BRAVES V|CT0R|OUSOVER ATHLETICS
IN THIRD GAME Of WORLD SERIES

Once more has the unexpected hap
pened and once more has old age
bowed down in the inevitable surren-
der to youth and vitality The Bos-
ton Braves made it three straights
from the champion Athletics at the
Boston grounds today and thereby
practically cinched their claim on the
on the baseball championship of the
world. 1t was a great battle fought
under ideal conditions. The day op-
ened up fair and warm with Just
enough sting to the atmosphere to put
big chunks of fight into the anatomy
oil. both teams. And fight they did.
The game was anybody's from the
time play ball was called until the
third man was out in the twelfth in
ing. Twelve innings, Boston S, Ath-
letics 4. A sad tale for the grizzled
veterans of the Old guard of the Ath-
letics and a joyful one for the coming
Braves. Joyful, because it means
that the victorious Braves are within
one game of the honor which is the
goal toward which each team in the
major leagues is looking and hoping
someday to reach. The Athletics are
on the run; their defeat has turned
into complete route and it is doubt
tul II the series lasts any longer than
tomorrow when the fourth game of
the series will be played And today
there is new homerun wonder in the
big leagues and his name is not Baker
neither is he a member of the Ath-
ledcs. His name Is Gowdy, big Cow
dy of the Braves. For it was his cir
cult clout in the eleventh inning when
the score stood four to two against
his team, that started the rally which
ended in the dowfall of the Athletics.
To him all credit is due and he is to-
day the hero of the camp of Bean
Eaters.
The game started under the most
auspicious circumstances that could
be wished. The day was ideal and a
huge crowd had filled the huge grand
stand and bleachers at the National
League park. The batteries were an
nounced as Bush and Schang for the |
Athletics and Tyler and Gowdy for the |
Braves and the battle was on. And
such battle has not been seen in i
Boston in many years. First one |
team would have the advantage and !
then the other would tie it up. The
Phillies scored one in the first inning
and the Braves did the same trick in |

HON. FRANK WINTERS
MEMBER OF ASSEMBLY

The card of Frank H. Winter of
Jarbidge, a democratic nominee for
member of the assembly appears in
this issue. Mr.. Winter has served two
terms In the assembly and his record
as a legislator Is without flaw He
stood with Governor Sparks for the
enforcement of law and order during
the troublous times at Goldfeld. This
should win for him the support of all
who believe in the enforcement Of the
law and the maintainance of order
among our people.
He is interested in the Jarbidge
mines and has stuck to the camp since
1t was first discovered. He takes a
lively interest in state and county af.
fairs and promises to support all the
measures that will reduce expenses
without impairing the efficiency of the
state and county government. His
past record is guarantee that his
promises will be redeemed by his
votes. We ask for him the earnest
consideration of the voters of Elko
county.

BASEBALL HERO
IS A FATHER

Besides the pleasure CLEANED from
pitching his team to victory in the
first game. of the world series, Dick
Rudolph, pitcher of the Boston Braves
who won the first game in the series
with his famous slow ball, is the re-
cipient of greater piece of fortune
than the winning of that game, or at
least Rudolph thinks. The piece of
good fortune referred to, is a tiny
baby girl born at Rudolph's home in
the Bronx Saturday night and today
Rudolph is the happiest slow ball
artist in captivity. A double celebra-
tion of the advent of the little visitor
and Rudolph's victory over the Mack
men Is being planned by the twirler's

.ELKO GIRL MARR|ES
IN CALIFORNIA

The Evening Blade, of Oct. 8, pub
lished~ at Santa Anna, Cal, contains
the following notice of the marriage
of Miss Eva Thompson, a former Elko
girl:
Miss Mary Evlyn Thompson, win
some daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. John
w. Thompson, of 1921 West First
street. became the bride last evening
of R. Henry Carmichael, son of Mr..
and Mrs. Henry Carmichael and fore
man of the Evening Blade composing
room.
The marriage occurred at the
brides home, which was made beau
tiful with a profusion of pink and
white roses and lacy maidenhair
ferns. Rev. Rufus S. Chase, rector of
the Church of the Messiah, officiated
with the impressive ritualistic ring
service of the Episcopalian Church.
Miss Kate Stauts softly played
Lohengrin's wedding march, as the
bridal party entered. The bride was
attended by Miss Josie Stauts, who
was gowned in dainty pink silk and
the best man was the brides brother
Stanfield Thompson. The bride made
a pretty picture in her white crepe de
chine robe and carrying a bridal bou-
quet of fragrant white roses.
Many beautiful gifts were received
by the young couple and after these
were viewed, delicious three course
supper was served, the tables being
artistically decorated with roses and
ferns.
The bride has been here about a
year, coming with her parents from

| their half of the second. They each
scored a run in the fourth and then
no more runs were scored until the
eleventh when came the time which
has made Gowdy the hero of all Bos-
tonese. The Athletics scored two
runs in this inning by two hits and a.
stolen base and the hearts of all Bos-
ton went dead. 1t looked like their
chances had gone glimmering Just as
they had their best chance to win the
game. They came in for their turn
at the bat, however with grim deter
mination on their faces. Gowdy was
the first man up. He let good one
pass then two balls then drove the
pellet into the bleachers in deep right
for the circuit of the bases. Then
things happened SO suddenly that be-
fore the Athletics could recover and
rebalance their broken defense, an
other run had been pushed across the
plate and the score was tied. Then it
was the time of the Athletics to be
disheartened. They saw victory slip
ping from their grasp. And victory
on which hung their chance for an
other championship at their belts.
When they came in from their field
they saw another pitcher facing them.
And 1t was pitcher who struck fear
into the hearts of all Mack's crew. 1t
was, the redoubtable Bill James who
had just held them to two measly hits
on Saturday. And he lived up to his
reputation in that one inning of to-
days game by setting the Mackmen
down one, two, three. Then the
Braves made the rally that put them
one notch closer to the championship
OF the world. They came to the bat
with more confidence than they had
shown throughout the entire game and
proceeded to drive out the run which
gave them the victory. And 1t was
well-deseryed one. They had come
from behind in heart rending finish
when defeat stared them in the face
and had won out in the face of SEEM
ingly overwhelming odds.
The score by innings was:.

tons more than the turrets on the Ar

Perhaps nothing shows the superior

President Judge George Kunkel, OF
the Dauphin County Courts, was for
mally asked this afternoon by the
united bar of the county to become q
candidate for Justice of the Supreme
Court of Pennsylvania.
The request was embodied in a reso-
luton adopted by the entire bar In spe-
cial session, and in petition signed by
every practicing lawyer.
For months the sentiment among
members of the Dauphin bar has been
that Judge Kunkel should become O.
candidate and this has been power
fully supported by lawyers from many
counties of the State, who have been
here on the State cases which consti-
tute so large and important portion
of the work of the Dauphin bench.
This sentiment was expressed week
ago by James Scarlet, the famous Dam
vile attorney, who prosecuted the
Capitol cases so successfully, and in
which Judge Kunkel's course was
twice sustained by the Supreme Court.
In speaking with a reporter of the
