HEBREWS OBSERVE
FEAST OF SUCC0TH

Succoth, or the Feast of Taber-
nacles, was ushered in last evening
in the temples and synagogues and
will be observed by Hebrews for
eight days.
The first and eighth days consti-
tute the holy convocations among
the reformed. Orthodox congrega-
tions, however. celebrate the first
two days as well as the two con-
Guiding days of the festival. The in
tervening days are observed with
semi-rellgious ceremonials.
Temporary booths, decorated with
fruits, vegetables and greens, are
in the rear Of homes
by some Hebrews. In religious
schools celebration OF the feast is
marked by pageant and harvest fes-
tival entertainments.

NEW YORK. oct. THE shades
of night were falling fast upon the
world series homestead where Jawn
nfoGraw and his happy. family had
spent so many happy days
Huggins. the hard-hearted land
lord, was knocking at the door with
a mortgage in his hand and four
husky sherifrs. Bush. Jones, Hoyt
and Shawkey at his heels.
"Who would save the dear old
Homestead for honest Jawn Nc

Some months a weary youth
dragged No. ~ feet and a very sore

the long shadows cast by the L.

Jocko SCOTS Victory
is Big Break of Series;
Yankees Seem All In

I Scott pitched yesterday with con-
summate courage and he has lived
year on the same virtue. Since
the close of last season when he was
regarded as a good pitcher his crops
on his Ridgeway farm went bad, his
barn burnt down and his arm went
lame. He had a wife and a little
one and he had to fight for living.
He was out of a job and McGraw
staked him to $50 when he came to
the Giants looking for any kind of
work around the Polo Grounds. He
nursed his arm back and he nursed
so we'll that he jumped into etardom.
Bad feeling between the Giants
and the Yanks which did not creep
above the surface in the series last
year, because evident in yesterdays
game when Babe Ruth crashed into
Heinie Groh at third base and knock
ed the Giant star head over heels.
Babe later told Groh that he was
squaring up for an incident in the
first game when Groh went into
Erin" Ward at second base with
his spikes up in the air.
The Giant dugout famed Ruth so
much that he went into the National
Leaguer's dressing room after the
game and wanted to clean out the
place. Some OF the Giants kidded
the Babe out of his bad humor and
trouble was averted.
Some OF the most ardent admirers
OF the Yankees were beginning to
forsake the cause today
They charged the team with lack
ing courage and with being out
gained in the tightplaces.

NEW YORK. Oct. 7-CUnited
Press. Sad gloomy weather here
today refiec<ed the spirit and position
of the New York Yankees who have
failed to win one game yet in the
world series battle with the New
York Giants and who have used up
their three best pitchers.
The Giants have won two games.
Jocko scott's surprising victory
over the American League champions
yesterday. was taken by many critics
to have been the big break OF the
series. The Giants were. a TO 1
favorite in the betting today to win
the championship.
With a team that inclined to curl
yesterday under few bad breaks
and with Bush. Schawkey and Hoyt
pitching great ball. Miller Higgins
was up against as tough a proposition
to keep the Yankees from kicking
away another worlds championship.
After the exhibition of the Yankees
yesterday the New York fans were
kicking themselves all over the town
because they let lot of to 8
Yankees money go begging four days
ago.
One OF the biggest of the events
Of the day not carded in the pro-
gram will take place in the Giant
clubhouse when Jocko Scott. the
huge North Carolina farmer, gets a
look at a new contract.
Scott has been with the Giants for
three months. He drew his pay on
a game basis. when he won he
got some money and when he lost he
Just wasted an afternoon.
Being the outstanding star OF the
series and the pitcher who seems TO
have assured the Giants OF another
worlds championship. he no doubt
will see a better sum on the new
contract than the $4,000 he was get
ting when the Cincinnati Reds gave
him the air after an X-ray had been
shown to prove that his arm was just
A farmers arm and had no pitching !
In II.
Evening journal., 1922-10-07

There is a chance that they will
go II, but IN all probability the
game will be called at the end of
the tenth.
Going into the eleventh will be
counting danger. II the first half OF
the inning should drag and the
Giants should happen to score a run,
the Yankees would be at a distinct
disadvantage while at bat IN the
last half.
Tho Polo Grounds is the hardest
grounds in either league TO see on.
The shadow OF the stands is much
more of a handicap to the batsman
than the fielder. The haze that Is
fast settling over the playing field
doesn't help. neither does the back
ground of a sea OF faces in center
field.
Just then ole Smith OF the Giants.
pinch hitting, dropped to the ground
on a pitched ball that cut the heart
OF the plate.
Guess you are right about the
visibility of this place." said Cobb
as Smith put on his acrobatic stunt.
The shock OF the decision is what
caused the uproar. II the umpires
had only held a conference at the
plate before making the announce
ment, the crowd would have been
prepared to receive the ruling.

In the third inning after Whitley

Jocko Scott, boy hero to find the

Scott, by the dawn's early light. saw
Whitley some feet off the bag trying
to borrow a hashhght from Umpire

Of fandom steered Whitley back to
the bench.
By the fifth inning the shadow OF
the grandstand had crept TO the
pitchers box and Scott permitted
another base hit. Shortly after the

Darkness is the toughest condition

the stands with a capacity crowd.
The series has survived its scandal.
And to strain our metaphor a bit Il
looks as though the present worlds

The Giants should win four
straight.
Not on paper. perhaps, but the
level greensward OF the Polo
Grounds. where they are showing
brand OF winning baseball that
makes the Yankee efforts appear
half hearted.
McGraw's men give the impress
sion they are employing heart as

IS electricity in the air-an impress

The shades of night had no place
on the program at the Polo Grounds
Friday. Any umpire who was afraid
TO go home in the dark was safely
chez iui before the sun had ceased
TO function.
The game was played partly be-
