Manager Sutherland has collected a fast aggregation of ball players to represent Whiting this season with one of the fastest semi-pro teams in the Calumet district. All of the home games will be played at Forsyth Field. Most of the players which compose the personnel of this team are well known to many of the baseball fans of the region. They include such stars as Greisel. formerly of the Milwaukee American Association club. Cole, Zart. TJust, and Kross of last year's Red Sox; Connelly is a Three Eye leguer, and Ogren was with the Black Sox last season.

All of these men are employed at the Whiting refinery of the Standard Oil Company, and will play under the name of the Whiting Red Crowns, representing the Standard Oil Athletic Association. Fast semi-pro clubs of Chicago will be the Sunday attraction at all of the home games. Manager Sutherland Is an experienced and popular player himself, having established his name firmly in the local baseball history by managing many of Whiting's powerful baseball nines of former rears. Under his able guidance this new organization r.hall surely establish a favorable record and also- uphold the prestige and popularity established by other Red Crown teams of the Stan'dard Oil Athletic Association.

LOCAL BOYS ENTER PORTER RACK SUNDAY Overland-Fudge & Frontenac Ford to Compete with Oldfield's Car. Four Lake county boys have entered their cars against the powerful speed -buggies of Louis Disbrow, Hal Waters, "Speed" Clancy and Claypool in the auto races on the Porter dirt track Sunday at Chesterton. This will add local interest to the greatest races held in this part of the state since the famous Globe Cup classic at Crown Point years ago. The local boys are Newman of Hobart. Harris and Bradjey of Hammond and Leonard of East Chicago. The first two are driving cars they have 'built themselves, the third a Frontenac Ford and the fourth an Overland-JFudge racing special. Bith the Frontenac Ford and the Overland-Fudge racer are said to negotiate a mile in less than .52. There will be over a hundred thousand dollars worth of automobile engines in the race alone. The engines in the cars to be driven by the professional racers each cost $16,000 to $18,000. Disbrow will drive Barney Oldfiled's famous "Sunbeam" car, the dirt track champion. The eighteen cars entered will compete first In elimination trials. Major League Clubs Standing AMERICAN LKACl'E W L Pet.

HOW ABOUT THIS JACKOLD BEAN? The Boys Say You Were Lucky When You Rolled That 254 Score.

A petition to contest the awarding of the Otto Fifield bowling prlie to Jack Croak has been filed with the Hammond Bowling association. It is charg-ed that Mr. Croak when he achieved the high score of 254 was aided materially by a friendly pin boy with a rake. It is also alleged that Jack had a four-leaf clover between Ns teeth, a horseshoe In the left hip trousers' pocket and a rabbit's foot behind his right ear lobe. According to the petition, Mr. Croak fell down three times, skidded past the stove twice and that two balls after rolling in the gutter jumped out and made ten strikes. Roy McCool, president extraordinary of the Bowling association, announced today -that he would overrule the remonstrances and award the prize to Croak. "Although it is apparent that Mr. Croak was Indeed fortunate In attaining a high score of 254 considering the fact that he had never bowled before this season," Mr. McCool said, "and although it is improbable that he will ever bowl so high again if he lives to be 119 years old, I have decided to grant the prize. I believe everyone will admire Mr. Croak's nerve In accepting the prize." The Lansing school baseball team added another victory to their list on "Wednesday. This was a hotly contested game, and was finished only after numerous needless arguments. The boys very much regret that they presented such a pame for their friends among the fans, but feel that they were Justified in their attitude. The final score was four to three, in favor of Lansing. Our last game will be with the Wentworth boys on Friday or next week. A game with Wentworth is always hotly contested, for the tw.) schools have so far put into the leld teams of almost equal, strength. Donf forget that the festival this year will be held at Glenwood on the twenty-sixth of May. This promises to be by far the greatest event of its kind ever attempted, among schools not incorporated under one city system. The big parade of school children in Division Seven is a spectacle alone of great magnitude. There will be two or three bands There will be presented a pageant of Cook county and Illinois history. In this pageant each school portrays a certain phase of history. Lafnsfing presents a,rly explorers, typified by Marquette and Joliet. About sixty from this school are entered, and possibly more will be enrolled later. The presentation of this spectacle calls for some costumes. The teachers are appreciative of what the patrons have done in securing costumes for their children, and will be thankful for any other aid that they will see fit to land. The only way the teachers can show their appreciation, is to make Lansing's part of the pageant a complete success. The athletic feature has been reduced this year, so that 'all the events can be run oft in good shape. These events will not be interspersed with games a sthey have been formerly, so that interruption will not ofTe itself. Furthermore, only pne cdntfcstaait from each class will be entered this year. That will mean that the eyent will be handled much more rapidly. Mr. F. G. Blair, state superintendent of public instruction, has promised to be present, and his speech will be a decided addition to the progranj. All things considered this promises to hf a wonderful occasion . Lay aside your troubles for the day, pack a big basket of lunch. Invite a carload of friends,' and spend the whole day in a picnic. NOT MEET MOLLA NEW TORK. May 11. Samuel Hardy, tennis expert, who returned yesterday from Europe, declared it, would occasion no surprise in Europe if the much-anticipated match between Suzanne Lenplen and Mrs Molla Bjuratedt allory never was held. Mrs. Mallory sails next to compete in the world's championship tournament at Wimbledon In which Mile. LengW-n is entered, but fhis does not mean, he said, that a clash between then was in evitabla. , . Mrs. Mallory must, of course, reach the finals to play with the champion, but it is the European consensus. Mr. Hardy said, that Mile. Lenglen will avoid meeting by playing only in the doubles and mixed doubles. Mile. Lencrlen is remaining out ofrthe singles in ttie world's hand court tournament at Brussels, Mr. Hardy pointed cut. The playing of Mile Lenglen this spring has convinced critical observers, Mr. Hardy said, that the spirit of the dashing star was permanently broken by the defeat she received at Forest Hills, N. T., last year. On January 1. 1922 there were approximately 1,400 passenger cars, TfiO trucks and sixty-two motorcycles registered in the Dominican Republic, says Vice-Consul Makinson, Santo Domingo, in arcport to the department of commerce. All these vehicles are of American manufacture and are equipped with American tires and tubes.

