vengeance, or the money paid as q
reward for bringing about the death
of another, directly or through evil
dence. II was once common among
the Scandinavian and Teutonic PEG
pies who called this money payment
wergild The price varied with the
nature of the crime and the rank of
the victim. Certain crimes, such as
the Staying of a sleeping person. could
not be compensated by a money pay

outlaws and could be slain with i'm

World Champions - Yank
Manager Hopes He
Won't Hit
LIKE KELLY DID
Kelly Singles and Scores Two Men
Ending First Shut Out World Ser
les in II Years-Last Game Score
5 TO 3.
BY HENRY /. FARRELL

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
New York, Oct. 9-The New York
Giants me the champions of the
world for the second successive time
Beaten as only two teams have
been beaten in previous world series,
the New York Yankees have only
one title-Amcrican League cham
pions-and that by a shade of one
game.
Back in 1907 the Detroit Tigers
lost to the Chicago Cubs without win
ming a game; in 1914 the Philadelphia
Athletics dropped four straight games
to the Boston Braves; this year the
best the Yankees 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 enabling the Giants to
take the last game So after it SEEM
ed certain that the Yankees mac
broken the spell that hovered around
them.
With a concerted attack and a hit
and run offensive that worked like an
air hammer, the national league
eighth inning and broke the heart Of
the YankS. The Yanks, beyond doubt
were not working with their diminu-
tive manager. They quaTeled with
him en- masse, il is reported, just be-
the second. Where McGraw was
broadcasting confidence to every
Giant, the Yankees had their anten-
nae tuned for a far different wave
length than that on which Huggins
was sending.
Higgins is a smart manager, but
he was out of his element trying tc
steer a team ike the Yanks to vic
tory over NcGraw's men. In the final
game Of the les, which the Giants
won yesterday So, Huggins used
what seemed like good judgment in
passing Young, filling the bases and
bringing George Kelly to bat with
two out and run needed to tie
Young had proved he could hit in a
pinch; Kelly had given evidence that
he probably wouldn't. He had failed
in pinches once or twice, but did he
this time?
Like Kelly did.
The single that sang out over the
infield and rolled to center field while
two Giant runners clattered home,
sang the swan song of Huggins one
smart play Of all the Yankee hopes
and Of the biggest worlds series fail
