Fast Going New Workers Make
1t Three Out of Four by
Taking Last Game of Series
From Worlds Champions.
By Charles SOmerUHIe.

Well, after all. the Reds won a
worlds championship, so 1 haven't ex-
aotly the heart to heat the griddle
very hot in describing what happened
20 EN- yesterday, how they passed
from big league to bush and from
bush to Just plain bum. All afternoon
Coogah's Blur ran red. but not Red
runs, for their afternoons amusement
from Toney was one lone, piteous
tally and FIVE hits none over a single,
the while the Giants bumped Eller OF
the mound in an inning hammered
Ring mercilessly-Ring. who had held
them helpless last Saturday-chasing
him in three innings, and belted Fisher
as brutally for the rest of the game.
They uprooted the Reds with a cyclone
of sixteen hits, pyramfding eleven
runs in eight innings. The Polo
Grounds was an abattoir and the
MOranaga1ts the cattle. Heinle Groh
chucked the game in the fifth inning,
Crane taking his place at third. The
heart was gone out of Heinie, for he
was getting bad chucks heaved at
him and couldn't seem to hold q ball
or hit one, either.
Not to jump at conclusions, but,
Just the same, the Reds yesterday, in
their last game OF a lost series which
puts the Giants only two and a half
games behind them and but five
games in the wake Of the Brooklyn
Robins, played like a seriously broken
team. Their sluggishness, indiffer-
ence, frequent lapses Into mere anna
teurishneSs, after the Giants had
strung up six TALES in the first three
Innings, appeared about as close TO
open surrender as ever n big league
ball club made-certainly that was
--ever displayed by a team bearing the
title OF worlds champions.
Well, the Reds have been the sea-
sons pacemakerS in n long stretch,
and 1t has been a nervous Job, for
their lead has never been a command
ing one. In fact the whole pack was
always at their heels. The fiery char
acter of the games the Giants met
them with, save on Saturday, may
have brought the Champs to an actual
smash of form. And the Dodgers
Knockout OF the Cardinals yesterday
Isn't going to cheer the Moranagans
up any, either.
Inc uiunt bdnOteSt yesterday began
IN the t'crU first inning. and in only ono
Of their eight innings t0tro they hitIeSs.

II you are fond Of murder stories
this should SWrelU please.
Althourh Pops homer didn't sal
into the blcachers, It was a far longer
hit than necessary to drop the bal
into the grand stand or benches. II
Tell so far out into left centre so near
the fence, that the Red fielders made
