oepeQ tue SITUATION out, Nas a'he
The game was the third Of the
"Sunior worlds SERIES" which is ex-
peetcd to forecast fairly accurately the
winner of the American League pen
nAnf. The victory of the Yankees yes
terdAy put them one full game ahead
Of Cleveland and gave them the edge
ia the present series, which now STANDS
two to one in their favor. If the IN
dams are to break even they must take
this afternoons contest. If they don't
play any better than they did yester-
day they won't take anthlng but the
train for Chicagoy.
For the most part the contest looked
like game between the married men
and the single men at College Point
eIanbake with a keg OF Pilsner on third
base. The Yankees pounded out an as
sortment OF twenty hits, ranging from
scratchy singles to far-fung home
runs, the latter being made by wilson
Fewster, who went to left teld IN place
of Babe Ruth in the seventh inning
and Bob Meusel, the lethargic fign'
fielder
Bobs Twenty-fourth Homer
II was Bob's twenty fourth circuit
swine. His blow Yesterday came in the
seventh inning with two on oases.
Fewster's wallop was delivered IN the
a;-,1h IN the frst ball pitched to him.
Both elouts were made Off Bob clark,
n younrster who came to Cle'eiaho
from the Toledo club.
When the Yankees weren't making
hits the Indians were making errors,
and in this way the merry go-rouho
was kept going until fans ana players
alike were dizzy. In the second ana
fourth innings the Yanks slammed out
th;rteen hits for total of thirteen
runs. which were more than enough
10 win the game.
The veteran Ray Caldwell, once. a
Yank himself, started the bizarre affair
for the visitors, but was blown out OF
the picture in the second inning by
Wild volley of resounding wallops.
Speaker then introduced Duster Mails
with his special delivery, and the Yanks
liked him just as we'll as they did Cald-
we'll. Duster was busted off the mound
in the fifth and Bob Clark was dragged
out Of the bull pen to pitch to the
Yankee batters.s
Bob could do nothing to stem the
horsehide torrent that gushed from the
plate. The Yankees manhandled him
also. They played TO favorites yester-
day. Bob bcbbed about in the swirl
ing typhoon while the local gunners
took pot shots at him until they had
added five more totally unnecessary
runs.
Carl Mays twirled for the Higgins
crew, and won a game that he couldn't
have lost if he had wanted to. 1t was
his twenty sixth victory this season.
he was touched up for a total of thr-
teen hits, and that no more than seven
runs were scored off him is due to some
sparkling support he received when it
seemed as though the Indians were 60
ing to stage a star-spangled jamboree
of their own. Ward and Pipp starred
in the defensive work, the latter max
ing several run-killing plays at criti-
cal moments.
$4,000 See the Game
There were $4,000 persons in the
famous old stadium when the teams
took the field. AS many more were
turned away, and officials of the club
estimated that $4,000 seats could have
been filled had they been available. 1t
was necessary to close the gates at
12:40, and after that hour only per-
sons holding reserved seats were ad
mitted. More than $50 mounted police
and patrolmen were thrown about all
approaches to the grounds, and they
established lines through which nona
could pass without tickets or creden-
tiaIs. Four ticket spectators were ar
rested by detectives attached to In
spector Cahalane's staff. They were
said to be in possession of large blocks
Of tickets.
The big crowd was in holiday mood
and came armed with tin horns and
other instruments of torture There
was only one real disturbance during
the afternoon, however, and that came
when a lady who had been unable to
fine. a seat suddenly discovered her
husband entering one of the lower tier
boxes with youthful blonde on his
arm. The ensuing fracas appeared to
amuse the crowd immensely. The wife
is said to have asked waivers on the
hush nd
drizzling rain fell at intervals dur
ing the rst four innings, but it failed
te interfere with the game, although
the wet ball probably accounted for
several of the six errors rolled up ny
