By Eddie AsE ‘Hildebrand Day’ Billed Here May 31 m m m .New Big League Ace to ‘Return Home’

JXDIAN APOLIS fans will receive an opportunity to hail their old favorite. Pitcher Oral Hildebrand, in an exhibition game at Perry stadium on the afternoon of May 31 as a result of successful negotiations put through today by Dale Miller. Tribe secretary. The Cleveland Americans have agreed to come to the city on that date, take on Red Killefer’s Indians and permit the new big league sensation, Hildie the Hoosier, to perform a few innings on the mound. Hildebrand beat Washington Thursday in ten innings and it was his sixth consecutive victory of the new season, without a defeat. Three shutouts are included in the marvelous record established by the former Indianapolis and Butler university star. What a start!

Big Boy Is Popular LEVELAN'D has an open dale on May 31 and Toledo has agreed to a postponement with Indianapolis that day. The Tribe will end a series in Columbus on May 30, return to Indianapolis for ‘ Hildebrand day” and then go back east to Toledo for a game with the Hens on June 1. The fact the Tribe is willing to go to a lot of extra traveling expense jumping back and forth between Ohio and Indianapolis indicates the Perry stadium officials believe a ‘ Hildebrand day” will prove one of the greatest baseball features ever staged here. I* is evident Oral is destined to become one of the most famous major league hurlers of all time and on top of that he has “crowd appeal.’ When Hildie was with Indianapolis, and it was his turn to pitch, the gate receipts always took ft healthy jump. a a a Known Over State Hildebrand is “full of background” in these parts. He pitched high school ball at Southport, college ball at Butler, independent ball over the state, nearby and far. and then developed into a star with the Indians. Added to baseball accomplishments, Hildebrand also Was one of th° best basketball players in the state in high school and later gained state and national fame as the crack center for the Butler university five. Oral performed in independent ranks hereabouts on many of the same diamonds on which Chuck Klein played, particularly south of town, on the Bluff road. Klein v. T as active there with the old Keystones and Hildebrand appeared later as a member of the Marion County Greenhouse nine, the Pickle Growers.

Colonels Invade Tribe Park for Night Opener Indians Slated to Battle Bruno Betzel’s Pastimers Under Lights at Perry Stadium This Evening; Hoosiers Drop Finale at Toledo Thursday. The Indians were back in town today after losing three out of five starts on their invasion of Columbus and Toledo and they are scheduled to clash with the Louisville Colonels under the light tonight. The Tribe pastimers have seen so much rain thi sspring they are calling each other admiral and other sea-going names. However, the weather was clearing nicely at noon today and it looks like it will be an elegant evening. “Barnacie Bill" Burwell was acting skipper during the Toledo series and his Indian craft was sunk two times out of three by the Mud Hens. The score of the finale in Toledo Thursday, was 7 to 4, with Steve O’Neill's lads on the long end. Bill Thomas, ace of the Tribe staff, took a thumping and was knocked out in the

sixth inning, Lefty Logan finishing. The Tribe club officials refused to be discouraged by the rain of the early morning today and expect their nocturnal opener to go off without a hitch tonight with action getting under way at 8:15. The playing field at the stadium is in fine shape and the big plant is dolled up and ready to receive the customers. Tonight will be “ladies’ night,” and women will be admitted to the grandstand free, with or without escort, except the “escort” of a dune, ten cents, the tenth part of a dollar, representing government tax. The “free to women” courtesy does not include the bleachers. There will be four games in the Louisville series, one tonight, qne Saturday night and a double header Sunday afternoon. The Columbus Red Birds, league leaders, will be here Monday night, another free game for women. The contest tonight will mark the first 1933 appearance of the Colonels at Perry stadium and the athletes from Derbytown will be in charge of Bruno Betzel, the popular pilot who led Indianapolis to the A. A. pennant and “little world series” title in 1928.
