Ruel fOxed Combs to his death in
the sixth when he was on third
through his swinging bunt and Peck's
muff of Paschal's roller. Muddy
bluffed a heave to second as PaSchal
broke and then trapped Combs by
tossing to Bluege.
O'NeiIl was given the gate by
Umpire Ormsby for protesting his
ruling that Rice's shirt had been
grazed by one of Pennocks deliveries
in the sixth. Steve appeared to have
the right dope, at that, but his Ian
guage was too f1orid.
Rice put his reconditioned throwing
arm on display in the eighth when he
grabbed Meusel's single on the run
and tagged Combs attempting to
streak from first to third.
Pipp's drowsiness enabled the Griffs
to engineer a double play and thereby
snuff a Yank rally in the ninth.
Wally was on second, due to infield
bingIes by himself and Ernie Johnson,
when Scott popped to Peck. Pipp
idled far off the sack and was easily
doubled up when Rajah tossed to
Harris.

jugglers will serve the double purpose
of enabling Bucky Harris and several
of his ailing mates to shake off dis
abilities of divers sorts and afford the
fans an opportunity to recover from
the nerve-wraCking experience they
had yesterday when the champions
staged a thrilling last minute rally to
get a 2-to-1 verdict over the Hugmen
AS in the final fracas of the
memorable world series, Walter John
son was the hero yesterday, but for a
different reason, it being his bludgeon
on this occasion. rather than his pitch

into focus.
Setting Was Dramatic.
Attending circumstances made the
setting dramatic. Against the clever
curving of Southpaw Herb Pennock
the Nationals had been able TO make
no headway in their effort to match
the run registered early in the fray
off JeZebel Zachary until the eighth
inning.
Then Shirley, batting for Zach, ex-
ploded single to right. Liebold was
put in to run for the slower footed
Mule, and, after McNeeley popped foul.
Hargrave evolved a safety to left in
clubbing for Adams, who had succeed
ed McNally as defender of the middle
cushion. Harris injected himself into
the proceedings at this juncture to
hoof for Hargrave, and with the heavy
artillery on tap the bugs were aroused
to a high pitch of expectancy only to
have their spirits sink when Rice and
Goslin both sent easy rollers down the
first base line.
1t seemed too much to hope another
such golden opportunity would be af-
forded in the nearly spent paStime,
but after Gregg had done a good job
in his relief role in the ninth, Judge
provided cheer for those present with
a lusty double to left center. This
was dissipated when Pennock grabbed

a different aspect on things. Dugan
then heaved wide in an effort to
achieve a force-out with RueIS roller,
and the bases were loaded.
Hurry Call Made For Walter.
The only thing then needed for
victory was one safe punch, but who
was to deliver it. All available or
thodox batsmen had been utilized
There was only Johnson left and he
had departed for the clubhouse to
wash up. An urgent summons sent
to the locker room found Walter half
undressed, but he stepped on the gas

Baseball phcnoms thrive in the winter and fade in the spring. The southern training season just brought to a close has uncovered no Ty Cobbs, Rogers Hornsbys, Walter Johnsons nor Frank Frischs.
 It's one thing to be touted as sure enough big league star and an other to make good the cold weather predictions.
 Both major leagues have q num- Der of stars in the making, Before the close of the season several new names will be enrolled in balIdom's elect.
 Three players, Earl Combs of the New York Yankees, Eddie Moore of Pittsburgh and Hughey Critz of the Cincinnati Reds, appear like really great ball players. However, none of the trio has yet rcacAol the peak.
 Great Prospects Also
 Three others, "Lcfly" Groves of the Athletics, and Bill Terry and Freddy Lindstrom Of the Giants, are Agreat prospects,
 Hughey Critz youthful second sackor of tho Reds, make a highly favorable impression. lt is appar- ent that Critz is a coming star, be- cause he loves the game. He is first on the field, the last one off.
 Critz has great chance to win q place among tho games great second basemen. Small, but of sturdy physique, he has every physical as , set of q great inteldcr. On a , double play he piVots fast and gets 5 the ball away quickly from any , position. His driving power at the bat is surprising for a small fellow s Although Critz has had only one 7 year of big league experience as a
 regular, his status Is already estab- P lished. He is q coming star, if not k already entitled to be listed as one q Equally interesting will be tht d work Of Eddie Moore Of Pittsburgh V this year. Moore was the sensation n of the National last season. II,
