tty Vnited Prrtt NEW YORK, May 28. Two I timely home runs have saved Long George Kelly, 36-year-old first baseman of the Brooklyn Dodgers, from being shifted to the Jersey City Skeeters of the International League. Kelly's homers, driven out Thursday and Friday, contributed to two Brooklyn victories over the New York Giants just after Manager Max Carey had decided to excharge him for Bud Clancey of the Skeeters this week-end. But the exchange has been called off, at least temporarily, because Carey believes Long George may have snapped out of his batting slump. Kelly’s batting has been poor since early in the season when he came to Brooklyn from Minneapolis to replace the regular first baseman, Del Bissonette, injured in training. Kelly garnered his game saving home runs at the Polo Grounds, home of the Giants, on the same field where more than ten years ago he rose to fame in a Giant uniform as one of the greatest first-sackers of all time. Long George hit for the circuit in the fifth inning Friday, stimulating a five-run rally in that frame which downed the Giants, 5 to 2. This victory enabled the Dodgers to replace the Giants in sixth place in the National League, while New York dropped to the cellar. Van Mungo. Brooklyn’s rookie hurler, chalked up his third victory in one week. The Pittsburgh Pirates replaced the St. Louis Cardinals in fourth place by beating the Cards. 8 to 4. Grace and Barbee drove out home runs for the Pirates, and French performed in fine style on the slab. Paul Warner his his twenty-fourth double of the season, a triple and single. Chuck Klein’s tenth home run of the season, with two on, helped the Philadelphia Phillies trounce the Boston Braves, 8 to 5. and climb out of the cellar into seventh place. John Berly, former Indianapolis hurler, starred in a relief role for the Phils. The leading Chicago Cubs staged a six-run rally i n the third inning and defeated the Cincinnati Reds. 6to 4. Charley Grimm’s home run with two on was the feature. In the American league, detroit won, 7 to 5, over the Chicago White Sox. Cleveland defeated the St. Louis Browns, 6to 3. Goose Goslin’s first home run of the season scored two St. Louis runs in the sixth. New York at Washington was washed out. No other games were scheduled.

Last year, Arnold zipped out in front and set up new records at 25, 50 and 75 miles miles, only to have himself slowed down with the field as showers broke. This year, the boys see a battle royal on for the lead with Lou Moore, Billy Arnold and Bryan Saulpaugh in the front, and perhaps Louis Meyer, Bob McDonogh and Gus Schrader coming up to offer their challenge. “Honor Lap” Battle If Arnold, Moore and Saulpaugh decide to go after the lead, the Speedway throngs are promised an amazing burst of speed. It wouldn’t be a bit surprising to see that trio come roaring down the front stretch winding ’em up as far as they’ll go to win the "honor lap.” And to the best ’’winder-up" will go the honor. The tragic crash Friday afternoon which took the life of Milton Jones, veteran Cleveland pilot, was the result of a skid on the dangerous southeast curve, eye-wit-nesses of the accident said. Roy Painter, Thane Houser and Stewart Stout, sitting in the bleachers watching Jones tour around, said the car was making better than 100 miles an hour and that the machine was getting away from him on the turn. Fatal Crash Related On the fatal lap, it is related, the car slipped to the concrete apron, where it bounced into the wall. The machine shot like a bullet from a rifle to the upper part of the track, taking with it seventeen or eighteen feet of the wall. It plunged over into the yard back of the track, and when witnesses reached the scene both Jones and Harold Gray, the riding mechanic, were unconscious. Gray at first appeared more seriously hurt than Jones, and both were rushed to the hospital. First examination at the hospital revealed Jones had a crushed chest and only a bare chance to live. At 5:30 he died. Gray still is in a serious condition at the hospital, doctors reported today. Jones is survived by his son, Milton Jones Jr., who was to have been riding mechanic in this year's race with Maurie Jones, who was scheduled to drive Jones’ other entry, and the widow, Mrs. Molly Jones, who worked “hand-and-hand” with the dead speed star when he was a moto~cycle ace. Then he was "Daredevil Jones” and she "Molly, the Mile-a-Minute Girl.’’ They toured the country for twenty years in a trick motorcycle act before Jones took up auto racing. Triplett Third Fastest At least one of the seven drivers who qualified their cars Friday faced elimination today as the closing day's trials were held. He was George Howie, who qualified his Howie Special at a 103.490 mile-an-hour speed. Only three places remain to be filled in the opening lineup and should more than that qualify, the slowest of the machines will be eliminated and Howie is threatened with losing his place in the lineup. Ernie Triplett, piloting Bill White's Floating Power Special, turned in the niftiest bit of driving Friday when he qualified the fourcylindered bus at a 114.935 mile an hour speed. It was the third fastest qualification of the entire trial period, even faster than the four laps which placed Bryan Saulspaugh in the front row. Saulspaugh's average was 114.369.

