.JOY AND GLOOM
 HAND IN HAND
Phoenix High Provides Gloom; Indians Produce the Joy; Score Was Ten to One; Race Narrows for Republican Cup

| Two more Valley league games were played off yesterday afternoon and two enterprising high schools were again defeated by their fast flying opponents. The game between the Tempe High and the Normal re- suited in a score that was very sat- isfactory-to the Normal They say the score was 9 to ?, but maybe it was worse than that. The Normal battery was Spikes and Dean. and Dimes and Pine did the honors for the High school. So the Normals still have a tight hold on their thousand per cent and the Tempe High has tumbled from 500 to 333 points.
 The story of the other game is sad. indeed, as seen by the Phoenix High. but it must be told The In dians had the pleasure of bringing in ten runs to the single one which the Phoenix High school made on error. So the Indians are yet in possession of their thousand per centage, while no reduction in the P. II. $. standing is to be seen. Phoenix still ties Mesa for the double zero
 In spite of the unhappy score the game was one of considerable in terest In the second inning O'Ncil stole second. and then travelled on to third. while the second baseman was gathering up the ball which he had fumbled. As soon as said sec ond baseman had posed himself properly he passed the ball on to third. but here again the impulsive sphere was not properly handled and O'Neil succeeded in beating the ball to the home plate. The Phoenix fans were Overjoyed and became i'm mediately more hilarious than they were at any subsequent point in the game. With two outs and the bases full it seemed possible that Phoenix would score again in the fifth; but two strikes were called on the bat ter and Harrison made q desperate attempt to steal home-and was hooked by the third baseman.
 The High school secured only two hits. but the Indians batted hard straight through the game. making at least one hit in every inning eX- cept the eighth. The fast and ac- curate fielding uf the Indians made a safe hit hard to get.
 The following is the story of the celebration as set down by the Of- ficial scorer:

GOOD SEASON AHEAD.
Racing Popular But Utility Of "Sin. ale Trackers" Now
 Recognized.

With the remarkable growth in the ranks of motorcyclists. the increased public interest in the single tracker and the careful supervision and man. agoment of motorcycle racing, indica - tions are that 1912 win be the great est and best season in the history of .motorcycling.
 The increased ease with which the motorcycle flashes from city to city and from coast to coast, added to the records being made on saucer tracks have combined to bring the motor cycle more largely to the attention of the general public.
 While the single tracker" has long been a familiar figure in the com mon walks" of life, its great useful ness is just becoming appreciated. And while racing is of a sensational nature it is of practical value in that it emphasizes the very qualities that have made the motorcycle a factor in the world of business and pleasure.
 On the highway, or in the street where it is :lart of the modern busi- ness demand for speed. the motor cycle eXcites no thrill-eXcept. per haps in the rider. But on the race tracks. there are thrills for the mul- titude
 An outErowth of the demand for thrills" is the saucer track move

AUTOS NJ WORK OF FEW YEARS
Took Centuries to Develop Buzzers; From Time of Pharoah Humans Have Worked to Get From Here to There Fast

The automobile has required cen turies to build, according to George NJ. Dickson, general manager of the company that builds National 40 cars. MT. Dickson bases. this statement upon review of the evolution of the |science of locomotion and declares that everything in this world is prOgres- sive; has a link that connects it with the past and one with the future, and that therefore no one invention stands completely alone.
 Mir Dickson calls attention to the fact that from B C. HOO there is record that shows the desire of men to overcome time and distance and, to aid in this, they used chariots in times of war, in races and for private use until long after the Dark Ages.
 The chariots of the Egyptians are spoken of in Genesis when Pharoah. the prime minister. said: Take your chariots out of the land of Egypt"
 The bullock cart was used in 300 A. D. It was a peculiar vehicle, espe- cially as it did not contain one par ticle of metal. This cart was a step farther than the Indian method of using two branches of a tree on which platform was tied. and the branches dragged on the ground behind a horse.
 Among the Romans about 1000 A. D. the horse litter was used by patriarchs and their equipages numbered many vari-colored affairs of state and for private driving as well. Slaves and horses were used to carry these filters that did not have wheels.

4 PdWnee Motorcycist

Minnie Skey Eagle. a full blood Pawnee Indian squaw. has the reputa- ton of being one of the first women of her race to ride the motorcycle. Although her forefathers and their squaWs were champions on the pony. the motorcycle has for her the great est fascination.
 It's q long step from ponies to the motorcycle. but Minnie Skey Eagle is one of the prOgressives among her people, and in many parts of the country where she has travelled. she has been seen riding the motorcycles
 When she rides she is the most picturesque person on the highway Dressed in the quaint, rich colors of d typical Indian squaw and with all the enthusiasm of her race she takes her rides on the two-wheeler.
 Does this be like a horse?" That was the first question she asked when she saw the motorcycle among the Indian wigwams She had seen George H. Chase, a friend of hers. riding his machine and she wanted to try it. The ease with which it was operated appealed to her and after q few lessons she could easily manage it. Then just a twist of the wrist the motorcycle started and Minnie Skey Eagle was on her way.
 After that first ride Chase says he never knew whether he owned the machine or whether it belonged to Minnie She liked To ride so well that most of her odd hours were spent taking long rides on the motorcycles
 While Minnie Skey Eagles home is among her own people on the -reser- vatiOn of the government at Geron- imo, Oklahoma. she spends part of her time travelling to different parts of the country and at Bliss Olla. Ranch 10l, in Oklahoma. There she is the pride of all the PaWnees on the reser-

