, Ind.. Sept. 5. —In less than two weeks’ time the thud of the football will be heard again on historic old Jordan field at Indiana University. The first, official practice will start Tuesday, Sept. 15, with “Navy Bill" Ingram, head coach, in charge.
Ingram will be assisted by "Rip” Miller, former Notre Dame star; "Stew” Butler, former captain of the Crimson, and Clevenger and Hays. Despite the fact graduation inflicted heavy wounds on the Indiana grid machine, the material left at hand seems to be sufficient to make followers of the "Scrappin' Hoosiers” optimistic. .Among the Leaders A few of the men who are expected to make a name for Indiana in grid circles this year are Capt. Harry Marks, Salmi, Stevens, the Fisher brothers, Hoblick, Winston and Sibley. Marks spent the summer hardening up his muscles in a railroad yard. This abbreviated list gives an idea of the kind of warriors that will be on hand to “fight for the glory of old I. U.” when the squad assembles. It Is expected that the first official call for candidates will bring out at least 80 candidatesTliree Fields There will be two regular practice fields in addition to the new memorial stadium where football battles will be fought with opposing teams. The formal dedication of the new university bowl will take place when the curtain Is rung down In the season’s final contest with Purdue, the ancient rival of Indiana, on Nov. 21. A State wide committee of alumni will assist in the dedication, which is to be made the biggest gala event ever held here under the direction of the Indiana Athletic Association.

Dutch Bauman will drive his same apple green race cart with which he won first In the fifty and second in the twenty-five mile event Aug. 1. Wilcox, who has not been seen on the local track this year, will drive the car with which he has been cleaning up on other tracks. He and Bauman form the E. R. Special team, but that won’t mean they will play the “you go first my dear Gaston” stunt. While the two team mates are battling against each other they will have to keep weather eyes open for Louis Schneider and Hilton Crouch, both of whom are dangerous at all times. A number, of other wellknown pilots will compete also. There will be three races Monday, a five-mile special match race, a twenty-mile event and a twenty-five mile contest.
