S^nnnininnnnniiiiiinniniiniinnnuiniiiiniiinninnininnflnninißißfl TIRRINI the DOPE By VEDDER GARD ET is encouraging- to not© the increased activity in the high schools in regard to track athletics. Numerous county meets are being 'staged and relay carnivals are being sponsored. It takes time to work up the relay idea. Emerson of Gary was one of the first Hoosier schools to follow the example of the big college tourneys. Three such meets were held last year arid five are on the prdgram this season. On Saturday Technical 11. S. of this city has an invitational affair which, from the interest taken by other schools, seems an assured success. One hundred and seventy-seven entries have been received from fourteen schools. The schools represented are Bedford, Connersville, Greenfield, Kokomo. Manual, Shortridge, Martinsville, Michigan City, Muncie, Shelbyville, Ft. Wayne South Side, Westfield and Vincennes. This entry includes a great number of the prep stars of Hoosierdom. Track is a great body builder and gets the youths out in the open. Undoubtedly fresh air is better than that found in gymnasiums. The next step is to get the .students and general public interested. The struggle for supremacy down the stretch is an inspiring sight. If you never saw a track meet, better go out to Tech field on Saturday. You might become really interested. There are other sports besides basketball.
SNY line of endeavor must have boosters to go over. Baseball is no exception. The local Elks have a baseball committee for opening day here, April 29, composed of D. Stout, chairman: W. Barrett, D. C. Condon, C. Grossart, L. Mazur, M. Maroney, C. Perrett. W. Stehlin, J. Tretton and C. Wallin. Thomas E. Hughes, exalted t-uler, had the following to say on the appointment of the committee: "ft is my earnest desire that this committee make special efforts to cooperate with all other fraternal and civic organ izations in preparing for the opening day celebration lor the season of 1920 T recently attended the opening oi the Association season in Kansas City and want to say that Ow-nic Bush and hts club show iy-al stuff and truly represent our city. They deserve the whole-hearted support of every Indianapolis citizen, and I know the Elks will want to do their part in boosting the national pastime in a way that all Indianapolis will be proud of.” That kind of stuff is not only a boost for baseball, but a boost for Indianapolis. It is a tonic for community spirit and a welding together of various interests in a common cause. Sport is the great stabilizer which promotes good feeling, takes away some of the montony of humdrum existence and renews us all mentally and physically for the daily tasks. fr-p, | lIE New York Yankees j are wielding tremendous L—-J bludgeon these days. They fjun’t know when they are beaten. Wednesday in the tlrst home game Boston got a fourrun lead in the first two innings with Ehmke pitching. That’s enough to make any elub discouraged. Hid tile Yankees hesitate when the tans gave up? Yep, they hesitated long enough to catch their breath and knocked the Be an town pitching star out of the box in the fourth frame with six big runs. * * * ppr.n WALSH ,IR.. pitching for | p A { Notre Dame against West L -1 ern State Normal of Kalamazoo, Mich., on Wednesday, allowed only four hits and struck out fourteen. He won the game, 4 to 3. Errors acocunted for two of the three runs. Did you say ‘‘What of it?” Just thought you might remember another Ed Walsh. He was a pitcher, too. Well, the Notre Dame hurler, is Big Ed's son. It’s in the blood. • t < Mauling Minneapolis Miller Maces Make Many Markers. Ask the Indians. • • * SHERE are many ups and downs in this old world. Zachary and Mogridge, thought too old even for the Washington Senators, allowed just ten hits between them Wednesday. Zachary stopped the White Sox with four hits and St. Louis won, 5 to 1. Mogridge, hurling for the Boston Nationals, beat the Phillies, 2 to 1, permitting six scattered blows. And, by the way, Johnson and Coveleskie have lost their last starts—neither finished. * * * Again we warn—look out for Louisville!
COLLEGIATE CHATTER HOFF AND HI'BOARD Speaking of specialists, where could one find a greater pair than -Charley Hoff and DeHart Hubbard? I2aeh is versatile. But both have their favorite events. Iloff knows no equal as a pole vaulter; Hubbard -..holds similar rank in the broad jump. .MoreOever, each is consistent, which cannot be overlooked in the final summary. Even at this early date Southern California looks good to repeat in the eastern intercollegiates. "Bud" Houser and Leighton Dye are back, better than ever. Edgar House in the sprints and Grumbles, low hurdles, should garner points in any •competition, hep Barnes, pole-vault-er, cleared “13 fi" a few weeks ago, making him an almost certain winner. On the advance form sheet the Trojans seem pretty sure of 20 points. And 30 points is usually enough to insure victory. Cornell, Penn, Yale and the rest have much to fear from the Cromwell combine. More so. perhaps, than a year u.gb.
