No matter how much you use your private car there are frequent occasions when YELLOW CAB is more convenient.
 Your automobile standing ungualded at the curb IS an open invitation to thieves and vandalS. Stolen tires motometerS and similar expensive accessories are current exchange in the undel- world.
 When you go to the theater dismiss worry from your mind by using YELLOW CAB. One of our drivers will deliver you and your guests safely and cheaply You can then enjoy the per- tormance.
 Did you ever see an unskled driver trying to park 120nch car in Q 1l0-inch space? Some- bodv's fender crumpled, Somebody's headlights shattered
 Keep your expensive car in the garage when you are downtown in the evening Use the eco- nomical, convenient YELLOW CAB. In the long run you will be money ahead
 And when you are homeward bound it is a fine thing to know that a sklfu, professional pilot will safely and economically carry you to NoUr doorstep

NEW YORK, Oct. 7.-One of Mil
Ter Higgins most daring CANDLES in
. a lifetime devoted to baseball was
a winner and thus the New York
Yankees came back to their home
ground today two up on the Pitts
burg Pirates in the 1927 World Ser
les.
For years Higgins has guided
George Pipgras toward pitching star
dom and the 28-year-old Westerner
finally came through Thursday, his
first post-Season game, holding the
Pirates to seven hits and two runs
while his mates we're making six
runs and eleven hits.
On String Since 1923
Ever since the early winter of
1928 the Yankees have had a string
on Pipgras, but most of the time he
has been in the minors, warming
the bench here, pitching in batting
practice or making a fourth at
bridge.
Occasionally he would figure in a
. game, but his control was none too
good and he was prone to blow up
at crucial moments.
But Higgins had faith and this
year Pipgras began to justify it. He
turned in ten victories against three
defeats, but failed to pitch many
complete games,
There were few who thought Hug
gins would let him work in the
world series. But a substitute out
fielder drove a ball in the batting
workout to Herb Pennock's knee
last Tuesday and it was Georges
chance. He made the best of it.
Started in 1921
George had plenty of lean years.
He started with Madison in the Da-
kota League in 1921 and was drafted
that fall by the Boston Red SoX.
They farned him to Charleston in
the South Atlantic circuit for the
season of 1922, recalled him and
then traded him to the New York
Yankees.
In developing Pipgras, Higgins
sent him in 1925 to the Nashville
club OF the Southern League and the
following year to st. Paul of the

McTigue Defends Light
Heavy Title in New York
Tonight.

NEW YORK, Oct. Mike Nc
Tigue, recognized in New York State
as the light heavyweight champion
of the world, will defend his title
against Tommy Loughran, Philadel-
phia, in a fifteen-round bout at
Madison Square Garden tonight.
This clash will be the fourth be-
tween McTigue and Loughran. The
philadelphia fighter claims three
victories, although Jimmy Johnston,
McTigue's manager, asserts two OF
them we're shady.
McTigue was made the favorite
in the early betting at Z to 5.
Loughran was expected to out
weigh McTigue about two and a
half pounds when they weighed in
at 2 o'clock this afternoon. Lough-
ran planned to weigh around 17412
and McTigue 172.
Although both men are crafty de-
fensive fighters, they have declared
in pre-bout statements that they
will go after knockout tonight.

themselves in this series and stop
the Yankees.
The American League champions
look like a good ball club, but If you
will analyze those first two games,
you will see how easy it would be
for the Yankees to be beaten.
Babe Ruth went without a hit
Thursday. The Waner brothers of
Pittsburgh seem to me to be much
more likely to break out with some
irresistible winning baseball. Loose
playing thus far has been costly TO
the Pirates.

and weighs 1877 pounds, came back
and made good,
The excellence of his pitching was
somewhat overshadowed by the
Yankee attack, but examination
showed that he allowed no two of
the seven hits in the same inning,
that he gave only one base on balls
and that he had the Pirates batting
up no less than fifteen flies and
fouls that were caught by the, Hug
men. There were few hard-driven
infield hits made off Pipgras.
