The assemblage of fans appeared more

exciting moments of play. There was
plenty of cheering at these times, but
there was lack of the consistent root

run, following a similar feat by Rube
Benton yesterday, Schupp also
equalled for the Giants team, as
whole a double shutout which has
been scored few times since the be-
ginning of the present century. In
1908 the Chicago Nationals white
washed the Detroit Americans twice
in succession and in 1905 the Giants
of those days shut out the Phiiauel-
pnia Athletics four times out of five
while the only victory of the Mack
men was also a shutout by the In
dian pitcher, CHIEF Bender. Christy
Mathewson. now manager of the Gin
cinnati Nationals, and Iron Man" Joe
McGinnity were the New York Twill
ers who engineered the quadruple
of the Athletics.
kauff Gets First Hit
There was nothing to forecast the
sensational developments of today's
game in the early innings. For three
sessions it was a pitchers battle be-
tween Faber and Schupp with little if
any advantage on either side kauff
was the third man to face Faber in
the Giants half of the fourth, Burns
and Herzog having failed to make first
base With two out and his record of
not a hit in the series in thirteen times
at bat by-word among the fans, Kauff
was desperate.
With a ball and strike called
against him, he saw a perfect groove

thu eatened several times they never
got a runner beyond third base and
the American league team lef. for the
shores of Lake Michigan without
crossing the Polo Grounds home plate
in eighteen innings.
Schupp and kauff Star
Two new diamond heroes leaped
to pedestals of fame in the clash in
Coogans bluff today for Ferdinand
Schupp of Louisville, KY. turned the
White Sox batters back without Il
run; and Benny Kahff of Middleport,
Ohio, led the batting massacre with
two home runs.
The youthful left handler fully re-
deemed himself for the vicious sally
of the Chicago club in the second
game on their home grounds wher
the Comiskey park oatters dro, e
him from the mound early in the
series, while Kauff, after Is hitless
trips to, the plate, finally found his
batting eye and broke through Pitch
er Faber for a circuit drive which
paved the way for the Giants on
slaught that later was to demoralize
the White Sox. The effectiveness OF
Schupp's hurling and Kauff,s batting
was sufficient to defeat the Amer
lean League champions. but the
thrill of victory was contagious and
their teammates were only stride
behind them in the rush through the
White Sox trenches.
kauff Equals Old Record
Only twice in the long history of
world series baseball has Kauff's feat
of two home runs in one game been
duplicated. Before the former bat
ting leader of the Federal League
made his two circuit drives, the honor
was divided between Harry Hooper
of the Boston Americans Of 1915, and
Outfielder Dougherty of the same
club in 1903. Hooper hammered two
home runs into the bleachers in tins

two years ago against the Philadel-
phia Nationals, while in the ancient
days of the post season play Dough

Next Wednesday
Second Number of Lecture
Course A Big Feature.

A popular feature of the talk to be
given here on the Lyceum Course next
Wednesday evening Nov. 18th. by
Sergeant John T. Flahiff is the question
box he conducts at the close of his ad
dress. Sergeant Flahiff has just been
sent back by the doctors from the
battle-fields in France where he spent
seven months in the trenches with the
famous Princess Pat Regiment He
was in the great battle of the Somme,
in the Ypres salient during the heavy
fighting, and at Baupaume back Of
Vimy Ridge.
Mr.. Flahiff does not spend the eve
ming i'm an abstract discussion of the
war. its causes and probable results,
neither does he tell what should be
done to end it. He is simply a young
American boy who has been there and
tells in his unassuming way actual life
in the trenches. He tells what the boys
do from the time they start in training
until they have entered the front-line
trenches, gone lover the top" and are
back of the lines again after having
been relieved He tells nothing that
he doesn't know about, for in active
service on the western front as bomber
machine gunner, and stretcher-bearer
he has been through all OF it.
Sergeant Flahiff appears in the Cana
dian uniform and to clearly illustrate
his description he carries bombs, a gas
mask, and uses for background an
imitation trench. At the close of his
lecture he answers any questions that
his listeners may care to ask about the
technical end OF the actual fighting,
and he is always kept busy.
