TIL D E N Battles cochet Yank Net Vet Plays French Rival Thursday—New Feminine Star. Bu United Press ST. CLOUD, France, June 1. —William Tilden will meet Henri Cochet in the semi-finals of the international hard courts tennis tournament here Thursday, Cochet eliminated Tilden in the United States national championship tournament at Forest Hills, N. Y., last year, only to be defeated in the finals, by Rene Lacoste. Tilden has defeated Lacoste this year. Anew threat to the hopes of Helen Wills to win the Wimbledon tournament later in the season was seen in the surprising defeat of Senorita D’Alva r ez, the Spanish star, by Miss E. L. Heine of South Africa, 3-6, 7-5, 7-5. Miss Wills recently ranked Miss D’Alvarez as one of the most dangerous of woman tennis players, and the unexpected form displayed by Miss Heine presented a complication for European and American woman players. —INDIAN S (Continued on Page 10) two hits, a walk, and a double steal. The single Louisville run scored in the second stanza on Rosenthal’s double and Shannon’s single. \ Yoter, Matthews and Snyder each poled two safe blows off Ernie Koob Tuesday. Bill Burwell fielded his position like a master and got six assists. He usually leads the league in this respect. The veteran uses something that makes batters hit the ball back at him. Yoter and Matthews staged the double steal in the eighth Tuesday and the former scored and Matty went on to third when Catcher Meyer pegged high to second. Matthews’ triple went to the rightfield corner and Anderson’s threebase swat went to the left-field corner. The Colonels hit the ball hard in the early innings, but not to many safe spots. Koob was wild and walked six Indians. Burwell walked two, hit and Tanned four. Koob balked B the eighth and BUrtvell and YoIrer, wh6 were on the paths, each advanced a base. Minneapolis has won ten straight games and is crowding Toledo for the top rung in the A. A. St. Paul has lost seven consecutive contests. Gearin of the Brewers walked Nicholson of Kansas City with the bases filled in the ninth Tuesday and forced the winning run over. Milwaukee has sold Pitcher Dave Danforth and Infielder Bob Muirray to New Orleans. Danforth starred last season, but has not won a game this year. Next Monday is a scheduled open date for the Indians, but it will be utilized by playing off a postponed game with the Millers at Washington Park. The Tribe will return from Toledo Sunday night.

Pittsburgh has returned Infielder Kddie Sicking, to the Indians. Eddie, Tribe captain, was on trial Mnth the Pirates and a Weak arm handicapped his efforts to stick. When Sicking signs a Tribe contract there will be anohei- club shake-up, unless Eddie is placed on the suspended list temporarily. The team roster stands at twenty now, the league player limit.

Sox and Cubs Threaten to Fight Around Top Throughout Season. PIRATES, YANKS SPEED Athletics and Reds Continue ' to Disappoint. By Henry L,. Farrell, United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, June I.—When the pennant chances of the major league baseball clubs were being rated before the season opened the two Chicago clubs were given hardly a tumble, but they are up near the top now and may he around there for the remainder of the season. The White Sox do not look as strong as the Philadelphia Athletics and the Washington Senators, but they are hustling and playing smart baseball. The Cubs haven’t as much class as the St. Lcuis Cardinals and the New York Giants, but as long as they continue to get the pitching they have enjoyed they will win a lot of games. Pirates Deliver The Pittsburgh Pirates have hit their stride and are more than living up to pre-season calculations despite some spotty pitching and the temorary loss of Ray Krerner. The St. Louis Cardinals are still getting good pitching and they are sure to have a lot to say all during the race. The Cincinnati Reds will have to get going soon If they are to get out of the second division. The breaks have been against the,club. The Giants are having trouble with spotty pitching, inferior catching and an outfield weakness. John McGraw finds It’s necessary to experiment, and experimenting is a dangerous practice during the playing season. Lindstrom Handicapped The infield appeared to be the best in the National League when the season opened, but now it is up in the air. Lindstrom has a lame back and may not be able to continue at third base. McGraw wants to make an outfielder of him, as he is too good a hitter to be kept on the bench. The New York Yankees are moving at a fast gait in the American I.eague and seem to be a cincli for the pennant. They apparently liuve everything a championship club needs, offense and defense and spirit. The class of the club is being shown now. Koenig and Dugan are out of the game, but the team has so much secondary strength that the loss of two regulars hardly is felt. With Walter Johnson back on duty the Washington Senators are bound to improve. The Philadelphia Athletics continue to be a disappointment, and it is doubtful if Connie Mack knows what to do about it,. TECH VS. MUNCIE Bw Times Special MUNCIE, Ind., June I.—Technical of Indianapolis and Muncie High School baseball teams were to meet here this afternoon. It was the last scheduled game on the Tech card.

Has Heilmann Passed Peak?

■

Benching of Hairy Heilmann, thrice baiting champion of the American League, allowed Dame Rumor to get on the rampage with Heilmann as the subject of the latest gossip. Hermann's hitting has been woefully weak, and the rumors floating out of Detroit say that he is about to be weaned away from the Detroit club. There are several clubs in the junior major league which could use Heilmann and it is generally known that bidding for his services would be brisk were he to be placed on the trading block.

EASY WINNER Callahan Defends His Title Against Spug Myers. Bu United Press CHICAGO, June I.—Mushy Callahan, a weaving and graceful little boxer who punches equally well with either hand, today aimed at a championship bout with Sammy Mandell, present king of the lightweights. Callahan, junior welterweight champion, successfully defended his title against Spug Myers, Idaho, Tuesday night, but bis eyes arc more towards the lucrative lightweight division than at his own somrwliat synthetic championship. Jim Mullen, main boxing promoter in Chicago, has announced he will attempt to induce Mandell to meet Callahan this summer. There was little question Tuesday night of the superiority of Callahan in his bout with Myers.

Lets get down to cases

YOG don’t need a degree from Oxford to figure out why so many men smoke pipes today—and enjoy them. Pipesmoking has increased at least three-fold since Prince Albert came into the picture. And pipe-pleasure has increased a thou-sand-fold. And with good reason! Prince Albert in the bowl of your pipe means pipe-joy coming up the stem. That’s the story of P.A.’s tremendous • popularity in a pipe-bowl. You suspect that Prince Albert is wonderful tobacco the instant you open the tidy red tin and set free that rich, rare fragrance. That’s a treat in itself!
