Tribe InvadeS Milwaukee
After Idle Week End
Tied for Second.

Bruno Bethel had his Indians in
Milwaukee today to open a four
game series with the Brewers and
the Tribesmen were pulling hard
for action. They haven't played
since Friday owing to the heavy
showers in Kansas City during their
visit to Kawtown.
Three of the four Tribe Blue con.
tests were postponed, making
total of eight postponements for the
Indians since the season opened. 1t
has been a tremendous expense TO
Owner Smith-transporta hotel
bills and salaries going on without a
dime coming in.
But there is something unusual
about everything. The Tribe was
in a tie with Toledo this morning
for second place and only one-half
game out of first position, situa.
ton brought about by other teams
cutting each others throat while
the Indians were held idle by rain.
And there is n chance for the
Betzelites to be in the league lead
tonight. providing they defeated Mil.
waukee today and if Minneapolis
downed Toledo and Columbus beat
ST. Paul
The Trihesmen did rot throw a
ball over the Weekend. A rain of
the flood variety struck Kansas City
Saturday and endeavored to float
part of the town away. It prevented
a Saturday contest and put the X.
c. grounds out of commission for
Sunday.

BAD PAIR OF DOGS

card funny one the other
III day that is worth repeating,
III even though it was pulled at
the expense of one of the best UNI
pires in the majors.
This particular umpire has a
rather peculiar walk that causes one
to believe him tough, always look
ing for trouble. Such isfar from the
case.
1t seems a certain foot, trouble is
much the cause of the pugilistic
walk rather than any desire to be
rated as tough.
In a recent game, the umpire
happened to pull decision that
didn't please the home folks and
finally resulted in one of the play
ers getting the gate. /
The dispute ended, the umpire
walked back to his position at first
base in his usual manner, when a
fan with a loud voice piped:
You're not so tough, fellow. It's
Just a bad pair of dogs that make
you walk that way"
Players and umpires, as well as
fans, roared at the wise crack be-
cause the fan unknowingly had hit
the nail on the head.

Although the Senators hit the ball
farther and oftener, four Washing
