Giants Again Win
World Championship

New York, Oct. 8 (By the Asso-
ciated Press).--The New York
Giants once more are champions of
the world. They reached that pin
nacle of success for the second con-
secutive year in furious uphill rush
this afternoon that flung the Yanks
to defeat, to 8, and crushed dis
gusted pitcher, Bullet Joe Bush.
1t was the secon successive time
the Yanks have bucked the Giants in
a worlds series and failed. This
year they went down ingloriously
without the solace of having cap
tured one of the five games that COM
prised the battle for the title. All the
Yankees could do was to tie the sec.
ond game of the series. The Giants
won the other four.

laps each pilot should bring his ma
chine down to the water and tavi
ever a 1900 foot stretch before max
ing hairpin turn and again taking
