Schang and Rnsh have been battery
mates in their world lseries expert
ence with three American League
clubs. They had their first test with
the Athletics u 1913. when the Mack
men defeateIthe Giants.
They were with the. Athletics. in
1914. when the Boston Braves took
four straight games from the Mack
men. After lapse of several years
they broke into the title struggle in
1913 with the Red Sox and became
cogs in the Yankee pennant machine
in .ls21.
This years series will be the fifth
for two other Yankees-Everett Scott,
shortstop. and Carl Mays,
pitcher. Scott was with the Red Sox
in 1915, 1916 and 1918. but did not
Join the Yankees until 1922 Mays
was with the Red Sox In 1916 and
1918, in addition to the three xicto-
rfous Yankee teams.
Dave Bancr1st. captain and short
stop OF the eSHants, has had more
series experience than any member Of
the world champions. He was with
the pennant- winning Philadelphia Ma
tionals in 1915, in addition to the
three triumphant Giant machines.
Casey Stengel and HiniN Groh will

ODDS ON SERIES FALL;
YANKS STILL FAVORED


+ NEW YORK. October Odds on
the series shifted yesterday from 6 to
5 On the Yankees TO II to 10. The
$4,000 offered by house on Broad
street at to 5 was covered by Giant
money. followed by so many other re-
quests for like bets by McGraw parts
sans that the ODDS changed to II TO 10.
: The report that Babe Ruth is suffer-
ing from minor injuries has showed
down the odds on the American
League champions. One firm has $4,000
to offer at even money that Ruth will
hit a home run during the series and
$1,000 to bet against $4,000 that
either of the contestants will win
four games in a row.
A house on Broad street predicts
even money wagering before the end
of the week. The majority of small
betters favor the Giants. While plung-.
ers lean to- the Yankees. Freak bets

From then on. neither team did any
thing worth while until the ninth.
Then Donaghue's two-bagger, Burns
sacrifice and Menosky's single netted
the Red Sox a tally off Russell. A
