Washington Still Shoutin' Over Thrilling Victory in Wild World Senes
ACCLAIM OF NATION FOR YOUNG HARRIS’ FIGHTERS Youthful Manager, Walter\Johnson, Ruel and McNeely Heroes of Title Game —Gowdy's Error Cosily, By HENRY L. FARRELL United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON. Oct. 11. —Washington yelled, shouted, whooped and cheered all night long Friday and still had a hoarse and raspy voice today to claim to the nation that their Senators were the best ball team in the world. When the Senators, champions of the American League and a national idol, beat the New York Giants, the champions of the National League. 4 to 3, twelve innings, in the seventh and decisive game of the series Friday, the town turned into something similar to a college burg filled with crazy freshmen.
Nothing at New London after a i Vale-Harvard boat race, nothing at j New Haven or Cambridge after a ; Yale-Harvard football game or noth- j ing else any place, could have ap-; proached the fervor and intensity of Washington’s celebration Friday i night when the first baseball championship of the world was knocked 1 into the city by the rookie bat of Earl McNeely. a young man from the Pacific Coast. For Many Reasons ■a Washington has a lot of good reaProns to he proud of the new baseball champions of the world. They : beat the New York Giants in one of the toughest series ever played. They outgamed them, they outspir- j lted them and they outplayed them i The winning of a world's chain pionship for the first time didn't ] bring as much joy to the heart of j Washington as did the fact that j grand old Walter Johnson got the | official credit for winning the sev- j enth and decisive game of the great-1 est series on record. Johnson will go on the books as the winner of the game, but there ■was Buck Harris, who hit a homer and who drove In two other runs with a long single, and there was “Muddy" Ruel. who hit a double in the hard twelfth inning and scored on another two-base hit by McNeely. Gowdy the “Goat” Along with all the other throbs in one of the greatest games of ball ever played was the tragic spectacle of Hank Gowdy. the hero of the 1914 series, one of the heroes of the 1917-1918 series with the A. E. F.. and the most popular player in the National League losing the series and all that dough—s2,ooo each —for the Giants. Hank stepped into his mask which he had hurled to the base-line when ( he went after Ruel's foul in the last ! inning. He kicked the thing away and then stepped into it again and stumbled, dropping the hall. Ruel, with his life at the bat prolonged by fcl.ink’s error, doubled and came in srith *he run that made the “Mas ter Mind” of that well-known John McGraw look not so good. Ruel’s punch in the pinch was just as important as McNeely’s and just as popular with the Washington, fans. Ruel is one of the idols here j and the city wept with him when he' went through six games of the series 1 without getting a hit. There was no outstanding hero in j the series, but there were flocks de I serving the D. S. C. of baseball. Much Credit to Harris Foremost, perhaps, was 28-year old Buck Harris, who out-thought. ! out-figured and out-smarted John McGraw. Harris also handled a team through three games without services of Roger Peckinpaugh. a star shortstop, backbone of the team on offense and defense. Harris, furthermore, practicallywon three games by his own efforts and labor. He is not a great hitter, if you judge by the batting averages, but he hit nearly every time he came to the plate in a pinch during the series. He scored one run Friday with a homer and drove in two others with a single In the toughest

v pinch that a playing manager could face. There were other candidates for the crown of a hero. George .Mogridge had a part in pitching two winning ball games and big Tom Zachary, considered little before the series, was credited with two victories. Goose Goslin hit three home runs. Frisch Best of Giants. The Giants had only one outstanding player—Frankie Frisch, who pulled some of the greatest plays, ever seen in a world's series. No more popular and more deserving team ever won a world championship. No finer compliment can be paid any baseball team than to have them admitted as a clean, fighting bail club. That’s the Senators! WIRE TO WALTER FROM T M Indiana Alumni Congratulate Famous Senator Pitcher, I'pon the sugeestion of William L.

A. eleven at Washington Park, Sunday afternoon at 2 o’clock when Al Fconey, boss of tV& Y. P. C. squad, starts his speed show into motion. Al has a heavy and a light backfield. They work with different lines. The fast backfield works behind a heavy line while the slashers usually can give jaway a little weight in the forward J wall. j While the Y. P. C. team got away j to a flying victory this year, it is expected Wabash will test the skill and endurance of the younger anl less experienced local machine. With Jackson, Marks, Duncan and McGlinchey showing speed, and Trenek and Hopkins, diving into the ozone for forward passes, the Wabash A. A. with its grand reputation is likely to slip a cog. , This is the age of modern football and that’s the kind of a game the Y P. C.s play.
