CHEERS
UP AS BRIGHT
SUN COMES OUT
Weather Clears for Weekend
Exhibition Games With
Tulsa Leaguers.
ALL PITCHERS TO WORK

TULSA, Okla, April 1.-The Tulsa ball
park was a muddy morass yesterday
following several days of incessant rain
and the indianapolis American Associa-
ton team, which arrived Thursday for
a series with the local Western Leaguers,
was forced to sit idly by Friday and
wait for the sun which finally popped
out with a welcome glow to dry out the
field and place it in condition for the
games of today and Sunday. Manager
Hendricks probably will send all of his
pitching staff, eight in number, into the
games here at Tulsa and each pitcher
will have a siege in the box. Ihey
have been out of a uniform three days
now and the Tribe boss desires to give
each Of them q short whirl.
Manager Hendricks assembled the In
dams at the Tulsa ball park Friday art
ernoon for several hours of practice along
the sidelines. The games here are the
last Of the preliminary workouts for the
Indians, who are making their way to
the home lot at indianapolis to open a
series OF exhibition games with big
league CLUBS, and to prepare for the I'M,
tial game Of the American Association
pennant race, which begins April II, the
st. Paul Club Offering the first oppoSi-
ton at Washington Park
The Indians Will arrive in Indianapolis
Monday afternoon and the following day
Manager Pat Moran, Of the Cincinnati
Reds, viii send his National Leaguers
against the Tribe, beginning a two-day
| series. The Indians should be IN fair
shape for the exhibition series on the
home lot despite the ldleness here.
Marlin, Texas, though an unwelcome
wind was at hand most Of the time,
dished out pretty fair weather as whole
! and the team left Texas much benefited
! by the stay In the Lone Star state.
| The pitching selections for the Indian $
| in todays contest with the local team
| were expected to bring Carman Hill and
| Jess Petty to the mound. Both have
! pitched in previous exhibition games and
| should hold the Tulsa club In check
| If Hin and Petty succeed In showing
| off for Manager Hendricks in salts
! factory manner either Clancy or Seib
the rookie pitchers may get Into th5
| game Clancy as yet has not worked
for the Indians since coming to the clun
l from the Giants, but Seib occupied the
box for three innings against Galveston
and later hattled the New York Giants
for the same number Of rounds,
acqultting himself credisably in both ap-
npa rnQceS.

shame that more people were not present
at the Temple last night to witness this
rare old morality play. If the Little
Theater is going to continue to do worth
while things, indianapolis must support
whole heartedly all performances.
The Little Theater cannot afford to
play to a vacant seat and indianapolis
cannot afford to let a vacant seat well
come the society at any performance I
am not going to rave" at this time over
the poor visible support given the Little
Theater last night, but I promise you at
a future time 1 viii attempt to discuss
that phase Of the problem.
As the story of "Everyman" was IN
folded last night. I had the feeling that
the society was doing it's best work.
Every player seemed TO understand his
Job. All lines were reasonably well read.
The players were Helen Bedell, Marjorie
Chiles, Herman L. Earnest, Evelyn Fife.
Larry Fletcher, Ralph F. Thompson. Nor
man Green, Jack Harding, Jane JillsOn,
George SOmnes, Mary Jane Walters,
Stuart Walker, Arleigh Waltz, Z. II.
Weer, Kathleen Wilson, Romnet Will
F5n, Marjorie Olsen and Marjorie Brown
Sherwood.
The honors Of the evening went to Mr..
Somnes, who played the role of Everyman,
VINO was deserted Dy feliOWsulp,
Strength, Discretion, Goods. Kindred.
Cousin, Beauty, Five Whites and Knowl-
edge when called to the grave by Death.
Only Good Deeds went to the grave with
Everyman.
Mr.. Somnes read the lines with distinct
dictiOn and when opportunity permitted
it put real emotional shading in the
scenes. His work was finished and
showed careful study Of this difficult
role. All members Of the cast were more
than satisfactory and the cast as a whole
was better balanced than on previous
occasions.
The manner Of presenting the play was
as old fashioned as the play itself Many
Of the players came from the audience
The stage settings were simple, but high
~ effective.
All In all, last night was a worthy eve
ming In the history Of the Little Theater.
The play is essentially moral and was
presented in that attitude.
The final performance is scheduled for
this afternoon.
The Oriol Trio played a musical prel-
ude TO the play and furnished the in
cidental music during the action Of the
morality play.
