Figures on Final.

Getting down to real baseball hg-
ures the Nationals staged a big in
ming in the secohd when Mule"
Watson went bad. Clyde Milan
said his farewell to local fandom
by a clean hit to center and ad-
vanced on Burns miscue. The Ten
nessee Flyer romped over on
Schulte's double into the circus
seats in right field. When Shanks
attempted to advance Schultz he
was recorded with beating out an
infield hit.
Watson loaded the bases by pass
ing both Picinich and Shaw. and
Bert Shotton cleared the bases with
two-base crash to center field
Lavan's double in the fourth, along
with an infeld out and steal OF
home, gave the Nationals another
run.
Dugan's error of Shanks' grounder
I'm the sixth was responsible for the
locals sixth tally. Lavan advanced
him to third on an infield hit from
which base he scored when Picinich
forced Johnny at the midway station.
After one was out in the seventh
Judge beat out a tap to Dykes and
easily stole second base. Johnson
flew out, but Schultz crashed his
second double to right field and Judge
dented the pan with the Nationals
seventh tally.
Altrock's freak home run came in
the eighth. when with two out and
no one on Mack's infield and outfield
pulled the act OF "Over the fence is
out" The veteran southpaw did not
ask for this, as his slashing drive into
the right-field stand granted him two
bases. but he kept going and reached
the home plate with what is the final
circuit count of the season. OF course,
Uncle Nick never touched third base,
but Umpire Billy Evans did not wish
to see anything today and passed
up the bet as this was the Nationals
final tally.
The Athletics punched four hits of
Shaw's delivery in the second frame,
but there was no scoring, as Clyde
Milan cut Burns down at the plate
on one Of the greatest throws that
that he has made in his career, on
Dugan's single. Dykes blow was a
high bounder in front of the plate.
and Perkins attempted to score, but
was cut Down on a fast relay from
Shaw to JLdSe to Picinich.
In a wild streak developed by the
Pittsbur Sh Stcgie, the Mackmen m1L-
aged to push one over; a base on
balls to Jameson, followed by Kopps
sacrifice hit and Fosters error put
Jimmy at the far corner. from which
base he scored when Hank Shanks
booted Burns offering.
Johnson's miscue OF Acosta's fly
follow McAvoy's double to left field
gave the Mackneu their first in the
sixth. McAvoy went to third on Per-
kins' infield out and counted when
Dykes doubled to left. The score:

JIM VAUGHAN WILL TWIRL
FIRST GAME FOR CHICAGO

New York. Sept. > - Big Jim
Vaughan will be the Cubs twirIer in
the first game of the world series
According 20 word received from
Pittsburgh tonight, Mitchell has
openly made the statement that
Vaughan will be called upon first and
followed Thursday by Left Tyler.
Mitchell is also expected to use the
same two southpaws in the first two
games at Boston. Hendrix will prob
ably twirl the third Chicago game.
Although Barrow has given out no
hint as to what he intends to do in
the way of pitchers, in view OF
Mitchell's announcement. it is ex-
pected that he will start Ruth or Mays
in the first game. The last games in
which either took part were at Fem
way Park. in the Philadelphia series
last week. Ruth pitched Saturdays
game and held the Mackmen to three
safeties. while Mays performed the
iron-man stunt by winning two from
the Athletics on Friday. 1t is still
contended by some that Barrow will
use Jones, a right-hander, against
Vaughn.
Mays would probably be the most
logical choice for the first game. His
underhand delivery and battling tao
tics have been pretty effective of
late If Mays goes in the box he
will probably attempt to keep the
Cubs. guessing by a mixture of fast
balls which have a tendency to pull
in over the plate for left-handers
and shoot out for the right-handed
sluggers. coupled with his slow ball.

of the 'underhand delivery, which
makes it appear fast

SChang did the back-stopping. Miller
also went to center to replace Strunk
in the second Fame. Jones took the
measure of slim" Love- the ace of
the Yanks' Pitching staff. In the Sec
ond, while Dubuc finally yielded a
tally in the last half OF the ninth and

assistant. have been squirting their
players on and they are not only in
perfect physical condition now. but
they seem endowed with that same
indomitable Red Sox spirit which
has won the championship for Bos-
ton in the five worlds series con-

part
Before the game started here to-
day every Red Sox player was out
on the field and they did some
mighty pretty work. II was prob
ably the last practice they will have
before tuning up for the big games
in Chicago, The team will arrive
there some time tomorrow evening
and the men will make their first
appearance at the White Sox park
shortly before the game starts We'd

However the fact that the team will
be deprived of practice UP to the last
minute will be of very little conse-
quence as Barrow and Wagner have
already taken that part into consid-
GRAFTON. They lost no time in Boston
during their recent home stay to con-
dition the men and to fight off the
staleness which some writer's have
accused the Red Sox players of con-
tracing.
Mitchell will have the advantage
again in the matter Of last-hour
training. The Cubs will arrive home
from Pittsburgh tomorrow morning
and probably will canter over the
White Sox park in the afternoon to
familiarize themselves with all the
peculari'ies of the lot to study the
light and shade and the way In which
hits will glance off the outfield walls.