INDIANAPOLIS
 |S ON METTLE
Hundred Thousand Visitors Expected at Great Speed way Classic in M ay; Rooms Already Being Re served

INDINAPOLIS, March 16.-Thirty- four square miles of floor space ir one hotel is what visitors to the sec ond annual 500-mile international sweepstakes race will find when they come to the Indianapolis Motor Speed way next Memorial day. May 30 This entire city is being formed into a monster hoStelry to care for the 100O00 visitors expected here to wit ness the worlds greatest motor con- test, and thousands of the best pri- vate homes of the Hoosier capital are being merged into one great lodG- ing house for the motorists who will come from other parts of the coun- try
 The Speedway has organized q de- partment known as the room bureau which is listing the rooms and ar ranging them in the same manner as hotel kcps records of it's ac- commodations and guests. Thou sands of rooms have already been obtained for the nights of May 29 and May %. and reservations are be- ing made through the Speedway by spectators who will come from every state
 The Indianapolis hotel keepers in recent meeting arranged to cooperate with the Speedway management and to provide every person with ac- commodations. whether in their ho- tels or in private homes. Every ho- tel office will be a branch of the Speedway bureau and will have rooms assigned to il from the main office at Speedway headquarters. II is estimated that the full 10000 wis itors can be accommodated easily
 The city government of Indianapolis will also work to give aid to the wis iting throngs. Police will be assigned as guides to show the visitors to their apartments and scores of mes senGers will be engaged in addition to help. in housing the city's guests. A system has been arranged at the Speedway so that every visitor who makes request for reservation in ad- vance will be advised before he starts for Indianapolis, just where he will be located.
 Filing systems have proved efficient in this part of the task and dupli- catcd cards are furnished to the vis- itors and the owners of the homes in which they will be accommodated. Full directions for reaching their assigned rooms are furnished at the same time IL is believed that this will relieve the congestion which was attendent Cpon handling the vast crowd last year.
 In 1911 hundreds arrived at the last minute and failed to get the best accomodations so the task of doing away with this unpleasant feature has been started three months before the date of the race Those who are intending to witness the race should communicate with some of the Indianapolis hotels or with the Speedway room bureau as soon as possible so that they have the best the city offers
 The advance seat sale for the race indicates that the crowd this year will surpass that of last year. The seating capacity at the Speedway is more than 50.000, and about 10.- 000 seats have been reserved already. i There are fourteen entries in for l inc race. with tentative entries of | fiftcecn more. The field is to be limited to thirty starters

Bender Is Most Dependable Man
 of Mack's Team

Connie Mack was recently asked to name the twenty greatest ball play CTS. Connie Mack refused. but said that if his life or fortune depended on any game of baseball he would bank on Chief Bender, his wonderful redskin finger.
 Do you know said Connie. Ben der has never vet failed me in a crisis? Whenever there is q game that the fortunes of our club hinge on I've sent in the chief, and he has delivered every time Back in 1905 he won the deciding game from the Chicago white sox that practically gave us the pen nant. He later won our only game in the 1905 worlds series.
 Tn 1905 the chief almost pitched us in the pennant. There was a crucial series with Detroit late in September. Plank beat the tigers in the first game and they took fall out of Krause in the second. We were scheduled to face Donovan Tn the third game and our pennant chances were in the balance. l put it up to Bender, and before the biggest CT owd that ever saw a game in Philadelphia he held the tigers to two hits and shut them out by a score of ? to 0. We lost the pennant that year, but it was through no fault of the chief. You know how easily he trim med the cubs in the first game of last years world series. He also showed he could pitch some. against the giants in the fali. The chief is the most de- pendable man in a crisis I have ever encountered in my long connection with baseball"

.bOTTENUS BIT BY BAT BUG
Records Show a Total of Eighteen Bases During a Game in Buffalo; Four Home Runs; Happened in 1895

So far as any available records show. the greatest batting feat ever accomplished in a league baseball game is that of William Bottenus. who set record of eighteen total | bases in q contest between the Buff Eastern league Four home runs and double were his contribution to that games clubbing. and his Total of sacks is one better tha9 that of any other player known to fame.
 The major league record is held jointly by Bob Lowe. Detroit scout. and the late Ed Delehanty. each of whom set a mark of four homers of sixteen cushions.
 Bottenus was playing left field for the Buffalo club. when he had his big day and led off in the batting order. On the opening day of the season, May F, 1895, he hit the firss ball pitched over d house in left field for d home run and followed this up with three more homers and q two- base hit. making the total of eighteen sacks for the game.
 Not content with this feat he thumpcd out five more home runs before the week was over, making a total of nine in seven days. He led the Eastern league in home runs that season. outbatting even the celebrated Home-Run Buck Freeman. who went tO the big league the next year.
 With all his extra base clubbing. this slugger did not have a fancy average, batting but .2SS in 133 games. He vas left hand batsman. who used to switch to right-hand position when a southpaw opposed his club, faring just about as well against the portsiders as anybody else.
 Teammates of Bottenus in that game were sam Wise. Jack sharon and Bill Clymer. Eight home runs were made in that memorable session.
