TWO TEAMS
OPPOSITE
IN STYLE
BY Babe Ruth

NEW YORK, Oct. lit
isn't individual play that wins
q worlds series. It's the
whole bloomin' team, as a
whole. ~
That's why l never believed much
in this individual comparison OF the
competing players. After all II
doesn't make lot of difference
whether Foxx Is better first base
man than Grimm or English is a
better shortstop than Boley. From
the standpoint of the ball players,
those are the fellows who are going
to be in there and good or bad,
they'll have to stand or fall on what
they can do.
The job of the rival manages. In
any world series, is to get the best
he can out of the material he has,
and the wise manager doesn't waste
time worrying whether the other
fellows catching, or outfielding. or
Unfolding is better or worse than
his own.
Before you can dope any world
series you've got to size up the
clubs as whOle-and that's
what I'm going to attempt to do
in my first few articles.
Experience counts for lot, and
fighting spirit and disposition and
will to win. Naturally both clubs
have these things to certain degree.
If they hadn't they couldn't have
Won the pennant in their respective
leagues. Yet, in many ways they
are very different both as to make
UP and methods of play.
Despite the fact that the AS are
q hard hitting club they are really
q defensive rather than an offensive
outfit. What | mean is that Connie
Mack abs developed in them a de-
fensive style of play. He has EN-
phasized pitching and fielding on
the theory that the first big job Is
to hold the other fellows score down.
After that is done then there's time
to go out and score runs for your
self.
The Cubs. on the other hand. are
strictly an offensive team. Don't
misunderstood me. They have g pod
pitching just as the AS have good
hitting, but fundamentally they've.
developed their game on a 5corlng
basis. That's the first big diffe-c-
ence.
The Cubs, from all I can learn.
are a more colorful outfit to watch
than the AS. They do things with
a little more of swing and their
fighting spirit is little more notice
able. The AS are of a bull dog
type. They don't make much fuss
about anything. They just graz a
mouthful and then hang on.
That of course is a reflection Ct
the managerial types which handle
the two clubs. Mccarthy Is some
thing like John McGraw-a driver
who keeps his men going at full
speed every minute and works on

Miller Huggins. There was born
the respect which later turned to
affection. Then and there was born
the bud of character which later
blossomed into such fragrance that
yesterday a whole sports world
mourned and refused to be COM
forted.
Miller Huggins fought because he
was born to fight: he won because
he wouldn't be denied--and he died
knowing that his life had not been
lived in vain.
He was a man, was Hug, with
more real manhood crowded into his
120-pound frame than is found in
most men twice his size and physi-
cal stamina.

Nixon his chance to break into

But back of all that was some
thing more-back of mere incident
was the Unborn character of man
destined to write his name nigh
in a world where only accomplish
ment counts-not because he got
the breaks but because he had the
stuff of which heroes are made.
Miller Higgins early knew some
thing of life's handicaps. To him
was given a frailty of stature and
q weakness Of physique which cost
linn much personal esteem. To him,
TOO, was given a quiet. unobtrusive,
almost shy, manner that smacked
