Fifth game-Hal Schumacher's
achievement in retiring Joe Di
Maggie, Lou Gehrig and Bill
Dickey in order, the first two on
strikeouts, with the bases full, in
the third frame, on way to 5-4
10-inning victory for Giants.
Sixth game-Relief pitching feat
OF Johnny Murphy for the Yam
KEGS In halting uphill surge of
Giants in seventh inning, with
bases full and only one run needed
to tie. The final seven-run blast
by the new world champions in
the ninth was an anti-climax
after Murphy saved the game for
Lefty ooSez. Score, l3-s.

Yankees Also Faster.

As YOU looked at the two ball clubs
through six games, the wonder
is that the Giants ever carried the
series to the ninth inning of the sixth
game. They were not only outclassed
IN power-out also in sped And they
had no edge in pitching. Bill Terry
on first base was hobbling around
on one leg. Travis Jackson at third
was in the same fix. q star veteran
who was only a ghost Of the once
great infielder. Whitehead, a brilliant
defensive man at second. couldn't hit
the sit Of his hat There was moth
ing consistent about the Giants. They
could start a rally-but they had no
one left to carry it along.
The best example of this is shown

Ching the Series Its Autopsy.

Old men Of Manhattan describes
them.
Travis Jackson, a great ball player
in his day, was pitiful. He couldn't
move of a subway slug. couldn't hit,
and, when he did get his hands on q
ball, he was won't to mum it or throw
it away. Terry at first base really
was a hospital case, what with his
knee.
Fitz gave all he had in one
mighty effort and had nothing
left. Even the great Hubs arm
lacked what It took to come
back.
After the series ended and the
Giants disbanded last night you got
the impression that they. themselves,
had not taken themselves too seriously.
The defeat that really hurt-Fitz's first
game-had been forgotten. Joe Moore
strutted out of the club house with q
grin on his face. Dick Bartell cut
up with q party Of friends when he
had dressed and started for his hotel.
They knew, once the Yanks nosed
out Fritz and pounded the weary Hub,
that it was all over.
Series Newcomers Steal Show.
THE Yanks overpowered the Giants.
There was youth on the Rupert
Rifles and it surged to the pinnacle of
achievement IN the series whereas the
tired old men Of the Terrymen merely
went through the motions. Jake
Powell was new to series play. but
he was not blinded or awed by the
glamor and importance Of it.
Instead, he not only outplayed
the veteran Moore In every way,
but led both clubs In batting
with ASS average.
Red Rolfe, at third base, played
rings around jackson. who may have
ended his days as q Giant regular
And 1t was no contest between the
pair when it came to hitting. Gehrig
is no youngster. but the Yankee power
house was by far stronger and spryer
than Terry.
Crosettit held his own with Bartell
at ShortStop and did almost as well
on the offense as the little Giant.
Dickey didn't hit much, but he
matched the faultless Mancuso behind
the bat.
In center field, the youthful
Jimmy Ripple stood out in con-
trast to most Of the Giants with
his batting and fielding and
speed. but Jimmy had no edge
over the Yanks' Di Maggie.
Even In right field, where the
Giants Mel OFT was supposed to stand
in class by himself, the Yanks pro-
duced a match for him in George
Selkirk. who hit two homers to Otis
one and played a great game all the
way.

sembled and renewed the first solemn
compact made between their people

Mr. Goerch not only insults DR.. Nc

tons had been reversed and if DR..
Mcdonald had been nominated bv the
Democrats, we believe that Mr.. Hoev

any, if Mr.. Grissom had been elected
this week." He thus attacks the
democracy, political honesty, SINGER
lty of purpose and good sportsman
ship OF our next governor, who for
forty years has been on of the most
loyal Democrats in the State.
Not only does he viciously attack
those two fine gentlemen, but indi-
rectly attacks the democracy and
craftsmanship of every other Demo
cratic candidate in North Carolina.

( This attack upon Dr. Mcdonald and
others was untrue, uncouth, indecent.
libelous, scandalous, unethical. and
devoid of editorial propriety, consid-

selves?
