Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, April 10.—The other night in Boston Mr. Ted Sandwina, a dime-a-dozen * heavyweight, was having more than his customary trouble getting anywhere in particular in an affair of the

l-ing that involved a modicum of skill in hitting and ducking. So Mr. Sandwina who came to this country from Germany not so manj> months ago and who has demonstrated an amazing facility in adapting himself to the peculiar customs of the land proceeded to do what most

Williams

of his brother sportsmen do in like circumstances. He hauled away and belted Mr. Roberto Roberti, the promising young Fascist from Italy, three yards below the Mason and Dixon line and such was the effect of the punch that the Mussolini of Maul was rendered then and there unfit for further activity. a a a Mr. Sandwina, finding himeslf in a tough spot, had fouled out, as the boys say, and while it is discouraging to lose this way it is better than standing up in there and getting your block knocked off; besides when you come away from the scene you always can claim you were given a dirty deal. a a YOU can say to the eager young journalists who come down to Ihe train to interview you: “Fouled him? That’s a lot of friend egg plant. I hit him one right in the old bread basket, as fair a punch as you’d ever want to see, and the bum quits on me and the blind referee lets him get away with it." Os course, Mr. Sandwina may not have intended to foul out. He may .merely have lost control of his swings and perhaps the circumstance that he ' was keeping his swings meticulously high until Mr. Roberti began to paste him is after! all an unimportant and insignificant I detail. ' a a a What interests me most is the manner In which the Boston ring commissioners disposed of the case. They took Mr. Sandwina':; purse and turned it over to the wounded war veterans of the city. I They did this at the instigation of Eddie Mack, the local promoter. aa a j “T DON’T want any of 'these low A punchers on my bill,” said Mack. “I don’t know of any better way to teach them to punch high than to take their money away. If I kept the money there would be a squawk; I was trying to pull something. By turning it over to the Veterans I eliminate all criticism—and I think in time I’ll eliminate all fouling.” Mack is all right. If anything will eliminate fouling the policy of taking the boys’ dough away will. Fouling is the one thing that many of the boys do best. Os all the mild forms of felony with which the game is beset, fouling is the most popular and the most generally practiced. Hardly a week slides by that a more or less important bout somewhere around the country doesn’t end with Joe Doakes losing to Mike Swift on a low punch. And, singularly, in eleven times out of ten the fine young sportsman who authorized the low one was in the process of getting his noodle punched off at the time. a a a The conventional of various commissions toward these ; young men is to call them in, de- ! liver an oration on the ethics of sport, suspend them for thirty or sixty days and forget about the j matter. In the meantime, the young men, having collected their swag in full, go out laughingly and do it again. a a tt IT was James Corbett. I believe, who remarked that if a fighter doesn’t knew how to keep his punches up he shouldn’t be allowed in the ring. At times accidents will occur, but they won’t occur often, and when they do they aren’t accidents. Few good fighters ever foul. Study the records of the champions and see how few of them ever lest or won that way. These brief suspensions have no effect on the foulers. Frequently the suspensions are of no longer duration than the time the foulers normally take out between bouts, anyway. And talking “ethics” to them is like talking upper berths in Pullmans to Lindbergh. The only language they know is money. That’s what they are in the game for. Start that away from them—as Boston has—and fouling will cease. Thunderous applause.)

House Democratic Nine Challenges Republicans to Baseball Contest

BY THOMAS L. STOKES United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, April 11.— Spring baseball fever has fired up a controversy behind the scenes between House Republicans and Democrats more heated than any which has appeared over pending legislation. Rep. “Tom” McMillan of South Carolina, who once wielded a powerful bat in the Sally League to top the league’s hitters, brought the controversy into the open today with the scornful pronouncement that Republicans for two months have side-stepped every challenge he has made as leader of the Democratic nine for a ball game this year. “You can tell It to the world that the Republicans are afraid they’ll have to take two lickings this year,” he said, speaking in a loud voice, so Rep. Clyde Kelly, (Rep.)

