By Eddie AsE Proxy of Leading Birds Tagged to Go m m m Situation at Columbus Offers Puzzle
TpiIATS a peculiar situation over at Columbus in the American Association. The Red Birds are leading- the league, they drew an enormous attendance last year and baseball spirit of the old-fashioned type was rekindled in the Buckeye capital. The Birds fell short of winning the pennant in 1933, but finished second and the “big money” was already in the counting house before the team lost out in the flag chase. Now you hear that Larry MacPhail, Red Bird prexy, is going to be let out. The Birds are owned and controlled by the St. Louis Cardinals and it is evident the chain store baseball chiefs are difficult to please.
a a a Clash of ‘Personalities’ T)LRHAPS Prexy McPhail’s “dynamic personality” was played up too much and got under the skin of somebody above him. Branch Rickey, general manager of the Cardinal ‘‘chain,'' also is supposed to possess a “dynamic personality.” Maybe that explains everything. We often have wondered what would happen when a couple of “dynamic personalities” met head-on like a couple of trains on the same track. It is said George M. Trautman, a prominent figure in Columbus sport circles, is slated to succeed MacPhail. However, he seems to know more about golf than professional baseball. Troutman is secretary of the Columbus Chamber of Commerce. tt tt a Mule Meets Mule WHEN the White Sox played in Philadelphia Wednesday the old Athletic mates of outfielder Mule Haas, now with the Sox, presented him with a traveling bag at the home plate. There was much handshaking. Suddenly, and unannounced, while Haas was thanking his old friends for the gift, an unknown party strolled up leading a live mule. The animal was decorated with ribbons and a sign on its back read “Broker’s Tip.” “It’s your mule, Mule,” said the unknown gent. “I don't want it,” Haas shouted. The surprise "gift” agitated Haas and during the game he clashed with Umpire Kolls and got himself banished. tt tt tt Atz Succeeds Holke THE seventh-place Ft. Worth Panthers of the Texas League have anew manager, Jakie Atz. He was appointed Wednesday night by Wade Killefer, succeeding Waller Holke, who at one time was slated to become field chief of the Indianapolis club. Killefer left for Ft. Worth Monday at the request of Norman Perry, Indianapolis owner and part owner of the Ft. Worth franchise. Killefer, who is pilot of the Indians, also is general manager of Indians and Panthers. Jakie Atz is a well-known figure in Texas League baseball and won a string of pennants for Ft. Worth several years ago. He also piloted other clubs in the Lone Star loop.

tt tt a Sox Keystoners Shine ANOTHER thing that is holding up the Chicago White Sox in ! the American League race is the ' brilliant defensive work of Jack Hayes and Luke Appling around the keystone sack. They have supported the pitchers in sensational style. Hayes, at second base, has accepted 131 consecutive chances without a miscue, and Appling, at shortstop, has taken care of 79 straight chances without committing an error. The play of Appling is positively remarkable in view of the fact he was erratic last season ; and fought the ball all over the infield. It’s hard to defeat a club that ! gets fair pitching, a little slugging l and airtight fielding. a a a JOE MOWRY . former Minneapolis fly chaser, hit a triple and sin- ! gle for the Boston Braves Tuesday ; and helped defeat the Cincy Reds. The Redlegs were interested in the former lowa U star at one time. Cincy sports scribes said: "He bats j left-handed and throws the other : way.” They learned Joe also bats | right-handed when he faced a southpaw Wednesday. a a a JOE SAVOLDI told Chicago ring it would require |at least sixty days to get in trim for a return match with Jim Londos, the “stromberry pie and rust bis” wrestling champ. Which indicates Adonis Jim is well respected by Jumping Joe when it comes to body contact inside the ropes. a a a C GREATLY improved was the anFnouncement on the condition of Ownie Bush today and the gritty little chief of the Cincy Reds seems to have whipped to a frazzle the combination of flu, pneumonia and pleurisy. No visitors, however. Not for some time. tt tt tt If the Minneapolis Millers drop pitcher Phil Hensiek many more times he'll fall apart. He’s been up and down so often the young man says he seldom stays long enough in one place to'get his name spelled correctly. It’s usually printed Hensick. V • tt tt tt Wesley Ferrell, Cleveland's crack right-hander of 1932 and previous years, hardly will dare to drive a hard bargain over salary terms next year. There are two reasons—Oral Hildebrand an l Mel Harder.
A triumph ever the title holder would place Wilson in the position of “cleaning up" financially. Londos is recognized as the great- | est box office attraction in wrest- | ling circles and Matchmaker Carter i believes Monday’s show will be witj nessed by a capacity house. Two other bouts, with well-known heavyweights performing, will precede the Londos-Wilson feature, first match at 8:30. Londos will arrive here Sunday and will attend a banquet Sunday evening at the Claypool. given by the Order of A. H. E P. A., a Greek organization, at which Governor Paul V.

