As Saints Rock Brewers

Sweep Series to Regain Top Spot With 2'/,-Game Advantage Over Milwaukee TOLEDO, July 26—It was like pavday on the Wabash for the|

Indianapolis Indians over the week-end as they completed the| slaughter of the Mud Hens and made a flying leap back into the|

American Association lead.

Who's afraid of the big, burly Brewers? Not St. Paul, at any!

rate. While the Hoosier Redskins

three week-end games here, the Saints gave them an assist into first place by plastering three defeats on Milwaukee in St. Paul. Now, Al Lopez's Tribesters are ou’ in front by two and one-half games, having come from behind a one-half game deficit to soar into the AA stratosphere. This is the Indians’ third hitch in the league's top spot and the boys vow they'll stay, up there this time and defy any rival to shake them off the pennant perch. Soft Going The Redskins found the Toledo club easy pickings and had no trouble Sweeping the four-game . The Tribesters have yet to lose in Toledo this season, in eight starts, and have defeated the Hens 11 times in 16 clashes. The Indians’ pitchers over the week-end, all working complete games, were Chet Johnson, Saturday night, and Cal McLish and Jack Hallett yesterday. Two weeks ago, Johnson, the southpaw, then with Toledo, defeated the Indians, who lost no time buying his contract. And on Saturday, Johnson beat Toledo, 8 to 1, as he held his old mated to eight scattered hits. In yesterday's first game, Me. Lish scattered seven hits an goose-egged the Mud Hens,'s to 0, for his fourth shutout of the season. He has won nine games and lost six.

Fifteen Blows Hallett allowed nine hits in the Sabbath second tilt, seven innings, hit the Indians pounded out 15 and won, 10 to 7. The Redskins built up a 10-run lead before the Toledo pastimers got going. The Hens also made three errors as they tried in vain to salvage one game out of the series. Recapturing first place after being out of it only three days, the Indians welcomed today’s open date before they invade Columbus to battle the fourth-place Red Birds in a four-game series starting tomorrow. The Tribestefs return home after Friday to take on Milwaukee next week-end, in a single game Saturday night and in a doubleheader Sunday afternoon. On the current trip the Redskins have won nine and lost five to maintain their marvelous road record which now stands at 28

were making a sweep of the |

at-home record, of course, is one| of the best, showing 37 victories| and 17 setbacks. But their closest rival, the Brewers, are “home bodies” only, since their road record is largely minus. They have won only 18 and lost 29 on foreign fields!

and only 11 losses at home.

double-header sweep of the season here yesterday. Ted Beard, the Indians’ flashy, rookie rightfielder, reached the century mark in runs scored and;

leading the league in both depart-| ments. His batting average also climbed over the .300 mark. Tom Saffell, the other rookie outfielder, also shoved his batting average above .300. Jack" Cassini pilfered another sack, his 28th, one more than last year’s high in the American Association.

Pete Smacks Homer

The Tribesters touched off the afternoon’s scoring in the second inning of the first game when Pete Castiglione smacked a home run. They threw a cluster of three in the fifth when Jack Cassini d|worked the squeeze play for one marker and Culley Rikard hit a double that batted in two mates. Rikard belted a triple in the eighth and rode home on Castiglione’s scoring fly. In the ninth, the Redskins tallied their sixth and last run when a balk was called on pitcher Bu" Ross with the bases loaded. In the second encounter, the Indians got busy in the first canto and chalked up a pair of markers. They continued the blasting and added four tallies in the third and four in the fourth. The Hens, blanked for 12 innings, including the first game, solved Hallett's oiferings in the fourth inning and rallied for four runs. Frank Mascuso rapped out a two-run homer for Toledo. The home team splurged again in the seventh and last frame and

scored markers before Hallett pulled | himself together. He “balked” one run in and

George Binks batted in two before the curtain fell. Only about 2000 fans showed up for the twin bill. The Hens are but one-half

English sports writers and fans) considered tonight's bout one of the most important ever staged in the British Isles. They appreciated that Lesnevich was the No. 1 man in world boxing since the professed retirement of Heavyweight Champion Joe Louis. And

Mills, a wild-swinging clubfighter, scored several victories since the Lesnevich defeat; but he was knocked out by Americans Joe Baksi and Lloyd Marshall.

