1 By Eddie Ash | Tribe Players Rush Training Season mum ‘Little’ Men Often Have Trounced Giants m m m Petrolle Unavailable Here Until April
JNDIANS who are spending the ofT-season in Indianapolis rushed the calendar today as they were “overcome” by Old Sol and decided spring had arrived. “Anyway,” said Tom Angley, robust backstop, “It’s on the way and we’re l trying to help it along.” Asa result the small group of Tribe pastimers went out to Park School and took a workout. Starting spring training on Feb. 16, is something new in the American Association, but Rrd Killefer, Indian chieftain, told the boys to go to it and he supplied them with horsehides, gloves, bats and uniforms. Moreover, to encourage the ambitious athletes, Killefer joined them in the workout and tried out his ancient “souper.” Angley, Johnny Riddle and Art Queisser, all catchers, formed the training party. Bill Thomas, right-handed pitcher who looked good last year, also is in the city, but wasn't sure of getting out for the advanced drill today. He is employed at Perry stadium and is in no need of baseball training just at present. Official spring workout is not scheduled until March 12, at French l ie l ', but Manager Killefer is of the opinion there will be other players checking in here before that date. What to do with idle time has some of the pastimers singing the blues. Not ail were able to find employment this wim er. Tom Angley is a newly-wed. He married a Florida girl and honeymooned to Indianapolis. The bride had heard about subzero weather, hut never had experienced it and she had much to write home about when it got. to near ten below here recently. MAN MO l NT A INS DON’T ALWAYS WIN THE difference in sizes of pugilists doesn’t always mean the smaller man will lose. Ernie Schaaf, the heavyweight who died after battling the giant Camera, knocked out Vittorio Campolo, in the seventh round, Campolo even towers above Camera. Our own Jack Dillon, the old Hoosier Bearcat, “feared no man,” and fought opponents so big they caused him to appear as a pigmy. Jess Willard, former heavyweight champion, made the scales groan at 250 pounds when in lop shape and stands 6 feet 6 in'hes. He was flattened by Jack Dempsey in three rounds. Jack st-:ids 6 feet IV2 inches and at the time he uncrowned Willard, weighed about 188. More and more the opinion points to the fact Schaaf was in poor physical condition when he faced Primo last Friday night—the death light. It is said he had not recovered entirely from a hard attack of the flu. Gene Tunney and Jack Dempsey attribute Schaaf’s death to an old injury and think Max Baer delivered the punch that eventually led to Ernie s demise. On Aug. 81, last year, Schaaf was knocked unconscious by Baer in the tenth round at Chicago and the closing bell saved Ernie a k. 0. against his record at, the’hands of the Californian. Max dealt out a lot of punishment, however, in the last rounds, and Schaaf was out for a long time after the wind-up bell. He was beaten down under a terrific series of blows. A left hook and right cross to the j jaw, followed by a left hook to the body, put Schaaf on the floor. Doctors and handlers worked for some time before Ernie was revived and placed back on his feet. It was said he collapsed again in the dressing room. b b b a a a FARGO EXPRESS MAY INV ADE LATER QAM SLOTSKY, local boxing matchmaker, said today he had learned >3 that Billy Petrolic, the Fargo Express, prospective opponent for Tracy Cox, will not be available here for a bout until in April. He dickered with the hard puncher from the northland and reached an understanding on terms, Slotsky announced that he expects to have no trouble in signing Cox for the important fight. If the match is made, it will stack up as the biggest in Tracy’s career. Petrolle has fought ’em all, including champions. and built his reputation on throwing dynamite gloves and toe-to-toe fighting. Joe Glaser, Chicago fistic pilot, writes that Cox doesn’t need to look far to obtain immediate action. Joe has under his wing a trio of experienced and durable performers anxious to get a crack at the Hoosier pride. They are Tommy Grogan, Ray Miller and Rock Island Mike Dundee, all willing to work on a percentage basis. Glaser invites promoters and Tracy’s manager. Bert Rumer, to communicate with him. "These boys,” says Glaser, "have their records in black and white to prove they are entitled to trade swaps with the best at their weight in the cauliflowere profession. They are nationally known and are eager to invade Tracy's back yard.” nun bob NEGRO BALL ( LUBS DEFY DEPRESSION . I A LARGE Negro baseball organization is becoming more promising as I leaders of various clubs throughout the country send in their assur- ! ance to affiliate. The western division of the National Association of ! Negro Baseball Clubs already is organized, and several eastern clubs have I agreed to join. Indianapolis will have a team in the western division, with Jim Taylor at the head. One of the recent entrants into the association is the Philadelphia Stars. The New York Black Yankees, the Baehrach Giants and clubs from Washington and Baltimore already have agreed to join. Gus Greenless, Pittsburgh, acting chairman of the group, will report at a meeting in the near future in Indianapolis when a schedule for 1933 j will be drafted. The organizers think they will make a “go” of it despite bad business conditions. Separate standings will be kept of the eastern and western groups and the leading team of each division will meet in the Negro world series. B B B B B B Max Carey’s worries will begin on Feb. 26, when the first squad of Brooklyn Dodgers report at the Miami training camp. When the boys | walk into that gay life down there it's no telling what antics they will pick i up off of the ball field. Temptation is only half of it in that play ground! spot. There are plenty more lures than are in the average baseball man- j ager’s book of night life don’ts. B B B B B B AN Old Reader asks if Bill Cummings, the auto race driver, is dead. I Bill is very much alive and doing right well by himself in speed spins on the west coast. Another reader wants to know v;ho will play j third base for the Philadelphia Athletics this year. Frank Higgins, from j the Pacific Coast League, is slated to fill Jimmy Dykes’ old assignment, j Lou Finney or Bob Johnson, both from the Coast loop, will be candidates j for left field in place of A1 Simmons and Roger Cramer is picked to per- j form in center field, where Mule Haas used to roam. B B B B B B Walter Riley, secretary of the Indianapolis Indians, returned from Ft. Worth today after spending a week and a half in the Texas city look- j ing over the baseball set-up here. He was sent to the site of the Lone Star Cats by Norman A. Perry. Tribe owner, who purchased part interest; at Ft. Worth recently. Riley fell in love with Ft.

