New Workers Have Won Nine
Out Of Last Ten Games,
Which Includes Opening Game
With Cubs at Polo Grounds.
By Charles SonlerUiILe.

Still sounds on coogan's Bluff tho
whoop and swoosh Of the Giants up.
ward swoopl
They laid the Cubs iOw--not with
the disgraceful disaster Of the closing
game by which the Reds were ratified
and rcughed---but down they went
anyway TO score OF . to l. with a
record Of nine games won out of the
last ten pleyed heah me, Rastus, dis
yer Napoleon McGraw has suah done
come back from Elba and am a.
marchin' fas' on Paris to git him back
his throne. Yassir!
Matter Of rdci. on figures. the Giants
nor stand a better ChOucc TO rin the
DeHHdHt IN their league than The
}dnhS il me American For the
Giants are oHip tour games behind tho
dodgers, rRiic the YOnkS are nosc
lobr ana a half games in the tGdke Of
he indians
But while IL is a horrible tail-spin
the lanks are taking, it isn't time yet
10 start collecting their life insur-
ancc. In spite OF the fact that their
only tally vest erday was bequeathed
by the Babe with his thirty ninth
homer. Here's hoping the 1920 record
to-day becomes fat, fair and forty
ana that it will figure in the column
Of the winning score.
Can YOU imagine what would hap
pen in the way of crowds il the
Worlds Championship battle should
present the Giants anu Yanks as con-
tenders? About twenty more tiers on
the Brush stadium grandStand might
accommodate a few OF the millions
who'd be climbing over one another's
necks to view the mix ups. Harry
stevens would have to order an ocean
Of pop, a sea of coffee, a string Of
frankfurters longer than the Atlantic
cable and a Mt. Mckinley of peanuts
But as to yesterday. II tCds base
bail tight as the skin on the dome OF
an Egyptian mummy. II tCdS. I think,
the fastest game played on the Polo
Grounds this SedSOn--One hour and
tlCcnty-fUe minutes. The cubs got
oHlD tlOCntV-sir chances at bat in nine
innings, the Giants tUc.ty-seUen in
eight.
Jesse Barnes had EN- looking like
n legless man trying TO walk tight
rope. Two hits only he granted the
bunny Pruins. And but for Beauty
Bancrof.s error in the sixth, Jesse
would have shut them out as cruelty
as heartless landlord shoves the
starving family forth TO MUNICH snow
cakes on the bittah winters night.
Cubs and Giants had arrived at the
sixth inning, both scoreless, each with
only one hit. For Hippo" Vaughn
was proving a worthy foe of Jesse at
his best. Hippo. the delicate youth,
mad a vicious hop on his offerings and
was thinking 'em out as crafty as
our Jesse.
"Canteloupe Charley Herzog in
the first inning shocked Jesse for a
safety TO left, but shortly afterward
was nailed for the third out by Sny-
der 70 Doyle as Charles tried TO swipe
second on his old team mates. In our
third Doyle dented right field for a
base wallop only, however, to be dou-
bled by Snyder's crack to HerZog at
second.
The sixth inning was the big act
That's when the gore was split on
both sides and the victory won.
Deal led off for Windville with
bowling triple that biffed the left field
fence. DAILY shot out a grass ripper,
Beauty closed in on it but it crashed
It's way through his hands and sizzled
ON far behind him. Deal delivered
the first tally. There was none out
and 1t began to look too ClIbby to be
comfortable. Cosy" Dolan set up a
frightful uproar of war cries from
The Cub coaching box with intent to
iazZ the temper and judgment OF
Jesse. Tut, tut, Cosy, Jesse was
ON the job with all his goods yes
terday and knew IL. He grabbed
Vaughn's sacrifice bunt and pitched
him out to Kell. F'risch fiOunced
Flack's similar endeavor to Kell and
Frankie also sealed "Canteloupe
Charley's" fate in the same manner
Yet as WE uneasily faced this Cub
run on the ScoNeiOOard We saw
Larry Doyle pass away on a fly
