By Eddie AsE (ox Signs for Another Pittsburgh Go m mm Official Data Given on Holler League

Tony Herrera, fast and shifty, will supply a real test for Tracy Cox, Indianapolis puncher, on the night of April 28 in Pittsburgh, according to announcement by Bert Rumer, manager of the Hoosier junior welterweight. Smoky City papers have been prodding promoters there to stage this match and Rumer agreed to it today after communicating with Lou Raymond, veteran matchmaker. According to the correspondence in the hands of Rumer, the boys will clash at 140 pounds, give or take a pound, and trade wallops over the ten-round route. The feature scrap will be held at the Arena Club. Promoter Raymond also stated in his wires and letters that a CoxBilly Petrolic bout will be demanded in Pittsburgh if Tracy succeeds in disposing of Herrera. The Indianapolis boxer has made two appearances there recently and easily took down the decisions. A Cox-Johnny Jadick match, that was in the making, was called of! by Jadick. Tracy’s pilot said the terms for the battle with Herrera call for a guarantee of S7OO with a privilege of 25 per cent. n a xs tt tt tt HENDRICKS KEN WORTHY, Indianapolis demon statistician for the Indiana Professional Roller Polo League, has compiled some interesting figures on the first season’s play. The veteran Ted Lewis, Indianapolis second rush, was high goal shooter with 54, one more than Thompson of Ft. Wayne. Collins of Indianapolis led the first rushes in points and Socks Quigley of Indianapolis topped the centers. Statistics: FINAL OFFICIAL STANDING OF TEAMS Goals Oamn by OpdoPlavod Won Lost Pet.

The Indianapolis delegation planned a parade in the Queen City and the Hoosier rooters were to present Bush with a silver plaque bearing names of all the delegation. Ted McGrew, National League umpire, whose home also is in Indianapolis was to be presented with a loving cup. The committee in charge of the tribute to Bush was made up of Dan Scanlon. Dr. Frank T. Dowd, Frank Rodocker, John Noonan, Leo Hurley and D. R. Cooper. It was an old-fashioned picnic party that made the trip to Cincy in special cars and if the Reds happen to win the onener it’s a good guess Ownie Bush will be busy for a couple of days rounding up his home-town friends to remind them they live in Indianapolis and not in the Queen city. Spirit of the Old Gang of Mine was running high as the group left here. ts tt tt a a tt The National Wrestling Association has upheld A1 Feeney, Indiana ring supervisor, on his indefinite suspension of Joe Savoldi in the Hoosier state.

More than 200,000 of the more fortunate were expected to attend opening contests on eight major league fronts. Appetites of baseball-thirsty fans were whetted by prospects of closer pennant races in the two circuits, resulting frfom a hodge-podge of changes during the off-season, and they were anxious to test the kick that the games braumeisters had given the 1933 concoction.

There was a possibility of rain. Vice-President John Garner was to lead a parade of players. Joe Cronin, youngest manager in the majors, expected to start Alvin C:o\4dor and Luke Se4vell against Lefty Grove and Mickey Cochrane of the Athletics. About 30,000 fans were expected to attend.

O Brien was ready to make his debut as a first-ball thrower. Three flags 4vere to be raised, the American flag, American League pennant and world's championship flag. Babe Ruth, 4vho has been troubled with a sore throat, was scheduled to be m his accustomed place in right field. Lefty Gomez 44'as picked to pitch against Ivy Paul Andrews, ex-Yankee. Cleveland’s Indians 4vere to tackle the Tigers at Detroit before an expected crowd of 25.000. The weather prediction was “cloudy.” Bridges of Detroit was slated to pitch against Brown. The Chicago White cox invaded the Browns’ home at ot. Louis, with prospects of fair 44 eat her and a cro4vd of 15.000. The opposing pitchers were to be Ed Durham and Bump Hadley. Cubs Defend Title n . chica So Cubs were opening ' the defense of the National League pennant against the St. Louis Card- j mats at Chicago. Fair skies and: \\aim winds 4vere promised, and 25,OGO fans were expected to swarm into Wrigley field. Lon Warneke was picked to pitch for the champions and Dizzy Dean for the Cards.

Baker Bows to Slaughter; Hook and Lee Also Triumph

Sammy (Kid) Slaughter still is Indiana’s best middle4veight socker. Bud Taylor's Terre Haute Negro proved this rather conclusively at the armory Tuesday night when he outpointed Rosy Kid Baker of Anderson over the ten-round route. Baker stepped into an early lead with a series of looping right-hand wallops to Slaughter's head. One of them in the third round sent Sammy Kid to the canvas, but he bounced up before the count was started. Slaughter was ineffective in the opening rounds and couldn't land many solid punches. Before the fight he 4vas reported to have an injured right hand. Starting with the fifth round he galloped through the final stanzas in handy fashion, hammering Baker about the head,

Indianapolis bowlers always have been slow in turning in their entries and will have no one but themselves to blame if they fail to get that blank in by tonight.

but he couldn’t get the Rosy Kid off his feet. Too much infighting slowed up the late action. It was the second time Baker had gone the route with the Terre Haute Negro. The rest of the card was just fair, with t.wc more Taylor tossers making knockout debuts. Bud Creed, a Negro light hea4'yweight. stopped A1 Howard.

Thomas Is Hero in Tie Classic With Brewers Tribe Hurler Blanks Milwaukee for Eleven Innings and Contest Goes Fourteen Rounds. 3 to 3: Polli Relieves Caldwell in Ninth to Halt Locals. BY EDDIE ASH Baseball fans of Indianapolis still were discussing today the brilliant pitching of Bill Thomas in the inaugural American Association battle at Perry stadium Tuesday. The slender righthander of the Tribe staff stood up for fourteen innings and earned a draw against the Milwaukee Brewers, 3 to 3. opposing t4vo Cream City hurlers. Earl Cald4vell and Tony Polli. It was a marvelous exhibition of early season twirling on a cold, damp afternoon and the Hoosier rooters are ready to doff their hats to young Bill. He handled his assignment in fine style. Darkness finally called a halt to the struggle. The runs made by both clubs tvere scored in the early stanzas and Thomas pitched eleven sessions of shutout ball. The Brewers scored in the first, second and third innings and Indianapolis tallied two markers in the first round and tied up the contest in the fifth. Caldwell, Milwaukee starting hurler, gave way to Polli in the ninth with two do\4Ti and the bases loaded and the Brewer relief thrower retired the next man to send the fray into extra rounds.

When the A. A. curtain went up the schedule called for 154 games, and the Indians and Brewers still have the same number to play, for it will be necessary, of course, to play that Tuesday conflict all over again. The second skirmish of the initial series was to be staged today at 3 p. m., and is was thought Manager Red Killefer would use Lefty Bob Lcgan In the box for the Hoosiers. The Brewers will be here through Friday. Three Games Postponed The game here was the only action in the American Association Tuesday, the other three openers being postponed by rain, cold, and 44'et grounds. Paid attendance was 2,211, and it 4vas a courageous group that remaned on hand in the face of frigid atmosphere and chilly wind. Milwaukee crossed the plate in the first inning when Thomas was touched for three singles. The Indians bounced right back in their half and took the lead, 2 to 1, when Harry Rosenberg tripled behind singles by Bedore and Wingard. The Breivers evened the count in the second on Grimes’ double and a one-base blow by Koehler, and stepped out in front in the third on a walk to Christensen and a second double by Grimes. Scoring Stops in Fifth Thomas, the Tribe hurled, carried home the, marker that tied it up for Indianapolis in the fifth.
