 Out Today
 For Revenge

New York. Cleveland, Sept. 24.-I Pennant warfare between the Tanks and Cleveland Indians ragged along the American League front again today.
 Beaten in the first game, but far from demorahzed, the Worlds cham pionS were out to even up the series today by winning the second game.
 The men O'Huggins, proud of them selves and feeling more confident with 8. lead of a full game over their ri vals, were eager to stretch that lead to two and if possible sweep the se- ries for the team that can take the majority of the quartet of games, is almost sure to capture the flag and enter the Worlds Series.
 Fine weather greeted the great army of baseball fans that was pre- pared to march on the Polo Grounds to witness todays game. The sun sun came up early and almost before his rays slanted over the skyline the advance gusrd of fans was in line at the box office.
 Saturday is the day of days for New Workers. The average Gotham fan leaves his toll at noon and there was not the slightest doubt but that the Tanks and tribesmen would play to an audience of 10000. Babe Ruth Boy Hero.
 Babe Ruth is the man of the your in this town. The busting Bamplno took it upon himself to lead the Tanks over the top and humble the great Stanley Coveleskie in one of the most interesting ball games of the sea- son.
 And needless to say. Yankee fans look to Ruth to lead his team to victory in the series Had it not been for Ruth's prolific bludgeon there would have been supreme Joy Tn Cleveland today instead of fears that the tribe is destined to play second fiddle in American League baSeball aff;r:rs this fall. Ruth is The Wh1le haired boy of the fans
 Miller Huggins, for at least once in his career as man manager d.u or for me . stroke of genera1ship in sending young Waite Hoyt against the tribe in the first game and getting away with Hoyt Beats Mighty Coveleslde- Hoyt did not figure to beat Covel- skie. for several reasons one IhlnS was his lack of experience ana 1ne importance of that first game coupled with the great crowd. Another was | the chance that he could stand up under a full nine innings Of hard pitching to the determlned t e,1+ 3atsmgd }he Ri9 got away with it and he did as fine a l job of twir1ing as Yankee fan could have wished to see.
 l With the first game safely tucked away in firm grip on the lead instead of holding it by a mere point, the Yankees were in an enVlable position
 as they prepared to enter the second battle of the series. Huggins had Carl Mays in reserve not to mention
 Harry Harper, who appears to have found himself of late and who will
 very probably get a crack at the tribe | during the series
 Mays figured to work today's game
 and come back at the Indians on | Monday. i. -t- -- | Manager Speaker, who has always been credited as an expert in hand 1 ling his twirlerS, was expected to send Duster Mails or Allen Sotheron | against the Yankees

The Senators put the game on ice in the sixth and seventh rounds when the Capital City batsmen fell upon Lefty LePard'S curv1ces with vio- sixth and half dozen in the sev- enth. LePard also contributed to the massacre with a. wild chuck that ac- counted for two of the tallies. Rasmussen, the Poughkeepsie semi-pro, signed by Jim Clarkin on the recommendation of Mickey Damn, pitched a fair article of ball and looks sure of being a fixture on the Senatorial lineup next season. The Derbies hit his curves hard in spots, but the youngster was airtight in the pincheS.
 The McCann outfit lead in long dis tance clouts, Regan getting a homer and double, while Mclaughlin, King don and LePard connected for two baggers.
 Bridgeport made a splendid start, ming, Kingdon'S two-bagger. Cm1th's single and Regan's homer doing the business.
 Began was another factor in the run getting in the fourth, when his muSSenS wild pitch netted a run The final scoring was executed by the DerbieS in the seventh, LePard'S dou- ble and Rays bang, netting a. run
 Looks like Began is a real ball player. He is still the property of the Kftche hener club, and it wouldn't be a surprise if McCann makes an effort to purchase him for next sea- sons DerbieS