Cubs Offer Herman, SIOO,OOO for Klein
Veeck Ready to Dismantle Bruins If Other Clubs Will Trade, Williams Hears; Sox Also in Market for Burns and Earnshaw or Weaver. BY JOE WILLIAMS, New York World-Telegram Sports Editor NEW YORK, May 18.—Report came today from Chicago, the Century of Progress bailiwick, that if President Bill Veeck of the Chicago Cubs cap find enough clubs willing to do business with him, he will tear the whole Bruin works apart. This is an especially unhappy year for the Cubs to slip out of tne picture. For a dozen years, the Chicago Nationals did not have to worry about local competition. The White Sox, felled by the 1919 world series revelations, were reduced to nonetities. But this time the White Sox are interesting, vibrant counter-bidders for Chicago patronage. that the Sox are going to press anybody for the pennant. Given a pitcher like George Earnshaw in his top form, and a first baseman like Jack Burns, of the Browns, and Louis Comiskey's team would make things pretty hot for anybody and everybody. And it isn’t so certain that before June 15 things will not happen to develop the

WITH indications of a letup by the weather man, and sunshine instead of rain, golf club members are looking forward to programs scheduled for Saturday and Sunday. o a a Speedway will be a hotbed of activity on Saturday, when the second annual Indiana High School Athletic Association title tournament will be held. Why this tournament is held on the same day as the state track meet is something for the officials of the state association to answer. The boy who is a good trackman as well as a golfer finds himself trying to compete in both events, if it is possible to play golf and then speed to the track ! carnival at Butler field. ! We know of several boys who can do ! both sports well and because it takes j about four hours for a round of golf, they are up against -a stilt proposition trying to compete in two different places on the same day. We are informed that is what several will attempt to do. tt tt tt The water has receded and Speedway officials are working overtime preparing the east side of the course for the invasion of the high school lads. There will be more i golfers with ideal swings on that course Saturday than there is in an ordinary year and if you are interested in seeing some youthful stars w'ho shoot real golf, drive out to Speedway, Saturday. a a a This week-end will be real silk for | the Avalon members and a medal j handicap tournament permitting entrants | to play 18 holes on either Saturday j or Sunday is on the program. Jack Thibodeau, chairman of the golf j committee and one of the Real Silk Hosiery mills gang which belongs to I the club, has rallied the group together and prizes will be in abundance —all | Real Silk products. tt tt a N 1 EXT Monday, the first proamateur of the season will be ! held at Highland, having been postj poned from last week. Max Ruell 1 hopes for a large turnout at the { opening event, with a reduced entry fee. Instead of a $lO entry fee for each team as in past year, the fee will be $5 this year, with the system of conducting the tournament rotating. a tt Monday, each pro will choose his amateur partner while at the next event, all the names of the amateur players will be placed in a hat and drawn out by the pros. All pro-amateur events w'ill be staged on the best ball score basis and amateurs will be accorded a handicap based on their handicap allowance at the club where they play. Players with handicaps up to four strokes will be given one stroke in pro amateur events, and this will be deducted from the best ball total. Players with handicaps ranging from 6-10 will get two strokes and plavers with handicaps from 10-14 will be allowed three strokes. Those between 14 and 18 will get four strokes while the maximum allowance of five strokes will go to players with club handicaps over 18. H a a The Lawrence township band will benefit from the entire proceeds of a golf match scheduled for next Sunday at Ft. Harrison course, with Bill Heinlein, forr mer state amateur champion: Happy Alyea, Indian Lake pro: Fred Keesling. Fortville pro and Ralph S'onehouse, Coffin course pro,, as the contestants. Major T.

situation. But right now the White Sox are intriguing the Chicago customers — those of the north as well as the south side. It is a critical situation for the Cubs, and they are confronted with the necessity of doing something to counteract the Simmons, Haas and Dykes deal at Comiskey park.
Herman Under Fire
Chicago fans are concentrating their ire on Babe Herman, who cost $75,000 in real money. When Proxy Veeck bought Herman from the Reds, the north side pictured Babe as a successor to Wilson of the Hackian heyday. But Herman has not clicked. Usually he hits well in the spring.! But this seems to be a strange sort i of year. Asa result, I hear that Veeck would ship Herman and SIOO,OOO to the Phillies for Chuck Klein, even if Chuck did hit only .226 away from the Philadelphia park last season. Sox Watch Weaver In the meantime, the White Sox have been watching Jim Weaver, Newark pitcher, who has won eight in a row and seems to have improved tremendously since he left the Yankees. The Sox need another righthander badly and the chances are that if they can not buy the American Leaguer they are after, Weaver will move to Comiskey park. There have been many inquiries also about Jack Saltzgaver, second sacker of the Newark Bears, who is hitting somewhere near .390 Colonel Jacob Ruppert is not interested in propositions for Saltzgaver however, who is destined to star for the Yankees. Nor. can anybody have Red Rolfe, the Newark shortstop.
Horse Sense

LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 18.— Charley Corbett, contract rider for the Jack Howard and the Coldstream stud stables, earned away most of the honors on Wednesday’s card when he kicked three winners past the judges’ stand. The long-shot honors were also among the three, being Panther Rock, which paid off to the tune of $128.90. Charley is now in a position to give chase to the leading jock of the meet. Jack Westrope. a a a Speaking of jocks, the best young riding talent available will lock horns at the Washington park meet. Lee Humphries, sensation of the past winter at the western tracks, will be there under colors of Mrs. R.

