Deubert and Olson Lend Attack
Brooklyn, cheered, on by the friendly
. sswlf of the home-town fan and by the
'teran presence of Coombs, who has yet
iV lots his first world series came, drove
Ctrl Mays and his underhand delivery from
3 Ike field within Ave rounds. This fierce
HMult was led by Jake Daubert and Ivan
Olson, who, between them, ran up three
Unties and a brace of triples. But the do
etelre wallop of the chilly combat was Ol
son's triple In tho fifth, a sonorous smash
'.Uskt came with two on and two out. that
save Brooklyn the exact margin she needed
Jar a winning drlvo.
Dsubert's triple came within 'less than
sa Inch of being n home run. Jake struck
- (Ms blow from the Ditching arm of George
f fetter, who supplanted Mays In the sixth.

The two big mistakes made on this play,
that might have been a wrecker, were
made by Daubert and O'Day. Daubert
.made the first mistake In not leaping
promptly to his feet the second that O'Day

ifitver to rise again. Hank's mistake came
In giving his decision before he saw the
pjay completed, for there was time enough
later on for Thomas to push away Jake's
foot and thereby upset the evidence.
No Bearing on Result
But as Brooklyn won anyway no harm
resulted, where otherwise there might have
been a healthy young riot t this had been
the deciding tally of the bleak afternoon.
When the third battle swung under way
at t o'clock there were two distinct chills.
One came from a nlnnlng autumn wind and
the other came from long rows of vacantj
ais in tne upper tier, the vacancies Deing
dee to the i 5 tag attached, the $E being fig
ured exactly 12 too much by the horny
bended sons of Fandom, who refused to
land the tax. ift
But those who favored Brooklyn's cause
vanned up Immediately when It was seen
that BUI Carrlgan had sent In Carl Mays
to face John Wesley Coombs. Dutch Leon
ard's presence might have Increased the
chllj, but the presence of Mays against
i Coombs was strictly another kink, Mays
as an unknown quantltyFwhlle Coombs
had behind him a long tradition of world
tries triumphs, lie had begun his post
season career In 1910 with three victories
ovtr the waning Cubs. He had beaten the
Giants In 1911, with still another victory
fat 1912, wben he wrenched his side and was
forced to quit In the ninth.
So out of five previous start Coombs had
never known defeat. No wonder, with tWs
past record and his known courage, coolness
and brains, Brooklyn went, to war with new
confidence In a rush to maul that underhand
ammunition of Mays out of the lot.
For five Innings Coombs pitched with all
Ms ancient lore. Through this spell he held
the Bed Sox to four singles and a scoreless
frame. Shorten alone had his range. But
after Brooklyn had driven Maya tq cover
with a fusillade of swats and Colby Jack
j w leading, i to o, tne veteran began to
i d'Ut,
Two Runs In the Sixth
A pass to Henrlksen, Hooper's triple and
Bhorten's third single scored two runs In
the sixth. When Larry Gardner drove one
wer tne right neld Tenco in the seventh.
Coombs called his Infield around him. and
after a brief parley waved Jeff Pfeffer In
from center field to finish the game. Coombs
vas game enough and wIbo enough to know
wben a younger arm was needed; and

UTT1 "t that, he was not up to rftffr's
relief standard, an Brooklyn bats had him
in a rickety attitude more than once. Theae
same Brooklyn bats ar likely to bother the
Bed Sox defense a lot before the series
ends this week. In the first two games
Brooklyn had the stronger attack and Bos
ton the stouter defense,
But In tho third grapple of the nrles
Brooklyn not only maintained a more av.
age attack, but in addition backed up her
pitchers with a derente far stronger than
the Boston brand
There Is still another element for Brook,
lyn cheer. In tho first two games Boston
pitchers had Jake Daubert, the club's star
hitter, striking nut or shooting duck. Jake
couldnt hit seven cents' worth thoae nrst
games, and the slump trail reaching cottly
and depressing proportions. With Daubert
sewed up In n gunnysnek, Brooklyn's as
saultlng power was badly weakened.
