By Eddie Ash City Pin Ace Used to Star in Baseball mm* Pritchett Spent Many Years in Game
THE old-timers know it. but the younger sports prominents in Indianapolis are unaware of the fact that the city's chief bowler, Jess Pritchett, used to be an expert on the ball field as well at a tenpin demolisher. Jess was an infielder and he saw much service in the little minors, finally landing with the Western League, a strong circuit then. Pritchett played with Lincoln in 1908 and Pueblo in 1909. Later he .joined out with Racine in the Wisconsin-Uli-nois League, in 1910, and the next two years was the idol of the Oshkosh club in the same loop and helped Oshkosh win its first pennant in 1912. Jess was so popular in Badger State baseball that fans used to get up petitions urging him to change his mind when he talked of retiring.
ana W ith Fast Nine at 10. TN other Times sports columns toclay Lefty Lee, Times bowling writer, tells you of Jess Pritchett's history on the alleys and the remarkable run of high scores he has posted over a long stretch of years, locally and nationally. He started in baseball at 16, playing with the Moriarity Indians, fast ■semi-pro nine. In 1902. 'O3, 'O4 he performed with the Indianapolis Dusseldorfers and also In 1904 played three days a week with the Franklin independent team. Jess was a member of the Connersville Grays in 1900, ’O6 and 'O7, about the best semi-pro club in the state at the time. Tn other seasons, Pritchetts baseball activities were as follows: 1913, 'l4 and 'ls, managed Peru Grays; 1916, with Kokomo Red Sox; 1917, managed Peru Grays again and then retired. tt tt tt Soup Line Fight Show JIMMIE MLEMORE, Indianapolis promoter, announces he has relinquished all claims as the champion payoff man in Iloosier sports events, a title some critics had handed to him at times during the depression. News comes to Jimmie of a boxing show, held at Muncie, tn which Tennessee Lee fought the main event with Buzz Groggs. It was advertised as a charity 1 show. There were ten fighters on the card, and all were on a percentage, the percentage to be apportioned among the boys after SSO "ring expenses" were deducted. The show drew gross gate of $49.50. half a buck less than the ‘‘ring expenses.” Tom Musser, who had two boys on the card, said his boys declared they intended lighting their way into the soup line, which, according to the advertising, was to benefit by the show. . tt tt tt IT may be claimed by some ring tsatisticians that Rosy (Kid) Baker. who was reported to have fought for nothing, when Kid Slaughter got S3OO dollars for defeating him in Indianapolis last month, might contest the low-pay title, but Promoter McLemore declares he gave Baker $5 out of his own pocket.

A home-town boy may make good at Indianapolis Motor Speedway on May 30. when crack pilots and highgeared racing gears tangle in the annual 500-mile classic of speed. Five local drivers have been named to handle mounts in the long grind—Wild Bill Cummings, Howdy Wilcox. Louis Schneider. L. L Corum and Paul Butler. There are others who will be in the lists, including Wilbur Shaw, who probably will be seated behind the wheel of Leon Duray's new job. Shaw is a sure starter. Cummings, a favorite of the fans, who plans to "warm-up" in a race at Langhorn (Pa.) Saturday, took his first ride of the year over the bricks in his Boyle Valve Special, which was unloaded at the track Thursday. It was the car which Lou Moore ra<Td into the pole position in the 19M2 trials at an average above 117 miles an hour. Bill didn't try any speed Thursday. A familiar lace returned to the speedway after a short absence when L L. (Slim* Corum, who shared victory with the late Joe Boyer in 1924. made his debut as a member of the Studebaker team.

