EVANSVILLE, Ind, March 30. -
Weather was ideal here yesterday
and today for spring training and
the Indians of Red Killefer finally
decided that there is some warm
sunshine after all. The Tribe chief
tain sent the Hoosier FASTENERS
through the best workout of the
spring yesterday, and another long
session, including everything, was
planned for today.
Bosse field had dried out enough
to enable the athletes to cut loose
and they remained at the park
nearly four hours yesterday. Bat
ting drill was held and infielderS and
outf1elderS were sent through the
PAGES at their favorite positions.
The pitchers had big day and the
hitters were given all of the swat
ting practice they desired.
Miljus Is Ill
Manager Killefer used every hurl-
er in camp except John MiljuS, who
is recovering from a severe cold.
He was a very sick veteran for a
few days and at one time pneumo-
mia threatened Miljust wintered on
the west coast and the long trip
here and Wintry weather during the
early days Of training caused him to
weaken. Miljus was ordered to re-
main in bed yesterday by Manager
Killefer and the physician in charge
stated it would be wise for the big
fellow to rest a few days.
Owner Norman A. Perry landed
in Evansville yesterday and it is
presumed he is here to confer with
Killefer on the subject of salary diff
ferenceS with certain players. Pitch
er Jim Turner and outfielder John
Cooney were expected to report to-
day. They are long overdue.
Outfielder Vernon Washington
continues to show great power at
the plate and outfielder Harry Ros-
enburg also is looking good this
spring. Rosie walloped two drives
over the left field wall yesterday.
Killefer let the rockies bat yester-
day from 10 to II o'clock and the
veterans then took charge and
crashed the horsehide to all parts
for two hours.
Lawrie Promising
During the infeld practice Fred
Bedore held down first base, Siga-
foos and Sherlock shares the work
at second; Joe Lawrie, indianapolis
rookie, was at third, and Dudley
Lee and Ray White at shortstop
Riddle. Sprinz. Wyss and Lombardo
took turns catching. Wyss made a
favorable impression. He is a grad
uate Of the Indianapolis sand lots.
Lawrie also caught Killefer's eye
and it is believed this youngster will
make strong bid to stay with the
team.
Sherlock performed exceptionally
well at second. He knows all OF
the tricks and is an experienced

the indoor relays: why, no one
knows, particularly because track
records usually are claimed or dis
allowed On the basis of weather con-

they were made on one track or

According to officials and en-
gineerS of the Macmillan organiza-
ton, Ring Free employs an entirely
different method of refining in that
it's distilling temperatures are con-
trolled and with emphasis on the
