Ball players are superstitious especially Indianapolis ball players for it was the thirteenth that whipped thorn yesterday Jim Taggart Bill Wagner and the thirteenth pushed tbs Indians out of a good chanco to take first place in the A A marathon It was Jim Taggart's terrific three ply smack to right field followed by Wag ner's long sacrifice fly to center that put across the winning tally it happened in the thirteenth Columbus won 2 to 1 or a time the Indians were tn first place for St Raul lost to Kansas City and their game was completed some half an hour before the Indians got the big smack stuck on them It was a rOVal chfinre for the Indiana to grab the lead but they were not able to connect with Roy Wilkinson slants with any degree of regularity It was this Mr Wilkinson who stood between the Indians and victory Clint Roe ge hurled for the Indians and pitched a superb brand of ball Columbus getting their only run in the regulation nine Innings of play on two errors a hit and interference on the par of when Shovlln attempted to round third on Pechous's single to left Shovlln gained first base when Crane fumbled grounder Then Rogge in attempting to catch the Co lumbus second ticker off first threw the ball away allowing Shovlln second base Have Several Chances Indianapolis had several chances to ealt the game but three fast double plays one of which have been prevented rallies However the Tribe had the bases jammed In the second in 'ning due to three bases on balls by Jim Park with only one out pulled out of the hole when he forced Gossett to pop to McCarty and then Wagner tossed out Rogge As on Tuesday much time was taken up by players wrangling with each other and the umpire Johnny Mc Carty threw a baseball nt Clint Rogge In the second inning hut got off with a $10 fine by Umpire Hunter when he should have been ejected from the game Roy Massey objec ted sc strenuously on a called third strike by Umpire Moran that he was sent to the showers In the third round Johnny Shovlln was chased off the coaching lines by Moran because of his incessant fire of un complimentary remarks directed at the fl drove 983 and Paul Babldt at 949 those closely following the race voiced the opinion that the Ballot team was playing a safe game for a victory with Thomas as the pacemaker All this dope was upset the minute Louis' Chevrolet wheeled his creation the aluminum rontenac at 1031 and young Joe Boyer Jr flashed the track at greater than 100 and the two other members of the team over the century markx Louis Chevrolet the fans declare is as capable a driver as Thomas and the younger Chevrolet Joe Boyer Jr and Ralph Mulford can be relied on to drive a daring race Pitted against them are the rench Ballot team who the fans until yesterday were backing strong for the finish There was nothing spectacular about the performance of the four rontenacs but ail four drivers put their mounts down the brlckoval at a terrific pace Itarly in the afternoon Louis Chevrolet signaled for a trial but he made the Itip In the disappointing speed of slNty miles an hour It was apparent the rontenac was not right and when Chevrolet came back on the track and reeled the two and one half miles in 1:27:37 the railbirds and hundreds of Spectators knew that the American motor was a serious contender to the much touted rench speed Creations Thirteen drivers qualified during the day five of them exceeding 100 miles an hour an unheard of record In Speed way race circles This makes a total Of twenty four to qualify out of the thir ty three cars which may start under the rules of the American Automobile Association ourteen drivers have nine places left and fast time is predicted Two Below 90 Miles rom the speed records being hung up during

b's in their qualifying laps Andre Ltillot drove his Baby Peugeot nt S9fi and loinniy Milton took an average of 399 Shortly before Tommy Milton started the official lap he turned the track at 101

of a mile of the low mark for Tuesday's trials Omer Toft driving a Barco Special thrilled the railbirds when hia big white ear swung around two circles on the south turn The track had a number of cars