i the key man to the Bruins' chances of repeating in the senior circuit race ! this year. The Cubs, slaughtered by the Yankees in the late world series, : have added Babe Herman to the cast which made such a spectacular finish in last year's race. And although the presence, of Babe and his hitting potentialities raise Grimm's hopes, it is the prospect of a rejuvenated* Grimes that is causing Charlie to go into a song and dance. Remember Burleigh? In 1931 he won seventeen and lost nine for the St. Louis Cards. Then he proceeded to slide his spit ball past the Athletics to win two world series games, while Pepper Martin vas ruining Mack's hurlers with his barrage of base hits. But last year with the Cubs. Grimes was a failure. He pitched five complete games and worked in thirty. He won six and lost eleven. "Grimes is going to take his regular turn on the mound for the Cubs this year." said Charlie. "He is. i feeling fine and is eager to go to work, now that he has his appendix out. He is a great money pitcher and I'm counting on him to win a lot of games." Burly Burleigh will be 40 years old next August. He is one of the last of the spit ball hurling tribe.

Campbell Forced to | Delay Record Trial Bluebird Repairs Not Completed: Future Attempts Must Be Made During Low Tide in Mornings; Briton May Make Test Sunday. BY HENRY M’LEMORE United Tress Staff Correspondent DAYTONA BEACH, Fla., Feb. 16— Sir Malcolm Campbell’s hopes of making an immediate second assault upon his own world's land speed record of 253.9 miles an hour were dashed today when his mechanics told him the adjustments he ordered made on Bluebird after Tuesday’s 240-mile-an-hcur drive were not finished. When the giant racing machine was towed back to the garage. Sir Malcolm was told It would be ready to go Wednesday. But today many of Bluebird's vital parts still were strewn about the floor.

