 Griffith Stadium, Washington, Oct. 1O.--The championship hopes of the New York Giants and Washington Senators were placed in two right handlers, Virgil Barnes and "Curley" ogden today in the seventh and de- ciding game of the worlds series.
 President Coolidge, attending his third game, was in the crowd of at least 35,000 that packed the stands and assured a million dollar series, with the receipts probably eclipsing the record of 1923.
 President At Game
 The president was the target for a camera barrage prior to the game. He was photographed with the rival managers, "Bucky" Harris and John McGraw, while the members of the two clubs were lined up in front of the presidential box.
 With the chief executive, was Mrs. Coolidge, Mrs. Frank W. Stearns, c.  Bascom Slemp, the presidents sec retary and Louis J. Taber of Co., lumbus, master of the national grange, who was luncheon guest at the White House.
 Ogden Replaced
 Manager Harris sprang sensa- ton when he yanked ogden after he had pitched to only two batters, striking out Lindstrom and walking Erisch in the first inning. George Mogridge, veteran southpaw was called to the box to face Young.
 Stanley Harris, Washington's youthful manager, made the only run in the first four innings. He hit & homer into the left field

 ''Zeke" Barnes, young right hand CT had the Senators swinging wildly at his fast curves while George Mogridge, veteran southpaw who relieved "Curley" ogden after only two men had faced the latter in the first inning, also was baffling the Giants, but with slow curves.
 Ogden's sudden departure, after he had struck out Lindstrom and walked Frisch was a dramatic mo- ment in the first inning. Harris ap- parently was not going to take any chances with his boxmen and. his move looked like good strategy as Mogridge steadily got better.
 The Senators failed to get man on base in the first three innings, four striking out. but the Giants had one on in each of the first and third and two in the second. Tay- lor's error on Jackson with two out, put him on first and Gowdy fol- lowed with Q single but Barnes whIftsd to end .he rally.

Lieut.. Martin, Pilot, And Lieut.. Puryear, Observer, Both Are Seriously Injured In Sudden Fall.
Explosion Occurs While Big Dirigible Is in Air Over Langley Field Non-InfammabIe Gas Prevented Total De- structi0n.

Newport News, Va. Oct. to.--Ths army blimp T. C. 2, the largest non- rigid lighter-than-air craft yet built in the United States, was badly dam- aged and several of her crew in- jured today when bomb she was carrying exploded while she was in the air over Langley field.
 Lieutenant Bruce N. Martin, pilot of the ship, which belonged at the Aberdeen, Md, proving ground. and Lieutenant Alfred I. Puryear, observer, were seriously injured, while three sergeants composing the enlisted personnel of the vessel were shocked by the explosion. but not seriously hurt.
 Gas Bag Broken.
 The explosion of the bomb broke the gas bag of the ship which came to the ground as the non-inf1amable helium with which the bag was filled escaped. The crew had no time to take to their parachutes.
 The full extent of the damage to the ship has not been determined beyond the fact that the gas bag was severely torn by the explosion and fall which followed. The fact that the ship was inflated withhnn- explosive helium gas probably pre- vented her complete destruction and the loss of the lives of all the mem- bers of her crew.
 Has Length of f96 Feet.
 The T. C.-2 has length of 19s ft. and an overall height of 50 feet. It was constructed or'training pur- poses, her car being of an improved pattern and 40 feet in length with two 150 horsepower motors set on a platform aft. She had a speed of sixty miles an hour and an endur- ance capacity If ten hours in air at that rate. Her total lifting ca- paeity was close to 12.000 pounds and her useful load 4,O0O pounds.
 The ship had been sent from her station at Aberdeen, Md, to partici- pate in air service maneuvers at Langley Field. and had taken on her cargo of four bombs this morning.
 Was 15O Feet in Air.
 At the time of the explosion the T. C.-2 was about 15O feet in the air. For the first few seconds the craft fell slowly but spectators below soon saw a puff of smoke, heard a muTled roar of the bomb, and then the hiss of gas and the blimp hurled plummet-like to earthy It did not catch fire, but struck the ground with great force.
 As she crumpled all in a heap, 1t was impossible to tell without an extended examination just how ser- iously she might have been dam- aged. She appeared. upon cursory inspection. to be little more than a mass of tangled wreckage. It was impossible to determine just how seriously or in what manner her crew may have been injured. All were stunned by the explosion and i. appeared that one or two might have been struck also by flying frag- merts of the exploded bombs.
 All five of the men were rushed to the base hospital at Fort Mun- roe by airplane and ambulance for examination.

WOULD OPEN FISHING

Titcomb Opposes Monopoly By Wealthy Intcrests-Wants State

Hartford, Oct. 10,-lnitiating a movement for state control of trout fishing streams in Connecticut the state fish and game board has asked the state board of finance to recom- mend to the legislature an appro- priation of s50,0O0 for securing leases throughout the state.
 The desired appropriation of s5o,- 900 however, will be only a starter" toward the lease purchas- ing, which would require consider ably more than this to secure rights over all the streams in the state. The policy of J. W. Titcomb, superinten- dent of tho N-~' ..-..tlv up peri 'dU3J 'G.'51'-i

With fishing in these streams in state control angling privileges would be extended to all.
 Mir. Titcomb expressed the further opinion that this leasing of streams by the state would be welcomed by farmers, as all ingress and egress to the property threaded by the brooks would be under state regulation which would be more stringent means to prevent the trespass nuis- ance from which farmers through out the state are suffering.
