BRITISH WOMEN SURVIVE ROUND
 IN GOLF TOURNEY
Miss AIexa Stirling, Present Champion, Wins Match In
 National Meet
By Associated rress

Deal, N. J., october 4.-The danger of the woman's golf championship of the United States being captured by an Englishwoman increased today when the representatives of Great Britain survived the first round or match play of the national tourna- ment in impressive style at the Hol- lywood Golf club,
 Miss Cecil Leitch, champion Of Great Britain, France and Canada won by eight and seven, eliminating Mrs. R. II. Hammer of New fork' Miss Leitch had an easy opponent, but her trip to the turn in 41 against a head wind increased respect for her Babe Ruth like driving power.
 Day's Big Upset
 The greatest upset of the day was the defeat of Miss Glenna Collett or Providence, who had tied for the qualifying medal, by Miss Edlth Leftch. sister of the British cham pion. three and two.
 Miss Collett's poor putting and one shot into a ditch were to blame.
 The closest match was that be- tween Mrs, Latham Hall of England, who had tied Miss Collett in quail fying, and Mrs. w. A. Gavin of New York. which went to 20 holes. Mrs. Hall won as the result of Mrs. Gavin uuthinlxingly tampfng her footprints in A bunker with her club before she had played out. Mrs. Gavin dlo this in the qualifying round ana cost her two strokes. Today it meant the match, as she lost the de- ciding hole, under the rules.

Athletics Have Defeated New York Twice Out of Three
 TituIar Series

New York, october 4=The New York Giants have won five pennants in the National league. including and since 1905, but they have been vic torious in only one worlds series play. McGraw won the worlds title with his team in 1905 against the Philadelphia Athletics, and though he has had greater organizations since, the American league cham pions oVercame them.
 The series of 1905 consisted of five shutout games, of which the Giants won four. Christy Mathewson turned in three of the victories. only 91.723 persons saw all five of the games and the total gate receipts were mite over $6S,OOo, but it was series that will stand as one of the greatest in baseball world series history.
 New York won the first game, 3 to 0, and was turned back by the same score in the second contest. They won the third, to o. the fourth to and the fifth to 0.
 Giants Lose Again.
 In 1911 the Giants again met the Athletics in the series and were de- feated. They won the opening game, played on their home lot, by score of to 1, and lost the second, played at Philadelphia, by to ]. The third game went 1 innings and was won by the Athletics to 2. The Athletics won the fourth, to 2, but New Yora made a great effort and won the fifth, at 10 innings, by 1 to 3. The Athletics pounded out enough hits to make I3 runs in the deciding game, and New York tallied but twice.
 Many believed the Giants should have won from the Boston Red Sox in 1912, but the luck favored the Bostonans and they were acclaimed worlds champions after eight games had been played, one tie In il innings and the final. which Boston won to ?, in 10 Innings. Boston won the opener, to 3, and the second was d 6-G tic. New York won the third, to l. Boston won the next two. to 1 and 2'to 1, respectively New York won the sixth and sev- enth, 5-2 and 11-4 The result of the eighth game already has been mentioned.
 Meet Macks Again.
 For the third time the Giants were pitted against the Athletics in a worlds championship in the games of 1913 and New York took but one game of the five. They won the second game, to 0, in 10 innings The Athletics won the first, to 4; the third 8 to 2; the fourth, 6 to 5, and the fifth, to 1.
 The Giants met the Chicago White Sox in the series of 1917, and after losing\ the first two games, ? to 1 and to ?, won the third and fourth by shutouts, to 0 and to 0. The White Sox won the fifth and sixth, to and 4 to 9

LITTLE WORLD'Sy
 SERIES BEGINS AT LOUISVILLE TODAY
Colonels and Orioles to Fight It Out for Class "A
 Title

Louisville, Ky, October Awhile New York is getting excited about the world series baseball games that start there tomorrow, Louisville to- night, with conflicting emotions. is awaiting the first game of the lit tie world series" between the Louis ville club, 1921 champions of the American association, and Baltimore International league pennant winner
 The Orioles, headed by Manager Jack Dunn, arrived tonight from Bal. timore, and tomorrow morning will Timber up at Eclipse park. The Colo nels today held final practice, and under the management of Joe Me Carthy, and captaincy of Charles L. (Buck) Herzog, himself a veteran of several world series, the players got ready for the coming of the east ernerS.
 Pitchers Uncertain
 Mccarthy and Dunn are keeping quiet as to their probable pitchers. The fans, however, are not so secre- tive and have either of two left handlers, Koob and Jeullop, picked to open for the Louisville team. A few, however, look at Ben Tincups string of unbroken victories for the season ana name the lndian as the prob- able choice. Bentley, pitcher, first baseman and slugger, seems to be about the only Baltimore pitcher that the fans here know so they are pick ing him to pitch The name of Thomas also is mentioned as the probable starter.
 Second only to the interest in the outcome of the series is the interest in the two star batsmen of the teams, Kirke for Louisville, and Bentley for Baltimore. Kirke this season broke the worlds record for the number of hits made during the season when be cracked the ball safelS<2 2S2 times. Bentley hit All. according to reports.
 Francis Connolly has been selected by President Hickey as the associa- tion's umpire. while Umpire McGow- an of the International league will help him out.

