in town today for their first 1922 visit
and Saint fans were anxious to see what
Jack Hendricks has under his managerial
wing this season. Much has been heard

hero were Interested in the playing of the
few new men in the Tribe line-up, main
ly of Krueger, the hard hitting
catcher, yuung Purcell in the outfield

| May 3.—Eddie (Kidi
tclaek, welterwelgntYihamplon of Western
-New York, is one of the few Eastern box
ers who has escaped being knocked out.
Even the champfc>ns of all the different
classes, from Dempsey to Kilbane, have
had referees count "ten" over them, but
this Buffalo contender has yet to tkae
the fatal count.
Black has placed himself under the
management of Biddy Bishop of this
city and the latter will enter into the
work at once of getting Black into a
match for the welter title. Black was
formerly handled by Aliie Smith of
Buffalo, who died a few months ago.
Black, out of respect for his former man
ager, laid off from ring work for three
months. His first contest under Bishop’s
management was with Bobby Lee at In
dianapolis.

guarantee weight and appearance for
Black to box any man in the ring at

JACK RUSHES BACK TO FARIS.
BERLIN. May 3.—Jack Dempsey's
comment on Berlin Tuesday just before
he left for Paris was: “It’s a nice place,
but me for Los Angeles." He cut short

urgent business in Paris, and after its
transaction he expected to return to the
United States at once.
The mayor of the German capital In
terrupted an official discussion of greater
Berlin's deficit long enough to receive
Dempsey for a short greeting. The fight
er's last hours in Berlin were devoted to
breaking away from dog fanciers and bell
boys who clamored for autographed
snapshots that had been taken by ama
teur photographers.

OPTIMISTS TO HAVE NINE.
A. G. Feeney has been named as man
ager of the new baseball team to be or
ganized by the Optimists Club. The di
rectors also have decided to stage a golf
tournament this year, an'd Ralph Elton
and W. J. Pray have been pointed as a
committee of arrangements for the event.
CURLY TOM IN MONROE SEAT
Tom Alley, Indianapolis boy, will team
with Wilbur D’Alene and a driver yet to
be named in driving the three Monroes
entered in the International 500-mile race
to be held at the Indianapolis Motor
Speedway, Tuesday, May 30.
Alley is ever an interesting personage
about the track, but this year is unusual
in that he has signed for a ear a month
before a race. He usually comes to the
track a day or two before the race, gets
a mount and goes on into the race. Last
year he was chosen to drive an hour be
fore the big event. And he had his
Frontenac in second and third places
consistently until fire put him out with
the race well along.
It's easy to tel! when Alley Is on the
track. He never wears any covering for
a wealth of curly hair. Whenever any
of the visitors ask the track haugers-on
who Alley is, they are usually answered,
“Our walking hair tonic advertisement."
Ail of which gets a laugh from Alley,
who is good natured and full of wit.
Aliev will arrive in a few days to get
his Monroe ready for the long drive.

