They fought a 10 round draw here recently. Odds were even on to- night’s match Both are hard punchers and possess plenty stam- ina for a gruelling fight. In their last bout Petrolle piled up a wide margin in the early rounds by his body attack, only to lose it by a desperate rally by the English- man, in the final round. Promoter Jim Mullins said he would announce the date of the championship bout with Mandell fol- lowing tonight's fight unless it re- sults in another draw. He said he had Mandell’s signature to the con- tract and that the title match would jbe held here sometime in Septem- ber. ‘MILLERS CHOP INDIANS’ LEAD Chicago, Aug. 23.4" —Their lead in the American Association ¢ sheared to a yan at a five-game series with Minneapolis, the Indianapolis In- dians pitched camp at Milwaukee to- day, hoping for a kind reception from Jack Lelivelt’s somewhat shat- tered crew. uy Their bats rattling a final defiant salvo, the Millers took the last game of their series from Indianapolis yesterday, 8 to 7, in 11 innings. Speece, Indian relief pitcher, was re- sponsible for the extra inning game. He hit a homer in the ninth with \the bases loaded to tie the score at seven-all, but Cotter won it by hit- | ting a single in the 11th, bringing in the deciding run. | Toledo made it three straight over | Milwaukee by finding three pitchers for 19 safeties and winning the final game of the series, 16 to 1. Manager Lelivelt was informed the St. Louis Browns had decided to loan him Guy Sturdy for the ress of the season to replace first baseman Ivy Griffin, who is out with a lame shoulder. Home runs by Wera, Foss, Haas and Gaston and Zahniser’s four hit pitching gave St. Paul four out of tive over Louisville yesterday by a count of 8 to 0.

If things had gone much tional league pennant necessarily would have been awarded to the team capable of the most expert back-pedaling, which would have brought the Phillies in for serious consideration. Shaded at Redland field yesterday by a score of 5 to 4, the cohorts of McGraw left for Pittsburgh shorn of dignity but able to walk. The New York expeditionary force still owned a margin over the Cardinals in the pennant race only because the deceitful Dodgers nipped the Red Birds at Spotsman’s park by 3 to 2.
