CUTLER ID PLAY
 STAR SERIES ROLE Sat on Bench in 1927 With PiTate3-In Thick Of Fray Now

Chicago, Sept. 2S R'-World series represent changing world for the greatest base stcaler Of present day baseball, Hagen "Kik" Cuyler.
 Alternately. they have brought him fame and broken his heart.
 In 1925. this steel muscled star battcd and nclded his way to world series glory with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Two years later. because Of differences with Manager Donni" Bush. he was forced 10 warm the Pirate bench during the entire, dis astrous series with the New York Yankees.
 But the impending autumnal classic between the Cubs and Ath- lotics affords "kiIli'' an opportunity ,o more than square accounts. As one of the outstanding stars Of th" starring Cubs. he is expected to play a leading role against Connie Mack's men. And Cuyler is ready.
 "What I didn't gct a chance to do in 1927, I hope to do this time, Cuylor admitted. All season I ha.2 f-lt right. and 1 feel right now. am going to play to win, and this time when inc fans yell for me. I'll be sWinginC."
 In the 1927 series, the refusal of Bush to permit the speedy, accur- ate throwing ou;fta!d"r to play even as pinch hitter when a hit might have won foy tho Buc2. created al- most as much talk as the Ono-sidei- ncas of the series. All the cheers of the fans fell on deaf ears insofar as Bush was concerned and when trading season opened again Cuylor was traded to the Cubs for cash and players.
 BaT"ball in general, has hc"n that way 10 Cuylrr. now one of the most dangerous members of the Naunte1 Cubs murders row." Ii took him four years 1920 to 1924-boforc h. finally became regular on the Pirate team. Then in 1928 an i0- jury and some unkindly criticism from Cub fans, who expected too much of him, threw him into a m"N'ol and batting slump. This season. however, has found "rlil,i" in the same form he was in in 1925. He has pilfcrcd more bases than any player in either major lcaguo-io in all, and his batting has ranged from .315 to .37o. In addition, his throwing arm has been stronger. On only rare occasions 1 has player gone from first to thirl on a single to his right field garden. If the Cubs fail to get 10 Athletic pitchers during the coming series Nuylcr will prove more invaluable 10 Mccarthy The Bruin manag"r invariably plays a bunting. hit and run game and pitching is the least difficult to hammer.
