By Eddie Ash It*s Not AH Gravy at Training Camps m m m Well, Then, Try a “Sizzling Tenderloin”

I?VANSVILLE, Jnd., April 12.—The regulars and the rookies who jro to a spring training baseball ramp and write letters home complaining about the bill of fare in the food league not always are wronjr. Regardless of how tough some of the athletes seem to be, they are boys under the skin when it comes to the victuals on the table. For example, this writer landed in Evansville late yesterday, along with Dick Miller, The Indianapolis Times sports photographer, and after a short session with Manager Red Killifer of the Indians everybody went in search of an evening meal. The menu offered “sizzling tenderloins,” as one choice, and the weather was cold and windy. ‘Sizzling tenderloins” were ordered. Only the gravy sizzled. The steak was merely a blunt instrument. The Indians had been defeated in the afternoon by a lopsided score at the hands of the Cincinnati Red Colts and the chef evidently had backed the Hoosiers and substituted old shoes to get even. However, unless the Tribe pa.stimers begin to look like a Class AA baseball team shortly, a little raw meat served a couple of times a day may be prescribed. ana ana THE weather turned against the Indians yesterday and a brisky, chilly wind brought, bark memories of winter. For the Hoosiers gone are the days of sun tan and bathing beaches in Florida, and training this spring is all work and very little play. The depression brought on the pressure in th" minor leagues and the pastimers seem to realize that the old fun of spring is over except in the majors. Training in Indiana is hard to take for som" of the boys who the winter in Florida and California. Instead of going south or west to work out, they came out, of a warm climate to dig in and trust to luck on weather. It's possible, therefore, that a few of th** veterans on the Indian roster are holding back a little, waiting until they feel safe in cutting loose. Bosse field in Evansville yesterday was an ice plant as the wind whistled, with the few fans on hand huddled here and there in heavy coats. After all. the Indians may get a break. It may be cold in Toledo on April 17 when they open the season, and in that event the Mud Hens may be frozen in their dugout. The Hens trained in Orange, Tex. ana a a a nnHE Indians will pass through Indianapolis next Monday night on A their way to Toledo. They merely will leave one train and board another, consuming only about five minutes. Walter Riley, Tribe secretary, and Ted MrGrew. former National League umpire, left Evansville for Indianapolis last night. McGrew umpired the exhibitions here and yesterday Riley returned home to help prepare for the Indianapolis home opening on April 24. McGrew returned to search for a stove. He was trembling back of the plate yesterday. Dale Miller, assistant Tribe secretary, will remain with the team here and cut off at Indianapolis to help along opening day arrangements. Dale jumps from basketball to baseball and takes it in stride. Jimmy Williams, Cincinnati scout, who is in charge of the Cincv Red Colts used to play second base for Minneapolis in the long ago, when the late Pongo Joe Cantillon bossed the club. Red Killefer also is a Miller of the ancient days. The Indians would like to have Joe Morrissey, who is playing with the Cincy Colts. A lot of other clubs also could use him. He went from St. Paul a couple of years ago. and there is no spot open for him now with the Cincy Red first team. Sparky Adams, the veteran midget third sacker, is the field manager of the Queen City second team. a a a a a a IF confidence is all that is needed for the job. A1 Niemic is the *1934 third baseman for Kansas City. The former Holy Cross star who played three seasons of great ball under Coach Jack Barry, is sold on himself and his ability. Last season Niemic played with Reading under option from the Boston Red Sox. who have shipped him to the Blues tor the coming race. Manager Bueky Harris was so impressed with the boy that he advised a class AA berth for him, rather than a return to Reading for the summer, in the NYP League. Niemic was the top third baseman of the loop with a .971 average. He was in fifteen double plays. Jack Barry, the old Athletic hot corner artist and coach at Holy Cross, had nothing but praise for Niemic. “During 1932 and 1933 he was the best college third baseman in the country.” said Barry, when he turned the boy over to his old team-mate, Eddie Collins. a a a ana SOME time ago The Times was requested by "Hoosier Fan” to learn when and where the first night baseball game was played. It’s a difficult question to answ'er, The first night game of modern baseball was staged in Independence. Kan., in 1929 or 1930. Des Moines claimed this distinction in 1930. but, Independence seems to have been first with modern illumination. Night games were played in the long ago. how’ever. but were unsuccessful. One veteran major league scout said he played night ball up around Boston when he w'as a young man. He stated that the experiment was short lived.

