Bud Connolly got five hits in

And he accepted thirteen chances,
eight being assists and five putouts.
Going into the eighth trailing, 8

AS under dogs the Yankees
enter the world series against
the st. Louis Cardinals, and as
under dogs the Yanks ever
have proven that their bite is
worse than their bark.
The National League champions
are quoted favorites to win the COM
ing series at rapidly frightening
Odds The Yankees have hardly one
whole ball player on their list OF
eligibles.
Babe Ruth is limping, Tony Lag
zeri can hardly spoon nome his
spaghetti, Lou Gehrig has a goose
egg lump on his Uranium, Joe Dugan
has a trick knee that will jump
everywhere except through the
hoop, Mark Koenig's tonsils are
heavier than his hitting, while Herb
Pennock and Earl Combs, a ball
club in themselves, have joined the
dear friends of the radio audi
ence" who will take their world
series with a little static.
What to Look For
Yet to my mind the best indica-
ton of what may be expected of
the New York club when it faces
the Cardinals is to be found in
fond recollections of the last series
which the Yankees played with the
Philadelphia Athletics during the
second week in September.
The Yankees had listened to the
triumphant trumpeting of the
Mackmen as the American League
lead changed hands while a startled
baseball world looked on amazed.
And then the Yankees, not much
stronger intrinsically than at the
present time, arose and spanked
those same White Elephants until
they squeaIed for mercy and de-
parted for the West and subsequent
oblivion.
When they start anything as I'M
der dogs, the Yankees are exceed
ingly hard to beat. The Cardinals
are logical favorites on form, but
their American League rivals are
likely to mangle the dope sheet.
All Seats Sold
Attendance figures may be broken
once more. Already all the reserved
seats, both for New York and st.
Louis, have been sold. There will be
10000 vacancies on Thursday, how
ever, for the boys and girls who
don't mind getting in line outside
Yankee Stadium.
Little remains to be done. Presi-
dent Heydler today named the two
National League umpires who will
work the series with Brick Owen
and w. A. MCGOWAN. The National
arbiters selected were Charles Rig
Ter and Charles Pfirman.
Next to the groundkeepers out at
the stadium, about the busiest man
in town is he who is trying, belated-
ly, to buy tickets.

YankS Have More Power
Than Cards.
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY.
United Press STAFF Correspondent

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-The Yankees
are not the goliaths of 1927, but,
extensively, they shape up as more
powerful team than the Cardinals.
That is, when they are whole and
all together. Badly crippled, the
YankS may not be able to muster
the needed drive in a short series.
The Yankees two big guns, Ruth
and Gehrig, are better than the
Cards two big guns, Bottomley and
Hafey. Ruth and Gehrig have each
driven in 140 runs. Bottomley has
driven in 1919 runs, leading the ST.
Louis club in this respect. Hafey
has driven in 113.
Gehirg has the best batting av-
erage OF any player on either team,
with a mark of 1863. Hafey is the
Cards leading hitter and stands
second to Gehrig on both teams,
with mark of $40.
The team batting averages follow:
Team G. r. H. RBI Pet.
Yankees ...,... 1851 $50 1887 8O6 .294
Cardinals ...... 151 1872 1,49O 725 .2S5
Man for man, the Yanks excel
the Cards at every position except
left field and catcher. Both regu-
lar catchers, Bengough and Wilson,
have the same batting average,
while the Yanks would have the
bet hitting center fielder if Combs
were in the game.
A comparison of the individual
batting averages follows: ....
