MAXWELL Sports Editor Errnlnc rublle Ledger "WAS after the tlnat same of the world teries last Wednesday and eral scribes who were fortunate enough to procure scats In the crowded Pullman iero speeding toward New York. Tlio sole topic of conversation was the Inglorious finish of the once-popular classic and the terrible muff of Max Flack's which gave the Hcd Sov the deciding battle. A few of the deans contended that Max had a perfect right to foozle Whlteman's liner because It was a hard chance, while others maintained he should have caught It with both ejes shut and one hand tied behind his back. Before a vote could be taken, however, a Chicago journalist ended the argument by taking the floor and talking until cery one fell asleep. ""Perhaps Klack perpetrated a boner and lost the noild hcrlcs," he Orafcd, "and perhaps again he didn't. Assuming he did, however, it gici lrim an Average of .COO, for 1 distinctly recall the day In Chicago when he.TVon the Kedcral League pennant for Charley Wceghman. U happened onthe last day of the aeason October 3, 1915 which also was the last day "of life for the Feds. Thero was a doublcheader scheduled, and the race was bo close that Pittsburgh, to win. the pennant, had to win both games or win one and tic ono or else play only one and win it. "Wecghman's park was Jammed 34.210 Inside, to be c.aci an'il the crowd was spread from flrt bate along the foul line to the right Ik-Id fence, then atound the field, along the fence to the left foul line and down to tliiid. Tou know how small the park is, po ou can understand how II wai. A'crowd of 20,000 would jam the park, and here were 1 1 Ou'J mote. itniTTSBUIiGU icon the flist game, which was a long dinwn 1 out affair, and it was netting late when the second toiitcit , .was started. There wasn't a chance to play the full nine innlngt. Darkness Hangs Heavily Over the Players 4400 THE second game started with darkness coming on fast. Elmer 3 Knetzer, who pulled the first game out of the flro for Pittsburgh, was on.-the mound. He was in fine- form, as was Bill Bailej. twilling for the home club. "For five Innings the game went along without either team getting a man beyond second, and it looked like a 'deadlock, which would hae given the flag to the Smoketown team. The sixth inning started with a mantle of thick darkness hanging over the field and the players hardly were visible from the press box. T.ebel' Oakes appealed to Umpire 1JU1 Brennan to call the game, but he refucd. The crowd also began to yell, for part of It couldn't sec what was going on. Only the night owls enjoyed themselves. "In this Inning Chicago managed to Mip a couple of men on base, but the next two batters perished at the plate. The darkness became darker, when Max Flack stepped up. Now Max is a hard man to pitch to when he stoops over, and with the uncertain light the pitcher had a hard job on his hands to keep from handing him a pass. Flack missed the first one by a mile and allowed the next two to float b. "Then it happened. Max mauled the next ball on the beak and Straight toward the fence in. right center It tracled stiaight toward that mob we hardly could see. Oakcs and Jimmy Savage hotfooted it after the ball, but no one thought either could reach It. I, : , By WILLIAM n.

How Max Flack Won Game and Became a Hero rOTH players Oakes and Savage raced on. Chicago's two men on -Dbase did likewise. One Crossed the plate and the other was rounding third when Oakes got under the ball. It was a sure out. and the Pitts burgh fans breathed easier, for it was too dark to play any more. But it happened again, the same as today, only Flack was on the other end of the play and emerged a hero instead of a bum. '"Oakes, with hands outstretched, was about to gtab the pill, when a happy thought struck him. He would see if he could take one more step just to make sure of the catch and also keep out of the crowd. He took a hasty glance at the mob and that was his undoing. In the darkness he lost the ball, and when he found it again it was on the ground. The pellet had struck his glove and bounded out. Two runs scored on the play, and when Zwilllng. the next batter, cut a liner into the crowd, Biennan forgot 'there was a fou. line and called it a fair ball. That scored some moie runs. Pittsburgh, playing in pitch darkness, couldn't get a man to first base in the seventh- and the game was o er. ' r "That's how Max Flack won the pennant for Chicago, for thej gave him a two-base hit on OakeS's slip-up. Ho looked good to A eeghman that day in 1913.
