Tyler's Great Work En- ables Chicago Boys to Even Results With Bos- tonians.

Chicago, Sept. 7.---George Tyler, once pet of the Boston Braves, aided Jby one big Chicago inning, placed yesterdays worlds. championship game in the lap of the Chicago Cubs, who turned back the Red Sox, to 1. With the big series one to one the i interest here last night was infinitely greater than it appeared to be after the initial contest.
 Joe Bush was picked to beat back the Cubs in yesterdays wrangle. He failed. His famous bullet ball failed to bother the National League cham pions and nothing but fine defence held the score O fthe winners down to three tallies.
 Chicago busted" things open in the second session, when all of her tallies went across the plate. During this inning the Boston fielders were in deep trouble. In the language of the under team, the Cubs got a big bunch of breaks all at once. Bush worked too hard on Fred Merkle. the opening batter in this session, and sent him to first on balls after getting three and two
 Pick, the next batter, dropped (linky one in the direction of third. Thomas leaped after it, but it took an elusive jog just as he was about to pick it up It rolled outside of third and went as a, hit.
 Chuch Deal was openly out of bunt, but Bush put 'em high and not too close Chuch fouled off pair and with two strikes against him he swung. Shean took his easy fly.
 1,1o ra1 at pitchec.r and sent it sailing into far right field just inside the foul line. It was good for two bases, and Mer- kle counted on the hit. Pick, how ever, held up at third, though it ap- peared he could have scored, as Hooper, throwing in, chucked the ball in the direction of second base.
 Tyler came up to bat and took one strike. The Sox infeld was drawn in close Tyler caught one in the groove and the ball went past Bush and out of reach of Scott into centrefield. Pick and Killifer fled for home and the count was three.
 Strunk made the throw to the plate to cut off Killifer but it did not reach. !Agnew snapped the pill back to sec ond and Scott tagged out Tyler, who ' could. These runs were greeted by the biggest racket of the series thus far.
 Flack delivered a single to first base McInnts got the ball far from the bag and hurried back. Bush did not have time to cover, so Stuffy made a slide for the sack, but Klem declared the play a hit. F'lack tried to steal second a moment later but he overslid the bag and was throwr out by Agnew, Shean taking the peg.
 With the exception of this eventfu Inning every session of the contest showed nothing but a goose egg, witf the exception of the Sox side of the ninth.
 In that final chapter Strunk banged out a triple and a moment later Whiteman duplicated the feat. Thit made things look pretty bright fol the sox for a brief period, but the! were soon eclipsed and the second game of the series was over with thu Cubs on top.
 Official figures show the attendance to be larger than that of the frs contest
 The Cubs deserved to win, but tn Sox were "close' enough to hav snatched the game away with fev switches in the breaks. On severa occasions it looked as if the Sox wer going to blast things open and sen, the enemy a-skylarking, but some thing always bobbed up to clog tn works.
