white horses of thought were tumb- ling all over the flat land of the Polo Grounds, tossing his players about and, incidentally, tossing way the world series. Bob Meusel singled to center field when McGraw had dis tinctly asked Ryan for another strikeout. Cunningham in center held was just about to make a throw to third base when the under-tow of a long, rolling thought-wave laid him by the heels and caused him to throw wild, to third. Three Yankee surf-riders rolled home on the feath- CT of the wave. bringing the score to 64 in their favor. lI
 Babe Ruth and the other Yankees had long contended that thinking had nothing to do with baseball and that good ball club with a fairly active batting order and two able pitchers, can play better ball than master mind sitting in dugout. The Yankees were wont to outwit the Giants now and again during the world series.
 Did yor, get a signal from the master mind to do that?" Joe Dugan inquired pleasantly when one of the Giants pop-fouled to him back of third.
 "The master mind just signalled you to strike out" Waffle Schang would admonish a Giant hitter through the grating of his mask.
 Altogether, the Yankes were lack ing in respect for the great mental ity that was hurling through waves at them
 And so the colors dangle limp from the citadel of the Giants. Their world championship flag must come down next spring, leaving only the house flag bearing the heraldic de- vice of a decanter rampant on national league pennant and the Thespian skull.
