Arthur Nehrs victory over the
Yankees yesterday was his third out
or six starts in the series of 1921,
1922 and this year. In his first two
attempts in 1921 he was defeated by
Hoyt, but he defeated Hoyt in their
third duel of that series, the eighth
and deciding game. In 1922 he
started the first game and was re-
lieved by Rosy Ryan, who received
credit for a victory when the Giants
rallied and won in the eighth inning.
He won the deciding game of the
series against Joe Bush.
"What New York needs. said Col.
Jake Rupert. owner of the Yankees,
when he saw the crowd pouring out
of the Yankee Stadium, 'is a larger
ball park"
Casey stengel fs q light-hearted
heavy hero. After making the win
ming home run in the first game he
almost laughed himself to death in
the Giant dugout. In the practice
before Thursdays game, in which he
didn't participate until the ninth
inning, he wore a smile that was a
perfect disguise for his weather
beaten face.
He didn't get into the batting
order Thursday because the Amer
leans used a left-handed pitcher. but
when he caught Ruth's long fly for
the third out in the ninth he was so
happy that he wrung his hands and
threw tenn about like a little boy
who had been awarded the Ounce cap
for bad conduct in school.
When he made his winning home
run yesterday he didn't have to run
to beat the ball home because It went
and, passing second. he looked up at
the press stand and thumbed his
pudgy nose. He skipped most of the
way out to his fielding position.
Umpire Bob Hart of the National
! League staff. who officiated at first
base, made one of the most unusual
decisions an umpire ever is called
upon to make. He decided not by
what he saw but by what he heard.
1t was in the Yankee half Of the
eighth inning with one down. Witt
got his only hit of the game, a hot
single through the box. Hart took a
position on the base line between first
On the next play Dugan grounded to
Groh, who made a sensational stop
and threw out Witt at second. Frisch,
who took the throw, whipped the bali
to first for fast double play.
To avoid being struck, Hart dropped
fiat on his face like dougfboy when
a shell was bursting. He had an ex-
cellent line on old Mother Earth, but
not on the play. He heard Dugan's
hoof strike the first bag before the
called the runner safe. And there was
no dispute.
Most of the fans didn't understand
why Manager Miller Higgins and his
team kicked so strenuously when
Umpire r. S. Nallin called out Ward
on third strike in the last half of
the ninth. Nehf pitched eleven balls
to him with almost perfect control,
and Ward had a. good eye" letting
those go that Inipped around the
corners and nicking the curves that
came within his distance. He fouled
six balls.
The last pitch Ward let go by, but
Whether it would have been ball
or strike did not matter. Nallin
saw a movement of the second base
mans bat and called him out. Ward
claimed that Snyder tipped" the bat
er denied 1t.
There was at least one unorthodox

call.
Little Stevenson, Penn's quarter
back in 1904, made himself great
leader by one act. In his first big
game, the second college game he
ever played, Penn was on Harvard s
20-yard line in the first half. Harvard
had chalked up four consecutive VIC

Penn lineman turned to "Stevie" at
this point, thinking this green kid
might break under the strain. He
thought to calm him. "Stevie" drove

Jones Helps Himself.

Jones started a dual killing on his
own hook after issuing his first walk
to Stengel in the fifth, jumping for
Kelly's hopper and firing to Scott,
who did the pivoting. Still another
twin demise snuffed the hopes of the
Yanks in their half, which Ward
opened with a ringing single to left.

What may prove to have as I'M.
nortant a bearing on the outcome or
tha serise as Stengel's seventh-inning
home run occurred In the rear end or
the session when Pipp injured that
aiIine ankle OF his. Wally drew
free ticket with one gone and was
forced on roller to Bancroft by
Ward. Pipp's leg caved on him as he
went into second, and after the IN
iured limb was bandaged ltmped on
the field with his prospects for see
ing further service very dim Schang
looped a single to left which moved
Ward up a notch and Heinie Groh
then covered himself with glory by
knocking down Scott's bid for dou-
BILE and tagging Ward as he slid into
the sack. 1t was a truly brilliant bit
Of work. The ball was travelling like
a rife shot and Groh had to dive
headlong to intercept 1t.
Ruth was brought In from right
field OF play first base, and Hinky
Haines took his place in right
when the Giants came to bat
in the eighth. Nehf, a weak hitter,
promptly sliced a single to left, and
it seemed that Jones had been upset
by the frowns Of fate. but he rapidly
dissipated any such notion by striking
out Bancroft and Groh in succession
and causing Frisch to bounce to the
box.
Jones' display Of iron nerve in such
a contingency made Huggins' action
in lifting him for pinch hitter when
the Yanks came up for their rapS
