With their pennant already won and
nothing on their minds but their caps.

first game of the world series. south
paving about as well as he had to, the
Giants gamboled gleefully to victory
season with the Cardinals at the Polo
Grounds yesterday afternoon.
Branch Hickey. in an endeavor to
save third money for the once proud
st. Louis club. again called on Jess
Haines, who worked here last Satur-
day. but the right handed curve ball
artist was shelled out of the park with
a terrific bombardment which netted
three runs and broke a 3-all tie in
the fifth inning. AS Haines got the
recall he sneered vigorously at Hickey.

and your guesses as to the identity OF
the sluggers and the haven OF the
mauled pellets are absolutely wrong.
The astonished and astonishing boys
who turned in the four base drives

Bilps Ties 1t in Fourth.
Cunningham's home run, coming in
the wake OF a single by Long George
Kelly, tied the score for the world
champions in the fourth, at to ..
Groh's crash with one gone and nobody
on, won the blooming ball game in the
fifth. That wallop of Heinies put
lIaines on the toboggan. Frankie Frisch
followed with a fly to Joe Schultz, but
Irish Meusel gave new life to the rally

not want to act too suddenly and shock
Hainess delicately arranged nervous
system. All of Branch's polite and COM
functions disappeared when the rougn
Kelly chipped large hunk out of the
right field wall with a three bagger and
sent In two runs.
Three cmissaries then dashed out to
Ainsmth and brought back the sour
tidings. Haines was as thoroughly done
as venerable hot dog which has been
frying all afternoon on Coney Island
xriddle. The game was halted and rock
cts were sent up for Lou North, who
was busy talking to Clemons In the
hullpen. When Haines received the
staggering news that he really had been
knocked out of the box he bilked the
National Exhibition Company TO the ex-
tent OF one perfectly good basebail ana

Omcer Mann IL Joshed.
One of the many added attractions
nut on by the jolly Giants In their spirit
of carnival was a joshing act. with
Of1icer Leslie Mann in the role OF the
hsrassed Oflcer Mann will be recol-
lected as the bird who got Phil Doug
las's foolish letter Led by Casey Stem
gel. who was out Of the festivities with
charley horse. divers Giants kept up
:, stream OF chatter which reused Mann
to lighting pitch.
Some of the stuff must have been
funny for ever the austerc Bill KLEIN
cracked an occasional smile. AS Mann
works only against left handlers he had
not appeared in the three previous
games. and the boys were ready for him
with a strong line.
The New Yorks were up to their old
trick Of spotting the other fellows 1T

run in the f1rst when Mann was safe
on Bancroft's excusable boot, went TO

But the Giants would not be shaken
and got their tie with the help of Cum

played mighty snappy ball In the field,
too. Bannie cut down couple OF hits
right over second. Frisch ran half a
mile while hts cap flew of and caught
Gainor's foul in the sixth. and Young
made one OF those uallapaloosa catches
