Indians And Senators To Lock Horns Again At Stadium Tonight ■ •W7 W CLOSE VICTORY COLUMBIA TEAM LAST NIGHT FAILS Td DAUNT SPIRIT OF LAMOTTE’S TRIBE; J KASKY MAY HURL THIS EVENING. Losing a hard fought battle, last night has proven to be no setback to the spirits of the Savannah In diana who tonight will again go against the Columbia Senators in a game to start at 8:15. With the likely selection for mound work being Art Kasky, Manager Bobby LaMotte will further the cause of a smooth work ing combination, in order to give the other teams a fight in the second half of the schedule. The addition of Linville, Williams and Pickens on the field last night, served notice on the leaders of the loop, that the Indians are set for a battle with no holds barred and the sky the limit. No team knows this better than the Jacksonville Tars who saw their league lead wiped out by the Indians, and sent on the skids. The Senators last night presented the Indians with a bouncing 4-3 deci sion. Packed full of thrills, the In dians tried hard to overcome an early lead, but were unable to pull the fat out of the fire. Getting away to a three-run lead in the first stanza, the Senators, backed up with brilliant fielding, held on to the slim margin of victory behind the nine-hit hurling of Harkrader. Loading the bases with McQuaig, Mirtin and Gulian in one, two, three o der, the Senator’s shortstop, Kane, trove a hard ball down the third base line, scoring McQuaig and Mar tin, with Gulian coming home on the next play on a single by Spur lin. The Columbia aggregation again scored in the next stanza when Harkrader scored on a infield play by McQuaig. This completed the scor ing for the Senators for the night with the Indians trying desperate!” to tie the score in the fourth and fifth stanzas. The fourth provided the fireworks for the locals when “Big Charlie” Hllcher drove a homer into the left fk’.d stands scoring Williams ahead o' him for the two tallies. The fifth i ining started well for the Tribe, but soon fizzled short of the one run, the locals needed to cop the game. Pickens and Moore led off with angles, and the new righthander, came home on a crashing drive by Linville. Both teams had to be content with these runs, with the game finishing in the same order as the final stanza was played. Pickens, ( the new hurler for the Indians was stingy at times with him allocating 11 safeties to the betters of the Senators. Except for the bad first inning which all three ru is were unearned, the slim young si °r was never in trouble and pitched t'?ht ball for the remainder of the distance. Charlie Hilcher, the first sacker for the Tribe, got is share of the glory when he got two out of four to take the batting spotlight from ,A Hl 1 115 A > V\A— Iv «tu?h BM*® oF BEER .. kUX oT'' v ' Kfei.vlVN ££-" g—— W| WSHgOwK feJfe ■ iV I B 4 YOU be the Judge i g * y° ur ° wn &ta4 aste decide 'WMbs.

The Cardinals meet the Boston Bees, while the Pittsburgh Pirates journey to Brooklyn to meet the Dodgers. The New York Giants play host to the, Cincinnati Reds at th» Polo grounds. In the American league, the New York Yankees are at Cleveland to fight to keep their league lead. The Boston Red Sox will meet the Chi cago White Sox in the Windy fifty and the Philadelphia Athletics meet the St. Louis Browns at St. Louis. The Washington Senators journey to Detroit to try their luck against the Tigers. No games were scheduled in either league yestrday. The Jacksonville Tars broke back into the winning streak again, after somewhat of a prolonged lay off, when they took the luckless Augusta Tigers for the proverbial ride 15-1. Scoring at will, and falling upon the work of two Tiger pitchers, the Jack sonville aggregation played tight base ball behind the five-hit performance of Bazner to run up the amazing to tal of tallies. Perhaps the most thrilling game of the circuit was in Columbus where the Red Birds, by a hard fought rally in the latter stages of the game, won over the Ma con Peaches, 10-9, to hold their slim lead of league leadership over the Tars. Starting in their half of the ninth, the Birds overcame a two-run lead to win behind the hitting of Judd, their stellar hurler who relieved Lynn. The last game of the loop found the Columbia Senators taking a 4-3 decision from the Savannah In dians in a game featured by the hurling prowess of the new right hander for the Tribe. Morris Pickens.

Come Early and Be Assured a Comfortable Seat (White Persons Only) LOUIS-SCHMELING BATTLE EXPECTED BREAK RECORD MILLION - DOLLAR GATE MADE BY TUNNEY-DEMP SEY MAY FALL By BILL BR AU CHER Central Press Sports Editor NEW YORK, June 16.—Nine years after the million-dollar prize fight gate faded with the last Tunney- Dempsey battle at Soldier Field. Chi cago, it flowers again in New York, June 18, when a Negro boy from Alabama meets a German ex-cham pion in 15 rounds at Yankee stadium. The faces are new but the idea is the same. The crowd is paying its dollars expecting to see a savage show such as Dempsey enacted at Toledo against Willard, and at the Polo grounds against Firpo. Joe Louis is the Dempsey now, with the killer punch. Max Schmeling, the German, is an ex-champion, trying to accomplish a task at which many men have failed, to fight his way back up the hard road to the top. The new Tex Rickard is Mike Ja cobs, who learned his crowds as a ticket speculator on the sidewalks of New York. What There Is to See The fight is unique in the annals of the ring. There is no title at stake but the show has all the essentials of a championship. In the back ground now is Jimmy Braddock, story-book champion of last year, who waits eagerly to meet the win ner. Never has a non title fight been staged with the tremendous ap peal of this contest between a negro and a white man. To most of the close followers of fights, the outcome is a foregone con clusion, yet the crowd is coming to see it through. Louis is favorite at almost prohibitive odds, and nine out of ten believe he will win by a knockout. Yet the thousands want to see it, and through the country millions will listen at the radio. There is no championship at stake, but the punch of a future champion—Joe Louis—is what the whole country wants to see, to hear about, to read about, to discuss. Max Schmeling is a man cast in the role of guinea pig about to enter a fistic laboratory for a big experiment in I ..... . . . ... fan ? • "in-;- ~ BEARS ROW—University of California oarsmen drill on Hudson river at Poughkeepsie for regatta, June 22.

The dark-browed German, with a reputation for being able to take it. and to deal out a powerful punch with his own right hand, is the most formidable opponent the Brown Bomber has encountered in’ his swift rise to the top. The formula of the Bombers fistic ability will have to be rewriteen by the chroniclers of this engagement. Can He Take It? Will Lovis be the same super puncher he proved to be against Baer and Camera? Or will he find his way to victory only after a terrific strug- j gle with the hard-jawed German? Will those short right hand punches of Schmelings throw the Negro off balance, and give the answer to the question most often asked, “Can Joe Louis take it?” Not since Jack Johnson was jOhww ' /■KSSR* >qßßrs aHHIhs IwPBMpPw ■bJlct wmnW» ■B t WOMKWrW'jB' ■ 111 ••X^X^X’X’XvXvXvXv’vXvXsvX^/S l .' >• !Z*i* XZ Z * Z-* AV ’*’*—*-*—»«*'* ** X *-*-*-*-‘-**‘-*^*f ■u • • *-»►#, •//aSA UO£ LOUIS NATIONAL LEAGUE Yesterday’s Results Open date Team W L Pct.
