International News Service.

In an effort to prevent the emer-
gency tariff bill from being held uI
indefinitely in the Senate, its sup.
porters are trying today to reach
an agreement to choke off all
amendments which may yet be pro.
posed to it.
Senator Penrose, of Pennsylvania
the Republican chairman Of the
Senate Finance Committee, is also
seeking to fix time for a final
vote on the measure. He hopes to
be able to do 30 today.

Coach jackson Cannell affirmed

This innovation In the Green
coaching system will be watched
closely. inasmuch as it is a dis

the new Dartmouth method of
training players.
Moreover, Coach Cannell. quar-

college football. and his success
with this step will greatly deter
mine its use in the future.

whose great performance on the
mound in the last game of the series
was almost uncanny. Barnes must
be given credit for pulling two games
out of the fire, and Rawlings must
be credited with the greatest and
gamest exhibition of playing around
second base that has been seen in
world series.
Giants Came From Behind.
With all of it, however. the Gotham
fan will always remember that the
Giants came from behind after
losing the first two games, evened
up the series and then won IL
through superior playing. 1t would
be difficult, indeed, to place the
laurel on any head without consider
ing Jess Barnes, Artie Nehf, Phil
Douglas and Frank Snyder. but the
mind of the writer contrarily drifts
toward Rawlings and his pal, who
came from the Phillies-Emil Meusel

Northwestern University's foot
ball games and explain to her the
various formations and shifts, il
the vote taken by the Women's
League of Northwestern is any
indication Of future opinion.
"The football coaches are disap-
pointed with the brand Of cheering
they are receiving at the football
games" explained Miss Anita
Furness, senior and president of
the league, "and they blame 1t on
the fact that the students and girls
sit together in the Rrandstand and
forget to cheer.
"By a popular vote the 200 men,
bers of the league decided to march

sit apart from the men and do
their own cheering. Megaphones

Miss Hollins might be compared to
Ted Ray. There is not a finer expo
nent Of perfect style in golf than Harry
Vardon, yet last year IL was Ted Ray
who won the American open champion
ship in field which included Vardon.
We have watched them play closely
and cannot help but become enthusias-
tic over the polish of Vardon. The
same applies to Miss Stirling. There
was not a woman in the tournament
who had better form, but she los:.
Miss Hollins can hit a terrific ball. SO
can Ted Ray. When you can get on
in two instead of three, that means
a whole lot. That is Miss Hollins just
as 1t is Ted Ray. So what does form
count for after all If you have the
punch?
Miss Edith Leitch had as bad form
as any one in the tournament, still
she went a long way. She swatted at
the ball as IL she were trying to chop
a piece Of wood, but somehow or
other she managed to get up 10 the
green right and win until she met
Miss Ebrine Rosenthal of Chicago.
Style Not Perfection.
Miss Holmes has a style that is not
perfection by any means, but just like
Ted Ray she can hit ball so far from
the tee and with her brassie through
the fairway that she leaves herself
but little to do when she gets up
within striking distance of the pin.
Some have said that she has never
been a putter, but she proved that Miss
had nothing in this department
of the game which excelled her. She
haUa fNla Nyad the finest sort
of golf, but she did play the winning
brand all the way.
Missed One-Foot Putt.
When you look back on II all you
might pick out two or three little
quirks which might have changed the
whole complexion of the champion
ship. Miss Elaine Rosenthal, of Chi
cago, will probably never forgive her
self for the twelve-inch putt that she
missed on the eighteenth hole for a
win against Miss Marion Hollins in
the semi.finals. But for that she would
have been in the final against Miss
Sterling and would very likely have |
been crowned the champion.
This demure little Chicago girl de- |
served a better cate. She fought two |
Df the hardest battles OF the whole |
Against Miss Edith Leitch |
she was forced to go an extra hole, |

lay she may win the big event.

BEFORE ENDING
Col. Huston Says He'll Work
Till Doom's Day to Annex
World Championship.
by JACK vEIOCK.

NEW YORK. Oct. 1.-THE greatest
world series is a thing OF history 10
day.
From a standpoint OF spectacular
playing in the "pinches," tightly
pitched games, attendance and a won
derful display OF fighting spirit on the
part or both teams there has never
been another series like 1t, and IL viii
be years, many years, before IL can be
duplicated.
Col. TIL Huston, one of the Yankee
owners, expressed the opinion of the
average New Yorker today when he
said
''I've seen ball clubs fight tooth and
nail. I've seen pitchers throw their
hearts out. I've seen lot of things
performed on baseball diamond I'm
my time. but | have never seen n
gamer pair OF teams than the YanSs
? and Giants proved themselves TO be
In this series.

unued, that IL took "a few years 10

pionship winner and IL may take lit
tie longer TO form a world champion
ship team. but We'll have 'em il il
takes till doom's day"
An honest Hustonian tesr rolled
down the colonel's cheek as he spoke,
and Colonel Rupert smiled and nod
ded assent.
Were going to start building our
own park next spring" said Colonel
Rupert. That's how much we think
of the Yanks."
John McGraw and the owners of the
Giants spent the happiest day of their
lives. The outcome of the series made
McGraw two-time world series and
seven-time National League cham
pion, all of which puts him so far
ahead of rival managers that they are
invisible for his dust
He Deserved Credit. 4
McGraw, incidentally, deserves
tremendous amount of credit for the
victory scored by his team. Coming
from behind after losing two games
in row to the plucky and capable
Yankees, 'NIack's" men evened up |
the series by winning two In a row
themselves, and through wonderful |
handling of pitchers and brilliant work |
on the part of every slabman who |
went into the box for the Giants, with |
the lone exception of Fred Toney, the !
National League champions swept |
majestically to victory.
Fighting spirit on the part of the |
Giants, the spirit that enables a man |
or team to come from behind and |
win, was the secret of the success of |
McGraw's team, coupled, as it was,
with admirable and craftier manage
ment. !
No one can say that the Giants were |
the gamest club, for the Yankees |
fought like wildcats for every game |
and were never beaten until the last
man was out. They did all this with
out Babe Ruth, whose loss amounted
to decrease of some 35 per cent of |
their attacking effectiveness.
Hoyt Outstanding Star.
Waite Hoyt was the outstanding star
OF the Yanks. He was the ace. BY
scoring two out of three victories over
the Giants in just that many starts.
he proved himself a great pitcher He
had to crack at last before the burly
Giants and they cracked him. But
he was great in defeat.
Jess Barnes and johnny Rawlings
were the heroes of the series from a
Giant standpoint. With all due credit
