THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES
apolis Canoe Club, located at West Thirtieth street, in Riverside park. Lower Center—Amos Rusie was the Indianapolis baseball pitching hero of the late eighties, when the ball park was located where the Methodist hospital now stands. He threw a terrific fast ball, and later graduated to the New York Nationals where he received national acclaim. Lower Right—Chuck Wiggins, the Indianapolis prize fighter, in the days before he was the Hoosier Playboy. When Wiggins was in his youth and at the peak of form, he was a master boxer, clever ring general, and a difficult foe to find with a punch. Wiggins once toured Australia, and although only a middleweight at the time, he defeated the Australian heavyweight champion, and was successful in other battles on the other side of the world. The Chuck in the picture is only about one-half of the retired Hoosier mauler’s dimensions of today.

"You are still free in America," she said. ‘‘You are free tc come here and listen to me with no army of police descending on you. They won’t drive you out for subversive activities because of it.

New Albany, acting commission chairman, will remain in charge, the Governor said. He stressed the point that this arrangement was agreeable with Mr. Adams, who "wants to get his strength back.” The continuance of Mr. Stotsenburg in me chairmanship revived the reports of several months ago that Mr. Adams and the Governor were not seeing eye to eye on both commission and political affairs. That relations are strained was denied by the Governor’s office. Mr. Adams, who is a banker and publisher, was one of the speakers at the opening of the senatorial campaign of R. Earl Peters at Ft. Wayne. Mr. Peters, former state chairman, and Governor McNutt are at loggerheads. Several weeks ago Mr. Adams went to Florida for a winter vacation. Since his return he has been in the hospital, having been stricken on the train en route here. Third commission member is John Wheeler. Crown Point, a “McNutt Republican."
