VITT FOLLOWS AN OLD CUSTOM
CASE OF KELTNER STANDS OUT
EN KELTNER’S immediate success at third base with the Cleveland Americans recalls the old contention that big league managers can’t help concentrating on the positions they once played themselves, or the things they did best. Oscar Vitt was a third baseman in his major league days—and a good one—so there was no trouble at all in smoothing the rough spots on the rookie up from Milwaukee. Max Carey was the greatest base stealer in his day, and when he piloted the Brooklyn Dodgers he had sluggers like Hack Wilson and Lefty O’Doul practice starts off first and second. ® = ” 8 2 ” OGERS HORNSBY was one of the greatest hitters the game ever knew, and the one thing he stressed during his big league managerial career was batting. . . . And now he'll try to teach the Lookouts of Chattanooga how to comb the horsehide, since he was appointed manager there the other day. John McGraw was a third sacker so he couldn't help riding Freddie Lindstrom about how to play the hot corner. ... It was only human nature. . .. But sometimes their efforts proved a boomerang. But not with Oscar Vitt, whose work has produced the prize rookie in the American League. s 2 ” 2 = 2

In Thrilling Duel; Locals Lose in Ninth.
After coming close to winning a game on one hit last night the Indianapolis Indians were not as
downhearted today as the Perry Stadium customers, and the Redskins felt that old hunch that they are due to break out in a rash of base blows tonight and massacre the Columbus Red Birds. Despite the 2-to-1 defeat the Schalkmen maintained their league lead of a half a game and plan to don some fresh war paint in the series finale with the Birds and cling to that meager margin in the battle for the American Association No. 1 position. The situation is this: The Tribesters are a half a game ahead of St. Paul and just one game ahead of Kansas City, the preseason pennant favorite. The Saints “kindly” lost to Milwaukee yesterday and the Blues trounced the Minneapolis Millers with a sensational home run attack, all of which left the Indians
(out in front, but “closely pursued.”
Gets His Orders
Jack Tising, the slender right-
| hander obtained from Louisville re- | cently, is slated to draw the Tribe
mound assignment tonight and he is reported in good shape for the task. He spent a lot of time shagging balls in the outfield late yesterday, and after working up a copious sweat he received orders to take it easy and point himself to face the Red Birds tonight. The Indians will go on the road again after tonight's tilt and perform in Toledo tomorrow and Thursday, after which they will hop backs to Perry Stadium for skirmishes with Louisville on Friday and Saturday before taking off for Derbytown to meet the Colonels in a week-end holiday series. It's a scrambled schedule, but since it's the American Association's first experiment with the four-trip plan it
| will have to stand for 1938 and until | the schedule experts fathom a bet-
ter scheme, All Home Teams Lose
In the dog-eat-dog, A. games yesterday
topsy-turvy and last
| night not a single home team fin-
ished in front. Only five and a half games separate the first five clubs today and the struggle is attracting the interest of the baseball world. The contest here was a sample of
the “bitter battle” under way in the |
Midwest's big minor circuit. Vance Page, a 10-game winner, opposed the husky Nate Andrews of Columbus and it was a hitless conflict until the sixth inning. Some fans were pulling for a “double no-hitter” as the swingers on both sides went up to the plate and passed out. Page retired 15 batsmen in order before a runner reached base and Andrews, after a shaky start in the frame, seftled down and chucked big league ball.
Andy Pilney drew a walk as first initial |
up for the Tribe in the stanza and followed his usual pro-
| cedure by pilfering ~econd. A wild
pitch uncorked by Andrews put Pilney on third and Buck Fausett then drew a free ticket. The Columbus hurler tightened and Latshaw stroked into a double play, first to short and back to first, Pilney scoring, and Chapman bounced out to retire the side. The one run looked safe for the Indians as both pitchers continued their duel and the battle entered the ninth with the Redskins out in front, 1 to 0.
After Danny—Then! Danny Taylor, Indianapolis’ left
fielder last year, was sent up to bat | for Pitcher Andrews to open the
Columbus ninth and was tossed out by Sherlock. King then pot a lucky double down the left-field line which was only inches fair and the Red Birds went into raptures as they sensed a “break.” Bucher lofted a Texas Leaguer near the same spot and the ball escaped Andy Pilney who tried for a shoe-string catch. King scored the tieing run on the blow and Bucher got a double out of his safety and raced to third when Pilney’s throwin to Shortstop Mattick was low and rolled away from the infield defenders, Morgan then slashed a single to center which tallied Bucher with the run which won the game for Columbus. George Hader worked on the Columbus mound in the ninth and protected his club’s one-run lead. First hit off Page: A dribbler over second by Pat
cision. First and only hit off Andrews: A low liner to right by Bill Baker in the sixth on which Browne tried for a shoe-top catch and missed. Andrews issued three walks, struck out four and had a wild pitch in eight innings, allowing one run and one hit; Hader issued one walk, tallied one strikeout and no hits in one inning; Page allowed six hits (only one in the first seven innings), issued no walks and struck out three.
The attendance at the Tribe park last night was approximately 5900.
Leo Miller, general manager of the Indians, and Clarence Rowland, chief scout for the Chicago Cubs, both deny that a deal has been arranged for the sale of Vance Page to the Bruins. However, it is believed something is in the air toward that end because of a rumored “leak” which Miller is trying to run down.

