REpLAND. FIELD, CINCINNATI,
ohio Oct. S.-ChicaSo's White Sox
faced their supreme test today on
Redland Field.
Faced by an adverse games score OF
ITO 2. but fortified by the belief that
tl,ev had recovered their collective
hatting eve and the psychological eff
feet OF having come from behind Tor q
victory yesterday. the Sox were ready
| for the test.
me Reds need one more game to
give them formal possession OF the
proud title of worlds champions over
confident yesterday when to all In
tents and purposes the big plum al
ready seemed theirs, the Moranites &C.
cording to Pat himself had come BACK
10 earth to face realities.
Slim Sallee, it was expected was to
shoulder the pitching responsibility
for the Reds and Eddie Cicotte, twice
| beaten, was ready for third start Tor
| the Sox.
Gleason's men yesterday welded ef'
fectiye bats against Ruether and Ring
whom they were totally unable to hit
last week. Finding themselves unable
10 drive out base hits against other
pitchers who had previously beaten
them the Sox seemed confident they
would reverse the result on Sallee
today. They hit the tall left handler
for ten hits on first appearance,
but mastery control carried him
through tight places.
Both clubs appeared on the field
early today. When Kid Gleason
walked out behind his men, the band
played What's the matter with
| father?' and the kid waved his hand
and grinned.
The Reds spent more time thar
usual at their batting practice.
At the game time the stands were
not much more than half filled. Un
certainty as to the way tickets would
be old-announcement of the sale
having been made. only last night
was believed 10 be responsible for the
comparatively poor turnout 1t was
suggested also that possibly the pub
lie had not entirely approved the
scheduled. nine game series.
