 The composite box score shows that during the series Koenig hit safely nine times in s trips 10 the plate - an average Of 500. He handled ,4 chances afeld without an error-an average of 1000. He made three more hits than any other play CT on either club and only Babe Ruth had more total bases.

 Thus the San Francisco boy who has only just completed his second year in the majors has reason to be proud. Not that you will hear Mark boosting because you won't. After the fourth game Saturday he was congratulating every one else and running off before he could accept praise in return.
 Mark's success. showing that nothing succeeds for him like fail- ure, should go far toward making him the great shortstop that Miller Hugglns believes he will be. But Higgins should invert another old motto and learn that Whom the Gods would give fame. they first make sore as a boil"

NEW FOOTBALL STAR
Ray Wclch of Purdue Gives Re- markable Performance In His First Varsity Game.

Lafayette, Ind. Oct. 10 P}-A new football star has burst into first magnitude in the western con- ference heavens, specifically ln the the constellation Purdue.
 Ray Welch is the name. young unknown who played his first var sity" game when his team faced Harvard at Cambridge, Mass, Sat urday and won, 19-o. His perform ance was looked upon as remarkable particularly because he took the place of Capt. Cotton Wilcox, one of the middle vests best backs.
 The substitute halfback ran wild through the Crimson tacklers, smashed gaping holes in Harvard s forward wall, tossed several forward passes, including one for forty yards that led to a touchdown, and drove across the customers goal for two of the three touchdowns made by Purdue.
 AS a sideline he did most of the Hoosier teams booting, and was credited with out-punting Harvard's kicker consistently throughout the game.
 Welch. whose home Is at White boro. Tex, entered Purdue last year and played on the freshman team. Until Wilcox was hurt in the first game of this season. Welch had not been considered regular backheld timber.

KOENIG THE GOAT
 BECOMES 4 HERO
Mark Vas Terrible Against Car
 dinalS But He Came Back

New York, Oct. 10 UPl-Mark Koenig, the 23 year old shortstop ot the New York Yankees, once more has observed the old copy book maxim, If at first you don't sue ceed, get mad and show 'em."
 Now that the world series of 1927 has been written into the baseball record books and the Yankees have shown themselves a real group of champions by trimming the Pitts burgh Pirates in four straight games, the case and name of Mark Koenig arise for conscientious ap- plause.
 For he was one of the outstanding heroes of the series-a star both at bat and in the field-and his feats were all the more remarkable be- cause he was a flop in 1926.
 Mark Koenig is constituted pc culiarly. He hides his grievances until they pop out all over him and then he runs wild and woolly.
 In his first year with the Tanks, the fans remember, he stepped up and swung at Babe Ruth because he fancies the teams star slugger was raging him too badly. That uprising made his solid with the Babe and with the rest of the team.
 Mark proved that he could not and would not be prodded too far. As matter of fact his stand against Ruth probably made permanent his position as a Yankee regular
 Then came the series between the Tanks and St. Louis Cardinals last year. Mark was dreadful. He was worse than that.
 In the seven games he was at bat g times and he made four hits--an average of .125. He had 40 chances in the field and muffed four of them average of 300.
 It was pointed out and rightfully that the difference between the play of koenig for the Tanks and Tommy Thevenow for the Cardinals gave the St. Louis team the edge in that close series.
 And thus, when 1t became Certain in that the Yankees and Pirates would meet this year there was scarcely d a sports writer that did not compare Koenig unfavorably to Glenn Wright the Pittsburgh shortstop.
 Mark must have read those barbs and they must have punctured his skin. For as early as last Tuesday when the Tanks worked out at Forbes field he was the life of the party. He was making, as the ten his experts say, impossible gets. He