Daubert Recovers Batting Eye
But yesterday Jake crashed back Into the
bor score with the unkempt slump blown
to ntOmlO UKt In the flnl Innlnv h mil.
ran a bewildering bunt which Mays also
fumbled, trying both the single and double
grip. In the third Inning Jake cracked
out a. clean single, scoring later on singles
by Stengsl and Cutshaw. In the sixth he
planted his longest blow to deep left for
three and one-half bases, the only hit of Its
sort ever known. This must be scored
i.r. th1ree-nnd-n-half-base drive through
O'Dny's double decision.
, Hank first called tho runner safe, and It
Is still a matter of burning debate ns to
whether the toe fell short or whether Chcs
ter Thomas eased In with the push that
carried the toe an Inch away. Under these
conditions the final score should have been
4H to 3, In place of 4 to J, as recorded
oftlclnlly, .
Brooklyn's defense was easily on a par
with her attack. Fine Infield plays by
Mike Mowrey and Ivan Olson blocked two
Boston rushes and a fine running catch by
Zach Wheat foiled another. Brooklyn's de
fense for this game was built upon confi
dent lines. There was none of tho flutter
ing, duck-fit stuff which characterized
her ploy In Boston, and If this defence
Is continued, with the attack maintained,
Boston Is far from being beyond defeat.
Boston's attack has been spotty all through
the series, and only her wonderful defense
has held her up.
Another peculiar feature which has
developed Is tho upset In pitching. Bed
Sox pitching was supposed to be peerless,
outclassing all compettlon. Tet to date
Shore, Ruth, Mays and Foster have all
been outpltched by Marquard. Smith.
Coombs and 1'fcffer, and If Brooklyn had
only played sound ball In the field she
might have easily had two It not three
games under her. belt, as the sprightly
saying Is.
There are any number who believed that
Carl Mays, with his freak delivery, would
stop Brooklyn cold, Brooklyn may have
been cold, but rhe wasn't stopped. She
came near dlamantlng Mays In the first
Inning when Myers was hit and Daubert
outran a bunt down the line. When Stengel
sacrificed and Wheat was passed, filling
tho bases, with none out, the contest look
ed to be already In But Boston's defense
saved the day again when Hobby scooped
up a mean bounder and nipped Myers
at the plate. The bases were still full
when Mike Mowrey came up, but Sir
Michael stood In a trance as the third strike
sailed Over, and the Impending rally re
turned to-'(ead and weeds.
Olson Bags the Game
The entry who bagged the game for
Brooklyn was Ivan Olson, rated one of the
club's weak cogs. Olson scored a run In
the third when he outlegged a bunt to
Gardner and took second on Larry's bad
throw, Coombs driving his mate home
with a single to right.
In the sixth Wheat and Mowrey walked.
Wjth two out, a cave-In by Olson .would
have left Boston in possession of three
straight, but Ivan the Terrible poled a long
triple to left center, which scored both men
and gave Brooklyn all the lead she needed
to stop her rival's confident march down
the OneWay Street,
The second factor, next to her defense.
that has built up the bulk of Red Sox fame,
came after the sixth, This was an amaz
ing ability to rally under the gray shadow
of defeat and keep on fighting.
With the score 4 to 0 against her and
Coombs at his best, Boston showed no desire
to curl up and desist, as the saying Isn't It
was just here' that the astounded Red Sox,
who had no thought of defeat, came lurch
ing and lunging back Into the thick of the
jubilee;
With one out In the sixth. Henrlksen.
batting for Mays, drew a pass. This brought
Harry Hooper up, a ball player who Isn't
any more dangerous In a world series than
guncotton Is around an open stove. The
only thing that Harry Hooper can't do with
a baseball In a world series jflnch Is to
make It fry an egg. He followed Henrlksen
with a long triple to right center, and when
Shorten etruck oft his third blow the Native
Sou of Swat counted himself.
