The team work of Mrs. Mallory and

semi-final match with apparent ease.
Miss Goss's good volleying was also
feature Of the first match. Murray was
not playing In his old time form, but his
serving and backhand strokes were good.
Mrs. Weaver played frequently to the
net in the final match and used poor
judgment in her placements at times,
but made a number of good shots in the

A feature of Mathews playing was his

CHICAGO, Oct. 4.-Cincinnati's base
ball hopes. which had been bit
dimmed by the defeat of yesterday,
once moro rose to the highest pitch
this afternoon. Again 1t was pitcher
who played the stellar role In the
triumph of the champions Of the Ma
tiona League. Led by Jimmy Ring.
who was born, bred and developed in
Brooklyn. the Cincinnati club defeated
the Chicago representatives Of the
American League in the fourth game
OF the worlds series at Comiskey Park
by score of to o. Ring allowed the
White Sox three hits.
The triumph was the third credited
to the Reds and as the White Sox have
won only one game and will be called
on to face Walter Ruether's ruthlessness
again tomorrow, the chances of the
Chicago team are not regarded very
highly in even the most sanguine OF
partisan circles in this city.
For the second time In the series
Eddie Cicotte, the far heralded pitching
hero of the Chicago team, was called
on to face the Cincinnati batters, and
for the second time he went down with
only himself to blame for the defensive
shortcomings of his team. Two errors
were charged against the White Sox
and both were chalked up against
Cicotte. Both came in the fifth inning
which saw the Reds score their tive
runs, and both counted heavily In
assisting the Red runners across the
Mate.

It was a sad afternoon for the master
OF the shine ball. whose mechanical
skill and cunning had been expected to
be the Chicago clubs greatest assets
in its battle with Pat Moran's men.
AS far as his pitching went Cicotte
worked skilfully enough to win almost
any ball game He allowed only FIVE
hits and did not yield pass. But
those errors were nightly costly.

proven his worthiness to take part In
the baseball classic.- Ring never before
had worked in an event OF so great i'm
portance and with no much Ringing on
the result, but at all times he was as
cool as cucumber on ice.
Not for an instant, even In the few
Instances in which the White Sox
threatened to make trouble, did the
Brooklyn man show that he was fius-
tered or that his confidence had been
impaired. He knew that he had his
opposition at his mercy and he worked
away with exceeding skill, imparting as
he did so a companion confidence to
his teammates.
