iVictoyy for Brooklyn Would Mean First Defeat
in World's Series ior a Boston Club Dope
May Be Upset
BOSTON, Jim, Oct 7.
PRESIDENTS, maimers, pKrers and fans from all parts of the country nro
having their guess as to the probable winner of the world's aeries between
JssHsw, hajpte of Uio American Leairue, and Brooklyn, champion of the
MM(at League, and almost without exception favor the lied Sox to win, re
aaafes'sss of the reeult of the flnt game. Of course, thn National Leaguers think
the Dodgera are likely to come through, but the outsider doe not think that
Brooklyn baa a chance.
The wonderful work of the Tied Sox pttchera and the euperb defensive play
that enabled Carrlgan's team to win the American League pennant, without the
ervleea of the wonderful Speaker and the absence of peerless Jack Barry for
the laat Are weeka of the aeaeon, are responsible for thla feeling. The Hod Sox
admirers point out that Carrlgan haa the greatett pitching staff In baseball and
46 Bet better that It will require more than two or three runs per game to sweep
the aerie. They contend that Brooklyn waa made to order for Boston, and that
the superior team work and balance of Carrlgan's team are enough to convince
ee that it will be all Bed Box.
They completely overlook the fact that the majority of world's champion
ship have been won by one or two pltohera in low-score gamea, and act very
muoh aa if they expected Manager Robinson, of the Dodgers, to send In hurlera
with broken pitching arms and for the Brooklyn batsmen to go to the plate with
toothpicks in their hands. One would, hardly think that two championship teams
were meeting in the big event; he would come to the conclusion that the Amerl
am. League champions were battling against tho Athletics as they, wero going
t In July.
Red Sox Hare Great Battle Ahend
ONB would naturally oxpeot that Boston would be the favorite in this city, but
the strongest Boston sentiment appears to be among the outside element of
i presidents, managers, players, scribes and fans. Everybody appears to be over
looking the fact that Brooklyn has batted the star pitchers of the National Loague
Unmercifully, once the famous ono-lnntng machine gets started, and that tho great
hurlera of the older league, who have boenpounded off the rubber in the one
inning rallies, are every bit as good as the hurlers Carrlgan will depend upon to
retain the ohamplonahlp of the world.
It la hard to understand this feeling. It Is true that the Red Box ahowed
wonderful form In every critical series and la considered the greatest money club
in baseball. But waa not the same thing said of the Athletics In 1914T
After listening to all the gossip from the veterans of the game and those who
are considered the smart men of the game, we wonder whore we ever got the
Idea that Brooklyn had a splendid chance and why we have a hunch that the
Red Sox have a great battle on their hands. The first gome means more to the
2odgers than the Red Box, but dofeat today dooa not eliminate Brooklyn, aa the
American League champions probably will find out.
Robins Play Straight Baseball
BOSTON may win, and should win on form, and will If It is as great a team
aa the critics tell us, but why a championship aggregation of one league
should be considered so superior to that of another league, with the nemo drafting
and purchasing privileges la a mystery to us. Tho peerless Cubs and the Mack
men In their palmy days were teams that were considered Invincible, and also
were teams upon which the gambling man thought he was taking no risk In laying
odds of two, to one, but the Red Box surely do not resemble elthor.
Behind It all there appears to be prejudice against the Dodgers. Tho wise
men of the game cannot see the Dodgers because they never havo shown any
Inside "stuff," and we doubt If there is a single critlo outside or Now York and
Brooklyn who will concede Robinson's team the remotest chance. But wo will go
on record as saying that Brooklyn has almost on even chance, and with consist
ent pitching from three hurlers it is likely to win.
By consistent hurling we do not mean anything out of the ordinary, but just
aa good as they got during their best stretch, which was In August, "with Boston's
hurlera going at tho best clip they showed during the regular championship series.
