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.

But be that as it may, who can tell? • • • 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. full sELj A * COVERAGE Vv I trans local ■' radio CPORTS - LEASED central */ V W,RE PRESS M 1 * . 2 f > ’ * INDIANS AT GOLUMBS IN TWO GAMES TODAY | BASEBALL RESULTS NEW YORK, June 13 (TP)—The Chicago Cubs defeated the Boston Bees, 7 to 2, for their tenth consecu tive triumph.

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.

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 SM OQTlffil JttCH • MELLOW avl ' ave you tried this Fine Cream Ale?

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.