BY HENRY McLEMORE United Press Stall Correspondent PHILADELPHIA, May 28.—The United States was a fairly sure bet to clinch its Davis cup series with Australia on the courts of the Philadelphia Country Club here today, as it already leads, one and one-half match to nothing. America's odd lead was established Friday when Frank Shields of New York, defeated Harry Hopman, 6-4, 6-1, 6-2, and Ellsworth Vines, national champion from California, won two out of three sets from Jack Crawford before a first-class rain storm brought the match to an abrupt halt.

Gatti, who was injured early in the season during a gymnrsium drill, pitched his first Big Ten tilt of the season against the Boilermakers and allowed but eight hits. Paul Moss, Purdue shortstop, clouted a homer in the sixth. Baker, with three singles in four trips, and May and Haworth with two timely hits each, led the Indiana attack, w'hile Williams. Husar and Huffaman starred at the plate for Purdue.

This postponed affair will be run off today ahead of the doubles engagement between Wilmer Allison and Johnny Van Ryn and the team of Hopman and Crawford. Vines was leading 6-2, 6-4, 2-6, 3-all when the storm hit, and play will be resumed just where It was left off. Vines should have little trouble in running out the match today. The Californian probably will blast off three games today before Jack gets warmed up. Allison and Van Ryn, the sweetest doubles team in the business, are calculated to make short shrift of the Anzac tandem.

Tribe Closes Series With Mud Hens Today Afternoon Tilt Will Wind Up Toledo Visit; Indians Carded for Twin Bill in Louisville Sunday; Hoosiers Lose League Lead Friday Night. BY EDDIE ASH Times Ssorts Editor The count is two up and two down for the Indians in the night league. Moreover, twenty-two strikeouts have been compiled against the Tribesmen under the lights in the two noctsmal contests. Last Monday twelve of the home boys breezed out and on Friday night ten more passed away via the same route before the slants of Southpaw Trugood. Toledo Hens no6ed out the Hoosiers under the orbs Friday, 2 to 1, and good pitching by Archie Campbell was wasted. Furthermore, the defeat pulled the men of McCann out of first place and Ownie Bush's Minneapolis Millers were in front again today by the margin of two jtercentage points.

The Hens wereo to wind up their visit here this afternoon with action starting at 3 o'clock and on Sunday the Indians will tangle up in a double-header with the Colonels in Louisville. It will be a one-day stand in Derbytown and on Monday, Decoration day, the Indians will be back at Perry stadium for a split double-header, one tilt at 3:30 and the other at night at 8 o'clock. Due to the fact Monday is listed as a holiday the games won’t be free for women as some over-the-state papers have announced. There will be no game on Tuesday. The battle Friday night was lost in the sixth inning. Knickerbocker was first up and singled to center. Powers found a safe spot in left and Knickerbocker advanced to second. West tried to sacrifice and popped out to Wingard. The fastrunning Sweeney bounced a hopper to Hale at third, and, forgetting that Sweeney is a ‘ swift." the Tribe veteran tried for a double play instead of stepping on third to force Knickerbocker. Powers was forced at second on the play, leaving Knickerbocker on third and Sweeney on first. The Hens immediately put on the double steal and Knickerbocker crosesd the plate with Sigafoos' return throw to Riddle was wide. Ward was next up and reached first and Sweeney scored when Campbell took Ward's grounder and made a low heave to first. It proved to be the winning run. The Indians’ lone run was registered in the fourth on Fitzgerald's double. Wingarri's sacrifice and a single by Sigafoos. Southpaw Twogood, former University of lowa hurler, held the Tribe pastimers to four hits while fanning ten. Campbell also was in form and the Toledo hit total was held to five. Twogood struck out the side in order in the third, whiffing Rosenberg, Riddle and Campbell. No Changes in Big Ten Policy By United Press CHICAGO, May 28.-The Big Ten has no intention of following Yale’s plan to curtail intercollegiate athletics, Mayor John L, Griffith, commissioner of athletics of the western conference, said today. “Profits from intercollegiate athletics are necessary to promote intramural sports,” said Major Griffith. “The Big Ten has never felt that the way to develop intromural sports was to reduce intercollegiate games. Twenty years ago the Big Ten decided to reduce football schedules to five games, but the plan didn't work out. We find present eight-game schedules satisfactory.”
