BY DAVIS ]. WALSH

International News Service Sports Editor
NEW YORK, Oct. with dull,
unseeing gaze, as though unable
to quite comprehend the full
enormity of it all. the New York
Giants shook off yesterdays dis
aster as best they might and came
out swinging today for the second
game of the 1887 World Series
with the New York Yankees.
The Giants were like the chap
in the tap room woh has been
Dashed with the bottle. The
only thing he can lose by trying
again is complete consciousness.
GOOD WEATHER
Practically ideal baseball wealth
err was forecast for today's game.
Partly cloudy, reduced humidity
and moderate temperatures" was
the weather mans prediction sew
eral hours before game time The
forecast indicated that excessive
sickness, due to unreasonable
humidity, would not prevail today
as it did at the series inaugural
yesterday.
This may prove blow to the
Giants as a rainy day would have
given Carl Hubbell rest after
yesterdays defeat.
They're going to pitch Cliff
Melton, the left-handded hurler
from the corn pone section Of
North Carolina, and if they fail
with him, they fail utterly. This
young man won 20 games during
the National League season. He
seems to have everything, includ'
ing the alert look of an inquiring
burro-and an enduring "hex"
against the Yankees.
MADE NO MISTAKE
They had him once. They
didn't want him. So Clifford has
vowed to get Hunk" While he's
about that particular bit of bust
ness, the Yankees plan to give
him a Scathing that will make
those large, red ears tingle and
throb. So, if you learn that some
of our more earnest athletes are
rolling about on the greensward
today, do not call the cops. It'll
be only Cliff Melton, trying to
convince the YankS that they
made a mistake.
They made none yesterday. In
fact, they practically won the Sc
rieS with their Seven-run rally in
the sixth inning against Carl Hub
bell to win by 81. I say they
practically won, because, if the
Giants can't win with Hubbell,
they'll never win without him.
Therefore, the indications were
that the series would be over in
a minimum of five games and a
maximum of six.

Premier Mussolini may have be-

address that he called the young

denied a parental edict ended his
Hollywood stay. He fatty denied
he had spoken to his father over
long distance telephone. He said:

word from my father since ar.

Mussolini said his departure
does not mean his association with
Hal Roach, film producer, has
ended. He declared he would go
ahead with his plans for making
motion pictures with Roach as a
technical associate, when he gets
back to Rome.
