LOS ANGELES, July 14-Seem-
ingly stimulated by the magic name
of Paavo Johannes Nurni, the 1892
Olympic games became thing of
life today.
Thousands streamed to Olympic
village, the complete city built to
house the 1000 men competitors in
the games. Ticket officers reported
the best sales since they opened.
Even the athletes seemed to take
on additional steam.
The quickened tempo was gener-
ally attributed to the great Finnish
distance runner, who may not even
be able to compete in the celebra-
ton of the tenth Olympic, July 80
to Aug. IA.
Excitement was greatest at the
village, where the flags of sixteen
nations futtered before the admin
istration building.
Below the flags, passing to and
fro from the comfortable living
quarters in the village to practice
training fields, went athletes of the
sixteen nations
In front of the administration
building Will Rogers, humorist,
posed for photographs with Nurmi.

marathon title, the only distance
race which he has not won in pre-
vious Olympic games. Before he

Roger was enthusiastic over Cis-
sell, who drove in the winning runs
over the Athletics wednesday, and
the winning run the day before, and
Earl Averill. Cisselrs single in the
tenth inning Wednesday, with two
men out, enabled the Indians to
nose out the AS, 7 to 5, for their
fourth straight victory over Phila-
delphia.
Al Simmons drove out his twen-
tieth and twenty-first home runs in
vain and Lefty Grove was charged
with his second defeat in two days.
Oral Hildebrand, Indianapolis
youngster, went the route for Cleve-
land to chalk up his fourth win of
the season against one loss.
This victory boosted Cleveland
from fourth to second place and
dropped the AS to third position,
while the Tigers, who lost to the
Red Sox, 8 to 7, slumped to fourth
rung. Boston's triumph was the
third in five games with the Tigers.

down in the eighth, but was left
when Wingard came through with
two running catches in right field
Goldman and Purdy opened the
game with singles and there was
much excitement in the Hoosier
dugout. 1t looked like an early
rally. It was snuffed out immedi-
ately, however, when Hale hit into
double killing.
Goldman poled three hits for the
Indians and accepted eight chances
at short. Wingard also got three
blows. No extra base Safeties were
credited to the Tribe while Milwau-
kee collected four doubles. Sigafoos
and Hale of the Tribe are slipping
with the bat and absence of base
hits on their part is proving big
handicap.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1932-07-14

The lone run of the fracaS was
scored in the third inning, and
crossed the plate on an out when
Taitt forced Wingard at second, al
lowing time for Purdy to register at
the plate from third. The Tribes
men filled the bases with one down
and after Purdy scored, while the
Brewers were trying for double
play Sigafoos struck out. The In
dams left ten men on bases in the
first six innings.
Bolen was given brilliant support
and it took that kind of backing to
put him over. Chief Mccain shook
up his lineup and used Taitt, Pur-
dy and Wingard in the outtield and
Angley catching as a means OF
placing in the lineup as many left
handlers as possible against the
right-handed Caldwell. The Hoo
siers dropped three in a row before
Wednesday.
Milwaukee threatened at times
and in the fourth was on the point
of rallying. Gullic, first up, singled,
but Goldman shared Hoffman's hot
smash and turned it into double
play. Metzler doubled and Koehler
walked, but SigafooS saved the day
by making circus stop on Youngs
grounder. Young doubled with one

When baseball's most heroic fig
ure retires from the diamond he
will have played twenty-one seasons
of professional baseball, fifteen of
which were with the Yankees. He
now is working on a one-year con-
tract at the presidential salary of
$4,000, the highest paid player in
the game.
As HOmers for 1892
The Babe announced his plans
during an interview in the swelter-
ing dugout at Yankee stadium, Just
before the game with the st. Louis
Browns, in which he drove his
twenty fifth home run of the sea-
son.
I'm still in pretty good shape"
the great slugger explained. But
I'm not as good as I used to be.
There's no use denying that. I fig
ure I'll knock out about forty-fve
home runs this season, and about
the same number in each of the
next two seasons unless something
happens to me.
I'm beginning to feel the years
little, and 1 believe it would be
unfair to the public, to Colonel
Rupert and to myself to try to
keep on playing after I'm 49,"
The reporter asked if Ruth would
attempt {, to serve as player manager
for club.
Golf Pro? No Chance
mo, I'll simply be manager" Babe
replied, wiping the perspiration
from his face. boy, you could fry
an egg in this place"
When questioned about the pos
sibilities of his becoming a profess
sional golfer, the Bambino said
there was no chance of that.
"Oh, I might shoot a few exhibit
ton games, but I'll be too old to
go in for golf in a big way. Golf
is like everything else To be top
notcher you have to grow up with
the game. I play a fair game now
and then, hitting pretty close to
par, but I'm not consistent"

NEW YORK, July 14.-Cleveland's
Indians have swept into second
place in the American League be-
cause of heavy hitting and the "old
click" manager Roger Peckinbaugh
said Wednesday night after arriving
from Philadelphia.
YES sir!" declared Big Chief
Peck, this teams clicking better'n
any taxi meter you ever saw, and
the boys are hitting like nobodys
business.
That's the secret of our success,
if you want to call it that Of
course we haven't arrived at the
top yet. We're still nine and half
games behind the Yanks. But I
think our three-game series with
the New York outfit will chop that
down some"
Peckinpaugh had praise galore for
Bill Cissell, his second Sacker.
His batting and fielding certain
ly are doing us a world of good"
The semi-bald manager said his
team had been getting pretty fair
pitching too, nothing extraordi-
nary, but good enough to win the
support of our hitterS."

fourteen years. It seemed to Tom that his life was like a gray pro- cession marching like gray cowled figures, one by one, to his grave.
 Time and again this Christmas, as the holly wreaths began to shine dimly through the dirty windows of his district, Tom found himself asking this sinister question. Was this cowled, gray procession of his days worth the living? More and more frequently, as these thoughts squatted upon him, Tom found his badly-shod feet wander ing down toward Brooklyn bridge.
 Countless men and women had jumped off it for surcease from the misery of failure. It seemed as good way as any to avoid the one more meaningless Christmas. And yet somehow, there was not in

Down around the Bowery, Christ mas comes in murkily. Even more so than in the old days when there was an air of lurid fsetivity to this down. n-at-the-heel section Of the greatest metropolis of the world. All that has gone now. There are no more knee high swinging doors to invite the sordid reveler or the threadbare celebrant. All that remains of a picturesque yesterday are the rows of lean and lusterless buildings which house petty shops and lunch counter eating places and m ems hotels, where the wayfarsr may obtain a cot for fifteen cents and cruller for five.
 Tom Mason, who had a three days growth of beard, a turned up coat collar and a pulled down cap visor, and who walked close to the sordid buildings, as if for their sordid protection, was one of hun dreds who presented almost precisely his personal appearance as Christ mas week descended sootily upon the Bowery
