Cubs Can Win Yet by Swinging
Into Real Stride, Cuyler asserts

delivered In the second game when it
cleared the left field wall. Not so many
balls are hit over that wall. But some
of our fellows have done it. It doesn't
mean that we can't even hit like he
does. However, he Is the one who has
delivered so far and all credit is due
him. In the first game and again in
the second he broke the ice with a
home run.
The homer hit by Simmons was
corker, because 1t was against q stiff
wind. That right field screen is not so
very far, but 1t seems long way when
the wind is coming in strong, as it was
today.
Playing in the home field of the
Mackmen will be new to our fellows,
and the general belief is that the home
team has big advantage. But now
we know that isn't true at all. The
Cubs were the home team in the first
two games, and we sure didn't play as
II we had the advantage. It may be
that in performing on a new and
strange field Wen get some lucky
breaks.
We surely need them.

BEATEN SLABMEN
STILL CUBS HOPE.
Quinn Favored by Comics
Aides to Pitch Next.
Mack Reminisces.
By the Associated Press.

6y the ASsocleteo Press.
ABOARD THE ATHLETICS SPECIAL,
en- route to Philadelphia, October TO-
The Athletics drew nearer their home
fortiflcationS today still firmly con-
WINGED that the world series of 1929
would be ended on the Eastern front.
Having conquered Root and Malone in
straight games in the Western cam
paign, the confident young Mackmen
are in no doubt of their ability to re-
peat the performance in the friendly
trenches of Shibe Park.
A survey Of the Chicago pitching sit
uation, If any, reveals that Joseph Nc
Carthy's logical course must be to toss
these same two young men back at the
Athletics. Although handicapped by
English's two errors in the ninth inning
of the opening game, Guy Bush still
failed to convince the assembled popu-
lace that he had recovered from the
blind staggers he suffered toward the
close of the National League campaign.
He remains, however, possibility for
the Philadelphia opener.
Quinn Is Choice.
The auxiliary managers of the Ath-
letics continued today to favor John
PicuS Quinn to pitch the third game
Quinn himself was so worked up over
the situation that he sat up an hour
later than usual with his inevitable
crossword puzzle.
Mr.. McGillicuddy was so alarmed
over his prospects after two victories
over the Cubs that he sat in the lounge
of the observation car in tanning bee
until long past his regular bedtime.
After the crush of two days in the vor-
tex of world series battle he seemed
genuinely glad to be safe from the
crowd. In the interchange of CONVEX
sation, which adhered strictly to games
long past, he made several interesting
revelations. 1t long has been known
that the leader of the Athletics enters
even more data than reporter upon
wigwags the signs. He revealed last
night that he has them all carefully
treasured against the day when he
must inevitably get old"
Regrets 1910 Strategy.
The master manager spoke of the
1910 series against the Cubs. He still
regretted not having sent Topsy Hart
sci to bat for Ira Thomas in the ninth
inning Of the fourth game at Chicago.
The Cubs won this one by to by
scoring one run in the ninth and an
other In the tenth, depriving the Macks
bases filled, with one out, in the ninth
and held lead of to 2 against the
late King Cole. Mr.. Mack started to
send in the diminutive Topsy to try to
coax pass from Cole. Thomas begged
to be allowed to try the hit-and-run
and hit into a double play on the first
pitch.
The Mackian special was tipping
merrily over the Alleghenies today on
the 18-hour schedule of the Broadway
Limited, crack Pennsylvania flyer The
arrival at North Philadelphia was ex-
pected to be at not later than O'Clock,
Eastern time.

AthleticS OutneIder ana Leading Hunmaker.
~ HICAGO. October l0-My club,
the Athletics. will return to
Philadelphia very hopeful, If
~ not confident. that we win end
the present world series there
not later than next Monday and will
be the champions Of the base ball
world.
we have had a shot at six of the
best pitchers on the Chicago staf. We
have hit them all hard in spots. Pat
Malone, who started yesterdays game,
was the man we thought might give us
the most trouble. But we socked him
plenty.
Malone had US winging, as they say,
for two innings yesterday when ne struck
out four batters, myself included, using
binding speed which he controlled
well. I was saving to myself. That
fellow Is going to be tough on us folks"
But when Mike Cochrane started on
Malone with a single in the third in
ming, drew a pass and Jimmy Foxx
hit that long homer into the lef-neld
bleachers, getting the AS three runs,
I knew we had the Cubs ace down for
the count.
Made to Order for Malone.
It was a day made to order for Ma
lone. The sun did no shining and I'm
here to tell you that he has the speed.
It was mighty hard to see his fast
ones coming up.
Pat might have gone along giving us
trouble to the end had 1t not been for
Cochrane's single and Foxxs homer.
The terrific clout by Jimmy, who Is
one Of the most powerful sluggers the
game has ever seen-aEd I bar none in
making that statement-took all the
heart out of Malone.
think the feature of yesterdays game
was the two big innings which my
team had. That's the way we won the
pennant. The AS invariably have had
one or two innings in any game they
won during the season.
Yesterday 1t was the third and fourth
rounds that gave Malone a headache.
It is true that in the fourth We were
helped by an error. But fumbles are
a part Of the game. They pop up in
spots many times.
The fact remains that in the clinches,
when we had the men on bases. the
hits were forthcoming to score them.
am satisfied that the Athletics have
proved to the world that they won the
American League pennant by playing
q superior brand of base ball, which
Is all than can be asked of any ball
club. I had heard some talk about
Blake and Carlson stopping us.
grant you we did not do much dam
age while Blake was on the hill yeSter-
day afternoon. but We gave Carlson's
curve ball plenty of smacking.
Grateful to Jimmy FOxx.
In our happy base ball family, we
are thanking Jimmy Foxx for putting
us out In front with two wins in the
old game sack. He hit homers in both
games that took the heart out Of the
Cubs.
It has been my experience that
nothing upsets pitcher SO much a.

