Perhaps a mark which will stand throughout the tourney will be hung up. Perhaps splits will predomin? ate. But, at any rate, the tourney will be on, and the first group of the 1,105 bowlers will have taken its shot at the generous prize list. Saturday, however, will be a different story, and the eagle eyed and portly Mr. Wallace will have his eyes and hands full, for from 1 p. m. until midnight the Indiana alleys will be swarmed with tourney bowlers.

Indians Face Rochester Saturday and Sunday; Play Red Sox Monday. JOE SPRINZ LOOKS GOOD New Catcher Makes Impression in Workout. BY EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor SARASOTA, Fla., March 22. Facing a stretch of three games in three days, beginning Saturday, the spring training camp of the Indiana was to see much hustling today as final touches were to be put on the squad for the two battles with Rochester here Saturday and Sunday and, the tilt with the Boston Red Sox at Bradenton Monday. Double batting practice was taken Thursday with two cages in operation, followed by stiff drills by infielders and outfielders. Joe Sprinz, catcher purchased from San Francisco, took a full course of training with the exception he did not cut loose with his throwing arm. He donned the harness and caught part of the batting practice and displayed agility behind the plate. Sprinz is a pleasant chap with a fine physique for the heavy backstop duties. Well Set Up He stands nearly six feet and weighs 180 and his age is 25. He went after, high fouls with speed and had no trouble picking them out of the sun. An interview revealed the fact he played much soccer in St. Louis during the winter to keep in sound physical condition. Joe batted .316 in the Western League before going to the coast league last year where he hit well until the second half of the campaign and he told Coach Corriden Thursday he felt certain this year would show an improvement in his stick work. < Made Good Deal The splendid impression Sprinz has made here already has convinced the Tribe bosses they put over an excellent deal. Manager Betzel was away from camp Thursday and was to get his first look at Sprinz’s form today. The report Bstzel received from Corriden on Sprinz Thursday night caused the little Tribe pilot to feel elated. Bruno went far out into the gulf on a fishing trip and the bouncing he got made him sea sick. tt tt tt Danny Boone pitched to the batters Thursday and then went to the sidelines and did some more throwing. Before and after these drills he jogged around the park and helped “shag” in the outfield. It was a hard day for Danny. SUNSHINE HAD * A *REAL PUNCH THURSDAY AND THE TRIBE PASTIMERS TOOK TO THE BEACH FOLLOWING THE PRACTICE. IT WAS ONE OF THE BEST DAYS OF SPRING TRAINING FOR WEATHER AND WORK. tt tt tt Clyde Barnhart was the day’s heavy hitter and the punch he displayed was a delight to watch. The veteran gradually is cutting down his weight, but still has more to take off. a tt tt Bud Connolly continues on the upgrade around second base and has very few miscues in ractice. tt tt a Joe Sprinz attached his name to a contract before going out to practice Thursday.

M’Larnin Is 3-1 Favorite Over Miller Clash Tonight at Madison Square Garden Before Capacity Crowd. BY FRANK GETTY United Press Sports Editor NEW YORK, March 22.—1 tis 3-to-l on Jimmy McLarnin and 3-to--1 for the speculators tonight. Ever since the McLarnin-Millcr match was announced there has been such ail incessant demand for tickets that the price of admission has trebled. The battle over tickets tlireatens to exceed that which will take place in the ring in Square Garden tonight. Yet this little Jewish cartoonist known as Ray Miller should give Jimmy McLarnin, the baby-faced Irishman from the far coast, the battle of the latter’s comparatively brief career. Miller stopped McLarnin out In Detroit on Nov. 30, no matter what may be said by the latter’s manager. Asa result, one would suppose that the little Chicagoan would be a favorite in tonight’s bout. Instead of that, McLarnin rales a three-to-one favorite. Miller made McLarnin quit In Detroit, and there is no doubt about that. Perhaps Jimmy was badly cut above the eye, or maybe he was injured below his optic. The fact remains that he couldn’t get up off his stool to answer the bell for the eighth round.
