|NGOTS READY
FOR DUPONTS
Close Season on Saturday
in Game With ParIin Rep
reSentativeS

The Raritan Copper Works base
ball team will lock horns with the
Dupont nine of Parlin on the Rari-
tan Copper Works field this Saturday
afternoon. This is the deciding con-
test of a three game series and both
plants will have their strongest col
lection of tossers in attendance. This
will be the last game for the local
team.
In the first game of this series the
Ingots downed the colors of the
Parlin nine and the latter tossers
evened matters when the two teams
met in a return encounter on the
Parlin field. Kuran for Amboy, and
Hart for Parlin probably will be the
opposing pitchers in the game.
Marty Hurley's aggregation has
compiled quite a record for the sea-
son. The Ingots were nosed out by
the American Smelling & Refining
Company nine in the industrial
league which vas made up of the
Atlantic Terra Gotta and New Jersey
Terra Gotta mines, in addition to the
Shelters and Ingots. Hurley's toss
ers held the lead in the league dur
ing the better part of the season.
The South Amboy p. r. r. K. M.
q. A. nine, present leaders in the
Middlesex County Industrial League,
carried off honors in a three game
series with the Ingots. This was
the only series lost by the Copper
" orkers outside of the industrial
league clash with the outer State
street factory workers.

Washington Times Guest at
World Series Wants to See
Ruth Park Pill.
ByJ. F. McINTEER.

NEW YORK, Oct. lit was a
great game from a spectators point
OF view. I'm an American League
rooter, and will pull again for the
Yankees today as / did yesterday.
But the Giants were superior in
the field yesterday, and played like
real world champions, a title
which truly belongs to them if they
always battle as hard as they did
in the opener.
The Yankees threw away practi-
cally every chance they had to sew
up the game, and were eclipsed in
spectacular playing by the unusual
fielding of Frisch and Kelly. This
pair, in my opinion, saved the game
for the Giants, although everybody
knows that the crafty McGraw was
behind the scenes.
When Pipp got caught off of
second in the eighth inning, it
nearly broke my heart. It seemed
10 me then like the Yankees were
doomed.
It was fine piece of strategy
when Huggins and McGraw relieved
Hoyt and Watson, respectively. You
could see from the minute Bush
and Ryan stepped in that It was
going to be a battle to the bitter
end:
You couldn't very well ask for
more action in a game than in yes.

thrills I'm getting in New York, ]

YANKEES
Dezendorf Predicts Series
Will Be a Holly Con-
tested One.
By j. z. DEFENDERS,

NEW YORK, Oct. 11.-If 1 live
to be million years old I never
expect to see such an exciting
baseball game as the opener be-
tween the Yankees and Giants at
the stadium yesterday.
The sensational stop of Ruth's
wallop by Kelly was so sudden, it
was cruel, especially to guy like
me who is here to see the Yanks
win. That, together with Frank
F'risch's excellent defensive work,
were the big features which will
stick in my mind for many q day.
OF course, Dugan, Ruth and Bush
were playing the games of their
lives, but the breaks seemed to be
against them.
Every time Ruth came to the bat
one could see he was putting every
ounce of energy and determination
into his swings and was just simply
spelling to knock the ball for a
homer.
The Giants, and Yanks seem to be
as well-matched as two teams could
be and / can't wait to see how
they wind up today; for am
afraid IL the Yanks don't deliver
today, that their goose is cooked
am confidently expecting a hot
fight.
The luck was with the Giants
Yesterday, and they deserved every
thing they got. Today may be 9
different tale.

CAPACITY CROWD TO
SEE ARMY-HOOSIER GAME

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE West
Point-Notre Dame football game
scheduled for Ebbetts Field Brook
lyn, on Saturday, will get away to
a late start in all likelihood, 1t was
announced today. The original
starting hour was 2 O'Clock, but
present plans call for the contest to
begin at $3.50 p. M, owing to Che
fact that the Cadet Corps will not
be able to leave West Point until
noon on the day Of the game. Spe-
cial trains will carry the cadets to
the scene Of the game.
Interest in the game is so great
here that the seating capacity or
the field has been sold, and an extra
stand, accommodating $500 persons,
is being erected.

Now we only need three more to
win that third worlds banner for
our pilot.
That means that we need to
play only 500 per cent baseball by
winning three out of the next six,
whereas the Yankees must play .75O
baseball for victory because they
would be compelled to win four out
Of the remaining six.
Where we are especially strong
right now, in my opinion, is in the
fact that we have Nehf and Bent
ley fit and ready to toss against
the Yankees, whereas we beat two
of the Yankees real pitching "aces"
in the first game.

good old Casey racing around the
sacks, saw him dash for home, saw
the throw to catch him-and finally
saw the veteran score in cloud
of dust.
That hit beat the Yankees-but
I'll say that they gave us about
the hardest fight we've ever had
and they went down to defeat
gamely.
The Yanks looked like winners
to the crowd, anyway, when they
jumped into that three-run lead in
the first two innings. That's q
big handicap-but it didn't worry
us. We simply felt that we had
to fight just that much harder to
win out.
And we didn't delay getting busy.
We went after Hoyt as soon as the
third began and before we got
through we not only had tied things
up, but had gone to the front. Their

We gave our best in the effort to 4
win the first game-but it wasn't
quite good enough. A little bad luck
here and there, some amazingly bril-
liant defensive work by the Giants
and the old ball game went the other
way.
If Wally Pipp's leg had not been
ailing, we might have kept right on |
playing until darkness ended the
struggle. For If Pipp's pedal had
been 0. K. we certainly would have
scored in the eighth and the tallies
at the end of the ninth would have
been 5-5, instead Of ga, in favor Of
the other fellows.
IT looked great for us in the eighth
| when Wally led off with a single and
reached second on wild pitch, with
none out. And then WalIy took
that lead off second, the Giant
catcher made a quick throw to Ban
croft and Wally was caught. If his
leg had been a bit more sprightly
Wally would have slid back in safety
And then he would have scored few
seconds later on Wards long single.
The Giants are q fine crowd Of
athIetes-nOne can dispute that
fact. They're fighters from end
to end in any battle in which
they play. But they're also q bit
lucky. And it is that possession
Of the element of luck which has
made it possible for them to win
from us.
L have pointed to the bad break
we got in the eighth because of
Pipp's leg. We got another in the
third. Groh's hit, which went for
a triple and which scored two runs

could score a bit later on the sin

Ruth made play for the BAH of
