By Eddie Ash Hilgemeier Team Makes It Unanimous a a a Packer Netters Win 50 Games, Lose 1
■pYEBROWS lifted and tongues wagged in local sports circles over the week-end following that post-season basketball upset when the professional Kautsky A. C.s were sent back on their heels and nosed out by the Hilgemeier Packers, of Indianapolis, state independent champs. The Packer victory was by a margin of four points, CO to 26, which is sufficient to indicate the Hilgemeiers were the better cage club in that game. A peek at the Packer record for the 1933-'34 campaign discloses the fact the independent kings were no flash in the pan. Manager Charlie Dorn’s Hilgemeiers won exactly fifty games, counting the triumph over the Kautskys, and against the fifty victories was only one setback. The defeat was by one-point and later the Packers sent that same rival to the cleaners. Manager Dorn is a grocer at Brookville road and Grand avenue, and he obtained financial backing for his team from the Hilgemeier Packing Company. The Packers met all comers on the road and at home, and were kept busy over a long stretch of weeks. The state independent crown was won after a series of tourney play, capped by success in the finals at Crown Point, Ind. The surprising win over the Kautskys, therefore, makes the Hilgemeiers the Hoosier “unanimous” champs. a a a tt tt o THE Cleveland Americans have been advertising for a good left-hander for several years, and have been pinning hopes on Bill Perrin, a youngster they have been grooming at New Orleans. He’s not deemed ready as yet, but Cleveland hasn’t given up on him, for he's been passed over to the Toledo Mud Hens for a season of work in class AA. Wildness seems to be Perrin's baseball sin, and if he can overcome that there'll be a large reception committee in Cleveland waiting to welcome him. Starting with Houston in 1929, Perrin showed ability as a strikeout artist, but he also was very generous with his Annie Oakleys to first base and was walking over 100 batters each year. In 1932 he set the pace in the Southern League by giving 111 bases on balls, and striking out 80. There is encouraging improvement in his 1933 record with New Orleans, for he reversed the figures, passing eighty-four and fanning 101, being one of the five hurlers to go beyond the century mark in strikeouts. He won thirteen and lost eleven for the Pelicans, showing an earned run average of 3.47. With Frederick of the Blue Ridge League in 1930, Perrin led the loop with 117 strikeouts, but his old failing of wildness took some of the edge off the feat, for he gave 125 batters a free stroll. One of the high spots in Bill’s career was a game pitched against Nashville in 1932. The Vols knocked him out of the box in the first inning of the series opener, collecting six hits before he could retire a man. But the next day. Perrin was right back at them, and pitched a threehit, ten-inning victory over the same club. % tt tt tt tt tt tt PETE DE PAOLO and Lou Moore, two of America’s greatest auto race drivers, are on the high seas en route to Tripoli. They sailed from New York Saturday. Pete and Lou will represent the United States in the Grand National Sweepstakes on May 6. Ernie Olson, wellknown mechanic and automotive engineer, and Howard Snyder, race team manager, are with De Paolo and Moore. Before leaving Indianapolis early last week, Pete said he expected the toughest competition from two German entries. De Paolo stated, “I don't know their names, but I have heard of their cars. It is said their mounts are powered by motors at the rear of the cars and are reported capable of 200 miles an hour on the straightaway. However, we afte not worried, because we are going to race with the best that is in us and I feel that with our fine racing equipment we have more than excellent chance of victory." The Tripoli race is an annual event, run over a ten-mile course for 300 miles. Thirty cars from practically every country of the world will be represented. Pete and Lou will return in time to compete in the 500-mile race here May 30. The former drives a four-wheel drive Miller Special and the latter has a rear-wheel drive Miller Special. tt St tt tt tt tt FIVE sons of Kentucky Derby winners have been entered in this year’s turf classic at Churchill Downs, Louisville, May 5. They are: Count Rae, by Reigh Count, winner in 1928; Omar Khay, by Omar Khayyam, winner in 1917; Ridge Mor, by Morvich, winner in 1922; Vicar, by Flying Ebony, winner in 1925, and Zulu Lad, by Zev, winner in 1923. Only one son ever repeated his sire’s victory in the Derby. That w r as Alan-a-dale, winner in 1902. He was a son of Halma. who popped in there first in 1895. m tt tt tt tt n HORSE fans who like Mata Hari, the Dixiana Farms filly in the 1934 Derby, one of the outstanding "future" favorites, may hestate about placing all of their coin on her because of the filly's "temperament.” ’There were some mean horses among her ancestors which trace back to Hastings, an "ornery critter.” Mata Hari is by Peter Hastings, out of Nettie Hastings by Hastings. On her mother’s side is War Woman, daughter of Man o’ War, who in turn was a grandson of Hastings. Mata Hari gets her bad disposition both ways.

Berringer, Butzberger and Wright pitched for the Indians. Louisville got only six hits, but three were triples and one a double. The Colonels bunched their safeties and tallied three runs in the opening inning and two in the seventh. Rookies Rained Out The first half of the contest was played in a light rain that held attendance down to 450. It rained an hour before game time. The Tribe rookie team that went to Owensboro, Ky., for a game with a semi-pro club was held idle by rain. Boss Killefer accompanied the rookies and returned in time to see the windup of the game here. Rosen opened the game by clipping Berringer for a triple. Simons struck out and Detore walked. Rosen scored when Sherlock muffed Radcliff’s grounder, and Adair tripled to tally Detore and Radcliffe. Berringer threw out Thompson and Funk to end the first inning barrage. No more runs were scored off Berringer and he was relieved by Al Butzberger after the third. The southpaw held the Colonels hitless in the fourth, fifth and sixth and fanned two. In the seventh Red Wright, another rookie, took up the Tribe slab work and struck Funk with a pitched ball. Olivares struck out, but McKain blasted a triple and Funk scored. Rosen was retired by a fly, but Simons produced a single and McKain tallied. It closed the scoring for the afternoon. Washington Makes Throw The Tribe hits were as follows: Sigafoos doubled to left center in the fourth, and singled to left in the ninth; Harper beat out a hit in the second and Washington singled in the sixth. Vernon Washington demonstrated a great throw-* ing arm in the second stanza when he cut down Olivares when the Louisville shortstop tried to go from first to third on a single to deep right. There were some good fielding plays, despite the slow field, and each team made only one error. Manager Killefer called for more batting practice today and the pitchers were notified to be prepared to bear down.
