~ ~
NEW YORK, Aug. Sit
strikes me that a world series
involving New York and Chicago
ball teams comes close to being
the ideal series for the country
at large. Here are the two larg-
est cities in the nation, and partl-
san feeling is likely to run higher
than in a struggle involving the
representatives of smaller cities.
The baseball fans of the Middle
West will be lined up to a great
extent against those of the East,
and each side will draw heavily
from enthusiasts in other Sec
tons.
Back in the years when the
Yankees and Giants met in three
successive series there was no mis-
taking in the feeling around the
country that New York was hav-
ing too much of a monopoly on
this world series business. We
heard it everywhere we went. The
cry was beat New York" The
victory of the Washington Sena-
tors in 1924 was extremely popu-
lar for several reasons, and one
of them was that at least half
the series was taken from New
York, which had been "hogging"
things, as the fans saw it.
When the Pirates won in 1925,
ending the four-year champion
ship reign of the Giants in the
National League, there was the
same general acclaim which fol
lowed the overthrow of the Yam
KEGS the year before.
49, Popular Near Home
For the New York fan the
world series on a scent carfare
was always extremely popular, but
it did not set so we'll away from
the metropolis. This year it ap-
peared for a time that Brooklyn
would get into the october classic
and that would mean another
''nickel world series" for the New
Yorker but the Cubs rather
spoiled this idea with their sue
cess in that big series with the
Dodgers.
Only once in the long history
Of world series games have New
York and Chicago been the cities
chiefly interested. That was in
1917 and conditions were re-
versed, as compared with those
Of this year. The Giants were
the National League representa-
tives that year, and the Chicago
White Sox represented the Ameri-
can League. This year it is be-
ginning to look as if it will be
New York representing the Amer
lean League and Chicago the Ma
tional.
SOx Of II Great
The Sox of 1917 were one of
the greatest ball teams ever put
together, and they won four out
Of the six games.
New York teams have played
representatives of Philadelphia,
Boston. st. Louis, Washington
and Pittsburgh for the highest
baseball honors, and Chicago
teams have competed with teams
from Detroit, Cincinnati, Boston
and Philadelphia, not to mention
one all-Chicago series in 1906, and
three all-New York clashes in
1891, 1922, 1923.
But none of these battles, I
believe, had the appeal that will
mark the coming series if it is
between the Cubs and the Yanks.

This oil is result of the great hydro

atmospheric nitrogen was the chemical
secret that enabled Germany to produce
unlimited quantities of explosives and
thus to carry on" years after the experts

impossible.
Hydrofining, developed by the

process which makes the INCORPORATION

Farmer Escapes
Death by Inches
Fast Train at Brooten Hit Truck
Saturday Evening; Driver
Unscratched

John Alasker missed probable
death by inches last Saturday even
ing when his Chevrolet truck was
struck by the fast 500 Line passen-
ger train, No. 100, at the local de-.
pot crossing. As fortune would
have it, Alasker escaped without a
scratch, altho the motor and front
part of he truck were badly smash
ed.
Alasker was rather vague as to
just how the accident happened.
The train, west-bound carrier,
does not stop here except by signal.
The engineer was apparently not
cognizant of the accident in view
Of the fact that the train failed to
stop or slow down after the coll
ision.
The driver was about to cross
the rails from the north side. The
left hand side of the cab next to
where he was sitting, was torn
away, the left front wheel was de-
molished and the hood and engine
jammed on the left side. The right
front wheel was intact as were also
the box, rear wheels and chassis.
The impact had apparently swung
the machine away from the tracks.
Alasker's escape from serious in
jury or death was a miracle
