Tribe WalIops Senators,
Then Suffers Shutout
on Sunday.
RY EDDIE ASH

BIZ EOD1E ASh
The best the Indians could get
out of the four-game series with the
cellar Senators that closed Sunday,
was a split and today the Bethel
ties received a vacation, the Monday
contest having been played as part
of the Sabbath double-header.
And the home FASTENERS no doubt
can use the rest. The schedule
calls for the league-leading Toledo
Hens to invade Washington Park,
Tuesday and the way things have
been going locally causes the Tribe
followers to view the Hen visit with
that "shaky feeling" that comes
over one when the cops are about to
raid the fat.
Hens on Rampage
Toledo and indianapolis have met
seven times this season, and the
Hens have annexed six of the en-
gagements. Furthermore, the league
pacemakers have won eleven
straight games.
The mauling men of Casey STEM
gel are booked here for five
games.
And In between will be the
Tribes exhibition with Ownie
Bush's Pittsburgh Pirates Thurs
day. A large week, to be sure,
for the Indian FASTENERS and
Washington Park customers.
To make up for Thursday, Hens
and Indians will play twin bill
Saturday.
The Indians won two and lost one
in the three battles with Columbus
over the weekend. Burwell tanned
the invaders Saturday, 10 to 4
Boone baffled the tailenders in the
first tilt Sunday and won, 10 to 2,
and then the Hoosiers got shut out
by zumbro in the Sabbath finale
4 to 0.
The Indians slaughtered the
Senator hurlers and got fifteen
hits in the opener Sunday. Russell,
Florence and Boone poled home
runs and Matthews, Bethel and
Anderson clouted doubles.
The locals stole four bases, played
errorless ball and otherwise con-
Quoted themselves as world beaters.
But Zumbro, the young Senator
finger, put the brakes on the Tribe
attack in the second tilt, allowing
only four hits and getting spectacu-
lar support
Walk Starts It
1t was a pitchers battle, with
Dixie Leverett operating for the
Tribe. Dixie did not permit a bingle
until the seventh, when a base on
balls undermined him. He passed
Nicolai, first up, and grooved the
first pitch to Sullivan, who crashed
a drive to right center that hoped
away from Matthews for three bases,
Nicolai scoring-and the deadlock
was broken.
Horn brought in Sullivan with a
sacrifice fly. Leibold singled Fer
rell home in the eighth and the
Senators bagged another marker
off Koupal in the ninth.
AS for zumbro, he had only one
bad inning and escaped from that
when Schliebner made a great play
on Pinch Hitter Florence's drive in
the eighth when the Tribe had men
on second and third.
Fine Fielding Plays
The snappy fielding of the first
sackers, Schliebner and Holke, and
of the pitchers, zumbro and Lev
erett, were outstanding features.
Both battles we're run off in fast
time, the first in 37 and the second
in lis. All action was over at 5:21.
About 1900 fans viewed the double
bill.
In six of nine innings only three
Indians faced Zunbro. And in five
of the first six rounds only three
Senators faced Leverett to the in
ming.
Leverett had eight assists in the

n ETTING back to the recent

En- considered bad matchmaking
ring circles. Smith is three
ches taller and weighs at least %
bounds more than Bancroft.
Sending Joe Dundee, welter
champ, against Jack Delaney, light
heavy heavy titleholder, gives you
some idea of the difference OF the
principals as to size.
Delaney would be regarded as an
awful egg if he couldn't kayo Dun
dee, so by similar line of reason
ing Smith is entitled to no great
credit for his physical victory over
the smaller and much older Ban
croft.
Not being familiar with what hap
pened on the ball field, I have no
desire to comment on the right or
wrong of the affair, but it seems as
if Smith took no great physical
chance when he tied up with Ban
croft.

Tuesday morning at 9, the Indian
apolis Women's Golf Association will
start a two-day fest at South Grove,
which, in addition to being open to
all its members, is also open to all
women in the city who may choose
either of the two days to affiliate
with the organization.
1t goes without saying that we be-
lieve utilization with the associa-
ton is about the best thing any
woman golfer of the city can do,
providing of course, she has reached
the stage of her game that she
wishes to better it by tournament
play.
Second This Year
The tourney Tuesday and
Wednesday will be the second meet
promoted by the local women's body
this year. A one-day event was con-
Quoted at The Meridian Hills course
several weeks ago.
The affair at South Grove will
be two distinct events, with sepa-
rate set of prizes for each days
play. The plan was worked out for
those women who cannot devote
two days in succession to golf.
Mrs. G. A. Tucker, who took over
the presidency of the women'S Or
ganization after Mrs. William Bar
rere, Jr., encountered i'll health, has
arranged other tournaments for the
year. A one-day meet will be staged
at the indianapolis Country Club,
July IL. On Aug. 2, 3, 4 and 5, the
city championship tourney will be
held on the Coffin course.
Two more tournaments will be
staged Aug. IS at Broadmoor and
Aug. 16 at Highland.
In addition to the above tourna-
ments many local women will be at
FIT. Wayne July 1922, to play in the
Indiana State women's champion
ships. Miss Elizabeth Quinn, 1ndi-
annapolis, will be on hand to de-
fend her crown, won last year at

In CONNECTION

PHOENIX, April R.-Search
throughout the southwest has been in
stituted for Ed Menges, S3, former Eel

terious shooting last night of his wife,
Marie Menges, 81, and her male COM
paRion, Harry l.. Gordon, of Seattle,>
Wash, while they were seated in
parked automobile on lonely stretch
of road near Phoenix. Mrs Menges
died today and Gordon lies critically
wounded in local hospital.
Police spread q dragnet from the
Texas panhandle to the Mexican border
and as far west as San Francisco for
Menges when he could not be located
following the shooting, which, accord
ing to the story told police by Gordon,
was done by a holdup, who was de-
scribed as being Of dark complexion"
That the shooting was perpetrated
by holdup was secuted tonight by
police, who said that there had been
nothing uncovered in connection with
the case which would indicate that
robbery was the motive, inasmuch as
neither of the wounded couple were
molested after their assailant had
riddled them with pistol fire from be-
hind a screen of pitch blackness
Two children, girl eight and a boy
ten, survive Mrs Menges. Gordon, ac-
cording to police, is married.
Menges was recently discharged as

project, 65 miles east of here. 1t was
learned tonight that Menges sold his
car at Mesa, town 20 miles east Of
