Gehrig Most Imposing Figure.

1NLESS all signs to date are un-
- Trustworthy Lou Gehrig will
emerge from the set of contests
now under way as the most imposing
individual figure. It was this remark
ably durable larruper who put skids un-
der the Cubs with titanic home run
inserted at a psychological moment IN
the initial combat, and the same bulky
form which played the most prominent
part in the second straight victory OF
the Yankees yesterday, when he con-
nected with safeties on his first three
times I'D and scored two markers hlm-
self, in addition to driving in one.
AS in the opening engagement, the
Cubs got off in front yesterday when
they tailed at the outset on tumble
by Crosetti after Herman had doubled,
but the Yanks lost no time overcoming
that advantage and it was Gehrlg VINO
initiated the onslaught. Louis contrlbu-
ton in this first inning was a single
that scored the tying tally, After both
Combs and SeWell had walked. Dlckey
mt the Yanks in front with another
safety.
After Stephenson's double and DEM
aree's single had brought the Cubs up
to even terms in the third, the Yanks
pushed over another pair of markers
and Lou again was factor. His sec
ond safety, coming after a pass to Ruth,
was followed by an Intentional walk to
Dickey, which filled the bases. The
hitherto impotent Chapman then blast
ed runs over.
Thereafter the Cubs merely threat
ened on a couple of occasions, but
thanks to Gehrig the Yanakees were
not through. for in the fifth he blazed
the trail for their No. 5 run with his
third successive single, riding home On
another clean rap by Dickey.

tainly was wonderful. Gomez
pitched a great game.
I suppose you want me to tell you
about that play on third base; when
Combs and ! were both caught.
When the Cubs trapped Combs,
in that fourth inning, between third
and home, he slowed up to give me
a chance to come around, so pass
ed second and went to third. Then
it appeared to me that Combs had
slid back safely and, as the bag be-
lcnged to him. I started back for
second. II you can get the other
team to throw the ball around On
such a play. there is always chance
for a bad heave and a score.
A good play the fans may not
have noticed was when LaZzeri put
on the hit-alld-run in the fifth and
got Gehrig to second. That gave US
a run.
Stephenson still seems to be head
and shoulders above the other Chi
cago hitters..
Don't overlook that running catch
Demaree made off Crosetti. He
played that ball well and made the
catch in the face of a bad sun.
My guess for our pitcher in the
first Chicago game is Allen. I sup
pose the Cubs will send in Root.

~ ECISIVELY repulsed for the

upon their well-establshed Prov

they have demonstrated thus far.
Under the combined efforts of, first,
Rogers Hornsby and then Charley

sively proved they are almost invincible
In their own yard and they are hopeful
OF a turn in fortune which will enable
them to offset the immense advantage
now held by Lou Gehrig and company.
Junior Loop More Sturdy.
THEIR splendid record at Wrigley
L Field during the recently -ended
pennant campaign was achieved
at the expense of National League clubs
exclusively, however. It happens that
their foes in the current set are from
another loop, the American, and those
who witnessed the initial pair of skir-
Eishes again have concluded there must
be a wide difference between the
strength of the two organizations.
A heavy preponderance CT triumphs
Tor American League representatives
antedating the victory of Bucky Harris
Nationals over the Giants in 1924 gave
rise to the nosion that there must be
something in the claim that the Ameri-
can League has a decided edge over
Its rival major circuit.
Evidence in rebuttal ives offered last
Fall when the Cardinals bested Connie
Mack's fading Athletic machine in four
games out of seven, but the idea has
been revived by the comparatively easy
manner In which the busters from the
Bronx are cleaning up with the Windy
City warriors in the current set.
When this world series got under way.
It was contended by supporters of the
pride of North Side Chicago that while
their attacking strength was rated con-
siderably under that of Joe McCarthy's
maulers, their margin CT superiority in
the box would more than offset it. but
thus far it hasn't worked out that way

of his experience rightfully was ranked
as the trump pitching card of the Cubs.

the route in loosely played contest, in
which the Yankees doubled the tally of
their adversaries. despite only ordinary
hurling on the part of his opponent,
R:d Ruff1ng.
Then, coming back with the sensa-
tional Lon Warnecke. acknowledged ace
of the Bruins box deartment this year,
the Chicago chieftain was chagrined
to discover he was unequal to the task
of matching skill with the just as youth
full Vernon Gomez. whose performances
in the closing weeks of the campaign
indicated he had gone stale.
