By Eddie Ash Horsemen Prosper as Dogmen Hit Rocks m m m Lew Fonseca Tells of Tigers’ Speed

'T'HE country has “horse race crazy.” There are so many tracks now a horse shortage is felt and at some meets the officials have a difficult time filling their entries twenty-four hours in advance. A dozen or more new and elaborate plants have been built to stable the thoroughbreds and to provide patrons with opportunities to see the equines gallop. Numerous state legislatures have made horse racing “sport” and dog racing “gambling.” It would see, that a race is a race, no matter what the animal used for the entertainment. The plight of greyhound owners and followers is no better than it was three or four years ago. Expensive dog tracks remain idle in many states as the law remains firm. Meanwhile, dogmen continue to exist as they always have—in the money here and stranded there, and in most places at the mercy of the sheriff. • a a a a a DOGMEN have been charged with every evil In the racing book. There have been derogatory remarks about the element that trails the canines. Yet it is significant that doc racing became pure long before i orse racing. Recently Carleton F. Burks, famous poloist, breeder of fast jKimes, and head of the newly formed California racing board, inaugurated the widely discussed receiving barn for horses. Horses are p aced in this barn under strict surveillance an hour before the race in v hich they are to compete is scheduled to take place. Thus the chances of their being doped or tampered with are diminished. Horse racings receiving barn simply was lifted from dog racing, which has used the jinny pit for many years. Moreover dogmen have worked out highly efficient records as a safeguard against ringers. On nichts on which they arc to participate in a program grevhounds are placed under guard at 6 o clock. Excess water and food is eliminated between then and post time, making it fairly certain that the dogs will be ready and in shape. a a a a a a IEW FONSECA, former Chicago White Sox manager, made some ln- • teresting comment a few days ago regarding the league-leading Detroit Tigers. He said: “I just came from watching the Tigers for ten days—taking motion pictures of them for the six-reeler which I will show in connection with my baseball lecture in anew series sponsored by the American League. I saw things about the Tigers that I did not appreciate when we w’ere playing against them. Os course, their tremendous asset is speed. They beat out one double play after another by a whisker. They have the greatest infield in the business, and their outfield is not the inferior bunch many experts think it is. Fox has come along on the wave of success enjoyed by the whole club and is playing like a real star, 'White also has improved tremendously. “There is an even distribution of power and Mickey Cochrane has the boys hopped up as no other American League club has been in my recollection." aaa a a a HEHEN the winning streak of Schoolboy Row’s was cracked last W Wednesday it was a different kind of a game than the battles in which other record breakers lost out. The American League record is sixteen and the National high mark Is nineteen. Rowe was knocked out of the box and was handea a severe trouncing as he tried for No. 17. Previous “streakers" in both big leagues were stopped in close and exciting tuts. When Rube Marquard of the Giants went after a new all-time mark of twenty, in 1912. Jimmy Lavender of the Cubs halted him in a 2-to-l duel Lcftv Grove was blocked in his endeavor to win No. 17 by Dick Coffman in a l-to-0 game in St. Louis, which was lost chiefly because Jim Moore misjudged a flyball. aaa a a a IN 1912 Marquard had a hard time winning after he had been halted on July 3. Neither Walter Johnson nor Joe Wood was bothered much when their streaks were snapped at sixteen that year. Wood, in particular, going on to a grand season, in which he established an American League percentage of 872. with thirty-four won and only 5 lost. This stood until Grove won thirty-one and lost four, for .886. in 1931. Walter Johnson was as effective after this streak as he had been during it, as he won thirty-two games in 1912. aaa a a a FOOTBALL has not seen the last of the Columbia university team which won in the Rose bowl last New Year s day. Every member of that squad who made the transcontinental trip and is no longer eligible for varsity competition will stick together and make their debut in pro ranks as the Rose Bowl Lions of New York. Cliff Montgomery, who will play with the Brooklvn Dodgers, professional league team, is the only absentee from this group, which will make its first appearance in Paterson, N. J., cn Sunday. Sept. 16, against the New York Giants, pro gridders. aaa a a a THE former Columbia players will be coached by Steve Grenda, who captained the 1932 Columbia team and was an assistant tutor to head coach Lou Little last fall. Grenda. in addition to coaching, will play guard. Manny Rivero and Joe Salvo, 1932 regulars, also will team up with the recent graduates. Joe Lineham. Otto Schwartz. Giacoma Migliore, Steve Dzamba, Newt Wilder, Larry Pinckney, John Palenchar and A1 Ciampa are the 1933 stars on the new team. They have assembled for training at Orangeburg, N. Y., in order to get into shape for their debut and also will have jobs at the dog track, which opened there recently. That's a strange life for college graduates to follow, dogs and football, but the boys are out of work and no jobs to suit them are in sight. No dividends are declared on colleee sheepskins and the Columbia boys desire to be employed at something even if they have to go to the dogs. New Jersey is one of the few states that permits the canines to run for money.

