They declined to wait until Monday.
but they got no satisfaction. Wise
citizens went around buying UP the
grandstand rain checks for twenty five
cents apiece
Next to the appearance OF Ruth the
biggest factor for tubilation among the
Yankees to-day was the great come
back of Bob Shawkey yesterday. Bob
gave only one solid hit among four
scattered Singles. and showed a world
of stuff and ability TO control it. Shaw
key now is expected TO appear in an
early game in the worlds series-in the
third contest, most likely. 1t will be

las, Shawkey against Toney-that is.
according to present Indications.
Babe Expects to Win.
The Yankees are mighty glad that
they are to meet the Giants in the
worlds series. They declare that they
do not fear the McGraw outfit-they
point to the fact that they were will
ing to meet them IN city series last
fall. However. there is no Dragging
about what the Yankees are likely to
do against the Giants. Ruth said that
he felt that the Yankees would beat
the National Leaguers.
II think that it VIII be a tough scrap
all the way, but l cannot see how the
Giants pitchers are going to stop the
hitting of this club" said the Babe
And think that che way our pitchers
are going now they ought to stop the
Giants. 1t looks like the most inter-
esting worlds series ever
Huggins will not say q thing about
series with the Giants until the pen
nant is clinched-and he may refuse to
speak even then. The Miller Is keeping
quiet, but thinking lot. He wants 10
win that serleS-wnnts to win might
hard. He is an old National Lacquer
knows the McGraw methods-and he is
thinking.
Huggins knows that the Yankees facs
a tough proposition. and he Is banking
on his pitchers. He appreciates thai
in this series more than in any other
in recent years it Will be pitching tha.
will count more than anything else, and
he Is sending up fervent prayers tha'
Shawkey retain the form he showed
yesterday. He knows, Of course, thai.
1t will take far better pitching than
Shawkey showed yesterday to hold the
Giants down.

CHICAGO, Sept. so (American) The
to-day to retain their place in the Amer
lean League pennant race, refused to
bow to the pitching prowess OF "Red"
Faber pitching star Of the White Sox,
and batted out 8 to 2 victory. The
game was a thrilling pitching duel be-
tween Stanley Coveleskie, the ace of the
Cleveland staff, and Faber, who was at
tempting TO win his twenty-sixth victory
Of the season.
Coveleskie was unsteady at the start,
and Chicago got away to ono man lead
in the first inning. After two men were
out, Collins singled to centre and Hooper
followed with a single to right and Col
Inns scored when Sheely singled to
centre.
Coveleskie settled down and was
given sensational support in the next
two innings, but in the fourth he lost
control and Hooper was passed. Shecly
worked him for a coGht Of three and
two and then hit to left for two bases,
scoring Hooper. A quick double play ty
Gardner and Sewell and Mul,igan's fly
to Gardner ended the inning.
Faber pitched invincible bail until the
fifth when the Indians got the range.
Gardner opened with a single and Sewell
followed with another safe hit. Burns
famed and Faber walked O'Neill, filling
the bases. Coveleskies long fly to
Hooper scored Gardner after the catch.
Jamieson's single to right scored Sewell

Rain in Philadelphia Forces
New Yorks to Bring
Game Here.
by DANIEL.

PHILADE1 1PHIA, Sept. 30.--Only one
game from the American League pen
nant the Yankees We're thwarted by
rain this afternoon in their keen desire
TO down the Athletics in their final
meeting here. Just before game time a
heavy downpour set in and made the
field unfit for play. In consequence the
setto which was scheduled for to-day
will be incorporated in a double header
at the Polo Grounds tomorrow
For a time the Yankees were under
the impression that the shower had
handed the pennant to them on a plat
ter. They thought that the game had
been washed out of their schedule and
that they had only two more TO play
one with the Mackmen Tomorrow and
one with the Red Sox on Sunday. AS
two losses still would leave the New
Yorks on top they were unduly jubilant
but only for n short while.
When Col. Huston was congratulated
on having won the pennant he came
through with the information that the
postponed game of to-day would have to
be played in New York "The American
League constitution, as amended a
couple of years ago, forces the New
York club to play off the game of this
afternoon in a double header to-mor-
row. explained the Colonel. mot so
many years back we could not play off
game in Boston and at the close OF
the season asked the Red Sox to meet
us in New York. as the Yankees were
lighting for third money. The Red Sox
Mays Warmed Up.
So two games 1t will be in Harlem to-
morrow--two games and no doubt the
pennant for the Yankees. Carl Mays,
who was warming up to face the Mack
men this afternoon, will pitch in the
first contest, and that should settle the
scrap. Rommel no doubt will be the
Philadelphia choice. In the second game
ii is likely to be Hoyt and Hasty. Mays
was quite disappointed when the shower
came. Il was all keyed up to give those
birds the pitching of my life,' Carl said
as he meandered disconsolately at the
North Philadelphia station.
OF chief Importance in the shower
developments in the Yankee camp was
the appearance of Babe Ruth, as larg.
as life, with a broad smile on his face
The Babe admitted that he had suffered
an attack of Tennessee ague on Thurs
day and had feared a siege of illness.
But the big fellow threw off that assault
of the grip over night. and to-day said
that he was feeling fit once more.
About 1000 fans turned out for the
final appearance Of the Athletics
whether to give them encouragement
and bid them bon voyage or to declare
Good riddance" it could not be deter
mined. After the disgraceful way in
which some of the fans treated the local
players yesterday it was easy to see why
so many Mackmen in time decline to
play here. Charges that the Athletics.
from Mack down to the bat boy, were
throwing the game to the New Yorks
flew thick and fast and scraps between
spectators and players narrowly were
averted.
That Mack did not care to play the
game here to-day and was anxious TO
have 1t thrown into a double header
in New York was II ade plain as soon
as the rain came. No effort was made
The New York herald., 1921-10-01
This Is Yankees Big Day;
To Play Double Header
Situation as Big League
Clubs Near the Goal

TT HE American League race still
is undecided. Cleveland gained
1 half game by defeating Chi
cago yesterday while the Yankees
were idle, but the New Yorks need
only one more victory or a defeat of
Cleveland to romp home with the flag.
In addition to its two games with
Philadelphia to-day, the Yankees will
play Boston here tomorrow in their
final league game of the season. A
postponed game with Washington has
been cancelled. Cleveland has two
more games with Chicago.
The Giants, who have won the
pennant in the National League, did
not play league game yesterday.
while Pittsburgh again was defeated
by st. Louis.
Interest in the National League
now centres in the possibility of st.
Louis tying the Pirates for second
place. This may be accomplished by
st. Louis winning its last two games.
