By Eddie Ash It’s True Hildie Is Real Chatterbox m m m Oral Owns That Thing Called “Color”

JOE WILLIAMS wrote of the talkative Oral Hildebrand and informed Indianapolis fans that their former Hoosier hero has developed into a chatterbox out there on the mound as he “ribs” opposing hitters. Well, when a hurler wins six games and loses one, and that defeat didn’t occur until “Along Came Ruth,” he is entitled to pop off if he chooses. Anyway, Indianapolis fans know Hildie is quiet spoken off the field and they are convinced he has many more victories in his system for the Cleveland Americans. Oral began taking on “color" the past winter when he announced himself as a holdout despite the fact he still was in the rookie class. Moreover, he got away with it, and received a ! letter tontract, it was reported. The big- league experts will understand his “color” qualities when they learn he does everything lefthanded except pitch and bat.

u tt a Pans Schulte and Travis 'T'HE last visit of Cleveland to 1. Washington brought to the surface the fact that Hildebrand is wired for sound. He defeated the Senators with ease and received additional enjoyment out of the triumph by making sharp digs at the home players. In one inning outfielder Fred Schulte got. a pop single over first base, one of those lucky blows the athletes call a "bleeder” or "handle” nit Hildi'* walked over to first with this: "Why don’t you hit the ball hard enough for us to catch it?" In another inning Cecil Travis, a rookie who had been filling it sensationally for the injured Ossie Bluege, slashed the ball to Morgan. Cleveland first baseman who failed to hold it. Again Oral walked over to first, and with this: "You've been pretty hot breaking in around here (Hildie himself broke in the majors only last year) but you get no more hits this afternoon.” Oral made good his boast. Travis rolled twice to Hildebrand thereafter and struck out his last time. a a a Wins as He Works A TELEGRAPH operator was escorted out of Chicago Washington park race track Wednesday. His escort was a police officer, but he was not under arrest. Joe Moneguin, the dot and dash artist, hit the daily double and won $1,021, holding two of the eleven winning tickets out on My Kind and Lady of Grace. Being Chicago wise, Joe called a cop to accompany him home. He is an operator at the track and was working when his bangtails came through, making his day’s labor a right smart pleasure.

Orates to Sewell TN another inning, with Buddy *■ Myer on first. Hildie got the signal for a pitchout to break up an anticipated hit-and-run play. Catcher Roy Spenrer stepped out of position to get the pitch, but Luke Sewell threw his bat at the ball and popped it into right field for another of those Texas league ; singles. Again Hildebrand tripped to first, and with this: "You were lucky, Luke, but 111 have you throwing that bat away for good before the summer is over." tt tt tt Steel Headgear for Shaw WHEN Wilbur Shaw climbe® into his Mallory Special to take the qualifying test at the 500mile track Thursday the railbirds ; listened for guns to roar. Shaw and his mechanic donned steel helmets of war-like make appearance and after thinking the matter over the onlookers decided Wilbur was smart. The headgear is known as a British pith helmet and Shaw fiugres it might come in handy “in case." A speed pilot never knows when he is going to be sent flying through space to light head first on brides or against concrete walls. Anything to avoid a cracked skull, is Wilbur's idea. In some accidents pilots and mechanics are sent spinning and rolling and a steel protection of the -‘motorcycle crash” type worn by Shaw looks like important equioment in the business of defying death on the roaring way.

Shaw, A1 Miller Gain Places in 4 500‘ Field Local Pilot Turns in 115.497 Miles an Hour to Qualify Leon Ouray's Car: Speed Gardner Injured in Spectacular Crash: Trials Continue. BY NORMAN E. ISAACS Twenty-five of the forty-two places in the starting lineup for the 500-mile race Tuesday were filled today, and qualification trials were scheduled to continue from 4 to 7 this afternoon, Saturday and Sunday. Two more drivers qualified their mounts late Thursday before activities ended with the crash which brought serious injury to William H, (Speed) Gardner, driver of the Allegheny Metal Special, and severe shock to his riding mechanic. Charles Schneider of Trufford, Pa. The two new qualifiers are Wilbur Shaw of Indianapolis in Leon Duray's Mallory Special, and A1 Miller in Buddy Marr's Hudsonmotored Marr Special. Shaw qualified at 115.497 miles an hour and Miller at 109.799 miles an hour.

