The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1934-04-18

Johnny COOney led the IrlDe at
tack with a double and two singles,
Dudley Lee followed with three one
base blows and Vernon Washington
combed the horsehide for two time
ly safetieS that batted in three runs.
Logan helped win his own game by
hitting twice with runners in posi-
ton to score and batted in three
markers.
Shevlin and Sigafoos we're others
who poled two hits for the Killefer
crew, and the former also played
a bang up game in the field around
first base. The Indians tailed once
in the first, once in the third, twice
in the fourth, twice in the seventh,
four times in the eighth and once
in the ninth. Toledo chalked up
two markers in the second round
and then was BANKED until the
final session, when Logan tired and
lost speed and control. He had a
good lead, however, and Manager
K1lefer left him out there to bat
tie it through. The bases were
loaded with Hens when the game
ending out was made.
Turner on Mound Today
Jim Turner was slated to take
the Tribe mound in the series Sec
ond tilt this afternoon. He is
mainstay right-hander of last
years staff. Joe Sprinz was to get
the backstopping assignment TO-DAY,
with the remainder of the Indian
lineup the same as yesterday
Truett Sewell, right-hander, a new
pitcher on the Toledo staff, was
to go for the hens, with
De Sautels catching.
It was announced before the
opening game at Swayne field yes
terday that the estimate on at
tendance was 5000, but checkup
following The contest revealed
actual paid admissions as 1886. The
free gate received big play from
bandsmen and other opening day
club guests, but the official paid
total was far below expectations.
Weather was ideal for baseball,
and now the Toledo club officials
are moaning because they sent
their Hens to Texas for spring
training at the cost of about $4,000.
Hens Use 3 Hurlers
Logan issued eight walks, in the
opener, but almost balanced this
wildness by scoring six strike outs.
Toledo employed three pitchers,
Lawson, highlander; Bachman,
southpaw, and Doljack, Highlander.
The first two named were handed
severe humping.
Steve O'Neill's Hens spent a mis-
cradle day in the field and six er-
rors were charged, four in the ninth.
Art Shires opened at second for the
home nine, but is unlikely to stay
there. He is too slow for the posi-
ton, and Harry Davis apparently is
a fixture at first This Davis Lad,
down from Detroit and batting left
handed against southpaw flinging,
combed two doubles and single.
Young Joe Zapustas, q, right handed
giant, whaled two ringing singles.
He is the former Fordham univer-
sity football idol. Eddie Montague,
former Indian, also solved Logan
for two blows, one a double.
The Indian FASTENERS were alert
in the field and backed Logan with
solid support. The Tribesters shared
the. difficult chances and held no
fear of leaving their feet for diving
stops. Johnny Cooney roamed far in
center and bagged six putouts. Two
ambitious Indian base runners, Lee
and Cooney, we're nailed on perfect
throws in the third by ZapustaS and
Galatzer. Galatzer also turned in
sparkling catch in the sixth when
he speeded to the fence and took
Rosenberg's drive with one hand.
Lefty Logan joined his infelderS
on the defense by protecting his po-
sition with speed. He had two as
sistS and twice covered first base
for putouts on throws from Jimmy
Shevlin.
M1.lager O'Neill of the Hens lee
tured his men after the game and
then consoled them with the state
ment that: I'VE made enough boots
