a They won because they played the game that
characteristic of city champions There's getting around
that though this department did concde the Cubs the
4 biggest chance of winning the series.
Manager Horsby OF the Cubs had the arrogance to ask
DOME Bush why that the Sox didn't play that type
baseba they showed in the series all The question
be answered in number of ways. But along with
several thousands of Chicago baseball would like
to know why this Hornsby gentleman Xxi Cuyer Hack
Wilson, folded UP their world series against the Phia
depha Athletics two years ago The persons named were
consstent with their bdgeons all during that they
called themselves "nurdePers row. When came their time
engage the seasons biggest SERIES they appeared as
sthey the convicted murderers row. All they did
simply set record for srkeout in that series The White
Sox all know has been used going up against such
hard the Athletics the New York Yankees the Wash
ngton Senator's and tn Cleveland Indians year They

so pitchers Boosting such records those of Lefty Grove
and George Eashaw but the fact that they have hit this
M pair hard in this series off any overwhelming degree
Of superiority that think Messrs Grove and
g. Earnshaw possess.
u Too much be said about John Lester "Pep-

G. game here year against big league
much similar to that of Martins We inclined
to think that ST. Louis makes it speciality of producing
"a sensational ball players. Again will say Cards will
Sc win if they get any breaks" of the games.
