INDIANS AND RED BIRDS MEET AGAIN TONIGHT AT STADIUM; ROY TO TAKE MOUND FOR TRIBE SEEKING REVENGE TWIRLER LEVY LOSE 3 CLOSE ONE WHEN TEAM MATES FIELD LOOSELY AND FAIL AT BAT IN THE PINCHES The Savannah Indians eager for revenge for the defeat handed them last night at the hands of the Co lumbus Red Birds will take to the diamond tonight in the second meet ing of these two clubs. Their “murderer’s row” effectively silenced by Crockett in last night’s set-to, the Tribe hopes to regain some of their lost ground in the pennant race by a victory in tonight s battle. Emil Roy, the stocky right hander for the Tribe is slated to take the mound. Colbem Leads Locals Their batting “big guns” effectively silenced by the combined hurling ef forts of Moore and Crockett, the Sa vannah Indians went down to defeat last night at the hands of the Co lumbus Red Birds. The lithe second sacker, Colbem seemed to be the only Indian who was able to get his eye on the ball as he got two out of three to lead the Tribe's parade. Columbus got away to an early start in the first stanza when pushed a lone tally across the plate as a result of a walk issued to Harriott who stole second and third. Making a track meet of the bases the fleet footed centerfielder came in on a single hit by Gruzdis. Savannah came back with a run in the third when Levy came in on a smashing triple by Lunak. Indians Field Loosely The game rocked along until the fifth stanza when Columbus appeared to have the game sewed up with two men coming in for the black side of the ledger. Oehler and Garriott scored as a result of a wiM throw by Jake Hines in handling Harris’ grounder and a smashing single by Crockett. Savannah came back in their half of thia stanza to score a single run when Oolbem came in on a single by Tuckey, the vociferous catcher for the Tribe. This conclud ed the scoring for both theams and there was no hint of a possible scor ing threat for the remainder of the game on the part of the Indians. Jake Levy gave up ten hits to lose one of the few games charged against him this season. Appearing to have the situation well under control, the rotound hurler was pushed In+o defeat by the fleldiing miscues of his infield and the team’s inability to hit in the pinches;with runners on the based.

SPORT CELEBS~| Wk Wk / w JOHN ALLEN A HOT-TEMPERED southerner, j. nny Allen has provided the base .ll writers with more stories than ossibly any other major league fling er. Since Allen was traded to the In iana this year, several major league managers have taken to “riding” him, , i harging he uses the spitball. Umpires ay they never have found him doctor ng a ball. But the accusations do 1 pset Allen, and several times he has 1 ’ashed from the box to the coaching i !ne to swing at “jockeys". Native of Lenoir, N. C., where he as born Sept. 30, 1905, Allen start ci his baseball career at Fayetteville. He reached the Yankees in 1932. He as been a consistent winner, despite 1 is frequent flareups.

L£A&Ueff - ALL-STAR. GAME- CEAHbAt, PBMS FAMED DRIVERS TO PARTICIPATE IN AUTO CLASSIC I WORLD RENOWNED CHAR IOT “WHEELERS” COM PETE AT SPEEDWAY WASHINGTON, D. C., June 5—A number of definite changes from rules which govern the famous Indian apolis race have been decreed by the Contest Board of the American Auto mobile Associaion for the first an nual 400-Mile International Sweep stakes at Roosevelt Raceway on Long Island next October 12. Outstanding are the rules which eliminate the riding mechanics so prominent at Indianapolis since 1930 and those that do away with the gaso line limit. At Roosevelt Raceway both the trim little single-seater cars and the big two-man mounts will be allowed, but in the latter case mechanics will not be permitted to ride. While entrants in the 400-milcr will have problems aplenty to over come, they will be spared the gasoline restriction which has been an import ant ruling at Indianapolis since 1934. Each of the 45 starters will be allow ed fuel consumption of his own choorlng. At Indianapolis on Decora tion Day, the 33 starters were restrict ed to 37 1-2 gallons of gasoline f:r each car, a limit which stood at 45 gallons in 1935 and 47 1-2 in 1934. In the hope of attracting foreign entries, the Roos;velt Raceway man agement has re:<?»ed the endorse ment of the three "A” in their rul? to allow superchargers, to permit any weight of car and to generally “let down the bars.” However, in the interest .of fair competition, all en gines are resticted to the maximum piston displacement of 366 cubic inches. The capital prize purse will be $50,- 000, plus consolation prizes of $lO,- 000. In addition, many accessory prizes are anticipated to bring the total to some SIOO,OOO. This is also the general set up of prizes at Indian apolis. Tr.e first speedway course of its type, Roosevelt Raceway is four miles long and is made up of 15 straight aways and 20 curves. The home stretch is 5-8 mile long and the short est straightaway is 1.25 feet. It will be a hard-surfaced course. Because of its unique design and the problems it will present, Roosevelt Raceway has been accepted by the three “A” con test Board as “the laboratory of driv ing safety.” Along "Gasoline Alley” at Indian apolis, where the speedway stars are preparing their motors for other Na tional Championship campaigns, many of America’s big league drivers are planning new cars for the October 12 inaugural at Roosevelt Raceway.