Only two runs behind now, Boston went
back after Colby Jack In the seventh. After
Lewis popped out Larry Gardner drove one
far over the right field wall and Brooklyn's
four-run lead had been cut In less than
two innings to a pallid tally that looked
about as big as a gnat. It was here that
Jack Coombs decided that the appointed
moment had arrived to call upon another
man. -And when Jeff Tfeffer stepped In
Boston's rallying assault -suddenly became
futile again.

IN THH midst of Uie world series nuua.
baloo the eportlwr realm at larire has
paid no (treat attention yet to the depres
slon at Harvard atter tha Tufts raid
Tufts has a fine football machine, a. Tuft
team to beat, you might aay, If you cared to
Indulge In any frivolity, but the fact that
even a rood Tufls eleven can overthrow a
Harvard team Is a bit sUnlfleant. Which
Is to say that It comes aa an early hint
that after a four-year relen Harvard su
premacy Is on th verse of aklddtnr a bit.
1015 and 101C
Last fall Harvard fell before Cornell.
Hut the blf Ited team from Ithaca stood
as ona of the ureal teams of the year
one of the great. If not the greatest. And
that was Harvard's only setback.
However, 1916 hardly will have the same
story to tell. Harvard already has been
nipped once, and tha season Is barely
under way, with the hardest part. If not
the Tuftest part, of the schedule still
beyond. It Is hardly likely then that Har
vard will be able to go the rest of the way
unbeaten, rrlnceton will enter the stadium
with one of the strongest Tiger teams In
many years, and when Harvard reaches the
Tain bowl, late In November, sh will find
a Blue array out to avenge four years
of anguish and defeat
The Shifting Tide
It may be possible that Harvard has not
yet reached the shifting tide that each
eleven must know.
Each man's reign In sport only lasts so
lonir. At the appointed moment the re
action sets In and the jolt lands with a
thud.
Haughton has been the master of his
game for at least four years ever since
Princeton beat him and Tale tied him, five
years ago. But as great a coach as Haugh
ton was and Is, it also must be remembered
that for 1916 no Brlckleya. Hardwlclts or
Marians aro romping around In crimson
harness. There Is good backfleld material
at Harvard, but no one great star to act 'as
a threat and a reality to carry the ball
and to threaten an attack as a protection
for another backfleld runner. By next fall,
when Haughton will have had the chance
to develop some of his young men, he may
have another 1914 or 1916 backfleld, but
he will havo to work twenty-seven hours a
day to erect such a combination within the
next month and get ready for Cornell,
Princeton and Tale.
The Other Three
These three Cornell, Princeton and Tale
are all set to take a shot at Harvard in
turn. Cornell and Princeton both have fine
chances to win. Tale's strength hardly can
be determined now, although tha Blue ma
chine la pretty aura to be better than any
Elldom has known for four seasons. It
may be that Harvard can win two of these
three games, but a decided change will have
to come, for the prospect now Is that one
out of three will be the Crimson limit
Cornell and Princeton both havo speed
and power, enough material to Insure
strength. And If Tale continues the clip
she started Saturday Colonel Haughton will
face one of the busiest little campaigns he
ever has known.
After all, Harvard Is about due for a
slump ; the wonderful average that she has
maintained sines 1911 hardly could ba car
ried on Indefinitely. She has earned her
right to one off year, even If this oft year
should bring defeat In every big game,
which Is no part of a safe gamble.
Tou may recall the old saying, "Aa this
ol' world goes roun' and roun' some go up
and aome down."
Harvard has been up a long time; as
supremacy exists In sport, her time on the
losing side has to comej but vei it she
slips. It is hardly likely that tha slump wttl
last for over on season. It Haughton fa
linahl to rebuild this year, th young mm.
terlai he has on hand should b rips enough
to get up and go somewhere by another
The renowned Hube drops from one world
