Richmond, 6; Indianapolis, 1. An assortment of choice errors, two of timely bingles and the tight flinging of Vordenburg, local slabman, is the story of Richmond's 6-1 triumph over the Indianapolis Specials yesterday afternoon, at Athletic park. In the first two innings, when the Quakers did all of their counting, the Indianapolis team gave symptoms of being a back-lot aggregation. Errors of commission, errors of omission and plain "bone-headed errors" featured the work of the Hoosler Capital crowd in these large stanzas. As to the bingles although there were nine of them accredited to the Quaker batters, proper support to Whitehouse, the visiting heaver, would have held this number to a much smaller count. Whitehouse pitched a rattling good game and should be with better company. He retired Richmond batters via the strike-out route and issued no passes. "Vordy" was effective against the

visiting batsmen at all times; holding them to two clean hits and issuing no free transportation to the first sack. Had it not been for an error of Lennigan, Quaker third-sacker, Vordenburg would have blanked his opponents. In the pinches he was always there with the goods. Errors Help Quakers. The visitors went down in order in the first but not so the Quakers. Wilbur, .first man up gained the initial sack on a slow' fielded ball. Voltz dumped a neat sacrifice and Wilbur continued his journey on the paths. McCann and Merkle failed to produce but Novack gained third on Williford's boot, Wilbur advancing on the play. Big-Popkins, as the villian, took his part well for the first ball served him hit the soil in the vicinity of the center field fence. Two runs. Not satisfied with this start the localB continued the work of annihilation in the second frame. Lennigan opened the program by lacing out a beautiful double. Cushing was generously spared by Doremus, who dropped the sphere on a wide throw of the Specials' short. Vordenburg proceded to fill the bags by rapping out a safe one. Wilbur relieved the crowded condition of the bases by smashing out a clean one past short. Voltz followed the example set by his teammate and another Quaker came galloping in. McCann and -Merkle died on infield taps but Novack brought Wilbur in on a vicious drive to left. Four run. ... This ended the counting of the Quakers. A few times Richmond scores seemed certain but the wrok of Whitehouse proved the stumbling block of the scoring macnine. In the seventh

the locals succeeded in getting run

ners on second and third with no one down but Whitehouse brought the rally to an igominious end by whiffing two Richmond batters and causing the other to lift a pop fly. Indianapolis annexed their lone tally

in the eighth frame. Reed opened up festivities by gaining life on Cushlng's failure to field the ball accurately. Whitehouse advanced him a sack on an Infield tap. Williford fanned but Kraft lined a wicked grounder to the Quaker third sacker. The sphere bounded , off the glove of Lennigan and Reed continued home. One run. The succeeding frame was one-two-three.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 4. Willie Ritchie is giving a trip abroad much consideration. The light weight champion of the world has an offer from the London Sporting club for a twentyround bout there with Freddie Welsh, but the terms are not just to his liking. He has written asking for an increase, and if the terms he set forth in the letter are granted he will take his two brothers and sisters for a long trip across the Atlantic. . But before the Londoners get-the, champion they must post the guarantee he demands with some reputable bank there. Also Welsh must post his forfeit with' eome one of prorninence

ROBINSON BATTERS POUND LAVEflSTEIN

Connecling with the offering of Lavenstein, the Natco pitcher, on twenty separate and distinct occasions, the Robinson nine trimmed the Toolm&kers 19-14, Saturday. This ties the Westenders with the Southside bunch for fourth place honor in the Commercial league. With the exception of one, the Robinson crew counted every Inning. Five tallies were gathered in the first; four scores were annexed in the second; one run was the best that could be done in the next; seven came across the pan in the fifth, totaling nineteen counts. Stover was high

We read of strikers fighting, And of soldiers raising cain, But the head we see most often is - The Pirates win again. WONDER!

What a chance for Larry McLean when professional baseball is established in Germany, as the cables, say it soon will be. No dry-as-dust navy regulations for the Teutonic leagues. Only 140 points separate the Pirates and the Phillies in the National league. The race is so exciting that one could almost get enthusiastic over it.
