I*l

Local boy makes good—eh, what? And is zatso? Anyway, thousands of Indianapolis and other Iloosier baseball shouters leaped and danced on the sitting room rug yesterday when Chuck Klein of Indianapolis, the Iloosier Hercules, finally plastered one out of sight in the World Series. And the homer supplied the margin of victory for the Chicago Cubs. The radio account of the play by play was rattling through the ether waves as diamond followers all over Indiana listened in. Third inning, score, oto 0. Billy Herman of New Albany, Ind., just had torn off a triple and Klein stepped up to the plate. “ There it goes, it’s a home run,” the announcer screamed. r J he Tigers had set their defense to bottle up the Indianapolis youth, but he zoomed his blast into the air and it traveled 380 feet. The cry of “come on Chuck,” whispered or yelled by the Iloosier radio tuners-in was answered. Hundreds of Indianapolis fans made the trip to Chicago for yesterday's game and found a way to join the throng at Wrigley Field. Most of them were rooting for the Cubs, but here and there a Tiger supporter popped up. Asa matter of fact Indianapolis has been well-represented at both Detroit and Chicago. On a night train from Chicago last night “Indianapolis came home" singing the praises of Chuck Klein. Taxicabs did a iu, hing business as the baseball choo-choo pulled in. A manager of one taxi cempany said 35 cabs were hired in one swoop by returning rooters and that more customers were waiting when the first fleet of taxis cleared the station. a a a a a a the king of all National League sluggers, Klein lost his batting vy eye and entered the nassic as a bench warmer and pinch hitter. A bad break for Freddie Lindstrom and a good break for Chuck occurred when Lindstrom, a Chicago boy. the Cubs’ regular center fielder, was injured Saturday. It put Klein in the starting lineup yesterday and he delivered a single and the game-winning four-ply swat. It may be the break that will save the Cubs.’ Klein has a habit of hitting in streaks and if the Tigers are not careful the big fellow will knock down their Navin Field playhouse. Over a short stretch during the regular season Chuck smacked the ball consistently and sent a low batting average soaring to .305. Then Old John Slump set him back and out of the lineup to the sidelines. Chuck reached his thirtieth birthday today and won’t mind carrying the celebration over from yesterday. Billy Herman, the other Hoosier player with the Cubs, walloped a triple and double to help put his club “back in the series.’’ His double in the seventh batted in Chicago’s third run. a a a a a a THE absence of the great hitter, Hank Greenberg, finally has caught up with tiie Tigers. They are out in front, three games to two, but they went into a batting slump Saturday and won only because Chicago errors came to their aid. They left 13 runners stranded on the paths in that 2-to-l game. Flea Clifton, who entered the Tiger lineup when Greenberg was hurt, has failed to get a single hit in three tilts. And on top of that, Marvin Owen, another Tiger infielder, has gone hitless in all five battles. Slumps are pernicious things and especially terrifying in a “sudden death’’ series. Well, it will be all over not later than midafternoon tomorrow' should the Bruins even ’er up today. a a a a a a THE football Perfect Picker Petes lost no time in going to bat last week and many selections were received at The Times. The slips will be checked today and the fan experts will get the low down tomorrow. Another selection blank will appear this week and there will be plenty of tough games to “prognosticate.” Football tempo will pick up in a big way just as soon as the World Series ends. Study the teams and try your hand in the “expert league.”

Warneke Has Fretful Time After Giving Up Mound Forced Out in Sixth With Pulled Muscle, Lonnie Rages in Clubhouse as Tigers Rally.

BY HENRY M’LEMORE L'nitrd Press Staff Correspondent DETROIT, Oci. 7.—1 had planned as I walked down the long ramp from the press box to the Cubs’ hideaway in the fastness of Wrigley Field, to start this piece with quotations from Lonnie Warneke as they worked on his wounded right arm which drove him out of the fifth game of the World Series. But this is a family press association. and Lonnie’s words, as he lay stretched out on the rubbing table, with a big sun lamp pouring down its healing rays, were not family words. While no official count was made, competent observers among the reporters gave Warneke credit for 11 new and full-bodied oaths during those three Detroit times at bat when he was out of the game. He reached his peak —and, to our way of thinking, an all-time peak—in the ninth inning, when the Tigers, fighting to end the series then and there, scored one run ofi Bill Lee and placed the Lee Tunes Up for Clash With Champ Paul Flashes Form Getting Set for Milier. Freddie Miller of Cincinnati, king of the featherweights, will have his hands full at the Armory Friday night, if the form flashed yesterday by Paul iTennessee) Lee. in training to meet the title holder, doesn’t reverse itself. Lee went four rounds at the Colonial gym on W. Market-st in hectic fashion with Scotty Scotten. whom he defeated here several months ago in a ten-round battle. Scotten. whose meeting with Lee last summer was billed as a grudge fight long In the making, announced that he would come back to the gym today to work out with Lee whose ambition to meet a champion is near realization. Lee is confident that he will make sufficient showing against the titled leather pusher to warrant a return match for the crown. Series Statistics HOW THEY STAND W. L. Pet.

