friends, following the victory of the
Cincinnati team over the Giants yes

ITS a great day for Cincinnati. We
won the pennant with the best team
in the league. Pat Moran deserves

world series till 1 recover from the
joy due to winning the pennant," Mr..
Hermann said.
In recognition of the extraordinary
work done by the Cincinnati club the
chamber of commerce has planned an
elaborate program as tribute to the
players. September 27 is the day set
for the testimonial, when the Chicago
Cubs will be the opponents at Redland
Field.

over" said Manager Moran of the
Reds. "I am proud of my boys; they
fought every inch Of the journey and
did not put on the brakes for an in

diction on the world series, but I can
assure" the fans that the Reds will
play the same kind of ball against the
White Sox as they did in the National
League, and I think that brand will
win anywhere.

Giants was over. Nearly all the New

Chairman Hermann calls attention
