AMERICAN LEAGUE HAS 13 TO 9 SERIES MARGIN Rival Major Loops Have Met 22 Times—Greatest Upsets in 1906 and 1914.
Du XEA Service NEW YORK, Sept. 27—The American and National League pennant winners met twenty-two timep in world series combat. The American has thirteen victories to its aredit against nine for the Na--lonsil. The first playoff was staged in j:o3.' The Boston Red Sox and Pittsburgh Pirates clashed that year. The Red Sox won. Thqre was no series held in 1904, but in the following year the Giants and Athletics went to the mat. The Giants 'won, taking four of the five frays. This was a most unusual classic in that in every game the losing team was blanked. In 1906 the famous “hitless wonders’’ of the Chicago, White Sox startled the entire baseball fraternity by Jefeating the stellar Cubs. The Pale Hose won four of the six tilts. In 1907 and 1908 the Cubs came back to whip Detroit. The Cubs won the first year by taking four of five games, the opening brush ending in a tie. The second fall Detroit busted through with a lone triumph in the five embroglios. In 1909 Pittsburgh and Detroit staged their memorable series, the Pirates grabbing the honors four games to thfee, winning the decisive combat, 8-0. This was the series in which Babe Adams broke into immortal fame by turning in three victories. The 1910 playoff was a walkaway for the Athletics. Mack's boys tripped the Cubs four games to one. The .following year the Athletics repeated, beating the Giants four out of six. In 1912 the Red Sox and Giants clashed. The series went eight games. Boston won four to New York's three, the other resulting in a tie. The Giants sought to atone for their failure that fall by beating the Athletics in 1913. But when the smoke of battle had cleared away the Macks were out in front, four to one. In 1914 the Boston Braves threw a wrench in the Mackian machinery and set the baseball world to gossiping by downing the Athletics four straight times. The'l9ls jfiayoff- a cinch for the Red Sox againsi the Phillies.

Cobb At Helm Again in 1927
Du United Press DETROIT, Sept. 27.—Tyrus Cobb will return next spring at the helm of the Detroit Tigers, and if he can get the pitchers v?ill be right up in the midst of the pennant fight, he told the United Press Sunday before leaving for Cleveland, where he and Tris Speaker will start on an extended hunting trip. “We have a young team," Ty said “Just a biinch of kids. They made more hits than any other club and drove in nearly As many runs. But we didn’t have the pitching. "Rainy day stories" he characterized reports that he would quit as Tiger manager. “They read good, that’s all there is to them." Cobb indicated he would play as a “reserve” next season, if “needed.” The Georgian completed his sixth year as manager of Detroit and his team finished sixth, although winning more games than it lost. PRO CLUBS TIE Du United Press GREEN BAY, Wis., feept. 27.—The Chicago Bears, and the Green Bay Packers battled to a 6-to-6 tie before the greatest crowd that ever witnessed a professional football game in this State.
The Phil®l?s could garner but one brush in five. The next fall the Red Hose came back to trim Brooklyn by the same count. In 1917 the White Sox took another fall out of the oft-defeated Giants, four tilts to two, and in 1918 the Red Sox came through again to crush the Cubs also four to two. The so-called "scandal series" of 1919 went to the Cincinnati Reds. In lp2o Cleveland slammed its way to the first world title in Forest City history since the club entered the American League. The Brooklyn Dodgers were the victims, five games to two. Then in 1921 the famous YankeeGiant argument started. The Giants won the first two years, taking five of the eight games in 1921 and four victories to none in 1922 (the second game of this playoff terminated in that famous 3-3 tie). In 1923. however, the Yanks finally came to, beating their old rivals, 4 to 2. Washington and the Giants clashed the following year, the Nationals winning four of the seven frays, while last fall Pittsburgh trimmed the Nationals, by the same count. This year the St. Louis Cardinals and New York Yankees meet, starting next Saturday at New York.

