So lUESDAY was a happy
I hJ day for the children
and for few of the
L older folks. A circus
- came to town, and
from early morning until the
last of the performance, the ex-
citement was in the highest key.
Could Barnum and Bailey, with
all of their expert performers
have been here, the joy of an
afternoon under big tent
would not have been more. 1t
was small circus, but it was
clean, good entertainment for
the children, who love dogs,
ponies and clowns. Either Mil
ford is off the itinerary of the
larger circuses, or else they are
no more, for it has been a num-
ber of years since they were
here. The happiest memories of
many children, are those of the
day when they were tenderly

dear, to an afternoon perform

GRID SEASON
IN FULL SWAY

United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-Fans dis
, pensed hastily with world series
postmortems today to enjoy the ris-
ing football hub-bub following Sat
urdays epidemic of upSets. This
weeks outlook shows important in
tersectional grid clashes coming
up, garniShed with the casts first
contest of major proportions.
Such collisions as Michigan-Cor-
nell, NorthweStern-Stanford, Ohio
State-Vanderbilt, and Columbia
Virginia will vie for attention over
the weekend with the big Navy
Pittsburgh brawl.
In addition, considerable inter
est will be focused on the Notre
Dame-Indiana encounter at Bloom
ington, following Notre Danes
stunning upset Saturday when held
to a scoreless tie by Kansas, and
after 1ndianas unexpected stand in
holding Minnesota to a 6-6 dead
lock. Other interesting contests will
be staged on all fronts.
Michigan, last years Big Ten
champion, and victor this season
over Michigan State, will attempt
to repel Cornell's invasion at Ann
ArbOr
Stanford jumps from California
to Chicago and is expected to have
an edge over Northwestern which
was victim of an upset TO defeat
by Iowa. Coach Tiny Thornhills
Stanford charges defeated U. c. L.
A. and Santa Clara by narrow mar
gins.
Ohio State will be favored to re-
pei Vanderbilts invasion after Sat
urday's $50 victory over Virginia.
Naturally Virginia will be on the
wrong end of betting when it in
vades Columbia, which downed Le-
high Saturday, $50.
Navy Looks Good
Navy, apparently sporting the
best eleven in years, should beat the
Pitt Panthers at Pittsburgh. The
middies downed Mercer Saturday,
25-6, a better score than Army re-
gistered against Mercer the week
before, 1876 Pittsburgh, however,
could tally only 9 to against Wash
ington and Jefferson in its first
start, although winning over West
Virginia 21-0 Saturday.
Fordham meets West Virginia at
New York this week, and should
win handily. Other eastern games
included Army-Delaware Brown
Springfield, Colgate-Rutgers, Har-
vard-New Hampshire, Princeton
Williams, and Yale Washington and
Lee.
Competition continues at full
blast in the south, but the tension
let's down somewhat on the Pacific
coast, where the Southern Califor-
mast. Marys meeting loses some
of its appeal because of st. Marys
l4-13 defeat by California.

Imperial Valley press., 1933-10-09

That turned in by George (Kiddo)
Davis, Giants centerfielder. Rated
as just another ball player, Davis
got seven hits for the second high
est average. His fielding was per-
feet.
Most disappointing batsman: Joe
Kuhel, Washington first sacker, and
Heinie Manush. Great sluggers
during the regular season, Manush
got out TWO hits and Kuhel but
three.
Outstanding infielder: Hughie
Critz, whose marvellous stops cut off
half a dozen Washington hits. After
watching him for three games Hans
Wagner pronounced the Mississip-
plan the finest fielder he had ever
seen.
Greatest throw: Joe Moore's in
the second inning of the third
game. With Whitehill on third,
Goslin lifted long fly to Moore
in left. On the dead run, Joe peg
| ged one to Mancuso that caught
WEitehill by yards.
Most perfectly executed play:
Mancuso's squeeze in the sixth in
ming of the second game, and Trav-
is Jackson's perfect bunt down the
third base line in the eleventh in
ming of the fourth game.
Most warming perform
ance: Old Aloph Luque's maginifi-
cent relief hurting in the final
game.
Biggest mystery: Why Cronin re-
fused to take Crowder out until the
game was beyond recall.
Biggest bore: That blasted pi-
geon at Griffith stadium.

CREDIT FOR
GIANTS WIN
BY STUART CAMERON
United Press Sports Editor

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-The New
York Giants, baseball's ugly duck
lings, consigned to nowhere in the
National league pennant race, were
champions of the world today ana
everybody knows just why.
In winning four on. OF five from
Washington. the Giants came
through with that unbeatable COM
bination of great pitching, alright
defense and flaming will to win.
The three are so closely bound
together that it is difficult to say
which item was most responsible.
History, however, probably will
give pitching the nod And that will
be all right for certainly the Giants
never would have won had not the
mighty Carl Hubbell and his mates
shackled the Senator batsmen.
The Giant infield. even with the
trick-kneed Travis Jackson unable
to cover as much ground as third
baseman should, played magnifi-
Gently. Particularly brilliant was
Hughie Critz, second baseman
Critz made half dozen stops that
cut off hits and choked Washing
ton rallies.
In the outfield, Moore, Davis and
OFT defied Washington batters to
drive one past them.
Those who scott at spirit on a
professional team must have learned
their lesson from the Giants. 1t was
spirit that made them a great team
instead of merely a good one. Blondy
Ryan whose now famous telegram
to Manager Bill Terry in midsea-
son lifted the Giants from wha.
threatened to be a fatal stump, Is a
fine example of what blazing will
to win can do TO a player. Ryan al
best is only an ordinary shortstor
and a weak hitter. Yet he went
through the series with only one
error in 80 chances, many OF them
difficult. He batted .278, which was
many points better than Goslin, ano
some of the other highly ratec
Washington sluggers could do.
The New York victory offered new
proof that baseball, purely a bust
ness venture though it be, is more
sporting than many amateur games

NEW YORK, Oct. 9. = Being
nothing more than few personal
opinions on the 1888 world series
which has now been tucked away
in lavender and old lace:
Outstanding player: Mine is the
same as yours. Carl Hubbell. TIE
lanky Oklahoman and his screwball
dominated the series.
Outstanding goat: A tie between
General Alvin Crowder and Ossie
Bluege. The general, one of the
American leagues greatest pitchers,
was knocked out of the box in both
starts. Bluege, famed as a money
player, failed in the crisis repeat
edly, and got batting average of
.125.
Hardest hit ball: Bill Terry's
home run to the centerfield stands
in the fourth game. The runner-up
was Goslin's poke in the second
game.
Most unusual play: Blondy Ryan's
handling of Myers roller in the
eighth inning of the first game, and
the manner in which he Tipped to
Critz for a force out. Blondy did
everything to that ball but give it
singing lessons.
/ Most dramatic moment: The last
half of the eleventh inning of the
] fourth game when the Senators
trailing l to 2, loaded the bases
against Hubblel with only one out.
/ Hardest luck player: Pinch-hitter
Bolton who ended this breathless
half inning by hitting into a double
play.