Tribe Figures Prominently in Strangest Opening of A. A. History

All Games Extra Innings and One Is Forfeit —lndians Down Millers in 13th —Spencer Shines. FRIGID FANS SEE MANY THRILLS Contest Ends as Dusk Settles—Burwell Relieves Schupp and Baffles Visitors —Emmer Injured. By EDDIE ASH STARTING its twenty-seventh season in organized baseball, the American Association opening Tuesday capped all previous openings with extra inning games in each city and a forfeit contest thrown in to make the day stand out as the most tumultous in the league's history. And Bruno Betzell’s Indians were up to their necks in the tragedy and thrills as it took thirteen innings for the locals to

down the Minneapolis Millers* 5 to 4, and then only after neardarkness had settled o'er AVasliington Park. It was the kind of opening to cheer about, howl about, grumble about and finally, at the wind-up, the loyal, half-frozen fans who remained until the end were rewarded when Catcher Roy Spencer punched a line drive to right center that drove in Reb Russell with the winning run. Fans Swarm Field The finishing inning was filled with turmoil. Police aid was necessary to clear the field once as the fans decided Walter Holke’s two-

base drive was a home run and swarmed on the field. But rapid work by the officers and Umpires Powell and McCafferty put the situation back in order and allowed the teams to conclude their wild struggle that was give-and-take all the way. Down in Louisville the Colonel rooters lost their heads and exploded in the twelfth and littered the field with so many cushions the Purdue Defeats Little Giants By Times Special LAFAYETTE, Ind., April I!. Purdue’s baseball team defeated Wabash College here Tuesday afternoon, 5 to 4. A last-inning rally by the Little Giants fell short by one run. The Boilermakers got away to a fast start and scored three runs in the first stanza. Herberer and Wilcox each secured two singles for the locals.

Pyle’s Los Angeles-to-New York foot race remained unchanged today as the competing runners and walkers left here for Bridgeport, thirtyfive miles distant. Andrew Payne, Claremore, Okla., leader; Peter Gavuzzi, England, second, in total time standings, and two other leaders finished in a dead heat for ninth place in the race here Tuesday, from Sayre.

Pennsylvania, leader of the Republican nine might hear his challenge. “They’re afraid of us,” he declared. “We licked them tw r o years ago—and we can do it again ” The score in that historic contest, according to best reports was 12 to 9 in favor of the Democrats. There are rumors about the lobbies that the real reason for the failure of Republicans to answer McMillan's challenge is the presence in Democratic ranks of Representative Casey of Pennsylvania, who looks like a baseball player and who, it is said, is related to the mighty Casey who poled out quite a few before that final strikeout. Kelly insisted the Republicans will answer the Democratic challenge. He and McMillan went out to the opening game here Tuesday together, and took a few pointers from grand stand seats.

umpires were forced to forfeit the game to St. Paul. At Toledo, the champion Hens and Kansas City Blues went twelve innings to no decision, darkness bringing the conflict to a close with the score knotted at 2 to 2. And in Columbus, Too In Columbus the tail-end Senators developed some spunk and battled the chesty Milwaukee Brewers beyond the regulation distance, the Brewers winning, 11 to 10, in ten innings. Yes, it was a strenuous day all around and players, officials and fans were driven to tne breaking point during the four melees. But today Indianapolis fans said the thrills made them forget most of the chills of the wintry opener Tuesday and they had something good to say regarding each member of the home team who saw action Tuesday. Wintry Day Baseball Paid attendance locally was only 6,061, but according to President Jim Perry the crowd numbered 8,500 counting everybody. There were two bands and countless others, who saw the fracas as guests or by other means. There was sunshine but it was a fooler and many rooters were made to realize that even

Q/,

when spring comes winter can stick around. And the athletes also suffered from the effects of the raw atmosphere and any miscue Tuesday was excusable. The Indians were fortunate in having only two errors, while the Millers found the going much rougher and got charged with five misplays. Oftentimes players juggled hot drives as the burning ball socked against a chilled hand. Anderson Delivers in Pinch Os the Indians’ five runs. “Doll” Jacobson drove in two, Betzcl one, Spencer one (the victory run) and Anderson one. “Andy” made good in the pinch role when he hatted for Ferd Schupp in the eighth and tied the score at 3 and 3 by getting a single that scored Holke. For Minneapolis two remarkable catches by Spencer Harris, center fielder, thrilled the crowd and prolonged the battle. In the eighth he went into left center and snared a mighty drive by Spencer with one hand and in the eleventh he sprinted into right center and risked serious injury by making a catch off Jacobson that was headed into the field seats. Emmer Carried From Field Minneapolis lost one player, their great shortstop, Emmer, who was injured badly in a slide for home in the eleventh and it was necessary to carry him off the field. He made a noble effort to score, but failed, and when his spikes caught he was put out of action with a broken leg. The pitching victory went to Bill Burwell, who took up the Tribe burden in the ninth after Anderson batted for Schupp to put the Indians

