LEFT LANDER MAY
 PITCH NEXT GAME
Inability Of Cubs to Pound SouthpaWs Leads to Speculation

Chicago, Oct. 10 UP)-Having failed to measure up to their reput- ed ability to pound left handlers, the Chicago Cubs seem certain to be fed southpaw pitching when they re- sume the world series with the Philadelphia Athletics tomorrow.
 So great was the Cubs record against portsde hurling that Connie Mack, the Philadelphia manager, was cautious about sending in d southpaw against them, although he had at his command the services of Rube Walberg and Lefty Grove, the ace lefthanders of the American league.
 But Mack's hitters went out and got him d three run lead in yester days game and when George Earn shaw faltered in his task of stopping the Cubs, Connie immediately used | that three run advantage as an op- | portunity to test out a left handler against Joe McCarthy's men. ! He sent in Lefty Grove and the i fast ball artist proceeded to prove 1 that a left handler can throw them 1 by those great right handed hitters on the Chicago team. Lefty eXhib- ited some southpaw shots, the like of which the Cubs haven't seen this year and in so doing he proved that, 1 while the Cubs may have great record against southpaws that rec ord may be due to the fact that | they haven't faced any Groves. Grove woke up the fans when he struck out the first three men he faced. The first man who looked at his slants was Gabby Hartnett. and the Cubs catcher ended Chicago rally by swinging thrice.
 In the sixth inning. Grove pitch ed just six balls to McMillan and English and the two walked back to 1 the bench. Throughout the rest of the game it was noticeable that Lefty's dazzling speed had the Cubs swinging after the ball was in the catchers' glove.
 Groves exhibition put Mack in a really strategic position. The Phila- delphia leader now has two games up on the Cubs and both of his ace pitchers ready to start. However Connie is noted for the unusual and there were some who believed that he may continue to use right hand CTS as his starting pitchers.
 Mccarthy was in the proverbial pickle. Yesterday the As pounded the four pitchers he used for ? hits i and right now it seems that Charley Root is his best bet to open the Philadelphia end of the series.
 Root pitched fine ball in the open ing game, allowing only three hits in the five innings he hurled, but he lost the game when Jimmy FoXX belted one out of the park for a home run.
 Groves pitching yesterday seem- ed to take all the life out of the Chicago team. Before he went into the box the Cubs had started one Cl their customary uphill fights of the type which they have used to bring late inning victories all season. The three runs they scored in the fiftf put them off to good start.
 But Groves speed stopped tha' and in the closing innings when the southpaw's fast one whizzed by then so fast they could hardly see it. they were minus the pep which has char acterizcd their play all season.

bridge between Beaumont an d
Orange would give way and 10000
sandbags were on hand for an
emergency. The Orange-Port Ar

ously to accommodate traffic unable
to get over the highways.