If Boston's two left-handers can show anything out of tho ordinary tho American
Leaguers will have ail the better of It; but If only one of them comes through, Car
rlgan is likely to do a lot of worrying before the series ends.
? Brooklyn's Nervousness Is Over
BROOKLYN is aa odd team. It Is aa likely to win four in a row from any team
as it la to lose a like number, and lta greatest drawback Is a tendency on the
part of some of Robinson's men to quit when things ore brealtlng bad. A team of
h this sort goes like wildfire If it gets a few good breaks, and sometimes just the
men who are expected to blow up in the pinch are the yery ones who star In a
series of this Sort.
It may be that Robinson's team was thinking too much about getting Into the
world's series because of tho financial return and was suffering from the strain
ef leading the pennant race almost from the very first day of the season. With
at least a large stake assured, it may go out and play a carefree game, with the
nervousness of the early Innings of the first game a thing of tho past
It was noticeable that yesterday the odds began to drop, and whereas they
were laying from 8 to E and 2 to 1 on Boston in the early part of tho week, it was
down to 7 to E last night, with plenty of Brooklyn money In sight.' This probably
may havo been due to the fact that the Bostonlans were expecting tho New York
delegation to come to this city with plenty of money and that they could force
the odds down; but it was noticeable that many of the men who aald they would
take all ihe 8 and 8 to E they could find wero nonpartisans, many coming from
Chicago aSd other points in tho Middle tVrst yesterday afternoon.
Boston Has Won Four World's Series
TP BOSTON Is beaten It will bo tho first Ume that a Boston team ever has lost
a world's series event. Four times the Now Cnglandors have taken part in
world's championships and always have won. Tho Red Box started the procession
In 1908 by beating the Mrates. In 1913 the Red Sox repeated against the Giants.
The National League team, the Braves, then trimmed tho ainckmen in four straight
games, while test fall the Red Box won from the Phillies.
It is almost laughable to hear some of tho "wise ones" telling about the easy
Victory of the Red Sox over the Phillies last fall. One would think that Moron's
team waa outclassed completely In every gome. Instead of every contest being de
cided by a one-run margin. Incidentally, this Is one of tho main arguments of
those who insist that Brooklyn lias not aposslble chance to beat Carrlgan's team.
It Is also rather odd that almost all of the veteran baseball men Insist thaftho
Phillies Is the beet team In the National League and tho only aggregation in the
league that could give Carrlgan's Red Box a battle. Bostonlans admit that they
feared Alexander the Great and do not see how any team could trim them if they
were in form. Yet for some odd reason they do not fear the Brooklyn pitchers,
who showed more consistent form than Moran's hurlers throughout the raco.
After listening to all arguments, one find out that the -world's series is
Jtothlng hut a case of personal likes and dislikes and depends largely upon the
fereaks. One little play may chango the whole series, andr It is a toss-up which
"team pulls it or which player la unfortunate enough to repeat tho famoua Snod
tgra or Merkle plays.
Ty Cobb expects the Brooklyn club to play a wide-open game against the Red
Sox. In that event the Robins will have very little chance to win the series, as
Mil Carrlgan's style Is not only adequate to meet a similar one, as proved last
year in the aeries with the .Phillies, but is also versatile enough to stay, a free-
Mttisg club which depends entirely on open baseball.
"Weldon Wyckoff may consider himself Just about the luckiest man in base
hall He will cut In on the world's series pie aa a member of the Red Box.
Wyek(T has no more chance of getting Into one of the games than the writer
f Uteee few lines. In view of the fact that Carrlgan is out to win, not to lose.
Yet he Is fortunate enough to havo been let go by Mack Just when Carrlgan had
to get some one, even though he knew the man would be valueless In any Im
portant engagements. ,

WATSONWASHBURN
HAS TWO DISTINCT
STYLESOFTENNIS
Varies Natural Back-Court
Game With an Effective
Net Attack
By WILLIAM T. TILDEN, 2d
There is no player In the first ten who
looks less dangerous and proves harder to
beat than Watson 'M. Washburn, No. 7, for
this Reason, In our opinion. Washburn has
had a peculiar reason.
lie has hail n record of wins over many
prominent plnyers. only to fall down badly
twice once to O'Neal and once to IS. P.