O' O

back in the running. Bill was cold, walking three men and hitting one, but he permitted only one hit in five innings. Leo Moon, the Millers’ starting hurler, was knocked out of the box by the Betzelites in tjic eighth and Hubbell, who relieved him. was charged with the defeat. The Indians bumped into trouble with men on bases and sixteen were left stranded. Officially nineteen were left on bases, but there were three runners there when Reb Russell dashed home in the thirteenth with the winning marker. Holkc Poles Double Here are the details of the Tribe’s victory rally. After two out Russell singled over second and Holke smashed the ball into deep right field and it struck high up in the field seats. Russell crossed the plate and Holke made the circuit, but the umpires called it a double under the ground rules and ordered Russell back to third and Holke to second. The fans thought the ball went out of the playing field, and they swarmed on the diamond. Police quickly dispersed the rooters and Connolly walked, filling the bases. With dusk rapidly darkening the park, Roy Spencer stepped

to the plate and lined the sphere to right center and Russell romped in, ending the hectic encounter. It was Spencer's fourth h>t and the frigid fans again broke loose and yelled their delight over his feat of picking the ball out of the near-night and smacking it on the “nose.” Spencer held up Schupp and Burwell in great style and pegged out three Millers who attempted to steal. It was a large afternoon and evening for Roy.

WASHINGTON PARK CHATTER

Rabbit Warstler. the Indians’ kid shoitstop, pleased the tans with his fielding skill during the wild opener with the Millers Tuesday. He accepted twelve of thirteen chances. Reb Russell, leading A. A. swatter last season, relieved Mueller in the eleventh and singled. And he started the winning rallv with a single. Two for two gives Reba fine start on the new season. Connolly executed a great plav on Orsatti s hard ground drive in the twelfth and got the runner at first for the third out. Snaring that bail prevented a Milder run. The Indians* bad round was the fourth when the Millers scored twice. Duncan opened with a double and the right side of the Tribe infield became confused on Orsatti’s drive and it went for a hit. Duncan scoring. Emmer singled and Orsatti dashed to third. Mueller made a diving catch of Henna's low liner and threw to Holke. but Holke muffed the throwin. preventing a double plav and perhaps a triple killing, for Orsatti. on third, thought Henna's drive was going safe and he played off the base. When Mueller clung to the sphere, Orsattt returned to third to touch up and by that time Mueller's thrown-in was on its wav to Holke, and when it squirted out of Walter's glove Orsatti scored and Emmer reached second. If the bail had not escaped Holke there was a good chance of a triple play on Orsatti at the plate. The Indians tied up the fracas in the eighth and again in the eleventh. Umpire Powell and McCaffertv had very few kicks over derisions, in fact each side had onlv one questionable verdict to beef about, which is unusual in a game of thirteen innings. Manager Betzel was uncertain about his pitching selection for the second game of ihe Miller series today. He desired to use Emil Yde. but Yde worked in the bull pen Tuesday and there was a chance he would not be ready for action this afternoon. Shortstop Frank Emmer probablv will he lost to Minneapolis all season. X-ray pictures today disclosed a broken leg. He was an all-around star last vear and was taken up by Detroit for trial and returned to the Mi’lers onlv recently. The Indianapolis club and lans regret Ihe accident deeply. Frank has been a popular figure in A. A. baseball. For once In a life time the batting orders announced by the rival managers during the morning of opening day stood up for the game. Ferd Schupp fanned twice and then surprised the opposition by hitting safely to left. During the fracas three Miller runners were thrown out at the plate. Mayor Slack and Governor Jackson formed the honorary battery and entered into the fun of the day with fine spirit. The parade was n dandy and Owner Jim Perrv swelled with pride over the enthusiastic send-off and reception given his Indians. Shorty Burch was presented with a vegetable bouquet and he declared it would

Heeney’s Climb to Fistic Fame Comparable to Case of Firpo New Zealander Chooses Old-Timer as Manager, but, Unlike ‘Wild Bull,’ Sticks With Pilot.

