JUNE —— RETURN OF INJURED STARS BEGINS TO MAKE DIFFERENCE

Simmons Is Prominent First Day Wright Soon to Help Robins and Other Cripples Report Recovery. By United Press NEW YORK, June 19.—Several of the sixteen major league baseball clubs today were counting upon the return of injured players and the addition of athletes secured in recent trades to provide strength for the second half of the 1930 pennant race. Injuries have handicapped many teams during the early part of the season, but most of the stars were expected to be back in uniform before the halfway mark is reached, July 4. Macks Beat Indians A1 Simmons, Philadelphia outfielder, got back in the game Wednesday and helped the Athletics’ defeat Cleveland, 7 to 2. The victory increased Philadelphia’s American league lead to J Vz games and dropped the Indians from second to fourth place. Pittsburgh lost a 4 to 3 decision to New York in the only other scheduled game, but the Pirates took renewed hope in the news that Lloyd Waner had been discharged from the hospital and soon will be ready to play. The Giants won the game with a three-run attack in the seventh, but it took an unassisted double play by Hughie Critz to check a Pirate rally in the ninth. Hornsby Back Soon Brooklyn's Robins, National League leaders, opened their western invasion today encouraged by the prospect of shortstop Glenn Wright resuming to the lineup. Wright, “sparkplug” of the club, has been on the bench for the past ten days. Other National League stars slated for early return include Rogers Hornsby of the Cubs and Frankie Frisch, Ernest Orsatti and Chick Hafey of the Cardinals. Hornsby was expected to be out for the season with a fractured ankle but now hopes to be ready to play early next month. The Cardinals also count on Burleigh Grimes to aid their pennant fight. Dillon Meets Shelby Boxer With four bouts scheduled. Broad Ripple park boxing fans are looking forward to an evening of action tonight at the “rain or shine” arena. First scrap will start at 8:30 and in the main go Joe Dillon, Indianapolis, will tackle Ohnie Gahimer, Snelbyville. A slugfest seems to be on tap in the semi-final when Ray Hertz and Battling Bozo. Negro glove throwers, get together. In other matches Kid Calloway will oppose Johnny Myers and Red Shearer will tackle Jerry Smith.

Rockne Heads Board to Pick Times’ All-America Thinlies E. C. Hayes of I. U. Among 25 Coaches to Select Stars; In Times Monday.

Bu Timrs Bperint . I SOUTH BEND, Ind., June 19. Knute Rockne of Notre Dame, outstanding in football but long prominent and successful in all forms of collegiate athletics, heads a committee of twenty-five nationally known track coaches which will select an all-American track team, which will appear exclusively in The Times on Monday. “Track and field athletics throughout the country have boomed tremendously in the last two years,” remarked Rockne in commenting on the newly organized board. “The annual Drake and Penn relays, in addition to the many dual and intersectional meets, have aroused a new public interest which undoubtedly will reach a popular climax when the Olympic games are staged at Los Angeles in 1932. I believe a track athlete is entitled to the same all-America honors as a football

School Cancels Wins When Yanks Sign Hurler

Because Pitcher Vito Tamulis of Boston English high school had agreed to join the New York Yankees, the educational institution that he attends has been forced to forfeit three of its victories scored this season. Tamulis signed with the Yanks, May 17, and did not mention it because he was under the impression that as long as he did not engage in a contest for the New Yorkers it was all right for him to play ball for his school. However, the school officials thought differently, and when Tamulis admitted he was under contract to the Yankees, action was taken to cancel the three previous games in which the lad had participated.
