IT'S always a battle when the
Il Indians and Colonies get to-
gether and the old rivals resume
action under the lights at Perry
stadium tonight at 8:15. The
contest will open a three-galne
set. Two tits will be played to-
morrow on the holiday, one in the
afternoon at o'clock and the
other at night at 8:15. 1t is eX-
pected that many 5O0-mile race
fans will stop off at the stadium
to watch the finish of the after
noon battle and then return for
the night struggle.
Above are pictured four of the
Colonies best bets, catcher Hank
Erickson, outfielder Goodm n
Rosen, outfelder Gilbert Brack
and pitcher Big Jim Peterson.
These FASTENERS have been max
ing things hum under Manager
Bruno Bethel and the Colonel
management believes at least
two of the group will be seen i'll
the majors in 1885.
Indians and Colonies have met
in only one series this year and
it was in Louisville, where the
Hoosiers annexed three out of
four. The game tonight, on the
eve of the 500-mile race, is eX-
pected to attract a big crowd.
Many race visitors, who also are
baseball fans, have yet to see
night baseball played and are
sure to grasp the opportunity
while in the city.

Kentucky Lad
Awarded Nod
Over Scotch
BuckIer Takes Down Close
Verdict; Three K. 0.S
Are Landed.
BY WAYNE FOX

Scotty Scotch, local feather
weight, got in there and tried to
mix it up with Jimmy Buckler of
Louisville as fans had been urging,
and that may have been what cost
Scotty the fight.
1t happened in the ninth when
Scotty went savagely at his big
chested opponent in corner. They
clinched and both fell out of the
ring. Buckler was unable to get up
for a few seconds and the referee
gave him a five-count.
Buckler, Kentucky feather champ,
fought stubbornly in the remainder
of that round and the tenth, and
was awarded the decision. Many
fans expressed surprise.
Plenty of Mixing
Although not fighting sensation
ally, Scotch had mixed it up as
much as Buckler until their fall.
Scotch landed neat rights to the
head in the fourth and eighth.
Buckler's hardest blow was Earring
right to the body in the fifth. He
was best in the mitigating.
Buckler weighed 1919, Scotch,
1861.
Kelly Petillo, pole position starter
in the 500-mile race tomorrow, was
a guest at the boxing show, held
under auspices of the Washington
A. G.
The dark, wavy-haired race driver
had his small son with him. Kelly
showed genuine surprise at the loud
applause he received on his intro
duction. During the fights he was
nervous as a race horse.
Three of the preliminary fights
ended in knockouts.
Rudney Floors Drake
Charlie Rudney, Chicago, cut his
ten-rounder with Ray Drake of In
dianapolis short by administering
knockout in the fourth. Drake
was f1oored two other times before
accepting the full count. Rudney
was the lighter, weighing 1862 to
his opponents 142.
A scheduled siX-rounder between
Jimmy Goodman and Kid Carson,
Negro, local FOUNDERS, drew the
most applause. Goodman won the
decision after gaining an edge in
the fourth by piling Carson up in a
corner for a nine-count.
Young Leach of Indianapolis
showed improvement by knocking
out Pat Lopez, durable Filipino, in
the fourth round of their scheduled
six rounder, and in the four-Tound
opener, Slavko Radich, Indianapolis,
knocked out Jack Sullivan, Green
wood, in the last round.

seasons sixth-place batting average
OF 1851, Terry is placing most of hi
eggs on the shoulders of his Ibis
tour" pitchers: Carl Hubbell, Ha
Schumacher, Freddie FitzsimmonS
and Leroy Parmelee. Memphis Bill
knows the odds are against the en-.
tire quartet going through the sea-
son without illness, injury or arm
trouble. That's why he's trying
desperately to get fifth ace finger
They are hard to get. If he sue
ceedS it will help a whole lot.
Depends on Pitchers
The pitching staff has trained
without the valuable nursing OF
catcher Gus Mancuso, who got into
uniform only recently because of a
typhoid siege. Is this staff as well
trained as that of 1888? We doubt
it. Moreover, Mancuso will not get
into the game at the start of the
season. His assistants, Harry Dan
ming and Paul Richards, scarcely
qualify. Francis Healy will not
stick. 1t is uncertain if Mancuso
will be up to par when he starts
work. Typhoid is a treacherous
fever.
Only the season will show whether
the lively ball will hinder the pitch
ers or help the batters. The Giants
have made a poor showing in exlai-
bition games, losing fifteen anC
winning eleven contests against ma
jor league opponents. But they
made a poor showing last season
also.
Travis Jackson Back
Bill Clark, whom Terry had been
counting upon as starting pitcher
developed arm trouble and is being
treated by physicians. His status
IS uncertain. Unless another ro-
tator is brought in, Terry may be
forced to call upon unproven Al
Smith, who was carried as coach
last season. His big time effect
iveneSS is speculative. Young Johnny
Salveson and a newcomer, Joe
Bowman, also are on hand. Her.
