Sbjufee itho Red Sox to win tho championship from the. New York Olants.
&& History repeated Itself and the new member was admitted yesterday when
F.Mx FiacK dropped Whlteman's liner and allowed two runs to trlcklo over
JVjUW platter. This muff gave Boston the game and the set.

tallies. Tyler cot In a hole hv tiasslnir two hatters, who were roosting
wfon second and third, with two out when AVhlteman stepped up. George
(. smacked one on the line to right and Flack, after a short run, got both
hands on the bait and dropped It Inglorlously. That was enough to give
gV Xtoston the ball game, and In short Is tpe story of yesterdays contllct,
IWhtch ended tho career of big league baseball until the finish fight on
wfertke other side ends In a knockout.

standard of the gate receipts. There were no thrills, no wild cheering and
the spectators sat out there' as If they were doing their duty.
PERIIA.PB they were frozen to their scUs, 1or ycitciday irn the
coldest September 11 in the history of lloston, and Boston is nn
' M foten.
Every "Break" Was Against Cubs
"irpHB Bed Sox outlucked the Cubs and rrabb 1 a conflict which should
I have gone against them by the score of 1 to 0. The National Leaguers
never made an error unless It was Important and alvas fell asleep on
the bases when there was u chance to score. Charley rick slumbered and
' tois nipped off first In the second when a batting lally was about to be
Staged, and Samuel Gompers Mann, tho well-known walking delegate of
the Cubs, spoiled the ball game In the fourth, when he allowed Wally
"-Bchang to pick him off flist. He would have been In a position to score had
Eg" Jie stuck close to the bag, but such a thing never occurred to him.
six Dase runners were nailed on the bag In the series, which demon
strates more than anything else the superiority of the Sox. The In
flelders kept a close watch on men on bases and nothing got nway
from them. Boston, on the other hand, had an easy time of It when
they we're on the footpaths, as they were allowed to wander at will from
Sine sack td another until they made the circuit. However, everything
.turned out as It should, for Boston had the better team and another
I' teams would have been too much. AVe now can let the great national
. . laoMiuo rcat. in jicutt;.
M The Cubs would not be out of step If they claimed all of the break
4, that went against them, for such was the case. But It must be remembered
that a club that takes adantage of these breaks, as Boston did, deserves

Sharpshooter Mays Introduces Succotash Ball

J noise of the final battle. This pitcher Is very, ery good when he Is in

P$f jjJMie batter to spike the third baseman or step Into the grand stand every
ifiiK jume tnis delivery is usea.
' Sometimes a player is hit on the head, but the game always proceeds.
ks the umpire has a lot of new balls to throw In to replace the damaged
ones. Occasionally the batter Is carried to first after stopping one of those
bean slants, but most of the time ne is replaced uy another athlete who
t has not yet been wounded. Thus It was bcltevcd that Mr. Mays had nothing
'jffjf W his sleeve to deceive the enemy; but he fooled them.

(Bhoots downward and scores a bullseye on an unprotected foot.

Hand Grenade Through for Season
A. K. Macomber'a Hand Grenade probably
will not rac any more this season. In
kA Manhattan tinndirnu last Tuesday liana
Grenade broke down and has been sent to
the Macomber stud.
Hero he came, swinging down the road
Just back of tho lines with the same
old grin Ho had been under fire, he
had been lard at It for some time past
In the big push, but the old grin and
the samo old gangling gait were still
there.
War had been unable to change Lank
Hank dowdy from the old Lank Hank
of baseball days, writes a khaki hoy In
the Stars and Stripes.
"This game over here Is all right,"
said Hank, "hut for a steady job all the
rest of my life 1 guess I'll tnko baseball.
Wo are going to see this one through
to a finish till the winning run goes
over in the ninth, but after that I don't
mind admitting I'll he ready to change
the gas mask for the catcher's mask
and to take my chance against Walter
Johnson's faBt ones rather than one of
tho fast ones from Fritz.
At tnat, hritz nasn t got much more
speed than Walter has and no better
control. But he's noisier nnd meaner,
and 1 guess we'll have to drive him from
the box, or help in doing it. Fritz won't
follow the rules and he wants to do his
own umpiring, but we've been landing
on him lately and he's ahout given up
hope for any luAy seventh. He had a
rally going, but he couldn't keep It up."
Lank Hank looks Just as he did In the
old das. His uniform Isn't the same
color or shape and neither Is the mask
he wears, but the change hasn't af
fected that world-embracing grin nor
the cheery call along the road.
CHA1U.EV PICK, the former Mack
man, who was brought bnck froip
the Pacific Coast League to take care
of the kev stone sack on the Chicago
Cubs, was the leading batter of all the
players who participated In the world's
scrl-s completed yesterday In Boston.
The all-around playing of Pick was
one of the biggest surprises of the berlcs
Critics had It all doped out how Babe
Hulli, Hollocher, Paskert. Mann, Mc
Innls. Strunk and Hooper were Just go
ing to stamp the tar out of the opposing
tvvlrlers. Not a lino was given to the
possibilities of Pick outbattlng these
stars.
But, as has been the case In so mnny
of the former classic games, the unex
pected happened. Pick came through
with seven hits In eighteen times at bat,
for nn average of .389. One of his safe
ties was a two-bagger. While Wally
Schang, also a former Mackman, had the
best batting nverage of ,444, he didn't
toe the rubber on as many occasions.
Boston Six-Time Winner
The wlii jesterday for Bostrn kept
the iccord ot Beantown clubs Immacu
late. On six occasions Boston has tri
umphed In tho world's seller co-ntests.
Of these victories, five have been ac
counted for by tho Bed Sox anil one by
the Braves.
As u icsult, the American League
now has a five-series lead on the senior
eh cult. The score Is ten series tw five,
with tho game tally fifty-six to thirty
eight. Of the last nine series, eight
have gone to the younger organization.
This would tend to prove that the Amer
ican Leaue sends Into the classic teams
which seem to he able to think and act
quicker than those of tho senior plant,
and seem to be better "money plajers."
It will be noted that Boston's margin
yesterday again was only one run. It
scored every ono of Its four victories
over the Cubs by that one run margin.
That ono run seems to be Just as sacred
as the cod 111 the Hub, for In sixteen
world's series successes by Boston
clubs thirteen have been recorded by one
run margins.
In 19 1.1 the Bed Sox won all their
four games from the Phillies by one run
and dropped only one game to the Moran
forces. The scries this year was tpe
fourth In the fifteen played since 1903
that went six games. The other three
were the 1906 series, In which tho Chi
cago Americans won from the Cubs, the
1911 affair. In which the Giants ran
second to the Athletics, and the 1917
competition, won by thc.Whlto Sox over
the Giants. Six series have been de
cided In five games.
New Fielding Record
In past years the world's series usu
ally developed mediocre baseball, but
this season it brought out some of the
finest mechanical and mental perform
ances yet seen on any diamond In any
five games without an error, and their
sort of competition. The Bed Sox played
lone mlsplay vvns a misjudged fly by
Whlteman. That sets a fielding record
which scries to come hardly will excel.
The Cubs, too, with only five cnors,
nlaved above world's scries form.
x Tho pitching was splendid and for the,
first time In our rememhrance the series
failed to develop even one homo run, and
