Stirrin 7 If the DOPE [By VEDDERGARD
T ER M I NATION and "heart” are characteristics that count in the sport world. There is a little fellow on the Indianapolis ball club who is a valuable member of the team. But who would have thought this spring that Elmer Yoter would ever be much use to the Indians. Nobody but Elmer, himself. He is a vastly improved diamond performer. He is fast, stands up to the bat well) and is getting better in the field. His spirit and determina,tion, more than anything else, have been his chief assets. Why is it, may we ask, that the little fellows so often have more of the fire of ambition, more of their share of determination and "guts” than those whom nature has smiled on with greater physical advantages? It is the same In most all lines of sport., The fiery little quarterback is never through fighting, and the midget basketball forward (has an over-abundance of vim, vigor and vitality. L idaybe it's the law of compensation functioning. Maybe, Mother Nature, in a compassionate mood, makes up in spirit what is lacking i in stature. 1 - THE BOARD TODAY P ■I That taut rate at Latonla ha* been Ft renting us mighty nice.

MacCrea, business manager or tne Prest-O-Lite baseball team, that made such a fine showing in the national class AA tourney at Detroit, received a letter this morning from the president of the First National Bank of iiei.oit. The team representing the bank was the tournament winner. It was defeated once by the Presto Club, but finally won out. The letter is as follows:
Preßt-O-LHe Company, E T " r, ianapolia. Indiana. 1 tie men: . wish to congratulate you upon baseball team which represented ir company in the recent games of Industrial League held in Detroit last week. No team, I am told, displayed better sportsmanship than you team —acceptin'; all breaks without argument, putt ng up a strong fighting game to tpe finish and leaving the field in good humor. We think it is good business to encourage contests of this nature, and the men who fight upon the field are better workers for the institution they represent, and I would be glad to have you express to Manager Plummer and his ball players the high esteem In which we hold them. Very truly yours, WM. J. GRAY, President. * • • la tin- majors the second place positions are cinched. How different in the An erican Association! The last game on Sunday may be the deciding contest.

It isn’t going anywhere, and it can’t get any lower. • * * mODAY St. Louis is staging a comeback In the horse racing game after some twenty years of inactivity. In the old days the Missouri city was regarded as one of the best racing centers In the country. The old fairground track was tht scene of many thrilling races, with huge crowds in attendance. St. Louis and vicinity apparently has not lost its interest in the "sport of kings,” although it has not had a track. The opening today at Fail-mount Park is being ■p-tched with interest. Some are Predicting that at least 25,000 will be in attendance at the opening program. The new course is about eleven miles from the central part of St. Louis, near Collinsville, 111. The present meeting is scheduled for thirty-one days. Post time is 2 p. m., Indianapolis time. • • Today is the day Notre Dame is going to get; beat.

‘WALTER, THE CALM’ AND ‘WILD BILL’ MEET FOR GOLF TITLE
LOCALS VICTORS O N GR I D Technical in Splendid Victory Over Steele High School of Dayton. Indianapolis high schools, Tech and Shortridge, did themselves proud Friday in two games played here. Technical surprised by its great showing against Steele High of Dayton, Ohio. The Green and White eleven got six points in the first quarter and then stubbornly, and even brilliantly, resisted all efforts of the Ohio team to cross the goal line.

Hagen Defends National Crown in Battle With Mehlhorn at Olympia Fields Tourney. I By Edward 0. Derr United Press Stalt Correspondent OLYMPIA FIELDS COUNTRY CLUB, CHICAGO, Sept. 26. —“Walter the Calm” and “Wild Bill” met for the professional golf championship of the United States today. It was Walter Hagen, defending champion, cool, unruffled, master of ever situation and Bill Mehlhorn, known as “Wild Bill” because of his erratic golf, his mixture of brilliance and dub shots, that survived Friday’s semi-final round and crossed decks today for the P. G. A. championship.
Hagen, who registers Pasadena, Fla., as his home and has expressed a desire to return to his real estate business this winter wi another title behind his name, was the favirite because of the consistent game he is playing. Mehlhorn, however, has a host of local boosters who pointed to the flashy game the Chicago pro played Friday. Hagen countered little trouble in beating Harry Cooper of Dallas. Texas, in Friday's match. He won. 3 and 1, without extending himself except on the outgoing nine holes in the afternoon, *vhen he shot par golf. His game was just as good,

