Michigan Captures Big Ten Track Crown; Indiana Sixth Sentman, Illinois Hurdler, and Simpson, Ohio Sprinter, Feature Meet; Two Records Broken.
Bn United Virus CHICAGO, May 26.—Regardless of what happens from now on it seems certain that Lee Sentman, the black-haired Illinois hurdler and George Simpson, the Flashy Ohio State sprinter, are destined to be the best remembered of the Big Ten track and field athletes of 1930. If any convincing of this were nseded. it came last Saturday when the thirtieth annual western conference games were held at Evanston. Simpscn, running without starting blocks, disappo'nted all of Eddie Tolan’s backers when he beat the great Michigan Negro in both the 220 and 100-yard dashes, running the 220 in 21 seconds flat. Sentman, lithe and a master at judging hurdles, won both the 220 and 120-yard hurdles, in easy fashion and then to become high point man for the meet, turned in his fourth place in the broad jump for a total of twelve points, two more than Simpson. Michigan’s well-balanced team broke Illinois’ three-year string of triumphs, garnering 51 points by placing in eleven of the sixteen events.

After hitting eight home runs in three double-headers in three consecutive days, Babe Ruth was held helpless Sunday by Mahaffey and went hitless in four times at bat. Ruth now has fourteen home runs and is five days ahead of his 1927 schedule, when he made his record of sixty homers. The Yankees won the crucial seven-game series from the Athletics, four games to three, while the Senators were taking five straight from the Boston Red Sox, and improved their position in the race. Over in the National League the St. Louis Cardinals and Brooklyn Robins continue their neck and neck race for the lead, with the Cardinals half a game out in front. The Cardinals have won sixteen out of their last seventeen games, having a seven-game winning streak intact prior to which they won nine straights, dropped a lone game to the Cubs and then started their present spurt. Oddly enough, the Cardinals have not beaten the Pirates in four games played against them this season, but moved into Pittsburgh today bent on continuing their dizzy pace.

Indians Bump Leaders Twice; Visit Columbus for Three-Game Round Cvengros Holds Colonels to Six Hits, While Tribesmen Solve Wilkinson for Ten; Koenecke Comes to Life With Three Blows. BY EDDIE ASH Following the important achievement of winning two out of three from the league-leading Colonels in the series that closed Sunday, the Indians were in Columbus today to open a three-game set with the second-place Senators, who "took” the Tribesmen for two in three here last week. The Corridenites are in fourth position, one jump ahead of Toledo.
In the Sabbr‘h fracas at Washington park, Cvengros duplicated Claude Jonnard's good pitching of Saturday and held Louisville to six hits, winning 5 to 3, two of the visitors' runs being unearned. Errors by Crouse and Warstler put runners on who eventually Roy Wilkinson was bumped for ten hits, with Len Koenecke collecting three, a double and a pair of singles. Attendance was about 3,500, fair enough on a day when thousands of amusement seekers were parked at the Speedway. As the dramatic critic puts it, the Sunday contest was good theater. The home nine jumped out in front with a run in the opening stanza when Warstler singled after one out and scored on Hoffman’s double, and in the third round three singles produced another Tribe marker.' The fourth inning brought the Colonels their first run and first hit. Layne bounced a single off Cvengros’ leg after Crouse dropped his foul, and Ganzel doubled, Layne stopping at third. Olivares’ sacrifice fly scored Layne, and on Thompson’s grounder Ganzel was retired between second and third and Thompson got lost between first and second and was doubled up. In the seventh the Colonels scored again when Olivares got a life on Warstler’s fumble and crossed the plate on a double by Wilkinson after Thompson fanned. The Colonels tried hard in the ninth to get going, but only one run resulted. After one out Olivares got two bases on an infield hit and wild
