WOCONTESTS
LEFT ON ROAD
FORTRIBESMEN
Indians Still Have Chance to
Grab Series From Leading
Saints.
HALL PROVES PUZZLE

ST. PAUL, Mimi, May 26.-After two
more games on the road, including to-
days, the Indians will pack mp and hit
the home trail, arriving in indianapolis
late Friday.
Then on Saturday the home fans will
glimpse their team in battle with the
Louisville Colonels and, according to
talk among members of the Tribe, 1t s
going to be a red hot series.
Following the shutout defeat handed
them by Charlie Hall and the saintless
crew yesterday the Hoosiers were hoping
to grab the series lead again this after
noon. Manager Hendricks had Flaherty
and Turner ready and there was strong
possibility that he would give Turner. the
former Chicago Cub, his first trial as an
Indian.
The Indians won the first contest Of the
series Monday, lost the second Tuesday,
and still have a chance TO grab the re-
mainder, although an even break out OF
the games today and tomorrow will not
go bad.
The Indians were unfortunate yesterday
in running into Charlie Hall when he was
in his best form and as a result the
Saints copied. to 0.
Hall pitched one Of the best gar@es OF
his association career and gave up only
three hits. Zwilling getting two and
Smith one.
Jess Petty returned to the mound for
the Hoosiers after an attack of boils and
he pitched effectively until the late in
nings. when Kelley's outfit broke
through.
Due to the fact that he had been out
Of the game a long time. Petty weak
ened toward the finish after pitching
on almost even terms with Hall.
AS the game wound up without the
Hoosiers scoring the weakening of Petty
can not be held entirely accountable-for
the defeat, inasmuch as his mates failed
to hit To any extent.
The Saints got one run In the fourth
and three in the eighth. The marker
was scored IN the fourth on Bergman
mer's single and Boone's double, but the
short rally failed TO shake Petty aud
he came right back and went along
steadily until he weakened in the eighth.
The Indians tried hard all the way,
but they simply were out Of luck for the
day in the face of Halls brilliant pitch
ing.

TWO TWIN BILLS
WITH COLONIES

Despite the fact that the indianapolis
baseball club Is down In the A. 7. race.
the fact remains that Owner Smith and
Manager Hendricks are striving 10 bolster
up the outfit. and, therefore, loyal fans
have not given MP hopes OF seeing their
favorftes eventually getting up in the
running.
Consequently when the Indians return
home Saturday for a series opener with
the Colonies there will he plenty or fans
present 10 offer encouragement.
According to plans announced by Vice
President Smith today one game will be
played Saturday, two Sunday and two
Monday.
Last year the Indians did not perform
on race dAy, but this year the team can
hardly AFFORD 10 remain idle due 10 the
fact that postponements have been piling
up rapidly.
Therefore. it looks like three days Of
high-c class thrilling baseball for Hoosier
fans Saturday, Sunday and Monday.
Pitcher Paul Jones. bought from the
Boston Braves. will join the Tribe here
Saturday. and probably will perform In
one Of the Louisville games.
Others deals are on the fire and there
is a strong possibility OF Owner, Smith
closing propositions with a big league
club shortly for an outnelder and an
other pitcher.

Roscoe Sarlss has been out on the track
nearly every day and his "Greenback" is
daily showing more speed.
One Of the most noticeable features OF
the "Greenbacks" Is their novel egg
shaped radiator protector which prevents
damage to the radiator such as lost
Arthur Chevrolet the race at Cincinnati

LIPTON'S YACHT
TAKES TO WATER
Englishmen Confident a
Shamrock " Is Launched.

NEW YORK, May 2s.-The Shamrock
~, Sir Thomas Lipton's challenger for
the Americas cup, was to be launched at
food tide late today at Robert Jacobs
Shipyard, City Island
Since the arrival in this country of
Charles 81. Nicholson, her designer, q
1 week ago, the Upton sloop has been get
ting final touches preparatory to her
launching today and Nicholson is highly
satisfied with the looks Of the strangely
constructed boat.
The Shamrock will be fitted with
wooden mast. Designer Nicholson says
the challenger's wooden mast is much
stronger type than the one which broke
as the Resolute crossed the finish line
ahead Of the Vanitie at New Haven.
In case the Shamrock should suffer
similar accident, however, extra masts
have been provided The twenty-three-
meter Shamrock, which is tosbe the trial
horse for Shamrock ", is making her
way to this country by easy stages. She
first sailed from Ireland to the Azesess
and then to Bermuda.
She is expected to arrive here about
June and will be Immediately fitted up
. for the tuning up trials against the chal-
lenger.
The two shamrocks will do their tun-
ing up over the Sandy Hook course.
where the classic international race will
be sailed in July
Sir Thomas Upton will arrive in this
country about the middle of June. He
is coming with a feeling of confidence
that his latest challenger will be sue
cessful, and those who have seen the
Shamrock " are willing to concede that
she is a sloop with all the earmarks Of
a true ocean greyhound, and one that
may be expected to give either the Reso-
lutte or Vanitie the greatest kind Of rae
ing.
