Miller Named

»President as

Perry Retires

Tribe’s New Executive Setup Hopes to Build Winner © At Stadium.

Announcement that Ray Schalk had signed a new one-year contract to serve as field manager of the _ Indianapolis Indians came today on the heels of an earlier announcement that Norman A. Perry had relihquished his office as Tribe president and is disassociating himself. from all ‘active connection with the ‘operation of the baseball club. Leo T. Miller, general manager last:season under the Perry regime, as acquired a stock interest in Indianapolis Baseball Club, Inc. d has been elected president and general ‘manager. Dale Miller stays on as secretary, Karl. Scheick,- as treasurer, and they, with Leo Miller, comprise the board of directors.

; Park Is Leased : The change in the executive setup ‘pertains only to the ball club and has no bearing on the real estate. Perry Stadium Inc. owns the

park and leases the premises to thel ©

ball club. - Perry Stadium Inc. and the Indianapolis Baseball Club Inc. are separate organizations. The working agreement with the Cincinnati: Reds, although announced previously, is the first major< move by the Tribe's new setup! according to Leo Miller. The Reds are. well supplied with young talent and a player reservoir will be created for the Indians. Next year will be the eighth congecutive for Leo Miller and Ray Schalk - to work as a team. They were together at Buffalo six years before transferring to Indianapolis last winter. Host to All-Stars

Under their direction, the Indians advanced from . sixth place to fourth, paced the ,American Asso-

ciation or remained close to the top until the middle of July, brought the A. A. All-Star game to Indianapolis for the first time and set an attendance record for the league’s midseason classic. Norman A. Perry took over the presidency of the Indians 10 years ago following the death of his brother, James A. Perry, who purchased the franchise in 1927 from the late William C. Smith. Pioneer of night baseball in the American Association at old Washington ‘Park, Norman A. Perry later: built the modern stadium and set. a new mark for other clubs to shéot at by making the Indianapolis ball park the most attractive in the league at an approximate cost of $450,000 and with several acres of free parking space for the fans.

Casey Boys

Steve (Crusher) Casey and two of his brothers, James and Timothy, invade the Armory next Tuesday night where they have agreed to pounce upon any mat opponent tossed their way. The “Crusher” headlines the bill. Matchmaker Lioyd Carter figures that the three Sneem, County Kerry, Ireland grappling stars one of the best attractions he has offered here in a long time. They have been appearing before large crowds since coming to the United States on Oct. 22. All are six feet tall with a combined weight of 860 pounds. Steve was rated tops in the heavyweight game until a few months ago when the National Wrestling Association placed Everett Marshall in first place. Steve is undefeated in two years of mat action in the United States and numbers Marshall as one of his victims, Tom (Powerhouse) Sawyer, former University of Southern California grid player, will tackle Steve. Sawyer .has dropped but one local match and that being a close one to Louis Thesz. Opponents for Timothy and James have not been

here in the city limits and hundreds of coveys of quail and thouof pheasants in Marion Rabbits are fat and in good condition. Some were. seen who were only half grown. Quail are large, fat and plump with a number of them not full size.” Again, many hunters say the season opens 15 #0 20 days too early. It has been too warm the first few days of the season in the past several years. Yesterday the weather was too warm for hunting, both for the hunters and their dogs. The continued dryness made it hard on both the bird and rabbit dogs.

Herds of Deer Sighted

In the southern part of the state several herd of deer were seen by hunters who had “buck ague.” While deer are protected in Indiana the nimrods could not have fired if they wanted to. . There are a number of factors entering into the plentiful supply of game this season. The state has had abundant water. The fight against crows and foxes in the northern part of the state has given all wild life a chance to increase. Many cities, clubs and county organizations have reported from half a dozen to 25 or 30 foxes killed in their vicinity this season. The annual crow contests undoubtedly help. 3 The abundance of pheasant is noticeable only in the northern section of the state. Practically all of the birds planted by game and conorganizations in the southern region have disappeared. In the northeastern section some

Inbreeding Harms Birds

survivors gradually lose their size. The Indiana Wildlife Federation today urged hunters to aid in keeping Hoosier quail superior. “When a covey rises in front of you, don’t hound them until the last bird is taken,” the Federation urged. “Leave half a dozen, eight or 10 and by the time the hunting season is over, there will be two or three left from that covey. These will probably be the strongest and hardiest birds of the covey. These survivors inbreed the next season. You can see why we are raising better quail under this system.” In addition the various clubs and the Conservation Department are

o raising many kinds of birds which

are intermingled with the others, increasing the numbers and the quality of the birds. From these reports hunters who were unable to get out yesterday. will have plenty of game left during the season.

Mikkelsen was slated for action, however. {ch Warren Huffman was shifted to halfback from the quarter and Berling moved into that spot.
