Before the series started / said
that the Giants like speed, and for
that reason l did not think that
johnson would show the same effec-
tiveness against New York that he
had shown in tn. American League.
on the other hand a pitcher of
Johnson's ability is figured to win at
least one of two world series starts.
No one dreamed that in Johnson's s
TWO world series starts he would be
slammed for - hits, including three
home runs.
The Giants now need only one more
game to win another world title. and
unless Zachary can come back. the
trick will be done today. Nehf or
fourth struggle. Only Washington 5
gameness. now can turn the tide to
the American Leaguers.
Bentley Bore Down.
Bentley. a younger man than john
son. though not exactly Il 'youngSter,
came back after two days rest. and
showed up stronger and steadier than
his more distinguished right handed
opponent. Bentley, too, was hit hard
in spots, but he was able to bear
down when in trouble. Bentley's
home run in the fifth inning, the sec
ond hit by a pitcher in this series,
convinced the fans they they were
present at Walter Johnson'S water
loo. This home run was lucky, a
ball which just about dropped into
the stands. But there was nothing
lucky about the manner in which the
Giants tore into Johnson in the ninth.
A surprising thing of the series has
been the hitting of the Giants pitch
ers. The fact that Johnson was
slammed for six hits in his two games
by the Giant pitchers tells a story
in itself. When Johnson was right, a
pitcher was lucky to make a foul off
him.
In our preliminary series, We called

BILLY EVANS BUSHES
JEERER OF JOHNSON
BY HERBERT COREY,

NEW YORK, October 9.-Eightecn
years ago Billy Evans umpired the
first game of ball Walter johnson
pitched in the big league Eighteen
years ago little Lindstrom. the kid
marvel of the Giants at third base
was born.
When Lndstrom yesterday, with Is
years of youth in his shoulders, made
his fourth hit off the slackening
curves of the map who had pitched
big league ball for 1s years, one
man-one man alone of ,00O-failed d

He screamed insults toward Johnson

Before his elbow neighbor could
swing, Billy Evans was shouldering &
through the crowd.
Let him alone he cried. Let
me have him. He's mine"
Johnson was beaten. but no pitcher
ever lost battle as he did. Don't
say there is no sentiment in base ball
The big fellow tried to stretch the
third inning Any other man would
have been booed when he bumped
heavily back-heavily and ineffectu-
ally. The crowd cheered him.
in the eighth inning, when the
Giants were adding three tallies to
make the score 6 to 2, he fumbled
Wilson's bunt and filled the bases
with no man out. The crowd
cheered him, and when in the final
effort in the ninth Johnson gave way
to a pinch hitter-the crowd cheered
again 1t was Johnson's day. He
was defeated, it is true. Nevertheless
il was JohnsonS day.

There he stood. working as earn

about him. Occasionally he had to
jump sideways to keep from having

corners of the feld-the longest hit
OF this or any other series.
At one crucial moment, johnson
issued a pass. He followed that by
booting grounder on which he could
have made an easy play at third.
Then he barely was saved from a
wild pitch Only the agility of little
Muddy Ruel saved the misdemeanor.
Johnsons S rout came in the eighth
and that dropping star of destiny
disappeared forever. He loaded the
bases with no one out. Three runs

the man, had won its respect and
even the hardest-hearted fan in the
stadium and the most ardent sup
porter of the Giants must have felt a
lump in his throat as the Washington
ace wearily plodded from the pitch
er's box to the clubhouse. His gait
was slow and his shoulders dropped,
| but even then the crowd stood and
cheered him as he passed, admiration
for the pitcher somewhat lessened,
but respect for the man as great as
ever. The saddest chapter in base
ball history>had been written.
What few Giant rooters there were
in the stands when the game started
We're won to the cause, of the great
pitcher before the game was well un-
der way. AS the innings passed and
the Nationals bats failed to drive in
the runs that would give the pitcher
something, to work on, the cheers
grew greater and greater in volume
as defeat approached.

that went up from thousands of
pleading spectators. But the Nationals
failed to hit and the tired arm of the
big pitcher failed to still the thunder
ing attack from the Giants bats.
AS the. crowd filed out the victory
and the defeat were forgotten in the
downfall of the idol. Few discus
sions as to the Giants chances of
conquering the Nationals again and
winning the world championship p
were heard. The hum of conversa-
tion that arose all had to do with the
downfall of Johnson. Every one
seemed saddened. There might have
been compensation had the great
pitcher lost after a struggle, as he
did in the first game of the series. but
yesterday he was hammered and
hammered mercilessly, the hits ring
ing off the Giants bats with the sharp
crack that means ball hit squarely.

same conditions.
For the fifth time in this series the
capacity OF the stands, bieacherS and
pavilion We're taxed to the limit.
There were - fewer persons present
yesterday than there were on Tues
day. but only because the games were
closed earlier. A total of 1921, the
second largest crowd that ever paid
to see a game in the Polo Grounds
passed through the admission turn
stiles and some 5000 others saw the
contest in capacities that did not re-
quire the purchase OF tickets.
There hasn't been an empty seat
anywhere at any game SO far. and
each battle has found hundreds of
spectators overf1owing into the aisles
and standing at the back rail OF the
stands. catching glimpses of the pro-
ceedings at intervals. The tenseness
OF the series, the exciting finishes of
each game and the intercity aspect
have brought greater interest to the
world series of 1924 than to any other
in the history of the game.

banner of the invaders and turned

Never before has a base ball team
been received at home as the Giants
have been during the present series.
The psychology OF the crowd may be
explained in many ways. The New
York fan has seen the mighty Giants
conquer all National League teams
for the past four years and has seen
the team win two OF the last three
world championships. while Washing
ton is playing in the world series for
the first time in history. The Giants
are more or less under cloud as d

u. S. Contracts for 5000 Armored Cars
Designed to Repulse Mail Bandits

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, August 1e.-In an
effort to prevent railway mail
robberies, the United States Post
Office Department. it was learned
today. has contracted for the
building of 5000 specially de-
signed cars, armored so heavily
and equipped with such protec-
tive devices as to defeat attacks
by armed desperadoes. A spokes-
man of the department said that
one of the cars has already been
delivered to the railroad yards at
Melrose, N. Y. and If it meets the
tests to which 1t will be subjected
the others will be rushed to COM
pletion.
The armored car, designed un-
der Government supervision, 1t is
understood. is the result Of the
Post Office Departments reaction
to the railway holdup near Chi
cago on June IL, in which $2,075,-
900 in money and bonds was
stolen. Nine robbers at that time
attacked a special mail train at
Randoul. Ills, using gas bombs,
and took 40 pouches of mail.
The armored car has many fea-
lures reminiscent of the armored
tanks used in the World War. 1t
is equipped with Sits through
which its occupants can thrust
rifles and revolvers. In addition,
It was stated BY the departments