BIG PARADE TO OPEN AMATEUR BASEBALL SEASON SATURDAY
BUSHMEN LOSE IN THRILLER Get More Hits, but Millers Insert Home Runs and Win Long One. Bn Times Special MINNEAPOLIS, April 22.—Second struggle of the IndianapolisMinneapolis series today. Entire city baseball wild. That was the situation following the Millers’ twelveinning victory over the Indians, Wednesday, C to 5, when home runs over the short fences ruined the Bushmen. Ned Niles, the come-back hurler, pitched superb ball for the Hoosiers until the ninth. In that inning the Indians were leading, 4 to 1, when two Millers got on base and Schultz was sent in to' hat for Catcher Byler. He responded with a home run over the left field fepce and tied the score. Duncan Connects In the twelfth the Indians scored a run and again took the lead, 5 to 4, but in the home half a local runner got on base and Pat Duncan thereupon lifted the ball over the right center field fence. Carl ’Ray. southpaw, had relieved Niles in the ninth and he was the victim of Duncan’s winning smash. An error permitted the Millers to score in the sixth. Therefore, to give Niles credit it can be said he twirled good enough ball to blank the Millers until the pinth.
Tribe Gets 15 Hits Minneapolis used two pinch hitters and Pitcher Hubbell gave way to Hollingsworth after the ninth. Indianapolis made fifteen hits to ten for the Millers, but the “breaks” were with the Kelley crew. A large crowd for a week-day viewed Wednesday's series opener and another big gathering was expected to turn out today to see the rivals battle. Sinking's error in the sixth was costly. Ho dropped an assist by Sehreiber after two out ar-1 the miscue permitted a Miller runner to score. It was hard luck. It cost the ball game. Pitcher Niles got two hits, something unusual for a hurler. The slender flinger evidently is going to make a good man for the Bushmen. Mc.Auley for the Millers and Russell for the Indians got the only stolen bases. The Milieus are hard to defeat on their home Tot. They take plenty of hatting practice and everybody aims for the short fences.

MULDOON BEHIND TEX IN TITLE BOUT PLAN Senior Commission Member Prefers Tunney * Dempsey Match Despite Attitude of Chairman Farley. By Henry Farrell Unit'd I'n hh staff Vorresvondrnt 1 NEW YORK, April 22. W ill in in Muldoon, first chairman ami senior member of tlie New York boxing commission, threatened to resign today unless his fellow eommissiouers changed their stand against a heavyweight championship light between Jack Dempsey and Gene Tunney.
Muldoon said the commission hid placed itself in a ridiculous position, and he said that underAno circumstances would he vote approval Jor a bout between Dempsey and Harry Wills. Tunney as Chat longer ■ He said he had a personal and professional preference for Tunney as the challenger, and he would not become a party to threats that Tex Rickard would be driven out of business if he matched Dempsey and Tunney. Muldoon said: “A match between Dempsey and Tunney would be more interesting than a match between Dempsey and Wills. There is no reason why Tunney should not be allowed to meet Dempsey in New York and he will be allowed to do so if I have anything to say about it. My term ex pires shortly, and rather than be a party to the action that has been threatened against Rickard, I will get out.” 1 Farley’s SI and James A. Farley, chairman of the commission, has taken a radical stand against any heavyweight championship bout in which Wills is not one of the principals. George Bower, the third member of the commission, has not expressed an opinon for publication. Farley, however. Is being supported by Col. John J. Phelan, chairman of the license committee, who says that Rickard has not beer, given a license to promote boxing this summer in the Yankee stadium. H. S. BASEBALL RESULTS (Wednesday games.)

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
'TTBrnond i imputes ifepded Is it possible for a run to score after the third out of the inning has been made.’ Ordinarily no. hut there is a certain trick situation created by bad baserunning where such a thing can happen. The bases are 01 led. two are out and there are three, balls and two strikes on the batsman. All runners start to advauee on the next pitch. The ball is high and wide, the fourth hall, entitling (lie batsman to first and all runners to advauee one base the runner on third being entitled to score. The runner from second overruns third, a snap throw from the catcher r< tires him. .making tile third out. In the meantime tlie runner from third lias not vet touched the plate. Despite this, the run counts and he can continue on to the plate after the third out. A base on balls to the batsman with the bases filled, legally scores the runner from third.