Al Simmons Expects As to Win
Series Not Later Than Monday

When they got a lead, they were able
to hold it.
I will admit that the dark day was
suited to the fire balling of Earnshaw
and Grove, as it was to that of Ma
lone. The big thing in the favor Of
the AS was that in the tight spots
our pitchers were better than Malone
of any of the other National Leaguers.
Probably the turning point of the
game was the third inning. Look at
1t from any angle. We had scored
three runs in that round as result Of
Foxx's homer with two on.
am happy tonight because feel
that have done enough so far that I
will not be considered the bust of the
SERIES no matter what may happen in
the future. That home run I nit off
Carlson in the eighth inning felt good.
But 1t was not in it with the single I
pounded of Malone in the fourth.
That was my first world series hit and
I had escaped the disgrace of wear
ing the collar in my first world series.
feel sure we can win the title. For
We have some pitchers in reserve who
will give the Cubs quite as much trou-
bic as any they have seen. I feel that
we have all the better of the battling
now that we are returning to our home
lot.

pionshfp Cubs.)
HICAGO, october 10 (P).-They
don't play the game the way
we used to play it. After
watching the Athletics beat the
Cubs in the second game Of the
series, don't know whether know
base ball or not.
The game was decided by Foxx's
home run, but before that happened
Cochrane made a hit that might have
been prevented by careful pitching and
Simmons walked when there was no
real reason for passing him. There
were two out and Simmons looked fairly
easy-and yet was given a base on balls
I thought Malone pitched badly to Foxx
and allowed him to hit a fast ball over
the wall.
Nothing else counted much, but the
Cubs seemed to lose their fight and
hustle after they smashed up in the
fourth inning.
It seemed to me Malone might have
pitched a better game had he been per-
mitted to use his own Judgment re-
garding batters, and am sure that the
umpire on balls and strikes was tough
on all the pitcherS-not that 1t affected
the result, but it might have done so.
The Cubs, my old team, looked bad
and looked worse all through the game
than they really are. The Athletics
look as If they have the jump on them.
just as they did 19 years ago. I'm still
hoping, but not as cheerfully as before

Chicago Cubs Outnelder, Spectacular Hitter
and Base Stealer

HIcAGo. october 1o.-we
couldn't beat 'em in our own
park, so it looks as if we'll have
~ to do 1t in theirs.
There Is no use thinking we
aren't In a tough spot. We are and
I have seen the Cubs swing into a
rampant stride on several occasions dur
ing the season and feel sure 1t can
be done again. At least, the boys are
liable to do 1t, and If they do swing
into the same kind Of stride that they
showed almost continuously from July
4 to August Is, it will be bad for the
Mackmen.
That, Of course, is our only chance of
winning now. We will have to tear
loose and hit the ball, and we will have
to have good pitching along with 1t.
The Athletics have outhit us and
they've outfielded us in the two games
played. They have had the lucky
breaks, or at least the good breaks. We
haven't had q break and along with 1t
have played some bad base ball. We
have not hit in the pinches.
But in that second game the Cubs
showed they could hit speedy pitching
when they knocked Earnshaw out in
he was a little wild, but he was effec-
tive until we had a chance to study
him a bit, and after that we socked the
ball. At least the other boys did Still
I can't forget he famed me twice.
When Grove came in he gave US a
different brand Of stuff to look at, and
before we could get used to it the game
was over. The Cubs can hit his kind
of pitching, and feel sure 1t will be
done If we get another chance at him.
guess we'll get another chance at
him, If We can get going in the next
two days and win those games.
Just because the Athletics have won
two and we've won none Is no reason to
think they'll win the next two, or even
two out of the next three. The Cubs
are Just as liable to win two games In
q row as the Athletics are.
So far the hitting hero of the series
is Jimmy Foxx He must feel pretty
good about 1t even II we don't. He can

