By Eddie Ash LO AND OH! THE POOR INDIANS a a a THEY’RE TRYING, AT ANY RATE

'p'HE next big sports flash will be broadcast when the Indians win a ball garre. ... The underdogs have the fans pulling for them n0w.... They’ve been licked four times and tied two games without receiving a drubbing. . . . Which is all right in a way. . . . The boys are trying, turning in fine defensive work and doing everything to get going. . . . They are called out in the morning and drilled in batting and fielding, they are bunting on the sidelines to get their eye on the ball and Manager Red Killefer’s red face is as red as a Hoosier tomato (in season). One player described it exactly when he remarked that, “If Lo, the poor Indian, was as low as this bunch he was below sea level.” The Brewers captured the series finale yesterday, 4-2, and Gabby Street’s St. Paul Saints moved in today for a series of four tilts at Perry Stadium. . . . The Apostles are scheduled here as week-day visitcrc with no Sunday attendance to help their purse. . . . However, their next stop is Louisville, Just a thumb’s ride, so they’ll make it if a financial emergency arises. Indianapolis and Columbus, except on Sunday, are not doing well at the gate. . . . And one umpire has been lopped off the staff, leaving nine working. . . . John Kelly, Indianapolis, drew the blue notice.

It was home-run day at the stadium yesterday. Laabs and Storti cleared the wall for the Brewers and Berger and Bou/.a for the Indians. All circuit clouts came with the bases empty. Vance Page and Lefty I-ogan hurled for the home nine and Southpaw Clyde (Mad) Hatter for Milwaukee. a a a LAABS smacked one over the wall in the fourth that paved the way for the Brewers’ victory. He was first up in the fourth and his drive rolled across Sixteenth-st. A schoolgirl, picking wild flowers in the commons, was surprised when the bouncing pellet rolled into her lap. Evidently she was a Girl Scout, for she accomplished a good deed by taking the ball to the stadium gate. a a a The fourth frame wrecked the Hoosiers. After Laabs homered, Indian York bounced a triple off the scoreboard, Storti scored him on a long fly after one. out, Detore doubled and Hatter singled. Three runs put the Redskins out of the picture. FRED BERGER lined one over; the wall at the 400-foot mark in the seventh for the Tribe’s first run. Then Storti of the Brewers lifted one out of the lot in the eighth to make the Milwaukee total four. Mike Bouza plastered the horsehide for four bases in the ninth, and that made the Hoosier j scoring sum two. Bouza connected j after one away and Sherlock and ! Egerer fanned to end the game. j a a a Hatter is a former Louisville j pitcher and is owned by Detroit. He | fanned seven and never allowed more than one hit an inning. He struck out Heath and Berger to wind up the fourth and then breezed Bouza as first up in the fifth and Page after Sherlock was erased on 1 a fly. Vance Page fanned three and Logan one. a a • The one error of the contest was on a hard drive by Morgan in the j first canto. The ball bounced off Mickey Heath’s glove. a a a Even Johnny Riddle failed the Tribcsters yesterday. In his first time at bat, with the bases unoccupied, he singled. But on the next three times up, with one or more runners on, he fizzled. a a a BASEBALL is like that. Beyond all understanding. For example, Laabs of the Brewers. First time up he fanned. Second time up a home run. Third time a pop fly to the pitcher. Fourth time out on a fly to center. a a a And Otto Bluege, shortstop, a weak hitter, is sharing with Riddlft the batting leadership of the Tribesters among the regulars. SHANNON LOSES BOUT RICHMOND, Ind., April 21. Jimmy Shannon, Indianapolis lightweight fighter, was defeated by Kenny Manes of Fort Wayne in a ten-round scrap on the Richmond Boxing Club program last night.