N. Y. Yankees’ Late Season Slump Turns Dopesters to St. Louis. By Henry L. Farrell, United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Sept. 27.—After having been thoroughly washed by the Tunney-Dempsey fight, the decks were being cleared today for baseball as the St. Louis Cardinals and the New York Yankees began to prepare for the 1926 world series. Boxing, golf and tennis gave away and infant football lacked the voice to draw tha attention of the public. Both teams started special training with scouts advising Rogers Hornsby and Miller Huggins about the weaknesses—if any—of their opponents. The business staff of the two clubs was knee deep in applications for tickets. The St. Louis officials have a several day advantage over New York office staff as the Yankoes refused to accept an application or a fcheck until the American League pennant had been won mathematically, finally and officially. No Demonstration New York didn’t have a civic demonstration when the Yankees won the pennant like St. Louis threw for the Cardinals. The rather blase way in which the Yankees were accepted aa victors was due primarily to the fact that world’s series games are nothing of a novelty here and New York has exhausted all her hysterics on Gertrude Ederle, Mille Corson and Gene Tunney. Interest always can be shown by ticket sales and Ed. Barrow said he had been flooded with enough advance applications since mid-season that he felt reasonably sure of a sellout. Most of the experts are lining up behind the Cardinals but after the terrible socking the experts took on the Dempsey-Tunney fight, the tennis and golf championships and other major events, it may mean that the Yankees are sure to win. Favor Cards The Cardinals are favored chiefly because they’re a younger, faster and better balanced club with the fire of ambition. The Yankees are accustomed to pennants; the Cards never have beenin a world's series. The Cardinals have more good pitchere than the Yankees and the American League championj, with a bad Mop in late season that might have caused them to lose the pennant in another week, showed signs cf being worn and stale. The Yankees, as far as actual world’s series playing, may be better money players, hut the Cardinals certainly showed no inclination to curl'up when they were fighting off the attack of the Cincinnati Reds and the Pittsburg Pirates. Gene Tunney was irritated when the critics said he was a champion not because he was so good, but because Dempsey was so bad, and St. Louis will roar when they hear the words of a New York critic, who said: “The surprise is not that the Cardinals won, but that the Pirates lost.” _ #
railroad and the Bee6h Grove band of the Big Four railroad. At a meeting of the local committee on arrangements held at the office of W. C. Downing, general agent and superintendent of the Pennsylvania railroad at the Indianapolis Union Station, it was decided to present a silver cup to the winning team, the cup to be the gift of the local athletic associations of the Big Four railroad amt- the Pennsylvania railroad and to be presented to the winning team at the banquet to be held in the Riley Room, Claypool Hotel, Saturday night.

By Dick Miller Indiana College football teams, did what they expected to do Saturday. They did just what every one else thought they would do, with one or two exceptions. Butler had little trouble romping lover Earlham, 38 to 0. Earlham is I not nearly as strong as'last year. Not hy six or seven men. “Red” Fromuth starred for Butler. He is a fine ball carrier. At Greencastle the Tigers of De Pauw. had a tussle getting away with a 28 to 7 victory over Danville Normal. De Pauw is a great deal better than last year, and the closeness of the game for an early season one went to show the real strength of the team that Ralph Cook has assembled at Danville. Cook's team pltyed through last year without defeet or being scored upon. He has several new men this year who have not got into the machine yet. Wabash Powerful Wabash showed a scoring machine and a defensive team. Evansville, which enjoyed a great season in 1925, went to the "pocket city,” crushed to the tune of 55-0. The hig Scarlet team was never In danger of being scored upon, and it demonstrated to the satisfaction of Coaches Vaughan and Reese that Wabash hos'much scoring power. Frarijdln, ran up 33 points on Indiana Central in the first half before the suburbanites got their breath. After that the Baptist subs could do poshing. The regulars rushed hack and scored one. Central, aided by some penalties, started a drive that couldn't be stopped. They scored on Franklin for the first time since their athletic relations began, three years ago. Heze eClark took his Rose Poly Engineers down to Vincennes, and stepped away to a 10-0 victory ln the lid lifter. Clark has some new men, and also some old ones. They make him a fairly well balanced machine to take to Georgetown, Ky„ next Saturday to meet a team reputed to be exceptionally strong. Vincennes, made up of former Blcknell High School stars Is reported to be better than ever. Normal in Tie Indiana State Normal of Terre Haute, went- over to Charleston, 111., to open the season and met Its equal. The battle ended, 0-0. Coach Arthur Strum had his Normallles
