'JpiIL big field out at Perry stadium is producing the kind of baseball that stands the fans on their ears. The last few games, especially, have been featured by the type of fly chasing that usually is confined to fiction stories of the diamond. Long runs, leaping catches and marvelous throws are getting to be a regular thing as the players realize they have plenty of room to put on the steam and “go get ’em.” Asa result the outfielders are piling up an enormous amount of putouts. From the standpoint of throwing, Chapman and Rosenberg of the Indians have gained the respect of all invading teams and enemy base runners have learned to take no liberties without giving a watchful eye to the sharpshooting.
No Pop Fly Homers A BIG field is the only thing for the demonstration of real baseball, and Indianapolis owns the best park in the league for acreage. Kansas City has an immense plant, but a hill in right and right center makes it runner-up to Perry stadium. A home run here is the true article. The fans like the manner in which Manager Killefer compels his boys to be on the alert and of good wind. He oelieves in the plain steal and isn't bashful about calling for one. Being aware of this, the athletes keep in sound physical condition, for they never know when they will receive the signal to “lift ’em up and put 'em down." a a a Forget About Injuries THE Indians were hustling so hard during their long winning streak they forgot about injuries and kept plugging away. First, Harry Rosenberg crippled a leg and was forced to rest. Johnny Cooney was removed from the mound staff and placed in Rosie's place. At the same time Pete Daglia's rm developed a kink and this further handicapped the mound crew. Last Friday, in the first game of the double-header, Marty Callaghan gave out with a bad leg and Cooney was shifted from left to center and Rosenberg went to left, although still limping. And several days ago Dudley Lee, shortstop, had to take a vacation on account of a strained muscle. Manager Killefer faced a difficult problem, but was helped no end when both Rosenberg and Lee readily agreed to return to action before they were fully recovered.

Four Years of Hard Practice Behind Goodman's Great Triumph in Open
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY l nited Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, June 12.—When a new name is emblazoned across the sport pages, there always is a story behind the price it took to get there. For Johnny Goodman, the little blond Omaha (Neb.) amateur, to win the national golf chamionship. it took four years of hard practice and rigid perseverance. In 1829, Johnny Goodman beat Bobby Jones in the first round of the national amateur championship at Pebble Beach, and his name blazed across the golf horizon lor the first time. But Johnny was years ahead of himself. He wasn’t

Cincy Reds, visited Perry stadium Sunday and watched his 1932 team, the Minneapolis champs, split even with the Indians. Bush finally has grown strong enough after a long illness too feel capable of returning to his post of duty as boss of the Reds and he left for the Queen City today. Ownie said he would not exert himself, but would sit on the bench for a few days until he felt fit to gat out on the coaching lines. His Reds were scheduled to battle the Chicago Cubs in Rhineland this afternoon. It was a long, hard pull for the peppery pilot to beat a combination of flu, pneumonia and pleurisy.

It was the first victory for the southsiders this season. Max Shultz was best for the south side team, turning in a 75. His brother, Clayton Shultz, the professional, tallied a 78.

good enough to beat Jones. It was a fluke victory. But that victory, and his subsequent defeat in the second round helped make him the outstanding amateur golfer in the United States and enabled him to stroke his way to one of golf's greatest titles at North Shore last week. “I wasn’t a good putter when I beat Jones,” said Goodman. “I had a hitch in my stroke. I noticed that Bobby had a smooth, easy stroke and a perfect follow through. I watched him closely and I tried to copy his style. It took me a long time to get that putting stroke down, but I believe I just about have it now.” The failure of the U. S. G. A. to

