Pioneers.

We can now begin 10 see where the
pioneers Of radio started on the wrong
path in n great many things. Take
the matter of variable condensers, for
example. The early manufacturers
labeled their product by the number
of plates they contained. and not by
the maximum capacity at which they
were rated.
To classify condensers by the num-
Der off plates is just like marking
barrels by the number of slaves in
will hold. An eleven-plate condenser
may have any capacity from zero TO
infinity, depending on the size Of the
plates. the thickness of the dielectric
and other factors,

MANY RECORDS
TUMBLE IN
!. +. SERIES
Homers, Singles, Errors
Come in Unprece-
denied Numbers.

PITTSBURGH, Oct. 16.-CR-
Records were broken thick and fast
in the Pirates world series battles
with Washington.
The most notable was in home
run hitting, where individual as well
as team marks went into the discard
before the smuggling led by "Goose"
Goslin and Joe Harris of the Sena-
tors, each of whom slammed out three
circuit blows to tic the individual
record for single series.
Peck's startling total of eight err
rors was the most tragic new rec.
ord, his string of misplays removing
the names Of Hans Wagner and joe
Sewell from the record books in this
respect. The latter pair each had reg
istered six errors in series.
Other new marks follow:
Twelve onebase hits were made by
Sam Rice, breaking the mark of nine
set by II. Sebring OF Pittsburgh III
1908, and equalled later by four 9th
ers.
Max Carey was hit three times by
the pitcher, setting a new record. also
tying n record for four hits in sim
gle game, set by Tommy Leach IN
1908 and equalled later by a dozen
others.
Stanley Harris. accepting thirteen
chances in the field in the fourth
game. equalled q record made by
Claude Ritchcy of Pittsburgh III
1903.

Asked to Apologize
to Moriarity.

PITTSBURGH, Oct. 16.-R)--
Three Washington players, Manager
Stanley Harris, Catcher Harold Rucl
and Shortstop Roger Peckinpaugh
were called before Commissioner
Lands before the final game of the
worlds series started in regard to
the statements criticising Umpire
Moriarity in a story that appeared
under Peckinpaush's name. Moriarity
was present.
After a lengthy discussion. the
commissioner demanded an apology.
In case this was not Forthcoming he
is said to have promised some &C.
ton on the player-writer matter.
The commissioner, when interview
cd at the baseball park, declined to-
discuss the matter, saying that it
would not be in the interests OF his
service 10 the game.
Il do not like to take such IN
attitude" he said. but it seems
necessary in this case
The Objectionable words in an
article on Tuesdays game over which
Peckinpaugh's name appeared were as
follows:
"Ordinarily, do not blame any of
the umpires. But will say that it
will be looked upon as cheap alibi.
However, Umpire Moriarity yesterday
missed one at n critical time which
beat us, and, for this reason, / can
not help mentioning it."

DESERTED BY FORTUNE.

DESERTED BY FORTUNE.
Fortune set her face sternly against
Peckinpaugh. The baseball writers
dripping in the press section were
thinking of the drama of the situa-
ton when Peckinpaugh broke up the
tie in the eighth, because Peckin-
paugh had contributed to Washing
toms distress by muffing an easy fly
in the seventh, permitting the Pirates
to tie the tally.
His homer CLOSED over a lot Of
things in the eighth. 1t looked as il
he was TO finally emerge from the
series in one of the important roles.
The entire Washington bench turned
out in the rain to give old Roger a
cheer as he trotted in from his trip
around the bases after that blow.
But baseball fortune is mighty
tickle. A few moments later Peck
inpaugh had slipped back into n more
dismal pose. 1t seems strange that
one of the greatest infielders that ever
lived should wind up with more err
rors in a series Of games than any
other player has ever made.
ALDRIDGE HELPLESS. -.
The wet ball seemed to trouble the
mighty johnson more than it did Ray
Kremer, Johnny Morrison or Oldham,
but not as much as it troubled Vie
Aldridge, the Hoosier state righthand
er, who was dismissed from the game
in the first inning. Aldridge, like
johnson, had won two games of the
series. He could not control the ball,
which was then not as wet and slip
perry as it later became. Here again
you have an illustration of the tickle
ness Of baseball fortune, for Aldridge
seemed almost certain TO make good
showing on strength of his past PEI.
