GIANTS TAKE 2

SERIES OPENER
McGraw and Clan Get Back
Into Thick of National Loop
Running by Wins
NV The Associated Press)

In the excitement over Connie
Mack's bold bid for the American
league pennant, the desperate bat
tie being waged in John Heydler's
circuit has been somewhat over
looked for the past week or 80.
While the Athletics and the Yam
KEGS had an off-day yesterday be-
fore resuming their vital four-game
series at the Yankee stadium, the
New York Giants inaugurated their
four-day eight-game series at Bos-
ton by taking both ends Of a double
header with the Braves to / and
II to o and thereby pushed them
selves back into the thick Of the
running.
This double victory for the clan
McGraw, combined with defeats for
St. Louis and Chicago, left the
Giants only q single percentage
point back Of the Cubs and but
three games removed from the
league-leading Cardinals.
Bowling to the Cincinnati Reds, z
to 2, in the opening game Of the Sc
ries, the Cardinals lost their third
straight game but kept intact their
two and half game lead over the
second place Cubs who gracefully
dropped one to the Pittsburgh Pr
rates, Z to 5.
Eight pitchers were on display as
the Pirates turned back the Cubs
and only Burleigh Grimes and
Charlie Root were effective, Grimes
hanging up his 23rd victory Of the
year at last. The Pirates punched
their hits for al their runs in the
fourth and fifth innings.
Brooklyn and Philadelphia divided
q double-header. The Pills took the
opener, IL to 6, with the aid of
Charlie Klein's home run and three
singles. William Watson Clark
pitched the Robins to victory in the
closing engagement, Z to 2.
With the two leaders idle, the
American league program was fea-
tured by the Chicago White Sox

ninth victory in their last ten games.

Jawn Has Nine Pennants to
McGillicuddy's Six, But
Philadelphia Athletic Man
ager Broke Up a Wonder
Team in 1914 for the Thrill
of Rebuilding
BY CHARLES p. STACK
ASSOCIATED Press Staff Writer)

New York, Sept. 11.-LP)-World's
series authorized by and played un-
der the jurisdiction Of the National
Commission got under way in 1905.
The games that season brought to-
gether as opposing leaders and tacti-
clans John J. McGraw and Connie
Mack, then in the youth Of their
managerial careers.
Today these two baseball generals
are still leading their respective
teams, each having served his club
continuously, a longer period than
that OF any other manager in the
history Of the national game. They
became rivals for the honor Of lead
ing the most pennant-winning teams
and were running a close race until
the Athletics manager in 1914
wrecked a championship club to build
anew.
At that time he led Manager Nc
Graw by one in the number Of pen
nants won, but in the intervening
years the Giants have added four
flags to their string, while Manager
Mack toiled in vain to produce an
other winner. Up to this year Nc
Graw had managed nine pennant
winners to Meck's six.
Series Was. Unique
The 1905 worlds series remains
unique among all those that have
been played in that each Of the five
games that year was shutout. Gen.
orally speaking, it was a tight"
series, indicated by the fact that in
the five games a total Of only IS
runs was scored and the two teams
combined made only 81 hits.
Christy Mathewson performed the
remarkable feat Of shutting out the
American League champions three
times, q record which, in view Of
changed conditions since that year,
probably will stand for all time.
Matty and the late Eddie Plank,
the greatest southpaw Of his time,
were the opposing pitchers in the
first game, which New York won 8
to 0. The Giants got to Plank for
ten hits, while Matty allowed four.
The Athletics reversed the score in
the second game, getting three runs
on six hits off Joe McGinnity and
Leon Ames, while the National
League champions failed to tally on
the four hits they got of "Chief"
Bender.
Mathewson Pulled Miracle
With two-day rest Mathewson
pitched the third game and duplicated
his feat Of the opening contest,
again allowing the Athletics four
hits and no runs. The Giants scored
nine runs on as many hits off Andy
Coakley.
"Iron Man" McGinnity contracted
the shut-out habit in the fourth
game. He was obliged to do it in
order to have the Giants win, for
they were able to score only one run
against the brilliantly pitching Of
Plank, who held the McGraw men to
four hits. Philadelphia got ono more
off McCinnity.
What proved the final game Of the
series was = 2 to 0 victory for the
Giants with Mathewson opposing
Bender in the box. "Big Six" al
lowed six hits, two move than in
each Of his other two games, while
his teammates were held to five by
the Indian. 4
Roger Bresnahan, now . coach
with the Giants, did the catching for
them ia that series, while the late

nal High school in Illinois, where
he won letters in football, basketball
and baseball, and continued at Lake
Forest, where he was football cap

lected as the outstanding tackle in
Central Illinois. Hibbs was q stu
dent at Glendale high school in Cali
1ornia for one year, not being eli
Eiblc for football but -'~ving basket
hall. He graduated from Lake For
est in 1925, and registered at South
cTn California in September Of that
year. Hibbs was selected as honor
airy captain Of the 1925 freshman
tsani 1t the end Of the season.
The Glendale lad, weighing 100
pounds and standing 5-11 tall, was q
regular on the Trojan varsity from
tho start Of his sophomore year, los
ing only twelve minutes out Of the
entire playing time during the 1926

DEEPEN RIVER
Plan For Controlling
Floods to be Given
Congress

YAKIMA. Wash "a plan for
controlling the Mississippi by max
ing the mighty river dig its own bed
deeper BY means Of pile dikes is TO
be brought to the attention Of on
sress.
The method is that suggested years
ago by James Buchanan Eads, cele-
brated engineer, who designed the
~jetties at tie mouth Of the river. Its
present sponsor is w. G. Price, Va
kima engineer who worked with Eads
and who intends TO offer the scheme
70 congress through the national
flood commission and the ways and
means committee.
Reforestation and reservoirs would
be OF little assistance IN regulating
the Mississippi. Price says. because
most Of the rainfall in the river basin
occurs below points where such aids
could be placed. No leyees are safe
from breaking, in his opinion, and the
higher the levee the greater the ca
tastrophe If it collapses, he declares.
The problem cen be solved" Price
explains, only By causing the current
10 dig deeper so that the carrying ca
pacity Of the river will be sufficiently
increased TO render high levecs I'M
necessary. The only way the Mis-
sissippi can be forced TO do that Is
10 prevent the caving Of the banks
by a revetment which the stream can
not move, sink or destroy. This task
may take more years than most Of
Us have to live and should have been
begun in 1883 when Eads, then presi-
dent of the Mississippi river commits
sion. wanted to build that type Of re-
yetment."
The pile dikes suggested by Price
would consist OF a series Of large
wooden cribs filled with willows. TIM
Der and rocks ard covered with woven
willow mattresses.
The banks between the proposed
dikes," Price asserts, will cave in a
river bend. forming a s~calloped shore,
but ! have noticed that the amount Of
this caving is limited. The greater
the distance between the dikcs the
larger and deeper the scallop, and the
DEEPER the s~callop the farther the riv-
er has 10 travel. This reduces tie
velocity. so the stream will take a
short cut from dixie to dixie and pro-
dlce an eddy in the s~callop with in
sufficient velocity to cause further
caving Of the bank.
The space between dikes may
vary from one-fourth mile in sharp
bends 10 n mile or more in long
bends. Where there is n long. sharp
bend or loop q cutoff should be made
which will increase the velocity and
power Of the river TO dig deeper.
spur dikes can be so constructed
that they will not be wrecked by the
high velocity water from a cutoff"
