COLUMBIA SENATORS ARRIVE IN TOWN
FOR GAME TONIGHT AT CITY STADIUM;
AGAINST 808 LA MOTTE’S INDIAN TRIBE
LOCAL TOSSERS ELATED AFTER TAKING LAST NIGHT’S
CONTEST ROM TIGERS, 4 TO 3, FOR FOURTH IN ROW.
Fresh after their sweeping of the
series with the Augusta Tigers, the
Savannah Indians will renew their
home game schedule with the Co
lumbia Senators tonight in a game
scheduled for 8:15.
Showing that they have the goods,
the Tribe is set for the invasion of
the highly touted aggregation from
the Capital Hill of South Carolina.
(Bob Harris is slated to pitch for the
Tribe. The big righthander has had
hard luck in his games lately, but
Manager Bobby LaMotte is confident
that he will be able to come through
tonight with a victory.
Trip Tigers Again
The Savannah Indians after get
ting off to a bad start in the open
ings of their game with the Augusta
Tigers last; night, came back with a
vengeance in the fifth stanza to push
across the needed run to put the
game on ice. Playing masterful ball
behind the six hit hurling of Pickens,
the Indians were led at the bat by
the trio of sluggers, Etten, Hires and
Elliott who more than accounted for
the runs scored.
Augusta got away to a good start
when they scored a brace of runs as
the result of Lindley doubling, and
then scoring on a hit by Fleming.
Fleming on the next play stole sec
ond and then came home on a single
by Whitiak. Getting another run in
the next inning, the Tigers appeared
to have the game in the bag as Bat
terson scored on a long hit fly ball
by Hubbell.
Savannah got going in the third in
ning making a pair of runs to pull
up within striking distance of the
Tigers. Hints doubled, scoring on the
next play, as Downer, the new cen
terfielder, got another double. Big
Nick Etten then nailed a single on
the nose, scoring Downer for the last
run of the inning. Getting another
run in the fourth to tie the score,
the Indians moved into the eventful
fifth.
With two away, EtUn slapped a
dcuoie and then scored on a double
RACING DRIVERS ‘TUNING’ MOUNTS
SAVANNAH SPEED DEMONS HAVE EYES TURNED TO
WARD JACKSONVILLE BEACH TRIALS SATURDAY.
The fall-ground track is being visit
ed every day by the trio of speed
sters, Bubber Reardon, Richard and
iL’ob Jenkins as they tune their fast
specials preliminary to the auto races
to be held on the Jacksonville Beach
Saturday. All the cars have been
taken down and gone over thorough
ly as the boys seek to break into the
winning column for the first time of
the summer season.
It is believed that Bob Jenkins in
his Miller Special will prove the sen
sation of the races. Fresh from a
triumphant winter season on the dirt
tracks, the curly haired speedster has
been pointing for the beach tracks
for the last three months, getting in
shape for the long and areous grlends.
Having had hard luck last year in the
majority of his races because of h!s
inexperience on the beaches, Bob is
hoping to duplicate his victories
•hewn on the dirt track courses.
Richard Jenk ns is also driving a
MiUer which has had a fair amount
of success for the past season. In
every major race that the younger
Jenkins brother has participated In,
the car has either thrown a rod or
the oil pressure has dropped to the
extent of roclng the young daredevil
to withdraw from the events. If prac-

Representing Tulane university, Ernie Sutter was a favorite in the
national intercollegiate tennis championship at Northwestern uni
versity, Chicago. Ernie, whose brother is Cliff Sutter, Davis cupper

by Elliott to push the winning run
across the platter. This concluded the
scoring for both teams for the night,
and tight baseball was the order of
the evening from that time on. El

showed that he had the goods when
he caught a slow drop to his liking
and put it into deep center to score
be bulky Etten. One of the few vet

with the Indians, the leftfielder has
shown that he can come trough.

Baseball Results
NEW YORK, July 1' (TP) .—The
New York Yankees are I enjoying a
steadily lengthening lead over other
American league teams today.
The Yanks increased their margin
yesterday when they won a double
header from the Boston Red Sox 10
to 5 and 6 to 3. The two games
were the only battles staged in the
league, rain and wet grounds forcing
the postponement of other games.
In the National league, the St.
Louis Cardinals moved out in front
with a twin-bill victory over the Pitts
burgh Pirates. The Cards won the
first game, 2 to 1, and took the night
cap, 4 to 3. The Boston Bees down
e dthe New York Giants, 7 to 6. Wet
grounds spoiled the scheduled game
between the Brooklyn Dodgers and
the Phillies. Other National League
teams were not scheduled.
The Savanah Indians made it
three straight over the Augusta Tig
ers yesterday when they copped the
final game of the series 4-3. Show
ing a new type drive which has been
pushing them along since the begin
ning of the second half, the Tribe
played heads up ball to gain a tie
for second place honors with the
Jacksonville Tars. The Columbia
Senators lost a thriller to the Jack
sonville Tars when they dropped a
7-5 decision. Featured by the hurling
of Goat Walker for the Floridians,
the game was well played throughout
with the sluggers for both sides com
ing in for their share of the spot
light. The Columbus Red Birds were
licked for the first time during the
second half when the Macon Peaches
"canned" them by the score of 6-3.
Starting an avalanche of runs in the
sixth, the Peaches moved into a lead
that was never threatened.

