PETTY TURNS TRICK

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, July 21.--Jack
Hendricks and his Indianapolis Indians
were perked up a bit today and ready to
come back for another grand slam at the
Milwa ukee Brewers following yesterdays
5 TO victory
Jess Petty, after going down before
the Brewers Monday, came back at them
yesterday and threw on the skid chains
for the slipping Indians. The Tribe gave
Jess a two-run lead In the second frame,
after Minneapolis had counted one in the
first, and after that he stayed in com
mand.
Petty's win served to put q bit of the
old pepper back into the Tribesmen and
they were anxious to jump behind Lee
Bartlett or Pug Cavet aud tear off the
turn to throw, but Hendricks considered
using Cavet, provided the veteran felt
like taking the hill Schaak or North

The Brewers started scoring in the

and Gamer came along shortly after
with a triple

Indians hit their true stride, and came
up for the runs that decided the issue.

while Jess was being thrown out. After
this the Tribe was cut down but tho
damage had been done, and the Brewers
were unable to come back strong from
then on.
The other Indian runs came in the
sixth inning. when Schneider singled,

Captain Lindsay of Red Cross
to ShOU Latest Methods
July %.

The Indianapolis Athletic Club swim
ming committee has completed arrange
ments for bringing Capt. w. A. Lindsay
of the lake division of the American Red
Cross to Indianapolis, to give an exhibit
ton of life saving and resuscitation meth
DDS, and water safety, as an added at
traction in conjunction with the national
championship swimming meet at the
Broad Ripple pool July %. Captain Lind
say viii be able to condense into 81
twenty minute demonstration the essen
tial points of life-saving and resuscita-
ton.
The Red Cross is constantly on the
alert for better methods, and swimmers
viii be Interested to learn that the meth
DDS of breaking the holds of the drown
ing person on the life-saver have been
completely revised within the last month.
Indianapolis will be very fortunate in
having this opportunity of getting up to-
the minute Information on the best life
saving practices.
Probably the most interesting phase
of water safety, unquestionably the most
vital and the least commonly known, is
that of resuscitati ton. The remarkable
possibilities along this line are indicated
by the case of the girl who was thought
drowned in Gary, Ind, where four hours
elapsed before her body was recovered,
but who was brought back TO life after
hours of ceaseless effort by the ilfe-
savers Another case of man who was
resuscitated after having been under
water more than an hour adds proof 10
the fact that death by drowning is due
to the ignorance Of proper resuscitation
methods, In a large percentage of cases.
Captain Lindsay will show the methods
by which these miracles we're accom-
plished His demonstra ton will be in
cluded as part of the regular program
of the swimming meet on the afternoon
Of July -.
Director Jordan received positive as
surance today that Captain Lindsay viii
