BOUT ENDS IN DRAW

In the smoke-filled. overjammed ar
mory at Silver Spring, Md, last night
Henry Lamar and Marty Gallagher,
local heavyweight scrappers who have
high aspirations, fought what was
ruled to be a 1O-round draw.
Those content to brave the cond1-
tions said it was a good fight
That there was interest in the bout
was shown by the jam inside and by
the number of those outside trying
to look in or get in.

after their first batter up had watched
n third strike go by. At that time
Manager Huggins had Wilcey Moore
warming up to go to the rescue, but
1t was not until after two singles had
caromcd off Ruc bats in the eighth
with only one out that Moore broke
into the game. For Hoyt had recOt-
cred gallant after his rough NTH
round and appeared to be getting
stronger, but the troublesome eighth
proved the Pirates were rather fond
Of what he had to offer.
Moore seemed II trihe unsteady
when he came to the hill and gave up
a hit to Joe Harris that sent over the
run leaving the Bucs only a tally shy
of the Yankee total. He did not re-
main unsteady for long, however.
Wilcey breeZed through the ninth just
as he had done so often when perform
ing in relief roles during the American n
League season. and the Yankees had
the first game of the big series i'm.
1t was not much of a game as base
ball games go. The Pirates played as
anything but cha mpionShip club,
thcir third inning. when they com
mitted two errors and let the YankS
tally three times with one hit, being
reminiscent of some of the base ball
the Red Sox showed during the recent
American League campaign. Nor did
they loom especially formidable on the
bases. Twice forced to bunch three
safeties for a run. they apparently
were quite unwilling to take any
chances on the runway.
The Yankees game was nothing eX
ceptional. but they never overlooked
an opportunity thrown their way by
the opposition. And they managed tc
meet the ball in the pinches, even
though outhit nine safeties to six, by
the Pirates. If what was revealed in
the first game may be accepted as
fair sample of what to expect of the
rivals in the annual classic the Yam
KEGS ought not to run into much
trouble in this world series.
True to form. the big busters" oi
both clubs did their stuff. Babe Ruth
champion home-run hitter, and Pau
Waner. leading clouter of the Ma

three hits. There were no homers

of one-base variety. One of Wanef'
slams was good for two bases. but one

the card Tex Rickard is dishing up to
the patrons of Madison Square Gar

When two IriShmen get together
there is bound to be an eye-satisfying

often found in the prize ring, and with
title at stake both lads can be de-
pended upon to do their best.
Loughran and McTigue are not
strangers. The pair met once in no.
decision contest with hOnors even.
Now that few years have passed and
Loughran has been improving all
along. the advantage rests with the
Philadelphia entry. McTigue made a
wonderful fight against Jack Sharkey.
but the same could not be said about
his shindies with Tiger Flowers and
Pat Mccarthy.
Mike is a smart old boy and seems
to have found a wallop in his mature

summon in the way of SKILL punch and
dexterity if he expects to triumph
over the younger Loughran.

Yanks Have Resourcefulness.
The unlookedfor weakness displayed
by Kremer, the best of all their pitch
ers. and the cracking of the Pirate
defense in what proved to be the de-
cisive third inning were not the only
angles in which the Bucs failed to-
live up to their pre-series reputation.
Their highly touted speed availed
them nothing and they failed com
pletely to display the thickness and
ingenuity they were credited with pos
sessing. The only resourcefulness and
enterprise that materialiZed during the
combat was flashed by the Ianks, and
it was a bit of willingness to take
chance in the third inning that uncov-
cred a hole in the Pirate bulwarks.
Judging by the opening clash of the
set, the Yanks should be able to drill
