Remember Last Year?


nON'T be misled by all this talk of
how We will tear apart the Giants
or the Cubs in the world SERIES" Nc
Carthy said when I caught up with
him day or so ago. "Listen-there
are two fine ball clubs. Nobody tears
them apart and the Yankees don't
figure to do it, either. And don't
forget that each of them is eager for
a shot at us-eager to even matters
with us for what happened In past
world series. We beat the Cubs in
1882 and the Giants last year-and no
matter which club comes through this
time, we'll have our hands full.
Remember last years series? Sure,
we won. But Hubbell beat us the
first time out and Schumacher beat
us-and if he hadn't got a bad break
on a ball hit back Of him, Fituim-
mons might have beaten us, too. He
came pretty close to it. We had to
be lucky-with fellow who rates as
one OF the best fielding pitchers in
the game bobbling on a ball that:
y times out Of 10, he would have
stuck in his hip pocket.
Well, suppose Fftz had won that
game? That would have put 4
little different face on the series.
wouldn't it? With. that game under
tneir belts. there Is no telling what
the Giants would have done. That
shows you how close these things car,
oe-and how uncertain. We won the
serles-but a ball hit back to a
pitcher might have turned the whole
business upside down.

r RIGHT now it's his infield that's
Memphis Bills big headache
Hardly as steadfast as the rock-bound
coast of Maine, it's shown definite
gaps at the seams recently, notably
around first base. inexperienced
Johnny Mccarthy remains at that
stand, however, for the very odd rea-
son that he's been hitting too con-
sistently to be displaced.
The Giants, with "a games to go

play only six at home. The Bruins,
to make things tougher, have IA Of
their 21 remaining engagements at
Wrigley Field.
Right now everything points to
three poker hands-full houses-when
the Giants move into the Cub park a
week from today for a three-game
stay. Those games may very well be
clinchers in race that, from stand
point of conclusions definitely arrived
at, might we'll be starting all over
again as going into the final three
weeks drive.
There is a possibility, however, that
either contender will walk into the
world series over a doormat laid down
by their respective "stooges." The
Terrymen, who have beaten Brooklyn
IL out of IS tries, close out the year
with three appearances in Flatbush.
The Cubs, having won IL of is from
the Cards, will meet them in six of

REDS READY TO PAY
HIGH FOR new PILOT
Four Mentioned in Running for
Berth Dresser Loses-Club
to Be Revamped.

BY the Associated Press.
CINCINNATI, September 14.-The
Cincinnati Reds went into a
doubleheader with Brooklyn today IN
der new temporary pilot.
Charlie Chuck Dresser, released
OF his managerial duties he held for
three years, packed his belongings at
the clubhouse and said he had no
definite plans for the future beyond
Il still will continue in base ball"
General Manager Warren c. Giles
named Bobby Wallace, who has spent
nearly so years in the game, as acting
pilot.
Coaches Tom Sheehan and George
Kelly, who Dresser once insisted re-
main with the club over managerial
protests, also were given their uncon-
ditional releases.
Speculation turned today to Dres-
sens successor, but Giles said the
appointment would not be considered
until after the world series" The
sudden dismissal announcement nev-
ertheless started base ball circles to
guessing among Manager Jimmy Will
son of the Philadelphia Phillies, Casey
Stengel, former Dodgers pilot, Rab-
bit Maranville of the Montreal Inter-
national club and Frank Lefty
O'Doul, field general of the San Fran
cisco Seals.
"We have the money to get the best
man available" commented Powell
Crosley, ir., owner of the last-place
National League club.
Giles reiterated that a complete
revamping Of the team would be made
this Winter.

well, he has been with the Yam

is some percentage points under
Hartnett with his 1921 figure. But
Slim Willie drives across runs and
catches more games these days than
Gabby. Is his total of 1l6 runs driven
in, as against Hartnetts 64, stronger
recommendation than Gabby's more
intelligent catching?
Anyway, regardless of how you
weigh assets, it's Dickey or Hart
nett . with Dickey going on
this ballot.
Lou Gehrig is a perennial figure on
these ferocious, all-conquering paper
teams, but this time Hank Greenberg
threatens to run off with the first
base post. And why not? Gehrig Is
hitting 1854 with the best ball club in
base ball and has driven across 1856
runs. But High-Up Hank, with the
Tigers. has 1853 average, has scored
more runs, and has batted in 154.
One unblusting vote for Hankus
Pankus. Is that a National Lacquer
yelling the name of Johnny Mize?
One Vote for Travis

ringer and Billy Herman have been
