Special DISPATCH to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
DETROIT, Mich. September o1.-Larry
Gardner, the brilliant third baseman Of
the Boston Ked Sox, sustained a broken
finger today. If he is lucky in recovering
he may be in the worlds series. It hap
pened in the eighth inning, when Collins
had eased UP and was only lobbing item
grounder just inside the foul line at
which Gardner dived and got on the title
finger of his right hand. The fore joint
was snapped back as though it were a
match, and hung limp. A physician was
hastily summoned from the stand, and
put it in splints. Later it was bound up
with tape, SO that it will retain a right
position. and the physician thinks that in
this way Gardner may be able to get into
the game by the time his team faces the
Giants. He will be somewhat out of con-
dition. however, owing to lack of prac-
ice Owing to the fact that it is tn joint
itself that is fractured. Gardner may
have a permanently stiff finger. He says
it won't keep him out of the game, how
ever because he does not use the little
fingers in throwing or batting. Manager
Stahl bases his hopes of Gardeners en-
tering the worlds series on an experience
of his own, when the corresponding finger
of his right hand was crumpled up by a
hard hit. With the aid of splints and tape
he was back in the game in a fortnight.
Joe Sugden, who has more broken fingers
than any man alive, also says Gardner
will be able to play.