strikes, while Earnshaw was socked for
double by English, as well as yielding
q pass in the first frame.
But it required no more than three
innings to determine that the AS again
were destined to prevail, for 1t was In
the third that Jimmy Fox, whose home
run proved such an important factor in
their initial victory, once again dealt q
lethal blow to the hopes Of the Cubs.
On this occasion two of his mates
were on the runway-Cochrane, due to
single, and Simmons, by virtue OF
pasS-and this time, instead Of the
stand In center field, Foxx chose the
bleachers above and beyond the brick
clout.
Simmons Crashes Homer.
Later-in the eighth, to be exact
after Malone had faded from the pic
ture and Fred Blake also had gone his
way, Al Simmons took leaf from the
book of the young Sudlerville MD boy,
who bids fair to become the outstand-
ing hero of this series, and crashed one
Of Hal Carlson's offerings over the
right-feld screen. Cochrane also was
q passenger this time by reason of the
third base on balls he had drawn.
These two blows alone were enough
to settle the issue, producing total of
flve tallies, but as a precautionary
measure the AS had registered four
times in between. In round four one Of
the three hits amassed by Jimmy
Dykes, combined with Woody English's
third error of the set, pair of passes
by Malone and a sharp single by Sim
mons produced trio Of tallies, and the
other accrued in the seventh when
Miller Sandwiched q sacrifice between
bingleS that Foxx and Dykes produced
against Carlson.
The Cubs had several chances to
start something aside from the fifth
when singles by Hornsby, Wilson, Ste
phenson, Grimm and Taylor Melted
their three tallies and brought Grove
on the scene in the role of q rescuer.
Once in the third, when Earnshaw's
control levers got TANNED and he filled
the sacks with passes while tanning
pair, it was Stephenson who proved
unequal TO the task, and on the other
occasions when Grove was found for
safeties he baked the efforts Of the
Cubs to obtain more than one to q
round.

Where in the initial combat the
AS failed by two to equal the total
of eight hits achieved by the Cubs,
although they got the same num-
Der of total bases on their blows
and made even better use of them,
they yesterday not only outbatted
their opponents by 12-to-11 mar
gin but got an aggregate Of 19
bases from their blows, as against
a dozen for their foes, increased
their advantage in the element of
their timelineSS, displayed q
tighter defense afield and once
again flashed pitching Of more
effective brand.
Earnshaw Famed Seven.
Although George Earnshaw, Connie
Mack's choice for box work yesterday,
had to be withdrawn midway the pas
time under q barrage Of f1ve bingleS
that Melted the Cubs all their tallies,
he had to his credit when he retired
seven strikeouts.
And Lefty Grove, who succeeded him
and squelched the Cubs uprising by
tanning a pinch-hitter of the estab-
lished prowesS Of Gabby Hartnett, pro-
ceeded to add six more whiffs to his
list to make the combined total IS and
tie the mark established the day before
by Howard Ehmke.
This means that of the total of 81
Cubs retired in the two contests 26
we're set down via the strikeout route !;
that almost every other Bruin to come

opposing hurler.

By the Associated Press.
~ PHILADELPHIA, October 10.-Base
l. ball fans in this world series
town who have been on the
i verge Of going into ecstacies
over the double victory of the
Athletics over the Cubs, found some.
thing to worry about today.
The weather man predicted pos

Rain Is the worst thing that could
10000 rabid fans, who have waited Is
years to see world series tussle.
With the jubilant Athletics on their
lators boosted prices substantially to-
day. Two victories over the devastat-
ing Cubs, the spectators commended, put
gold borders on the pasteboards for the
three games to be played here. They
were abroad in the land early, quoting
$50 to 800 for q three-ganie pair Of
tickets that cost the original purchaser
$33. Heretofore the prices asked
ranged from $50 to SIS.
Fifty John Doe' warrants, said to
have been issued for the arrest Of spec
ulators, seemed to have little effect on
their activities. Sandwich men" adj
Vert1Stng ticket agencies have appeared
in such numbers that at times they
have the appearance of cluttering up
pedestrian traffic. If the AS had come
back from Chicago two down tickets
would have been worth about 50 per
game, SPECTATORS said.
Counterfeit tickets for the series have
made their appearance here, ard a
number have been sold. The fact that
spurious pasteboards were in circulation
was revealed to officials of the Athletics
club by ticket spectators, and as a re-
suit two men were in jail today, with
the disposition of their cases unde-
termined.
One SPECTATORS office, where tickets
are bought and sold, reported the pur-
chase of block of seats last night, and
upon checking up with the club found
that the seats were in a section not
listed at Shibe Park. Further examina-
ton revealed that the stock upon
which the counterfeits we're printed and
the printing itself differed slightly
from that of the genuine tickets. The
men arrested had about $3.50 in their
possession and several sets Of the al
legged counterfeits.
