PLANK MAY RETIRE,

The worlds series concluded Satur- day may mark the passing of the vet eran Eddie Plank, for he has desired to drop out of the game for several years ana has only continued at the per sonal solicitation of Manager Mack
 Plank was born at Gettysburg in 1874 and entered Gettysburg college in 1900. Even in those days he felt the pitching prowess of Christy Math- ewson, for during the time he was the leading twirler of his varsity team Gettysburg met the Bucknen college nine on the diamond.

Plank has never shown any desire to wander far from his own freside,' and today owns two large farms near Gettysburg, Pa, his birthplace, and spends all his spare time there. He las wearied of the diamond strife and is anxious to set tie down If Mack can persuade him to return to Shioe park and don a playing uniform next spring it will be but another example of the wonder full hold that the tall leader has over his players. according to the Athletics who carried Plank off the Polo Grounds field on their shoulders late Saturday afternoon.

ATHLETICS WIN CHAMPIONSHIP
Eddie Plank Outptches Mahewson in Final Game of Worlds Series-Score to O-Gants Held to Two Hits by Philadelphia Veteran

New York, Oct 12-The PhiIadel- phia Athletics won the baseball cham pionShip of the universe for 1913 at the Polo Grounds Saturday afternoon by defeating the New York Giants to l in the fifth and deciding game of the worlds series.
 With the score of games standing three to one in their favor the Ameri- can league representatives went in to clinch the series, and before the mas terly playing of the Mackmen the National league players had absolute ly no chance. Connie Mack, anxious to finish the struggle on the final day of the week. sent Eddie Plank, his vet eran SOuthpaW, to the mound, and John McGraw, his back tC the wall, called up n ChTisty Mathewson to check the victorious rush of the Athletics. an thus gain for his team a breathing spell
 Veteran Against Veteran.
 Both old masters of the curve and break responded nobly to the call of ther manager and club, but the Gi- ants, unable to help Mathewson by even nidiucre hitting, fell victims to the vicious putting. fast fielding com bination which has again raised the standard of the American league over that of the National The play was personal triumph for Plank, but the downfall of the Giants carried no odl- uD for AatbeEson, whoe besides pitch ing an excellent game with but two days of rest since his victory of We'd nesday, Jnad de one of the two hits SCOT ed against his rival in the box
 Matty FaEtered Early.
 Mathewson did not respond as promptly to the demands made upon him as did Plank and lacking that wonderful offense an6 defense sup port which the Athletics accorded to their twirler, faItered just enough in the opening innings oI the game to give the MackInen a lead that the Giants were pOwerless to overcome As was the case in all the games Of the series but Fridays the top half of the Philadelphia club batting order hi heavily when hits meant runs Math- ewsOn faced a determined club swing ing aggregation from the first moment he st tepped int. the box. and before he could get his muscles and curves work ing smoothly tine game had been won.
 Eddie Murphy Starts the Work.
 Eddie Murphy, the first batter to stand al the plate drove Mathewson's $ initial pitch through short for sin gle. Oldring attempted to sacrifice, but forced Murphy at second. Col lins came through with a single to right putting O1dring on third, Burns caught Bakers line fly but the throw -o the plate was too high for even the towering Mclean. and Oldring slid across with the first run while Mclean was still in tue air.
 Not satisfied with this the Athletics in two more runs in the

third. Murphy again ouened the in nine, with a single through short. Old ring followed with 8, smash at Doyle, who fumbled, and the batter was safe, while Murphy scampered to second. Collins sacrificed the runners along base each. Baker dribbled Cincin- nati base hit at Merkle, who tried for the batter and then for Murphy at the plate missing both as q consequence, McInniS then scored Oldring from third with a sacrifice fly to Burns and the Athletics run making was at an end
 Giants Score in Fifth.
 The National league champions only activity in the game was in the fifth inning, when they got their first hit and only run through an excusable error by Plank Buns sent a hot liner into the hands of McInnis, which he held. Plank had difficulty in get ting the ball over the plate for Shafer. and as a result the Giants center-
 fielder was the first of the New YorI: team to see first base, getting pass. Murray here lifted high fly to tho infeld. Barry and Baker ran in to get it, but Barry stopped to let Baker make the catch. Plank barely moved from the box and was set for the catch as Baker dashed into him, also endeavoring to get the ball. As a re- suit of the nix-up Plank dropped the ball and Murray was safe on first and Shafer on second. Had either Baker or Plank held the ball double play would have been completed, ending the inning, as Shafer was speeding past second when the error was made.
 Athletics Field SensationalIy.
 If the Athletic infileders hear it. they did not permit the bedlam to in- terfere with baseball. Merkle drove humming grouHder at Collins who snapped it up and tossed to Barry, forcing Mclean at second. Without a moments hesita ton Barry flashed the ball to McInnis and Merkle was out by a step. It was one of the Ath- letics double plays that cut down opponents at a critical time in the game, and it spelled the finish of the Giants as worlds series contenders then and there. From that poil. Plank and the players back of him were never in trouble The two run lead grew more formidable as the game progressed and many of the fans began to leave the park at the end of the seventh inning, realizing that the end was in sight But for Bakers over agerneSs Plank would have been credited with pitching a one-hft mo- run game. but when the last Giant Vas out Plank elated with his stls, cess. did not bother to QuibbIe about such little details. I was enough for him that he had won.
 Plank could well afford to be mag unanimous. for he proved to be the hero of the championship series and may decide before another baseball season rolls around to retire on his
