 INTO WORLDS SERIES FAME
His Retiring of Six Basmen in Row By Srikeout Route Establishes New Re cord-Heavy Bats

thrown out at the plate had he tried to score. Groh, the next batter, walked on four straight balls. Roush fly. which was mutfed by felsch, should have been the third out and would have retired the side runless. Runs d Gift to Reds. Even had I'cIsch caught this ball after Goins his damage on Ellers hit the side would have been retired with only one run. Despite the fact that this play was credited to Roush as a triple, his second hit of the series, only the most liberal scoring could have called this is a three bagger. Even after msiudging the drive Felsch got both his hands on the bali before mu11ing it, though he was running then with his back to the stand. The two runs never should have scored on it. In his anxiety to pick up the fall Felsch slipped and fell and lost moro time.
 Collins, who took the relay, also was slow in throwing the ball home. The play was close on Groh, and Schalk was so angry that he made a dive at Rigler with his fists extend el and was put out of the game. Ray was the first player to be put out of a worlds series since Chance, man agcr of the Cubs, was put out in 1910.
 Schalk's attack on Rigler shows how much the Sox were up in the air, because the catcher usually is a we'll behaved athlete, who seldom loses his head. Lynn succeeded him. and on Duncan's hit to Jackson, Joe made a perfect peg home. The ball came to Lynn while Roush still was yards from the plate, but Lynn let it go through him. This was scored as a sacrifice fly by Duncan, but no one in the park knew better than Lynn that it was an error Byrd stood there sheepishly watching the run come in.
 Eller Sets Record in Strikeouts
 Eler famed nine of the White SoX sluggers. He struck out the entire side in the second and third innings, a new worlds series record
 EIler used his shine ball throughout but his delivery had more on it than a shine He had terrific speed, which with perfect control after the first inning, made him invincible. He just toyed with the mighty Sox maul- CTS. After striking out the side in the second and third he tossed out both Weaver and Jackson on infield taps in the fourth and then closed the round by flaming Felsch on three pitches. HOd went through the entire White Sox lineup, retiring all nine men him self
 Like Ruether, his distinguished teammate, Eller made a reputation as a hitter last season and he lived up to it yesterday. He hit around 300, and several times broke up games with long hits. A home run off Rube Benton enabled him to defeat the Giants in that great double header se- ries on the Polo grounds last August.
 EIlers Double Starts Rally.
 Yesterday it was Eller's long dou- Dle to left which opened the sixth inning and paved the way for the big. Red inning which completely upset the White Sox and threw their rooters into wild dismay. Eller found an oppon-' ent worthy of his mettle in little Claude Williams. the Sox lefthander
 The score of to 0 may show the difference between the Reds and the White SoX yesterday but it doesn't tell what valiant battle little Will Hams fought against his clever oppon- ent.
 For the second time in the series Williams lost four hit game, which comes pretty near being a hard luck record. And his game yesterday was almost a duplicate of his defeat in the second game in Cincinnati last Thurs day Only yesterday Lefty had better control and it seemed greater speed
 Triple Starts the Trouble.
 As in last Thursdays game it was a triple, following single and base on balls, which broke up his game. Only last Thursday <Opf hit triDIe which was clean, honest hit, whereas Roush's three bagger yesterday was a muffed fly on ball played wretchediv by Felsch. Oscar misjudged the fly, starting late for it, then dropped it after a run and then feli when he tried to pick it up.
 Three of the four hits made off Will
