The players welcomed Hornsby enthusiastically. Hornsby's first move after greeting the players was to call a closed meeting of the team, at which he let them know he was "boss" and that he expected every player to give his best ior him. Hornsby's managerial motto of "you have to deliver or I'll have to get someone els^' will hold good with the Browns. Hornsby will not tolerate a player who won t hustle and strive to win at ail times. There won't be any immediate changes in the last-place Browns. “I'll just get acquainted with the Players for a few days," said Hornsby. I may not make any changes in the batting order or lineup for sometime. I'm building for next year, and there’ll be no radical changes now. One o fthe few members of the Browns' whom Hornsby knows is Allan Sothorn. coach and acting manager since Bill Killefer's dismissal in Washington recently. Sothoron. who played under Hornsby when Rajah managed the Cardinals in 1926. will be retained as coach Another coach will be added next season. Hornsby sad. ornsby plans to be a playingmanager. but will only u.se himself as pinch hitter and utility fielder, he said Hornsby pointed out that he will not only have to get acquainted with the Browns, whom he has seen in only five games this year, but the enure American League as well.

Overflow Crowd Sees Home-Coming of Tribe More Than 22.000 Jam Stadium as Indians Wallop Colonels: Chapman, Layne, Daglia Shine: Single Tilt Tonight, Double-Header Sunday Carded. BY EDDIE ASH Time* Sport* Editor Red Killefer's Indians were welcomed home in such a big way at Perry stadium Friday night that an attendance record was established for the huge structure and the builder of the stadium. Owner Norman A Perry, found it a difficult matter to find a parking place and seat for himself, tl was "appreciation night'' at the Tribe park and the fans fairly swarmed over the place, overflowing the field and making ground rules necessary. The gate count was announced as 22.153. which included several thousand women and lads and lassies admitted free. The Indian pastimers swelled up to the bursting point when they took a look at the record throng and it was just too bad for the Louisville Colonels, the home nine trouncing the Kentuckians. 9 to 2, with Pete Daglia uncorking a great game on the Tribe mound.
Big Pete blanked the visitors until the ninth and held them to five hits up to the final stanza. Indian - apolLS collected fifteen blows, including seven doubles and a home run. Pete Chapman sent the horsehide soaring out of the park in the eighth with Layne on base. Four Hits for Herman Layne made merry at the expense of his old mates by playing like a race horse runs. He slapped out two .doubles and two singles, scored three runs, batted in one. stole one base and covered left field in brilliant fashion. Herman was released by Louisville a few- weeks ago. Phil Weinert. Colonel southpaw, was knocked out of the box in the fifth round and Claude Jonnard relieved and finished. Phil was touched for ten safties during his stretch. Hits into the crowd on the field went for two bases and there was a long argument in the fifth when Chapman caught a drive by Wanningcr at the rdge of the overflow in left field and backed into the crowd before his • brakes - ' held. At first the umpires called it a twobagger. then changed their ruling and permitted the catch. Manager Bruno Betzel made a long oration of protest, but lost the decision to Red Killefer. Twin Bill on Sabbath Indians and Colonels will battle under the lights again tonight at 8:15, with regular prices prevailing. Forty cents was the rate to the grandstand Friday at the homecoming. It will be fifty cents for women tonight, seventy-five cents for men and forty cents In the bleachers. On Sunday afternoon the teams will clash in a double-header to end the series, first tilt at 2 p. m. The Indians will visit Louisville following the Sabbath games. Pete Chapmans homer Friday cleared the left field wall. The Richmond youth also socked a double and single, scored two markers and batted in three. He was clipped on the hand by a pitched ball in the first and the bruise was painful, but shook it off. stayed in action and went on to fill a feature role. All of the Indians got one or more base hits .but Ernie Wingard had a tough time seeing them. Ernie poled one double, but on his other four trips to the plate struck out. The lanky Indian turned In a good fielding game around the first sack. Many Fans Turn Back Traffic on Indiana avenue and in the south Riverside district became heavy long before game time. The wise fans headed for the stadium early and all seats were taken thrty minutes ahead of the contest. Hundreds of fans milled around the entrance, learned of the record throng inside and turned back to the city. On the field the overflow extended- from the dugouts. down the fowl lines and back of the outfielders around the park. Frank Sigafoos received a merchandise gift of $5 from the Knot Hole Gang and he was extremely proud of it. The lads had planned to make the presentation several weeks ago when rain washed out the "Sigafoos night" game. "Stggie'' said he certainly appreciated the gift, comng from the "little fellows.” 3 JUDGES TO SCORE S ATE FISTIC EVENTS A plan to use three judges for deciding boxing matches in Indiana, relieving referees of scoring duties, will be inaugurated at Tprre Haute Monday night, A1 G.
