Club to Train

Here; Release Leo Hartnett

By EDDIE ASH Times Sports Editor

Owen Joseph Bush, part owner and president of the Indianapolis baseball club, today became its war- § time field manager as well, succeed- |. ing the jovial Leo (Gabby) Hartnett, |: who was released after serving one season in the dual capacity of skip- § per and catcher. § Al Schlensker, secretary of the | Indians, announced the change inf i the baseball set-up at Victory field for the duration. Tribe officials are! going on the theory league baseball will receive the green light for 1943 | from the government and they are taking a head start in preparing for| next season. The change-over at the ball park was simple. President Bush released Hartnett and named himself to the pilot post. And so it’s Manager Ownie Bush again. He's been out of active harness for some time but now feels capable of tackling the job. His: health has returned and his first! move in re-establishing himself in the national pastime was taken last | December when he and Frank E. McKinney purchased the Indian apolis American association fran-| chise from Norman A. Perry Sr.

Back to “Dugout and Lines

As president and part owner, Bush spent the past season squirming in the Victory field grandstand. The “old pepper” of his playing days and his other managerial days was back but he couldn't shout and “crab” in the grandstand to his liking and it was hard to take. ’ «I am fully determined to return to the dugout and coaching lines,” said Bush today. “I can’t remain away from the baseball heat any longer and I know Tl feel a lot better working with the players, mapping the Indians’ strategy and perhaps ‘telling off’ an umpire now and then.” Secretary Schlensker added that it is part of the club’s retrenchment policy for the duration owing to the increasing yncertainties involvng professional sports due to transportation after gas rationing and the military draft status of players in 1943. Tribe to Train at Home

Another retrenchment and wartime measure will be spring training at home by the 1943 Tribesters. Florida is out for the duration in so far as the Indianapolis club is concerned. Secretary Schlensker intends to invite a big league .club to train here with the Indians and play exhibition games. The big league part of the Tribe program is just a thought at this time.

YOUTH holds an edge on experience—in numbers, anyway—among the goaltenders in the American Hockey league this season, a perusal of the lineups of the eight clubs divided between the Eastern and Western di-

visions, reveals. Bill Bell, of the Buffalo Bisons, is the baby of the cage guardians. s+ + He is the 17-year-old youngster who is being tried out by Eddie Shore, and thus far his work has been more than satisfactory, as _ the Bisons’ record of five wins and one defeat bears out. Other goalies who come within the youthful category: Floyd Perras of the Indianapolis Capitols, Jimmy Franks of the Pittsburgh Hornets, Nick Damore of the Hershey Bears, and Paul Gauthier of the Washington Lions. ’ 4 The veteran trio is made up of Alex Wood of the New Haven Eagles, who has taken over in place of Lloyd Storie who was on loan from Cleveland and who looks promising; Mike Karakas of the Providence Reds, and Bill Beveridge of the Cleveland Barons. ~~ At the current writing, Beveridge has the lowest goals against ‘mark, 11 in six games. . , . Damore is next in order with a record of only 15 enemy goals in six games... . Karakas follows with 18 _ in six games, Perras with 19 in seven, young Bell with only 20 in + ‘seven games. .

Hoople Picks Freshie On All-America
