14 INDIANS WIN AT PROVIDENCE-TWO GAMES WITH RICHMOND TODAY-SPORT NEWS WELCOME HOME FOB ZIMMTS INDIANS Double-Head Attraction at Island Park This Afternoon; Big Boost For Harrisburg Harrisburg's second home schedule opened at Island Park this afternoon with a double-header with Richmond. The Indians reached Harrisburg from Providence this morning. Manager Eddie Zimmerman hopes for better luck at home. Three of his players, Mensor, Chabek and Kraft were ill during the trip. Callahan and Schacht are out of the gaioe with Injuries. Harrisburg has received the great est amount of advertising through its International League Club that this city has ever received from any source. A great deal depends on the patron age during the next home stay of the club as to whether this city will have a franchise or not in the league next season. The fans are all with Eddie Zimmerman and his players and great er crowds than during the initial se ries are expected. As one businessman expressed It: "Let's go over to the Island and give the boys a welcome that will outdo anything a Harrisburg club has ever known before." On Monday the Indians will start another great series with the Provi dence club, playing single games on Monday and Wednesday and a double header on Tuesday in celebration of Thorpe Day. Next Thursday and Fri day are open dates and next Saturday the Jersey City club will be on the Island for a double-header. Here is what the Providence Journal says about Harrisburg: Championship "Pep" "Harrisburg showed an entirely dif ferent brand of ball than the aggre gation, then wearing Newark silks, put up in the last series at Melrose Park, showing championship timber with the old pep oozing out at tap and bung. The Tigers were after the spoils and never ceased to bite and tear with tooth and nail until the final play was made." "Toots Schultz faced the fiery crowd from the banks of the Susquehanna and he got the worst of a splendidly pitched game. Thines broke against him at every turn, the saddest blow being the one Enzmann wafted to deep center on which he completed the cir cuit." "Both games were loaded to the muzzle with dazzling, almost phenom enal fielding. McNallv had such a day as seldom falls to the lot of a ball player. Of his 12 chances a dozen of them were covered with spangles. His work while bristling all through the double bill, was especially deadly in the tenth when Harrisburg threatened twice running in for bunts and get ting the ball to second ahead of a run ner off to a flying start." "Out in the center pasture of the Harrisburg team Mensor browsed around in fine shape and during the afternoon collected 10 flies, everyone of a hair-raising variety. Mowe at ?hort field repeated the fine work shown in the previous games. Kraft nearly repeated his great stunt of last Tune by driving the ball over the left field fence, but it was foul about 10 feet." IXTERXATIOXAL LEAGUE At Jersey City— R. H. E.
