A. A. Champions Invade Bradenton for Skirmish With Boston Red Sox

Pyle’s Derby to Head West Next Sunday Coast-to-Coast Marathon Scheduled to Get Under Way Again. BY FRANK GETTY, United Press Sports Editor NEW YORK, March 25.—A bright gleam ot nope dances in the pleasant, pale blue eye of Charley Pyle today as he envisions another of hts interminable coast-to-coast marathon runs under way next week. One would think that a man who had lost SIOO,OOO on a similar venture a year ago would knew the shadow of foreboding, but foreboding and C. C. Pyle are strangers. Already the eternal optimist can see his foot-store troupe plodding j along the highways towards the west, pushing painful and protesting feet past cheering throngs, while presidents of Chambers of Commerce wait with the keys of the city and certified checks for the promoter. It is a roseate future towards'' which he will send his rimners away from New York Sunday afternoon. “I learned a lesson last year,” adrryts Pyle. ‘‘And I paid for it. This time, I am profiting by that lesson, and am going to make some money.” This year’s race reverses the course of the original venture, with some tactical changes. The runners (Pyle says he believes 125 will start) will follow United States highway No. 40 from New York, to St. Louis; United States 66 from St. Louis to Chelsea, Okla.; United States 75 and 73 to Dallas, Tex., and United States 1 to Los Angeles. “I have signed contracts with the Chamber of Commerce of all the cities in which we will stay overnight,” Pyle explained. ‘‘They are paying me various sums to travel by way of their towns. With the entry fees of S3OO per man, the revenue from a vaudeville show which will travel with us, and from various other side lines which I have in mind, I can’t lose.

Indians Out to Even Exhibition Count With American Leaguers. BURWELL, PENNER STAR Betzelmen Break Even With Rochester Red Wings. BY EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor Sarasota, Fia., March 25. Highly pleased with the showing of four pitchers who operated against Rochester in the two-game series over the week-end, Manager Betzel of the Indians, was to take his American Association champions to Bradenton today for a struggle with the Boston Red Sox and he planned to use Ferd Schupp and Bud Teachout, south flingers, on the Tribe mound. / The Sox nosed out the Hoosiers,

11 to 10 in a previous battle, staged in Sarasota, and the A. A. standard bearers hoped to even matters with the Beantown Americans this afternoon. Fine hurling by Bill Burwell and Ken Penner kept the Rochester Internationals baffled Sunday and the Indians walked off with the Sab-

Penner

bath laurels, 8 to 1, the Red Wings escaping a shutout when an error helped them to their lone run in the first inning. Burwell allowed four hits in five innings and Penner only one safety in four stanzas, and it was a scratch bingle to the short field in the eighth. Penner’s performance, especially, was good news to the Tribe bosses, because it was his first mound start of the spring after a siege with a balky arm that was weakened by neuritis in the shoulder. The former Texas Leaguer w T as deceptive Sunday with a change of pace and he even tried “Hooks” with success. The fact it was boiling hot suited Penner and. he cut loose—it being his kind of weather He knows how to pitch. As for Burwell, he was all to the merry and all his mates are predicting a big year. He had perfect ontrol, as did Penner, and there were no walks issued the visiting pastimers. Burwell fielded his position like a champion and had four assists and one putout. The Indians compiled eleven hits Sunday after a poor batting day Saturday when they were held to four bingles by the Rochester hurlers. That Saturday skirmish was lost to the Red Wings, 2 to 1, but it wasn’t the fault of the Tribe pitchers, Ruel Love and Emory Osbern, both of whom turned in neat jobs, with Love doing the better work. He held the Wings runless in five innings and was touched for only three hits. tt tt tt Len Koenecke collected three safeties Sunday, all solid smacks. Wid Matthews got two safe, both singles. One was good for a triple, but the field umpire, a Rochester player, ruled Matty failed to touch second. This decision nearly precipitated a fist fight, something unusual in an exhibition game. tt tt tt HERMAN LANE STOLE HOME IN THE SIXTH ROUND SUNDAY. HIS BROTHER, HARRY.
