Traffic Officers
Now Under State

Operations of the county motor
cycle Officers will be practically the
same after they become state traffic
officers tomorrow, Frank Oswalt,
chief of the county motorcycle
squad, stated this morning.
"The only change definitely de-
cided on thus far is that the county
will be eliminated from paving the
salaries of the officers. This will
be paid by the state and will be
taken from the state budget" he
said.
The Imperial county board of sup
ervisors is still empowered to re
commend employing and lischarg
ing Officers ai they see fit, Oswalt
said. However, the state may over
rule the supervisors if they so de
sire. "But this is not likely to
happen SO long as the supervisors
show reasons for their actions, - the
chief stated.
When asked if there would be any
changes in salaries, he replied that
nothing has been made known def
nitely. There will be no change in
officers, lie said.

RIVAL BALL CLUBS
Mack Is Almost Speeches.
at Ovation Given Him

- HIBE PARK, october IA tall,

The yelling over the mad 1O-to-s de-
feat of the Cubs died as Connie Mack
67-year manager of the ball club
that had just staged the most sensa-
tional rally in world series history
looked around at his players. His
shaggy eyebrows quivered and the lines
of his face were deep from restrained
emotion.

There's No Stopping Those as
When Their Sand Is Up, Says HI

| 1t. am not so sure about that. But
l did hit 1t hard and l am not a bit
backward about taking lucky hit once
in a while.
What am trying to get over is that
the AS kept right on hustling today
and at no time did we feel that we were
licked. We had xurned on such big
innings during the league season and
we saw no reason why we couldn't do
1t In world series.
Sorry for Quinn.
All along, as wrote before the series
opened, we have determined to make
each battle with the National League
champions Just another ball game.
With that as our slogan, you will un-
derstand that we really did feel that
we could win today even when the Cubs
held that 80 lead over us.
1t Is too bad that Jack Quinn couldn't
have lasted in there until he could be
credited with the win. Our spitball
pitcher was so very anxious to win one
world series game before he hung up his
uniform. He looked pretty good for
three innings-before Charley Grimm
hit that homer and guess that stag
gered Quinn, for he was not the same
pitcher thereafter.
think the Cubs found out today that
Grove is a different kind of left
handler from any they faced in their
league. I guess they never saw fireballs
whiz by them like Grove chucked up tc
that plate In the eighth and ninth in
ming. He can do that through nine
innings, think. But he may not be
called on to do it in the series.
The Athletics now are out in front
with three victories to one for the Cubs
feel like expressing my confidence that
we will be the champions Of the world
I think that sensational win we put over
today will be mighty depressing to the
National Leaguers and they will have a
long day tomorrow to think 1t over.
Just some final words about Joe Boley
the AS Shortstop. His fielding today
was as good as any ever saw on any
diamond and he came through with a
timely hit that helped a lot in that big
seventh round. What I said about
Boley before the series still goes. He
is a ball players ball player 1 am glad
that he had q couple OF chances today
that were so marvelously executed that
the fans could pay him tribute.

BY HAZEN (KIKD CUYLER,
Chicago Cubs outfielder.

~ PHILADELPHIA, october 10
- There have been some hard luck
stories told about losing ball
4 games, but I doubt II any team
ever got the tough breaks we
did today In losing to the Athletics, 10
to g. In the fourth game Of the world
series.
In q game like that there's always a
breaking point-one play that decides
the issue. In our case today 1t wasn't
that any one particular play in the
seventh, when the AS scored all their
10 runs, that caused our defeat. 1t was
the unusual brilliance of the sun, which
blinded Charley Root, Art Nehf and
Hack Wilson.
When Bishop singled to center in the
seventh his hit was bali which Root
would have flelded but for the binding
sun. Root tried to shield his eyes q
bit and In doing so just touched the
ball and 1t went to center Geld. II he
had fielded 1t, there was q chance for
a double play.
Then when Nehf came In to pitch to
Haas, the sun shone so brightly that
Nehf couldn't even see the return throw
lack Taylor was making after every
pitch. Then Haas hit an easy ny to
center and It looked like q certain out.
When Wilson appeared to be under II

Athletics Spectacular Outfielder,

~ PHILADELPHIA, October 1.-THE
- way / like to look at today's
grand victory is that the Ath-
4 letics proved in a world series
that when players are supposed
to be frightened up that they still have
the old punch and determination to
keep on fighting-never figuring game
is ended until the final out In the
ninth.
inning today. the boys on our bench
were chattering, I'VE need only eight
runs to tie and nine to win"
Yes, that's what We said.
"Only" eight or nine.
1t was my good luck In that inning
to be the first batter to face Charley
Root, who up to that time. had been
pitching wonderful ball: / got hold of
one of his serves and hit homer. AS
passed Jimmy Foxx on my way to the
dugout, he said: We're going to get
'em now, AL"
Had Winning Feeling.
Every man in our dugout. and Capt:
Ed Collins and George Burns who were
coaching, felt that we were on our way.
And get them we did. The 10 runs we
scored am told, establishes a new
record for a single inning in q world
series. But again say my team is not
interested In the records
I honestly believe and feel that had
we needed II runs to take the lead over
the Cubs this afternoon we would have
scored them. We were on our way and
nothing could have stopped us. No
doubt Chicago supporters will be telling
how luck figured in our big inning and
In our victory. My answer to that is
that luck, or breaks, have q part In
every ball game.
1t just Happened that Hack Wilson
was looking into bright sun when
Haas clouted the fly into center. Our
middle garden is a tough spot on any
afternoon when the sun is at work
But don't forget that Haas hit that
ball. When a man keeps on swinging
and connects, he's entitled to a break
now and then.
The same thing goes for the grounder
I hit that hoped over McMillan's
shoulder. heard some one say this
would have been a double play ground
