SENATORS WANT TO END SERIES Washington Team Need* Only One Gaine To Win World’s Championship By Henry L. Farrell (U. P. Staff Correspondent> Washington, Oct. 12. A .thin one game of baseball's greatest honor ami its richest prize, the Washington Sen ators were anxious to end the 1921 i world's series here today in the fifth game against Pittsburgh. Three victories in the first four games are recorded for the Senators against the National league champions three victories that mean more than a mathematical advantage. The 1824 champions now need only one game to win the championship and they have more than a good chance to take the deciding game today. The Senators were almost prohibitive favorites to win the aeries and the odds were long that they would win today behind Stanley Coveleskie. who failed to win the second game of the series. Defens Is Airtight The brilliant support that was given Walter Johnson in the few tight places he worked into during yesterday's game, made the Washington tans believe that almost any pitcher can win one more game with such spirited defense. Johnson was found for only six hits, but each of them got him in a hole and it was only the superb fielding of young Bucky Harris, his manager, and several nice catches in the outfield that enabled him to register a shutout and win his second game of the series. Johnson Injuers Leg He pitched the last five innings with a severe "Charley horse.” which he pulled trying to stretch a hit in the th inning. The Pirates had several fine chances to score but they have had such little energy with men on bases during the whole series that they were unable to make anything out of their opportunities. It was pointed out before the series started that the Senators had a better defense and had an attack that by its timeliness might be more effective than the imposing array of 300 averages in the Pittsburgh batting order It has turned out so far to be that way. Although Washington considers it a cinch that the Senators will win again there was no waning of interest in today's game. The most interesting topic seemed to involve the question "What's the matter W ith the Pirates?" Pirates are Puzzle The poor showing of the National league leaders might be explained if they were in a teriffic batting slaup. if they were crippled at a vital corner like the Senators are or if they were getting poor pitching. But their btupid baseball and their present curled up spirit cannot be explained. Bucky Harris said today he fears that "Casio" Bleuge, who was beaned by Vic Aldridge in their second game, might not be able to play in the remaining games of the series and that he would use "Buddy' Myer, the ISO,OtH) rookie, on third base. Coveleskie is sure to pitch today and if he does not win his game, Alec Ferguson will be started tomorrow. "Firpo” Marberry and Tom Zachary will be used for relief men. Bill McKechnie. manager of the Pirates, said he planned on using Lee Meadows today and Aldridge tomorrow He seemed certain that the teams are going back to Pittsburgh tonight for the sixth and seventh games of the series. o inday’s Game Ended Share For Players Washington.

/MICHIGAN TEAM ; SHOWS STRENGTH ) )' I One-sided Win Over Indiana ’ Makes Wolverines Favorite In Big Ten Race II J By Edward C. Derr <U I’, staff Correspondent) ’i Chicago. Oct 12. — Michigan and ' Ohio State, by their showings Satur- ‘ day, will be serious contenders for the * football championship of the Big Ten conference. Michigan's victory over Indiana had I been expected but nobody anticipated str h an overwhelming score as the! Wolverines piled up. Any team that can beat another conference team 63 ( to 0. has an attack that should carry ( It a long way toward the title. I Ohio State lived up to the hopes of ! its followers by holding the heavier I Chicago Maroons to a 3 to 3 tie. It the Buckeyes succed in eliminating lowa, they should find Michigan their biggest stumbling block in the path ‘ of a championship. Chicago's vaunted driving attack ' i proved useless against the scrappy Ohio line. The team that won the (Conference championship last year de[spite three tied games was forced to ( another tie in its 1925 opener. | The other conference teams were 'engaged in trial games. They came through without a fatality but Illinois was given a scare by Pat Rage's But- . ler eleven, winning by the margin of 16 to 13. Red Grange came to life' with some brilliant running but his ’ line still looked weak and slow. Only three conference games are scheduled for this week end. Illinois goes to lowa City and unless Coach Zuppke can strengthen his line he may again see the pathetic spectacle of one of the greatest backfield men of. al! time stopped behind the line of scrimmage. lowa has an improved team on the face of early performances and a victory over Illinois would not be considered a striking upset. Michigan will face a strong team st Madison. Under George Little, a graduate of Michigan school of coaching. Wisconsin has a team that many crlt-1 ics look to be among the first three t finishers. | Northwestern's wildcats, appearing, better each year since they got Glenn I Thistelwaite as their coach, meet Chicago in their annual city series and | are expected to give the Maroons an I even tougher battle that did Ohio' State. A victory for Northwestern is more than possible providing Ralph “Moon" Baker, the star halfback, can get his injured ankle into condition. o —— COLLEGE FOOTBALL lowa State. 20; Kansas. 0.

In which honors were evenly divided, the Decatur high school Yellow Jackets were defeated by the Portland Panth ers at Portland last Saturday by a score of 60. Portland's lone touch down was stored on a fumble In thi second quarter. Outside of that oni break, neither team hud an advantage Portland was a heavy favorite tt win from the Yellow Jackets before the game started, but soon after th. start it was evident that the teams! were evenly matched and that if either team won. It would win on breaks. Coach Marshall had shifted his lineup for the Portland game, and the change appeared to give strength to the team. Decatur Works Passes. Both team* had a few opportunities to score but lacked the power to crash through for a touchdown The Yellow Jackets made three first downs on three consecutive forward passes in the latter part of the second quarter and had the ball deep in Port land territory wh<>n the half ended and spoiled the rally. The team showed much improveover the showing made against Fort Wayne Central a week ago. The offense had more drive and the defense held better. "Red" Acker, who played his first game with the Yellow Jackets since the game with Auburn here September 26. bore the brunt of the team's offense. He tore through the line for games and straight-armed his way tor gains around the ends. Myers and Dierkes were strong in the line Portland Scores On Fumble In the early part of the second quarter, the Yellow Jackets gained posession of the ball on their own 20-yard line. Bogner was called back out of the line to punt. The ball waspassed back to him too high and he missed it. In the scramble for the ball, a Portland man picked it up and raced over the goal line for a touch lown. The attempt to kick goal fail ed. This ended the scoring for the game. There was a large number of De catur persons at the game.