New Ponies and Old Riders to Get Test in East-West Polo Matches

BY MAX RIDDLE XEA Service Turf Writer. NEW YORK. Sept. 3 —When the East-West polo forces tangle leather for national supremacy at Meadowbrook on Sept. 8, there will be more than a sectional contest at stake. You'll see a battle among breeders of polo ponies, and another decidedly personal battle of two remaining veteran polo greats against the onslaught of time. The great series at the Onwentsia Country Club during Chicago's worlds fair last year taught the east that polo had moved w ? est among the common folk, and it was there to stay. It also advised eastern players that our own United States might return to the pinnacle of fame it once field as a breeder of polo ponies.

TRIBESMEN ANNEX TWO WILD STRUGGLES

Indians Fight Back to Take Twin Feature Locals Overcome Colonels in Close Tilts; Evans Bids for Tribe Stars. BY EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor It will take the oldest inhabitant' to recall a double-header victory of the type scored by the Indians at Perry stadium yesterday. The Louisville Colonels stacked up a lead of 8 to 0 in the first tilt before the Tribesmen got started and when the battle drew to a close the Redskins were out in front, 11 to 10. It was another come-from-behind thriller in the second game, cut to seven innings by the 6 o'clock law. The Indians went into the sevenih and last inning trailing, 3 to 0, and staged a wild rally that netted four runs and the game, 4to 3. The Colonels annexed the series opener Saturday night, 3 to 1, with the aid of Tribe miscues in the field. Close Fight Under Way The struggle for the lead in the eastern division of the A. A. continues to be a wild affair. Columbus was out in front this morning by the margin of one game and a half over the Indians, and with Louisville trailing the Hoosiers by two games. The Indians and Colonels will clash in a single game this afternoon at 3 p. m. and in a second single game under the lights tonight at 8:: 15. The Toledo Hens will invade Perry stadium tomorrow to open a six-game series beginning with a single fracas tomorrow night at 8:15. The Columbus Birds will follow the Hens here for five games and then the Indians will go to Louisville for three games to end the season. Lefty and Vernon May Go Billy Evans, general manager of the Cleveland Americans, was here today to confer with Manager Red Killefer on players. Evans is dickering for the services of pitcher Lefty Bob Logan and outfielder Vernon George Washington. It is believed one or both Tribe stars will be sold to Cleveland for players and a sum of cash. Louisville tallied two runs in the ninth stanza of the first game yesterday and had runners on third and first when the final out was made. Phil Weinert, third pitener employed by the Tribe, received credit for the victory. The defeat was charged to Jack Tising. second hurler used by the Colonels. Weinert and Tising changed clubs along about midseason. 18 Hits for Losers Burwell was the Indians’ starting flinger and he was succeeded by Eutzberger, and Weinert followed Butzberger to the mound. Bass opened for Louisville and was succeeded by Tising. McLean and McKain also saw service on the Colonel mound. Hits were eighteen for the visitors and thirteen for the home pastimers. Page pitched for the Redskins in the second conflict and Jim Peterson toiled for Louisville. The Colonels got to Page for two runs in the second innings and one in the third. Peterson held the Indians to three hits in six innings and then “blew up” in the seventh. Sprinz was first up in the seventh and flied to Simons. J. Sherlock singled and Lee walked. Sigafoos batted for Page and flied out to Brack for the second out. Cotelle singled, scoring J. Sherlock, and Lee reached third. V. Sherlock beat out an infield hit and Lee scored and Cotelle stopped at second. Rosenberg tied the score at 3-all when his single tallied Cotelle and V. Sherlock pulled up at third. Washington was given an intentional pass, filling the bases. V. Sherlock Speeds for Home With two strikes and no balls on Bedore, V. Sherlock dashed for the plate on the next pitch as Peterson took a long windup. Sherlock dived under Bedore as Fred swung the bat and connected with a looping single to short left. The pitch looked good to Bedore and he swung to avoid a strikeout, although Sherlock was under him and touching the plate at the time. It was the winning run. The 6 o'clock closing law and darkness ended action at this point and sent 4.000 fans home in a cheerful frame of mind. The higher a club finishes in the A. A. race the more moneyjhe players receive, and this arrangement has led to the exhibition of hardfighting pastiming in the closing days of the season. TAKE SKEET TITLES By Time# Special WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 3. The North-South skeet team championship has been won by Roseland (N. J.) Gun Club. The five-man team broke 474 birds to win the title, Frank R. Kelly. West Orange. N. J.. won the individual title with a score of 98.

