on account of the critical illness Of
his mother at Easton, Pa. The mes
sage came from sister and said:
Mother is near death"
The importnce of opening day to
Frank was thrust aside and he
caught the first train home and was
speeding eastward today. Manager
Killefer remarked: There will be
lot Of opening days for Frank. I
told him to reach the bedside of his
mother as fast as he could travel"
Vincent Sherlock, the stalwart re-
serve infielder, was to fill in at Sec
ond base for Sigafoos. He played in
the Pacific Coast League last year,
but has not seen action this season
except some brief exercise in eXhi-
bition games. Sherlock was out of
condition more or less during spring
training owing to injuries and is
just now rounding into form.
When Vincent was informed of the
serious illness of Sigafoos' mother
and told to be ready for play he re-
piled that he would do his best to
do everything like Frank.
Hens Pick Right hander
Manager ONeill Of the Mud Hens
said he would send Roxie Lawson
to the rubber to face jim Turner.
Lawson is a right-hander, the same
as the HoOsier hurler. Garbark. a
new backstop, was expected to catch
for the boys from the banks of the
Maumee, with Gene DeSautels also
awaiting the call
The Hens captured two out OF
three from the Indians in Toledo
last week and the Tribesmen are
eager to even the score. The Hens
will be here two days and will be
followed by the Columbus Red
Birds on Thursday, Friday and Sat-
urday before the Indians go to
Louisville to begin a series with the
Colonies on Sunday.
Montague at Third
The Indians wound up in third
place last year and Toledo finished
in a tie for fifth. Eddie Montague.
Toledo third sacker, formerly PLAYED
shortstop for the Hoosiers. He has
been going in grand style around
the hot corner.
Harry Davis, Hen first sacker,
kept the Indians in hot water dur
ing the three games at Toledo. He
walloped nine hits in the three
tits and seldom was retired by the
Kllleter FASTENERS. He formerly
played with Detroit and only re-

west coast to prepare for the big
race say is probably a sign that
Arnold will drive.
Moreover, they report, Arnold and
Hartz have been in several huddles
on the west coast, another fact
pointing to a reunion of the team
that won the long gasoline mara
thon in 1880, and which, except for
accidents would have repeated in
1881 and 1882.
The racing world knows this pair
as an almost perfect combination.
Hartz is a master constructor of
racing automobiles, and Arnold is
famed for his ruthless assault on
the gas pedal once he points cars
nose away from the pits.
He came from almost obscurity in
1880 to win a great race, and led
for 400 miles in 1881 before a broken
wheel spun him over the wall He
led again the following year for $50
miles, and again went over a wall
trying to dodge a car spinning in
front of him.
