Indians Open Seasons
Wind-up Series With COL
umbuS.

The Indians today were scheduled
to open their wind.up series Of the
season in a sinE!e game with the
Columbus Senators at Washington
Park. Five contests Will be stogeG
before the 1925 curtain drops, one
this afternoon, two Saturday and
two Sunday.
d The Tribesmen fell back in the
struggle for A. A. second place when
they lost to the Toledo Hens Thurs
day, 5 to /. Hill was hit hard in spots
and his mates failed to damage Jim
Tunney, opposing hurler, to much
extent.
Tunney has been one of the hard
eggs" in the league for the Bush
men this season. He throws what
they call the "exasperating ball It
looks easy to hit. but isn't. The In
dams got nine safeties, but failed
TO cluster the blows.
Thanks to the proves Of Tunney,
the Hens departed from Indianapo.
lis Thursday night with one victory
out Of six game series.
The Hens took delight in what
Carmen Hill mad to offer and
collected eleven solid pokes, Strand
getting a homer and single to lead
the Hen attack. Kelly. Nicholson
and English, were others to get two
safeties.
The Hens nailed Hill for runs in
the second, fourth and eighth in
nings. Schultz drove in two runs,
Strand one, Schliebner one, and one
scored on an error.
Kelly and English played good ball
in the field and Tunney also was
very much on the job sharing Tribe
efforts. A running catch near the
fence in deep center by Wilson was
an outf1eld feature. Sticking and
Matthews were busy in the field for
the Indians.

Butler. Indiana Central, Notre
Dame. Wabash. Hanover, Franklin.
Earlham, De Paw, Rose Poly and
Vincennes will participate in the
first real conflicts of the season.
Eight Of these elevens viii engage in
family scraps, while the remaining
two. Notre Dame and DE Paw, will
endeavor to turn back teams from
outside the Hoosier domain.
Local EIevens Busy
Both of Indianapolis seekers after
honors on the white-chalked fields of
battle will see action. Earlham
comes to Irwin field to meet Butler.
while Indiana Central goes 20 Frank
lin.
1t is yet too early to accurately
gauge the strength Of the various
clubs. However. all of the clubs APP
pear stronger. or at least as good as
in 1924, with the possible exception
Of Notre Dame.
The first test comes Saturday. and
while it may not be a severe one for
most Of the elevens, it will show to
a certain extent just how the wind
blows. The early contests give the
fans an idea Of what is to be ex-
pected in the harder games to come.
Newcomers at n. ID.
Notre Dame suffers this year be-
cause of comparison with last
seasons super eleven. The -Four
Horsemen" are no longer on hand.
Such a quartet does not happen
along every year. The South Bend
school has an army of young hope
fuls at work and if there are any
real football players on the squad
Coach Rockne is the man to find
them.
Little is known Of the strength of
Baylor, the Waco (Texas) team,
which meets the Irish" Saturday.
Pat Page out at Butler has quite
bit of material and is working out
four teams, two Of which are Of
about equal strength. Earlham
should not prove an extremely
formidable foe.
De Paw probably has a tussle on
it's hands against Bradley Tech.
Wabash, which is looking forward
to the Purdue game on Oct 3,
should not find Hanover so difficult,
but that little college usually fights
until the last second.

Hagen One Down

BU United Press
CHICAGO, Sept. 25.- Hagen ran
into some tough luck in the early
play today, and after nine holes was
one down to Cooper in the P C. A.
tourney.
The defending pro golf champion
won the first hole, lost the second,
and won the third. The fourth was
halved. Cooper squared the match
at the fifth with birdie three.
Cooper then took the lead by lay
ing Hagen a full stymie on the sixth
and winning the hole. Hagen
squared the match again on the sew
enth by jumping his ball over an
other full stymie and sinking his
ball. Cooper took the eighth in par
and the ninth was halved.

OLYMPIA FIELDS COUNTRY
CLUB, CHICAGO, Sept. 25.--Two
1S-hole golf courses whipped by
chilly wind were invaded today by
four golf teachers who play the
game so well that they alone sur
vive in the semi-final round Of the
P. G. A. championship.
Walter Hagen, defending his pro-
fessional title, survived his quarter
round after one Of the most desperate
matches ever witnessed in a cham
pionship tournament. He eliminated
Leo Diegel, the New York sharp
shooter, one up on the fortieth hole
and was matched today with Harry
Cooper of Dallas, Texas, who won
his match Thursday from Johnny
Farrell, and J..
herrigan Trimmed
The other match today brought
"Wild Bill" Mehlhorn of Chicago
against Mortre Dutra, Aberdeen,
Wash. Mehlhorn advanced to the
senli-hnals by beating Tom Kerrigan,
New York, s and 6, and Dutra sur
vived by defeating Tommy Armour.
another New Yorker, up on the
thirty sixth green.
The agen-Diegel match was by
long odds the greatest exhibition of
nerve ever seen in these parts. Only
the stout heart and overpowering
courage of the great Hagen could
have overcome the handicap with
which he was faced when he fin
ished the first eighteen holes S down
to Diegel
Hagen Gains
He started out in the afternoon
like a gust of wind and over the
first nine holes had cut Diegel's
lead to three holes. Then Diegel got
busy and stubbornly refused to give
ground. Hagen was still one down
as they drove off for the thirty-sixth
green.
His drive was straight down the
fiarway while Diegel's went into the
rough. Two remarkable iron shots
put Diegel on in three, but Hagen
sank 20-foot putt to win the hole
and square the match.
They halved the first three holes
and then the defending champion ran
out by sinking another long putt Oh
the fourth extra hole.

clinched, the Washington Senators
today went at the St. Louis Browns

fourth place money.
Little enthusiasm greeted the dou-
ble-header victory over Cleveland

contrast from the corresponding
game when Washington won its first
pennant last year, the home town
making nearly enough noise to be
heard IN Boston, where the game was
played

last shove into second place by a
defeat at Philadelphia Thursday.

from Manager Harris down to the
bat boy" President Griffith of the
