BY BRIAN BELL
Associated Press Sports Writer

ST. LOUIS, Oct. S.-CP-Riding
high on the crest of a winning wave
brought over from the last world Sc
ries, the New York Yankees came to
their fourth game of the 1928 series
today, needing but one victory TO
make them baseball immortals.
II the New Workers can stop the
st. Louis Cardinals once more as
they have halted them three times
since last Thursday. they will carve
a new record in the archives of the
game. The Yankees won from the
Pittsburgh Pirates in four straight
games last year but this feat had
been performed before-by the Bos-
ton Braves as far back as 1914. No
team has won two world series with
Il wasting a motion.
The Cardinals have been forced
back TO their last line Of defense and
cannot retreat farther. They have
found solace in the salvation army
cry that a man may be down but is
never out. They realize now, how
ever, that they are down in this Sc
ries and if they stumble again they
will be out.
Starting the series odds-on favor
ties, the Cardinals in four days have
seen the situation change until there
are no odds on the outcome Of the
series.
The Yankees were confident they
could not be stopped after they won
the third game when they got by Jess
Haines, who won two Of the games
the Cardinals captured in the 1926
world series. The big Ohio farmer
saw his hopes crumple about him in
two hea~rt-rending innings of the
third game. He pitched good ball
for six innings but left the mound
with six runs scored against him on
six hits when under a kinder fate he
might have gone on with only n
charged to him.
The big fellow made the same mis-
take Alexander did in New York, gave
Lou Gehrig a ball he could hit. There
was a difference of an inning but
the result was the same. Alexander
threw one down the Busters alley in
the first inning Friday and Haines
in the second yesterday. In both
cases the ball sailed out of the park.
Haines' broad shoulders bore the
brunt Of that devastating wallop but
his mates failed him w~oefully while
the other markers were being scored.
In the game that may make base
ball history today. Manager Higgins
will give Waite Hoyt a chance to win
his sixth world series game and tie
the record established by Chief Ben
der over a long stretch Of classic
pitching from 1905 70 1913. Hoyt has
won five and lost three games in the
blue ribbon event.
Against the Yankee ace Manager
McKechnie will ask Bill Sherdel TO
keep the series going. Sherdel. an
admittedly great pitcher, has had nc
luck in world series, losing his three
starts, all by close scores when he
pitched good ball but not quite good
enough. The st. Louis boss planned
TO shoot the works" in a final des-
perate effort. Should Sherdel falter.
Grover Alexander or Clarence Mitch
ell or both would be used with Rhem
and Haines available if the series
should be prolonged. II today's game
is not the last word. HugEins has

BRIDE A SUICIDE.
FOR LOVE

A bride of six months, Mrs.
Marian Tjalkens, % years old, wife
OF T. Fritz Tjalkens, captain of
walters at the New Willard Hotel,
shot and killed herself in her room
at 1416 Pennsylvania Ave. N. W.,
last night, because she thought she
had lost her husbands love. Coroner
j. Ramsey levitt issued a certifi-
1tc of suicide.
A note addressed to her husband
and found on table near by said:
You do not know the meaning of
| love. | could have done without
everything in the world but, you.
You We're everything to me, to my
last drop of blood. I never loved
like it before. You were to me the
very meaning of life. There is no
pain like knowing you don't want
| me any more. There is nothing left
OF me to live-I give it all to you.
l was happier than you will ever
be, perhaps.
You are so young and a little
bit selfishSet. But 1 have lived.
Will you send all my things TO
my sister? l want her to have
| them.
Il am glad I have courage
enough to die before I could
know any more pain. But that is,
after all, the price of happiness.
''MARIAN."
Tjalkens told police that he and
his wife, who was formerly of
Blythesville, Ark, were married six
months ago in New York. He said
that they had quarrel OF a minor
nature before he left at 6 O'Clock
to go to work, but that he had
considered it trivial.
Mrs. Tjalkens ended her life by
firing a bullet from a .32-caliber
automatic pistol through her brain.
She was dead when her husband
returned to their room at 8 O'Clock.
