NEW YORK, Oct. 13.-Any time II
desperate guy Is backed up in Q corr
ner look out for d real fight. ThQXl
is just the position of the New yo13&
Giants. The odds are against ua
greatly against us--three games r.
one. but we will never strike our t1a1
till the last man is out In the lAG1|
inning Of the last game for the worlds6a
cham pionship, 4 4#
Luck has played against Us evefYK
day OF the series SO far. 1T has n
chance of playing either doubly 1o&s
nr against tts taday. Manager MeGFgNk
has ferreted out proposition th1&
may turn the tables In our favor. tt
rules under which this annual cla1g1
of the diamond is fought specificA131!
state that the scene of the seventh
game, il one Is necessary. must be dG%
cided by lot previous to the baGf13S5
ming of the sixth contest
Wherefore. If We have any luck r.
the cast. that tie game between MAx1
and Collins, Hall and Bedient, W1I
give us the advantage OF home in1fN&
ence for at least two games In r0i9&2
! provided we do not drop out OF IT,
| fight tomorrow. IN
/ May Toss Coin.
| McGraw will insist before the sta&&
| of tomorrow game upon ffippfnH
coin to decide the place of TuesdayX
/ battle, If one is necessary. McGraw h&&
lieves that 1t is possible to have an&
/ three remaining games. lie the sera@
should go to eight, contested at Hft3n
| Stadium. Should he win out for t1
seventh game it would still be n1G%
essary to toss fer the Anal. WINK
/ our manager had not consulted NM
the national commission on this pptA4
| ne has carefully studied the laws GoS
erning the worlds series. and decIaF
! that this august body has no riG31%

This is a point that McGraw has kef@
to himself and -pur players, AZ q =Aa0X
bomb for Jake Stahi and his legioS3
OF course. Boston may win tn
choice If McGraw carries his point
| But In any event McGraw has all n
=, gain and nothing to lose. / think wt6S
Will win tomorrow. and II We do t,9
people may just as well get ready f0S1
eight games Joe Wood and HueYl
Bedient are the only Red Sox pitches
who have beaten U.s. Bedient Il
young fellow. none too sturdy phyNfa
caily. and after his tough game VI
saturday. / do not believe he will II
able t. recuperate for further actto1
| Wood, of course, will have to b erfs
countered again. He had to be favosS
/ ed more or less by luck to get aWaS!
with his two games.
| Hopes for Wood.
Many Of the wise ones figure d.
Stahl will start his best bet axninaS
us tomorrow, with the hope OF To-
| minaung the series at once. I IT,
cerely hope he does start Wood
doubt If he can come back any tfr62
| this week as strong as he was in .fthx
OF his two starts. Certainly he cam
have the stuff today that he had FTS

look for another southpaw d.
tomorrow between 'Rube" MarQua(S
I and Kay Collins Hall, they tell q
I is still suffering from a severe cod
Marquard should have no great All

We catch Wood so much the better
