Indians Jump

To Top, Meet Millers Again

Tribesmen Now Are Tied With Minneapolis.

By Eddie Ash

BREAK UP the Indians! . . . There is joy in the Tribe wigwam as the boys get off to a winning start on the road. . , . Maybe they have chased the jinx. , . . At any rate, they hold a piece of the league lead and Manager Wes Griffin is enjoying the experience no end. It’s Griffin’s maiden venture as a starting pilot in Class AA and more power to him. . . , He slaved hard in the South and frequently donned the tools and caught batting practice to ease the burden on the regular receivers and lessen chances of injury, If the St. Louis Cardinal directors make good their promises to send player help to Columbus, and if the St. Louis Browns can dig UP a couple of good swatters for Toledo, the Red Birds and Mud

Hens will join forces with Indianapolis and Louisville in making the going tough for the four Western clubs,

Merely A Two-Club Race Last Year

LAST YEAR Kansas City and Minneapolis made it a two-club race. . . From all indications the 1940 Blues and Millers are going to find the new campaign a different story. Notice of stronger competition was served upon them in the 1939 playoff when both lost out in the first round, the Blues to the Indians, the Hillers to the Colonels.

SEVERAL 500-mile notables called a halt today on the feverish preparations for the motor classic and shoved off for Louisville to watch the Kentucky Derby and mill with the thousands of horse fans, The gasoline jockeys have a warm spot in their heart for the little fellows who ride the Derby colts under terrific pressure and with a fortune at stake. The ambition of all jockeys is to win the Derby, the ambition of all auto pilots is to win the five-century classic. . . . They are brothers under the skin. Coscarart Forges Way to Front ALMOST FORGOTTEN in the excitement of the Brooklyn Dodgers’ winning streak and Tex Carleton’s no-hitter is the sensational batting of Pete Coscarart. . Already several big league baseball scribes are insisting that Pete is the definite second base choice for this year's All-Star game in St. Louis. It Is said Coscarart bears the earmarks of developing into one of the leading second sackers of all-time. . . Manager Durocher says Pete is the best keystoner he has seen in the National League since Frankie Frisch, . . . Leo rates the old Fordham Flash as tops in his book.

Times Special MINNEAPOLIS, May 4.--The Indianapolis Indians are running a Derby of their own up here in the Northwest and are now deadlocked with the Minneapolis Millers for first place in the American Association race, The Tribe victory march now stands at four straight and the last two triumphs were achieved on the road at the expense of what used to be the Mauling Millers. In two days here, however, the Redskins stole the Millers’ thunder by collecting 19 hits in the first game and 10 in the second. Needless to say, the Hoosiers hoped to make it three in a row in the series finale at Nicollet Park this afternoon,

Play Saints Tomorrow

After today the Indians will cross the river and erect their wigwam at St, Paul for a three-game Set against the Saints at Lexington Park with action opening tomorrow. Pete Sivess, righthander, was flaunted at the Millers yesterday and emerged the winner, 8 to 1, holding Tom Sheehan's home guard to five blows, one a home run by | Lin Storti in the seventh. The Millers thought Manager Griffin would shoot another southpaw at them, but he crossed them up and his master-minding paid big dividends.

LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 4.—For a long time I've been wondering just what people meant by “horse sense.” Now [ know. Horses have sense enough not to read what is written about them in the sports pages. If Bimelech had read 1/50 of what has been written about him in the last few weeks he probably would be better fit for a glue bottle than the Kentucky ‘Derby. But Bimmy hasn’t the least idea of the load he is going to carry in the big race at Churchill Downs this afternoon just after the

pended on to win from a dozen to 15 games it would take the pennant, the Brooklyn club is making herculean efforts to get Sailor Bill Posedel back from the Bees. Larry MacPhail first went after Bill Lohrman of the Giants, but the proposition did not appeal to Bill Terry, whe is not any too well fixed on the mound himself, “For Posedel, the Dodgers have offered Gene Moore, Jimmy Ripple, a young pitcher, and an appreciable sum in cash. That is confession aplenty that a serious blunder was made when the Brooklyn club traded the former sailor for Al Todd. Al last winter was sent to the Cubs for Gus Mancuso and Newel Kimball, For the Boston club last season, Posedel won 15 and lost 13, with an earned run mark of 3.91.”

Shipped Away On Flimsy Charge

“IT WAS on a rather flimsy charge that MacPhail and leo Durocher shipped Posedel to the Bees. It was stated that Posedel sputtered to much temperament, and had a dislike for pitchingbatting practice. “Durocher insisted that in hurling to teammates Posedel cut down on his speed and stuff, but Bill maintained he was being asked to prostitute his talents and jeopardize his future. So off to the Hub went Bill, and now Leo and Larry are sorry. " ® * “In 1937, Posedel won 21 and lost 12 for Portland, and was sold to the Dodgers for $17,500. The next season the Dodgers worked Posedel in 33 games, and he won eight and lost nine, with an earned run mark of no better than 5.66. “His transfer to the Bees aroused the temperamental sailor, and

Tommy Vaughn displays the five medium and short irons. That's the No. 5 club on the extreme right and the No. 9 on the extreme left with the three intermediate sticks placed between. You will notice how the loft is increased and shaft shortened from No. 5 club to the No. 9.
