The national pastime calls,
There is one day, in the spring
time, each year, that the baseball
fan calls his very own" and he
won't be talked out of it. It Is the
opening day for the home team. and
today was ut" for Ownie Bush's In
dians.
The homegrown manager gal
loped through the West since April
l3, more than holding his own in
enemy country. and thousands of
fans turned out this afternoon at
Washington Park to extend the
glad hand to the energetic pilot and
his Hoosier diamond performers.
The contest was scheduled to get
under way at p. m. with Spencer
AbbQtt's Kansas City Blues supply
ing the opposition. The booster
parade in downtown streets started
at lis p. m, and arrived at the
ball grounds at 1:45.
Ceremonies at Park
There were some stunts" pre-
ceding the encounter, including
floral gifts TO the opposing man
ayers, and fiag-raising by a squad of
Marines, Mayor DuYan was sIatei
to fling the first bail. and then the
.umpires were to take charge and
command the battle to start.
Carmen Hill. Highlander. or
Frank Henry, southpaw, was TO pitch
for the Indians this afternoon.
Bill Burwall hurled the opener a
Kansas City. sApril 13, and won.
but it did not happen to be Bill
turn to work today, and Bush de-
sires to keep his mainstay hurlers
performing in order.
Hill defeated the Millers i'm Mime
apolis last Saturday and also was in
a few innings against st. Paul Mon
day. Henry downed the Millers last
Thursday. Burwell hurled a full
game against the Saints Sunday. and
won. Therefore. both Hill and Henry
were due" for mound assignment
before Burwell. and that was the
only reason Bush did not figure on
using Bill this afternoon.
The Kansas City Blues reached
the city at 1890 a m. Manager Alb
hott said he would use Meme, u right
handler, to face the Indians on the
mound.
The Blues got away TO a slow start
this season, but have picked up in
form recently and expected to offer
stiff opposition this afternoon and
during the remainder of the series,
which continues through Sunday.
Weather forecast for this afternoon
indicated the teams drew a splendid
day for the Indianapolis opener.
Sunshine OF the morning encouraged
fans and a big rush for seats &C.

Governor Has Box
Only a few seats had been reserved
and nearly the entire grand stand was
open to the public. Boxes and seats in
the one sscreened-in section back of
the visitors dugout were the only
seats sold in advance. Many chairs
were placed in front of the grand
stand to meet an overflow and the
field stand was up in the right gar
den to accommodate others.
Governor Jackson and Mayor Du-
vail were expected to take part in
the parade and to occupy a box at
the game. Many other prominent
citizens also were present. There
was music and other features to
make the event equal big openings
of the past.
The Indians won eight games and
lost five while swinging around the
western half of the American Asso-
citation circuit. and if they improve
grounds, what more could be asked
