TRIBE SELLS PITCHER FRANK HENRY TO N. Y. GIANTS
i ERROR IS COSTLY (Continued From Page 8) brought O’Farrell up, a mightydangerous batsman. A base hit meant a run. With neither side having scored, It was a crucial spot for Ruether. A mighty smart pitcher, usually at his best In the pinches. Ruether decided to take no chances on the hard-hitting catcher of the Cardinals. He must either hit a bad ball or walk. In a sense a base on j?alls would really Improve the situation for Ruether. With men oh first second and one out and the rather weak hitting Thevenow up, the table would be all set for a double play. Stage Is Set It seemed as if Ruether’s strategy would work out perfectly when Thevenow grounded sharply to Lazzeri. Tony handled the ball fast and accurately to Koenig, forcing O'Farrell at second and setting the stage for a double play that would retire the side and get Ruether out of trouble. With the base paths terribly slow k is a result of the hard rain there ’was no need for Koenig to hurry his throw and it seemed as if Thevenow would be out by ten feet. At this point, inexperience asserted Itself. Koenig did the very thing that was unnecessary, hurrying the play and making a wild heave that escaped the frantic effoi'ts of Gehrig to block It, the ball rolling to the stand. Koenig’s costly misply permitted Bell to race over the plate with the

first run of the game. It proved to be all that was necessary for a Cardinal victory, as the Tanks were helpless before the fine pitching of Haines. • Hits Near Wild Pitch Then to add luster to his superb twirling, Haines reached out and hit a near wild pitch for a home run into the right-field bleachers. It was one of those cheap home runs that I said was certain to play a big part in the ultimate series result. Meusel backed up against the wall and watched it gently drop into the stands, just out of his reach. Those three runs proved far too much for the Tanks, who again were more or less silent at the bat; getting only five hits. Koenig’s unfortunate misplay proved the undoing of the Tanks and the passing of Ruether from the picture. Manager Huggins has had his pitching plans upset by Ruether’s failure to win. It Is Just possible he -will come back with Pennock in the fourth game in an effort to stop the Cardinals. STARS IN SECOND ROUND Miss Collett and Mrs. Stetson Win . Golf Matches. Bu United Press PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 6.—Miss Glenna Collett, dethroned national women’s golf champion, reached the second round in the Berthellyn cup tournament here today, and so may yet have an opportunity to meet the national champion, Mrs. G.

Wisner Becomes Indian Property Two Other Players Will Be Sent. By Eddie Ash Another Indian goes to the big leagues. Pitcher Frank (Dutch) Henry, the hard-luck southpaw, was sold to the New Tork Giants today in a player transaction that gives the TMbe the property rights to Pitcher Jack Wisner and two other pastlmers to be named later. It is believed Pitcher Davies, a left-harder, will be one of the new athletes to come to the Indians Owper William C. Smith wired information concerning the trade from New Tork, and he said it was his opinion and Ownle Bush’s opinion that the deal would benefit the 1927 Tribe squad. Many Close Games Henry won and lost about the same number of games the past seasoq, but many of his defeats were by one or two runs when , the Indians were not hitting. He often expressed a keen desire to get another chance in the majors and urged Smith and Bush to do their best to get him the opportunity. Henry had a trial with the Brooklyn Robins before coming to the Tribe in the Jess Petty transaction in the spring of 1925. At that time he said an Injured throwing arm handicapped him in his efforts to measure up to big league standard. Jack Wisner came to the Indians with Grover Hartley when Catcher Florence was taken by the Giants. Jack was sent here on option, and the Henry sale cancels the New York strings on the tall hurler and he becomes the sole the Hoosiers. Wisner Capable Wisner, when in form, is a hard flinger to beat and young enough to be a mainstay for several years. With the graduation of Henry, the Tribe loses its *plnch-hitting pitcher. He was used often by Manager Bush in the pinch role and he delivered on numerous occasions. He is a natural athlete and proved a capable outfielder when Bush pressed him into service in the pasture. Catcner Hugh McMullin of the Giants will be with the Louisville Colonels next season. He goes to Bill Meyer’s Club in part payment for Catcher A1 Devormer.

BY MAJOR HOOPLE SPORTSMAN PARK, ST. LOUIS, Mo., Oct. 6. —Egad folks, pardon my yawn, ho-waw-liuin. After a restless and wakeful night on my reserved pool table at the Insomnia Hotel, I am reporting the game today between snatches of sleep. Some ruffian in back of me insists upon making my silk hut a target for peanut shells. If he persists in that tomfoolery I shall jirlse and admonish him in eighty-sylable words. The game Is called Into play, and so are thirty or more thousand throats. The throng is so partisan that just the Cardinals are playing. All the rooting for the Tanks that I can perceive, comes from the Tanks' coaches. Two Cardinal players appeared on base, and rain clouds began to gather. Tht! cVowd was insistent that they were clouds from New York, egad. Threats were beginning to be uttered setting a price on the weather man's head. The inning went over with Just the clouds scoring. Mr. Ruth Hits Mr. Ruth hit a single, and the ell ence was broken by someone tapping their rubber heels in the cen ter field bleachers. Rain began to fall and the quartet of umpires consulted to withhold ’.he contest. The game is temporarily called off. General talk taken up the St. Louis fans of presenting the weather man with a gold-handled umbrella. The crew of the Hesperus sjxyit the next half hour in a downpour, rolling the canvas over the diamond. Just as the diamond was covered, the drizzle stopped and the sun came out. My word, what contrary weather. Hereafter I shall refer to its as wife weather. What appears to be thunder, enters into the program. But it is only the echo of the St. Louis fans during the first three innings. While the crowds In the stands waited Impatiently, I started a debate with my old friend Nick Altrock. The subject was salted peanuts versus pretzels: I took the negative

and two cigars. The pretzels won by a 2,000-barrel margin. Weather Man Forgiven The game is resumed with Mr. Ruth on second base, and talk is now taken up of lynching the weather man. The Inning goes over with no damage to St. Louis. And the weather man Is forgiven. The Cardinals then began to play baseball and havoc. One exfh scored. Bedlam breaks and so do a thousand ear drums. Then the St. Louis hurler bashed a home run, scoring a teammate and himself. I will not describe the howling. No doubt you heard It. Another run tallied the next Inning. The cheering forced the sun to set a half hour earlier on St. Louis. In closing let me state that the ; real heroes of the world's series so far, are the St. Ix>uis street cleaners, egad.