/. U. to Be Surprise of Big Ten , Coaches Claim Spring Grid Poll Shows Minnesota, Ohio State Favored; Purdue Varsity 0. K„ Says Kizer. By United Press CHICAGO, April 21. Minnesota's Golden Gophers and the Scarlet Scourge of Ohio State, who lost almost enough star players between them to restock a whole new league, will rule the Big Ten for another year Western Conference coaches agreed today in a poll of spring football camps. j

Power of the defending co-cham-pions is so apparent that even their coaches, mindful their predictions must be tested in the national’s toughest gridiron mill, admit they will be good. "I'm not exactly pessimistic,’’ reported Coach Bemie Bierman of Minnesota. “If the weather permits hard scrimmage up until the final inter-squad game May 23, you can be sure we ll have a good team on the field next fall.” Said Francis Schmidt of Ohio State: “This is an awful tough conference and there's no telling what'll happen. Ohio State will be good, all right, but we may lose eight straight games.” Here's how the 10 coaches size up the 1936 season: Bierman, Minnesota—"We lose Glenn Seidel, Vem Levoir, George Roscoe, Sheldon Beise, Dale Rennebohm, Vern Oech and Dick Smith among others. Finding a quarter back to replace Seidel and Levoir is the hard job. Ohio State will be strong—and watch those Wildcats of Northwestern.” Indiana Rated Toughest Schmidt. Ohio State—“ Ohio State loses 15 men by graduation, but IV come back. We won’t be crowned national champs in early Septem- i ber, as we were last year, and that j will help. Northwestern and Indi- I ana will be our hardest conference games.” Lynn Waldorf, Northwestern “We'll be 25 per cent weaker. This I will show up in October, sihee we have to break In sophomores and 1935 reserves in seven positions. Both taqkles, guard and center must be plugged. Watch Ohio State and Minnesota.” Ossie Solera, lowa—“Nineteen returning veterans can fill every position, but loss of men like Dick Crsyne, Rudy Leytze and Bill Bed

NO GAME TODAY The opening tilt of the Tribe-St. Paul series scheduled at Perry Stadium today was postponed on account of rain and cold weather. The Apostles are booked here through Friday and are to be followed by the champion Minneapolis Millers.

CHAMPS TRAIL AFTER LOSING IN NINTH

Five Big Loop Games Won in Final Inning Cubs and Tigers Revive Old Adage After Surprises by Bucs, Browns. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Pres* Staff Correspondent | NEW YORK, April 21.- Mickey Cochrane and Charlie Grimm might derive a lot of benefit from calling their athletes together today and reminding them of a baseball proverb that Harry C. Pulliam, president of the National League from 1903-09, had on his desk. It read—“No ball game is over until the last man is out.”

The Detroit Tigers and Chi.cago Cubs, world series rivals last October, were in second division tocay in their respective leagues becausfc they evidently forgot that. The two favorites ,to repeat in the major league races blew a couple of games they thought

