UNUSUAL PERFORMANCES
OCCUR IN WORLD SERIES

NEW YORK, Oct 1,.-Here are
some Of the unusual features OF the
late world series in a nutshell:
Hoyt pitched three games without
the Giants earning run off him.
This ties a record established by
Mathewson in 1905.
Mays did not give base on balls
in three games and hit only one
batsman.
The Giants did not make any CT.
rors in the last two games, nor in
the first and third.
There were three shutouts and two
other games in which the losers
scored only one run.
Three games ended with double
plays.
new record was established for
receipts in an eight-game series.
Eddie Brannick, traffic manager
of the Giants, will be the most over
dressed man on either club. He won
Eighteen hats, four suits of clothes
and three overcoats on the series.

But I want to tell the world that

victory. We fought to the ninth in.
ming Of the eighth game. but now
that it's over. there isn't man on
the club who would begrudge the
new world champions an ounce OF
their glory.
Defeat for the Yankees is sweet.
ened by the fact that no single fell
low can be held responsible. Every
body tried hard and where failures
came they were pretty evenly dis
tributed. Carl Mays and Waite Hoyt
gave us the masterful pitching that
we hoped for. but the notorious Yam
kee punch behind them was lacking

The highest honors in baseball now

ACTS ; YEARS
AS GRID CHIEF
At LAFAYETTE
Frank Schwab, Crack Guard,
Considered Certain of Official
Honor Next Season.

EASTON, Pa, Oct. Ia. - Frank
Schwab, one Of the best guards that
ever wore the Maroon and White of
Lafayette, enjoys n distinction never
won by any other player at the Easton
institution. In his freshman year he
played guard on Bodie Weldon's great
eleven that defeated Lehigh 10 to by
scoring a touchdown In the last minute
of play. That year Schwab was acting
captain of the team whenever Weldon
was not in the game. At the conclu-
sion OF the season of 1919 Lafayette
failed to elect a captain. and, accord
ingly, played the season of 1920 with
no regular leader. But Schwab was
acting captain in every game.
In the game with Pittsburgh this
year Captain Lehecka caught the kick
Off and was fiercely tackled after run
ming back the ball to midfield. He
failed to rise promptly, and when he
was assisted to his feet he was unable
to stand alone. He was carried to the
sidelines, and later an X-ray picture
been broken. Schwab acted as captain
for the remainder OF the Pitt game,
and has been the Lafayette field leader
In every game since. AS 1t is highly
improbable that Captain Lehecka will
be able to play until the Lehigh game
on November 10. il at all this season.
Schwab will captain the team for the
remainder Of the season.
Schwab will be q senior next season,
and Is the logical man for the
captaincy in 1922. AS a matter of
fact. he will have no opposition for the
position when Lafayette elects leader
at the close OF the season. Therefore.
Schwab will have acted as leader off
and on every year Of his college
career, a somewhat unique honor for
football man.

REFEREE QUESTION
 BEFORE RICHARD
JULY 2.

Atlantic City. May 2O-Jim Cor bett, Jim Jeffries. former heavy weight champions, and Lord Lons- dale of London. well known London sportsman, are being mentioned as the possible trio to be selected to act as judges in the Dempsey and Car pentier championship bout
 It has also been suggested that in case the bout goes the limit and there is doubt regarding the winner a com mtttee named by members of the press could meet in New York after the fight and give a decision on which bets could be settled.
 No three men are any better quail two former champions and the great English sportsman Their nam eS were suggested here today by a per son close to Dempsey, who prefers to remain unidentified, that such a com mittee will eventually be named seems certainty now. Sentiment in favor of it is gaining ground steadily and man newspapersmen we have sounded out on the subject are ready to support the idea
 Under the laws of Jersey the referee of the big fight will be unable to render a decision and he will be duty bound not to announce his opin- ion in New York or elsewhere atfer the fight is over. Thus naming a com nailttee seems the only way out for the popular demand for a decision is almost world wide.

June 2. have never yet seen Carpentier put up his hands in real action and re- gardleSs of my past experiences and familiarity with boxers I would not attempt to predict the result at Jersey City without haing first studied both boxers. Any report of this nature that does not appear under my sigma ture, therefore, must be considered erroneous.

 Atlantic City, N. J., May 2o-Jack Dempsey's two Belgian police dogs have real names today. They are Ginsberg and Hemmingway. Warren Brown and Jack White did the nam ing and the ceremony was the big gest event of a quiet day at Demp- Sey'S quarters.
 The champion did not pull much of a workout yesterday afternoon boxing but one round with each of the three SparrinS partners.
 The latter were very happy indeed as the chewing Of the old steak at $ r. m. was done without pumping sore out the big christening came off and now you can call the dogs by their right names and might get one or both of them by saying:
 Here, Ginsberg."
 Now that the dogs know one an other there is not so much battling as there was. It's so much nicer to know whose who. don't you know Dempsey left CIinsberS and Hem 1ningway flat in the evening and took in a movie show on the boardwalk.

I him. therefore. it would be folly for any man to attempt to judge him sight unseen. Mary boxing critics and just plain devotees favor Dempsey to win. There is a generous spr;nkling of stu Carpenters chances best. and 1here are many others on the fence. Let us consider Alese views. Arguments for Dempsey.
 Those who favor Dempsey build their arguments around these points:
 He is Carpenters physical supe- rior.
 His rapid fire. rushing attack should sweep Carpentier off his feet. His SIedge- hammer like blows will batter down the lad from France.
 His ageress.yeness is a greater de- fense than Carpenter can boast of.
 BU- wait
 The Csrpentier faction has its points to make too:
 Here is a lad whose dazzling foot work will enable him to elude Demp- seys rUshes.
 And while he is stepping around Dempsey, tantalizinS him with un- canny footwork, he will be driving home telling punches wherever he finds an opening
 Here is a, boxer whose punches are deadly; a boxer who has toppled over and a boxer who comes to us un- marked. thereby proving that he is master of defense.
 Why has he not chance to win the championship?
 Why, indeed? You, my readers and myself, can only guess as to the merits of nhese two men while we study them. We shall review their deeds ir the ring and in due time will atteE9pt to weigh their chances.