Kilbane-Martin Go
Now Looms Up as
Next Feather Bout
If Champion Keeps Promise,
Pepper Will Get Chance at
Johnny’s Title.
BY DAVIS J. WALSH.
NEW Y'ORK, May 3.—“lf you have any
thing to say, John Patrick Kilbane,
speak now, or forever hold your peace.”
They are supposed to have your word
of mouth promise, John to meet the win
ner of the Pepper Martin-Babe Herman
scrap in a featherweight champion bout,
and strange as It may seem, there was a
winner and a very convincing one at
that.
He Is Vincent (Pepper) Martin of Brook
lyn, who lulled the Babe to sleep with a
left to the jaw In the first round at
Madison Square Garden last night.
No fluke about that punch, John. Tho
peppery one had first prepared Herman
for the worst with another nrc-like left to
the same Jaw and Herman had sat down
for a count of six to think it over. When
he arose, slant eyed, Martin measured
him for a right and missed by an Inch,
then righted himself, quickly, and swung
that left again. It was all over.
Now Martin must be accepted as the
logical candidate, and seriously John,
there is no reason why you shouldn't
seize that proposition by the lapel and
hang right on. If you haven't gone back
beyond recall, you should outpoint this
Pepper fellow in any kind of a buck and
wing up to fifteen rounds. So It is all
right on that score.
And if you are concerned about the
purpose. Just consider the fact that tho
bout would arouse the cash customers to
a frenzy.
Martin ia extremely popular in Brook
lyn and other peculiar places where they
think he la unbeatable, so for the best of
financial reasons, the bout should be
held not too far away from Flatbush.
However, that Is strictly up to you,
John. This pepper person is waiting,
and since you will have to fight some
time, it might be as well with someone
who isn’t too good.
BIG LEAGUE STUFF
News Item—George Mogridge. well
knowx, and respected pitching chief of
Washington, brutally assaulted by strong
arm men in Philadelphia. Four home runs
in four innings, three in a row In the
fourth, an American League record.
Walker. Perkins and “Bing'' Sillier the
guilty parties. Walker getting two, one
in the first and another in the fourth.
Who won? Don't make us laugh!
Howard Ehmke lead one of his
good days and the Detroit Tigers
sent the Browns Into a tie for first
place by a three to one defeat.
The Giants made It four straight from
the Braves and took a firmer hold on
first place while the Braves took a
firmer hold on last place The Giants
treated their old pal, Rube Marquard,
very harshly. They gent him away from
there In exactly one third of an in
ning. Ryan managed to keep the
Braves' hits scattered.
It took Coreletkle to break the
Cleveland Indians’ losing streak of
five straight., and three Chicago pitch
ers, Russell, Wilkinson and McWeeny,
to help along the good work. The
Pole was hit hard, but nothing came
of It.
Couch, holding Plttsi/urgh to five hits,
made the Pirates lie down and be good
while the Reds won by the top heavy
score of 9 to 2. Harper made two sen
sational catchea In right held for the
Reds.
The Yankees also halted a losing
6troak. and with Frank Baker getting
five htfs, won as they pleased from the
Boston Red Sox. The Yanks, thereby
moved Into a tie with the Browns for
first place.
TOM ALLEY
INDIANA DAILY TIMES
Billy Evans Says
Plenty of Backbone in No-Hit Game
Gameness under Aral
That, added to phenomenal control is tha real answer to the no-hit, norun,
not-a-man-reach-flrst ball game hurled by Charley Robertson, Chicago White
Sox rookie, against the Detroit Tigers.
In my many years' experience as an arbiter I have never umpired a ball
game in which a pitcher showed more backbone. If Robertson never pitches
another game, his. one performance against the Tigers entitles him to go down
in history as a hurler with nerves of steel.
It was the rookie's second game as a big league inoundsman. Pitted against
one of the hardest hitting teams In the history of baseball,, he equaled a
record held by only two men: Cy Young and Addle Joss.
Away back in 1904 Y'oung, hurling for Boston, trimmed the Athletics In a
no-man-reach-first contest, and four years later Joss. Cleveland star, working
against Ed Walsh, turned the trick on the Chicago White Sox. Walsh, though
defeated, struck out' fifteen Clevelanders.
Robertson's feat, however, is oven more remarkable, since the Detroit team of
today is a much harder hitting club than were the White Sox or the Ath
letics of the old days. The Sox, In fact, were then known as the hitless won
ders.
-I- -|- -|. -!- -|- -|-
Fcat Performed Against Topnotch Sluggers
The Detroit team led the American League in batting last year with an av
erage well over .300. On the team is Harry Heilman, champ batter of the Amer
ican League for 1921., and Ty Cobb, runner-up. In addition there Is Bobby
Veaeh, one of the few remaining sluggers of the old type, and Lu Blue and
Bobby Jones, both numbered in the select circle of tha .300 hitters.
Again this slugging combination was a recruit pitcher working his second
full game as a major leaguer. For that reason Robertson's feat stands out
as one of the most remarkable performances in the annals of the game.
And above all, the gameness under fire stands out!
During the Inst five innings of the gtme the Detroit team constantly stopped
plav and insisted the umpires examine the ball. As late at the start of the last
half of the ninth, a protest was made that possibly Robertson was doctoring
the ball.
It Is possible the Detroit team bellsved Robertson was profiting through
trickery. It is also more probable that the n-otests were being made to throw
the recruit off his stride. Robertson never faltered. Instead of being upset he
seemed to grow better as the game progressed. It is a matter of record that
the Detroit Club hit the ball much harder In the early Innings than after the
protesting was started.
Robertson is a husky right-hander. He was picked up by the White Sox
while pitching for Austin College at Sherman. Texas. He is a graduate of that
institute. Last Besson be was farmed by the Chicago club to Minneapolis to
get further experience.
