Ohio, where they will represent Indianapolis in the Western championships. Miss Wolf won the title in a hard fought match Sunday afternoon, and teamed with Thelma Stever to win the doubles title from Denice Kurzrock and Dorothy Stephenson Stout in a bitterly fought three-set match a little later. Miss Wolf and Miss Adams will team together in the doubles in the Western meet, and look good for a position in the finals. Both are remarkable shotmakers, and possess exceptional stroking ability. Miss Adams was ranked ninth in the Western division in 1927, and has shown improvement in the last year.

Manager Betzel had his pastimers back in Indianapolis today for an exhibition with the Pittsburgh Pirates and the contest will start at 3 o’clock daylight saving time. A large crowd turned out last year when Ownie Bush brought his big leaguers here and the fans were given something to shout about when their favorites defeated the Pittsburgh crew. There are five former Pirates with the Indians and three former Indians, including Manager Bush, with Pittsburgh, and for that reason today’s exhibition was looked upon as a sort of reunion. At any rate, the game will give Indianapolis diamond followers an opportunity to see some of the 1927 National League pennant winners in action for Bush has indicated he will use several of his regulars. On Tuesday the Indians return to Louisville for a single game with the Colonels, Tuesday, and a doubleheader Wednesday.

The Colonels used two pitchers in the first struggle and three in the second. Eddie Sicking, former Indian, batted like a demon for Louisville.

Julius Sagalowsky, favorite In the men’s singles, chatting with Dick Crane, semi-finalist, before a warm-up match Saturday afternoon, said that George Lott, Chicago flash, and member of tne American Davis cup team, owed mueh of his success to copying the style of Indianapolis’ own. John Hennessey. Sag is pulling for Johnny to come out on top in the all-English tourney now on at Wimbledon. Miss Adams and Miss Wolf should have a good chance of ending the long court reign of Miss Marion Leighton, Chicago star, who has bossed the Western women’s play for half a dozen years. In doubles, the Indianapolis pair should go to the finals unless lack of practice together handicaps them. The present tourney has been showing some hot tennis to Indianapolis fans. The matches have been hardfought. and the later rounds especially have been evenly-matched. Catherine Wolf, singles champion, is one of the best "sports” on local courts. Playing through the early rounds, without a formal referee, she was noticeably unbiased in her calling of the shots. She gave the "other fellow” the "break” on numberless close ones, and never let her judgement be influenced by the score. Indianapolis’ women players all have shown a similar spirit, and good sportsmanship has been the order of the day throughout the tourney.
