Yde and Schupp Put Big Smack on Winning Streak Started by Hens Indians Make It Two in Row Over Toledo and Move Up in Race; Two Tribe Homers.

BY EDDIE ASH About one more defeat at the hands of the Indians and Casey Stengel, Toledo boss, will be ready to enter a flag-pole sitting contest or a bunion derby, in fact anything of the goofy variety. He brought his Hens to town Saturday sporting a twelve-game winning streak, and the Hoosiers not only shattered it but made it two in a row by .copping the Sunday fracas also. Emil Yde downed the visitors in the series opener, Saturday, 4 to 2. and Ferd Schupp propelled the “agate” in the Sabbath fracas ana knocked off the Caseys, 6 to 3, allow - ing five hits. Reb Russell and Rabbit Warstler each crashed a homer Sunday, Reb's being a mighty clout over the high fence in right center. The blow was made oft Pfeffer, the second flinger used by Toledo and Russell was the first Indian to face him. Warstler's circuit swat was a drive to deep left that hopped over the low fence in the corner and also was nicked off Pfeffer, in the fifth. The Tribe had a big inning in the second that produced four runs off Jess Barnes and the locals never lost the lead despite some dangerous Hen rallies and threats. The visitors got their three markers in the third, and in the sixth, seventh and ninth opportune Tribe doubie plays cut them down.

Pyle Bids ‘Blister Boys’ Bye-Bye; Retains Winners for 24-Hour Race Major Portion of Finishers in Marathon Homeward Bound —Promises Prize Money Friday.

JAMES E. POWERS tailed Pres* Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. N. Y., May 28.—C. C. Pyle today bade adieu to a major portion of the fifty-five runners and walkers, who survived his first attempt at a transcontinental marathon by finishing Saturday night in Madison Square Garden. ' The rest will remain to run in his twenty-four-hour relay race at the Garden Friday night. If this race is a financial success, Chicago, Boston and other cities will be given an opportunity to gaze upon what Pyle regards as “the greatest longdistance runners in the world.” Pyle promised to pay the marathon prize money after Friday’s race. The comforts of a Broadway hotel left a number of the runners gasping with astonishment after having endured all the discomforts of the road. Andy Payne, the 20-year-o!d Claremore <Okla.) farm boy, who finished first after running 3.422.3 miles, remained quiet today. First prize was $25 000. John Salo, Passaic, N. J., was second and he won .$ 10,000. In elapsed time. Salo finished 15 hours, 35 minutes and 39

Two of the twin killings resulted from line drives socked by Catcher O’Neil. The bases were loaded with no one out in the sixth when O'Neil crashed the ball on the nose only to have Connolly snare it above his head and toss to Warstler to retire the side. Ferd Schupp helped his own cause in the second when he drove in two mates with a single. Warstler turned in a dandy game at short and stole a base and got a timely single in addition to his home run. Indians and Hens were to battle in the third tilt of the series this afternoon and the contest was to start at 3 o’clock daylight saving time. It was “ladies’ day.” Bruno Betzel’s pastimers went ahead of the Hens and Millers in the A. A. race by winning Sunday. There are six clubs in the league engaged in a tight fit. The Tribe was in fourth place today and less than two games back of Brewers and Blues, who were tied for the lead. The Saints, in third place, were just a breez ahead of the Tribe. Indianapolis has won five of Its last six starts, but attendance continues in low figures. The “paid” Sunday was 3.869, and the same contest In Toledo would have drawn nearly three times that amount. No ill feeling cropped out Sunday because of Saturday s fisticuffs between Har.ey and O’Neil that remoyed both from the series opener in the eighth. The incident was forgotten for the day. at 1 st.

