Frank Richmond has booked 26
rounds of battling for the arena
Friday night which promises to pro-
vide fans with plenty of excitement,
The card features Jimmy Murphy,
Hollywood star, and Ad Ruiz, Los
Angeles battler.
Ruiz is credited with being a
whirlwind in the ring. According
to critics he can throw more gloves
in three minutes than any other
Lattlcr up and down the coast and
carries a punch in each. He has
numbered such boys as Earl Forse
and Billy Hoon among his victims.
In Murphy, Ruiz will meet boy
worthy of his metal for Jimmy has
sent the last seven boys to face
him into the land of nod. Murphy
is southpaw when it comes to hit
ting and his ability to slip the left
mitt through for x. O. scores has
made him a favoritc in Hollywood
circles.
Tony Portfolio of Ocean Park will
clash with Jimmie Huff of San
Diego in the semifinal. Huff has
fought here many times and is
noted for giving fans plenty of ac-
ton Portfolio comes from the same
stable that Goldfe Hess calls home
and is speedy boy.

Diego youth who has appeared here
several times this season, will meet
Burl Whitehead of Culver City in

Cincinnati today was the Nation
al League pennant battle ground,
with the Reds playing the second
place st. Louis Cardinals. The Pr.
.tcs, leading the league by two
games, and the third place Giants,
were idle.
Pittsburgh has three games left
to play against Cincinnati, begin
ming Friday. st. Louis also. has
three games to play. today's game
with the Reds and two against the
Chicago Cubs.
If the Pirates lose two games to
Cincinnati and the Cards win their
remaining three games, the two
clubs will tie for league honors.
Pittsburgh must lose its three re-
manning games and St Louis win
three if last years champions are
to repeat.
The Giants are still n mathcma-
teal possibility to tie for the pen.
nant provided the Cards and Pr
atcS lose all thrcc of their remain
ing games and"thc Giants win their
three.
New York maintained the chance
to tie for the pcnnant by beating
'hc Phils, ) TO T.. They can tie only
by winning three games while the
Cards and Pirates lose three.
The Phils were defeated in the
tenth inning yesterday after the
Giants had tied tho score with two
runs in the eighth. Both teams
scored once in the ninth. Cy Viii
liams hit his 30th homer.
The Senators took two close
games from the Red SoX, to |,
and 6 to 1. Hadlcv held Boston to
six hits in the first game, account
ing for the victory.
Relief pitching of Braxton after
Marbcrry had allowed Boston four
runs in the fourth inning of the

margin in that ocntrst.

THIRTEEN men
TO MAKE DEBUT
in BIG SERIES
Yanks and Pirates Have
Bakers Dozen Who Are
New to Classic.
BY PAUL w. WHITE
United Press Staff CORRESPONDENT

(Unlted ProSS 6taII CtygAsOOnd6nt)
NEW YORK, Sept. 29.---among
the A ball players ON the rosters
of the New York Yanks and the
Pittsburgh Pirates who are eligible
for the world series are l3 who nev-
or. have figured in the post-season
championship.
On at least seven of the new COM
ers, provided the Pirates are des-
tined to meet the Yanks in the Sc
ries, some Of the strain is due to
fall; and eventual triumph may
hang largely on their ability to
withstand tension.
Five Yankees have yet to play be-
fore series crowds. They are Willie
Moore and George pipgras, pitchers;
Jack Grabowski, catcher; Julian
Vera, third basenlan, and Cedric
burst, outfielder.
The Pirates who would find par
t;cipation in the October biz money
a novelty are Paul and LLOYD Waner,
outfielders; Carmen Hill, John Mil
JUS and Joe Dawson, pitehers;- Joe
Cronin and Hal Rhyme, infieldcrs,
and Fred RrickelI, outfielder.
Moore and Pipgras are likely 10
enter the box for the Yanks. The
former has been the most valuable
relief pitcher in either league and
if three opponents get on base IN
the late innings 1t is a good bot
, that he and his sinker ball will see
action.
Pipgras has progressed steadily
until he is ready to take his regu-
lar turn on the mound. Grahowski,
who came to the Hugmen from Chi
csko, probably will be behind the
Eat in several games. So,
The Pirates offer the Wancr broth
,ts az regulars whose work through
cut the season kept them near the
top.
Carmen Hin is an almost certain
hurler If the Pirates come through.
Miljus has turned in fine games his
last times out.
= Dangerous as it is to pick the he
rocs of world series engagements, it
might be hazarded that the Wancrs
and Willie Moore will find their
way into the record books as stars
ofathe 1927 classic.
But season S records are not often
a criterion Of players worth in
the short span of seven or less
games. The goat of one series,
wleh as was Mark Koenig of the
Yankees last year, may become the
here of the next.
