Indianapolis Tuesday and Wednesday. JURY HANGS IN WELLMAN I) \MAGE SUIT CASE

The damage suit against Gilbert Wellman, Danville fruit dealer, with relatives at Stilesville, who was involved in an accident in Georgia Iasi winter in which a school girl was killed, resulted in a disagreement bj the jury. After the accident, both the father and the mother of the girl filed damage suits, the father for $10,000 and the mother for $15,000. At the previous trial brought by the father, Wellman was ordered to pay funeral costs, but after waiting twenty-eight days the father asked for a new trial. The date for the second trial has not yet been set. In the suit brought by the mother, the jury, after deliberating twentysix hours, was undecided with four jurors in favor of dropping the case and eight in favor of a small fine. The case will be tried in Calhoun, Ga. sometime in November. At the last meeting of the Calhoun grand jury the criminal charge against Mr. Wellman was dropped.

NEW YORK, Sept. 8.—(UP)— I When better ways to lose ball ! games are figured out. the Cincinnati Reds will be the boys who’ll do it. It looks like they refuse to put ; on a spurt and clinch the National j League flag so everybody can settle back and get ready for the world series. At the rate the Reds are traveling they’ll come down to the world series just another of those tired, jittery National League champions with not much left to hurl at the mighty I Yankees. Two rookies, fresh from the min- ! ors, played the leading roles in help- ! ing the Reds beat themselves yesterday. Bob Elliott and Maurice Van Robays, a pair of outfielders from the International League, made seven hits between them and drove in four runs as the Reds bowed, 8-7, in 11 innings to the Pittsburgh Pirates. Elliott’s double and Van Robay’s double in the ninth gave the Pirates the run that tied the score, 6-6. Van Robays singled home the tying run again in the 11th after the Reds had scored in their half, and run again in the 11th after the Reds had scored in their half, and then Elliott scored the winning tally when outfielder Gamble fumbled the ball. The Reds had a 5-0 lead going into the last of the fifth, but tossed it away. They collected 16 hits off Blanton, Klinger, Swift and Sewell but had 13 men stranded. It was the fourth straight extra-inning game for the Rhinelanders, who can't keep their minds off the pennant and on the ball game they are playing that day. The Cardinals trimmed the Reds’ lead to 4' a games when they beat the Cubs, 4-2, in 10 innings. Feature of the game was Gabby Hartnett’s cracking the major league catching record by appearing behind the bat in his 1,727th game. Ray Schalk, who held the previous mark, presented him with a scroll signed by 2.500 fans. Bill Lee’s three base error on Slaughter’s tap to the box started the Cards’ winning rally in the 10th. Rapping Carl Hubbell for four hits in the ninth, the Bees came from behind to beat the Giants, 4-3. Hank Danning dropped a throw with the bases loaded, which permitted the winning run to come in. The Yankees increased their lead to 16'_. games by beating the Red Sox. 5-2. Monte Pearson and Oral Hildebrand combined to hold the Red Sox to three hits. Joe DiMaggio hit homer No. 27 and a single in three official times at bat to increase his batting average to .408. The White Sox moved up within two games of the Red Sox by taking a twin bill from the Browns, 8-4 and 11-4. Ted Lyons won his 12th ganre in the opener and Lefty Lee his 13th in the nightcap. Hal Trosky banged out four Kits including his 24th homer, to lead Cleveland to victory over the Tigers, 9-8. Hank Greenberg hit two homers, Nos. 26 and 27. Ken Chase pitched Washington to a 10-1 victory over the Athletics. The Senators slugged out 16 hits with Taft Wright getting four. Yesterday’s Hero—Gabby Hartnett, Cubs’ pilot who caught his 1,727th game to set a new major league record. CLASSIFIED ADS