COOKE COMES BACK
REIBER PAYS OFF
VIOLA DARNS SOCKS
By BILL BRAUCHER
Central Press Sports Editor
FOUR YEARS ago Dutsy Cooke,
substituting for Earl Combs in center
field for the Yankees, fell and broke
a leg . . . they didn’t shoot him, but
sent him to Newark instead . . the
same Dusty Cooke, now playing right
field for the Red Sox is the talk of
the league ... and a pretty certain
bet for that position on the All-Star
American league team .. . another
Swepsonville, N. C., boy makes good!
The Tigers are beginning to cash
in on young Frank Reiber catcher,
kept mostly in the bull pen since the
days when Bucky Harris managed
the team . . . Frankie’s chief weakness
has been a tendency to throw wild to
bases . . his arm freezing up in the
tight spots . . . his experience as bat
tery mate for Schoolby Rowe in the
Texas league is proving valuable to
him now that Mickey Cochrane has
started to fall apart.
Mrs. Jimmy Thomson, whose hus
band is one of the longest drivers in
golf, is the former Viola Dana of the
films . . . and she takes her knitting
along to the golf tournaments . . .
while Jimmy plays, Viola earns his
socks . . Roy Parmelee of the Card
inals has given up tobacco and cof
fee . . . and says that’s the reason
he’s a better pitcher this year . . .
Grover Alexander was a great pitcher
for 20 years, and he used not only
tobacco and coffee, but certain other
stimulants of a stirring nature.
It develops that Brevity, hailed as
superhorse before the Kentucky
Derby, is suffering from a filled lea.
and must quit racing . ... in accord
ance with our custom of printing one
vicious pun annually, we are going
to say that Brevity like the sports
writers who picked him to win the
Derby went out on a limb . . . There
are only 17-players in the American
league who were regulars back in
1925 they are Goose Goslin, Ossie
Bluege (bench), Al Simmons, Bing
Miller, Charley Ruffing, Ted Lyons.
Luke Sewell, Charley Gehringer.
Heinie Manush, Earl Whitehill, Leu
Gehrig. Jimmy Dykes Charley Ber
ry Mickey Cochrane,' Lefty Grove.
Firpo Marberry and Rube Walberg.
Kamm’s Team Winning
Willie Kamm, third baseman dis
missed last year in a rumpus with
Walter Johnson, then manager of the
Indians, is doin gvery well as a man
agor himself ... it looks like a pen
nant for Willie's Missions team in
the Pacific Coast league . . Kamm has
a fine third baseman in the person of
Eddie Jcost, a guy who is sure to make
the majors before long.

WILL MISS HOLST
SAVANNAH MERMEN FACE
SEA ISLAND RIVALS
MINUS ACE
The loss of the services of the
highly touted J. B. Holst to the Sa
vannah swimming team, has placed
the locals in the not-to-be-desired role
of underdogs for the meet slated for
Sunday in the Casino pool against
the Sea Island aggregation. It is
hoped that Bums Atkinson, Buddy
Reese and Sonny Bragg will be able
to come through agaLjst the South
eastern diving champion. Tom Pow
ell who will handle the reins for the
Islanders.
Richard Miller, who has just ar
rived from Clemson college, appears
to be shape for the 100 yard back
stroke events. Hoping to resume the
killing pace with which he swept all
the major swims of the southeast for
the past three years, the elongated
star, is tuning up for the race against
Atkinson, who raced for the Univer
sity of Georgia the past season.
Wilfred Ellis, Luke Bowyer, Frank
Durken Gene Powell and Sammy
Rhode are in shape for the varied
slate of free style events, and with
the exception of the 100-yard event
which will be a toss-up, Savannah is
sure to have certain success in the
other trials. The breast events will
be hurdled in form by the duo of
stars, John McKenna and Doug
Ricards. Teammates on last year’s
Savanah High team, this pair of
swimmers, is expected to more than
take the measure of their opponents
from the island resort.
The meet is slated for 3 o’clock,
with the relay being the first event
of the day. The free stylers will then
swing into action followed in turn by
diving, breast and backstroke events.
A large crowd of swimming partisans
of the city will make the trip, which
will be the first of the season for the
local aquatic team.
The loudest noise ever heard in the
