Special Dispatch to THE Nrw YORK HERALD.
DALLAS Tex, March 26.--Let a ball
player take a present on the field and
he IS linked. Let whole club take
bunch Of gifts and it might as we'll
throw its bats away and wait for the
hoodoo TO crack 1t on its collection VI
ivory. That long established truth was
impressed upon the well known Giants
with striking force this afternoon when
they tackled the somewhat famous White
sox in the sixth game Of their series
of fourteen.
After receiving their long delayed
world championship emblems from Judge
Lands and being patted on the back
by his nibs the Commissioner while
more than 5000 Texans beloved their
most enthusiastic huzzahs. the New
Yorks. with Art Nehf pitching in his
best left handed way. went right out
and showed the fans that they were
well deserving of the emblems and any
other stray honors which anybody
might want to heap on them.
But pride goes before fall. and
jinxes are not to be trifled with or de-
MED. The old hoodoo got them in the
end. With two runs needed to tie in the
last half of the ninth the White
Sox not only got the two runs but
crashed in another and won the old
thing by s to z. There was much cheer
ing. Harvey Mcclellan, whose double
did all the damage, again was hero.
Praise for the Champions.
The presentation of the emblems was
staged at the homo plate. The Judge
told the Giants how great they were
and how much baseball was proud OF
them and what great game 1t was
anyway. Then somebody dug into box
and began to bring out paper covered
packages one at a time.
John McGraw might have got his first
and then Capt. Bancroft, but the Fates
handed the honor of getting the first to
frankie Frisch. who blushed violently
and almost lost his cap. Out they came
until everybody on to-day's nine had got
one except Heinie Groh. who spent last
season in Cincinnati. where no world
series was won. Bancroft dashed over
to the side lines TO present his emblem
to his wife. who also blushcd. With
pride.
The memento takes the form OF a
watch charm. rather heavy and big
gold one, with diamond embodied I'm
a lower corner. On the back there Is
a legend which says that II has been,
presented by the Commissioner Of Base
ball In addition to the charms each
player will get a check for something
like $50, which had been deducted for
the New York State Income Tax, but
has been returned to all except Frisch
of Fordham
AS for the game. It was a blooming
shame that the Giants had to go out
and chuck II away after the fine pitch
ing they got from Nehf in the first five
innings and the splendid way In which
they collected their runs. Five Of the
New York tallies were driven in by
homo runs There were three circuit
clouts. every one OF them over the right
field fence.
Three Circuit CIouts.
Frisch, Smith and Meusel were the cir
cult slammcrs. The Fordham Flash
bounced his drive off skating rink
after Young had walked in the fourth.
Smith sent his homer to the roof OF the
rink in the third and Meusel cracked
his big one off the walls OF that self
same structure so hard that the leather
bounded back into the field. That hap
pened in the eighth and also scored
Frisch, who had reached first on a nun
by Hooper.
The Giants banged the ball right lust
lily off the delivery OF Charley Robertson,
late of Minneapolis. They had the Sox
outficlders dashing to the fences time
and again. and those outfelders made
some brilliant catches.
But the Giants lost. all the more pity.
