Players Scatter for Winter

[Yankees and Pirates Split Earnings and Go Their Various Ways. BABE AND LOU TRAVEL Big Fellows Barnstorm; Losers Need Bolstering. U\j United Press NEW YORK, Oct. 10.—Yankee and Pirate ball players began scattering today for their winter’s rest, the world series over, and the Yankees unquestioned champions. Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig gathered their things together and started on a barnstorming expedition which will carry them as far as the Pacific Coast. Others went to their fox farms, their Florida groves, or their homes in California, the Middle West and in Texas. Only a few will remain in the East during the winter. Champs Split Winnings •.The Yankees split the series money, which amounted to $279,608.47, and each man was $5,702 richer. The Pirates were to divide their earnings today. Fans who had bought tickets for a Sunday game in New York went around asking how they should go about the business of getting their money back, and the Yankeei office was prepared to buy back the tickets as rapidly as presented. . By winning Saturday’s game and making it four straight, the Yankees made it necessary for their owners to return to fans approximately $217,000 which had been paid for tickets. It cost 'a lot of money to the Yankee ball club to win Saturday’s game. • Cuyler Trade Talk The status with the Pirates of “Kiki” Cuyler, the “benched outfield star,” may not be decided until midwinter, and it would not be surprising if he were traded to some other team. And Manager Bush probably could trade Cuyler to advantage. The little manager could use a better ball player at first base and at second base and his catching department also could be improved. With the Waner brothers and Clyde Barnhart as regulars and Adam Comorosky and Fred Brickell as healthy substitute material, Cuyler’s loss would not cripple the Pittsburgh outfield. Cuyler will receive the $3,750 or so that each Pirate will get as his share of the world series money. He deserves it for batting .310 and stealing twenty bases during the regular season until his tiffs with the management. Why Pirates Lost Whether Cuyler’s presence in the line-up during the world series would have aided the team is controversial and will be argued through the long winter months. Clyde Barnhart, who took his place, batted .312; Lloyd Waner struck a .400 average and Paul Waner .333. Thus the stickwork of the Pirate outfielders didn’t lose the seiies, nor did Lloyd’s two errors in center field make any appreciable difference. No, the Pirates lost because their infield work was loose, their catchers failed to get a safe hit and their infielders were wobbly both at bat and in the field.

BAUMAN WINS AT ROBY Takes 100-Mile Event Lecklider Suffers Broken Collar Bone. Ilil Timex Siipctnl CHICAGO.

Hoyt Praises Miljus for Gallant Stand In Final Game of Series Yankee Twirier of Opinion Pirate Relief Slab Artist Was Robbed of Hero Honors.

BY WAITE HOYT Pitcher, New York Yankees NEW YORK, Oct. 10.—The world series of 1927 is over. In the opinion of the ball player it was a decided flop. The Yankees went to Pittsburgh expecting to wage a war with a dashing, fighting, hustling ball club. The series promised games replete with drama, pathos and color. It ended that way despite the flatness of the first three games. The only opposition supplied happened in the final game. By this time the technical disruption of the game has been recorded. It has been told and retold. There are numerous incidents which have not been told. When the last game was over we, the Yankees, dashed in high glee for the clubhouse, amid wild cheers, handshaking, all sorts of congratulations. I should have been happy, exultant, beaming with joy at the unexpected victory we achieved. But, my heart was in the other clubhouse with John Miljus, the Pirate relief pitcher, who made such a courageous stand in the last inning of the final game. Plenty of Nerve I have lost two deciding games through errors, one in 1921 and one in 1926. I know positively how Miljus felt after the fatal ninth inning. It is my firm opinion Miljus was robbed out of the honor of being the greatest hero a world series has ever known. I thought of John Miljus, the nerviest, finest man I

Johnny Holly of San Francisco, who has been creating a stir in welter circles out on the coast, comes here under the management of Frank Churchill for the ten-round main go with Farmer Joe Cooper at the Armory Tuesday night.

weal Bowlers i&rT-EFTY lee

Frank Hueber the popular alley manager at the Capitol not only is a good bowler, but also is one of the keenest students of thd game in the city. In his own game and when giving instructions to new bowlers Frank has found the following rules to be of great benefit. 1— Be certain of your grip. (Loose gripping of the ball is recommended to avoid a tense feeling. Muscles should be relaxed.) 2 Don’t approach foul line too fast. (Never reach foul line before arm has been swung into position to deliver ball.) 3 Keep wrist and palm of hand toward pins as ball is released. (The wrist is stronger and causes lor greater accuracy in this position.) 4ln approaching foul line keep right shoulder up. (If right shoulder is allowed to drop, it will have a tendency to cause a back-up.) 5 Avoid cn unbalanced feeling when delivering ball. (Make your first step properly, and you are almost certain to carry through with balance, poise and rhythm.) 6 Pitch ball out at least two feet In front of foul line. (Avoid dropping the ball on the alley. Good bowlers generally agree that a ball should never touch the alley while still in the hand of the bowler.) 7_Keep the ball on right side of head pin. Vice versa for left-handers. (Constant precaution of crossing the head pin will help your game.) B—Snapß—Snap wrist when releasing the ball. (Don’t overdo this. It should be done so as to be hardly noticeable.) g—After releasing ball be sure to follow through. i A perfect bowling swing does not end at the time of releasing ball. That is half-way mark.) Jerry O’Grady announces an open sweepstake? next Sunday at the Century alleys. Added features to the cut and dried affair will be,

ever have seen work in a ball game. He struck out Gehrig with three on base. Meusel fell victim to his curves. Then by a trick of fate, he threw a side arm curve to Lazzeri which eluded Johnny Gooch permitting Earle Combs to cross the plate with the winning run. I think Tony would have struck out. The stands would have arisen in wild acclaim and rightfully so. Congratulates Pitcher I went to the Pittsburgh dressingroom after I had taken my shower and dressed. All the Pirates had gone but Ownie Bush. “I came in,” I said, “to tell Miljus I think he is one of the greatest pitchers I ever saw. He isn’t here now, but tell him for me. I am one who sees in our win today no glory.” Ownie merely replied: “Thanks, Waite, thanks a lot.” Sidelights on the series are most interesting when coming direct from the players’ bench. Called His Homer Babe Ruth just before hitting his last home run said on the bench, “I’ll hit one off Hill if he is still in there when I go to bat.” Sure enough, he busted a high one in the right field seats. His premonitions on these occasions are uncanny. When he returned to the bench last Friday he imparted a bit of repartee engaged in by Earl Smith, the Pirate catcher at the time, and himself. Said Smith, “Well, Babe, what’s on your mind this time?” Said Babe, “The right field bleachers.” ■---• • • • - *

Singleton kicked goal. Early in the third quarter, Neale broke through, blocked a kick and pounced on the ball over the line for another touchdown. Singleton’s punts, some of seventy yards, were sensational for the locals.
