Winners in Cubs Game,
But oh, HOU They Finish!

Try to Subdue.

Stockyards gazelles.
Judging from their class OF conduct
on our Polo Grounds yesterday, this
Chicago outfit is composed of rough
and tumble untamed grizzlies with a
dash of wildcat.
DID you ever get all dressed up
some sunshiny day. say. in a brand
new pale blond suit OF clothes and all
the hxings, so that you knew your
self In your heart to look a sure win
ner and then step Off the curb Just
as some buzz wagon lurched along
through mud puddle and spattered
you from your new silk socks to the
top Of your new straw roofing with
gobs of black, oily, smelly goo2
If so, or IL you can imagine how
you would feel IL the like Of such a
thing happened to you. you will he
mDle TO sympathize to a degree any
way with the feelings of your Coogan
Bluff representatives yesterday.
For when the curtain lifted they
certainly looked like winners. You'd
have almost been willing to 'sw ear
that the game was all boxed up and
sealed and ready to be delivered TO
the record of Giant victories.
Well, now wouldn't, when after
having smartly held the Cubs hiuess
in the first inning, we go gathering
off to start like this:
George Burns slapped the first ball
over the third bag for a double.
Beauty Bancroft does exactly the
same thing and scores George. Pep
Young sacrifices, sending Beauty to,
third. frankie Frisch drives a crack
to centre that bounces off the out
stretched glove OF Paskert and rolls
for a full three Dagger, shooting the
Beaut across. Kell copied the pill
for a slashing single to righc and
scored Frankie. But Kauff then
popped into a double play, short to
second to first. But three runs right
on the getaway looked all TO the
strawberry jam, I'm telling you. And
a twirler like Tyler X. O.'d of the
box. He was chased after kells
drive, and Carter was handed the job
of holding the McGraw's bunch DOWN.
Some Jack the Giant Killer, this bird
We were only to get one run Cut Of
him in the following eight innings.
Though IL looked at that 'time-the
seventh inning-as II perhaps we'd
return slaughter for slaughter. Again
Burns led otf-thls time with single.
Beauty popped, but Young raped it
safely to right, and Terry at second
fumbled frankie Frisch's red hot
crack. Kelly sacrificed with a fly to
Flack, scoring George easily after
the catch. Ben Kauff walked, filing
the bases. Then McGraw called
Larry Doyle in from the coaching
box at first and sent him out to bat
for Sticking. Larry accepts the OPP
portunity gladly, and 1t was just dog
gone hard luck that he didn't shoot
across q. star crack. He smashed the
first ball sent to him for n low drive,
Just n foot to the left of second base;
Hollocher, Cub short, nipped it Just
as II would have touched the ground
and bounced out OF his reach. And it
was our last chance, too, to get on
a possible even footing with the Cubs.
They had eight runs by the seventh.
They had chased RUDE Benton of the
slab and gave Barnes even a worse
clouting.
They began slicing down that three
run lead in the third when Flack
foggeA the bulb to the right field
fence for a homer, and crept up an
other notch in the fourth when
