SOUTHERN INDIANA DAY PLANS

x »

COLONELS TO HONOR HOOSIERS

FTER dropping 14 games in 19 starts in the West, ~ Wade Killefer's Indians were aboard the Headache Special en route to Louisville today. . . . Thoughts of “what might have been” probably kept the boys restless and worried over the slender chance of landing in the American Association playoff series which is good for some added “sugar” to the four participating teams . .. Three games are to be played in Derbytown, one tomorrow afternoon and two Sunday, and since the Redskins have trounced the Colonels 12 times in 16 clashes this season there is a measure of encouragement to start a drive for fourth place. Southern Indiana Day is to be celebrated in Louisville on Sunday and fans there are going to put it on in a big way in spite of the low position of the two clubs . . . Choice seats will be available for any Indianapolis rooters who wish to sit in on the occasion and watch the traditional rivals battle-. . . Jeffersonville, New Albany, Bedford, Seymour, Sellersburg and other southern Indiana communities will have delegations on hand . It's an

annual event. =

HE Colonels have snatched a couple of star players from the southern part of the Hoosier state in recent vears, namely Billy Herman, now of the Chicago Cubs, from New Albany, and Wayne l.aMaster, chunky southpaw chucker with the Philly Nationals, from Sellersburg. . Preceding the first game Sunday, which will start at 1:30, ceremonies honoring the Hoosier fans will enliven the celebration at Parkway Field . The Indians have won seven out of eight games in the Kentucky city this year,

Xo SHERLOCK is the only member of the Indians who has plaved in all games this season. . . . Evidently dissatisfied when Bill Terry of the New York Giants selected Ben Cantwell instead of him, for a major league comeback, Don Brannan, veteran righthander with the Jersev City Giants, turned in his uniform... . He told the club officials he planned to go fishing in Maine, where he resides at Augusta. . Bill Thomas, righthanded hurler who tore up his uniform in the Seattle clubhouse two weeks ago and was shipped to the Western International League as a disciplinary measure, was sold by Seattle to Portland the other day. The working agreement between Oakland and the New York Yankees expires at the end of this season and reports indicate that it will not be renewed, now that the Yankees have taken cover the

Kansas City club. Sn HALE, former Indianapolis third baseman, is managing the Pampa. Tex. semipro team. ... In a game at Denver recently Hale was spiked on the face and hands and a fist-swinging riot occurred. . . . It required 15 minutes for police and umpires to restore order. . . . Ted McGrew, Indianapolis, a Brooklyn scou!, is looking 'sm over in the Southern Association. .. . Jim Bottomley, manager of the Browns, and Charlie Ruffing. Yankee pitcher, both products of Nokomis, Ill., will be honored Aug. 27 at Sportsman's Park, St. Louis, by the fans of their home city.