Johnny Allen Going After | His Tenth Straight Vie- | tory Today.
By GEORGE KIRKSEY
United Press Staff Corresnondent NEW YORK, June 28.—Johnny | Allen, Cleveland's big right hander who won 15 straight last year and finished with the highest winning
| percentage in the history of the American League, already has spun another imposing string, and goes after his 10th consecutive today. With his team riding a four-game lead, Allen, who lost only the last game of the season in 1937 for a winning average of .938, will work against the Tigers. After losing the opening game of 1938 to the Browns, Allen has beaten Detroit and New York twice each, bowled over the Athletics three times, and scored over Chicago and Washington once each. Allen and young Bob Feller, who { scored his ninth victory against two | defeats yesterday, are two reasons why Oscar Vitt has been able to keep the heretofore erratic Cleveland Indians at the top of the standings since May 19. Feller set back the Red Sox with seven hits as Cleveland drove Bob Grove from the mound to score a 7-3 victory yesterday. The triumph increased Cleveland's lead one-half game to four over the idle Yankees, Boston, in third place, lost a full game and now trail the leaders by 5's games. In the only other major league game yesterday—a battle between the current cellar candidates—the seventh nlace White Sox beat the last place Browns, 9-4. The veteran Ted Lyons allowed nine hits to shove

The first two positions have been conceded by the experts to Lawrin and Dauber, and any other contest will be strictly for ‘show money. Three horses originally regarded as possible starters have dropped out. They were Governor Chandler, winner of the Illinois Derby, who has not responded to training; Myron Selznick's Cain’'t Wait, third at Churchill Downs, but still in the East, and Bert Baroni’s Specify, scheduled to stay in the barns because the distance is too long for his liking.

West's Power Too Much for Big 10 Thinlies
Californians Take Meet 101, To 35; Fenske’s Victory Is Bright Spot.
EVANSTON, Ill, June 28 (U, P). ~The American Olympic Committee can save a lot of expense, fuss and bother simply by trucking the Pae cific Coast Conference all-star track team to Japan for the 1940 games,
the Big Ten conceded today. For sheer power, the Midwest has seen nothing like it. Running in the twilight in Dyche Stadium yestere day, this powerhouse squad from the Far West breezed through 16 events almost without opposition from the Big Ten’s best and rolled up a 101« t0-35 victory in the second of their intersectional series. They finished one-two-three in five events. They won both the ree lays on the program. They set four of the five new meet records. They won 12 of the 16 medals. They did everything they set out to do but win the one-mile run and there, Charles (Chuck) Fenske, bespece tacled Wisconsin senior, regained all his lost prestige by defeating dee cisively his conqueror, Louis Zame perini of Southern California.
A Very Smart Race
It was a slow mile—4:209—but a smart one and Fenske out-maneue vered the Trojan sophomore every step of the way, It was the first de« feat in Zamperini’s career as a miler, but he was soundly whipped. Fenske stepped away quickly in the last 150 vards and as he flashed past the stands for the last time, he left { Zamperini puffing 12 yards behind. Head and shoulders above the brilliant field for the day at least was Arnold Nutting, California's veteran sprinter, who set new meet
Leads Advance
‘Helen Jacobs and Alice | Marble Also Win.
| WIMBLEDON, England, June 28 and there still is room for one more | (U, P.) —Led by Mrs. Helen Wills
| Moody, who is in quest of her eighth
title, three Californians advanced today to the semifinals of the all-
England Tennis Championship and a fourth United States contestant was defeated. Alice Marble and former champion Helen Jacobs were the other Californians to reach the round of four, The losing American was Mrs. Sarah Palfrey Fabyan of Brookline, Mass. The Californians won in straight
sets, while Mrs, Fabyan carried her opponent to a third set before the
issue was decided. Mrs. Moody scored a decisive 6-2, 6-1 victory over Kay Stammers, | lefthanded English player. Even | more impressive was the 6-2, 6-3 victory scored by Miss Jacobs over Jadwiga Jedrzejowska of Poland. Miss Marble won as she pleased over Mrs. Rene Mathieu of France. The scores were 6-2, 6-3. In the fourth quarterfinal match Mrs. Fabyan bowed out, 4-6, 6-4, 6-4, to Mrs. Hilde Sperling of Denmark, In the semifinals Mrs. Moody will play Mrs. Sperling, who last week conquered her in the London tennis chimpionships. In the other half of the draw Miss Jacobs and Miss Marble will meet. It will be a contest of two former holders of the U. S. title, with Miss Marble the favorite, If Mrs. Sperling and Miss Jacobs should win their semifinal matches they would have their second meeting in the championship round of the all-England. They met in the final round in 1936, Miss Jacobs winning.
Lynch Favored To Retain Title
GLASGOW, Scotland, June 28 (U, P.) —Benny Lynch of Scotland was only a slight favorite today to retain his world flyweight champion-
ship against Jackie Jurich of San Jose, Cal, in a 15-round title bout tomorrow night,
records in both the 100-yard dash and broad jump. He ran the 100 in 9.7 and retained his broad jump | title by leaping 25 feet, 2 inches. | Jim Humphries, Southern Calie | fornia hurdler, accounted for the first meet record with a mark of 14.3 seconds in the 120-yard high hurde les and red-haired Earl Vickery, another Trojan, added the fourth one by running a sparkling race in the 220-yard low hurdles in 22.9 seconds. The one new meet record credited to the Big Ten went as expected to Walter Mehl, another Wisconsin dise tance star, who has lost only one two-mile race all year. He ran all his foes into the ground with a tremendous final quarter and fine ished in 9:13.5. Other champions: Ray Malott of Woodrow Strode, U, C. L. A., shote put (50 feet, 3% inches): Dave Ale britton, Ohio State, high jump (@ feet, 6% inches); Jack Emigh, Mone tana, 220-yard dash (21.3 seconds) ; George Varoff, Oregon, pole vaulted 14 feet, 2 inches: Fenske won the half-mile in 1:53.2, and Pete Zagar, Stanford, threw the discus 158 feet, 5 inches.
