INDIANS OFF FOR COLUMBUS TODAY
TO MEET RED BIRDS IN CONTENT FOr*
UNDISPUTED LEAGUE LEADERSHIP
ART KASKY SLATED TO WORK TONIGHT TO HOLD CO
VETED PLACE: SNOWED UNDER LAST HOME GAME.
The Savannah Indians with base
ball murder in their eyes and ven
geance in their hearts, took the train
out of the city last night bound for
the home grounds of the Columbus
Red Birds. Bowing before the bat
ting onslaughts of the Senator bats
in last night’s game the Indians
seek to keep on top by virtue of a
victory from the Birds. Today’s game
should prove interesting because both
the Indians and Red Birds are tied
for first place, and the battle will de
cide the real leadership of the cir
cuit.
Art Kasky, righthander is slated
for the mound work, and from the
pace that the pitcher has been set
ting among the leading moundsmen
of the league it appears that he will
take his share of the spotlight in the
game today.
Snowed Under 11 to 0
The Indians struck a tartar last
night when they ran against the six
hit hurling of Terhune, the Colum
bia righthand ace, who shut them
out by the overwhelming score of 11-
0. The bats of the Senators worked
overtime on the pitching efforts of
Emil Roy and Jake Levy, as the Sa
vannah moundsmen sought to stop
the flow of runs from the
bats of the Carolinians.
It appeared to be one of those
nights for the Tribe as they tried to
run their winning streak of games
up to five, but the spark which domi
nated their play in the preceding
games appeared to have been extin
guished by Terhune who was cutting
the corners and burning fast ball',
down the center of the plate to thor
oughly buffalo the Indians.
Columbia got off to an early stait
in the very first inning, when Spur
lin and Rex were scored by Larsen
and Bloodworth o nsingles. Getting
another ri'n in the third stanza when
Cummings was scored by Rex. From
then on it was just the case of too

much Senators for the Tribe. The
boys from Capitol Hill pushed across
additional tallies in the fourth, sixth
and seventh innings to run-the score
up to the high figure.
Big Charlie Hilcher was the one
spark plug in the offense of the In
dians which failed to get going. Now
going under the monicker of “Lula
Belle,” the elongated first baseman
packed a punch like the comic strip
notable when he nailed the onion for
a total of three out of four to almost
make a perfect night of the set-to.
Hi-*es Downer, Williams and Horgan
were the only other Indians to get to
first and once there were unable to
be placed in a dangerous scoring

RUSSELL (RED) EVANS—
CHICAGO WHITE SOX
The Chicago White Sox two years
i so pulled a pitching star out of the
Texas leagre. His name was Ken
nedy. Last year they yanked up
John Whitehead, also a star. And
now a third Lone Star State league
moundsman, Russell E. (Red) Evans,
is trying to emulate the deeds of the
other two.
Red is fresh from Oklahoma City,
where he won 24 games while losing
eight last year. He has been shoved
into several games with the Sox and
is pitching a fair brand of ball. He ;
hasn’t started with the sensationa- j
lism of Whitehead who ran up quite a
victory streak last season, but he !
will come through.
Heme Town Sar.dlotter
Red is a home-grown Chicagoan, !
being born in the Windy City in 1908. j
He began playing amateur ball early ;
’nd was a teammate of Bruce Camp- 1
bell, slugging outfielder of the Cleve
land Indians.
Evans turned professional in 1931,
joining Koekuk. Later he went to'
Cecar Rapids. Then it was Spring- j
field, 111., and finally Dubuque. In
1933 he was a free agent. He was
with Oklahoma City in ’34 and ’35.
Standing 5 feet 11 inches and
weighing 160 pounds, Red is right- !
handed, with plenty of curves and j
that much-needed control.

ODDS~ARE AGAINST
LEARNING TO FLY
AVIATOR STATES 25 TO 1
RATIO GOVERNS FLY
ING CHANCES
NEW YORK, July 3 (TP)—A vet
eran pilot and flying instructor pre
sented evidence today to prove that
the odds are 25 to 1 that the average
American cannot learn to fly well
enough to avoid disaster.
The flier is Kenneth Brown Col
lings, who set down his observations
for the American mercury. Collings’
article was aimed at debunking pre
dictions that within a few years all
America will be zooming around the
air in “flivver planes.”
He say a there is an enormous dif
ference between driving an automo
bile and flying a plane. Flying de
mands an instinct for synchronized
control—a thing which aviators call j
"flying adaptability.” In a car a man
has traction on hard ground or pave
ment. Aloft he has nothing but thin
air—and the air is variable. If a flier
is banking a turn and he turns too
steeply he side-slips and falls. It not
steeply enough the plane skids into
a stall and goes down. And landing
a plane requires far more skill than
almost any other operation. Collins
charges that the bureau o f air com
merce is too lax, that it eliminates \
almost nobody at all ant. graduates i
three out of four applicants for li- j
censes.
“The average American.” Ceilings !
concludes, “cannot become an air- j
plane pilot and he should not be al
lowed to try it.”
Thoughtful
“He is very thoughtful of his wife.”
“Yes. Last winter he bought coke
instead of coal so it wouldn’t be so
heavy for her to shovel into the fur
nace.”
“WHAT’S SKEETER DOING TODAY?”
Every day that>s the first question asked in many Savan
nah homes when the Savannah Daily Times makes its daily ap
pearance.
And not only the children but Dad and Mother, too. want to
liiiow—for readers of all ages are to be found among the many
who have taken little Skeeter, new hero of the “Muggs and
Skeeter” comic strip, to heart as their hero.
Look for “Muggs and Skeeter” evrey day in the Savannah
Daily Times and you are certain to become a faithful follower.

Sally League
The Savannah Indians struck a
stumbling block last night in the Sal
ly league when the Columbia Sena
tors nailed them to the tune of 11-0.
Paced by the six-hit performance of
Terhune their star righthander, the
Senators had the Tribe behind the
proverbial eight-ball the entire eve
ning. The Columbus Red Birds moved
into a two-way tie for first place
when they conquered the high and
mighty Jacksonville Tars, 6-4. Two
men, Gruzdis and Orengo of the
Birds both slapped homers Into the
bleachers to feature the heavy stick
work of the Birds.
The last game of the circuit found
the lowly Augusta Tigers defeating
the Macon Peaches, 6-3. Continuing
their drive towards the leadership of
the second half, the Tigers played
heads-up ball the entire route to
knock the Macon Peaches off their
perch. v
