ST. PETERSBURG, Ella, March 25.-
The Indians and Cubans today tangled
In the second contest Of the two game Sc
ries at Doc Mooreneld's baseball lot.
With the first game to their side of the
ledger, the Indians felt that they would
carry away the bacon in this afternoons
game. Adams was slated to pitch, with
Henline again behind the bat.
The Cuban boys were on their toes to-
day, hopeful of coping the contest, but
Big Chief Jack doubted the ability of
the Islanders to whip his squad.
The preliminary sale of seats was
good, indicating the interest taken in
baseball in st. Petersburg. The Hoosiers
ern training camp.
YOUNG RECEIVER
HAS PUNCH.
Another catcher, Joe Casey, a youth
full Redleg, is expected to accept an offer
made by the Tribe officials. Manager
Hendricks knows the scrappy qualities
OF the youthful Irishman. the winning
ways he has, the records he has made as
an arpiring follower of the ledthern
sphere and as a wielder of the willow
Hendricks is confident tnat the addi-
ton of Casey to the Tribes lineup will
bolster pennant hopes materially.
Casey gained his minor league expe-
rience on the coast and Is said to be
ripe for Glass AA company. He is not
the same Casey who played with the IN
dams several years ago.
The coming of Casey-f he does
eoIne-will, however, not mean the re-
lease Of either GOsset or HenHne, as
Manager Hendricks plans on carrying
trio OF backstops, largely because Of the
injury jinx" that camps on Gossett's
trail Dick is such mixer in the har-
ness and travelling the bag route that
IL is almost imperative that the Tribe
maintain three catchers, especially II
they proceed to make good on that pen
nant-snatching promise to the fans back
home
REHG's KNEE
STILL SORE.
Walter Rehg is still laid up with
twisted knee. He and Dick Gosset now
answer sick call at the morning in
spection of the Tribe.
It was hard hitting that won for the
Indians In the first game yesterday with
the Cuban Stars and thereby they put over
an S-to-T victory-v1ctOry that eheered
the training Tribesmen.
While the Cubans had a number of
leaguers in their lineup eaguers that
have just finished a successful series
with the Washington Americans, yet they
were outDlayed by the HOOsiers- 1t is
true that the first inning looked danger
From a strictly critical viewpoint, the
Hoosier limelighters were Murray, who
did not allow a run during his four IN
nings on the mound. Then Wolf played
an all-round good game. And, by the
way. Schrieber was a wicked one with
the stick, a home run, a double and
single Murray "hissef' got two hits, By
jiggers, boys.
WOLF LOOKS
LIKE REGULAR.
Hendricks waxed enthusiastic over
the work of Wolf at the second sack. 1t
begins to look as if the former NOtre
Dame star had developed earmarks of a
regular berth occupant with the Tribe,
Wolf is also hitting consistently.
Outfielder SINNERS is continuing TO
display fine form, another yOungster who
evidently will be one of the American
association sensations of the season.