BULLDOG ELEVEN GIANTS HAVE WON IS WORKING HARD ONE SERIES OUT
 FOR NEXT BATTLE OF FIVE TRIALS
Howard College to Meet MiIl- SapS Eleven at Redwood
 Saturday

-~------
 The Howard Bulldogs are doing some of the hardest work of the sea son these days in preparation for the fracas at Redwood park with Mill saps college Saturday afternoon at Redwood field. The Jackson boys did not cause the Howardites much worry last season, but, according to reports floating in from the Millsap camp, the team that will play How ard this year will be 8 different team from the one that battled the Bull dogs last season.
 While the Auburn game did not put as many men on the injured list as a big clash usually does, it did pu. a few on the "bummed up" squad.
 Roberts, the tall gentleman from Oklahoma who started the game at guard for Howard Saturday, is out of play with a badly dislocated shoulder. The lanky one hopes to be back in scrimmage in about 10 days, but, while he is out, Howard will certainly be minus the services of a good man on both the defensive and offensive. Roberts was put out in the first half of the Auburn fracas. but while he was in there he played a swell game and the Tigers knew that they were working every time they tried to make gains over the territory guarded by him.
 s Cooper Injured
 Another good man who was injured in the Tiger tilt is Cooper, who played such star game at half on both the defensive and the offensive. Cooper was not knocked out of the game. but he had his ankle badly twisted, and this has kept him from practice this week and will probably slow him up some if he gets in Sat urday.
 Wee Willie" Brown. the mountain like guard of the Bulldogs, was hurt Saturday, but he has been taking good care of himself and as a re- suit reports that every ounce of his 295 pounds of flesh is all right and he should have no trouble in tear ing through the Mfllsaps line Satur- day.
 Ratliff. who is being touted as one of the best men out for a-iplace in the Howard backfield, has not had much chance this year. on account of an injured shoulder, which some ambitious scrub gave him about the third day out, IS back again with the gang and is looking good Rat Tiff is a big, rangy chap. and not only has lots of punch whenit 1t comes to driving through the line, but he is also there with the speed when it comes his turn to carry the old oval around an end.
 There arc numerous bruises ana bumps distributed evenly through the squad, but there are no serious in juries, and with the team gathering speed and getting more drive every day, it looks like Howard is in fo, prosperous season. Alabama anf Auburn are gone now. so the Bull dogs are fondly hoping for long string of victories. with the begin ming of said string starting Satur day. Howard has the best team that it has lad in years. and, with their two hardest games gone, they should begin tc pile up scores in their next games.

Shades-C ahaba to
 Meet the Bessemer
 Eleuen Thursday
By FERGUSON BASS

Shades Cahaba High school is going to have football team this year, and from the looks of the material al- ready out they are going to make the other high schools of the state work hard if they expect to do much with the husky Shades gang.
 The Cahaba boys are all big and husky. and if hard work counts for anything, they ought to be world beaters because they have been ab- sorbing sobs of work.
 The man who has charge of the coaching department of the Shades Cahaba school is John A. Acton, who played football, baseball and basket bali at Maryville college. Acton knows lot of football and should certainly be able to put out q good team with the material that he now has on hand
 The backfield. at present, is not decided upon, but it looks as though Dan. Hunter. Acton and Poole or Gould will probably-get the first call, as these five have been tearing the line open at every turn and have been outshlning their mates by a9nice dis tance. Just what position will be as- signed to these men is not easy 70 re- ulclt aS dll O1 lHeu are NtISdllle anu are liable to be put in at most any place in the backfield.
 It seems as though Shades Cahaba is going to have good line to make fopenings for the backheld, as all of the men out for line positions are hard fighters, and are fast acquiring the knack of playing the toward poe sitions. Starting at the wing posi- tions, 1t might be said that there is an abundance of material for these positions, but those who seem to be ahead in the race are Hall, Roberts, Baker, Blunt and Hunter. However. the other aspirants are trailing close behind and all of these men are go- ing good. Morrison and McDaniel look like the tackles for the sea- son, while Taft, Bag,-y and Fowler will more than likely do all of the work at guard. At preesnt Harold and Bagley are putting up a nip and tuck battle for the pivot position. and neither one seems to have much on the other.
 There is a possibility of Baker, an experienced center. returning to school and in this event the fight for center would be harder than ever.
 With the present conditions pre- vailing, Shades Cahaba is going to have a grid team that will cause ev- cry team that they meet world of trouble.
 Shades -Cahaba meets Bessemer Thursday in it's opening game.
