PLAYING AFIELD -With Billy EvansmWO reasons, both logical, can be offered for the poor showing of the Pittsburgh Pirates in losing four straight games to the New York Yankees. • One relates to the power of psychology and the other was an inferiority complex from which Pitts-
burgh seemed to suffering throughout the series. It is my belief the batting practice in which the Yankees indulged in, the day prior to the opening of the series, as well as the day on whi ch v it started, had much to do with the poor show-
Evans
ing of the Pittsburgh team. Taking their workout the day before the series opened, Ruth and Gehrig drove a number of balls over the right field barrier at Forbes Field, while other New York batters hit the ball to all corners of the lot. * * * PIRATES SAW SLUGGING ——iHILE all this was happening, \Y7 the Pirates, who had pracW ticed first, sat in the stands and watched the Yankees give a perfect demonstration of their remarkable batting power. This may have been a desired gesture on the part of Miller Huggins. No doubt he told the pitchers who worked in batting practice to lay the ball right over. Whatever his instructions, the Yankees couldn’t have loc ed more formidable at the bat than they did that day. On the day of the opener, I sat on the Pittsburgh bench talking with Ownie Bush, while the Yankees took their batting practice. All four Pittsburgh pitchers who expected to work in the series, Kremer, Aldridge, Meadows and Hill, were lined up beside the Pittsburgh bench, watching intently the methods of the Yankee batsmen. As on the previous day, the Yanks were in a batting mood. The psychology of the Yankees’ bats undoubtedly had a far-reach-ing effect on the Pirate stuff. * * * WERE BELOW FORM OHROUGHOUT the series the Pirates seemed to be suffering from an inferiority complex. After watching the New York club in action prior to the opening of the series, the players acted as if they believed all the complimentary things that had been written about the American League champions. With the possible exception of the last game, there didn’t seem to be any fight in the-Pirates. The team as a whole acted as if they realized New York was a better club and ultimately would triumph. Pittsburgh played as if the team had burned itself out in winning the pennant and early conceded in their own minds the Yanks were the tetter team. For that reason the series lacked the interest that usually goes with the fall classic. New York Is unquestionably the better team, but in justice to the Pirates it must be said Bush’s club was far below form and never got going.

By United Press LYNCHBURG, Va., Oct. 15.—The “Shoeless Wonders” football team of the Presbyterian Orphanage here bids fair to equal its defeatless season of last year. In the opening game Thursday the barefoot team defeated Virginia Episcopal, 19 to 0. The only shoe worn by the team during play is that used by Blair Watts, 17-year-old quarter back, for kicking. He discards the shoe as soon as the kick is off, and sometihies, in the heat of battle, does not wear it even when punting.

Throng of 80,000 Expected at Intersectional Fray in Baltimore. TEST FOR BOTH TEAMS •'Carry Fight/ Was Plan of Middie Warriors. BY FRANK GETTY, United Press Sports Editor BALTIMORE, Md„ Oct. 15.—A shrill whistle, followed by the hollow boom of the kick-off, today was to send scampering into action the fighting elevens of Notre Dame and the Navy in the second big intersectional football game of 1927. The flaming Irish were slight favorites, but “Navy Bill” Ingram and Ljne Coach Rip Miller had a powerful Middle eleven on edge for the combat. From the Gibson Island Country Club, some thirty miles from the big Baltimore stadium where - the game was to be played, the Notre Dame coach sent word that he would start his strongest team against the Navy. The municipal stadium was expected to hold a throng of 80,000 for this first meeting between the teams of Annapolis and South Bend. It is the ambition of Notre Dame to form a "national big three,” with the Army and Navy as the other members. Last year the Irish defeated the Army, and it was an off-tackle run of 62 yards by “Texas Christy” Flannagan, back field star of the present eleven, that turned , the trick. The Navy were going to watch Flannagan closely today, and also one Niemic, who punts, passes and skips around with the ball in a most dangerous manner. Knute Rockne brought forty players here for today’s game, and was expected to use perhaps 25 of them before it was over. The Navy was relying upon sheer power. LlSyd, a former end and now the Middies’ greatest back field threat, was to receive the big test of his career against the Irish. • A scoring game was anticipated. The Navy had been drilled in a mobile defense by Rip Miller, .who knows full well the Rockne attack, having been one of the Irish linesmen on the famous 1924 team. “Navy will try to carry the fight to Notre Dame, and force the goirr coach. Delaney Proves Easy Winner in Renault Scrap Du United Press NEW YORK, Oct. 15.—Speed and superb irng generalship won a victory over weight for Jack Delaney in a ten-round battle Friday night with Jack Renault of Canada. Fighting in Madison Square Garde nbefore a crowd of 16,000 Delaney outpointed his opponent constantly, although outweighted by 19% pounds. The former light heavyweight who surrendered his title to engage i nheavyweight contests was Renault’s master at long range. Although the former light heavyweight champion showed up well in the battle, he did not give any indication of becoming an important member of the heavy ranks. He did not impress the fans as a contender for the title.