Larned. Ho has defeated Douglass Walters,
Ted Whitney, Kumagae, when he met the
famous Japanese In that .wonderful little
plaer's first grass-court tournament. This
defeat of Kumagae must therefore be dis
counted. Armstrong (twice). Alrlo Man.
Ward Dawson, It. Llndley Murray, Dana,
Wallace F. Johnson, William J. Clothier.
Dean Mnthey and Willis E. Davis are
other victims.
Ilestdes being defeated by Jimmy O'Nell
and I'd learned, ho has fallen before CJeorgo
Church. T. R. Pell and three times to-WU-11am
M. Johnston.
Washburn won tho'FoInt Judith event
and also the Southampton tournament, his
blggost win, when he defeated Clothier In
the finals and gained his second leg on
the cup.
Washburn played Murray to a standstill
In the East vs. West matches, gaining a vic
tory over him ivben, with the sets 2 ell,
Murray was compelled to default owing to
Illness. fe ,
Washburn has a peculiar two-sided game
that Is very Interesting Ills natural game,
the one he plays the most, Is a back court,
accurately placed, one that depends on his
opponents' errors for ultimate victory. Ills
other game, the one that he used to defeat
J, 3. Armstrong at Southampton, l a net
attack, bnBud on anglo volleying. It Is
peculiar to land two such, radically dif
ferent types In one man, but Washburn
can play either effectively. Ills strongest
game Is his back-court game, since that Is
natural to him, coupled with occasional
net attacks.
Washburn's drive Is a peculiar "wrist
slap" that carries good pace. Owing to
the fact that the wrist) (fives direction, It Is
a very hard fehot to, anticipate at the net,
since he can chanre Its direction up to the
moment of hitting the ball.
Ills servo is fast and well placed, his vol
leying accurate and a times severe, while
his overhead Is alnays reliable.

IJy GRANTLAND RICE
hosto.V, Oct 7 This should be known
as the Filbert Dynasty, or the Nut Kpoch
In balldom'a wide spread empire.
There was a time on opening day when
world series talk was built around the
pitching of a Mathewson, a Walsh, a Dono
van, a Dender, a Wood, a Tesreau or an
Alexander. Or, perhaps a ItUdolph, a
James, a Babe Adams or a Shore.
These eminent Sons of Swat all operate
with the right arm exclusively, proving the
Innate sanity of their arlous times. Dut
today nround Doston tho grand tip-off on
this lop-sided age lias been unfolded beyond
any doubt.
Save for n few cursory remarks anent the
reappearance of John Wesley Coombs, nono
but left-handers Is allowed to occupy the
sacred portals of the dope. Brooklyn
backers are talking of Uube Marquard and
Boston camp followers are chanting on the
names of Dutch Loonard nnd Babe Ituth.
It Is almost a certainty now, so far as
certainties eter get In such a complex
enterprise, that two leftriianders will open
the big series this afternoon for the first
time In baseball history. There have been
cases before where a left-hander opposed a
right-hander, the first Instance being 1905,
when Christy Mathewson hooked up with
Edward T. Flank.
But If you care to look back through
the dope you will find that right-handers
have always been the prevailing factors
Dlnrtn, I'hllllpe, Young, X,eeer, Mathew
son, McCIInnlty, Bender, Walsh, Brown,
Overall, Donovan, Adams, Coombs, Tes
reau, Wood. Bed lent, Rudolph, James and
Alexander rounding out the bulk of the
world series list.
