MERkLE DISCUSSES SERIES.
Says Giants Were Very Confident Aft
or Winning First Game.

Fred Merkle, the Giants first base
man, declares that the Athletics did
not get wise to the Giants signals in
the recent worlds series. "Chief My
ers went right along in every game
calling for the balls he wanted ab :
paying no attention to the Athletics
apparent plan to make them believe
they were getting everything flashed"
said Merkle. Getting the signs is a
distinct part OF Mack's attack and his
club follows the system more closely
than any other team in the majors. But
it is no difficult matter to cover up
signals, and we did that by observing
a little caution. We got the bas.
breaks In the series. and I think that
our failure to connect with the luck
element gave the champions the edge.
That was especially true in the final
game Philadelphia hit at everything
that WAS sent plateward, and 1t seem
ed as though every ball that was hit
dropped into safe territory. Most OF
US were Off our stride. Bender, Coom5s
and Plank dished me up the sort Of

pitch to our weaknesses at all: they
