By Eddie Ash REDSKINS CLIMB OVER COLONELS 000 ECKHARDT COLLECTS THREE HITS

'JpHE Indians have won five of the last six! On Thursday The Tribesters ousted the Columbus Red Birds from sixth place and last niprht took the Louisville Colonels into camp and climbed into fifth place. The old enthusiam is coming back to Perry Stadium as the lloosier pastimers fall into winning stride. Louisville was defeated in the series’ opener, 6-4, and the second skirmish will be staged under the lights tonight, followed by a double-header tomorrow afternoon. Jake Flowers, veteran infielder, has been obtained and will join the Killel'erites in Columbus on Monday. He played with Rochester last year and hit .274. Room on the roster was made for him by the sale of Outfielder Como Cotello to the Memphis Chicks of the Southern Association. Como has been with the Redskins since 1934. He was popular with the fans but was short on power at the plate.

LEFTY LOGAN turned back Burleigh Grimes’ Colonels last night in a tight squeeze. . . . Both clubs hammered out five hits in the third stanza to tally three times each. But Logan lasted while Ed Holley took the air. . . . Yank Terry, a former Indian tryout, relieved Holley and made it until the eighth when a final Tribe splurge sent him to the showers in favor of Dick Bass. AOO Ox Eckhardt paced the home attack with three hits to lift his batting average to 455. ... He was surrounded, as usual, by enemy defenders, but spanked the sphere so hard it couldn’t be flagged. ... He is becoming the fans’ delight. 000 Five bases were pilfered by the men Killefer, three going to Vincent Sherlock . . He snatched second and third in the second round and Logan also thefted second . . Both scored later . . Vince was batted in by Bluege and Logan by Fausett . . Buck got two blows, scored one run and socked in two. 000 DICK SIEBERT doubled in the eighth for the only extra-base hit of the tussle . . He also singled in the sixth . . The Tribe hit total was 12 to 8 for Louisville . . Bluege at short was kept busy and some of his plays called for rifle throws. Adair at second had plenty to do for the visitors. 000 Simons tried to go from first to third on Adair's single in the third and was pegged out from center by Fred Berger . . And Fausett was picked off first by Terry in the fourth . . Buck was getting ready to take off on a steal . . Too eager. 000 IT was an errorless contest. . . . Both clubs hustled and a crowd of 2300 was pleased. . . . Tonight's j game is to be sponsored by the Mothers’ Club of Orchard School and the free list has been suspended. .. . Stewart Bolen is the likely Tribe hurler. 000 Eckhardt made a headlong slide for second in the fifth, but was tagged out. . . . The big fellow was trying to break into the stolen base column. . . . Logan fanned six and issued no passes. . . . Siebert went deep for Rollings’ drive in the ninth . . . the ball was well hit. 000 WITH victory in sight Bob Logan tightened his belt and erased the last nine Colonels in order. . . . They didn't see the base lines after the seventh. . . . Frank Sigafoos, former Redskin, got a big hand from the crowd on his first appearance at the plate. He responded with a single and started his team off on a three-run drive. 000 WITH INDIANS AT BAT AB. H. IVt.