tying runs on third and second. “Blankety-bam-bam, bam, bam,” roared Warneke. a a a AND so it went until Cavarretta, with the cries of 50.000 customers ringing in his ears, leaned over the Tigers’ dugout to take Clifton’s foul for the final out. The freak “snap” in Lonnie’s arm came in the third inning, on a pitch to Schoolboy Rowe. With the count 2 and 2, Lonnie let loose an overhand curve. As the ball left his fingers, something snapped. A muscle gave way. From then on, to use his own words, “I couldn'a busted a window pane with a rock.” But, by gritting his teeth against the pain, he kept his hurt a secret until the sixth inning. On the first pitch in that inning (Gehringer was up), Catcher Gabby Hartnett walked out to Lonnie. “What's the matter with that arm of yours?” Gabby asked. “It ain't got any snap.” “I knew he had me.” Warneke said. “I didn't have any snap. My arm felt all right on the back part of my windup, but once my arm came over my shoulder, it fell right out in front of me. dead-like. I told Gabby about it, and he said, ‘All right, kid, stick it out this inning, and then call it quits.”’ a a a lONNIE was a bit sore at Gabby for discovering his injury. “If it hadn't been for him," he said. “I mighta lasted it out. The tattle-tale!” Y'os. he might have lasted it out. for the big Arkansas cotton-chopper has a heart as big as a watermelon. But he might have ruined his arm forever. Even so. Charlie Grimm won’t have a decent night's sleep until he knows that Lonnie's long right arm is right again.

CHUCK KLEIN’S BAT KEEPS

AI Espinosa Is Winner of Rich Tourney Score of 288 Takes V. F. W. Open; Runyan Lowers Course Record. It’s the stretch drive that takes 1 the payoff. Omaha had it in the ! Kentucky Derby this year, the Cubs had it in the National League pen- j nant race and Al Espinosa, popular Akron 'O.) pro, had it yesterday at Highland Golf and Country Club to capture the first annual Indianapolis SSOOO Open golf championship j with a total of 283 for the 72-hole ! test sponsored by the Veterans of Foreign Wars for charity. First j place meant a winning of SIOOO for Espinosa. Trailing the leader by two strokes ' | at the end of the first 36 holes Saturday night, Espinosa battled his way up into a tie for the leadership with a 75 in the round of 18 holes yesterday morning and then came home a two-stroke winner with a brilliant even par 70 in the afterI noon. Espinosa's opening round Friday was 70 and he had a 73 Saturday. Paul Tallies 66 Another stretch finisher was Paul Runyan of White Plains, N. Y., who, after being well down the list in 13th position at the end of 36 holes with a 152-total, came back yesterday to slash 14 strokes from that total and scored 138 for the final 36 holes to finish just two strokes be- : hind the winner. To accomplish this Runyan had to shoot a dazzling sub-par new course record of 65, five strokes under course par that gave him a place in a three-way tie for second place honors with 290. Others who had the same count were Ky Lafoon of : Ravina, 111., who was leader at the i end of 36 holes with 141, and Ray I Mangrum of Pittsburgh. Nosed out of a tie for second by one stroke was Ralph Stonehou.se, former Indianapolis pro and former Miami Open champion, now of Noblesville. Ind.. who missed a short putt on the last green that would have given him 290 instead of 291. Reed High Amateur Bill Reed Jr., Indianapolis District champion, headed the list of 15 amateurs who were permitted to play the final 36 holes of the 72hole test. Bill had a total of 310, representing rounds of 75-77, 78-80 lor his total which was three strokes better than Mike Poliak of Indianapolis, who had 313. Mike nosed out by one stroke Phil Talbot, of Bloomington, and Fritz Cox. of Terre Haute, who tied with 314 each.Indianapolis links fans finally awakened yesterday to the show that was on at the north side course I and large crowds followed the stars ! during the final day of play. News that Runyan was burning up the | course brought crowds scurrying j across the fairways to watch him put on a dazzling finish of 3-3-3 on the final three holes, each a birdie, j He had six of them on his card. Others followed Light Horse Har- ! ry Cooper who, with Walter Hagen, | held the former course record un- ; til yesterday's performance by Runyan. Cooper and Hagen each scored a 66 while, playing in the Western Open at Highland in 1926. One Under at Turn Runyan, the national P. G. A. i champion, almost slipped in with! his great round unnoticed by the j galleryites. He chipped in from off j the edge on the second hole and ; dropped in a 15-foot putt for a birdie on No. 6. Six pars on the other holes left him two under | when he walked to the ninth tee. He pushed his second into the j bunker and lost a shot coming out, but a five still left him one under with 34 at the turn.

