NEW YORK, Oct. I3.-World's champions, 1921-the New York Na- tional league baseball club.
 The Giants won by defeating the Yankees in the eighth game of the worlds series at the Polo grounds to- day. The American league cham pions died fighting hard in a classic twirling duel between their pitching ace, Waite Hoyt, and Art Nehf, the Giants star left handler. However. they lacked the necessary punch. the National league team taking the game by l to and the series, five games to three.
 The Giants victory gives Manager John J. McGraw his second worlds championship team. The New York Nationals. seven times pennant win ners under McGraw, captured the worlds title against the Athletics of the American league in 1905, but al though winning the bunting five times since they have been baffled every time until this year, twice bow ing to the Athletics. once to the Red Sox and once to the White Sox.
 This year. with a National league entrant that had shown it's high class by coming from behind late and beat ing the Pittsburg Pirates to the flag, the worlds series told a different story. Off to a poor start through loss of the first two games, the Giants gamely came back. speedily evened up the series, and then, with but a slight let-up while getting their second wind. rounded into the stretch with a rush and pushed through with three straight victories to their final triumph. In every victory, except today's, they came from behind. Thus one of the best and most hotly con tested series in the history of tizr- sport was won cleanly. and. in the final analysis, decisively. by a club whose gameness and all around abil- ity will be generally conceded.
 Pitching Staff Wins
 As for the underlying reason for the success of the McGraw men ex- perts may differ, but there seems little cause to doubt that the most widely propounded opinion will be that 1t was because of a preponder- ance of high class pitching. The series showed but two of Manager l Miller Huggins' twirlers capable of | pitching winning ball--Mays and Hoyt-while the Giants put forward a i trio of masters in Douglas, Barnes and Nehf
 outhit by the Giants in nearly ev- i cry game and by many points in the 1 series. NLe dThGGS uOuG luG ttSS made a hard fight by their srnartness | in manufacturing runs out of scant material and the superb work done l by Mays and Hoyt fin six of the eight 1 battles Their championship craft went down with flag flying and to-
 night their loyal supporters were tempering their condolences over the loss of the series with congratulations on the showing the Yankees made in i the first worlds title series New 1 York American league team has l earned the right to compete.
 Winning of the final game was due | to the superb pitching of Nehf 1 against a moundsman to whom he previously had twice lost the decision.
 Allowing the American league bats

 three of them coming with two men
 out, the crafty southpaw again and
 again turned the Yankees back in
 order or baffled their determined eff
 forts to put across the solitary run
 for which they were struggling.
 Hardly a whit less creditable was
 the performance of Hoyt. the Yankee
