Everyone noticed how the Ath-
letics went after the first ball.
One of the team was asked why
they did not make Marquard
work instead of playing his game
for him and the answer cleared
the situation:
I'VE couldn't keep our
bats off the ball. We knew
everything he was pitching
and it was a question of how
soon we would get the ball
safe. We've got them
beaten before they start and
they don't know it,"

The Athletics, in the first
game, could not gauge Matty
when he used a high drop or his
fadeaway, although they knew
the ball would be a curve. When
they hit it was usually pop-up

clean drives. A thousand miles
away the Grays were doing the
same thing to their opponents.
On the second day the Blue Sox
lstill hitting like fiends, drove two
Red pitchers to the bench, winning
| by score of eleven to three. The
Grays won their last game by a
shut-out score. 1t was all up to
the final game.
Catterson, always an early riser
picked up the morning papers al
breakfast on the third day, and
thereby ruined his appetite. On
every sporting page he found an
article telegraphed from his home
town. 1t began:
Are the Reds throwing the pen
nant to Daily?
The afternoon newspaper men
followed hard on the trail. They
wanted to know what Manager
Catterson had to say, and when he
said what was in his mind they
found that they could not print it.
"This article mentions Hardy,
said one Of the reporters. Hes
known to be very friendly with
Ben DSly, and that may have
given rise"
Catterson exploded with a
mighty roar.
Something will give YOU a
rise in about three seconds!" he
said. "It will be this number thir-
teen boot of mine! Now, get out
of here!"
Naturally that young man, in a
two-column article, pointed out
that Catterson flew into rage
when questioned about the state
ment from his own town. The
Hardy incident drew a subhead,
and his friendship with Daily was
mentioned.
1t was an angry team which
trotted out for warming-up prac-
tice before the last game of the
season. Catterson had been read
ing the riot act to his men.
what if there amt a word of
truth in it? l know it, and you
know it, but If these fellows beat
us by a big score this afternoon,
We'll never hear the last of it.
Let's dig in and show 'em some
baseball"
When it came time to choose the
pitchers, Catterson picked Thomas,
a tall left-hander with slow puz-
IZling curves. Ben DAILY chose Cal
lahan as the one best bet. The
game opened with the Blue Sox
keyed up to- the breaking strain
and the Reds sullen and defiant.
Callahan whipped over a light
ning-fast strike on Moles, the fist
man to face him; great roar
went up from twenty thousand
rooters, and eighteen men settled
down to the final contest.

Aberdeen high has been unable to
