CHICAGO STAGES come BACK AND TAKES THIRD GAME OF SERIES
HOLDS HARD HITTING REDS
: To THREE SCATTERED HITS AND
HURLS FIRST. SERIES SHUTOUT

CHICAGO, Oct. 3.-The Chicago
White Sox today served notice that
they were still in the worlds cham
pionship contest by defeating Cincin-
natl 3 to 0.
The series now stands: Cincinnati
2; Chicago 1. Six more games are
possible, unless one of the contestants
should annex five victories without
going the limit.
Dick Kerr, who in his younger days
was something of boxer as well as
a ball player in st. Louis, and who
came to the Sox from Milwaukee,
pitched unbeatable ball, allowing on.y
three scattered hits and one pass 10
first. Kerr's home is at Paris, Texas,
and he first played professional base
ball at Paragould, Ark.
He made everybody sit up and look
at him today, for his left wing con-

who also hurled a good game, and
Kopf were the only Reds to obtain
bingles off the Texan, while his sole
complimentary passage to first was
granted to Groh. None of these ats
letes ever reached third.
Twenty-Five thousand persons,
which included band of rooters from
Cincinnati, saw the game, which was
played beneath a bright sun In =

trouncing which the American leass
uers received at Cincinnati, Manager
Gleason felt particularly gratirreu
that his team was the first to serve
a shutout. There were a few vacant
seats in the left field bleachers, prob
ably due to the belief on the part OF
many that obtaining seats would en-
tail too great a struggle. Grounm
rules were unnecessary, as the PLAY
ing field everywhere was clear save
just off the first and third base foc,
lines.

Fisher allowed seven hits and issued
two passes. Two of the Sox runs,
however, were largely chargeable TO
