but Frisch, with fast hop and leap, grabbed 1t and doubled Pipp at first. Schang was an easy inffeld out, and the game was over.
 The Polo Grounds were packed. At noon most of the unreserved seats had been filled, and the start of the game was two hours off. In the last hour came the reserved ticket holders, am ong them many notab1es. Christy Mathewson was one whose entrance thrilled the crowd. Cheers heralded his walk to his seat in the press stands as only a moment before they had sig nailed the arrivel of General Pershing and baseball Commissioner Landis.
 The day was fair and so warm that many in the bleachers sat in shirt sleeves.

 Yanks Break the Ice
 Tle Yankees broke through for the first run of the game in the sixth inning after a triple by Witt had been wasted. Whitey opened the inning with a wallop to deep left but was trapped between third and home on | sv,s1 fn Ror aTs fop ged him out after a brief dash. Du- gan went to second on the play and tailed on Ruth's hard crack to right. Young juggled the ball and the Babe continued to second, but was strand ed when Kelly scooped up Pipp's ground smash and beat him to the bag. Y
 The Second Tally The Giant defense cracked in the seventh when the Yankees scored their second and final run. Bob Meusel op- ened with a single to left and dashed l to third when Nehf threw the ball in- to right center on Schang's attempt ed sacrifice, and Young followed with a tumble of the pitchers wild heave. Wards sacrifice hoist to Stengel brought in Meusel but schang held second, Scott flied out and Bush fore ed Schang to end the inning. The Giants vaunted punch the fac tor that carried the team through to victory in the final drive for the pen nant, produced the winning rally in the eighth and drove Bush, the Ameri- can leagues premier moundsman, from the box.
 The Smashing Attack
 The top end of the Giant batting order, which had been finding Bullet Joe' consistently before, but without 1 results, started the cannonade that battered down the Yankees apparent | ly winning lead. Bancroft, Groh and Frisch singled in rapid succession but smart fielding by Ruth and Bob Meu- sel held the runners to one base each dashed across to tie the score. Bush was waved from the box and Waite Hoyt, pitching hero of the series a year ago, faced Ross Young. The lit- l tie right fielder redeemed his previous lapses in the field by driving to deer left t-center, Witt taking the catch while Frisch scored easily with what proved to be the winning run. Hoyt whiffed Kelly and Stengel in rapid succession to retire the side.
 Both Bush and Nehf were effective in the first five innings, although "Bul- let Joe' was hit a trifle harder and called on to extricate himself iron several tight places. Both were back. ed up by good fielding, but while the Yankees were consistent on the de fense, the Giants wavered into tht depths and then rose to the height. of utmost brilliance at critical mo. ments.