SUZANNE

DEFALK

IS TO SPECIAL TO THE TIMES J INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.. May .11. Is another Ralph DePalma. looming on the racing horizon is the question the speed fans are asking with the official announcement that Peter DePaolo, nephew of the famous Ralph, will drive one of Louts Chevrolet's Frontenacs in the '500mile dash for ghry and gold at the Indianapolis Jtfotor Speedway, Tuesday, May 30th. Peter is a vest pocket edition of his internationally respected racing uncle. He looks, acts, and talks like Uncle Ralph, and information from the Pacific Coast where he made his debut as a pilot a few -races ago, states that he drives like 'his kinsman. If this is .true, racing fans are due for another generation of dol-lar-for-dollar thrills, for Ralph DePalma has been a favorite since the first day he nosed the radiator of a race car out on a speed course. He makes a race whether he's first-or last, and he's always ready for a brush with anyone who 'challenges. It is not unusual if Peter has assimilated these qualities from DePalma, for he has ridden beside him for several years, quiet and attentive to the business of racing, watching 'every piece of strategy exercised 'by bis experienced tutor. But Peter wanted to take over active driving perils before Uncle Ralph thought he was quite ready for so severe a change, so. according to rumors which filter eastward from tho Pacific, there is a strained atmosphere between the two. However, DePaolo has demonstrated that he is an efficient 'driver, and has been making a very creditable showing in the races he has driven. Louis Chevrolet thinks very well of the youngster and has great hopes for DePaolo's victory chances on the local bricks in May. It will be his first start here, but he is entirely familiar with the track and more particularly the driving tactics of the . foe drivers. For he sat beside DePalma and has had plenty of time to observe the style of driving exercised by the various stars. He probably knows, better than Ralph Just how any given driver heads into the turns and how much daring he will exercise to get around another driver. Because it is the mechanician's work to be the driver's eye in the rear and they have to know what is going on behind them every minute of the race, transmitting it to the pilot with rapid fire signals, usually given in code 'by pinches on the accelerator leg of the driver. It's a great schooling to ride beside a man like DePalma. 1 DEFEATS BLOOM SPECIAL TO THE TIMES CHICAGO HEIGHTS. III.. May 11. The local High school baseball team ran into a snag yesterday -when the fast Whiting High school aggregation took them into camp to the tune of 8 to 5. The defeat is a hard one. as the Bloom lads had just won the cham pionshlp of. the Southern section of the Suburban league. Whiting is the only team to deftat the locals, Bloom dropping the game at Whiting by a 5 to 3 count. The visitors presented a wellcoached team and were exceptionally clever on the bases. A home run to deep center with two on by Walsko. the "Whiting catcher, was a feature. Devan In centerfleld 'was good for the visitors as was Duffalo, their shortstop. Koch, the lanky pitcher for Whiting, struck out seven and pitched a clever game. The score by Innings: Whiting High 000 5030 8 9 5 Bloom Twp. High ...0C0 4010 5 5 3 Batteries: Whiting, Koch and Walsko; Bloom. Hinze and Jarvey. Umpires: Midell and Galllvtn. ST. FOR COLONIALS The St. Michaels will come to Hammond Sunday to cross bats with the Colonials at Morris Park. The Colonials booked this game at a reat expenie, because the fans of Hammond asked the Colonial management if they would book stronger teams, as there seemed to be no opposition In the last few games they, played. So fans, here's a treat to 'see one of the best ball games of the season. f The St. Michaels have the services of Ziggle Miller well known to Hammond fans, who has been with Moline. 111., in the Three-I legue and is now back to Gary. They also claim to have an assortment of good talent to go with him. , The Colonial lineup will bethe same, with the steady Bakalar anj Simon doing the twirling, Hess catching, Simon 2b, Ed Bloom s. Meyers 3b, Babin lb. Kennedy, Smith. Barman and Simon playing the outer garden. It took the managers of both teams three hours to decide were this game waa to be played. Nedman winning In the toss; so fans, let's turn out strong and show Gary that we not only have a good fighting ball club, but that we also have the backing of f ood loyal fans and followers.- " ' THE COLONIAL A.