1927 Campaign Was Long Season of Grief for.Ra' Schalk’s White Sox Troubles Started in Spring Training and After June 1 Chicago Team Passed From Running.
Rli United Press CHICAGO, Oct. 15.—1f there was one team in the major leagues which was glad when the 1927 baseball season ended it was the Chicago White Sox. Although some teams finished farther down than Ray Schalk’s outfit, there are few of them who experienced the misfortunes which befell the White Sox. To begin with, Johnny Mostil, known to ballplayers as Melancholy John, and one of the best outfielders ih the business, was seized with one of his fits of melancholy in the spring and an attempt at suicide climaxed it. Fail to Hit Shortly after the season got under way Schalks pitchers hit a fine stride and things looked rosy—but not for long, she reason being that the team couldn’t hit. The Sox hit their batting slump around June 1 and despite every possible maneuver by Schalk, it may be said that the Chicago team never g6t out of the slump. Then came an avalanche of ball games lost by one run. Naturally the losing of a game by one run—and consistent losing of them —is heart breaking to pitchers. Case of Thomas As an indication of the handicaps the pitchers have worked under, the case of Alphonse Thomas may be taken into consideration. Thomas got away to a fine start, winning something like twelve of the

S.H.S.lsOnly Local Team to Win Game Manual, Tech, Washington Are Defeated in Friday Contests. TODAY Thorntown at Bovs Prep. Cathedral at New. Albany. Indianapolis high school football teams fared i ot so well in Friday contests, Shortridge being the only local aggregation to turn in a vtetory. The North Siders romped to r.n easy 33 to 0 win over Noblesville at the City champ's new field. The locals opened up late in the game and had little difficulty piling up the score. Five Touchdowns The half ended, 14 to 0. Miller and Captain Skinner each scored two touchdowns and Butz one, for the Blue and White. There were several ‘breaks’’ in the Tech-Morton of Richmond game at the east side field, and curiously enough all went against the Green. The Richmond crew, by outplaying the locals late in the game, won, 12 to 0. One “break” occurred in the second quarter when Lippincott picked up a Richmond fumble and raced eighty yards down the field. The ball was called back because it had been “killed” at the point of recovery by the inadvertant blowing of the whistle. Brazil Triumphs Manual was unable to show much strength against Brazil at Zrazil and went down to an 18-to-6 defeat. Burris and Owens played prominent parts in the scoring of Manual’s only points. South Side of Ft. Wayne drubbed Washington, 58 to 6. Heinrick scored the Indianapolis team's only touchdown. South Side was much stronger than the west siders and scored at will.
fifteen games he worked. He wound up the season with only nineteen wins. The important point is that nine of the sixteen defeats he sustained were lost by a one-run margin. In none of the nine games did the opposition make more than four runs. Schalk, in his first year as a manager, no doubt,-j*an into as much hard luck as any manager who ever made a debut in the majors.

The champion was born at Grand Rapids, Mich., Sept. 14, 1087, and christened Stanislaus Klecal.
