CHICAGO, Oct. 6.-The Chicago
Cubs were leading the New York Yam
KEGS here this afternoon in the second
world series game in the fourth inning.
The score was to 2.
Dizzy Dean, crippled but willing,
went to the mound in a desperate try
to put the Cubs back into the series
as some 10000 shivering spectators,
sensing a dramatic battle, watched.
Opposed to the great star of yester-
day was Vernon lefty Gomez, out
to become the first player in the big
classics history to win six straight
series games without defeat.
Like yesterday, when the wind
whistled and the Yankees opened with
brilliant offensive and defensive
display to beat the Cubs, 81, it was
blustery, chilly day. Fur coats made
their first appearance Of the season.
Gomez was heavily favored. The
brisk wind, whipping across Lake
Michigan toward home plate, enabled
Lefty to hook his fast one across with
more speed than ever. The Senor ap-
peared in great shape as he warmed
up, whereas Diz seemed restless and
uneasy.
The Yankees, except for Gomez in
the box, stood pat on their line-uR
but the Cubs made an outfield shit
which found Frank Demaree in hss
old right-field spot, Joe Marty in cen-
ter and batting cleanup and Carl
Reynolds shifting from center to left.
FIRST INNING.
YANKEES-Dean's first pitch to
Cresetti was called strike. Crosetti
then sent long fly to Reynolds who
took the ball with his back almost
against the left field wall. Dean
made nice stop on Rolfe's bunt and
threw to Collins to retire him in
close play. Jurges went back on the
grass to take Henrich's fly. No runs,
no hits, no errors, none left.
CUBS-The crowd cheered as Hack,
first man up, came to bat for the Cubs.
Hack dropped single in left and an
other loud cheer went up. Herman
struck out, swinging at sharp-break-
ing curve. Demaree singled between
first and second base into right field,
sanding Hack to third. When Rolfe
fumbled Henrichs throw-in Demaree
went to second but Hack held third.
1t was an error for Rolfe. Di Maggie
backed against the wall in left center
to take Marty's fly, Hack scoring after
the catch. Demaree went to third
on the throw-in. Reynolds struck out
on low inside pitch. One run, two
hits, one error, one left.

SECOND INNING.
YANKEES-Dean was throwing
nothing but slow stuff" to the Yankees.
Manager Joe Mccarthy came out Of
the Yankee dugout as the team came
to bat and had Umpire Sears tell the
fans in the box seats along the right
field line to take their coats of the
wall. Di Maggie singled over Jurges'
hnQH into left rnpfor TT h5c fret
hit Of the series The Cub bullpen be-
came busy as Gehrig went to bat. Two
pitchers, Left-nander Larry French
and the veteran right-hander, Jack
Russell, started to warm up. Gehrig
walked on five pitches. Hartnett and
Dean conferred near the mound.
Dickey flied to Jurges, who again went
back on the grass to make the catch.
Marty came all the way over to short
right field and took Selkirk's fly and
the crowd went wild as Dizzy appeared
to be pitching his way out of a tight
spot. Marty called time as the sun
came out wanly and went in to get
pair of sun glasses on the Cub bench.
Hack and Jurges collided in going after
Gordon's easy roller and it rolled all
the way into left field for a two-base
hit. Di Maggie and Gehrig both
scored on the play. Gomez flied to
Reynolds in short left. Two runs, two
hits, no errors, one left.
CUBSTHartnett sent a long fly to
Heinrich in right. With a southpaw
pitching, Collins, a switch hitter,
shifted to right-hand batter. Collins
bounced a single off Rolfe's glove.
Jurges forced Collins at second, Rolfe
to Gordon, but Jurges was safe at first
on the fielder's choice Crosetti threw
out Dean on nice play. No runs, one
hit, no errors, one left.

THIRD INNING.
YANKEES-Reynolds ran all the
way to the left-field corner to take
Crosetti's fly. Herman took Roife's
bounder and threw him out. Herman
also threw out Heinrich, and the crowd
roared as Dizzy's "nuthin' bali was
definitely Handwriting the Yankee hit
ters. His curve was breaking more
than foot as it crossed the plate. No
runs, no hits, no errors, none left.
CUBS-Hack beat out an infleld hit.
The ball went by Rolfe but Crosetti,
backing up the play, stopped it. His
throw, however, was too late to catch
the runner. Herman's bouncer went
to Crosetti near second base and the
Cub second baseman beat it out for a
single. Hack stopped at second.
Demaree bunted and Dickey threw him
out. Dickey fell fielding the ball and
