SIGNING OF NEW INFIELDER BOLSTERS INDIANS AS THEY GET AWAY ON EXTENDED TRIP
TRIBESMEN IN
COLUMBUS FOR
ROAD OPENER
Addition of Third Baseman
Kores Puts More Ginger
in Team.
FINAL KICK FOR HENS
COLUMBUS, 0., June 25—Jack Hen
dricks and bis bustling Indians un
loaded here this morning ready to open
their long road trip with a battle with
the Senators today.
The Hooslers showed up with anew
third-sacker, Art Kores. and local fans
are willing to admit that Manager Hen
dricks made a wise move when he ob
tained the former Toledo Hen.
Kores played good ball for Toledo
when that club opposed the Clymers, and
in the estimation of Columbus fans,
If he delivers up to form as an Indian
there's no question but what the Hooslers
will show an Improved defense and a lit
tle more weight on the attack.
Manager Hendricks had dint Rogge
slated for mound duty this afternoon and
the Senators were anticipating a tough
battle if the Hooslers’ curve-ball was
on his stride.
TRIBE GIVES HENS
A FINAL PUNCH
The Indiana handed the Toledo Hens
a farewell kick n Washington park yes
terdav, winning behind the good pitch
ing of Charlie Whitehouse. 6 to 1.
Whitie had a job in the early in
nings locating the plate and fans were
fearful of an ascension, but as the game
grew old the local lefty grew stronger
and he aooa had the visitors eating out
of his hand.
The Hens got only four hits off White
house. while the Hooslers hopped on
Brady's offerings and crashed out nine
safeties, including home runs by Zwiil
inst and Smith.
fcwUUng’B circuit hit went over the
big Parker sign in right field and It
was only the third time during Jack
Hendricks’ time here that a ball was
hit over at that point
Smith's homer was a one-bounder over
the low fence in left field.
The Indians simply showed up the
Hens throughout the game and the fans
left the park satisfied that Indianapol.s
stands an excellent chance of climbing
to the first division in the not far dis
tant future. . , _
Roger Bresnahan, Hen manager, bad a
wild spell yesterday when he saw his
team taking another beating and he
even changed catchers during P 1 8?,;
Catcher Murphy had pulled an Ivory
plav in the sixth and Roger ordered him
out" of the game. The move did not make
a hit with players and fans.
The Indians left the city in the midst
of a great comeback and the fans are
pulling for the team to keep going.
Starting with the Minneapolis senes
here the Tribe won three out of five, took
three oat of three with the Blues, four
out of four with the Senators and in
the Hen series they grabbed three, tied
on* and lost one. It's quite a record
and if the club Is able to reach the .000
mark shortly it will stand an excellent
chance of reaching second place on the
present road trip.
Murphv is a hard-working catcher and
the other Toledo players and even Indi
anapolis lans did not take kindly to
Bresnahan's hasty move in removing the
big fellow while play was in progress.
Such harsh treatment does not belong
In baseball.
A walk to Reilley. a single by Coving
ton and a single by Rehg enabled the
Indians to tie the Hens in the second
inning. Later Covington scored on
Zwilling's hit and the Tribe was ahead
to stay the remainder of the day. Rehg
has hit safely in the last fifteen games.
Local fans are cheering over the In
dians' move in getting Third Baseman
Korea. He is rated a capable associa
tion player and surely will bolster the
infield.
Jack Hendricks and Owner Smith are
hustling to grab another pitcher. The
slabster may be landed within a few
daya.
SAINTS MAT TRY HOOSIEK.
BLUFFTON, Ind.. June 25.—1 t is not
at all unlikely that Cletus Kyle, local
baseball and basketball star, will be giv
en an opportunity within a week or so
to try out for a berth on the St. Paul
league team, which is now at the top of
the American association.
Hargrave, backstop for the St. Paul
team, was in Fort Wayne last Sunday
on a visit and learned of Kyle's past rec
ord. Lack of time prevented him from
making a trip to Bluffton, but he seat
word to Kyle to get in touch with him.
HARI.EY SUCCEEDS TICHE.
CHICAGO, June 25—President Ttar
ney of the Three-I league yesterday

INDIANA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, JUNE 25, 1920.
Coming of Foster's
Giants Gala Event
for A, B. C. Rooters
Local ‘Stars Reported in Top
Form for Double-Header
Sunday.
The coming of Rube Foster’s famous
American Giants team of Chicago to
Washington park Sunday for a double
header with Taylor's A. B. C.'s promises
to prove a gala event for followers of
the Indianapolis negro team.
Foster always had a powerful aggre
gation and his team draws so well in
Chicago that it is seldom that he agrees
to take it on the road for games. There
fore the visit of the Giants to Indian
apolis no doubt will result in a record
breaking crowd at Washington park and
high class baseball scurely will result.
The A. B. C.’s are worthy rivals of
Foster’s nine, and as the local club is
| said to be back in form after recovering
from handicaps brought about by inju
ries, local fans believe the Foster crew
will be stopped in at least one game of
the two Sunday.
Jeffries. Dismukes and Johnson are
in form for the battles and the Giants
will not find it an easy matter to solve
their offerings. The A. B. C.'s have
beaten the Giants several times in past
seasons, and if they display the form
they did early In the season they win
stand an excellent chance of repeating.
Charleston, Clark. B. Taylor, Powell
and other A. B. C. favorites are reported
in good shape and their work In the
field and at bat is expected to be sensa
tional.
The A. B. C.’s now stand third in the
Western Colored league, and if they can
win a majority of games from the Giants
here they will Jump right up in the pen
nant fight.
The first game Sunday will be started
at 2 o'clock in order to give the teams
a belter chance to piny two full games.
• Single contests will be staged Monday,
i Tuesday and Wednesday.
I Rube Foster has a number of the best
1 negro ball players of the country In his
lineup and fans are anxious to see them
I perform against the athletes wearing the
j 1920 A. B. C. colors.
