battle Of the series between Indians
and Saints and the namc of Adam
Generously was carried home by the
few fans present to explain to
others the reason for the second de-
feat of the Saints.
The former coal miner poled four
hits in five trips to the plate, one
being a home run that won the
game for the league leaders in the
ninth. He batted in three runs for
his club and the Betzelites escaped
with the days laurels, 6 to 5.
WarStler Delivers

Emil Yde went the ntire route
for the Tribesmen, although he was
in trouble often, the Apostles get
ting fourteen hits and five walks,
which was similar to the Indian
record. But st. Paul had thirteen
men left on base to ten for Indian
apolis.
The Wednesday victory increased
the lead of the HoosierS to better
than three and one-half games ow-
ing to the fact the best Minneapolis
could get in double header with
Louisville was an even break.
Milwaukee. pressing the Millers
for second place, won its ninth
straight game and supplied further
evidence that the Cream City squad
is aiming for the top. Brewers

Julian Vera, former Saint, OBJ

proved troublesome lad to the In
dams on Wednesday with four hits
in as many times at bat, and one of
his smacks was a double.
st. Paul used four pitchers, two
pinch hitters and two pinch runners
in a frantic effort to stave off de-
feat, but that circuit clout produced
by Comorosky in the final inning
ruined all local hopes.
Six of the Last Seven
The Indians have captured six of
their last seven starts and they are
getting opportune hitting with good

Yde barely stumbled through on
Wednesday.
Including today, the Tribe has two
more battles with Saints and then
the league leaders will move over to
Minneapolis for five games. Man
ager Bethel is handling his mound
department in expert style and the
entire team is in fine condition for
the bitter struggles to come.
There were only few faithful
fans on deck Wednesday, but what
the crowd lacked in size it made up
in enthusiasm. The Saints battled
courageously and finally tied the
score in the eighth only to lose out
when Comorosky hit his homer.

The Saints failed to hit effec-

were filled in the first inning with
but one out, an dagain in the sixth
and no scores. The Saints also got
three on in the seventh with two

Ten times a st. Paul hit would
have brought in one or more runs,
but it was not produced.
Connolly had five assists and Haney six.
Herman Layne helped his batting average

Yde helped his own cause by singing
