More lamps have been ! ordered by President Norman Perry I to cover certain spots in the far flung parts of the outfield. The free gate for women and ! children Monday saw more than five thousand pass through, and total attendance was about 8,300. The fact paid attendance hit over 3,600 encouraged President Perry and Secretary Clauer and they are convinced league baseball has been saved for Indianapolis. St. Paul got by far the better pitching Monday and rapped out numerous safeties, scoring in four innings, a big rally In the second being good for four runs. Johnny Corriden was placed in a tough spot, for Mike Cvengros, slated to pitch, took ill suddenly and was compelled to go to bed. Ted Blankenship was sent to the mound and couldn’t locate the plate and was relieved by Hildebrand after walking two Saints in the second. The collegian was solved for nine hits in five rounds and Daney worked the seventh and eighth and Ambrose the ninth. Pinch hitters Burwell and Riddle failed to deliver. Van Atta, starting hurler for the Apostles, was banished in the second for yelping about a called strike and Murphy took up the burden and spent a pleasant evening baffling the Indians, whose hit total for the night was light.

Breezy Tribe Chatter
THE newspapers that passed up the news of early plans by Norman Perry for night baseball now are busy covering up and catching up. There was plenty of wild rooting Monday whenever the home nine threatened. Reader interest in the national game is the same as ever. Warstler came through with a brilliant one-handed stop back of second in the sixh and got Wanninger by a half step at first. The Rabbit was out of position for a good throw, but made good by an acrobatic turn. Beth Gerber and Freigau thrilled the crowd with sparkling stops at third. The first double play of night baseball was clicked off in the fifth, Warstler to Connolly to Monahan. THE infield drill under the moon is the money. The athletes keep o ntheir toes and pass the “agate” around with the old swiftness and dispatch. There were so many storming the gate Monday that a bargain rush was small in comparison.. The field seats in right were nearly filled and many fans gat in front of the grandstand. Bob Quinn, veteran of many years in big league baseball. looked on in oopeved amazement as the fans streamed up the runway. The Red Sox president said Norman Perry has solved the baseoall riddle for Indianapolis. Tire veteran Gerber demonstrated in two night games that an old-timer can ramble under the lamps. The Saints took three of four in the series and arc chasing Louisville, but Leifield’s club is going to miss Bruno Haas, who was injured Saturday and probably is lost for the season. He was helped on a train Monday and sent home on crutches with a broken kneecap. When. some. of. the. speedy. Saint pastimers get under way they burn up the paths. The parade tonight will form at 6:30 in the vicinity of North and Michigan streets. Two bands have been engaged by the Chamber of Commerce athletic committee in charge of the celebration. Many civic and luncheon clubs will take part. Many fans went out on the field at the elose of Monday's game to get a glir sc of lights and shadows from the st 4polnt of the players. The crowd numbered 8,800. The paid gate was 8,671. With the Chamber of Commerce stirring up interest another large turnout is expected tonight.

three hits for St. Paul and the longest drive of the contest was clicked off by Grabowski, when he tripled to left-center in the fourth. There were some red-hot stops by both infields and the cutflelders also proved they could make running catches by artificial light. Pioneering night baseball and losing is getting under the Indians’ hide and it now appears certain the bosses will have to step out and bolster the team’s punch and strengthen the mound staff. Among prominent diamond men expected here tonight are Judge K. M. Landis, Thomas J. Hickey, Sam Breadon and George Muehlebach.

Johnny Corriden said Warstler'* sensational p’ay on Wanninger in the sixth was the best shortstop thriller glimpsed by him during his more than twenty years in baseball. Dorman and Connolly collided going after Davis short fly in the second and it went for a single. It was Dorman's ball. With Paschal on first in the fifth Hoffman juggled Rettger's single and Paschal sprinted all the way from first to the plate. In the fourth Davis scored from third on Wanninger’s. short, fly. to. Barnhart when Barney was slow in cutting the ball loose.

European Cup Play Reaches Semi-Finals; Yanks Arrive

Bti United Press NEW YORK. June 10.—With European zone competition advanced to the semi-final round and the United States’ squad on hand to meet the survivor in the inter-zone finals, France’s opponent in the Davis cup challenge round is more uncertain that at any time in the past decade. Australia, Japan, Italy and Czechoslovakia have qualified for European zone semi-final play. If Big Bill Tilden is available for play the United States will be a favorite to defeat the Japanese, at Paris, July 18-20, but if Tilden stands by his retirement from Davis cup play, America may fail to reach the challenge round for the first time since the World war.

B V FA Venice CLEVELAND, June 10.—An old axiom that once a batter is smitten upon the dome by a pitched ball he is forever thereafter “plate-shy” or bashful about standing up there watching ’em whiz by, is the goose liver. In a game between the Cleveland Indians and St. Louis Browns April 30, young Coffman of the Browns smacked Johnny Hodapp behind the ear with a fast one that bounced into the grandstand after it struck. A little later, Alvin Crowder performed the same experiment with Dick Porter as the subject. At the time, John Hodapp was batting .250. That figure represented a slump for John, of course, because John’s five-year big league batting average was .310. He went right back into the game and his batting average in a month leaped from .250 to .379. a a a PORTER’S case was only a little different from Hodapp’s. Dick was hitting .293 when the apple crashed against his derby. For several weeks Porter was given hospital treatment. He returned to the game, and in his first dozen engagements since being nudged on the knob, has batted .500, lifting his average well above .340.

Sharkey 9-to-5 Choice Over German Heavy in Garden Scrap Thursday New Cash Record for Bout in Which Dempsey Is Not Involved Expected" Uncertainty of Fighters’ Ability Holds Down Wagering. BY DIXON STEWART United Press Staff Corresoondent NEW YORK, June 10.—Pugilism's "million dollar gates” passed out of existence with the retirement of Jack Dempsey, but promoters of Thursday’s world heavyweight championship contest between Jack Sharkey and Max Schmeling believe the bout will draw between $700,000 end $750,000 and establish a record for bouts in which Dempsey had no part The five record gates in prize ring history were made with Dempsey
in one of the corners. Only two other bouts ever drew more than $500,000, Harry Wills and Luis Firpo attracting a $700,000 gate at Jersey City in 1924, and Gene Tunney’s final title defense against Tom Heeney drawing *691,014 at New York in 1928. Garden officials, always optimistic in their predictions, base estimates of Thursday’s receipts on the advance sale and reservations, which exceed $500,000. All reservations must be paid for today or the tickets will be put on the market, releasing many choice seats for late purchasers. The Sharkey-Schmeling bout has all the angles to make it a strong drawing card. Schmeling’s physical resemblance to Jack Dempsey and his punching ability have been widely "ballyhoeed,” while Sharkey has aided the publicity with "flag waving” proclamations. Opinion among boxing fans is very evenly divided, although the “experts” are almost unanimous in picking Sharkey. Betting odds are reported at 9 to 5 on Sharkey. Wagering is unusually light, largely because of Sharkey’s reputation as an “in and I outer” and the uncertainty sur-1
