The broad smile Of Uncle Wilbert
Robinson was erased by the combina-
ton. But he is still taking nourish-
ment and uttering defiance To-mor-
row he will thrust in Sergeant Sher-
rod Smith to hold the rush of the In
dams, a rush that day seemed
ordained by the fates iris Speaker
probably will put in "Duster" Mails.
the most eccentric Of the left handlers,
and then come back with Covelesk to
make the series as abrupt as possible
under khe circumstances. Caldwell is
pleading for a chance, but it seems
that the exYankee is regarded as un-
lucky for this series.
The Dodgers have their chance to
demonstrate their gameness and heir
stamina tomorrow. If .hey can come
back after what happened to them here
20 day, then they are made of very
heroic mud for ball players. To-day
The dash of the Indians and the rush
of circumstances made the Dodgers de-
cidedly look like a much poorer Ceam
But tomorrow the tickle fates may
stand on the side lines with the
Dodgers.
How the Runs We're Made
Ivan Olson, the first Dodger at bat,
directed his attention toward the press
box in the first inning and cnromed
L couple Of foul balls off some of the
nigh fcrcheads there. Eventually he
laccd nice single to left Jack Shee-
nan, tie rookie, who relieved Jimmy
Johnston at third, laid down sacri-
ice. But Griffith rolled out to first and
Wheat hoistcd one to left.
When Jameson came to bat, the
Spirit of Cleveland, impersonated by a
man with megaphone, called for
demonstration and got it. Jameson
bounced a single off the sensitive shins
Of big Ed Koretchy. Wambsganss, after
tapping more fouls than he has con-
sonants in his name, slashed a single
between third and short. This caused
the Dodger inield to assemble around
ourlelgh Grimes and engage him in
earnest conversation. But the -esult
was that Burleigh went bac}, TO his
splitting. Speaker rolled bunt down
to Grimes for a sacrifice. Burleigh
went after it eagerly slipped and saf
down abruptly. Before he could throw
rom the sQuatting position, Speaker
vas safe at first for an infcld hit and
the bases were filed with nobody out
Elmer Smiths Home Run
Don't quit, keep it up, shriekod
the Spirit of Clevelanf through his
megaphone. The local b~gs RESPONDED
again as Elmer Smith, the local Babe
Ruth, came to bat. Elmer took two
hearty and husky swings on nothing
Then it came-for the first time in
worlds series-a home run with the
bases filled. 1t was q straight ball and
ust where Elmer wanted it. Bob
Shawkey, during the late lamented
American League series, gave Elmer
mussed up the adjacent scenery with it,
To-day he lifted the pill over the right
leld fence onto a roof crowded with
iocal bugs and the bases were cleared
Cor four runs.
Right then and there it looked like
he end of the game and the end of
he series. The Spirit Of Cleveland
with his megaphone did not have to
call upon the inmates for a demonstra-
ton. 1t came louder and more earnest
than the cries Of all the Chambers of
assembled. They are demonstrative
people here. iris Speaker paused at
the plate to slap Smith on the shoulder
as he trotted across. Other Cleveland
players rushed out of the dugout to
paw him affectionately.
Honey Gets ThreeeBagger
With one out in the second inning
Aonetchy turned loose his first real hit
OF the series. 1t was some.ning of a
swat, bounding into center field out of

petelkin Kilduf lifted one to Jameson.
Honey started to fiornder home but the

him out, completing a double play.
The Dodgers started to touch up Ser
