Second-FinaIe With
Hens Today.

Indians and Hens were to close
their series at Washington Park to-
day with a single struggle and on
Friday the Columbus Senators will

about one-half point of the second

team are sure to see some lively
baseball at Washington Park the re-
mainder of the week and Sunday.

thought Bill Burwell will be assigned
the job of twIrling against the Sena-
tors Friday.
Henry and SchemanslSe turned in
well pitched games Wednesday, the
former allowing only five hits and
the latter three. The second contest
was called after six and one-half in
nings by agreement. It also was too
dark for further play, but the man
ayers agreed before the fracas that
seven innings would be sufficient.
Two Hits for Henry
Henry continued his heavy stick
work to help himself put over
win" getting a triple and single. He
was matched up with Claude
Jonnard, one Of the best hurlers in
the league, and he won much APP
plause by his fine work. Jonnard
has been sold to the St. Louis
Browns, but he couldn't dazzle the
Indians Wednesday, and he was
cracked for fourteen hits.
Improved weather helped at
tendance Wednesday and about 900
fans were present when the closing
fray got under way. The Indians
played sparkling ball in the field. in
both battles and Manager Bush was
highly pleased with the performance
OF his athletes.
BY winning the second game
Wednesday the Tribesmen extended
their winning streak to six straight.

reason to feel proud of the. rec

year against champs Of other. cities
than ever before in the history Of

The Prest-O-Ltes lost out at
Detroit in the class IA series,
but they had the satisfaction of
defeating the eventual winner
of the title, First National Bank

to eliminate club.
The Presto club also defeated the
Goodyear Tires of Akron, Ohio.
Cleveland, the team that went to
the finals, defeated the local

and won in the second contest.
Manager Plummer had a fine,
Woodworking ball club, one of the
best Indianapolis has produced in
recent years. The team was easily
the class of this city.
The Indianapolis Light and Heat
team also made a good showing in
the class A tournament at Cleve-

town, Pa, in the first contest, but
not a bit discouraged, came back to
defeat Lorain, Ohio and Water
bury, Conn. The club was elimi-
mated finally on Wednesday by
Cincinnati.
Local fans need not feel
ashamed of the class of ball put
