Browns in the High School league last night when they took a regular runfest from the Grimes, leaving the latter team sole possessor of the cellar. Errors committed by the Grimes combination were the cause of defeat. Grimes committed two offenses when they worked to the best advantage for the opponents. Howard, the second sacker, mixed thingB on four occasions The Grime? started out as if they were going to bury their opponents under a lop-sided score, making four in the first inning on two hits and two bases on balls. They added two more in the second, but after that they could not get far off the delivery of Chappel until the last of the fifth, when the Williams twirler momentarily lost control of the sphere and walked five men in succession. He escaped with the game on the credit side when Hanning made a long throw from left fleldd, catching Plummer at the plate. The Williams seemingly were content to make a grandstand finish, and they certainly accomplished their aim. They made two in the second, one in the third, and then batted around in the fourth. Before the smoke had cleared away they had accumulated six tallies. Just to play it safe, they added three more in the fifth and knocked of work for the day. Score and summary: .Williams. ' A.B. R.

BUTLER FACES FAST QUAKERS IN FIRST GAME Brubaker's Men in Mid-Season Form, Expect to Start Year With Victory on Home Field. Coach Brubaker is putting the finishing touches on his Quaker team in preparation for the first I. C. A. L. game with Butler on Raid Field Saturday. The coach asserts that the Christians will have to display midseason for mm order to snatch the game from Earlham. Weak spots shown in the Vigran game have been eliminated and good men have been found to take the place of the players taken from the squad by eligibility rules. In many cases the substitutes, however, made better showings than the regulars. Fisher who went in behind the bat does not let many get hy him and has developed a sure peg to the second sack. James Parker who is filling Fisher's shoes in the garden is doing it in a fashion that would make big leaguers sit up and take notice. In addition to natural ability he knows the game. Butler is not ranked as one of the strong teams of the I. C. A. L. this season although a number of last year's veterans are on the squad. EarJham's lineup will probably be: Calvert, lb; Hobbs, 3b; Meranda, 2b; Logan, ss; Bowen, If; Parker, cf; Mendenhall, Templin, If; Fisher, c; Wallace and Little, p. ROOF GETS PROMISE TO FACE RICHMOND Carl Roop was in the city for a short time last night coming over from Dayton. Roop's chances of making a regular place on the Saginaw team are at the stage right now where he expects to.be told "yes" or "no" at any time. Fifteen mound aspirants were lined up on the field Monday by Ducky Holmes and eight drew their pink slips but Roop was not included. The team will carry five regular twirlers this season, four of whom have already been selected. Carl has it doped out that his hardest man to beat out for the job as fifth man on the corps is a right hander with plenty of speed and many shoots. Another man is also in the way, Morris of Eaton, Indiana, a southpaw with seven years minor league experience, but Roop does not consider him a strong candidate. The team will practice for the remainder of the week and will not play until Saturday when . it stacks up against the Dayton Cadets. On Sunday the crew will be in Richmond for a game with the local club. Roop with pitch this game sure he stated last night. R. Y. M. FIVE ADDS 5 GAMES TO LEAD CITY LEAGUE. Won. Lost. Pet. R. Y.

Stock in the Stutz racing team, entered for the next Indianapolis 500-mile sweepstakes, has jumped way above par as the result of a speed trial staged on the Hoosier track with one of the new Stutz 300-inch fliers. Driving under wraps, Wilcox negotiated a full lap of the course in 1;36 2-5, or better than 93 miles an hour. On the straightaways he hit in the neighborhood of 105. Shortly after, Anderson took the wheel and reled off fifty miles in 24:27, or 87.1 miles an hour. This, for a car that was built only recently, and has not been fully run in as yet, Is held to be remarkable. If it can do as 'well in the race, it is thought sure of breaking the 500-mile record, at present held by Rene Thomas in a Delage. VIGRANS GET GAME The Vigrans have scheduled a game for May 9 with the Summerville, Ohio, team, the game to take place in that city. The Summerville management is sending out strong press notices for the game, advertising that either Earl Vordenburg of the Rushville I. S. L. team, or Earl Tingling, former lied

heaver, will be on the mound.
