Apparently Larry Cheney's splitter was
frightened to death at the unusual sight
OF $4,000 persons packing the generally
empty seats in the Ebbets Field Stadium
yesterday. for 1t kicked plumb over the

Robbie's big right handler.

baseball on the part OF the Phillies that
caused victory to perch on the stalwart
shoulders Of Alexander the Great.

But. fortunately for Alexander. Che
ney's splitter was on such wofully bad
behavior that II more than counterbal-
anced the ineffectiyeness OF Alcck and
the shakiness of his defence. Then the
great and only Buck Wheat. pride of all
Brooklyn, had TO contribute one of the
few errors he makes out In the port past
ure. and Whcat's misdemcanor further
discounted the Dodgers and enthused
the Phillies.
Both Teams Unsteady.
1t was not a great ball game; II was
not a good game. Neither team played
anywhere near the article Of baseball IL
was capable of. The tenseness OF the sit
uation apparently had both outfits up in
the air. Each was unsteady. OF the

Cheney was the steadier, but the won

and an analysis OF the play would tend
to make Brooklyn the fayorite for the

Thc incorrigibilIty of Cheney's splitter
was responsible for six OF the eight Phil
