CUTLER WILL NOT
 START IN SERIES
Manager Bush to Stand Pat on
 Lineup That Finished Season

1 Pittsburgh, Pa, Oct, 3 (P'-tIazen : (Kild) Cuyler, star outtieldcr and 1 storm center of the Pirates, Is not ] expected to start in the worlds SC
 ries or take any part in the games,
 unless q sudden emergency arises, l in spite of the protests Of many ] Pittsburgh fans and the feeling among experts that the clubs outer works would be strengthened by killi's presence.
 While declining to discuss Guy ler's case during the past few days,
 Bush indicated he stood pat on the lineup that clinched the pennant, with Clyde (Pooch) Barnhart hold ing down left field.
 The Cuyler episode is one of the strangest in baseball. involving diff ferences with Bush, disciplinary ac- ton that included Q $50 fine for failing 10 slide to second one day and later interment on the bench for a player who was a worlds se- ries hero in 1925 and rated among the games greatest outttelders. It has split the fans into two camps, one pro-Cuyler and the other pro- Bush.
 The hub of the dispute is under stood to hinge about the outtield- CTS superstition against batting second, where Bush placed him. kiki. who had batted third before, acquired mental hazard" when he moved up notch. He struck slump, argued with Bush and then warmed the bench, so the story goes, but there are many conflict ing versions.
