of McGraw, Stoneham and McQuade, who
conducted a general National pastiming
business.
Now Jesse's daily toll consisted of toss
ing the Old Apple to a gang Of Fellow
Employees so they could get their bat
ting eyes in condition. Once in while,
the Big Bosses would condescend to let
Jesse work against Rival firms, but not
often.

Although Iowa will clash with Pur-

YANKEES HAVE
ONLY HOYT AND
MAYS TO PITCH
Manager Higgins Unable to
Coax Amy Uelp Out of
Others.
BARNES GIANTS HERO
BY SID MERCER.

NEW YORK, Oct. 12.-If the Giants
Win the worlds series 1t will lie because
Miller Higgins could not find a third
pitcher to collaborate with Mays and
Hoyt.
McGraw found one in Jess Barnes, who
has tied Hoyt as the winning pitcher Of
the series, though starting neither IF the
games he won.
Barnes has cancelled the two defeats
Of Nehf by holding the Yanks to pair
of runs in fifteen innings while the Giants
came up and overcome fat Yank leads IN
The National League champions, there
fore can thank Barnes for drawing them
back from the abyss of q series defeat
tn six or seven games. He is no less
q hero than Waite HOyt, who has held the
Giants to one unearned run in two games;
Twice when tia Yanks knocked Fred
Toney for fat leads Barnes came In,
quietly shouldered a fOur-run handicap
IN one game and three-~un burden IN an
other and IN most woTkmanIlke manner
slew the Yanks while the Giants were
smuggling Shawkey and Quinn for the ty-
ing and winning runs.
The Yanks' hats are off to Barnes. He
turned them back.
Huggins has now combed his entire
pitching staff in vain for third winner.
Shawkey and Quinn have taken the slap
and Bill Piercy and Tom Rogers nave
pitched only three innings between them then
The Yanks must stand or fall Dehlnu
Mays and Hoyt in these last two games,
As Ethel Barrymore would say, hug
gins, when he surveys his pitchers, points
TO Mays and HOyt and exClaims: That
all there is there isn't any more"
McGraw did not lose his pitching edge
yesterday Instead he strengthened it, for
he has tied up the series again and has
his best pair of pitchers to shoot at the
two games left.
And so the thing SINNERS down to
Mays. Hoyt, Douglas and Nehf for the
third time. The pitching chaf has been
eliminated. Higgins has been forced to
concede a game which might have been
won with Mays as a relief pitcher, in
order to save his pair Of aces for the two
final deals.
In this respect McGraw is again the
better fortified leader. Mays and Doug
las have each won and lost. Their third
meeting should result in another close
score Nehf has lost twice and Hoyt has
won twice Should they meet for third
game which now seems likely, the law
of averages almost demands that Nehf
should get the breaks. He pitched two
wonderful games, though he lost both.
But here is the rub: MCGraw is lay
ing back with Barnes, pitcher who has
proved he can stop the Yanks. Barnes
will be available as a relief pitcher to-
morrow. Back of him 10 Fat Shea, a
youngster who is fairly aching 10 hop
iEtO the fray and grab off an overnight
reputation Higgins has no Barnes and
his young pitchers are unreliable.

WORLDS SERIES PICK-UPS

Emil Meusel's home run off Harper
went into the right field seats, which is
q long drive for a righthand batsman.
Snyder and Fewster also are right hand
ers and they pulled their drives over
into the left field stand.
Neither of the catchers had a put-out
except on strike-outs. There was not a
foul fly that could be caught, nor was
any runner thrown out at the plate.
Betting made the Giants a to q
favOrite today for the championship.
Some even money was being offered that
the National Leaguers would finish the
Yanks in two more games and end the
series. Confronted with the necessity OF
pitching Mays and HOyt without their
usual rest and with Babe Ruth out for
the series the outlook was anything
but bright for the Yanks.
Chick Fewster came into the league as
potential $4,000 ball player. He was
hit in the head with a pitched ball from
the arm of the powerful Pfefer, of the
Brooklyn club, during an exhibition game
down South one spring, and almost
killed He has hole IN his head, but
substitute Tuesday as well as the great
Ruth himself could have played.
From the second inning on Tuesday
Jess Barnes gave an exhibition of pitch
ing such as is seen seldom. In seven
innings he held the Yankees to two hits
In that same time he struck out nine men.
AS he had struck out another before that
he wound up with a .Otal of ten strike
outs. He famed every man on the Yam
kee club once and Aaron Ward twice.
Ed Walsh hung up a strike-out record in

in 1906.
