Indians Take Third Straight From Tars
JES’ ROLLIN’ ALONG!
(With Sports Observer)
Next week brings about the schedul
ed annihilation of the beetle browed
Max Bohmeling by the blasting two
fisted attack at the ebony hued Joe
Louis. This is a conceded fact, and
the only thing that remains is for
Louis to step toto the ring and start
work The only question seems to
be is how long will the German last?
In your observer’* eyes, Max will stay
until the sixth round when he will
have his “water cut off”, by the
smooth moving steamroller in the
nature of Louis. Everything points
to a quiet evening for the ringsiders.
Os course there is the usual bally
hoo accompanying the fight, of what
Schmeling la going to do and what
his plan of action is going to be, but
it all bolls down to this, that he is
going out in the same fashion the
rest of she hapless victims of the
brown fury’.
Methinks that Jim Braddock with
his stolid, plugging manner of battle
will stand a much better chance with
Louis than any of the other heavy
weights Which grace the world’s fistic
horizon at the present time. This
relatlvelj’ obscure boxer, up to the
Mme he stepped into the ring with
Ihe vociferous Maxie Baer, certain
ly had a right to be awed by the
presence of the heavy clouting Maxie,
who had the critics and sportwriters
agog with what he could do with an
opponent. But he, stepped in and
went to work in a methodical fashion
and hammered out a licking to the
boxing clown. If Baer couldn’t scare

Johnny Harris’ Catch
Talking to Johnny Harris the other
day and he took me back into his
icebox and there was a string of the
prettiest perch and redbreast that
I have seen in many a day. 67 in
number and he caught them in Jones
Lake. It looks like the good old days
when you could go out in the flat
bottomed punt and nab a few pounds
of the finny tribe are back again.
Nothing is better than to go out in
the late afternoon and cast a few
times, bringing up a “mess” of red
breast about the size of your hand,
for a nice supper with a few pieces
of com bread thrown in for good
measure -’t can’t beat it!
* ♦ *
Glad that Trank Stevenson hasrr.’t
closed the Hotel General Oglethorpe
course yet, because it is a nice course
to play and what I mean, it is really
tricky, there is nothing like it in the
county, no matter where you go. The
fairways are narrow and it takes a
shotster to make the grade. Frank
hasn’t much “trade” on it in the
weekdays but somehow he makes the
grade and after all, that is the main
thing, isn’t it, Frank?

Tuckey is back! That in a few
words sums up one of the colorful
spots in Savannah’s club. Laid up
with a stomach ailment for the last
week, the return of the talkative back
i stop for the Indians played his first
I game since his return in Friday
| night’s game. Showing his “stuff”
in other games, Tuckey is hoping to
I have his eye on the ball soon in
order to recoup his battling losses.
Always a crowd-pleaser the red haired
stick of dynamite looks natural back
in the catcher’s box.

HIGH JUMP RECORD
BROKEN IN MIDWEST
CHICAGO, June 13 (TP)—Miss
Annette Rogers of Chicago broke the
Central A. A. U. high jump record
for women today in the women’s track
and field meet in Chicago.
Annette cleared the bar at 5 feet,
two and a quarter inches. Since
neither the famous Babe Didrickson
nor the present world champion, Jean
Shirley, are trying for places on the
Olympic team, Miss Rogers’ perfor
mance probably assures her of a
place on the American Olympics
team.

INDIANS LEAVE
FOR HOME NEST
OF RED BIRDS
BOBBY LAMOTTE'S RED
SKINS HOPE TO HOLD
WIN STREAK INTACT
The Savannah Indians left last
night for the home nest of the Co
lumbus Red (Birds in a double-header
to be played today. Leaving there to
morrow night, the Indians will come
back here for the renewal of their
home series with the Columbia Sena
tors with a four-game clash as the
feature. Such a trip will tax the
strength of the Tribe, but their three
straight victory run over the highly
touted Jacksonville Tars, has served
as a build-up to the second half of
the season race.
Emil Roy will pitch the first game
for the Indians with Calvin Lowe or
Bill Gould taking the reins for the
mound work in the night cap. Going
to the Bird’s diamond with the hopes
of dishing out the same meal to the
middle Georgia aggregation as was
handed to the Tars, the Indian’s foray
into the hostile territory will be
watched with interest by the league
at large. The Jacksonville team is
now in second place due to their
smashing reversal by the Savan
nahians, and Bobby LaMotte is seek
ing his fourth straight at the expense
of the Red Birds.

Tribe’s Thrilling Rally
I n Last Stanza To Win 6-5
Puts Fans On Their Toes
808 HARRIS TIGHTENS UP
AFTER BAD START AND
FINISHES IN RARE FORM.
ELLIOT’S DRIVE STARTS
FIREWORKS.
Accompanied to the tune of the
“Bottle Brigade” in the last half of
the ninth inning, the Savannah In
dians yesterday made it three straight
over the highly touted Jacksonville
Tars. 6-5. Elliott further endeared his
name to the heart’s of the Savannah
baseball fans when with three men
on, he rapped a line drive between
first and second to score the runs
to win the game.
In the first half of the ninth in
ning, everything pointed to a near
riot when Leitz slapped a homer,
which Umpire-in-chief Hammond
called fair to the accompaniment of
boos and cat calls from the bleach
ers and extensive arguing on the part
of Bobby LaMotte of the Indians with
the entire r £ribe taking part. Whether
the ball was foul or not, certainly did
not affect the riding of the luckless
umpire who made the decision. Or
der was finally restored and the
game continued with the Indians
making their bid for Victory in their
half of the stanza and coming out on
top.
Harris in Rare Form
Bob Harris, the Tribe hurling ace,
although hit by a drive in the early
part of the game, bore down in the
pinches to save the day for the In
dians, following eight hits for the
route, the elongated righthander got
away to a bad start, but recovered
enough to settle down and pull the
fab out of the fire. Not being con
tent with hurling a fine game Harris
went out and slapped the ball for
three safeties to make his victory
complete.
The Tars got the ball rolling in
their half of the second when they
scored two runs as results of base

hits by Dunbar and Leitz who came
in on pop flys by Maxwell and Early
to score their tallies. • Again getting
another run in the third when Walk
er of hurling fame nailed one on
the nose, which headed for the right
field bleachers for the third run of
the Floridians. Again scoring in the
fourth as a result of a single by Early
scoring Dunbar, the Tars coasted the
rest of the route with but one more
run being put in their column.
The fireworks started in the fifth
stanza for the Indians when Etten
scored Moore and Bennett who had
gotten on bases as results of two
smashing singles through short. Scor
ing again in the next frame with two
more tallies as a result of Tuckey
and Harris scoring Hilcher and Col
burn, the Tribe tied up the ball game.
Leitz Gets Homer ’
Going scoreless until the first half
of the ninth when the Tars tallied
as a result of the home run by Leitz,
the game appeared to be sewed up
for the Tars, until the Indians cam<
to bat in their half of the ninth
Bennett, first man up walked, goinj
to second when Lunak laid a bun 1
down and beat it out. Etten, th
heavy hitting gardener, then walked
loading the bases. The moment wa
tense as the leftfielder for the Trib
eyed the lanky Braun who had r<
placed Lyle on the mound.
Finally Elliott got one to his lik
ing and laid down a single that scored
two men, and the ball game was his
tory. McKinney who had started th<
route for the Jacksonville aggrega
tion, was relieved by Lyle, who in
turn was relieved by Braun to share
the mound duties so rthe Tars.