Menno I. Leahman Resigns As 'Y' Athletic Director

+ Plans to Leave Post Sept. 1 to Enter

Business After 23 Years in Youth Work

By BILL PITTMAN THERE WAS bad news in the wind for much of Indianapolis’

youth and a great many of the city’s businessmen today with the announcement of the resignation of Menno I. Leahman, health and

wa rtpcky, {athletic director of the Indianapolis YMCA.

Mr. Leahman will leave wy 1 to take over a printing estab-

lishment in Berne, Ind., after 2 of which were in his present position here. He came to Indianapolis in December, 1943. He has been the main instrument in the success of the local YMCA'’s many athletic and health education programs during the years he has spent here, » - » HE HAS carried on and embellished the programs installed by his predecessors such as the heglth club, the noontime business men’s volley ball games, the YMCA junior baseball and basketball programs, learn to swim week, and he was also instrumental in getting the local YMCA one of the finest swimming coaches in the Midwest. The man who has been named to.take his place is as well known to the youth of the YMCA as Mr. Leahman, having been the director of the Flat Rock YMCA camp near St. Paul, Ind, for Iseveral years, and is now assistant health and athletic director. He is John Wilson. The man at the YMCA who makes more splash than the retiring Mr. Leahman is George E. Madera, swimming coach and instructor.. # . ” MR. MADERA came to the Indianapolis YMCA ir February, 1946, after four years in the Navy aboard PT boats, Before joining the Navy he had been a

Financially,

With Enough Cash in

the 1948 Olympic games, which Thursday, have already made

atmosphere of mounting excitement and tension, British officials discovered that the pound-sterling lequivalent of $2 million has been received so far for tickets, The ) the could go would be $3,200,000 if every seat were sold for every event. But, because events such as field hockey and basketball are not expected to lure full houses, offi-} cials are certain that sum will not be reached, However, the traditional last-minute rush was yet to come and it looked like that would be pure profit. Sneak Preview Actually, _ the 14th Olympic games of modern times will get under way today with two soccer games providing a “sneak preview.” The matches, designed to fix up an uneven field for the first round, pits Eire against Holland and Luxembourg against Afghanistan. The United States won’t swing into action in soccer until a week from today when it meets the tough Italian team. Meanwhile, the U. S. track and field team was becoming more and more ‘annoyed because they cannot work out at Wembley Stadium where the official running, jumping and throwing will be done starting on Friday. They are anxious to get in sogne practice there, because the track is a new oval made of crushed red tile and clay and may have an unfamiliar “feel.” Demand Practice Session British officials say, however, that the strip is not quite ready for use and that every available minute must be used for workman to put on the _ finishing touches. The Yanks accepted this excpse at face value until they discovered that the workmen had toiled until only 4 p. m. Satur-

YMCA. Two of his boys, Art

were members of the 1936 Olympic swimming team. Since he has been here Mr. Madera’s teams have at one time or another captured about every record in sight, at least in the state YMCA set-up. They were defending champions in both the senior and junior divisions of the state YMCA indoor ch ps this year, but did not complete because Mr. Madera, who admits to the reputation of “slave driver” felt that the boys were not in shape for stiff competition.

AS HE puts it, “Je they can’t practice they can’t win. At least they can’t swim for me.” In the opinion of many people that statement adds up to trouble for such rivals as the Indianapolis Athletic Club and the

coach at the San Francisco) Lindegren and Ralph Gilman,

day. Now, led by Coach Crowwell, they have renewed demands for at least one practice session. The Americans also complained that the hop, step and jump pit at their camp was too short. British officials say nothing can be done about that. The Yank pole vaulters have had a lot of their prize sticks broken, but more are being flown here by air. The British press has freely predicted victory for the Americans in track and field and now they are also picking the Yanks to regain the world swimming supremacy they lost to Japan in 1936. Writers singled out 17-year-old Jimmy McLane of Akron, O., for special praise, giving him 'a good chance to beat France's ace Alex Jany in the 400-meter free style.

horse who parlayed a gallant heart and a series of whirlwind finishes: into the greatest money winning career in racing history, was retired today because of a broken ankle pone.

When he limped home a. poor fourth in the $25,000 added Monmouth Handicap Saturday, he Pp earned. $1500 to boost his life!® time winnings to $911,335. At first, trainer Hirsch Jacobs thought that Mrs, Ethel D. Jacobs’ pride had merely pulled up lame. ‘ X-rays, however, showed a hreak in the horse's seismoid bone. The mishap in his 126th start cost the once ignored plater his chance to become the first race horse ever to win $1 million.
