With fair weather in sight an
other day at the Speedway, more
than a dozen speed pilots were ex-
pected to take to the bricks today.
What it finally has narrowed
down to at the track where the
drivers are preparing their mounts
for the qualifying trials for the 500
mile race, is a battle of speed and
speculation.
There are at least seven extra
high-speed creations at the track
and all are regarded as strong con-
tenders for the pole position. So
far, Ernie Triplett in a four
cylinder Miller, has knocked off the
best time of the year, more than 120
miles an hour.
But now comes Frank BriSko, the
Milwaukee garage owner, in his
four-wheel drive speedster, and the
word is floating over the Speedway

that Brisko has 125-mile -an-hour
ideas in his head.
Brisko has the fastest car ever
seen on the track here, but whether
he can pilot his mount around the
track to better Leon Duray's 1874
mile-an-h hour record is something
to ponder over.
Brisko went out Tuesday after
noon and would his buggy up to
1893 miles an hour-and coasting
in the turns. He may take that
1875 mile-an-ho try on Saturday
in the officially timed qualification
trials.
Bill Cummings, another pole po-
sition threat, knocked off 118 miles

III Tie SdIIle 1lllllllS dAlS1 O4lC Oue'
The relief pitching of Jack Using
for the TribeSmen was high class.
The slender Highlander, signed as
free agent when Kansas City
handed him his outright release,
was the third hurler employed by
Acting Manager Bill BurWell and
he stopped the Hens. allowing only
one hit in the last % innings
He famed three and walked the
same number.
Three-Run Rally
The Indians staged a three-run
rally in the second stanza and took
the lead, to 2. They scored again
in the seventh and eighth, but the
Hens also tailed in the seventh,
eighth and ninth and sent the
struggle into extra rounds. COoney
was relieved by Turner in the sew
enth and Jim lasted only l 2-3
innings and dropped out in favor OF
Using.
Thornton Lee and Bachman, both
southpaws, performed the chuck
ing for Toledo, the former giving
way to a pincn hitter in the sew
enth. Hits were eleven for Indian
apolis and thirteen for the Hens.
Victory to Using
Jack Using received credit for
the triumph and the defeat was
charged to Bachman. Ray White,
Tribe third sacker, led the hitting
with three blows, one a double, but
Wingard also was a big factor with
his two safeties, both for extra
bases, a double and triple.
Both clubs lost a flock of runs by
poor hitting in the pincheS and In
dianapolis had ten runners left on
base and Toledo sixteen.
Games today and Thursday will
bring the series to a close and the
Indians then will return home to
start night baseball at Perry sta
dunn against Louisville Friday.

Twin Bills and Twilight
MIGHT GAMES in Indianapolis


Il will begin at 8:l5, Sunday
double headers at 2 and Sunday
single games at 3. The Indians will
be home this year on only one holi-
day, July 4, with Toledo. They
will be at Columbus May 30, Deco
ration day, and at Louisville on
Labor day.
A new plan will be tried in June
when the weekday double headers
will start to take care of the many
early-season postponements. The
first games of the weekday twin
bills will begin in the twilight, at
5 p. m. at first and later at Sis.
This unusual arrangement was
tried at Buffalo last year and proved
a success. There will be no extra
charge for the second games, ex-
cept on July 4, when the double
header probably will be split, one
game at p. m. and the other a
night tilt at 8:15.

Eleven Pitchers Give 43
Hits in II Innings;

BY JACK CUDDY
United Press staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, May 17.-Just when
the experts were ready to blow taps
over the live ball-just when they
we're ready to award command OF
the diamond to the pitchers
Washington and Cleveland disrupted
the ceremonies by staging one of
widest hitting games in major
league history.
The Indians and Senators blasted
out the amazing total of forty-three
hits in Tuesdays historic contest.
just two short of the American cir
cult record.
The elbowers had been glorified
for their apparent supremacy over
batsmen, but a riot squad of eleven
pitchers was rushed to the mound
at Griffith stadium to halt the slug
gers bombardment during those
twelve impestuous innings. And
eleven pitchers in one game equals
the major league record established
by the Giants and Phillies in 1924
and tied by the Cubs and Phils in
1928
Yanks Regain Top
Washington beat Cleveland, II to
10. This pulled the Indians out of
first place in the American stand
ing, down to a second-place tie
with the Senators while the idle
New York Yankees rose again to
the top.
Cleveland paraded five fingers to
the box, and they were hammered
for tWenty-seven safeties, three less
than the American League record
for one club. The Senators used
six hurlerS and held" the Indians
to sixteen hits.
If the three hour and-tWenty-
four-minute contest had lasted a
little longer, both clubs might have
exhausted their reserves. Roger
PeCkinpaugh used two full teams
of eighteen players, while Joe
Cronin sent in sixteen, for a total
Of thirty-four men.
The Senator's first baseman, Joe
Kuhel, ended the game in the
twelfth when he drove a clean sin
gle through the pitchers box with
the bases loaded for the winning
run. He was the batting hero of
the day, making four other hits, in
Guiding a home run and a triple,
driving in five runs.
Browns Trip Boston
st. Louis Browns nosed out Bos-
ton in eleven innings, to 2, after
catcher Mervin Shea started an
Overwhelming rally with a single
and was driven in by Carl Reynolds.
Bump Hadley held the SoX to nine
hits, while Lloyd Brown and Bob
Cline yielded thirteen.
Pittsburgh retained the National
League lead when six doubles and
Gus Suhr's home run resulted in
the second straight victory over the
PhillieS, 8 to 4, but New York kept
on the Pirates heels by beating
Chicago, 4 to /, in the series opener.
Carl Hubbell scattered his eight hits
Boston pounded three Cincinnati
pitchers for eleven hits and 6-to-3
victory while Brooklyn downed st.
Louis, 6 to 5, when Johnny Freder-
