By Eddie Ash Indians Go on Road Until May 19 • mm Down Saints in Kxciting Tilt Monday
INNING five games, losing six and tying one, Red Killefer's Indians closed their first home stand at Perry stadium Monday by taking an airtight contest from St. Paul, 3to 2. It was a game filled with sensational plays by both teams on the infield and in the outfield and when the last out was made the Apostles had runners on third and first. The Tribesmen were idle today and on Wednesday will depart for Kansas City to begin a long road trip in six cities and lasting until May 19.
0 0 0 All Clubs Lose Money WEATHER was consistently bad since the A A. curtain went up on April 11, and players and magnates are pulling hard for a break in playing conditions as the scene of action swings to the western half of the circuit. All clubs lost money during the first two weeks of the schedule. The Indians are looking forward to a big crowd in Kansas City Thursday. Baseball boosters there have been endeavoring to stir up a royal welcome for Tris Speaker’s rebuilt and reorganized Blues. Other western openers Thursday will find Louisville at Milwaukee, Tohdo at Minneapolis and Columbus at St. Paul. a a a Veteran Lefty in Form STUART BOLEN, veteran Tribe lefthander, shut out St. Paul for seven innings here Monday and the few fans on hand saw an interesting mound battle with the lanky Slim Harriss doing the tossing for the Apostles. The Indians grabbed the lead in the second inning, 2 to 0, on infield hits by Wingard and Hufft and timely singles by White and Bolen. Brilliant defense and marvelous hurling kept the score that way until the eighth when Bolen weakened after one out. Jeffries singled, Manager McCann doubled. Paschal walked, Fenner forced Paschal and Hopkins singled, the combination producing two markers and a tied score. After Hopkins rapped out his blow. Jim Turner relieved Bolen and retired the side, eventually becoming the winning pitcher. a a a Coonoy l T ses Speed victory tally in their half of the eighth. Cooney led off with a single and used his spord to prevent a. double play when Bedore grounded to Beck at short. On Callaghan’s grounder to short Beck tried for Cooney at third and the throw skipped away to the grandstand wall and Cooney sprinted home. In the St. Paul ninth Beck walked and was forced by Guiliana, pinch hitting for Harriss. Sigafoos made a good catch on Koster’s fly in short center and a drive by Jeffries went through Sigafoos for a single, putting Guiliana on third. With the dangerous Emmet McCann at the plate, Turner put on all the twist he could muster and a bounce to Bedore retired the Apostle manager for the game-ending out.
Hubbell Hurls Second Shutout Win as Giants Thump Brooklyn
BY JACK CUDDY. United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. April 25.—The second ranking pitcher and the second ranking batsman in the National League figured in a "sunshine and shadows" performance at the Polo Grounds Monday as the New York Giants won a ball game, but lost their player-manager for several weeks. Carl Hubbell, long, lean screwball king, who finished second to Lonnie Warneke in pitching effectiveness last season, registered his second shutout of 1933 as he blanked Brooklyn. 4 to 0. yielding only four hits. This gave Hubbell a total of 22 2-3 innings without yielding a run. Memphis Bill Terry, who combines the duties of manager and first baseman, was struck on the right wrist by one of Joe Shaute's pitches in the fifth inning, causing a fracture that will require several weeks to knit. Terry's absence at bat will be missed as his second-place Giants try to overhaul the leading Pittsburgh Pirates. He is one of the most consistent hitters in the majors. He led his circuit in 1930. came within .0003 of repeating in 1931, and ranked second .to Frank O'Doul last seasoiV after stepping into the managerial shoes vacated by John McGraw. a In the only other National League game played, pinch-hitter, A1 Todd broke up a twelve-inning contest with a single to left with the bases loaded, driving in the run that gave the Phillies a 6-to-5 victory over Bostons Braves. The Phillies replaced the Braves in fourth place. Chuck Klein contributed a homer in the fifth, and Shanty Hogan did likewise for the Braves in the sixth. Chicago at Cincinnati was washed out, and Pittsburgh at St. Louis was played in a double-header Sundav. Washington advanced a neg to third place in the American League standing by capturing its second straight game from the leading New York Yankees. 11 to 10. The Senators combined three doubles and a Yankee error in the seventh for two runs and victory Five Washington OWNER NOT AMONG LONG SHOT WINNERS fill I Hit est /Vi X* SAN FRANCISCO. April 25. A season record price for "long riots” was paid by Voyage Monday at the Tanforan race tiark when he scampered heme a winner in the second race. His few backers were rewarded 5252 60 for $2.

VET CYCLIST HURT Ha Tim • * <■•< BOSTON, April 25 —Reggie McNamara, veteran cyclist, was injured seriously here Monday in a six-day bicycle race when a board in the newly-built track was ripped up in a spill and he rode into it to lacerate his side.
0 0 0 Some Monday Thrills RAY WHITE'S one-handed diving stop of Guiliana’s drive near second, forcing Beck, in the ninth, saved the Indians a lot of embarrasment. Marty Callaghan’s fine fly chasing in deep left center, center and right center, was another reason the Indians won. Beck made a single-handed stop on Cooney in the first and robbed versatile Johnny of Jeffries cheated Sigafoos in the third with a brilliant bit of fielding on a red hot smash and turned it into a double play. In ti e fifth Callaghan raced in and hooked Koster’s low liner with one paw. Hufft made a desperate try for McCann's long smash in the eighth, but Fuzzy was too close to the -aall for a catch and the sphere bounced off the bricks for two sacks. Jeffries contributed a circus catch on Riddle in the fourth and a two-ply killing resulted. It was a bacxhanded stab of a whistling liner. 0 0 0 Players Are Hustling IT was a remarkable home stand from the point of close games. Twelve tilts were played. One was 2 to 1, there were three 3 to 2, two 4 to 3, one fourteen-inning 3 to 3 tie, one 3 to 0, one 4 to 0, one 7 to 5, one 10 to 3 and one 10 to 0. It was a display of exciting baseball, taken as a whole, and goes as a tribute to the athletes who are doing their best to entertain the customers, despite heavy salary reductions all along the line. The boys are going about their business with the same determination as of old, when big league wages were paid in the minors. tt tt a Thomas Early Hero BILL THOMAS, slender righthander, qualified as the early season Tribe hero, although winning only once in three attempts. He worked thirty-one innings, and twenty-six of the number were scoreless. Bill hurled the fourteen-inning opening day tie with Milwaukee, 3 to 3; lost to Kansas City, 3 to 0, when Charlie Wood held the Indians to three hits, and beat Minneapolis, 2 to 1. Total hits off Thomas were twenty-six in the thirty-one rounds. Bill worked as a laborer at Perry stadium during the winter and reached pitching from in short order.

