Crimson VS.. Crimson
to Be Close Affair,
Predicts Eckersall
BY WALTER ECKERsALL

The intersectional struggle between In
diana and Harvard at Cambridge, the
first Of importance Of the season, and the
clash between Iowa ana NOtre Dame on
the formers Zridiron, win feature Sat
urday's football games, although chicago
and Purdue are slated TO meet on Stage
field and Minnesota and Northwestern at
Minneapolis.
Although Harvard viii take the field n
faYorite over the Hoosiers, the Cambridge
team will not be victor by a lop sided
score If 1t is the winner at all Harvard s
8 to victory over Holy Cross last sat
urday plainly showed Harvard has not
reached a high point of development;
Coach Jumbo Stiehm has been drilling
his men for the Harvard game ever since
the season opened. The men have en-
gagged IN two actual contests, and should
be fit to stand the wear and tear OF
bruising struggle. This years Indiana
eleven Is stronger than the usual run Of
Hoosier teams, and it will be fortified
with numbers Of trick plays and other
formations expected to result in scores.
Unless some sort OF an agreement is
reached between tho coaches forwar l
passing may not have n bearing on the
result, for both eievens wear Crimson
jerseys. 1t is hard enough to pick out
eligible receivers Of forward passes when
different colored uniforms are worn, but
It will be next to impossible for the
passers TO pick cut their teammates in a
sea Of the same color.
Under such conditions 1t IL customary
for the home eleven to wear different col
ored uniforms, but 1t remains to be seen
whether Harvard will do this.

NEW YORK, Oct 4-Picking a win
ner of the world series between. the
Giants and Yanks is a hazardous, almost
foolhardy task to attempt.
The Giants, judging them by al-round
ability, have an edge on the Nanks,
though it is all on paper.
So a Giant victory in the coming series
will not surprise the writer, though an
Out-and-out selection Of McGraws team
is not being made here.
No worlds series in the last five years
or so has offered such 4 mountain or
uncertainties to the "dopeSter" Both
teams have their weak and strong points
Both are possessed of terrific punch;
Each has proved that 1t can fight and
win under ire. Weighed side by, side
they balance the scales pretty evenly.
Pitching has decided most world series
Of other years. 1t may decide this one.
If it does the Giants are the best PRE-
pared to stand the strain Of hard series.
A FEW IFS" TO
CONJURE WITH.
But what will the edge in pitching
profit the Giants if the YankS start TO
Slsughtering the slants OF McGraw
men. Or what if the prolific bats OF the
Giants, six of whom are 300 hitters, no
matter whether Smith or Snyder is used
behind the bat crash through the offer
ings of Carl Mays and Waite Hoyt?
Looking at it from this angle ability
to make the hits count may have more to
do with the decision in favor of the team
that gets the fewer hits than stingi-
ness on the part of stabberS-
Babe Ruth, naturally enough, looms up
as the big question mark for the Giant
pitchers to solve. Take him out of the
Tank lineup and New York fans would
make the Giants prime favOrites. The
big Bambino may break up the best
pitched ball game al any stage. Nobody
knows this any better than McGraw, and
It goes without saying Ruth will prob
ably get a base on balls if the Giants
are in a tight pinch. It's all in the
game and the Yank pitchers have the
same prerOgative.
1t can be said in favor of McGraw's
team that the Giants have a better sea
today than the Yanks. In Nehf. Toney,
Douglas and Barnes, McGraw mas a
mighty capable quartette. Behind these
men are Sallee, Ryan and Shea.
MAYS AND NEHF
THE TWO STARS
Manager Higgins has his one big ace
Carl Maya game and brilliant young
Slabber in Waite Hoyt and a dangerous
and willy veteran, when he is right. in
Bob Shawkey. But Shawkey isn't at his
best Old Jack Quinn. Harry Harper
Piercy and Collins stand behind these
twirlers. The Giants haven't looked at
a submarine delivery such as Nays uses
aud undoubtedly will fnd it trouble
some, but Art Nehf. in form, stands an
even chance to take Mays measure.
Compared to the Yanks the Giants are
superior in fielding and base running.
They play a more diversified game on
both attack and defense than the Memo

With the worlds series starting here

moaned.
The roOteTs were faced with the alter
native of going 10 the scalpers or journey

standing in line until the fog lifts over
the Harlem river.
Every little detail for the series had
been completed this morning. There was
nothing else to do but to open the gates
and put the players in their new uni
forms.
The umpires probably will get together
today with the managers of the two clubs
and decide upon uniform ground rules for
the series. The rules Of the two leagues
vary only slightly.
The 'umpires have been appointed and
every detail has been arranged. Looks
to me like they're all ready to play"