Apostles Move In for Session With Indians Battling Tribesmen Take On McCann’s Saints Tonight; Sigafoos Stretches Hitting Streak to 31 Games; Logan Trounces Millers in Sunday Finale. BY EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor The Indians dropped three out of five to the champion Millers, but there was bound to be a certain amount of letdown after having their long winning streak cracked and Chief Red Killefer has a hunch his boys have recovered from the reaction and will make it tough for the St. Paul Saints in the new series opening under the lights at Perry stadium tonight at 8:15. It will be another free show 7 for women fans, the first “ladies’ night” of the new week. Emmet McCann, former Tribe manager, has his Apostles running fourth and it s a foregone conclusion he will make a desperate try to put obstacles in the path of his old mates. The Saints moved up from Louisville and were displaced in Coloneltown by the Millers.
Tribe scores over the w 7 eek-end were 4 to 3, Minneapolis, ten innings, Saturday; 5 to 1, Minneapolis in the first tilt Sunday, and 4 to 1, Indianapolis, in the series finale on the Sabbath, with Lefty Logan on the Indian mound. Losing Hoosier hurlers were Thomas on Saturday and Tising on Sunday. The Thomas defeat came in the tenth when Joe Hauser walloped a home run. Stay Close to Leaders Killefer’s pastimers were not pushed very far off the trail of the league-leading Columbus Birds and were right up there today only three games out of first place. Minneapolis is third, three games behind the Indians. It's a sizzling campaign. Frank Sigafoos, the batting sensation of the year in the big minor leagues, kept blasting over the w 7 eek-end and got one hit Saturday night, gving him a record of hitting safely in thirty-one consecutive games. Popular “Siggie” is headed for a new 7 A. A. mark, the current one being thirty-six, which has stood since 1921. Sigafoos also is cracking the bill at a pace of .417, an amazing figure for a regular at mid-June. Wilts After Fine Start Jack Tising started out like a blazing house on the Tribe mound in the first half of the Sunday bargain attraction. He struck out five Millers, then suddenly exploded and fell apart in the third round as the champions got the range and blew 7 him to the sidelines with a four-run attack. Jim Turner went in and pitched dazzling ball, but the Indians couldn’t catch up with <pld Rube Benton, who twisted the pellet for the visitors. The mauling Millers were tamed in the closing struggle and barely escaped a shutout as Bob Logan puzzled them with his left-handed delivery. He was opposed by Murray and Vandenberg, the latter going in after Smith batted for Murray in the eighth. Walk Starts Tribe Rally The game went to the fourth round before a hit w r as made by either team. Harris finally coming through with a single off Logan, only to be erased immediately on a force. In the Tribe half of the fourth the crowd w 7 as entertained with a home rally good for three markers. After one down Cooney drew 7 a pass and Chapman slashed a hit through Norris, putting Cooney on third. Wild cheers greeted Sigafoos as he took his position at bat and he bounced a single over Cohen at second. The ball took a high hop and cleared Cohen's glove w 7 th room to spare and shot to right field, Cooney scoring and Chapman reaching third. Sigafoos advanced on Wingard's out and raced home on Rosenberg's single. In the fifth White poked a double to left, moved up on Logan’s sacrifice and scored on Lee’s fly to Harris. There w 7 as no more Tribe scoring, but there was plenty of ex-

Hildebrand’s Hit in Tenth Gives Cleveland 1-0 Win Over Browns
BY JACK CUDDY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, June 12.—Now that Walter Johnson has taken over the Cleveland helm, baseball followers will watch the club closely for the next month or so, waiting to see whether the Indians step out after the pennant like the Chicago Cubs did last season under Charley Grimm. Consequently, it may have been symbolical or it may have been sheer luck that the Indians went out Sunday, when Johnson officially stepped into Roger Peckinpaugh's shoes, and nosed out St. Louis, 1 to 0, in the tenth inning. Young Oral Hildebrand singled after two were out in the tenth to drive in Joe Vosmik with the winning run. Hildebrand, who received credit for the victory, had replaced Mel Harder on the mound in the first half of the tenth with the bases filled and one out. Chicago replaced Philadelphia at third position in the American League by dividing a twin bill with Detroit, while the Athletics lost to Washington. The Chisox took the opener, 6 to 1, when A1 Simmons drove in all the club's runs with two homers and two singles for a perfect day at bat. Detroit won the night cap, 5 to 3, aided by four Chicago errors. Washington downed Phladelphia, 13 td 6, pounding four flingers for nineteen hits, including Fred Schulte's fifth-inning homer and Goose Goslin's three doubles and a single. Jimmy Foxx hit his season’s fourteenth homer. Three home runs, one by Fred Walker in the eighth, and one each by Lou Gehrig and Ben Chapman in the ninth gave the New York Yankees an 8 to 7 win over Boston, but the Red Sox took the nightcap, 11 to 9, when Smead Jolley made his second homer of the day in the sixth frame with one on. George Pipgras was the losing pitcher in the first game and winner in the second. The leading New York Giants of the National League bowed to the Phillies, 7 to 5, after the Phils made a six-run burst in the second. Johnny Vergez drove in four Giant runs with homers in the second and sixth innings and a single. Tribe Statistics BATTING OF REGULARS AB. H. Pet.

Then Mac said to me, ‘come on kid, let’s play golf from here in.’ Then I settled down and played better, j guess it was a good thing I did or I wouldn't have won the title.” Ralph Guldahl, 22-year-old St. Louis professional and native of Dallas. Tex., made a gallant uphill battle on the last two rounds, shooting a 70-71, and just barely missed tying Goodman for the title. Guldahl, a rangy, round-shouldered Texas, missed a four-foot putt on the eighteenth green which would have enabled him to tie the little Nebraskan. Goodman said today that he had no intention of turning professional.

hits, and in five of the nine rounds he held the visitors hitless. Logan has developed rapidly, after gaining confidence, and Chief Killefer thinks the youngster is destined to become a sensation. Bob especially has been effective since the race grew warm, which indicates he has the necessary courage to perform under fire.
The Chicago Cubs split a doubleheader with Cincinnati. The Reds won the opener, 5 to 4, clicking off four runs in the first frame and another in the fifth. Chicago took the nightcap, 9 to 8, after Larry Benton struck Riggs Stephenson with a pitched ball in the eighth when the bases were loaded, forcing in the winning run.
