NEW RECORDS CERTAIN
Hugmen May Equal Mark and Me- Grawites Have Chance to Establish New Baseball Standard.

New York, Oct. 3.--one new world series record will result from the coming tilt between the New York Giants and Tanks while the McGraw men will have an opportunity to cre- ate another and the Higgins clan may equal one now in the record books.
 The new record that is assured is the meeting of the same clubs for the third year in succession. The nearest approach to this mark was when the Chicago Cubs and Detroit Tygers met in the series of 1907 and 1908. the Tygers won again the next year, but the Pittsburgh Pirates broke the reign of the Cubs in the National league and then gave Jennings men their third straight series setback.
 If the Giants win this year, it will be the third worlds championship in succession for McGraw's club, feat no other pennant winner has ever ac- complished. In the event the Yam kees also would tie automatically, the record of losing three series in row, now held by the Giants and Tygers. The Giants lost in 1911 and 1913 to the Philadelphia Athletics and in 1912 to the Boston Red Sox.

Graws theory with only ordinary sue. 1 cess It doesn't seem to be so positive over the long route. In the two world series between the Giants and the Tanks, Ruth has tight ened up. His only ambition was to knock the ball out of the lot. He took a terrific swing at every ball pitched Slow ball pitching Is poison to such style.
 Match Wits With McGraw
 During the American League sea- son, the moment pitcher slowed up on Ruth, he shifted his position aid swing. He attempted to time the ball rather than swing wildly.
 Ruth must enter the coming series feeling that a timely single with a couple on the bases is worth more than home run with the sacks emp ty. Ruth, instead of playing into Me Graw's hands. by swinging wildly at every pitch. must try to outguess Me- Graw, the master strategist.

RUTH, ONCE BAD BOY OF
 BASEBALL, NOW IS LEADER
Yankees Attack Now Is Centcre,l Around This Formidable, Hard
 Hitting Outfelder.

New York. Oct. 3.--overshadowine
 even the excellent team play. the
 sterling work Of the pitching stan and
 tho uncanny field defense of the New
 York Yankees. American league pen
 nant winners this season, were the
 performances of Babe Ruth. the years star of stars in the major leagues.
 Called the "Incorrigible Boy Of Baseball" because of his display Of temperament in 1921 and 1922, Ruth came back to the game this year with but one idea-to give his best. He has not been the home-run hitter he was in 1921, but the all-time record for circuit swats in a season was set with his fifty-nine. But he has not been out of the game because of boyish pranks. and his all-around play has surpassed anything he has shown be- fore.
 Ruth has been the greatest indi- Wdual asset in the present Yankee combination of stars and is being &c., lected by many baseball writers as the greatest individual player of the season on any team. He has hit home runs aplenty, but not as many as in 1921. His batting record, however, close around the 400 mark all sea- son, is filled with singles, doubles and that came when men were on base and runs needed. He has been such terror at bat that the of intentional bases on balls given him by oposing pitchers has set ] new record.
 Around Ruth-the new Ruth-the Yankee attack has been clustered | the season. Taking their | ,ue from him the other members of he team settled into a perfect com with the result that the club las won the pennant with one of the ,reatest winning margins on record.

John McGraw versus Babe Ruth.
 There you have the battery for tho coming world series.
 Can John McGraw, manager of the New York Giants. outguess Babe Ruth. baseball's king of swat" the big threat of the New York Yankees?
 Sitting in the dugout, far from the view of the thousands Of fans who attended the series last year. Manager New York Giants. It was McGraw who outgucssed Ruth and the rest of the Yankees. making it possible for the New York Giants to win its second world series in q row.
 On every ball pitched in the 1922 world series Citcher Frank Snyder glanced in the direction of the Giant bench before he crouched down to world series, Catcher Frank Snyder was looking to Manager McGraw for instructions.
 McGraws Word is Final
 Tho supposition is that McGraw gave the final decision on every ball pitched. Some experts argued that only in the pinch did he pass the sig nals to Snyder. Even so,, he accom- plished his purpose, for he had the Tanks paying more attention to him than the pitching.
 McGraw, in the 1923 clash with the Tanks will again occupy the same seat in the Giants dugout, Frank Snyder or Hank Gowdy, who will probably lo the catching for the Giants, will be looking toward the bench as was the custom in the last series.
 The theory of McCiraw is that Ruth cannot hit pitcher with good curve, who is able to slow up. Give Ruth a diet of slow ball pitching with a curve mixed in, keping the ball low and outside and you have him stopped says McGraw
 Slow Ball Ruth's Weakness
 There is no secret about McGraw's | theory. Ruth can go into the series to look at lot of slow ball pitching. Incidentally, if it is neces- ,ary to use a fast ball. make him hit | , bad one, is McGraw's orders to his | pitchers.
