CrashO Eleven

By CHICK CREATION,

In what was one of the bitterest grid battles ever waged in Newfield Park, the Crashos or the West End of the city triumphed over the Lenox of the North End by a score of 14 to '. With about three minutes to play in the last period, Hurley and Mullaney of the victors, rushed the ball for twenty yard gains from the center of the gridiron to five feet from the Lenox line Then Jimmy Traynor, one of the best grdders in the city, grabbed the pigskin and plunged it over the goal line for the winning tally of the struggle. Frankie Moore kicked the goal Pat O'BoyIe scored the first touchdown for the Crashos in the second frame when he grabbed a fumbled ball and raced to the goal for 45 yards Moore sue ceSSfully kicked the goal.
 When the contest opened it looked as if the L-enoX warriors would run away with the light Crashos and so they did for the first two quarters The iLenoX made their touchdown about five minutes. after the game had started. Crashos kicked to StehIe ot the Lenox who ran the ball for 49 yards. A forward pass from Sthle to Kundrik followed which put the pigskin over for a touchdown Luddy II, LenoX T. Jake Rosenberg play ed whale of a game for the victors.

 Ray Grimes made good in his first year as a big leaguer. The former Bridgeport player. who covered first base for the Chicago Cubs in 14S games, batted at a 1920 clip, accord ing to unofficial averages.
 Grimes went to the bat 5S1 times, scored 91 runs, hit safely ITO times, including six homers.

 Mays and Neaf Lead Pitchers.
 Carl Mays was the leading pitcher in the American League, with 2l wins and defeats. In the National |, Rurleigh Grimes with 22 wins and 12 defeats was shaded by Arthur Neht of the Giants, who turned in 20 wins and 10 defeats.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1921-10-10

of the sensational thrills that has marked the others, it was interesting to watch. There was Mays, hurling hitless ball for five innings, and Phil Douglas keeping his hits fairly well scattered in the meantime. In those five innings he forced the Giants to roll easy taps to the infielders. only three balls going to the outfield. Douglas spitballs were earning him strikeouts and both teams were field ing in good form.
 Aaron Ward Stars.
 Aarpn Ward carried on his perfect work at second for the Tanks, ac- cepting nine chances without an er- TOT.
 Ruth's homer in the ninth sailed long and true to the rightfeld bleach CTS and was the one bright spot in the fading hopes of the Tank rooters. The Babes" feat was given a noisy hand. but while it enabled Babe to realize an ambition, it didn't satisfy him nearly so much as if it had scors ed two runners ahead of him.
 Jim Mutrie, who some years back organized the New York Nationals, grinned his satisfaction at the result. When Jim's team was winning a game in the old days, he remarked, "Ah. they're Giants in playing as well as giants in stature Today he said:
 'I named them well. I think they'll win, sure, now.'

 Johnson Not BoastfUI. . Johnson weighs in the neighbor- hood of 230 pounds but he asserted he could get down close to 200 in a months training period. Johnson made no boasts about being able to lick any of the heavies, but declared he was willing to fight all. He made a favorable impression before the local fight promoters.
 The management of the New Ha- ven Arena is also angling for John sons appearance in thiss tate. and the latter is going to give a sparring exhibition Wednesday morning in an Elm City gym for the purpose ot demonstrating that he is still in fight ing shape and able for a grueIline ring battle.

 There has been a lot of talk about the Giants lest and found batting eyes. Now the Tanks are having their say. The Tanks made runs out or f1ukey hits and great base running in the first two games but they were helpless in the hands of Jess Barnes on Friday and Phil Douglas yester- day Now they're sore and assert they will pound Nehf. or any other moundsman McGraw sends against them.
 Huggins' Hope Unbroken.
 My team hasn't batted anywhere close to form" declared Miller Hug gins "It is improbable that they will go through the entire series with out having several rampages. You may look for one at any time now.
 Ruths injured arm did not keep him from playing and making ms first home run of the series yester- day. and he is almost certain to play as long as he is needed. The pres ence of the Babe in the game means as much to the Tanks in a physiolog1- cal sense as it does many other way He is there with his head and his reputation even when his arms are not.
 Snyder's work behind the bat for the Giants has been impressive in the last two games.

New York, Oct. 1o.-Next to losing a ball ganfe, the players in the world series hate to face a crowd of shout ing fans that gather daily outside their club house. They would like to dodge out a rear door to the streets and sneak home by alley routes. But the rub is that there is only one exit from each club house.
 Gee look at that crowd out there, exclaimed modest Frank Frisch yes terday as he peeped out of the Giants stronghold.
 'Oh, go on out. what are you afraid of ?" yelled Phil Douglas.
 A minute later Douglas looked out. He turned back to wait until the crowd became thinner. But the crowd refused to disperse despite the efforts of a score of private policemen.

Praise for Giants.


 The Giants are playing fine base balr' in the series with the Tanks. In the first two games they were blanked with few hits. In the third contest they made 13 runs on 20 hts and yesterday they made four of their nine hits and three of their four runs all in one inning.
 The four hits in the eighth includ- Emil Meusel opened with a triple to deep left. Then came a looping sin gle by Rawlings, followed in an at tempted sacrifice by Snyder that Next a sacrifice by Douglas and line double to left by Burns. Of these Snyder's was the shortest, yet it was the turning point ot the e pitchers box and first but Mays who went for it, slipped and it went un- l fielded With the tieing run already counted this hit upset the Tanks and I it was quickly followed by Burns hit that scored two runs.
 Just like Coveleskie at his best, was a Cleveland fans compliment on Douglas pitching He said the Giant l hurler worked himself almost exactly like "Covey'' in the last years series of which he was star.
 One fan sitting near the Tank dug l out. tainted when he was hit on the foot by a foul tip during practice. He | repulsed two attendants who trled 10 1 lead him out after he had recovered, | declaring he had paid to see world series game and intended to get his 1 moneys worth
 "You had better warm up Hoyt with Mays over there," yelled the Giants from their bench to the Tanks ] in practice, meaning they meant to knock Mays out of the box. Hoyt dld warm up but not until the eighth | when Mays weak kened. The subway shott artist stuck to his task, how | ever.
