HOYT IS EXPECTING
HARD GAME TODAY
Hopes to Win, but Recog-
nizeS SherdeI Is a
Formidable Foe.
BY WAITE HOYT,
Pitcher, New York Yankees.

ST. LOUIS, october 9-We did not
humble the Cardinals yesterday Ruth
hit no home runs, nor did any one else.
Impossible. 1t rainsd. The rain was
no bargain. 1t just served to delay the
festivities day longer, besides causing
the Yankees to hang around the hotel,
chewing their finegrnailS.
Everything so far has been moving
along serenely. We hate to be inter-
rupted.
From the conversation you hear in
the hotels you would think it Is all
over but the whoopee which follows
such an event. Not SO, my lad, not So
The Yankees must take one more game
and that is not always easy. / grant
you the task seems simple, particularly
to the onlookerS. But have to pitch
that game, and 1t is hard for me to
wait for the start.
1 will have tough baby to beat in
Sherdel, who always is at his best
against the Yankees. He has lost three
games to us and so far has been unable
TO get a break. He is about due to win
a series contest. We realize this, so we
will be bearing down at all times
1t is our ambition to win four straight
now that the chance presents itself.
The feat of winning eight straight in
TWO consecutive world series never has
been accomplished.
I imagine the Cardinals have no.
ticed quite change in the Yankees
since 1926. At that time they pushed
us over in seven games. Two years
have seen the Yankees develop into one
Of the most powerful base ball machines
ever assembled. The Cardinals we be-
lieve, are not as formidable as they
were in 1926.
Thus far they have played as If tired.
However, any club will look that way
when not hitting Haines Is a much
better pitcher than his Sundays per-
Torrance showed. We were tickled to
get him out of the way. Hafey has not
been at all dangerous, although every
one knows he lis a remarkable hitter.
After day of rest McKechnie's men
might snap out of their slump and show
some real base ball. firmly believe,
though that their team morale is at
its lowest ebb.
AS the matter stands now the Cardi-
mails are nat on their back Certainly
we are not going to help them up. That
they will have to do for themselves.

ARTILLERY RIDERS
DEFEATED AT POLO
War Whites Score Surprise
Victory in Opening Tour
ney Match.

Sixteenth Field Artillery riders of
Fort Myer. Va, we're to face the Army
team from Governors Island, N. Y,
this afternoon at $3.50 o'clock on the
Potomac Park oval in the second match
of the annual Fall high-goal polo tour
nament, which opened yesterday under
auspices Of the War Department Polo
Association.
At the same time tomorrow afternoon
the Engineer School of Fort Hum
phreys, Va, and War Whites, 13-to-8
victor over Sd Cavalry malletmen yes
terday in the opening match of the
tournament, will come to grips.
Given handicap Of three goals. the
victory of the Whites, which eliminated
Sd Cavalry from the tournament, was
rather surprising. The Fort Myer four
has been showing strongly all season,
and while the Whites have displayed
good form generally, its work has not
been so markedly superior to those of
the other combinations cavorting on
the Potomac Park field as in former
seasons.
War Whites from the outset per-
formed with a dash and coordination
of play that rendered its opponents vir-
tually impoteft during the early stages
proved the high scorer, the riders in
white rang up two goals, each in the
first and second chukker and one in
the third before the Cavalrymen got
busy in the third period and scored a
trio of markers.
In the third period the malletmen
from across the Potomac rallied briskly
and showed across three tallies, Lieut..
Wofford, who was the teams high
scorer, making two of them.
However, in the sixth chukker Whites
came back aggressively to score a pair
of goals, and one each by them In the
seventh and eighth sessions clinched
the verdict.

All good golfers, all long drivers
and long iron players use finger
grip. Finlay, who Is one of the
longest off the tee in amateur ranks,
tries to grip his club with the ends
of his long fingers. That gives him
added distance from wrists to club
head and greater speed at contact
as result. Tommy Armour like
wise accents this point in his play.
With long iron no golfer Is his
superior.
The finger tips are needed not
only ON the putting green, where
they give one sense Of touch, but
in the long shots as well. In them
rest the nerve centerS.
Many golfers with overlapping
grip think that is all there is to
this grip. They would undoubtedly
get longer tee shots without sacri-
ficing direction and much better &C.
curacy with their irons If they
gripped with the first and second
joints Of their fingers. This gives
cne feeling of security. II you do
not know how to do this, the best
way is to grip with the fingers of
the left first, with thumb down the
top of the shaft, and then grip with
the right over this thumb. Then
you'll have the feeling that your
palms are not in contact with the
shaft. Tomorrow--grips for driving,
pitching and putting.

trated leaflet' on "Slicing" which h

WASHINGTON, Jan. 6.-Two deserters from the United States Marines, and captured by rebel Gen. Sandino as they sought to escape from the Nicaraguan war zone. are believed by Marine off cers in Nicaragua. to have turned their military training to account by helping in instruction of the rebel troops.
 An official report relayed from the front to the Marine Corps headquarters. said it is believed the two men agreed to teach Sandino's soldiers how to shoot, under threat that they would be taken before real firing squad if they refused
 Marine intelligence officers said they had no proof beyond the report which has come to them from Marine officers in Nicaragua but pointed out that in recent attacks on the Ameri- can forces with resulting mount ing list of American casualties, that Sandino's troops were unusual familiar with Ma rine Corps methods.