George South and the Ffisher boys, all at Churchill Downs at present. tt tt tt There has not been a disqualification at this meet as yet.

Local Pilots in Battle for Pole
lllF --
Howdy Wilcox
BY NORMAN E. ISAACS
The annual battle of speed for the coveted pole position in the qualification trials for the Indianapolis 500-mile race apparently lies between six drivers, and the whole sextet will take their runs on Saturday, first day of the time trials, they indicated today. The six are Ernie Triplet, Bill Cummings, Frank Brisko, Lou Moore, Howdy Wilcox and an ‘‘unnamed’' pilot, perhaps the famous Billy Arnold, despite the fact he has not yet appeared at the track. Triplett, driving Bill White’s beautiful new four-cylindered Miller, has turned in the fastest lap of the season—a 120-mile-an-hour circuit. It was anew record for the two-man machines. They say at the track that Ernie even may uncork 122 miles an hour, if needed. But for the ten-lap qualification run, Ernie’s average more likely
will be around 119, at the top. Brisko. seated in a four-wheel drive Miller, is said to have the fastest car ever shown at the speed plant. He has done 119 miles an hour, and is known to hanker for a new track record for one lap around 125 miles an hour, a mile an hour faster than Leon Duray’s record trip of 124.018. But the Milwaukee garage owner may change his mind about extrahigh speed. He thinks he can qualify easily at 117. That means he probably will squeeze on a little more juice and go after the pole. Howdy Wilcox in his Gilmore Special has been turning laps at 117. He may eke out another mile, or so. That puts Howdy in the running for a front-row position. Bill Cummings is driving a Boyle Valve, the same car which Lou Moore took to the pole last year. Railbirds have an idea the Indianapolis speedsters can drag another mile an hour out of the buggy. That would put Bill’s top somewhere near 119, and makes him a hearty threat for the pole post. Lou Moore is driving Hank Maley's Foreman Axle Special, another four-cylindered Miller. The motor Is new and Lou, regarded as a crackerjack “money driver,” may pop up | with a surprise or two. “It’s the fastest car on the track.” ! said his mechanics today. Many lean to the idea they’re right. But on the other hand, there’s Harry Hartz’ four-cylinder Miller. It’s whispered that Harry wants Billy Arnold to drive it. Arnold, ’tis said, is working for a large automobile manufacturing concern, which isn’t very particular about his taking part In any more automobile races. The speed bug may get Billy, though, and he might amble in around Saturday, looking for Hartz and a pair of goggles. That would make it a swell day all around. a rt a Major W. P. Carpenter, in charge of the i guard at the Speedway, today requested The Times to announce that he desires to communicate with any radio amateur with a short-wave set and also with owners of motorcycles with side cars. Major Carpenter’s phone number is Belmont 3070. 12 Grapplers Mix Friday # Marion Mackey of Columbus, 0.. has been signed to meet Ed Baker of this city in one of the supporting bouts on the “family night” six bout mat show to be presented at the Armory Friday.

Tribe to Return Home Friday for Night Tilt Indians Wind Up Series at Toledo Today: Hens Pound . Daglia for Seven Runs in Three Innings Wednesday and Hoosiers Lose. By Times s per ini TOLEDO. May 18—Whereas Acting Manager Bill Burwell made the right guesses on Tuesday and the Indians won. he slumped in managerial judgment on Wednesday and the Indians lost. 7to 4. The Tribesmen and Mud Hens were to clash in the third and last tilt of the senes .oday and the Hoosiers will leave tonight for Indianapolis to inaugurate night baseball Friday, playing Louisville. The Hens got to Pete Daglia for seven markers over a three-inning stretch Wednesday, but he was permitted to remain on the mound and the Hen run total was too great for the Indians to overcome when thev finally broke loose and tallied four times in the eighth. Daglia was combed for eleven hits and he also issued six walks.
Lefty Forrest Twogood had the Tribesmen eating out of his paw for seven rounds, shutting them out, but in the eighth he weakened under the strain and was knocked out of the box. He received credit for the game, however. Monte Pearson relieved the Hen left-hander and put on the brakes, allowing one hit in 1 1-3 innings. The Tribe hit total was seven. Dudley Lee getting two, one a double. Bill Sweeney pounded Daglia for three blows and led the Toledo attack. He also stole two bases. The Hens bunched eight of their eleven safeties in the fourth, fifth and sixth frames, when they scored all of their runs, and it was rath°r surprising that he was left in the box. Wildness also helped put the Indians’ big right-hander in hot water. NIGHT OPENING FRIDAY Indians and Colonels to Rattle Under Lights at Stadium. Lights, please!