Twenty-Four Cars Assigned Positions Over Busy Week-End. TRACK RECORDS FALL Duray New Holder of Course Marks. BY NORMAN E. ISAACS Nine more racing cars were to attempt to take their qualifying trials at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway this afternoon. Twentyfour of the tiny racing creations entered in the annual 500-mile Memorial day classic, to be run Wednesday, passed through their speed tests over the week-end. The nine cars today were four Duesenbergs, Marion Chevrolet Special, Green Special, Chromolite Special, Sievers Junior Eight, and the Elgin Piston Pin Special. The Elgin Piston machine was wrecked last w’eek when "Kelly” Patillo, a coast youngster, crashed into the wall on the southwest turn. Henry Kohlert, who entered the bus, has made desperate efforts to repair the car and said today his machine would be ready. The tenth car to be qualified is Pete De Paolas Flying Cloud Special in which De Paola cracked up Saturday evening. Traveling at a terrific speed, the car failed to respond when De Paolo attempted to go into the north turn. It turned over three times. De Paolo was not severely injured, but will be unable to drive in the race and will be forced to watch the contest from a grandstand seat. H. C. “Cotton” Henning, De Paolo's mechanic, said Sunday that the car would be in shape to qualify by Tuesday and that he was striving to land a pilot for the car. Wilbur Shaw’, local boy, who already has signed to drive relief for Ray Keech, was said to have the inside track on the job. Nineteen drivers whizzed through their speed tests Saturd.'i,’ and five on Sunday. The opening day of trials developed into a gala speed fest and the lap and qualification records held by the late Frank Lockhart tumbled before the assault of the front-wheel drive machines. Cliff Woodbury cracked Lockharts old lap mark of 120.918 by traveling a lap in 121.08 miles an hour and Lockhart’s qualificating speed of 120.10 by moving around the four laps at 120.417. Woodbury was a record holder for twenty-five minutes. The husky Leon Duray started on his trial and was timed at the amazing speed of 124.013 miles an hour for his first lap. The tremendous gait, however, burned up three of his tires and Duray was forced to come in. On his second trial Leon whirled around the oval at an average speed of 122.391. breaking the old marks on every one of his laps. Although only five qualified Sunday action was not lax and the crowd received several thrills as Billy Arnold and Jimmy Gleason waged t\ pretty struggle around the course. The two cars roared up the straightaway wheel to wheel and up around the turns with first tine and then the other holding the lead. Man? of the rallbirds are watching Babe Stapp and hla Miller with more than passing; interest. Stapp has a nifty ear and drives the track as well as any. Harry Nichols, slated to drive the Green Special, will not have the driver’s seat in the race. Clearence Belt, a veteran mechanic, will do the piloting. Belt is quite capable and was ready to qualify the car Sunday when his rear end went out on him. Belt retired to his garage to repair the damage. Cliff Bergere, the handsome Hollywood demon, was the first'of the “fast boys” to start Saturday. Cliff displayed some nice speed and earned the No. 3 post, at a speed of 119.956. Duray, of course, was the winner of the “pole” and Woodbury No. 2. Tony Gulotta, Ralph Hepburn and Babe Stapp grabbed off the second row positoins in the order named. Louie Schneider, Lou Moore and Fred Comer took the third row. The five drivers to qualify Sunday were Pete Kreis and Ralph Snowberjer of the Marmon team, Babe Arnold and Dave Evans of the Boyle team and Jimmy Gleason In a Dnesenberg.

Famous Sisler Goes to Braves for Waiver Sum Bn United Press WASHINGTON, May 28.—Clark Griffith plans to add new material to his ailing Senators, he announced today following his sale of George Sisler to the Boston Braves. He did not name the players he intends to obtain.

Sisler purchased by BostDn at the j waiver price of $7,500. left last night j for Brooklyn to join the Braves. His sale by Griffith, w'ho had purchased him from the St. Louis Browns for $15,000, followed his slump in batting and base running this season. He batted only about \ .250, seldom beat out an infield hit, | and was outdone by Joe Judge in fielding first base. The Braves were the only team in both leagues to bid for the services of Sisler, w’ho in his best days had been a sensational fielder, hitter and base stealer.