Attack of Fighting Cocks Is Swift, Savage and to the Death

BY HENRY MLEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent POMEWHERE IN NEW YORK STATE. April 12.—The smoke becomes denser. The fumes of tobacco and perspiration seem to condense and pour down the dingy walls like a miasmic vapor. The little porridge bowl arena in which 400 so-called humans—now something less than human and something more than demnoaeal—are jammed together in an obscene mixture of passion and greed, becomes an inferno. The cocking main is on. The sleek red rooster wilh the proud yellow ruff about his throat is breast to breast with the big gray fellow. They are levelling as human fighters never levelled, for their very lives are at stake and they know it. Suddenly the gray one springs in the air. For the space that a breath is held he seems to hank motionless, like a helicopter, over the head of his enemy. There is a silver flash as the gray fellow strikes. It is so fast and wicked that it seems to stab your own eyeballs.

Indians Fall Again Before Cincinnati Colts

Killefer Solves Sigafoos Puzzle by Planting Him Permanently on Second Queen City Second Team Raps Two Tribe Hurlers for Sixteen Hits, Two of Them Homers: Cooney May Go to First Base for Indians. BY EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor EVANSVILLE, Ind., April 12.—Frank Sigafoos. the leading hitter of the American Association in 1933. was back at, his old station, second base, yesterday when the Indians of Red Killefer opposed the Cincinnati Colts in the second of a six-game series. The Hoosiers were bumped off again 15 to 6, giving them a perfect cipher in the spring training exhibition standing, but the defeats are not the big item that is giving Manager Killefer the early April insomnia. The Sigafoos puzzle bothered Killefer until yesterday, when he solved it by sending the .370 hitter to the keystone sack to stay. The Tribe chief tried “Siggie” at third base and he tried him in the outfield. But the player disliked the experiments and still hankered for second. He is too valuable as a hitter to use in a spot that gripes him and therefore, regardless of his know'n weakness on double plays, Sigafoos will be at second.

April 12.—The nation's hundred best amateur wrestlers will be here tomorrow and Saturday for the. National A. A. U. title competition at lowa State college. Colleges, universities and athletic clubs will send their best mat artists to compete for the national titles, and the Olympic wrestling committee wil hold a preliminary discussion on material for the 1936 games Widest interest is expected to revolve around the 135-pound class, in which four nationally-prominent matmen will compete. They are Wayne Martin, Oklahoma, Big Six and national collegiate champion; Roland Lillie, lowa State college; Francis Millard, Providence, R. 1., New England A. A. U. titlist, and Zig Letowt, of the New York A. C., Metropolitan A. A. U. champion. Among other stellar performers are Rex Perry, Oklahoma Aggies, national collegiate 118-pound titlist; Ross Flood. Oklahoma Aggies’ undefeated collegiate 126-pound chamoior., and Henry Rondeau. New York, in the heavyweight class.

The referee said “Fast in the throat!” The cocks are quiet, and you can really see them for the first time since the fight began. The gray one. his right spur sunk deep in his rival’s neck, stands awkwardly over his adversary. His feathers, so smooth a minute ago, are wildly disordered and his breast is streaking with blood. Red in crimson down to his wings, and his eyes have a wild glint. B B M THE birds are parted, and their handlers quickly pick them up as the referee counts tolling: “Oneuh. two-uh. three-uh, four-uh...” Racing against the referee's: “Ten-uh. when fighting must be resumed, the handlers worked over their charges like a second over a prize fighter. Feathers were smoothed. Gaffs were adjusted. And. as a final touch, the blood suekpd away from the chickens’ heads. They were released and waged another terrific struggle all over the pit, with the gray one gaining a rest by hooking Red in the head. Seven times more they went at it. with Red getting weaker and weaker.

