Dispute In First Round
Minneapolis played the Friday
night tilt under protest after the
first inning over a dispute at first
base when Tom Dunn. umpire in
chief. overruled w. F. Clayton. the
field arbiter. Chapman grounded 10
Smith after two down and Hauser
dropped the throw as Pete crossed
the sack. Clayton ruled out and
then safe, but the runner heard
only the "out" decision and swerved
to 90 to his position in right field
The Millers hastily made play on
him back on the grass and when ne
was tagged, Clayton ruled out
again.
There was an argument and UNI
pire Dunn called the runner safe.
1t was then that Manager Bancroft
lodged a protest.
Home Run Ring stopped
Lefty Logan struck out the mighty
Joe (Howitzer) Hauser twice. Joe
has fifty-two home runs to his
credit and is striving TO break the
league record of fiftv-four. He got
single and walk. however. Kille-
fer and his Indians are determined
to keep Joe tanned and he will see
some more southpaw pitching this
evening. probably Stewart Bolen in
the 4:45 game and AL Butzberger,
new lefthander, in the night fracas.
The Indians whacked out seven
doubles during their hitting spree
Friday night and scored in the sec
ond, third. three times in the fifth
and twice in the eighth. Minneap-
oils employed three hurlers, Van
denberg. Hilcher and Tauscher and
the first named was charged with
the defeat. The Indians played err
rorless ball back Of Logan and the
fans were we'll entertained.
Chapman Shines
1t was Indiana night" and Pete
Chapman, lone native Hoosier on
the Tribe roster, made himself es-
pecially prominent. He poled a
single and double, drew one walk,
stole two bases, scored one run and
batted in one. Moreover Chappie
turned in the best play of the night
in the eighth when he robbed Ernie
Smith Of an extra base hit by
sprinting over near the foul line to
make a catch of a whistling low
liner. The Richmond lad is full of
dash.
