By Eddie Ash GASOLINE ALLEY FULL OF LIFE * * SPEEDWAY RAILBIRDS ON MARCH
ALLEY is thriving again. ... In other words the annual boom is on at the Motor Speedway. . . . Many knights of the Roaring Way are on hand, others are arriving daily. . . . And the railbirds are beginning to appear and start the unofficial inspection of everything at the track, risking fallen arches as they cover the same beat over and over on a hunch that this or that car is going out for a spin. Tom Beal’s concession stand is still the town hall of the infield where 500-mile history is revived, last year’s experiences on all tracks exchanged and speculation on the 500miler coming up discussed. . . . Old Tom used to be a wise handicapper on the five-century classics. He seldom missed picking ’em in the old days. . . . But the daredevils go too fast now for Tom to get a true line on who’s due to take down the fifty grand. * * * nun BEAL used to base his predictions on the way the pilots enjoyed their meals under his tent. Watched their nervous reactions. . . . Now it sepms the helmet-wearers don’t have any nerves. . . . Just go out on the bricks and turn ’er on in high. The speed colony has lost none of the old color. ... A bunch of happy, hard-working fellows bent on gaining fame and the rich rewards that go to the high finishers in the International Sweepstakes. The pilots hail from ail sections of the nation. . . . The same as the customers on May 30. . . . License plates usually show every state in the Union represented in the throng. a a a—
George Souders of Lafayette, winner of the 500-mile in 1927, had a cinch race yesterday. ... He was nominated for coroner of Tippecanoe County on the Democratic ticket, unopposed . . . From race driver to coroner is a strange path to take. . . . The word coroner is an unmentionable around a track, . . . It inflicts the jitters. u a a WHO is the Big Bad Wolf to college coaches? . . . He's Tom Devine, scout for the New York Yankees. .. . Tom visits Perry Stadium occasionally. ... He recently raised a furore on the Pacific Coast by signing a sophomore at St. Mary’s College . . . And now he's heading this way to tour the Big Ten! nutt There is an odd expression on the faces of many leading horsemen who have fortunes invested in racing stables and tracks. . . . Col. E. R. Bradley is taking care, of Jockey Don Meade, who was ruled off the turf in Florida charged with accepting mounts and betting on other horses in the same race. ... It was the biggest sports scandal of the winter season. . . . Bradley has employed the disbarred rider on his Idle Hour farm in Kentucky. •n a a Freddie Lindstrom’s star is set*?iig on the big line. ... He was taken out for a pinch hitter the other day. ... He has a major league life-time batting average of .318. . . . Asked to give way to a “better hitter” ages a veteran no end. nun PAUL- DERRINGER is one of the first ten pitchers of. the National League and maybe the, Cincy Reds will change their minds on trading him. ... He is under indefinite suspension for failing to slide at the plate while trying to score from second on a single. . . . Some observers at the game said Manager Dressen pulled a boner by sending the big fellow in. . . . No one can recall the last time Derringer slid.
‘Secret’ Is Still Mystery; Meets Sonnenbery Next Hooded Grappler Tosses Numa With Favorite Toe Hold to Earn Bout With Former Champion. BY HARRISON MILLER Dynamite Gus Sonnenberg has let himself in on a big “Black Secret.'* The masked minstrel man of the mat earned himself a swat at the former Dartmouth Dynamiter last night by veiling his tactics long enough to defeat Leo Numa, the Seattle Adonis, in straight falls in the windup of the Hercules A. C. wrestling show at the Armory.
Consequents tne hooded hoodoo of the local mat will mix with Sonnenbero, former world heavyweight, champion, next Tuesday night. It was a foregone conclusion that the winner of last night’s tug-and-tus-sle affair would challenge Sonnenberg on next week's card. The former Dartmouth gridder, who introduced the flying tackle to the mat game, defeated Jumping Joe Savoldi in his last appearance here. Toe Hold Does It Black Secret, as much # a mystery to opponents as fans, has yet to contact the resin with his shoulders in eight local appearances. He refrorted to his favorite step-over toe hold to make lion-hearted Leo cry “uncle’* last night. After 50 minutes the minstrel man clamped his prize hold on Numa for the first fall. Midway in the fall, each grappler became irked with the rough tactics of his rival and squared off in a good old-fashioned slugging bee. Referee Buchanan put on an act reminiscent of a mammy singer on bended knee and outstretched hands entreating the ruffians to use open hands in their buffeting. Numa returned to the ring limping for the second fall and conceded the match after 2>4 minutes when the Black Secret applied a toe hold. Loses Two Decisions Jsck Morgan of Memphis lost two decisions in approximately three minutes in the semi-windup. Encountering the clever Ukranian Cossack. Count Paul Zarynoff. Morgan had his ire aroused when the titled grappler retreated from every attempted hold. Bouncing off the ropes, Morgan made a lunge only to have the Count side-'step his charge and pin him with a backdrop. Dissatisfied, Morgan charged back into the fray only to find that the Count had departed for a shower. Lunging at Referee Buchanan, he was met with a straight right hook and went down for his second count. In the preliminary Cliff Olsen and Eddie Newman graduated from the minor circuits to put on a toe-to-toe mauling majch. Olsen won the bout with a modified whip in 20 minutes.

Apostles Gain First Place at Expense of Tribesters ‘ as Louisville Defeats K. C. Wild Throws by Bluege and Sherlock Give Gabby Street’s Team Three Runs; Tinning’s Good Pitching Is Wasted When Infield Cracks. Times Special ST. PAUL, May 6—Serving his first season in the American Association as a manager, the veteran Gabby Street has lifted the Saints into No. 1 position in the race by winning ten consecutive games. The Apostles knocked off the Indians here yesterday, 3 to 1, in the series opener, and gained the league lead when Louisville trounced the Blues at Kansas City, 5-1.
The. Saints haven't lost a game since finishing on the short end of an 11-inning contest at Indianapolis on April 23. They had a narrow escape at the hands of the Hoosiers yesterday, however, and won only because the Tribe infield cracked wide open in the second stanza and presented the locals with the game. Page Dup Today Manager Killefer of the Tribesters planned to send Vance Page to the rubber in the contest at Lexington Park today. The series is' a three-game affair and the Indians will leave here tomorrow night for a long jump to Kansas City. Bud Tinning held the Apostles to six hits yesterday, but his fine pitching was wasted. In the second canto Otto Bluege and Vince Sherlock contributed wild throws that permitted three unearned markers to go over the plate. The lone hit of the inning was an infield bounder to Tinning. Throws to Right Field With a runner on first and one out, Bluege threw the ball into right field, and after Tinning walked Fenner intentionally, Sherlock took Pitcher Art Herring's easy grounder and made a wild heave to second. Two runs scored and Fenner tallied later on Stainbacker’s infield hit.

three miscues were chalked against the Tribe. The Indians' lone marker in the seventh was earned. Heath drew a pass, Berger singled and Riddle scored Heath with a single. Sherlock failed in the pinch and Tinning hit into a double play to retire the side. It ended the scoring for the day. Herring, like Tinning. was in form and gave up only six blows.