Stapp Is ‘Dark Horse'
Threat in ‘soo* Classic
Waldo Stein, Tire Expert, Boosts Midget Coast Pilot and Ernie Triplett, Pacific Champion; Western Drivers Head This Way for Big Race. BY VERN BOXELL One of the smallest men in racing may be the big hero of the 1933 500-mile classic at Indianapolis Speedway on May 30, if you'll take Waldo Stein's word for it. Stein, racing expert for the Firestone Tire Company, arrived here Monday from Los Angeles, a few days in advance of the horde of coast
pilots swarming this way. He was singing the praises of Babe Stapp. midget of speed. Stapp has started in the classic grind several times, but never finished among the leaders. But he’s right this year, according to Stein. He found himself on the coast w.nter tracks and is coming to Indianapolis loaded for victory. He will pilot an eastern-owned four-cylinder car. Another western flash praised by Stein was Ernie Triplett, twice Pacific Coast champion, and leading again this year, always a star before the home-town fans but never a high finisher here. Triplett is bringing his high-powered four-cylinder Miller to Indianapolis and is groomed for a winning ride. After watching the boys burn up the coast circuits, Stein joined other racing experts in predicting the fall of the 500-mile mark this year. It’s an annual habit of predicting record perfomances, but Stein is serious this year. “It was a hot season of speed in the west,’’ he said. “The competition was violent and cars at the local race will be faster in competition this year than ever before.” Stein told of the crash at Ascot bowl,

“Bob set out to make a new 7 record during a practice spin. He went into a spin on a curve and when he gave it the gun to straighten out, the throttle stuck. He went for cover, but the tail of his car hit the fence, threw him partially out of the seat and crushed him.” Coast Track Dangerous In explaining the many bad spills at Ascot, Stein said the five-eighths mile dirt track, which now has become hard surfaced, never was built for the terrific speed at which the pilots •nv are traveling. “On sheer driving ability and intestinal fortitude, the boys are running at least four seconds a lap faster than the track, originally a practice oval, was built for,” he explained. Stein was headed east when Bryan Saulpaugh, another young daredevil, was killed at Oakland, Cal., Saturday. With a full winter of racing under their belts, the west coast drivers are coming to Indianapolis with high championship hopes. Two Indianapolis pilots also were among the leaders in the west. Two Hard Luck Pilots Wilbur Shaw has been having bad racing luck, including several spills, and Wild Bill Cummings turned in a record performance recently, but also has been riding in hard luck. They’ll both be here for the 500, Stein said. Lou Meyer, 1928 winner, is out to repeat in Ralph Hepburn's eightcylinder job. There will be a flock of new Miller jobs, four and eight cylinder creations, seeking laurels. And it won’t be long now until the roar of racing motors will be rolling over the local Speedway bowl. Pilots are coming from every direction, with many from the west due this week. Stein will open his tire laboratory at the speedway Thursday to take care of the early birds and continue tire experiments.

‘Parachute’ for Auto Speed Pilots
• ■ c- JSHUH
A PARACHUTE for a race driver —or rather a fifth wheel that is being used as a safety device in test runs in preparation for the annual 500-mile race at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway on May 30. In running fast over the two-and-a-half-mile brick track with four quarter turns, in a counter clockwise circuit, the right rear tire is generally the first to show wear and a blowout is often disastrous. An automobile manufacturing company <Studebaker), which has entered a fivecar team this year, hit upon this novel safety device while conducting tire tests. In seeking a tire to support its heavy, stream-lined machine over the 500-mile competition, the drivers have orders to run until the tire is completely worn out. To protect them, a flange, carrying a smaller but complete wheel, is attached to the right rear wheel, and when the regular tire goes flat the car rests on the emergency tire which brings the car into the pits without serious trouble. The fifth tire will not be used during the race.
State Cage Net Meet Receipts Show Drop
Indiana high school basketball fans paid a grand total of $110,988.33 to witness the crowning of a champion for 1933. This total represents the receipts of the sixty-four sectional, sixteen iegional and final tournament at Butler, announced today by A. L. Trester, commissioner of the Indiana High School Athletic Association. A drop of nearly SIOO,OOO is shown from the top year of 1930, when total receipts were $210,705.51. Total receipts of the sixty-four sectionals this year were $58,254.90, as compared with $124,965.41 in 1930. Four sectionals had deficits in legitimate expenses this year, while many were unable to share receipts with visiting schools and the I. H. S. A. A. due to the low gates. The Indianapolis sectional drew the biggest purse, $3,735.05. Sixteen regional centers drew a total of $20,239.93 through the turnstiles this year, agaipst $45,486.10 in 1930.
