CITY SANDLOT TITLE HOLDERS GET SET FOR BIG CONTEST WITH STAR NINE FROM KENTUCKY
AMATEUR BALL
LEADERS MEET
HERESATURDAY
Louisville Champs Coming for
National Play With Pre
miers at Tribe Park.
LOCAL OUTFIT STRONG
For the first time in the history of the
National Baseball federation a national
amateur championship game will be
played on ?.n Indianapolis diamond
Saturday afternoon, when the Premier
Motors. champions of'the I. A. B. A.,
meet the Kentucky & Indiana Terminal
nine, Louisville eityi champs, at Wash
ington park in the fifist round of the 1920
series. '
The Terminals were also the 1919
champions of Louisville. The club is
composed of veteran ball tossers and
they are determined to make the In
dianapolis title bearers step same to
pass them in the Washington park battle.
They have played through the season
in the Falls City division of the Louis
ville Industrial loop with a record of
fourteen victories and no defeats and
lost their only game of live season lu the
plavotl for the championship of the city
with the Southern Lights. They copped
the last game of this series. 1 to 0, in
fifteen innings
SCHEDULED TO
ARRIVE FRIDAY.
The Louisville team will arrive in Indi
anapolis Friday noon and will hold a
light practice on the Indian ball ground
during the afternoon, so as to acquaint
themselves with the iay of the land. The
Premiers v.iil also have the benefit of
practice on the Washington street lot one
afternoon this week.
The Premiers have a record far the
season that is every bit as attractive as
that of the Louisville champions. They
have played through their Motor league
schedule with but two defeats, and
easily defeated the Morris Street Meth
odists In the final game of the title series.
As far as individual stars are con
cerned, it is doubtful if the southerners
have anything on the Indianapolis club,
which is composed of players who have
been listed with the best in Indiana for
the past few years. Elmer Brown,
former Brooklyn hurler. probably will be
on the hill for the Premiers, with Earl
Schaefer behind the piate. Behind this
combination will be the following lineup:
Harry Hansen, first base: “Bed” Stein
metz,' second base; Harry Barnhart,
short; Charlie Schaefer, third base:
Oeorge Broughton, left field: Capt.
Johnny G.aalema, center field, and Doily
Gray, right field. Adams and Bedman
will be ready to relieve Brown of his
mound duties if he shows the least signs
of weakness.
The Premier are heavy clubbers, the
weakest hitter for the season being Stein- i
metz. who averaged .243, and the strong
est being Gray, who clouted the pill for
a .437 average.
B. Walter Jarvis, president of the
I. A. B. A., is preparing a grand we!-’
come for the visitors. Before the game
Saturday afternoon both teams and the
officers of the Indianapolis. Louisville
and National Amateur associations will
parade through the downtown district.
Tickets for the game have been placed
on sale at ail local sporting goods stores. |
The price of admiss.on will 50 cents, and
it 1b believed that every fan who has
followed the aui-tenr games during the
season will be willing enough to “kick
through - ’ for the big game.

Jack Dempsey is still the fighting ma
chine with the man-killing punch that
he was when he won the title from Wil
lard in July, 1919. He showed that when
he dropped Billy Miske in the third
|round at Benton Harbor Labor day.
Miske- —relied the most formidable
; contender—never had a chance. A right
cross to chin did the business after
Dempsey had nearly caved Miske’s body
in in the second round and had dropped
him earlier in the third with a right to
the jaw. Miske had stayed the limit with
Jack in previous bouts.

the Terre Haute Cycle club dashed across
tbe tape first, less than a wheel's length
ahead of Alfred Casebvr of Indianapolis,
In one minute and twelve seconds. Rene
Vanllorn of Mishawaka copped third

Wagner again showed bis superiority
as a sprint rider, when he copped tbe
mile state title His time for this dis
tance was two minutes and forty-five sec
onds. Alfred Caseber followed Wagner
home for tbe second time in this race,
with Chsrlle Brockalaare of Mishawaka
a close third.
Caseber proved his endurance in a long
grind when he rode around Wagner on
the home stretch to win the state honors

being thick with dust, and. considering
this, the riders made good time In all
cve-'ts.
Charles E. Wehr, Indiana representative
of the National Cycling association, and
director of the races, defeated E. C. Cone

BIG LEAGUERS
IN CITY WHEN
j TEAM RETURNS
After Trip to Louisville and
Toledo Indians Will Meet
Washington Here.
TWIN BILL IS DIVIDED
When Jack Hendricks’ Indians return
from the short road trip, which they
started at Louisville today, they will
tangle with a big league club at Wash
ington park.
The Washington American league club
will meet the Hooslers in an exhibition
game here Sept. 15, and following that
the Indiana will begin the season’s wind
up games, meeting the western A. A.
clubs in order on the home lot.
The trip starting in Coloneltown to
day will keep the Tribesmen busy for
two series, one at Louisville tfnd one at
Toledo.
When the Washington team makes its
appearance here Walter Johnson, famous
speed hurler. will pitch a few inning*
against the Hooslers. Other stars com
ing with Clark Griffith’s club are Sam
Rice, leading base-stealer of the John
son circuit; First Baseman Judge. Out
fielder Ror.h, Frank Brower, the $15,000
home-run hitter purchased from the In
ternational league by Griffith, and the
one and only Nick Altrock, baseball'*
greatest comedian.
Nick Is o funny that one glimpse of
him and tbe fans start laughing. During
his antics on the coaching line Nick
will stage an individual wrestling match
and also stage a boxing bout all by his
lonesome.
Nick keeps up with current event and
there's no question but that he'll be
able to give a laughable copy of the
Dempsev-Miake bout when ho comes here.
Altrock knock* himself out in bis boxing
stunt and he'll surely demonstrate how
Billy Miake took the count at Benton
Harbor.
The final double-header with the Toledo
Hens yesterday went fifty-fifty, the vis
itors taking the opening scrap, 5 to 4.
and the Indians the windup, 4 to 8.
Rogge was given half-hearted support In
the first game, although It vai the hit
ting of Pitcher Brady that won the con
test for the Hens
Brady got a fluke homer in the second
inning with the bases populated, the ball
rolling to the left field fence and taking
a surprise hop over. But the Indians
managed to catch up with that count
by the eighth inning, but in the ninth
Brady got a pinch single that sent in
the winning run. The game practically
was lost In the Tribe outfield on ground
balls that were handled poorly.
In the second game Petty and Gaw
both got tnrn* on the mound, the latter
relieving Jeaa In the eighth after the
Hen* had scored three times in the
seventh. Two errors helped the visitors
In the seventh, but Petty also showed
signs of weakening and for that rea
son Hendricks seDt Gaw In.