THE east, long regarded as the cradle and last word in polo in the United States, for many years has gone to the ranges of Argentina for its mounts, apparently' under the assumption that the urbanization of our west had ruined the horse industry. And it is true that for many years American-bred polo mounts were inferior. But in the last few years American breeders have concentrated on this type of pony, and just as Tommy Hitchcock revolutionized the style of polo play with his tremendous hitting, so also has there been anew type of mount introduced—the polo “horse.” The present game requires horses with the speed of a Cavalcade, and with stamina and endurance enough

Zaharias and Strack Tip Scales at Same Poundage Heavy Grapplers Due to Clash at Sports Arena Tomorrow; 'Cry Baby’ Shines on Coast. George (Cry Baby) Zaharias and Charlie Strack will w'cigh approximately the same when they clash in the top match on the Hercules A. C. all-heavyweight wrestling card tomorrow night at Sports arena. Both huskies scale around 233 pounds.

Matchmaker Lloyd Carter reports that local mat fans are displaying keen interest in the bout and he believes the outdoor arena will be well filled when the two nationally rated grapplers come to grips. Strack is expected to provide the rough Greek with plenty of opposition. The crack Boston matman proved that he knows how to treat opponents w r ho resort to the rough style of performance when he “manhandled" Lou Plummer here last Tuesday. Charlie is popular with the fans. He is a former United States Olympic wrestler. Zaharias comes to Indianapolis following a successful invasion of west coast rings, where he was a big drawing card. One of his victories was over Jim Browning. In other bouts on the card. Big Boy Davis meets Whitey Hewitt, and Pat Reilley, a newcomer, opposes Logan Baxter.

If it hadn’t been for the withdrawal of Tommy Hitchcock Jr., from the contest recently, due to an injury in a previous match, there would have been three in this class. a a a HITCHCOCK has lasted longer than any of the athletes of his time, and for thirteen years has held the highest rating in polo—that of a 10-goal handicap man. The old Hitchcock judgment has been somewhat amiss recently, causing him several severe accidents. The latest one. a particularly bad fall that resulted in a brain concussion, wound up his career for the season. Rube Williams has been slipping for several years, but the very genius of his sorties on the field
