CUBS, ROBINS OPEN 4-GAME FIRST PLACE SERIES

Saints Due Here for Night Fray Saturday; Miller Windup Off Soft Diamond and Stormy Weather Cause Postponement of Indian Action Today; Hildebrand Shines in Relief Role as Tribe Loses Thursday. BY EDDIE ASH Following postponement of the windup with the Millers today, the Indians will cnange their working hours and go on a nightie nightie shift Saturday by meeting St. Paul after the sun goes down, with *the nocturnal inauguration starting at 8 p. m. Then on Sunday the pastimers

of the two clubs will breakfast late and return to the day shift for a double-header by sunlight, beginning at 2 p. m. There will be no game Sunday night, heheheh. You got to know your lightj to be a somebody in this league, for on Monday it will be artificial light action again with the windup of the Saint series getting under way at 8. Most of the boys will pick out a red hot talkie to attend Monday afternoon, for they will be idle unless ordered out for daylight batting practice. At any rate, the electric juice goes on Saturday night and players as well as fans are wondering what’s going to happen. The light engineers declare it will be a huge surprise party to the skeptics after they get the lamps set properly during a test to be made this evening. All six towers will be completed some time today if weather does not interfere with construction. - In the meantime Johnny Corriden was disappointed today when wet grounds and stormy weather robbed him of a chance to get back at the Millers, for liis club took a lacing Thursday, 7 to 4. Ted Blankenship, recently of the White Sox, failed to mystify Mike Kelley's athletes, and before he was taken out in the fourth the visitors had enough runs to win. He was wild and unsteady, but perhaps with more work the big fellow may make a go of it in the A. A. Walter Wolf relieved Blankenship and couldn’t get the sphere over the plate, so he

Breezy Tribe Chatter

BUD CONNOLLY kept up his terrific batting streak Thursday and whacked out two singles and a double in four trips, bringing his swatting average to .500 flat. The little fellow has gone wild with the bludgeon and has collected thirteen hits in four games, or in nineteen times at bat. a a a Though night baseball will start Saturday. the dedicatory game will not occur until Tuesday when Milwaukee arrives. The Chamber of Commerce athletic committee plans a rousing send-off and there will be many baseball notables on hand. The C. of C. wants the fans to turn out for a night parade preceding the Tuesday contest and rooters and firms with cars with floats are requested to communicate with Chamber athletic committee members. ana The Indians failed to get their share of baseball breaks Thursday when several line drives went straight at visiting pastimers. Barnhart nearly took a leg off Lefty Brillheart in the first inning, but the sphere was recovered in time to force Connolly at the plate, the sacks being filled. In the same round. Morse snared Freigau's liner and doubled Dorman. a a a (GRIFFIN made a leaping oneJ handed catch on Sprinz in the fourth to cut off a two-base hit and also snared a liner off Koenecke’s bat in the ninth. Brillheart was knocked out in the second stanza and Paul McCullough turned in a sweet job of relief hurling, aided by good support.

whiffing Morse, Gonzales and McCullough. McCullough also fanned in the fifth, Ernie Smith in the sixth and the slugger Cullop and the veteran Earl Smith in the ninth. The rangy lad was given a big hand by the fans and the steel workers perched aloft on the towers stared in amazement. Rain Thursday night left the Tribe diamond soft, and threatening and stormy weather all morning caused officials of both clubs to decide it would be wise to postpone the contest carded for this afternoon and play it off when the Millers visit here again in August.

In the last six innings, McCullough blanked the domest’c nine and was solved for only two safeties during that stretch. He retired the side in order in the fourth, fifth, eighth and ninth. ana Freigau had a good day at third and his fielding was faultless. He had tough luck at the plate and went hitless. Monahan came up with Oberholzer's hot smash in the ninth and threw to Hildebrand to get the runner. JOHNNY RIDDLE failed to report Thursday as promised, and Manager Corriden was left with only one catcher, Joe Sprinz, for Buck Crouse left Wednesday night to join the White Sox.

Christner Knocked Out First Time in Career By Camera Big Italian Stops Akron Heavy in Fourth Round After Losing Three Frames.

Bu United Press DETROIT, June 6.—The ham-like fists of Italy’s ring curiosity today had hung up another knockout for Primo Camera, this time giving him more prestige with fight followers than all his other seventeen knockouts, for the victim was Meyer <Kayo) Christner, Akron (O.) rubber puddler. Christner was counted out after one minute twenty seconds of fighting in the fourth round. It was the first time in five years of fighting that Christner had been knocked off his feet, and he has fought Jack Sharkey, Tom Heeney, Jim Maloney and other good men. The giant Italian, who towered above Christner, was simply too powerful for his opponent. Unable to parry Christner’s leads with skill, he merely threw out his arms, swept aside the blows and walked in to whale Kayo about the head. Christner’s blows to the head apprently did not bother the vaga-