a tt a i Skyride Stunt Vetoed J. LOUIS COMISKEY, owner of the Chicago White Sox. decided none of his ball players would be permitted to catch a baseball traveling at a speed of 145.88 miles per hour. Comiskey’s decision forstalled the stunt scheduled for today, in which three Sox players were going to attempt to catch balls dropped from the 628-foot Skyride tower. Ted Lyons of the Sox hurling - staff, was scheduled to drop the balls from the tower, and Jimmy Dykes. A1 Simmons and Frank Grube were to catch the flying missiles. Mathematicians calculated the pellets would be moving at a speed of 145.38 miles per hour and would i strike with an impact of 60.7 foot pounds. LARRY GOETZ, American Association umpire, who went on the sick list opening day this year, will return to the harness next week. He had been assigned to the Indianapolis lid lifter. Ben Tincup, former A. A. pitcher, has lost his job as A. A. umpire. Prexy Hickey said Tincup was short of experience for double A duty. tt tt tt Answer to party inquiring for Jimy Scanlon, old-time local Atkins star and former Western Leaguer— Scanlon is a resident of New York and is in business, transferring there after living in Chicago for a number of years. tt o tt Description of the $25,000 Preakness stakes will be broadcast Saturday from the Pimlico race track in Maryland over the WABCColunibia network. The time has been estimated as from 3 to 3:30 p m. central time. The Preakness is run over a distance of one and three-sixteenths miles and a classy field is entered, including turf stars which competed in the Kentucky Derby, Ted Husing and Thomas Bryan George will alternate at the microphone. TED SULLIVAN, Indianapolis sportsman and state boxing inspector. has announced he has no connection with organizing a baseball party to go to Cincinnati on May 21 for "Chuck Klein day.” Ted may be there, 'out not as a party organizer, he says.

Champion Here for Tilt With Indians Rtith, Gehrig and Other Famous Major Pastimers Show Wares at Perry Stadium Today: Babe and Kingard Slated to Work on Slab. Joe McCarthy's champion New York Yankees, "runners-up" for the time being in the new American League chase, invaded Indianapolis today for an exhibition tilt with Red Killefer’s Indians at Perry stadium. The nine of Ruth, Gehrig and Cos., generally known as Horsehide Thumpers Inc., were rained out in Chicago Thursday and during their enforced idleness the Cleveland Indians subdued Boston and sneaked into the league lead, leaving the Yankees somewhat puzzled over what those experts meant during the winter when they said the McCarthy gang would have the pennant sewed up by July 4. The Yankees now are determined to indulge in more batting practice than ever and fans attending the exhibition here today- were expected to see the world champs doing their chores in hustling fashion. The contest was to get under way at 3:15 and tonight the Yanks will depart for St. Louis and the Indians will start another road trip, leaving for Columbus.

Ernie Wingard was to start on the Tribe mound and Babe Ruth was slated to pitch one or more innings for the big leaguers. The Indians were due to reach the j stadium at about 1:45 and the Yankees were to be permitted to i take batting practice first. The Tribesmen were to leave their train at the Sixteenth street crossing of the Big Four, near the Speedway, and hustle to the ball park in autos. TRIBE SHUT OUT Apostle Hurler Holds Tribe to Three Blows; Paschal Hits Horner. By Times Special ST. PAUL, May 12.—Les Munns. Apostle righthander, backed by ; brilliant support, held the Indians to three hits here Thursday in the series finale and registered a shutout, 2 to 0. Lefty Bob Logan turned in a fine job of hurling for the Hoosiers, but it was wasted as Munns stayed at the peak of form and kept , the Tribesmen off the bases. Only one Indian got as far as | second, and an infield miscue put | him there. Munns issued one walk | an d fanned two. Logan issued no j passes and struck out one. In the second inning Ben Paschal j connected for a home run with the sacks empty and in the fifth, with one out, Munns beat out an infield hit, was sacrificed to second and scored on a Jeffries single to right. That was all of the scoring. The contest sparkled with sharp and sensational fielding by both teams. Only two games were played in the series and were divided.

Sears, Hornbostel to Tangle on Cinders
Ray Sears’ long-awaited chance to toe the mark with Charles Hornbostel. Indiana U. ace runner, will materialize Saturday afternoon at Bloomington when Coach "Flip” Phillips takes his Butler cinder squad to oppose the Big Ten champions at Bloomington. For the last two years the track careers of Sears and Hornbostel have been parallel, and Butler fans have been firm in their contention that the Greencastle greyhound would be a match for the Hoosier flyer. It is probable that the two men will meet in the mile run. Hornbostel coverel the four-lap distance last week in 4:15.1 while Sears’ best time in the distance is slightly under that mark. Hornbostel is regarded as the dean of collegiate half-milers, however, and it is possible that the local collegian will have to compete in that