INDIANAPOLIS, THURSDAY, APRIL 12, 1934

This move sent Fred Bedore to his old berth at third base yesterday and. although he w'as rather aw-kward in the field, he felt so enthused over getting his job back that he blasted out a triple, double and single. Sigafoos also took on a cheerful attitude and poled out two singles and stole a base. Siggie said: “I’m going to show' the w'orld I’m a good second sacker if I have to hit .400 to prove it.” Is Ernie Wingard Through? Another position giving Manager Killefer a headache is first base, w’here Ernie Wingard is operating. The veteran Ernie apparently has reached the end of the string w'ith the Indians. He fell ofF in batting last year and his fielding was far below' Class A A standard. The guess now' is that Jimmy Cooney will be brought in from the outfield and stationed at first base The Cincinnati second team garnered sixteen hits to eleven for the Indians yesterday, and the errors w'ere two for the W'inners and four for the Tribe. Stewart Bolen and Ed Berringer pitched for the Indians, and the former looked good. Bolen twirled five innings, and although six runs w'ere scored against him he was handicapped by poor support. Bach cracked a home run off Bolen and Blakely hit one off Berringer. The young right-hander w'as solved for ten hits and nine runs. Shevlin Still Is Frail Sheriff Blake and young Evans divided the mound duties for the Cincy Colts. There w'as consolation for the Indians in the fact that they got eight blows and five runs off Blake, a veteran campaigner. Jimmy Shevlin, the first sacker signed as a free agent by the Indians, will not join the Tribe until after Sunday—if at all. He is frail and hardly physically fit to stand up under a hard drive. He is playing with the Cincy Colts and is doing well enough at the plate, but there is no w'eight on his frame. The youth looks too slender to stay in baseball and battle the heat of summer. This writer’s prediction on the Indian’s infield and outfield lineup at Toledo next Tuesday follows: Cooney, first: Sigafoos, second; Bedore, third: Lee, short; Rosenberg, left field; Cotelle, center field, and Washington, right field. It will be either Sprinz or Riddle back of the plate, with the mound assignment yet to be determined.

Two World’s Records Go in Women’s Swim Meet

BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. April 12.—With two world's records already swept off the books and a champion dethroned, swimmers in the national senior women's A. A. U. swimming and diving championships will continue tonight their assault on time and titleholders in the second night’s events. The three events on tonight’s program are the 100-yard breast stroke, low board diving and the 400-yard relay. .Katherine Rawls. 16-year-old Miami Beach (Fla.) schoolgirl, is the defending champion in the diving. Margaret Hoffman. Scranton (Pa.) champion, in the 100-yard breast stroke, will not defend her title. Washington A. C. of Seattle will defend its title in the relay against the New York Wome i’s Swimming Association; Carnegie Library Club. Homestead, Pa., and two teams from the Lake Shore A. C., Chicago. Miss Rawls, weighing only 105 pounds, dripping wet, and Jack Medica, 19-year-old University of Washington sophomore, carried off the major laurels last night when they smashed world’s records. The trim little Miami girl shattered her own national and American record when she successfully defended her title in the 300-yard individual medley event (breast stroke, back stroke and free style). Her time was 4:12.2. two-tenths of a second better than her former world's mark. In an exhibition, Medica swam to

flurry. A cyclone of feathers and fury. Red teetered on his game leg and lashed out with his good one. It was a mortal stab. The silver gaff, driven by the last ounce of Red's strength, drove straight into the brain of the gray rooster. The gray one, crazy as a loon from the blow, thrashed wildly about the pit, beating his feathers against the fence in a vain effort to fly. Then he dropped over dead.

card in the Armory next Tuesday night. Frank Speer, the Atlanta (Ga.) mat ace. will be pitted against Tom (Bad Wolf) Martin, the powerful Oklahoma Indian, in a main event for two out of three falls. The tw'o rough and tumble heavyweights staged a minor riot of the back-alley variety in the Armory ring a few' weeks ago. going thirty minutes to a draw without a fall. Both Speef, w'ho balances the scales at 230 pounds, and Marvin, who W'eighs 212, are ring roughnecks. Speer was an All-America football player at Georgia Tech not many years ago, and since his gridiron days has risen to be one of the foremost heavyweight grapplers below' the Mason-Dixon line. Despite the eighteen - pound weight advantage, Marvin gave Speer plenty of opposition in their first meeting, using his fists w'ith regularity to even matters when Speer's ring tactics w'ere extra rough—and for the first time in many a w'eek the ringside fans cheered the Bad Wolf of the Oklahoma plains.

C.

anew world's record of 4:43.2 in the 400-meter free style events Anew champion was crowned in the 100-yard free style when Olive McKean, 18-year-old Seattle girl, swimming for the Washington A. C., beat the defending titleholder, Lenore Kight, Carnegie Library Club, Homestead, Pa., by inches, in 1:03.4, tying the meet mark. The 100-vard free style produced the most exciting race of the night, with Miss McKean leading all the way, but just barely lasting in the final lap to stave off a gallant bid for victory by Miss Kight. Helen Lee Smith, Indianapolis swimming star, was under a trainer's care today after a knee injury suffered several weeks ago became troublesome and prevented her from entering the events here last night. She was one of the favorites on the free style. The injury forced her to drop out of the 300-yard medley. It is doubtful whether she will be able to compete for some time.
