enlargement.
The lone run of the game came in
the fourth inning, the result of
Vaughan's first base on balls, White
man followed with a single that put a
runner, Dave bhean, on second, and
Stuffy McInnis drove him across with
a one base blow to left field. The play
was close at the plate but Shean slid
under Killifer as he switched the ball
from the air.
The Cubs had two excellent oppor-
t~unities to score. In the first inning
they filled the bases through singles
by Mann and Paskert and Merkle's
base on bells, but Pick lifted a fly to
Whiteman. In the sixth Paskert and
Merkle singled with one out but Pick
and Deal both failed.
All credit is due Ruth for the Red
Sox victory, but he was backed by
some great fielding on the part of
Everett Scott.

conveying the demand that France sur

to to find the key.
While Justin de Selves, Foreign Min

brought on the conflict which resulted
in the resignation Of the Caillaux Cabi-

its cipher was no longer secret.
The new cipher was so compli-
Gated that the French Cryptographic
bureau has only just succeeded in un-
ravelllng it. The expectation now is
that other important dispatches will
be deciphered.
