BULLETIN:

Washington, Aug. g. Definite assurances were given here today by rail union heads that there will not be a formal general railroad strike.
 With complete failure forecasted for all settle ment proposals so far ad- vanced, this assurance dart ed out from the constantly darkening industrial sky
 as the one bright ray of
 hope against absolute par
 alysis of the courstry's
 railway systems.
 From urimpeachable
 sources it was leaDned that
 the ranks of the strikers
 will be augmented after ; the Friday meeting, but not {. by formal strike call.

Newlirk.
 Other shifts announced they would quit work during the day unless the soldiers were recalled.
 Meanwhile the troops continue to do guard duty. Col. Nelson Morris, in command, stated he was acting under orders from his superiors and had no authority to recall his men until the orders were countermand- ed.
 Feverish Situation.
 The situation was tense here to- day.

SMALL ROWING
SQUAD IN VIEW

Fewer Report for Shells De-
spite Lighter Restrictions
at Cornell.

ITHACA, n. Y, Oct. 9.-For rea-
sons not yet disclosed. registration
for the Cornell crews is lighter this
year than for some time. This does
not mean that the lthacans are in
danger Of suffering next winter and
spring from a scarcity of rowing ma
terial. The squad already up num-
bers 234. and as four Of last years
fine varsity crew are in college,
Coach Hoyle will not be handicap
ped. But the disparity between the
rowing squad this year and last Is
nevertheless large enough to attract
attention.
For instance, last year the total
squad was 3l9; in 1920 1t was 2S4.
This year it is 234. Freshman ma
terial is not as plentiful as usual,
but some OF II looks good. and Coach
Hoyle will boat a number Of combi.
nations next week.
Interesting data bearing on the
amount of work accomplished in a
rowing season and the long and tedi.
Gus preparation required to boat a
crew for the Poughkeepsie regatta
was revealed in the official log Of the
Cornell navy for last June. This
showed that the varsity crew last
spring rowed total OF 6S6 miles,
divided as follows: "a days at
Ithaca, sos miles: 3 days at Derby.
IL miles; 9 days at POughkeepsie. 76
miles: total Sc days. 6S6 miles. This
takes no account OF the months of
grind on the rowing machines.
The Junior varsity eight rowed
a total of ESQ miles and the fresh.
men 663 miles, The varsity four,
composed of substitutes, rowed 167
miles in twenty.eight days; the third
varsity crew, 445 miles in sixty-oue
DAYS. The combined mileage of the
regular combinations that rowed out
Of the Cornell varsity boathouse. the
real rowing squad. totals $3.50 miles.
Other organized crews rowed a total
OF 700 miles, while the intercollegiate
crews. II is estimated, rowed 1880

the total rowing mileage was well
over 5000 miles

Rather the Giants is a star team.
That means that the Giants play
as a well-knit. brilliantly working
organization. with every member
playing not for himself. but for the
team.
All the flashing fielding, the light
ming quick decisions in base run
ming. the terrific slugging that was
exhibited during the past series
was done not merely with a thought
to the single play involved, but Of
cooperation with the rest.
Breaks count with them, natur.
ally, as with every other base
ball team, but the aggressive
Giants don't always wait for the
breaks. They go out and make
them for themselves.
1t Is moreover, an organization in
which every member Is dependable.
particularly in a tight pinch.
think the series showed the Giants
to be playing great ball in every
phase Of the game-batting, fielding.
base running. AS for the pitching,
all you have to do Is look oyer the
Yankee column Of hits during the
series games. to find out whether we
had any good pitchers.
We went into the series with the
dope all figured against US. We
come out of II indisputably the in.
vincible team in both leagues. We
just went and reversed all the pre-
dictions that had been made.
Yesterday I think the team gave
as good an account Of itself as in
any game II played in. Twice we
were behind, and twice we forged
our way ahead because we hit and
fielded with telling effect. Untr
Yesterday, Frisch held the record
for the most difficult catches in the
series.
In the final game, Groh, who
distinguished himself throughout
by his hitting, dived across the
third bag and caught bail whaled
out by Pfpp, hanging up a record
for world series games.
The series was unlike any other
can recall, in that each side used
four pitchers in succession and then
began rotating. The other unusual
feature, OF course, is that we won It
by banking the American League
champions. which believe happened
only twice before in baseball history
Perhaps now that we have won
such a triumph, It will be conceded.
even by those who had 1t all figured
out before the games started that we
would be whitewashed. that Manager
McGraw Is still able to put up a team
that knows how to play baseball, and
that he can come through with a few
pitchers, who know how to hurl the
ball.
We have beaten the team that ad
mittedly had the heaviest sluggina
aggregation in the American League.
ana which was credited with the
best pitchers. We take a justifiable
pride In winning over such a team.
