Three Fail at Bat.

r WOULD say the failure OF three
players at the bat, Manush, Kuhel
and Bluege. cost Washington the
series. Heine Manush, one of the best
hitters in the American League, couldn' t
get going, although at times he hit
the ball rather hard. On the other
hand. Joe Kuhel. who has been a power
at the plate in the winning of the
pennant, was stopped dead.
Bluege. not a great hitter but dan
gerous in a pinch. had plenty of
chances with runners on, but couldn't
deliver. Considered the best fielding
third sacker in the American League,
he performed below standard in that
department.
New York. apparently the team of
destiny, played the better ball. pro-
duced the timely hits when they were
needed and got the better pitching and
richly deserved to win.

NATURALLY one Of the big disap-
l Y pointments Of the series from an
American League angle was
Crowdcr's inability to win. 1t was my
thought that if he was right he would
be good for two victories. However on
the form Crowder showed during the
final month Of the American League
season, I feared that he had been
pitched out in the winning of the
American League pennant His show
ing in the series was proof of my fear.

Pitching dominated the series and

Air Attack
Purdue Mentor Fears Iowa

Offensive.

By Times Special
LAFAYETTE, Ind, Nov. 15.-Out

worries plunged into Purdue's grid

The retrenchment Of the thermo-
meter to an unreasonable low mark
this morning reiterated a threat of
painfully unfavorable weather for
the Boilermakers' last home game
Saturday with Iowa.
And, while Noble Kizer's respect
for Iowa's ground offensive had not
ebbed, his apprehension that it
might be abetted by an even more
devastating aerial attack had set up
an irritation under his scalp.
Hawks Pass to Score

Hawkeyes' running attack was one
yard in the red at the last whistle,
the Hawks still gained enough to
score once against the Wolverines.
AS he saw from the statistics on
the Michigan contest that Iowa,
gaining fifty-nine but losing sixty
yards on the ground, resorted to
aerial antics to pick up 113 yards,
Kizer peered over his teams equip
ment In the line of pass defense.
It sounded entirely reasonable to
Purdue's official, as we'll as to it's

team that could harry Michigan as
gravely as did Iowa with air

Purdue in a similar manner.

Feldman had no chance against

Unfortunately not all the fakes