The Nebraska lawmaker announced several months ago that he would retire when his present term ends. Not even the urging of President Roorevelt could persuade him to change his mind. Norris’ backers have mapped out a campaign to make his entering the rr.ee imperative. They are sending petitions throughout Nebraska asking voters to join their drive. Norris must file his candidacy by October 3. By that time, his friends hope to have 75.000 names on their petitions urging him not to break off in his 33-years of service in Con gress.

The track team journeyed to Philadelphia with a confidence which was entirely justified when, after the smoke of battle had cleared away, 29% points had been piled up. In the picture, Capt. Robert Linders of Cornell, is shown with the trophies of the victory. (Central Prcß9) BOOM SOUGHT FOR FIRESIDE SEWING NEW YORK, June 4 (TP)—Tne merchandising expert, H. L. Benning ton. proposed today that the Nation al Retail Dry Goods Association Launch a big-time campaign to boost the interest of American women and girls in fireside sewing. Bennington, of Newark’s L. Bamberger and Com pany, suggested the plan to some of the men who would be most inter ested—sewing machine men, cotton men and spokesmen for the rayon, linen, thread and allied industries. Bennington suggested the cam paign be financed with from $250,000 to $500,000 for one year. He said an educational campaign might persuade girls and women that they could do well to pick up the needle and thread and lend individuality to their own garments at home. The first regular English parlia ment, comprised of the clergy, barons and knights, convened in 1295. The first Sunday newspaper, the Sunday Monitor, was published at Baltimore in 1796. BASEBALL RESULTS NEW YORK, June 5 (TP)—The Boston Redsox are closer to Amer ican League leadership today. The Sox jotted down another item in the win column when the Boston team beat the Cleveland Indians, 4 to 3. The league-leading New York Yan kees, meanwhile, were dropping a 16 to 3 landslide to the Chicago White sox. There are still plenty of games separating Boston from the lead, but Tom Yawkee’s boys are confident that the Fourth of July, at the latest, will find them out in front. In other American League games, the St. Louis Browns beat the Wash ington Senators, 6 to 3, and the De troit Tigers hammered the Philadel phia Athletics, 18 to 9. The National League leaders, the New York Giants, lost yesterday to the Chicago Cubs, 8 to 5. The Pitts burgh Pirates beat the Boston Bees, 7to 5; the Brooklyn Dodgers man aged to take the St. Louis Cardinals, 4 to 3, and the Cincinnati Reds wal loped the Phillies, 5 to 3. Sally League The Columbus Red Birds came out of their prolonged slump last night down in the Sally League when they got to the offerings of Jake Levy, the Savannah Indian hurling star to cop the game from the Tribe by the score of 3-2. Nailing Levy for ten hits, the Birds flew high to offset a rally by the Indians in the sixth inning to keep the game on ice. Jacksonville continued their hold on first place with a close 5-4 decision from the Augusta Tigers. Going into thirteen frames, the Tars won the game by a hard single by Rip Dunbar to cop the first game of the series with the felines. The last game of the circuit brought the Macon Peaches together with the Columbia Senators with the final count being 4-2 in favor of the boys from the middle Georgia city. Show ering Perkins with ten hias, the Peaches laid to with a vengeance to finally come on the top.

To throw its whole works into the exhibtion. the team composed of the leading scholastic and “Y” stars of the city will make its debut in the Daffin Park pool. Headed by Sam uel Rhode, Jr., the team will proceed through the regulation exhibit and compulsory ends of the- aquatic pro gram. The diving will play an important part in the meet with Sonny Bragg, Buddy Reese and Burns Atkinson taking the leading roles with their scintillating repertoire of half gain ers, cutaways and regulation dives. Clearly the class of the Southeast, this trip in other performances given this summer, has left the critics gasp ing, with their performance on the low and high boards. The swimming wil be amply taken care of by John McKenna, Wilfred Ellis, and Weil, whose feats in the free style and breast stroke events with the team of the Savannah High School lead to record breaking swims Having an ample cast of other swim mers, the team will give their last exhibition of the week before travel ing to Sea Island where they take on the strong Sea Island club. CLOSE FINISH—Three horses come under the wire together ia race at Detroit. Modesto, on the outside, was winner. HOW THEY STAND AMtKICAN EEAGUE Yesterday’s Results Boston, 4; Cleveland, 3.
