Cardinals Still Firm

4 S FOR the morale of the con-
IA tenders, the Cardinals are still
the same cockey, confident outfit,
playing as if certain of their ulti-
mate triumph. quick to seize every
advantage offered. They came
right out of a bitter struggle for
their own pennant into this series
and resemble the Griffmen of 1924
more than anything else. This
fighting spirit may carry them
right through. too, giving them
their necessary two victories In
New York.
The Yankees, who seemed sleepy
to a degree in the first two games
and utterly helpless against Jess
Haines on Tuesday in st. Louis,
found themselves when Babe Ruth
showed them the way on Wednes-
day. Yesterday. they played snappy
baseball all the way, the con-
fident manner, being noticeable
to shrewd watchers.
In other words. the Yankees,
even with poorer pitching. are
sure to give the Cardinals a hot
fight tomorrow. If the Cardinals
square accounts and bring on the
seventh game. they will find the
Yankees ever dangerous, no mat
ter what pitcher is selected to
start for them against Haines.

certainly no one in the park yester-
day will deny that the Cardinals

as a whole flock of badly pitched

.WALLOPER

To TAP
BY Miller Higgins
Manager. New York Yankees,
American League Champ:OnS

EN- ROUTE TO NEW YORK,
Oct. S.-Yesterday' was the first
game since this series started in
which there was any of that thing
called baseball strategy"
Ours worked and Hornsby's didn't.
And now we've got the big edge
on the series and need only one
more game to go.
Two pieces of strategy featured
our work. The first one came in
the ninth inning, when, with two
men on bases, l sent Meusel, an
acknowledged swing hitter, up to
the bat with instructions to bunt.
He did a great job and with the
Cardinal infield playing we'll back
expecting him to swing, we sue
ceeded in pushing both men along
into scoring positions.
The second incident was in put
ting Paschal in to hit for Dugan.
A lot of folks wondered about that.
Joe has been hitting we'll. Here's
the reason.
PaschaI is much faster than
Ougan, and with runners in scOr-
ling position all we had to do
to score was to prevent a double
play. With Paschal hitting l
wasn't worried about that. He's
too fast. AS it turned out, he
singled and everything was al
right anyhow.

considered better than a long shot
The Cardinals must win TWO
games, but they have two unbeat-
en-, brilliant pitchers for that task
in Grover Cleveland Alexander and
Jess Haines. Against them Miller
Higgins has Urban Shocker, who
was driven from the box last Sun
day; Dutch Ruether, who suffered
the same fate in st. Louis Tuesday;
Bob Shawkey and Sad Sam Jones'
both of whom are ranked as re-
lief hurlers for this series.
Shocker is a veteran. He Will
be opposed by another veteran
tomorrow in the brilliant Grover
Alexander. In their clash last
Sunday, Alexander had it all over
Shocker from all angles. He flat
tened the Yankees absolutely and,
with five days rest, should come
close to repeating.
At the same time, Shocker is no
mean foe when showing control
of his splitter and his curve ball.
1t may so happen that Shocker
will show to better advantage in
his second trial, forcing Alexander
to the cracking point. The Yam
KEGS can hardly afford to lose to-
morrow for then they will be left
with only second string FINGERS
to send against Jess Haines on
Sunday.

And in musing over the burden If
Casey Jones lay. one cannot help
wondering IL Casey Jones might
have been the same personality
which gave baseball the incompara-
bic masterpiece Casey at the Bat, E"

other than the equally incompatible
De Wolf Hopper.
Anyway, the scene is shifting
again today while the country col
lects it's tattered nerves, nerves

mately assumed by the Yankees.

would advise all Washingtonians
who desire one more dying shift OF
baseball before football demands its
full measure of attention, TO secure
reservations for that seventh game
which ought to be something Of an
epoch IL we are any judge.
In the meanwhile the country can
cool its heels for another "a hours

But since 1891 there has been a gradual rise slow but sure. Busi- ness is improving, and the residents of Alaska are becoming satisfied with conditions. I notice a marked i'm provement in the attitude Of your per manent citizens"
 MT. Garfield, at this point, enlight- ened his audience with a brief outline of the work under way in the Wran- gell Narrows and what this work means to the commerce of the Terri tory. He also spoke of his visit to Sitka and of the restoration of the old Russian block house. A summary of activities in the Fairbanks district, of the big work under way by the Fairbanks Exploration company, and of other mining activities in that re- zion. The policy of the big company in Fairbanks is to employ local men first which Mr. Garfield declared was a good policy" Many improvements in the civic life of Fairbanks have been made during the past few months, he said, in the way of improv- ing homes, buildings and streets.
 Upon leaving Fairbanks he stopped a day at Mckinley National park. He complimented the new tourists trans portation company's activities in the park and described the big fine tent town erected by them at Savage riv- CT, considerable distance within the confines of the park. For five miles past this camp road traverses a fine scenic country ending at a point where a beautiful panorama view is obtained of Americas mightiest peak, Mount Mckinley. Also from this vantage point glimpses of wild ami mals was obtained.
 Then a word of praise for the Alas ka railroad hotel at Curry was given. Alaska's finest hotel, were his words. The tourists are always astonished upon arriving at this hotel, he said, bestowing much praise for it's com