The afternoon started with Shaw going out promptly at 4, completing one lap at 112.754 miles an hour and then "fading out" on the backstretch when his coil went bad. Petillo to Try Again Wilbur was towed to the garage for hurried repairs. Kelly Petillo, in the Yahr-Miller Special, then lock the qualification signal and completed five laps at a speed of 113 miles an hour ana quit. He explained as he came in that his motor registered a loss of 500 revolutions and that he thought he had lost much speed. There was nothing wrong with his automobile and Petillo probably will go today. Sam Palmer, in the R. and W. Cam Special, went out for his qualification run, but before he could take the signal, came in throwing oil all over the speedway. Shaw and Miller then took to the 1 bricks to qualify in order and Gardner went out as Miller was completing his run. He warmed up for one lap, gave the signal on his next and whirled around. Fractures Left Thigh As he came out of the short north straightaway, the car went into a spin, smashing into the inner guard rail and hurling Gardner across the track. The machine continued in! a series of spins and ended up in the middle of. the front stretch, the car badly damaged and Gardner suffering from a fractured left thigh and severe bruises and cuts. Schneider is suffering from shock. Several others are expected to attempt to qualify today, notably Babe Stapp in the Boyle Products Special, and Raoul Riganti in the i Golden Seal Special. The annual Speedway dinner will be hehl next Wednesday night at the Indianapolis Athletic Club at 7. The prizes will be awarded and the "hero” of the raee lauded. A citizens’ committee, headed by Paul O. Richev and Bowman Elder, is in charge of the dinner. Among (he prizes to be awarded will be the L. Strauss &■ Company tronhy to the winner, the Ford ear to the leader at 300 miles, the Prest-O-Lite brick to 'lu> leader at 300 miles, and the Julius Walk sportsmanship award, an eleven-jewel split-second stopwatch.

A ictory in Hen Opener Lifts Indians in Race Base Running and Cooney's Relief Pitching Feature Close Tilt Thursday: ‘Appreciation Night’ Program Set: More Action Under Lights Tonight. BY EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor Red Killefer's Indians climbed into the first division Thursday night, by taking the series opener from the Mud Hens and it was a dandy contest from the standpoint of fan entertainment. The score was 6 to 5 and marked the Tribe's fifth victory in its last seven starts against one defeat and a tie. The teams will battle under the lights again tonight and the grandstand will be free to women. On Saturday night, the windup of the series, the entire grandstand will be thrown open with only one price prevailing, forty cents, first come, first served, to any seat, including boxes and reserved section. There will be no charge for women, not even tax. Fact is, the Federal amusement tax will be waived altogether for the night.

Saturday has been designated as "Appreciation night" and 2,000 unemployed, named by the city madework committee, will occupy the bleachers. No season passes will be honored. It will be the second time this season the unemployed have been guests of the baseball club, but it will be the first time the grandstand has been thrown open to all for the price of a bleacher ticket. Regular prices will be in effect tonight, however. Tribe Steals Seven Times Toledo kept close to the Indians Thursday despite an off-night in throwing by Butch Henline, Hen receiver, who spent a painful evening as the Hoosier pilfered seven bases. It took a run in the seventh inning to put the Tribe over. Dudley Lee led off with an infield hit after one down and stole second as Callaghan fanned. Chapman punched a single to right and Lee scampered home. A Sigafoos single put- Chapman on third, but when a double steal was tried Chapman was called out at the plate on a play that could have been called either way. The Indians opened the game with a run and then went three rounds without seeing first base. They got after Lefty Twogood in the fifth, however, and in the sixth knocked him out, Thornton Lee, another southpaw, relieving. Cooney Rescues Game Jack Tising, Tribe starting hurler, was short of control and he was sent to the showers in the seventh, Johnny Cooney taking up the home slab assignment. Johnny put on the brakes after Sweeney solved him for a double and the Toledo scoring was ended for the night. Hits were eleven for the Indians and ten for the Hens. Galatzer and Sweeney each poled three to safe spots for the visitors, two of Galatzer’s blows being doubles. A three-run rally by the Hens tied up the battle in the first half of the

seventh, but the Indians still had another marker in their systems, and it was enough Two Butler Nutters Win By l vital Pres* RICHMOND, ind .