FINE DEFENSE IS BIG FEATURE OF SENATORS Infield One of Best in History—Pirates Boast of Prowess of Wright and Traynor. By Henry L. Farrell United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Sept. 26.—Washington and Pittsburgh in the world’s series this year, if they play their customary game, should provide a lot of figures to prove the relative merits of a smashing attack against a stone-wall defense. The champion Senators have a number of good hitters, but they are noted principally for an almost invincible barrier of defense that separates the infield from the outfield.
The Pirates, with slight regulars hitting- over .300, have the heaviest attack in baseball, and they have the fastest and most daring base-runners in the major leagues. Those inclined to back their judgment with cash have the problem of deciding whether the Washington infield will be able to stand up In front of such a smashing offense. Critic* Differ Interest in sporting events is developed by a diversity of opinion, and there has been no world’s series in the last six years that has brought about so many differences in Judgement among baseball men who are qualified to speak with authority. The Washington infield, according •to Billy Evar.s, veteran American League umpire and sport writer, is the greatest he has seen in twenty years of intimate association with baseball. “I have worked with that famous Athletic infield—Baker, Barry, Collins and Mclnnis; I have seen that renowned combination of the Cubs — Steinfeldt, Tinker, Evers and Chance, but I never have seen defense to perfection like Bluege, Peckinpaugh. Harris and Judge,” Evans said a few days ago. Many Double Plays The Senators practically won the 1924 pennant and the world’s series on the brilliance of the infield and their uncanny ability to make double plays. Harris was fortunate in having one of baseball's greatest shortstops at his right and he, of course, had the natural ability to work with him and they made their double-play defense a study and developed it to an art. The Importance of a double-play combination was emphasized recently by a star member of the New York Giants. “We lost the National League pennant this year,” he told the writer, “because we were the champion dou-ble-play team of the league. We hit into more double plays and made less double plays than any contending team in the league.” Arthur Nfhf’ Opinion Because of the ferocity of their attach and their speed on the base*, the Pirates are renowned more for their offense than their defense among casual fans. The world s series may reveal, however, that the Pirate* defense ha* been overlooked while bats were ringing base hits and when fleet runners were turning singles into doubles. The opinion of Arthur Nehf. star pitcher for the Giants, a college man. and one qf the most beloved players in baseball mav carry some weight. "I have had intimate experience with the Washington defense." he said, “and I know that it is a great infield but the Pirates also nave a great infield. It is foolish to try to get a hit between Wright nd Travnor. and Wright is so good going to his left that he blocks anything that

The new grid team of Notre Dame faced its first t*3t of 1925 on the home field today, taking on the Baylor University Bears of Waco, Texas. Knute Itockne, star coach and master strategist, has an almost entirely new team, untested in contest and unknown as to ability. The famous "Four Horsemen ’ and their running mates of last year have graduated, leaving nothing but last year's reserves and a good-looking freshman squad to uphold the glory of N. D. Defeat has been forecast for the "Irish” In today's game, but students of the gridiron sport know that Notre Dame never puts a poor team on the field, and although the locals were outweighed, they were expected to give the southerners a run.

effort to run his string of victories to twenty-five. Burwell downed the Columbus Senators in the series opener Friday, 9 to 2, when the Indians came out of a batting slump and staged a wild rally in the eighth that pro duced seven runs. Leverette, Senator right-hander, was the victim. As the Indians won Friday the St. Paul Saints lost to Milwaukee and the Bushman went into second place by one-half game. Burwell hurled his twenty-fourth victory of the year Friday and he probably will be the unanimous choice of A. A. sport writers as the league's best pitcher. He has lost eight games. He defeated the champion Ijouisville Colonels five times out of six starts, his only defeat by Louisville being a 1 to 0 fray. He shut out the Colonels three times.
