INDIANS FOLLOW “JOLLY” TARS TO JACKSONVILLE WHERE FEUD WILL BE RENEWED TONIGHT HOME STAND GAME LAST NIGHT A HUMMER WITH TRIBE BEIMC GOATS IN ONE INNING AND LOSING 5 TO 2. Leaving this morning for the home diamond of the Jacksonville Tars, the Savannah Indians hope to get back the game lost last night to the Floridians. Going down with the knowledge that the Jacksonville team and rooters are laying for them with the proverbal hoots and boos, the In dians will take the field, hoping to nail the Tars on the rebound and push them out of first place. With Art Kasky most likely being the choice for today’s pitching chores, the Indians stand a good chance of coming ov.t on top. Have Bad Inning The Savannah Indians last night were the goats of one bad inning and lost the game with the Jacksonville Tars 5-2. Replete with varied thrills ranging from Early, the Tar catcher being knocked out by a collision, to Jake Levy being put out of the game for arguing with the “umps,” the set-to was packed with action from start to finish. Levy, the rotound hurler for the Indians pitched masterful ball throughout the game until replaced by Roy. The fourth Inning however, proved to be a nightmare for the veteran pitcher, for three runs were pushed across the platter as Bonner wh had singled came home on a hit by Early. Maxwell then got a hit to right field, and Etten who was slow in getting the ball off, allowed Early and Dunbar to score. Other than ths Inning the game was tight throughout, with Lyle, the Tar hurl er being given heads-up support by the Jacksonville aggregation. The Indians got an early start in the third stanza when Rusty Tuckey caught one on the nose and lifted it into the bleachers for the circuit clout. But the Floridians soon pass ed the Indians in the fateful fourth. Getting another run in the sixth, the Tribe promised an attack which fizzled, with but one tally coming across.

Other than two more runs being added to the column of the Tars in the eighth inning, the game was over, with the Indians be ing the losers for the game. Eventful Night Last night was an eventful night for the local fans when they were augmented in size by the addition of many people from the home town of Jake Hines, who was presented with a watch at the beginning of the eighth inning. Really an impressive scene as the chunky third sacker accepted the gift, he filled his role to perfection as he led the batter’s pa rade for the Tribe when he got two out of four for a .500 average.

Baseball Results NEW YORK, June 19 (TP)—The St. Louis Cardinals found their backs dangerously close to the well-known wall today. Their 4 to 0 defeat by the Boston Bees yesterday cut deep into the margin bj' which they hold leadership of the National league. The Chicago Cubs, hot on the trail of the Cards, were idle yesterday when rain fell in Philadelphia. Al though they didn't touch a bat, the Cubs moved several points nearer the Cards and will stand a good chance to overtake the St. Louis team if they can down the Brooklyn Dodgers to day. The Boston-St. Louis game was the only one played in the National league yesterday, rain cancelling all the oth er games. In the American league, the New York Yankees beat the Cleveland Indians, 6 to 5; the Chi cago White Sox took over the Boston Red Sox, 1 to 0; the St. Louis Browns defeated the Philadelphia Athletics. 7 to 2, and the Washington Senators won a 12 to 4 verdict over the De troit Tigers. Sally League Columbus dropped further behind the league leading Jacksonville Tars yesterday when they dropped a slug fest to the Augusta Tigers, 12-8. Hol land of the Tigers wrote his name <jf the annals of the Sally league rec ords when he nailed two home runs in te set-to. Now a full game behind the Tars, the Red Birds are doing some mighty fine scrambling these days to try and regain their league leadership. Jacksonville took vengeance for prior lickings last night in their game ab Savannah with the Indians. Winning the set-to 5-2, the Tars fi nally got to Jake Levy for three runs in the fourth stanza to more than win the game. Early the Tar star catcher was hurt in a collision and was removed from the game. The last game of the circuit brought together the Macon Peaches and the Columbia Senators with the Peaches taking the measure of the Senators, 5-0 behind the pitching of Art Evans.

Then, ask yourself; “How about my Eyes—The Tools of Vision ?” Are they dull because they need proper I glasses? Are they dull because the glasses yon have changing? Are they dull because the lenses you are wearing are not the very best? Give yourself a square deal. Be sure your Eyes are at their very best.

Louis is still a one-to-five favorite to beat the German. The one-day postponement had little effect on the odds. The Detroit negro is a one-to two favorite for a knockout, and so called “smart money” says it will be the third or fourth round. Both fighters are on edge. Louis still maintains his indifferent air, and Schmeling is outwardly as social as ever. The fight promoters say Louis and Schmeling are in the pink and will “come out fighting” when the first bell sounds for them about 10 o'clock (E. D. T.) tonight.
