BOSTON HOOTERS HOPEFUL

Boston, Sept. 10.-Cheerful conf dence prevailed today in the camp of the Red SoX followers as they pre- pared to watch what they firmly be- lieved would be the final game of the worlds series between the Boston Americans and the Chicago Nationals. Yesterdays thrilling contest placed Boston ini the lead three games to one.
 Among the players, however, there was no such assurance that the se- ries would end today. The cubs had los tnone Of their fighting spirit
 Manager Barrow planned to start Jones in the box for Boston today, holding Mays in reserve. Manager Mitchells decision as to the Chicago pitcher still was held in abeyance early in the day. It was figured that he would not be likely to send any of the men who had participated in the pre- vious games and the best guess was that the Red Sox would be called upon to face Hendrix, right handler.
 Tn the whole series up to today a right handler has appeared for Chicago in only one inning. That was tfrs eighth of yesterdays game when Douglas relieved Tyler

 With the count two and three Tyler looked over again at Mitchell and his eyes seemed to carry an appeal. but the grim faced leader of the Cubs made nary g. move. Tyler reached down for d handful of dirt and Babes hands Hghtened ConyulsiVely on the bat The ball came waist high.

 Tyler Prevents Homer.
 F'lacll did remarkably well to find the ball at all, which he did with as- tonishing speed. He relayed the pill to third and the ball would have landed in the Cubs dugout and Babe would have scored a home hun had not Tyler backed up the throw.
 Pick got on first in the fifth by means of a comical little fly, which 1toated softly over Ruth head put out of Shean's reach. The quick thinking Scott came in like a flash, pushed Ruth and Shean out of the way scooped the thing up and almost got Pick. Mitchell sent Ieider to bat for Pick and O'Farrell for Deal after MerlIe had hit two fouls in the seventh and then walked. A double play, Scott Shean- Mclnnis, retired th3 side after Ieider also had walked. McInnls singled in Boston's half of the seventh and Babe came up again.

Four Games Last Year.
HERE'S THE SAD TALE
 ALL IN \ NUTSHELL

G. "Lcfty" Tyler took the long chance on the BehemOth of Boston, Babe" Ruth yesterday, and the long chance failed. Shean possessed second and Whiteman first in that high string fourth for Tyler. The Derry citizen had given both men tickets to first.
 There were two out and the situation thus when the master buster, Ruth, assembled him. self with bat in hand at the plate. It was a tense moment. Tyler knew it. He hurled up three wide ones, then flung two strikes, which Ruth let go by. Would Tyler heave a curve or a fast one? Much doping.
 And "Lefty' elected to try and pitch one past the Babe. Then came a sharp crack, a roar of exultation as the ball sailed over Flack's head, and the Sox were in the lead with two runs in.

 Fine Weather For Game.
 The day dawned dubiously after a night of drenching rain. When mid afternoon came the sun was smiling now and again through patches of blue but the threat of returning showers had not passed and there was a chill in the air. However, as the game went on the clouds diap- peared the sun gathered strength and it turned out as lovely a September day as one could ask for.
