'PROxIESv' AT GALAx
 HAS ORIGINAL STORY

Proxies" the Galax picture for the remainder of the week, is the story or an ex-convict who is employed in the home of wealthy family. Hand some and debonair, he attracts the interest of the daughter of the house, and from then on come many interesting incidents. The girl hap pens to be engaged to very attrac- tive young man, and it is a matter of suspense during the entire unfoId- ing of the picture as to which of the two men is what is conventionaIly termed the hero"
 This Gaiax offering Is certainly different While it deals in the TO- nance of an ex-crook and a girl. his ex-pal, 1t is not at all like the reg ular crook story, but has a happy, good-humored vein running through tho romantic moments. The produc- ton is good, and the thread of mys- tery and suspense that runs until the very last moment is cleverly han dled, so that there is no guessing the outcome.

NEW YORK, Oct. 12.-The Giants
and Yankees were keyed up a semi
tone or so above normal today for the
seventh game of the world series, tied
at three games all by the Giants, to
6 victory yesterday after a week OF
warfare at the Polo grounds.
They seemed to think that tricky
something called the break in the
game would make its appearance this
afternoon and point out the ultimate
victor in the championship struggle.
Whoever wins today will be one vic
tory away from the throne, while the
lowers must take the next two games
in succession to become baseball
champions OF the world,
Carl Mays will be sent against the
awakened Giants today, Manager Hug
gins said to be followed tomorrow by
Waite Hoyt who permitted the Nation
al leaguers only one run in Is innings.
Shuffin Phil Douglas is the likely
choice of McGraw Should this big
spit ball artist be put to work this aft
ernoon it will be the third time he has
opposed Mays. They pitched the start

the second inning, but the players
were surprisingly calm in their re-
action to these wallops just as if
banging the ball into the outlying Sec

to make fuss over. When z. Meusel

plate and walked to the dugout. Raw

heavy artillery passed the returning
hero in silence without so much as
offering salute of recognition. Even
the bat boys nod of approval seemed
perfunctory. 1t used to be that play
could not go on until the home run
maker had been congratulated by all
his teammates, but that simply is
not being done these days. The homer
that Snyder poled a moment later the
players appeared to accept without
particular enthusiasm and this also

when Fewster put the Yanks ahead

arm and the substitute got several
long flies far from his position that
Babe might not have reached because
of his sore leg.
