BY BABE RUTH

YANKEE STADIUM, NEW
YORK, Sept. 29.-World series
ball games. like everything else,
can be very bad and I feel that
the least said about this one the
better.
1t was gratifying, of course,
since somebody had to win the
bad games, that we were able to
start off the series by winning
this one. But I feel it was with
out any question one of the worst
world series games 1 have seen,
and I have looked at plenty OF
them as a player or spectator.
1 am speaking Of the game as
a whole. There were bright spots
in it, to be sure. Particularly
Charley Rulings strike-out pitch
ing and Lou Gehrig's timely home
run. Misplays made it a little
tougher for Charley, but the way
he bore down and registered those
10 StrikeoutS was the greatest in
dividual factor in curbing the
Cubs. Nine of the 10 went down
swinging, and that was a tip-off
of the stuff which Ruffing had.
Every Hit Counted
We didn't hit up to our normal
standard, and yet scoring was easy.
Every hit we made was worth
something in a scoring way end
the poor pitching of the Cubs put
us in position to make a few
timely hits worth a flock of runs.
think the Cubs are a much
better ball team than they looked
to be today, and 1 know the
Yankees are better than they
looked. The early strain drove
Bush out before the game was
over, and it was telling on
Ruffing near the finish. He
wasn't pitching the kind of ball
which he is usually able to
show. You know in our league
he specialized in holding opposing
teams down to a few runs, and
we usually were not able to do
much scoring for him. In this
opener we did lot of scoring
and Charley was scored on six
times, but half Of these were the
result of errors.
The home run by Gehrig was
a sad blow for the Cubs. I
wouldn't say it took the heart
out of them because Charley
Grimm has a club which does
not quit, but it surely took a lot
of life out Of them.
Lead Vanishes
Here was Bush, their star
boXman, pitching his heart out
to preserve that early two-run
lead and suddenly, in the space
of a minute it is gone and the
other fellows are in front. 1
know how such a thing affects
ball club in a hard game, and
after that the game just got
away from the Cubs. Yes sir,
that home run by Lou was the
cruSher which beat the Cubs and
made the affair easier for us.
Combs and Dickey also did
some timely hitting which kept
our lead out of danger zone, and
there was snappy play by
Gehrig and Ruffing at first
base in the eighth inning, which
robbed Herman of a hit. AS I
remarked before, the game had a
few bright spots but as a ball
game it was slow and both teams
played below their normal form.
I look for a better game today.

CORPORATIONS URGED
TO BUY OWN STOCKS
Three Benefits Seen in Plan Placed
Before New York Bankers
Association.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
RYE. N. Y, June 13.-To lift the
pressure of liquidation on securities, J.
Stewart Baker of New York proposed
today that corporations with excess
working capital utilize 1t to buy their
own securities in the market
Stewart, vice chairman of the Bank
of Manhattan Trust Co., addressed the
thirty-ninth annual convention of the
New York State Bankers Association,
OF which he Is president, at the West
chester Country Club.
My suggestion is that those corpora
tons which have too much working
capital for the business which they can
reasonably expect in the near future
purchase their own securities and retire
them" he said.
1T seems to me that this would ac-
complish three things. First, it would
reduce the amount Of securities out
standing; second, 1t would cause corpo-
rations to borrow from the banks to
take care Of their seasonal requirements;
and third, 1t would benefit the remain
ing bondholders and stockholders, for
the securities, whether they be bonds.
debentures or stock, could be bought
considerably below par or book value"

HAUSNER ON SHIP
UNDER TREATMENT
Flyer Too Exhausted to Tell
! Story of His Rescue
in Atlantic.
BY the Associated Press.

S. S. CIRCE SHELL, June 49,
Stanislaus Felix Hausner. New Jersey
movie operator whose attempt at q
transatlantic flight to his native Poland
ended in the sea, was too exhausted
today to tell the story.
He was resting aboard this ship and
under treatment, but promising to be
completely restored to health before he
arrives at New Orleans, which probably
will be in two weeks
1t was decided last night to abandon
Hausner's red monoplane, ir which he
drifted for week after falling few
hundred miles short of the European
coast.
Darkness which fell shortly after
Hausner was rescued made it impossible
to pick up the plane. AS it faded from
view 1t was drifting southwark at a
speed of about one knot an hour
Hausner asked any vessel whose posi-
ton made it convenient to salvage the
plane. The position in which it was
left Is about 500 miles of Portugal.
Underwent Trying Experiences.
The brief. sketchy account of the
rescue left much to the imagination.
It was apparent, however. that Haus-
ner had undergone trying experiences
during the six or seven days he was
supposed to have drifted aboard his
plane The statement of Capt. Wilson
OF the Gree Shell that Hausner was
unable to give a coherent account Of
his battle against the sea made it ap
parent the flyer had been taxed to his
wits end to remain aboard his plane.
The fact that only the tail Of the plane
was above water when last seen indi-
Gated Hausner had chung to that alone.
The foresight he showed in taking
more than the usual supply Of food
probably saved the pilot from even
more hazardous experiences.
Unless the provisions we're swept of
the plane when it plunged into the sea,
tIausner with careful daily rationing
might have conserved the supply for
several days.

NEW YORK, June 13-The way to

Coxey last night. Is to initiate the Ma

have plenty Of money without having to
pay interest on it.

the Republican National Convention at
Chicago, where he will offer himself as
presidential candidate.
Imitation of currency" he said, 'is

our financial development, or we'll be

The Tragedy of Robert Morris
AT the beginning of the Ameri-
can revolution, Robert Morris
headed one of the largest and
most prosperous commercial
houses in Philadelphia. He was
one of the signers Of the Decla-
ration of Independence.
AS the financier of the Ameri-
can revolution, he gave the gov
eminent of his cash and credit
so unstintingly that it is said
that the American campaigns in
1880 would have been impossible
without Morris aid. He procured
munitions for General Greene, he
raised a federal loan of Sl,400,-
900 to finance Washington army
in 1881. and organized the Bank
of North America.
He refused the post of secre-
tary and eventually returned to
his business. But his private I'M
dertakings failed ultimately and
the great financier of the Ameri-
can revolution was clapped into
debtors Jail to spend the de-
Ginning years OF his useful life in
a cell (1798-1302).
