By EDDIE ASH
Times Sports Editor


It's becoming difficult for Indians
and Red Wings to save their little
worlds series" complexion, but the
boys haven't lost any of the old de-
termination and we're ready to troop
to Washington Park again today
and endeavor to resume the strife
in the Class AA classic.
The American Association cham
pionS and International League
pennant winners were rained out
Wednesday and as result it has
been three days since they saw ac-
ton. Sunday in Rochester was
their last meeting and the athletes
are filled with a desire to get out
there and get it over with.
Start at 2 p. M.
The battle this afternoon was to
begin at 2 o'clock, and it was to
be the fifth clash of the series, four
having been staged in Rochester.
The Indians annexed two of the
Rochester tiltS, lost one and tied
one, and three more victories are
necessary to capture the inter-
league laurelS. The Red Wings need
four more, and If neither club is
able to win consistently the big mi
nor event is certain to carry over
into next. week.
Thousands of fans were disap-
pointed when showers ruined the
show Wednesday and many didn't
make the trip to the park. There
we're about $500 customers on hand
awaiting action, but there wasn't
a chance at 2 o'clock. The field was
in good shape at noon today, how
ever.
Pitchers Well Rested
Pitching staffs of both teams are
well rested and some twirlers are
even in danger of going stale for
lack of work.

Wings this afternoon, Spencer was

States Feeble Minded
Camp Below Par.
REPORT TO JACKSON
Relative as Executive of

directly Hit.


brother of Governor Ed Jackson as
superintendent of both the State
Farm Colony for the Feeble Minded
at ButlerVille and the State School
for Feeble Minded Youth, and con-
duct of the institutions is indirectly
raped by the State Board of
Charities in a report to be submitted
to the Governor today.
The report recommends: THAT
the appointment to any position in
the State institutions of a relative
of any member of the board of
trustees be prohibited"
Jackson as Governor is an ex-of-
ficio member of the boards of all
State institutions.
The charities board report says
the States provision for the feeble
minded is far below standard"
I'VE have at Ft. Wayne the
School For Feeble-Minded Youth
with a department for women of
child-bearing age, and at Butler
vile farm for custodial cases.
NJ OESdHlLCu system
"Ft. Wayne has no organized pa
role system. Most of the youths
have become adults and most of
the women of held bearing age
long have passed that period.
There is urgent need for some
reorganization and development at
that institution if it is to be a real
school and the colony at Butler
vile should be enlarged for custo-
dial purposes"
The charities board recommends
new buildings at Butlerville, devel-
opment and extension of clinics
and establishment of wage earning
colonies at Ft. Wayne and the plac-
ing of all tractable, better-grad
feeble-minded children in homes
under direction of trained social
workers.
In addition to the disapproval of
employment of relatives of trustees,
it is recommended that a trustee
of any State institution be declared
ineligible for appointment to any
position in that institution during
his term and for one year there
after.
Merely Presented Facts"
1t is urged that educational work
of all State institutions be placed
under supervision of the State sup
erintendcnt of public instruction,
as now is provided by law for the
Indiana Boys School.
Chairman John A. Brown of the
charities board asked if the report
Of the feeble-minded institutions
was not rather slap at the Gov
ernor's brother" said:
THE board merely presented
facts as they found them in regard
to all institutions"
Abandonment of the Marion
County Hospital for the Insane at
Julietta was recommended and pur-
chase of a farm site near Indian

tions will require special appropria-
tions and legislative action.
other projects listed for expansion

Need for new buildings at State
hospitals, including Central here,
was cited.
The recommendation for a pSy-
chiatric hospital pointed out that a
l00-bed institution, with an ade-
quate clinic for cases of incipient
mental disorders and nervous
breakdown cases, is needed sorely.

The attendance at one of the
1926 world series games which
brought the same two teams to-

beside the visitors.

Grover Cleveland Alexander stood
alongside Sherdel as the Cardinals
crack left handler tossed them over
to Jack OnSlow.
The New York Yankees. despite
the 10 to odds against them, were
full of fight and far from downcast.
"Just when it looks blackest for
us is when we do the best" said
little Miller Higgins, manager of
the American League pennant win
ners as he sent Hoyt, the Brooklyn
mortician out to warm up. Hoyt,
the only Yankees pitcher in first
class shape, was hopeful of laying
away the Cardinal batterS
A crash of wood and horSehide
interrupted the peaceful proceedings
of batting practice an hour before
game time, when Babe Ruth caught
one on the nose and drove it into
the distant right field bleachers.
Crowd RoarS Approval
The rising roar of the crowd as
the ball took flight drowned out
the efforts of the band which blar-
ed martial airs from a position of
comparative safety at the extremity
of the left field foul line.
Bright sunshine, plenty of
warmth to favor the players and
fans, and practically no breeze made
the afternoon ideal for baseball.
The Yankees, in bright white
uniforms, had the hearts of the
fans, even though they we're on the
short end of the betting. This was
apparent from the way the crowd
followed every move of the Ameri-
can League champions when they
started batting practice.
Cheers for Babe
Come on, Babe" yelled the fans
in right field, "hit one out here,
and once more the Babe obliged.
Then the Cardinals, in their red
trimmed, road gray uniforms, took
the field, cockey and confident.
Bill McKechnie, grim and nervous
posed with Miller Higgins in front
of the visitors dugout and then
went to his favorite post beside the
batting cage to watch his Sluggers
take their practice swings.
The umpires came out in their
blue uniforms and shook hands with
McKechnie and Higgins. Then
there was roar from the crowd as
the Yankees took the field.
Judge Lands was required tc
throw out the first ball in place Of
Jimmy Walker, tardy New York
mayor.
The umlires held quite a lengthy
conference, while Taylor Douthit
The first st. Louis batter, stood By
swinging couple of bats, ready fol

Judge Lands tossed out a new
baseball and the world series was
really on.