Editor's Note: Followine: is the second of a series of six articles on the rise of Tom Heenev. who meets Tunney for the championship in July, to fistic fame and his manager, Charley Harvey. BY HENRY L. FARRELL, NEA Service Sports Writer From a dime to a million,” as it might be written by Luis Angel Firpo and Thomas Heeney, is a tale that has many high spots in common. It isn’t a matter of official record that either had as much as a dime when they arrived in this country. There is a record in the United States internal revenue bureau, however, that shows Firpo was a millionaire when he left the United States. Perhaps Heeney will have as much when he returns to the blacksmith shop in New Zealand. Fortune, in the contribution of opportunities to Firpo, certainly was kind to him and Heeney may be blessed with even more of a golden smile from the fates. By the minute fraction of an inch Firpo failed to win the heavyweight championship of the world when he slugged Jack Dempsey clear out of the ring in New York. Heeney is coming into his big chance to win the millions that go with the heavyweight championship and the decision of the fates will have to await his battle with Gene Tunney. Fate played in Dempsey's favor when he fell out of the ring on to the press table in New York in such a position that he could pull himself back into the ring in time to massacre Firpo. But fate played against Dempsey in Chicago last September when Tunney was permitted to doze for fourteen seconds after having been smashed to the floor. Perhaps, in the workings of those fates, a break against Tunney is now due and Heeney may get the benefit. • * a a FIRPO crawled out of the hold of a South American liner on the Jersey side of the New York port. He hadn't had his clothes off in days and the only article of apparel he had to distinguish him from a vagabond was a rubber collar he washed in a water trough on the dock. Firpo first attracted attention when someone carried the news to Jimmy De Forest that there was a great-looking heavyweight prospect in a cellar in Newark, a guy who wanted to fight. De Forest, an oldtimer, the best trainer in the country and a skilled handler of fighters, for years in the quest of

act as a pennant-winning charm lor the Indians. The Millers scored off Burwell in the eleventh on a walk, single, hit batsman and sacrifice fly. It was Zach Wheat, famous real Indian big league slugger, who batted for Rawlings and lined the ball deep to Mueller to score Orsatti from third. ‘■The "We re here because we're here” boys occupied the field scat3 and they had a gala day despite the cold. Little bonfires started bv the fans along the first base side of the grand stand as the day grew old and the atmosphere cold were extinguished by police. Bands from Butler College mid Technical High School supplied the music in the parade and at the park. The Columbia Club received the Charles C. Carr silver cup for the most beautiful float in the parade: the American Business Club got the Em-Roe cup for the most unique float and the Gyro Club received the Indianapolis Power and Light trophy for having the largest parade attendance.

that unknown heavyweight that every old-timer is seeking, De Forest, accepting the tip on Firpo, dug the huge South American out of the cellar, staked him, fed him and put him up in his home. He was making a fighter out of Firpo when some Brazilian waiters from a coffee house in New York told Firpo that De Forest would double-cross him. They told him De Forest' was heart and soul a Dempsey man, that he would school him wrong and betray him and Firpo left De Forest. It isn't too much to believe that if Firpo had stuck with De Forest he would have won the championship. In his fight with Dempsey, Firpo was beaten considerably in his own corner by amateurish handling. When Heeney arrived in this country, he, too, hooked up with an old-timer, Charley Harvey. But he stuck with him against all temptations to throw him over and therein may be the difference. ARRANGE CAGE SERIES Kansas and California Agree Upon Two-Year Contract. By United Prcsx LAWRENCE.

Ross of Pittsburgh in the top half of the double windup and Babe Keller of Toledo shading Kid Leneho of Mexico City in the lower tenrounder. Kane, a stiff right-hand puncher, had Ross in distress soon after the fight got under way and the game Italiau took a lot of punishment around the kidneys as Kane kept volleying away with his right. In the eighth Referee Grammell apparently was of a frame of mind to halt the proceeding • and waved Ross to his corner. The Pittsburgher failed to heed thd order and the fight went on. Grammell should have stopped the bout. Ross took a lot of unnecessary punishment in the last few rounds. Babe Keller was a bit too clever for Lencho and kept back-pedaling away from the Mexican’s swings. Keller would have been far ahead if it were not for his lack of aggressiveness.

The two will shoulder the opposition with Walter Ramsey and Rush Brader. who had been announced previously. None of the four has any idea of beating the title holder, but all are getting into the best trim possible in hope of making a good showing, as Greenleaf has said he will give a suitable prize to the amateur making the highest score against him on this present exhibition tour. Greenleaf will play each man 150 points and will add a display of fancy shots to each exhibition. Greenleaf was shorn of his title when he appeared here last, but he is again on top for the eighth time since 1919, and reported as playing in his best form.