, #s* V 1

Kennedy

they had won. The Tigers blew theirs in the eighth and the Cubs tossed theirs away in the ninth. Cochrane and Grimm aren’t the only major league pilots who should adorn their clubhouses today with Pulliam’s saw. Chuck Dressen of the Cincinnati Reds, Jimmy Wilson of the Phillies, Bucky Harris of the Washington Senators, and Joe McCarthy of the New York Yankees might do the same thing with beneficial results. Phils Barely Survive The Reds had the Cardinals beat, 7-3, going into the last half of the ninth and lost, 8-7. The Phillies just nosed out the Giants, 7-6, after the Terrymen had put on a three-run rally in the last of the ninth. Washington had the Red Sox, 5-3, in the last of the ninth but lost, 6-5, in the first game of a twin bill. The Yankees four times led the A’s but wound up losing in the ninth, 12-11. Five of nine major league games were won in the ninth yesterday. Detroit loked like a “shoo-in” to beat St. Louis, leading 4-0 at the end of the sixth with Tommy Bridges on the mound. Bridges weakened in the seventh and Schoolboy Rowe came to the rescue. He, too, couldn’t hold the men of Hornsby, seeking their first major league win. Driving Rowe to cover in the eighth inning and continuing their attack on Hogsett and Phillips, the Browns piled up nine runs in two innings to beat the Tigers, 9-6. The big inning was the eighth when the Browns made six runs. Pirates Debunk Henshaw The spell Roy Henshaw held over the Pittsburgh Pirates all last season when he beat them seven out of eight times was finally broken the hard way. The Cubs had the Pirates licked, 6-0, at the end of the third. 7-3 at the end of the sixth and 8-5 at the end of the eighth, but wound up by losing, 9-8. Gus Suhr’s homer with two on and two out in the ninth was the winning punch. Dizzy Dean won his first game when he stuck out nine innings and finally saw the Cards put on a fiverun rally in the ninth to nose out the Reds, 8-7. The New York Giants lost their first game, bowing to the Phillies, 7-6. The Giants just failed to nip the Phils when Mel Ott hit a homer with two on in the ninth. The Boston Bees blasted out 14 hits to trim Brooklyn, 8-4, and plunge the Dodgers into the cellar. The Chicago White Sox, behind the four-hit pitching of Vernon Kennedy. beat Cleveland, 5-1. and moved into the American League lead. After beating Washington in the first game, 6-5. the Boston Red Sox lost the second game, 6-2. Lovill (Chubby) Dean's pinch single in the ninth with the bases filled gave the Athletics their first victory of the season over the Yankees, 12-11. Yesterday’s Hero: Vernon Kennedy, who let Cleveland down with five hits, and pitched the White Sox into first place in the American League with a 5-1 triumph over Cleveland. Lewis Awaits First Showing in Chicago By United Press CHICAGO, April 21.—L i g h theavyweight Champion John Henry Lewis, primed for his Chicago debut, concluded training today for a 10round overweight fight tomorrow night with Izzy Singer of New York. Singer, elminator of the stadium's best white hopes, has trimmed down to 182 pounds. The champion weighed 180 when he finished yesterday’s workout and his handlers said he will fight at that weight. Jack Blackburn, who conditioned Lewis for his first title defense against socking Jock McAvoy of Great Britain, will second the champion tomorrow night. STOLKIN WINS TITLE IN KIRSHBAUM MEET E. Harold Stolkin is champion of the open Üble tennis tournament staged at Kirshbaum Community Center and concluded last night, Stolkin climaxed the tourney by defeating Sigurd Rosenfield, 21-18, 22-20, 21-16 after eliminating Carl Haas, Frank Barnett, Sol Blickman and Leon Cohen.

He arrives on the S. S. Bremen to meet the Brown Bomber at Yankee Stadium Thursday, June 18. Promoter Mike Jacobs named the date for the bout yesterday after the bout yesterday after dropping all negotiations to “sell” the match to the San Diego Exposition for $1,000,000.

De Palma to Direct Car Driven by Henry Banks

When practice spins start for the 500-mile race the Speedway railbirds are going to see a familiar figure at the track. Ralph De Palma, winner of the 1915 classic, is coming back in the role of manager. The former speed king is to direct the car entered by Louis Kimmel of Royal Oak, Mich. Henry Banks has been named to drive the machine. De Palma built the racer and sold it to Kimmel. Ralph competed in the 1911 race and finished sixth. He missed victory in 1912 when bad luck stepped in near the finish. First honors came to him in 1915, and for a dozen years he was always a threat and finished in the money several times.

Bill Wilson, lightweight king, is pitted against Milton Bess, local Negro. Bob Wallace, welterweight, is slated for a return match with Merle Roberts from whom he previously won a close decision. Sock Kurtz, former Purdue University light heavyweight champion, is to appear again.

Three four-round matches and five three-round affairs are to complete the program. Matchmaker Wallace is seeking an opponent for Joe Giovanni, Purdue middleweight. Title Chasers Clash Tonight Steele and Lewis to Mix on Armory Mat; Two Other Bouts. A match between two top ranking challengers for the world heavyweight crown features the Hercules A. C. wrestling card tonight at the Armory. Opponents are Ray Steele, 220, skilled grappler from Glendale, Cal., and Ed (Strangler) Lewis, 235, Chicago. Lewis, who recently announced himself all set to launch a campaign to regain the championship belt which he has held on five different occasions, goes against a clever and powerful husky in Steele. Ray is rated among the first five heavies in the game. The Steele-Lewis encounter is recognized as one of the most important heavyweight tussles staged here this season. The two stars are at their best when the competition gets tough and Armory patrons expect to see a bout filled with action. It is for two falls out of three. Abe (Half Pint) Coleman, 205, New York, and Leo Numa, 220, Seattle, both nationally rated matmen, clash in the semi-windup. Numa, a favorite with local fans, is one of the best of the younger heavies. The opener at 8:30 pits Tom Marvin, 215, against Big Boy Davis, 239, Columbus, O. CARDS RELEASE PAIR Times Special ST.
