WHO WILL Be
HERO OF SERIES?
In Every Worlds Contest Some
Stars Playing Has ShOne.
LAST YEAR IT WAS BAKER.

Two Homo Runs by Athletics Third
Baseman Had Much to Do With
Giants Defeat-HiStory of Those
Who Have Starred.
Not the least interesting feature Of
the worlds series Of the past has been
the flashing of some star or stars In
the armament Of baseball. Dopists al
ways find a considerable amount of
pleasure not to say interest, in Won
dering who will be the next star that
will dazzle a multitude and sparkle for
a nation.
In the first worlds series. played be-
in 1908. it was Bill Dineen. The lat
ter's great work in the box practically
captured the honors for Boston In
1905. when the New Yorks defeated
Philadelphia for the premier honors of
the diamond. Billy Gilbert's great bat
ting and Christy Mathewson's brilliant
pitching were the features. In 1906
George Robes work at third. and par
ticularly at the bat, made the Chicago
Americans victory certain over the
Cubs Frank Isbell OF the Chicago
White Sox was another to shine that
year. 1t was his four two base hits in
the fifth game OF the series that helped
TO put the Cubs to rGut.
OLeary and Rossman of the Detroits
were the heroes of the Tiger games in
1907. In 1908 Johnny Killing of the
Chicago Cubs was the big show; in
1909 1t was Pitcher Babe" Adams of
the Pittsburghs. His great work in the
box enabled the Pirates to defeat De-
troit. In 1910 CoombS, Bender and
Baker of Philadelphia divided the
hono-s.
Last year Baker Of the Athletics was
the hero. His two home runs In the
series with the Giants will always be
remembered by the fans. In the first
game he fell down when n hit would
have meant run, but in the second
game at Philadelphia he broke up the
battle with a home run over right field
fence, with a man on base. In the
third game at New York, with one
down and the Athletics one run behind
in the ninth, Baker planted the ball
into the bleachers and brought In the
tying run.
Now that the Giants and Boston Red
Sox are to play for the premier base
ball honors, who will be the hero?
OF course no one can dope It out, but
many experts think that it will be Joe
Wood of Boston or JEFF Tesreau OF the
Giants. Though, no doubt. the two
twirers will do some fine mound duty.
it does not necessarily mean that one
of the pair will turn out to be the hero.
Some other player may spring into
eternal fame. Who will 1t be7
