Although his only prior bid for

CLEVELAND, June 22-(R-
Things happen quickly in the wig
wan of the Cleveland Indians.
A week ago fans asked: How
long will Witt last?"
Today their question was: How
long will the Indians last?"
The clubs ascent to first place
in the wings of six straight vic
tories, coming after a 12-playe1
demand that Manager Oscar Wit
be fired, has stirred quiet pennan'
talk. But the talk is in an under
tore, because fans refuse to forge
the almost annual mid-summe1
dive of the Redskins.
Many believe the blow-of.
against Witt has eased the tension
and given players a new footing
Others expect the truce to enc
once the club starts losing.
President Alva Bradley, who ac'
cepted a retraction from the play
ers after refusing to GUST Witt, siz'
ed up the teams chances:
"All they need is confidence in
themselves. If they think they can
win, they can"
One factor is frequently over.

How Long Will Indians Last:?'
That's Question At Cleveland

Heath and Mel Harder, four tested
veterans, have been far below par
Trosky, n of the leagues tor
sluggers was a 1886 hitter last sea
son. Keltner had 1925 and Heath,
tagged a natural hitter, batted .29i
in 1889 and .343 the year before
All three are so to 70 percentage
points below their top form.
Harder, a highlander with one
of the best curves in the league,
has gotten underway slowly after
winning Is games last year. Add
Harder to 10-game winners Bob
Teller and AL Milnar, the surpris-
ing AL Smith and the comeback
bound Johnny Allen, and the In
dams will have one of the best
mound staffs in the loop.
Spanked by the keystone com.
bination of Lou Boudreau and Ray
Mack, the Indians have their best
defensive infield in years. The out
field easily will do, with the
speedy Roy Weatherly Daily max.
ING sensational catches.
Most fans agree the Indians win
only hit the skids if their battino
fails or if dissension breaks oft
anew. Trosky, Keltner and Heath
should solve the first problem
shortly. 4

A crowd of 15,O75 paid to see the
1889 league champions end a three
game losing streak as Turner gave
up only eight hits in winning his
fourth decision of the season. He
has lost three.
Lohrman's loss was his third after
six won. 1t was the first time the
Reds had been able to master his
deliveries this season, and last year
he was the worst nemesis, beating
them four out of five times.
The Giants blew a chance to stage
a ninth inning rally on some fool
ish base running by Joe Moore.
He got a life on Frank McCormick's
tumble, moved to second on Box
Seeds single, but failed to score
when Babe Young singled to right.
Moore, for some reason, stopped at
third after rounding the bag and
then was cut down at the plate
when he made a belated attempt
to score.
The Giants got their only run in
the seventh on Moore's double, and
Billy Werber's bad throw on Seeds
safe bunt.
The Reds scored once in the first
inning when Werber hunted safely,
a single by Gamble sent him tc
third and he tailed on Lonnie Frey's
long fly to center.
In the eighth Frey was on base
when lombard hit his homer into

For the third time this spring, q
Fitzsimmons.trained hopeful flashed
across the wire first in a nice spot
And for the third time the "objec

against it.
This time it was Mrs. H. c. Phipps'
Snow Ridge. He came along nicely
down Aqueduct's long stretch with
a record crowd of 20, $50 roaring
him along. Then, as Your Chance,
which now ranks as the second best

Snow Ridge went over the finish

Your Chance, collecting $3.50 for
the victory, lived up to the rating
everyone gave him after he wound
up second to Bimelech in the Bel
mont Stakes-that he would have
won except that he was held back too
long before making his bid.
It was the second time in two
weeks the disqualification sign was
trotted out for Snow Ridge. He fin.
ished on top in a s%ix-furlong allow

number was taken down on that oc-
casion, too, for the same fault. The
other similar setback for Mr.. Fitz