RESUME QUALIFICATIONS AT SPEEDWAY

Pilots Vie for 17 Remaining Race Positions Heavy Traffic Expected on 500-Mile Oval Today and Tomorrow. BY HARRISON MILLER Traffic is heavy between the garages and brick oval at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway today with nearly every one of the unqualified entries in the current speed classic rushing to the starting line for the acceleration and gasoline tests which last from 1 until sundown today and tomorrow. Meanwhile, drivers and mechanics in 16 other stalls complacently tinkered with motor parts on the chargers which have passed requirements for places in the starting lineup of the 33-car field which will battle for glory and gold here Memorial Day in the twenty-fourth annual 500-mile cavalcade of steel steeds. Following several days of comparative inactivity on the brick highway, 18 chargers circled the course yesterday in tune-up attempts for today's trials. With 17 places still unclaimed in the starting field, nearly every driver in Gasoline Alley plans to be on the track today for a qualification attempt or a fina> gasoline checkup. It is expected that approximately 15 chargers will take trials today and 10 more tomorrow. < It is estimated, too, that about a dozen chauffuers will be successful during the week-end, leaving five or less gaps to be filled in the rear lines when the eleventh hour trials are held Thursday from 4 to 7. Two former champions probably will be in the vanguard of the herd which stampedes the technical committee for an official turn around the two-and-one-half-mile saucer. Lou Meyer, the only double, winner still in competition, tnd Frea Frame, king of speedsters in 1932, are ready with their mounts. Meyer Overcomes Trouble Meyer, after three mechanical mishaps, has his Ring Free Special in satisfactory running order, and will be staging an assault on Tommy Milton’s all-time money-winning mark this year. Frame, who will team with Lou Moore, consistent runner-up, will be driving one of Moore’s Burd Piston Ring Specials Billy Winn, Detroit’s No. 5 ranking A. A. A. pilot, is a certain starter in his Harry Miller Special. Winn has spent five tedious weeks preparing his “alligator,” v/ith a cracked cylinder block keeping him from being on the track on the opening day Another pilot who has adjusted his speed buggy after a mishap is Maun Rose, Columbus (O.) dirt track ace Anew axle and larger steering studs have been added since he scraped the retaining wall last week. A1 Miller, last of the Boyle Products team to report at the line, is expected to be one of the “early birds” today. Chet Miller and “Wild Bill” Cummings passed requirements last week. “Deacon” Litz, who ran short of gas last week, has adjusted his “fuel drinker.” Harry McQuinn, local star of midget car tracks, is prepared for his fourth attempt at the 500-milc prize melon. McQuinn has been on the bricks daily with his Sampson Radio Special. Two Stars Are Set Two veterans who have placed in the money repeatedly and are set for today are Chet Gardner, nation’s No. 6 driver, and Russ Snowbergei, who has finished fifth on two occasions and eighth three other years. Others expected to appear are Frank Brisko, Roy Painter, Ray Pixley, Overton Snell, and Johnny Seymour. Included in the crowd which probably will not see action until tomorrow are Zeke Meyers, Hank Banks, Frank McGurk, Harry Huns Ralph Hepburn, George Bailey, A1 Putnam, Emil Andres and Luther Johnson. 000 TONY GULOTTA returned t'> Speedway City yesterday for the first time since his accident on the northwest curve a week ago. Tony is in shape ahead of the Gil Pirrung Special which is being repaired. He will not be able to make an attempt before Thursday. 000 JOHNNY SEYMOUR took the Sullivan-O’Brien Special out for a whirl and discovered more power under the hood than he expected. Seymour wound it up on the firs: lap at 119 miles an hour and held it near that point for several circuits. He went into a spin on the straight-away between the two south turns and pulled up after whirling around once in the middle of the track. Johnny has decided to “feel out” the car and the newasphalt covering of the turns. Joe Kinnally, former Butler University student, was riding with him. #OO SEVERAL of the drivers who plan to qualify still must pass Speedway drivers' tests. Hank Banks and Ken Fowler are two of <the outstanding newcomers who have not completed requirements. 000 RALPH DEPALMA. one of the early heroes of the annual auto sweepstakes, settled one argument yesterday. It had been taken for granted *that when Rex Mays grabbed the pole position for the second time last week, anew record had been set. DePalma, it is learned, held the coveted position four times “back in the good old days." STEELE THROWS LOPEZ Bp United Press SALT LAKE CITY. Utah, May 23. —Vincent Lopez.

SATURDAY, MAY 23, 1936

ALMOST worth its weight in gold, each drop of gasoline is measured with greatest caution at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. For three years, drivers have had to stay within a gas limit or all efforts are void. This year the allotment to each car is 3712 gallons for the 500-mile race, ?nd two and one-half gallons for the qualification runs. In the picture above. Charles Schneider is supervising the initial recording of the current trials while a garage mechanic pours the gasoline into the tank following the 25-mile test taken last Saturday by George Connor
