United Press Staff Correspondent
New York, Oct. 6.--W.R'-- The
Giants won today's world series
game but you wouldn't think SO
from the way they acted in the
dressing room. The only excited
persons in the room were a mob
of photographers who took all pos

blond hurler.
The payers marched quietly to
their lockers. A few of them let

ter yesterdays defeat.

Mancuso said Schumacher
threw more curves than usual.
They were breaking sharp and
I told him to throw them TO Geh-
rig. He wasn't scared Of that big
BABY and pitched TO him every
time.
That younGSt2r really pitched
his heart out today"
Horace StonCham, young prcSi-
, dent Of the Giants, CONGRATULATED
the players and gave Joe Moore
the ball which he hit into the
stands for double in the last inn
