AMERICAN LEAGUERS
HERE ON SATURDAY

The Bacharach Giants, who went
to considerable expense to lease Har-
Ian Field for the season, and who
served up a superior brand Of ball
during their stay, VIII close the sea-
son on next Saturday with the feat
ure attraction of the year. John
Brand. one of Connie Mack's lieu
tenants. will bring the American
League All-Stars here for a game
on that day with the Bacharachs.
The Giants have not been success
full financially in their endeavor. Bad
weather breaks as on last Saturday
when they were booked to meet the
Delaware All-Stars, have worked
against them. The Bacharachs man
agement has sought some of the
best attractions in the country here
for local fans. and Saturdays tussle
with the American League All-Stars
will top off their efforts. A large
crowd should greet this final and
feature attempt.
The American League All-Stars
will be comprised of select portions
of the Athletics's MACHINE with sew

the circuit. They gave the Balti-
moro Orioles a trimming.

The reversal Of form shown by the

UNITED Press staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-The New
York Giants are the champions OF
the world for the second successive
time.
Beaten as only two teams have
been beaten in previous worlds
series, the New York Yankees have
only one title-American League
champions and that by a shade OF
one game.
Back in 1907 the Detroit Tigers
lost to the Chicago Cubs without
winning a game; in 1914 the Phil
adelphia Athletics dropped four
straight games TO the Boston
Braves; this year the best the Yam
KEGS could get from the Giants was
one tie game.
The same punch In the pinch that
had brought them from behind in
the other games enabled the Giants
to take the last game. TO 8. after
it seemed certain that the Yankees
had broken the spell that lowered
around them. With a concerted at
tack and a hit and run offensive
that worked like an air-hammer,
the National League champions
scored three runs in the eighth in
ming and broke the heart OF the
Yankees as well as winning the
game and the series.
1t was a blow by George Kelly.
the long first baseman of the Giants,

STOP that always produced the punch
even when left fat before the start,
oozed from each Giant like ecto-
plasm from a medium. When they
went to bat. there was electricity In
the air. One sensed runs coming.
In the field they went after every
thing
Now when ball club gives this
kind of service behind pitching such
as Art Nehf, Hugh MoQuillan, Jess
Barnes and last, but greatest, Jack
Scott produced, there is little rea-
son to wonder why they win. The
Giants, playing as they did in the
1922 series. with the same breaks,
probably would have beaten any
club IN baseball.
But the Yankees, harsh though
It sounds to say, weren't even a ball
club. They appeared to be merely
a collection of Indifferent, careless,
overrated stars. Ieaderless and with
out the will to win. They actually
gave the Impression OF not caring
whether they won or not.
Probably they did because the
losers share in the series provided
only 1925 for each player. and this

In the minds OF many, on the part
OF Manager Higgins that made 1t
possible for Kelly to get his crack
at the ball. 1t was generally doped
around the circuit last year that
Kelly didn't have courage in a tight
place and when Young came to the
bat in the eighth with two on, Hug
gins ordered him passed to bring
up Kelly with the bases filled.

Young was passed and Kelly got
a smashing single to center to win
the game. Bush figured that Young
had not been able to hit him be-
fore, while Kelly had three singles
Off him and he wanted to pitch TO
Young.
The Giants won the series be-
cause they played smarter and more
aggressive ball. because they IN
harder and didn't get the shivers in
the pinches. They got all the breaks
but there Is an old axiom that a
winning club makes its own breaks.
The Yankees were beaten because
they ran the bases worse than
bunch of semi-pros. because they
played stupid ball and rushed head
long into some OF the oldest traps
known to baseball but principally
because they were not game enough
TO fight when the tide was going
against them.

In the final game OF the series
with the Giants yesterday, Higgins
used what seemed like good Judg-

to tie. Young had proved he could

vogue all over the world, which GER
tainIy has drawn attention to a
great social evil. 1t must be borne
in mind that 'Ten Nights in a Bar

heart-interest story dealing with a

the spiritual agency of a little child.
There are many interesting sketches

spectacular interludes; notably, the
very exciting struggle between some
of the characters on logs on the