The only left-handers who have figured
to any great extent have been Altrock,
Plank, Marquard and Leonard. But now
we come to nothing but left-handers for
opening day, unless Brooklyn should de
cide to enter Jack Coombs against Leonard
or Ituth at the final moment.
Babe Iluth. while Boston's leading pitcher
lost year and her best winner this season,
has yet to work In a world series game,
but If he doesn't start .Saturday he will
be used early next week beyond any doubt.
Dutch Leonard has pitched only one world
series contest, and on that occasion he held
the gasping Phillies In the palm of his big
brown paw.
Great Box Rattle
If Rube Marquard starts against Leonard
or Iluth, the same being the forecast for
the afternoon's jubilee, oer 40.000 of the
fan-elect should see one of the best pitching
conclaves of tho year.
Thcro Is no great chance that Brooklyn
batsmen will make any great headway
against the Dutch person or the Big Babe,
nnd If thp Rube Is anywhere near his best
Red Sox sluggers will find him a rough
barrier In their way to success.
Kor the Rube has tho stuff, the confidence
now and more world series experience than
any man on the mound. Having faced
Frank Baker, Eddie Collins, Stuffy Mo
Innls and Trls Speaker, he will have no
great mental flurries In tackling the team
lie has to meet, as aggressive as It Is.
Beat the Phils
Marquard gathered In renewed confidence
when he was set up as the final hope of
Brooklyn success. The Phillies had beaten
his mates seen time In succession. An
other Philadelphia victory would have top
pled the Robins Into the vat beyond any
debate. But at the Big Epoch the stal
wart Rube stood Moran's hustling club
upon their beam ends, driving them In utter
rout from tho field.
This exhibition was enough to show that
Marquard had returned again to the old
output that a few years ago made him
the terror of the batting tribe. Ha will
have the memory of this last Phllly start
In his domo when he tackles Boston
nnd he will also have the memory of a
certain October afternoon four years ago
when he gave the alants new hope by
trimming Boston with Speaker nt his best.
8o Boston will have no monopoly on
good pitch ng today or Monday. If the
Red Sox pitchers slip a trifle they will be
In for a hsrder game than they first ex
pected to draw. ,

CLAREY FAVORITE
FOR GOLF TROPHY
IN LU LU TOURNEY
Woodbury Star in Semifinal
RoundTo Play Costa
Today
Unless he goes completely off his aame,
Edward Clarey, qf Woodbury Country Club,
stands an excellent chance of winning the
W. Freeland Kendrlck trophy In the fall
Invitation tournament of the Lu Lu Temple
Country Club, at Edge Hill, Pa. Yesterday
he won both his matches ty a wide mar
gin, despite the fact that he had to con
cede strokes to his opponents. In the morn
ing round he gave A. W. LaRocho eight
strokes, but defeated him on tho fifteenth
hole, 6 up and t to play. In the afternoon
the medal winner tackled Myles Hlgglns.
and, giving him the same number of
strokes, he won the match 4 up and 2 to
play. Against Hlgglns Clarey played won
derfully good golf, considering ilio condi
tions. He was out In thlrty-nlnc, as against
forty-three, and was two up at the turn.
Coming In he was even fours for seven
holes.
Herbert B. Newton and Dr. Samuel Bol
ton, both from the Frankford Country Club,
had a battle royal In the first round. New
ton conceded his opponent two strokes, and
this enabled Bolton to hold a lead of one
hole at the ninth. Newton squared the match
on the eleventh and after that neither could
obtain a winning lead, and when the elg
teenth was reached the match was all
square. The nineteenth was halved, but
on the twentieth Newton got a three to
Bolton's four and put an end to the contest
M. J. Costa sprang a surprise by de
feating E. H. Fairbanks, 2 up and 1 to
play. Although Costa does not play a long
game he Is wonderfully straight, which Is
a decided advantage on, the Lu Lu Temple
course. Today he will play Clarey In
the semifinal round. In the other semi,
final lUtrglns plays Brown.