THOSE who thought Tech’s tumble to Ccnnersville was a “barney” no doubt were surprised to hear that these same Spartans had tomahawked the Anderson Indians in their own backyard Wedr liday night. And Mose Pruitt's speedsters, paced by the “goal-dust” twins, Sleet and Dillingham, added another big name to their impressive record in a very workmanlike and spectacular manner, 29 to 27. Anderson, led by a half-pint youngster, Ruh, stepped out in oldtime fashion to grab a 12 to 3 lead at the quarter post. There wasn’t much doing in the second quarter, which ended 16 to 4. Something snapped in the Anderson attack at the start of the third quarter, and Connersville came to life. The Spartans fired eleven times and bagged six field goals, three of them by Sleet, and it was Anderson 22, Connersville 18 when they started the final lap. Connersville tied the count at 25all midway in the final eight minutes, and then snagged two more fielders to lead, 29 to 25. Just before the gun. Fisher scored for Anderson and the final count read 29 to 27, Connersville. Coach Case shifted his Anderson lineup frequently after the first half. Tim Campbell and other well-known Hoosier coaches were in the stands.

Dienharti who- turns- out, winningfootball and basketball teams with monotonous regularity, started from scratch this year and gave the local Irish rooters a team that looks like an even money bet to retain its 1932 state laurels.

Washington's Continentals play host to the Dienhart five Friday night, and on Saturday, Joe takes his boys to Connersville to battle the team that beat Tech.

INDIANAPOLIS, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1933
The delay means that Sir Malcolm has only the faintest chance of taking the car out before Sunday. There is a slight possibility that he may be afforded an opportunity to open Bluebird upon Saturday, but it’s not worth a bet. For the only beach he will get on Saturday will be afforded by the low tide of 8:05 a. m. and the beach, at that early hour, is usually blanketed in a fog that refuses to lift until the sun nears the Meridian. It was just such a rainy mist that sent Frank Lockhart to his death in 1928. From now on to Feb. 23 Campbell, if he is to run at all. must do it in the morning. For it is not until the twenty-third that low tide again comes in the afternoon.
Controversies Continue in Schaaf Ring Death Case; Funeral Friday

They’re two of the best centers in the state, supported by some firstclass playmates. On Saturday. Peterman leads his Blue Devils into the Panthers’ den at Bloomington. The university city lads, coached by Pete Phillips, have grabbed themselves a big chunk of laurels with some big, league basketball recently. Bloomington no longer is a set-up. Red Barrows, Panther guard, is the spark plug of the Phillipsmen. He’ll get plenty of attention Saturday.

Seventy-nine DOints Is plenty in anybody’s ball game, and means more wrinkles for Tony Hinkle's swarthy brow. On March 1. Notre Dame will be here for another shot at the Bulldogs.

Coulter of Northwestern university contributes anew angle to the controversy which followed the death -of Ernie Schaaf, Boston heavyweight. Coulter revealed that Schaaf received medical attention for a spastic muscular condition to have been caused by a brain irritation here on Feb. 25, 1932, the day before he fought Young Stribling at the Chicago stadium. This condition, if due to a brain irritation, might bring death after a sudden blow in the prize ring, Dr. Coulter said.
cently he trained with Sammy (Kid) Slaughter at Terre Haute when the latter was grooming for the national title against Jones. Twice one afternoon, using big gloves, Baker had Slaughter on the floor. Incidentally, Jones knocked out Slaughter in seven rounds. The Washington A. C. is lining up an attractive supporting card and anticipates a sell out for the Jones-Baker tilt. If successful in this promotion it is the plan of the club to bring other world champions to Indianapolis or men rated as topnotch fighters.
