Against the Yankees Is Now AL
most Gone-One More Victory
for New York or One Defeat for
the Indians Will Be Decisive

New York, Sept. 90.--The New York
Giants are the 1921 National League
champions. While they accomplished
the feat mainly by their own efforts,
il remained for the St Louis Cardi-
nails to give them the final shove that
placed them beyond the reach of the
Pittsburg Pirates, no matter what
happens in the remaining games.
New York was idle but the Cardi-
nails, on their own stamping grounds,
walloped the Pirates twice yesterday
and settled the league championship.
But they also created new possibil-
ity-that of tieing the Pennsylvanians
for second honors. These two clubs
have three more games to play in the
present series and If the clouting Car
dinals make a clean sweep they will
come up to even terms with Pitts
burg.
One of Pittsburg's own sons. Bill
Doak, pitched st. Louis to victory in
the first battle, 5 to 4, in 10 innings
over Wilbur Cooper. The second, an
abbreviated affair of six innings. due
to darkness, was credited to Pitcher
Sherdel's winning column. The clubs
made the same number iof hits in
each game, ten apiece in the first and
five each in the second.

Pal, Why Don't you Answer Me-" He
was singing as the trap was sprung.
The chorus to the song Wanderer
sang is as follows:
"The long night through, ! wait for
you,
"Oh. pal, why don't you answer me?
my arms embrace an empty space,
"The arms that held you tenderly
"If you can hear my prayer. away up

and her unborn child. but the jury
