Twin Bill Winds Up Tribe Series With Brewers; Indians Win Tuesday

Milwaukee Rallies for Two Runs in Tenth and Hoosiers Come Back With Three; Walks Plentiful.

Two games at the ball yard today, with the first at 2. The Brewers and Indians agreed to move up their Thursday tilt and play it off in a double-header and as a result the fans were to get a bargain attraction as the teams wound up their series. The clubs will loaf Thursday and on Friday the Tribesmen begin a round of struggles at Columbus, coming back Aug. 27, when Toledo invades Washington park. It was a long one at the Tribe lot Tuesday, the Hoosiers winning, 6 to 5, ten innings, the contest requiring 2 hours, 26 minutes. Jonnard went all the way for the home pastimers and emerged the yictor, despite the fact he issued nine walks. Rabbit Warstler drove home the winning run in the tenth after two out. It was a wild inning—that extra round—Milwaukee getting two runs and Indianapolis three. Denny Gearin, veteran midget southpaw, pitched 9 1-3 innings, Ray Cobb relieving him, but the defeat went against Gearin. , Eight Indians batted in the tenth before they got the winning marker over the plate. The victory for the Tribesmen evened the series at one apiece. Bases on balls were plentiful, but there was a shortage of hits, each team getting only nine. Con-

HILLS COURSE, FRENCH LICK, Ind., Aug. 21.—Chick Bader of Gary was happy Tuesday as he finished the thiry-six holes of qualifying play with a total score of 150. Bader has been a regular visitor at the state meet for several years and was regarded as a regular qualifier, but rarely under 156 and usually between that total and 162. a a tt Jack Tultte, originator of stockinglecs golf among men in the stale tournament, was the renter of attraction on the ninth freen Tuesday.

So far Jack is the lone stockingless golfer in the men's tournament. a a a Wynne Van Winkle of Terre Haute, who has been keeping the scoreboard for the past two years in a very efficient manner, was back at the same post Monday. Wynne helps the press boys by quick posting of the scores and seems about as necessary to this tournament as Pop Whitney, the veteran starter. a a a Dr. M. E. Clark, newly elected president of the Methuselah Club for state golfers over 50 years old, was busy at the first tee Tuesday answering questions of the old timers about their first tournament. W. H. Patton of Martinsville went on record with the first invitation, suggesting the members come there this fall to a barbecue and round over the nifty ninebole course. u a a Frank Shields, the veteran Indianapolis Country Club player and 'Barbasol King’, took on an added title Tuesday as “Consistency Frank.’* Frank fished with a 36-hole total of 158. Looking over his cards one finds that he played out Monday morning in 39 for the first nine holes and came back on the second nine with a 40.

nolly poled three safe to lead the home attack. Manager Berghammer of the Brewers exploded hi the tenth and after fussing around with Umpire Snyder and some fans, he was banished from the field. The Indians appeared gypped in the fourth when Left Fielder Blared made a rolling catch on Monahan and doubled Connollv. who was on base and running. Eldred trapped the sphere and rolled over with the ball beneath him. It was the opinion of many that Eldred did not retain possession, and the Indians beefed about it. but Umpire Johnston remained firm after making a delayed decision. Herman Layne was absent from the lineup, owing to the illness of his wife. Be.tma played and got two hits and two walks. The Tribe outfield had little to do. Matthews getting the only putouts. And he had two. Luce made a fine catch against the fence on Warstler in the seventh. The ball almost went over. Sixteen walks were given in the contest and each club had twelve men left on base. The Indians have purchased a pitcher and catcher from the Three-I League, John Daney. hurler, and Ernest Lorbeer, catcher, stars with Bloomington. Daney. a real Indian, will join the Tribe early in September. Lorbeer won’t report until next spring. Daney. a right-hander, has won eleven and lost eight games. Lorbeer bats right-handed.

Teachout ran for the injured Indian and eventually scored the winning run. Bejma drove in the first of the Tribe’s three runs in the tenth. Riddle, batting for Jonnard, batted in the second and tying run and Warstler delivered the hit that won the contest. It was a line drive to right center.

“Alex has done too much for the Cardinals and St. Lous to punisn him by a suspension and cut him from the pay roll. Too, he is broke ciiiu needs Lie money.” Alexander was suspended by Manager Bill McKechnie In New York for breaking training rules. Breadon said today that “Alex is fully pardoned.”

Her father is a dentist in Chicago, but the young woman stated he also maintained a home in La Porte. Her father played in the state amateur tourney at South Bend a few years ago. Several entries in the women’s event, however, carried their complaint to Jess Mossier and Homer McKee, amateur golf association officials, and these two men, constituting a self-appointed investigation committee, returned the elimination verdict.

Chuck Takes Point Shade at Harrison Friedman Fails to Show Damaging Punch; Brown Batters McClain. Chuck Wiggins fooled ’em again Tuesday night and finished on the long end of the points in his tenround scrap with A1 Friedman at Ft. Harrison. The margin wasn't great, but it was enough to entitle the veteran Hoosier to the decision over the Boston heavyweight. Chuck fought under a handicap of a badly bruised head and got away to a slow start, but paced himself just about right and scored often in the later rounds to finish out in front. Friedman lacked a punch and the scrap was just so-so. In fact it failed to excite the crowd much anywhere along the line. Friedman was the aggressor most of the time and kept boring in, but I his short blows carried little weight. Norman Brown decisively out- | pointed Howard McClain in the ! semi-windup of eight rounds, scor- \ ing two knockdowns. McClain was ; thumped badly. Results of other ; bouts: Billv Rhodes had the belter of Chunky Ew.ng in six rounds; Billy Myers held an edge on Joe Brian in six rounds and Willard Chappell knocked out Red Kussj'll In the first round.
