Incidentally, this is the nth consecu-
tive time that the Yankees have handed
the Apathetics the rawsberry, though
they did not pass IL out any too en-
thus iastically. There is one more game
20 run in this series. and II the Yankees
can take this one also, Colonel RUPERT
and Cap Huston Will be more than ever
convinced that New York in the sum
mer time possesses . most sa.ubrious
climate.
Mathematically. the Yankees had no
right 10 the game, for their pitchers
were walloped TO the four corners.
Among the injuries inflicted upon Nick
Cullop were a homer by Amos Strunk
and a three-bagger by Ping Bodle.
They carried Mex out limp in the
eighth. Slim Love lasted ten seconds
fiat, and Robert Shawkey, the champion
golfer. finished the game for the Yanks.
One theory Of the engagement is that
the Apathetics might have won, but
hesitated 70 try the unusual They
feared that the sudden surprise of a
victory might have been too much for
Cornelius Macg. icuddy, who has never
been the same man since he saw Ping
Bodie Dlav third base.
