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.

This concluded the scoring for both teams for the night, and tight baseball was the order of the evening from that time on.

The last member of the trio finds Bubbcr Reardon behind the wheel of Jack Donkar’s Riley Special. A com parative newcomer to the game, Rear don has already broken into the head lines with his sensational driving on the major beaches o* the South. The diminutive speed star likes to drive with h:s foot on the bottom, and his past record, even for the short time that he has been burning the tracks, has boasted a enviable record. A large group of Savannahians are expected to make the trip in order to see the local stars in their first near home race for the past six months.

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.

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.

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 . . .

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 world is said to have been caused by the volcanic explosion of the island of Krakatoa.
