Yankees Must Win Two

The McGraw men need but one
more victory to give them the series
.ld the big end of the money. If the
Yankees should win tomorrow and a
ninth game is necessary, the Giants
will be the home team. the Yankees
batting first. This was decided in
the club house at the Polo Grounds
late this afternoon. Commissioner
lands tossed a coin and President
Stoncham of the Giants called the
turn.
Big Crowd Out
Today's game. probably the best
PLAYED and certainly the snappiest
and tensest of the series, was one
worthy of the two pennant winning
clubs. 1t was witnessed by a holiday
crowd of 5000 persons a crowd
which was by all odds the most de-
monstrative of all the great throngs
which have gathered for these games.
1t seemed almost as if the roar that
greeted Chick" Fewster. the Yankee
lead off man again substituting for
the disabled Babe" Ruth when he
stepped to the plate in the first inn
ing, was continued without pause I'M
til Phil Douglas of the Giants tossed
out Wally Schang for the last out in
the ninth. One side or the other of
the partisanly divided throng either
found an ever present occasion to
cheer or took the occasion regardless.
Douglas. Mays in Duel
Once more and for the third time 1t
was a case Of Douglas against Mays
and for the second time the verdict
went to Douglas. "Shufflin" Phil
pitched masterful ball. settling down
after a somewhat uncertain time OF 1t
for the first two innings. in the sec
ond Of which the Yankees scored their
only tally, and either turning the
American Leaguers back in order or
skill<llv foiling their valiant at
tempSs to put another run across the
plate He was aided by wonderful
support by his Giant teammates, not
fielding misplay being made on the
Nationals side.
On the other hand Carl Mays. while
the loser, has to be given credit for
an equally notable, if less successful
performance on the mound. The
blonde Missourian was steadier than
Douglas. not issuing a pass and al
lowing but six hits to eight for his
opponent, and but for a slip. most un-
fortunate for Mays and his Yankee
teammates on the part of Aaron
Ward in the seventh inning, the game
easily might have gone into extra in
nfrgs with the score tied one to one.
Wards MispIay Costly

The differences between the two

COOLIDGE BIDS FOR
MANS RETURN TO
RELIGIOUS ACTIVITY

New York, June 9,-"Men must
work. il they work at all, for some
thing better than the material well
fare of life" said Vice-President
Coolidge today at a luncheon in
Brooklyn which marked the 1O6th
anniversary of the Brooklyn Sunday
School Union.
I'VE must return to the religious
activity that has brought men out of
savagery to the present stats of CT
vilization. Material welfare has not
been, is not and won't ever be enough
We must return to the consultations
of religion. Where homes and
churches go together there is an in
fluence against which no evil can
prevail
Postmaster General Hays said he
was firmly convinced the men and
women of the country are solidly be-
hind the Sunday School institution.
upon which, he said, the greatness of
the nation is based.
Our problems are problems that
you can not hope to approach with
any expectation of solution except on
your knees" said Mr.. Hays.
MIR. Coolidge paid tribute to the
religious activities entered in the
work of American Sunday Schols,
as exemplitied by today's demon
stration.
1T is a day of hope for me and of
rejustified faith in the American
people and American institutions. -
he said. 1T demonstrates that our
American people are still clinging
steadfasty to the realities of life and
so long as that is the condition our
present position in the leadership of
the world is secure. 1t is known
that these are days of great difficult
ties not only to the nation but to the
world. We expect to work out of
them.
I'VE have enjoyed in the past a
great prosperity in America, ex-
tending to the confines of the world.
The war in measure took it away.
The bringing of it back calls for a
readjustment."
More than 125,000 children took
part in the parade which followed
the luncheon. 1t was reviewed by
vice-President Coolidge, Senator
Calder. John Wanamaker, former
Ambassador Gerard and Postmaster
General Hays.

WOMAN POSITIVE
SAGC0 WAS ONE OF
FLEEING BANDITS

Dedham, Mass, June 9-Miss Mary
E. Splane, bookeeper. today said she
positively identified Nicola Sacco as
a passenger in the bandits automo-
bile which fed from the scene of the
murder of Frederick A. Parmenter,
a paymaster, and his guard at South
Braintree a year ago.
Testifying at the trial of Sacco and
Bartolomeo VanZettl. charged with
the crime, Miss Splaine declined to
alter her assertion that from Sc
cond story window about sixty feet
from the speeding car she had seen
Sacco leaning from the machine.
She said she had full face and pro-
file views of him and believed she
Counl not be mistaken.
Sacco and Nanzctti were arrested.
On cross examination Miss Splaine
denied her lower court testimony
taken in May 1920. shortly after
Sacco and NanZctti We're arrested,
that she would not swear that Sacco
was the man she had seen. She also
characterized as false the lower
courts transcript of her testimony
where it said that she had seen the
bandits right hand. She said she
saw only his left, large muscular
hand, gripping the back of the front
scat of the automobile as he leaned
out from it.
One point brought out by the de-
Tense was Miss Splaine's admission
of her lower court testimony that
she had said she did not think her
opportunity afforded her a sufficient
view of the bandit to say that Sacco
was the man. She now is positive
Sacco was the man, she said.
Louis l.. Wade. a shoe worker,
testified that although Sacco resem-
bled the murderer of AIessandro
Berardelli, the paymasters guard.
he had sen another man within four
weeks who also reSembled the bandit
This man. he said. sat next to him
in a South BraiEtree barber shop.
He had told District Attorney Katz-
mann shortly after the arr est OF Sac
co that he positively could identify
Sacco as the man he saw shooting
Berardclli but now he is not sure,
he testified.
The prosecution introduced a nick
81 plated is caiibre revolver into
court proceedings today, without
putting it in evidence. James +.
BostocN, q machinist. testified that
he had seen Il similar weapon in
Berardelli's possession a few days
before the murder, that he had seen
it several times before and had hand
led it. Yesterday Miss Margaret Ma
honey, show factory paymistress
testified that Berardelli carried a
nickel plated revolver.
The significance of this weapon
has not yet been brought out in the
trial. NO weapon was listed as
found on Berardelli's body Or near
him on the day OF the murder. The
prosecution in its opening asserted
it would show that a .3S calibre au-
tomato pistol was found on Sacco
and that gun was found on Van
zetti'.
