gOTH the home and visiting players in the Sunday afternoon professional roller polo games at Tomlinson hall will wear numbers hereafter, and it is expected this identification will be appreciated by the fans. The numbers also will be carried on the programs. The numbers have been made up on heavy muslin and will be worn on the backs of the players’ jerseys. The numerals have been provided by Joseph P. Holies, who has been one of the local clubs most generous supporters. Rolles is the proprietor of a printing office and has donated all the printing supplies this season, including the official score sheets, the programs and the tickets for the games In addition, he has a team entered in the local amateur loop, which he has outfitted in league fashion with bright green uniforms and equipped with all the necessary playing paraphernalia. also is the official scorer for local games. Glenn Newton, first rush of the Muncie roller polo club, is a railroader, working with a crew in the Muncie yards. When Indianapolis last played at Muncie armory, Newton had to work and was unable n . the Muncie However, this did not prevent him from keeping track of the game. to tra , Cl L B run close to Wle arm °ry, and Newton managed un i L e RW , ltch rnßlne aioun d in the immediate vicinity all eveto srp Pay hookpy ’’ t 0 dash into the armory in his overalls how *’ ere coming along.

That has been her ambition since she was 5. "To be a trainer whose voice rings with authority in the ears of joclceys and exercise boys, one must have a license from the Jockey Club. Miss Hirsch applied for the sheepskin in December, and because she is known as Miss Mary ’ to most of the club’s staid, fifty members she never dreamed that being a girl might disqualify her. particularly since _he members knew that she had already helped to train some famous horses. But she still is waiting for her license, and no word of explanation from the Jockey Club has come. Miss Hirsch is a daughter of Max Hirsch. trainer of celebrated horses. When she finished school she took over the job of managing his stables, where the boarders include such aristocrats as the horses of Admiral Cary T. Grayson, B. M. Baruch, and her own 2-year-old filly, Tullihoo, which, she explained, is the Gaelic word meaning commotion. “Miss Hirsch has no ambition to be a jockey at public races. She wants to be officially qualified to saddle horses and put on their bandages before they are led to the track.’’

SWIFT FIELDERS ARE LIGHT AT PLATE WASHINGTON is boasting about its groat infield and there is reason to boast when looking at the lineup from the standpoint of defense. Kuhel at first, Myer at second, Bluege at third and Manager Cronin at short stop form a swift fielding combination, all capable of eating up the whistling shots. They are not heavy hitters as a group, however, Cronin being the lone slugger in the bunch. Kuhel may come through and show some of the power he displayed when with the Kansas City Blues. Local fans will remember this young man as the sparkplug of the Kaws a few seasons ago. He was poison to Tribe pitchers. Double plays to the number of 157 were completed by Washington last year and of course the infield turned in the majority of the twin killings. This total was third high in the league, the peculiarity being that the lowly White Sox were high with 170 and the “lowlier than low” Boston Red Sox were second with 165. Cronin batted .318 in 1932, but the other Senator infielders were not in the list over the .300 mark. Kuhel batted .291, Myer .279 and Bluege .258. The Washington outfielders and catchers will have to do some stalwart sticking to make up for the lightweights on the innerworks. No one knows what the reaction will be now that Cronin is a manager. He may break out and hit harder than ever and again the youngster may crack under the strain of the extra duties and lose his batting eye. n a tt ana TWO members of the Rosenblum-Celtics professional basketball team of Cleveland went free wheeling in Wheeling, W. Va., the other nignt when they ran afoul of the law and got tossed into the hoosegow. Dutch Dehnert and Dave Banks, a couple of stars with the Forest City five, escaped jail sentences, but each was fined $lO and costs when they pleaded guilty to charges of disorderly conduct. After defeating the Wheeling Corrugating team. Dehnert and Banks arranged a victory celebration and were going strong at 3 a. m. when the cops nabbed them. Dehnert was carrying three quarts of home brew and a pint of wine and Banks was burdened with four quarts of the home foam stuff. That's and odd and lusty way for athletes to keep at the height of physical condition. a a a an tt The early bird catches the sand fleas. Jimmy Foxx, home run slugger; Mickey Cochrane, ace catcher, and Lew Krausse, pitcher, have reported already at the spring training camp of the Philadelphia Athletics at Ft.. Myers, Fla. They will be sporting the sun tan long before the other players arrive. a a a a a a This year will be the golden anniversary for the Philadelphia Phillies in the National League and Manager Burt Shotten is dreaming of delivering a pennant contender for the long suffering customers at Baker finger bowl. a a a a a a A dollar was a dollar in the old days and not all of the old timers of baseball squandered their diamond earnings. George Wright. 86. drew down only $1,400 as a pitcher with the Cincy Reds sixty-four years ago and saved enough to put him in business. He now vacations at Palm Beach and watches the world go by through rose colored glasses. a a a a a tt Ernie Lombardi, long-beaked catcher with Cincinnati, had his tonsils removed and his feet worked on this winter and says he feels like anew mail. Now if Ernie would have part of that nose amputated it would be ekeh with the fans. a a a a tt Connie Mack is going to do his share in helping the railroads. No Athletics will be permitted to travel in autos this year when the team makes jumps. Several of his players have been in the habit of using their machines for short trips and billing the club for rail fare. All “swindle sheets" are out. says Connie.

2,500 Fans See Fast Golden Gloves Scraps City Amateur Boxers Battle Way Into Final Rounds of Times-Legion Tourney Next Thursday at Tomlinson; Nate Goldberg Is Star. Seven knockouts and fifteen other battles, most of them slugfests from the opening bell, gave 2.500 fistic fans one grand evening of entertainment as Indianapolis amateurs continued their battle for glory in The Times-Bruce Robison Post of American Legion Golden Gloves tourney at Tomlinson hall Thursday night. Theie were many close decisions as the simon-pure battlers, survivors of first round tests a week ago, struggled for places in the final title bouts in the eight weight divisions next Thursday night at Tomlinson hall.

Fields Is Underdog JACKIE FIELDS, .right), world’s welterweight champion, is hard at work on the west coast preparing for his title battle with Young Corbett, Fresno slugger, at San Francisco next Wednesday night. Corbett is the favorite.

HERE’S the team they’re talking of these days. It’s Greencastle’s husky Tiger Cubs who have been hitting a fast pace in recent tilts. Decisive triumphs over Frankfort. Brazil, Central of Evansville and Sullivan in the last four starts have convinced fans that C. B. Edmonson, popular young coach, has a real title contender again. A remarkable defense which has held all opponents to low scores this season and a flashy offense, led by Jess McAnnally, all-state center and Gimble prize winner last year, and Marion Hurst, all-state guard, feature the play of the Tiger Cubs. Edmonson also boasts a wealth of reserve material. Eight members of the ten-man Tiger Cub squad have played in at least one state tournament game at the field house. In 1931, Greencastle was runnerup to the championship Muncie five, and last year dropped a close semi-final decision to the title-winning Newcastle five.