From there on Paul clicked off three pars before dropping in a 15foot putt for a birdie on No. 13 and he got his par on No. 15. Pars “in” mean a 68. the same count that Lafoon fired Saturday afternoon for the best round of the tournament to that point, and no one matched it yesterday morning. Makes 25-Foot Putt But Runyan was after a record and he felt it coming when he sent in a screaming one from 25 feet on No. 16. He made putts of 15 feet look easy on Nos. 17 and 18 and with them came the new record. Kunvan’s card matched against par follows: Par Out ... 4 45 3 4 4 4 3 4—35 Runyan 4 3 4 4 5 3 1 3 5—34 Par In 43 5 44344 1—35—35 70 Runyan 4353 433 3 3—31 34 65 Sam Parks, Pittsburgh, National Open champion, finished with 306. while Alfred Perry, British Open j champion, found the going too tough to get by the 36-lioie mark and did | not play yesterday.

CUBS IN RACE

Hoosier Slugger Steps Off Bench Intoßoleof Series Hero With Timely Home Run Circuit Clout With Herman Aboard Proves Winning Margin for Bruins and Sends Classic Into Sixth Game: Also Stars in Field. BY JOE WILLIAMS Timn Special Writer DETROIT. Oct. 7.—They were setting the stage for the fifth game of the World Series over in windy, wintry Chicago vesterda* Some 50.000 people were sitting in the stands wrapped in blankets, wearing heavy coats, banging their palms together. From the brassy throat o f th" amplifier came the announcer’s voice giving the names of the starting players. Tho announcer hadn't got far down the lineup of the Cubs before he mentioned a change. Burly, red-necked. Chuck Klein was replacing Freddie Lindstrom in the out-

ficl dand batting third. Up in the press box scribbling down the names sat a familiar baseball figure, enjoying a busman's holiday. “So they’re finally starting Klein, eh?” he mused. “Well, that’s liable to make it ought for the Tigers. You never can tell when that big guy is going to hit one out of the park.” Klein Slams Homer The speaker was Mr. Jimmy Foxx, gifted slugger of the Athletites, and naturally a partisan American Leaguer. It didn't take Klein long to make Mr. Foxx look exceedinglyy good as a prophet. He got hold of one in the third inning and slammed it high into the center field bleachers. There was a man on at the time. And since the final score was 3 to 1 in favor of the National Leaguers Klein's wallop was the clincher. On of those strange, ohildish fetishes baseball managers bow to kept the slugging Klein out of the Cubs’ lineup as a regular. He hadn’t been part of the combination that won 21 games in a row during the season and for that reason he was kept on the bench when the series started. Baseball managers insist a winning combination should never be tampered with. The master mind of the Cubs was forced to divorce himself from this ancient superstition yesterday because there wasn’t much else he could do. Lindstrom bobbed up with a bruised finger, and any way the Cubs hadn’t been a winning combij nation since the first game of the ; series. They had, in fact, dropped three straight games. If they dropped this one they were through without any further debate. Indianapolis Boy Has Chance And so it was that the veteran steel worker from Indianapolis who hits the ball for prodigious distances when he does smack it and is always a tremendous threat in any batting order, was given his chance. He got two hits and made a long running catch. His homer was the hardest hit ball of the series. It shook Schoolboy Rowe up like a Joe Louis left hook. You felt inclined to agree with the sentiments of the articulate gent who jumped out of a field box on to the top of the Cubs’ dugout and screamed, “Hey, you Charley Grimm—where have you been keeping this fellow all these days?” What makes Klein particularly dangerous in a short series is that he is capable of breaking up a ball game with one blow, as was demonstrated yesterday. He is admittedly an over-rated slugger because he rose to fame in the Phfilies’ trick ball park where he became the champion hitter of the National League in 1933. Sold to the Cubs he slumped to a mark of .301 last year. This year he dropped under .300. But even so he outhit Lindstrom for the season and baseball men figured because of his semi-occasional power wallops he should have been in the Cubs’ lineup from the start. It should not be assumed, however, that Klein won the bell game all alone. The Cubs got good pitching from Lon Warneke until he was compelled to retire because of an injured shoulder and they got pitching that was at least all right from Bill Lee who weathered a serious ninth-inning uprising when the first three Tigers to face him hit safely. Herman Wields Lance On top of that young Billy Herman the Cubs’ second baseman, wielded a powerful lance in the victors’ attack. He paced Klein’s ! homer with a triple in the third and ! he drove hone the Cubs' third and final run with a resonant double in , the seventl. He was practically! Herman-the-Great himself. There are some stars who do not sparkle brightest in the fall play- ; offs. Schoolboy Rowe may be one j of these. He hasn’t pitched bad baseball, nor has he pitched bril- j liant baseball. The Cubs have won i two games and both have been victories over the Schoclboy. He didn’t have enough stuff to outpitch Warneke in the opening game and he was the same kind of pitcher yesterday.

Harrison's Capital City League I champions opened their 1935 lootball campaign in impressive style at the Fort grid yesterday, piling up a 25-to-6 decision over the Riverside Olympics. McMillin starred for the Soldiers, making one of his two touchdowns after a 75-yard dash. A pass, Karlstedt to Weaver, accounted for the Olympics points. In the other opening tilt in the Smith-Hassler-Sturm loop Leon Tailors registered a 25-to-0 victory over P. R. Mallory. Welton led the attack as the victors tallied three touchdowns in the second half. Boehn and Cain were stars for the losers and their stiff defensive work halted several Tailor drives.
