Breaks Away
Just this past weekend two

tackle and in daylight, with soft
crabs for bait, took from water
that was only five feet deep, large

to top it off, they hooked on a
bluefish that was easily two feet
long, and all but cleaned the rig.

Try it out anyway, with blood

About Col. Terry and
That Famous WiSecrGck.
These Are the Giants

those who probably are least
justified in taking such q posi-
ton are the baseball people.
Free newspaper publicity, col
umns and columns and reams
and reams and miles and miles
Of it, has built their game UP
from corner lot FOUNDERS into a
big and prosperous commercial
enterprise.
But Bill Terry is one Of those
fellows whose slips seem to come
back to haunt him. Take the
case of the now famous rs
Brooklyn still in the Lacquer"
remark. The truth about that
printed in this space once be.
fore-is quite different from the
generally accepted theory.
No Sarcasm Meant
Terry was not INDUCING in
sarcasm whatever at the ex.
pense Of the Brooklyn club.
Nothing, I'm sure, could have
been further from his mind.
He was in New York during
the winter and the baseball
writers went to the offices Of
the Giants to interview him.
Among the scribes was Ros.
coe McGowen, who covers
Brooklyn baseball for the
Times. Roscoe had his Roscoe
with him and he was shooting
at a story with a Brooklyn
angle. 1t CHANGED to be a
period in which there hadn't
been any news on the Dodgers
for some time. No trades, no
purchases, no managerial
rumors. All was quiet on the
Gowanus.
So McGowen said to the
colonel:
"What about the Dodgers,
what do you hear about them?"
"Say," replied Terry, II
haven't heard much about that
team lately, are they still in the
league?"
And now the Giants, coming
down to the wire in two games
with the Dodgers. with their
world series dough scattered
around the bases like beer kegs
at a picnic game, all Of Brook
Ign seems to be going about
with fists clinched, muttering
through set lips:
"Are we still in the league,

CARDINALS GET
EDGE TODAY IN
GIANT TIE
BY FRANK BUCK" O'NEILL
Times Staff Writer

The rush of the st. Louis Cardi-
nails, the most sensational develop
ment in baseball since the head
long dash of the Boston Braves
Of 1914, has carried them abreast
Of the rocking and Keeling Giants.
They're tied on the eve of the
world series, all square and two
to go.
The Giants have two games
with the Brooklyn Robins. The
Cards have two with the hapless
Reds. An even break will bring
about a playoff for the pennant.
the first in all the history of the
National League.
One of these two teams must
win two while the other loses one,
or win one while the other loses
two. If each wins one and loses
one they will 60 into the playoff,
and, in such a case, the Cards are
the team to carry your dough.
Weather a Factor
The weather now looms as i'm
portant. If it should rain in New
York, or if the storm should break
over St. Louis, the hopes Of one
or the other would be washed out.
The Reds and Cards played on a
frog pond yesterday, but they're
ready to do the same thing over
again if the necessity arises to.
day.
frankie Frisch has boldly an.
nounced his plans. They may be
expressed: "Aut Deans, aut null.
lis" without Deans, nothing.
Dizzy Dean pitched yesterday
and Daffy Dean will go today.
Then Dizzy will go back to the
hill tomorrow for the final game.
Now let it be said that Daffy
Dean paul in private life) is not
at all daffy. He is a quiet, re-
served and well.mannered young
man who, with fanatical love for
his brother, will follow him any
place. Mostly he follows Dizzy
into trouble, as witness the Dean
strike against the Cards.
The Giants have FitzsimmonS
and Schumacher to hurl against
the Dodgers, who are all set and
ready to hurl back these Giants.
According to the best information
this writer has available, Carl
Hubbelrs arm finally weakened
under overwork and now is as
sore as an aching heart.
Well, if that is true, then you
can write off SO per cent of the
pennant chances of the Giants
right now, and you can come
close to counting them out of all
world series consideration.
There is, of course, grave dan.
ger that Dizzy and Daffy will pay
the price of chain gang folly if
they are worked in the next two
days. They may go into the
world series worn down so that
they will be a soft touch for the
Detroit fence.busters.

In the Present Crisis
BY BILL CORUM

NEW YORK, Sept. 29.-It is
amazing - the attitude New
York has taken toward the Gil

National League pennant. In.
stead Of roofing for them. three
fourths Of the fans seem to be
laughing at them. I don't un-

Admitting that Manager Bill
Terry is not the most popular
pilot in baseball, that he has,
ct times, been guilty of a lack
of tact, this still is your town
and my town and the Giants
are your ball team and my ball
team. They are the New York
Giants and, whether you believe
it or not, the New York Giants
have been through the years a
terrific advertisement for the
city Of New York.

American citizen and the first
thing he thinks Of is New York.

Spise 'em, it was hard to ignore
the Giants when McGraw was
the man.
My immediate boss on this
newspaper had a little fling at
Colonel Terry the other day.
That was his personal opinion.
Even if it were polite, it would
be unfair for me to question it.
Through 10 years of association
he has never questioned my

he takes lemon with his tea?
And If so, let's see him take
little lemon with his tea right

What FarnSworth was aiming
at was not so much the specific
