his long chin with the other. When
the seventh inning arrived and not
a Philadelphia player had been able
to get further than second base,
except in the first round, the willy
manager began putting IN his pinch
hitters, but Wood moved them down
as fast as they stepped 10 the plate.
The seventh and eighth inning
passed leaving only goose eggs in
their wake, and then came the ninth,
the last chance for the Athletics The
top of the batting list was up. The
first two men died on infield ground
ers but Eddie Collins smashed a two
base hit between Speaker and Hoop
er. The Quaker delegation jumped
and yelled like mad. The great FRANK
sluggers in the business, walked 70
the plate and the din increased.
Baker waded into the first ball pitch
ed and drove it high and far into
right field. 1t bore all the earmarks
Of a home run, but Harry Hooper,
who was playing a deep field for the
batter backed up against the con-
crete masonry and, jumping high In
the air just as the ball came sail
ing overhead, speared 1t with his
gloved hand.
The Red Sox had won the first game
in the play off Of the triple tie.
Late that night the Chicago
White Sox and their supporters, one
thousand strong, rolled into the Grani
Central depot, The players were hus-
tied to their hotel and sent to bed
but the Windy City rooters invaded
Broadway and gave a demonstration
Of how they do things in Chicago.
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1913-06-27

Early next morning they met at the
headquarters of the Chicago club and
each man was presented with a little
cane, on which was fastened like a
banner a long white silk stocking
(adies' style). There had been or
dered by Comiskey by telegraph As
soon as the Chicago delegation was
supplied with these emblems, it took
Broadway again. and soon that cele-
brated thoroughfare, in the vicinity
Of Forty second street, was a wav-
ing field of white.
But enthusiasm does not always
win ball games, although some times
1t helps a lot. The White Sox met
the Athletics in the second game Of
play off that afternoon, and, despite
the frenzied roofing of their supper
tiers, they lost to the Mackmen, 70
8. Manager Callahan, holding Big
Ed Walsh in reserve to go against
the Red Sox on the following day, es-
sayed to beat the Athletics with some
of his other pitchers. Scott was Sc
lected to start the game against the
men from Philadelphia. 1t was no
fault of this pitcher that the White
Sox lost. 1t was the rocky support
he received. The errors were enough
to drive a temperance orator TO
strong drink. Manager Callahan was
like q wild man as he watched his
players throw the game away. Be
tween his objection he would fran
tically kick up the Polo Grounds sod
and call upon all the Roman gods
to witness the kind of ball his men
were playing.

The season Of 1912 had developed a
sensational race toward the close Of
the season, but this one was even
more sensational The Western clubs
Of the league made the rounds Of the
Eastern cities on their last trip Of
the year. The Chicago White oox
played four games with the Athletics
at Philadelphia on September 3, 10,
II and ~ and won three OF them. On
September 20 they opened in Boston
and won two out Of the three games
played. These successes put them
closer than ever to the two leaders.
The pennant race was like a shell
game. No one knew where the pea
Of victory would be found until the
final games were played
On September "a the Athletics ar
rived in Boston for their last series
Of the season with the Red Sox. II
either team won four games the 9TH
err team would be practically out OF
the running, as there was differ
ence Of only one game between the
teams. The Athletics won the first
game with Eddie Plank pitching but
lost the next three, ana when the
series ended the two teams were tied
for the lead. The White Sox, in the
meantime had won three out of -four
of the games they had played and
were barking at the heels OF the two
leaders

Do you think it would be right If

The girl is too young to marry,

Advice to the LoveIorn
NO.
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
- l have been going with a man
for the last four months. He told
me that he liked me, but never
tells me that he loves me. He
often fiirts with other girls, even
when he is with me. Do you think
he cares for me? s. NJ.
No man cares for a girl if he flirts
when in her presence with another
girl Neither does he respect her.
Don't fret if you take my advice
and give him up. You will miss a
lot of heartaches that come to every
woman who marries a man weak
enough, silly enough. vain enough and
tickle enough to fiirt.
