RIVAL TEAMS POSSESS
BALANCED 0UTFIELDS
Best Matched Pair of Trios
Ever Pitted in World
Series Combat.

NEW YORK, oct 5.-The outfields
of clubs playing in world series form
the final lines of defense and much
depends upon the ability of the trio
of players in the short but classic
contest staged each season for the
baseball championship. Defensively
these outficldcrs must be fleet of foot,
sure catchers of long driven fly balls
and spinning groundcrs which have
penetrated through tho infield lines.
In addition they must possess Il pow
crful throwing arm, an accurate eye
for distance and direction and quick
but sound judgment regarding choice
of players when such emergencies
arise
Considered broadly the outfields OF
the Chicago Americans and the Now
York Giants which are to pit prowess
in the counting world series, meet these
requirements better than those of any
two teams which have met in similar
series IN some past seasons. There
may have been single trios which
classcd ~ high or higher, hut IL is eX-
iremely doubtful If two world series
clubs have entered the big clash in
many years more evenly matched I'm
high grade outfield combinations than
those of the White Sox and the Giants.
The records of the players for the
greater part of the season just closed.

LONE TOUCHDOWN
Tulsa Defeats BristOw in First
Game of Local Gridiron
Season.
BOTH TEAMS PROVE SLOW
Display Little Dash Until the
Last Five Minutes; Invad-
ers Spring Surprise.
BY BUD FISHER

For five minutes yesterday evening
the gridiron at Association park, Tulsa
and Bristow high school teams played
football. During that five minutes.
the last five of the time allotted for
their combat, the locals carried the
ball from their own five-yard line by
series of successful aerial passes,
sweeping end runs and hard line, bucks
tC the Brisrtw' eight YARD line Whence
Captain Hopping smashed thru off
tackle for the only touchdown of the
game and followed it by kicking goal.
During the last two of that last five
minutes, Bristow carried the ball
without losing IL after the kickoff, to
tho Tulsa twenty-yard line. There
with possible score in sight Hopping
intercepted a forward pass and the
game ended. During the remainder OF
the two hours consumed by the game,
there was little football displayed by
either team. The score was Tulsa-TF.-
Bristow 0.
To some of the more enthusiastic
Tulsans who had boasted of twenty
point margin before, the kickoff, the
game was a disappointment but ~
those who took into consideration the
fact that it was a green team with a

way to within the Tulsa ten-yard
mark.
As in the first period, old style play
was used almost exclusively during
the second, the first half ending with
the ball in Tulsa's possession on the
Bristow 1S-yard line.
Open Up in Last Half.
Both teams exhibited more open
attack In the second half. Bristow be-
ing especially successful in negotiating
forward filings and several times the
line or battle was close to both goal
lines.
The playing OF Sears, center. Cap

Both teams showed the lack OF
training and both proved that they
