Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

ON THE YANKEE SPECIAL, Oct. 6. —The Yanks ought to go on to a fairly simple victory now. They are two games in front, and this is a tremendous advantage in a short series. But more important is the unquestioned fact the Yanks are hitting. And when they are hitting they are a great ball club. Only superlative pitching is going to stop them. To date they haven't

Alexander

Was. A master craftsman and a splendid field general, he might have managed to go along reasonably well against a Yankee team that was not hitting, but Friday he had no chance, and it was evident almost from the first itch he would not last the route.

a a tt One of the Yankee substitutes, Cedric Durst, playing center in the absence of the crippled Combs, started the game by singling Sharply off one of the old man’s most dependable pitches. This was a note of warning to 60,000 fans in the stands that they were not destined to see a duplication of the 1926 series, when Alex won two games and saved another. tt tt tt AFTER Durst got on, Ruth was purposely passed with one out. This brought Behrig up. The old r:'.n tried to feed him a bad ball. 1" t the flawless control, which used t ■ enable him to put the ball T :rever he wanted it, was not t ere. He threw one up right in i.'f young Yankee first baseman’s f • mve, and a long home run Into f 3 right centerfield stand followed. That hit was the requiem over the l:;t vestige of greatness that used to lurk In the old man’s puissant arm. In the third inning he was knocked out of the box. Ruth led off with a single. Gehrig was walked. Meusel shot a double to left, and the Babe rumbled home on his short-circuited knee. Lazzeri, the one Yankee the old man can still baffle, rolled out weakly to third. Robertson was passed to fill the bases, and Bengough dropped a Texas leaguer into short right, scoring Gehrig. These colorless details are presented as an informative background to a movement in the Cardinal’s dugout. McKechnie, the manager, was motioning the old man to get out and waving to another veteran, Mitchell, who had been warming up, to come in. There should have been drama In this episode, but sitting up in the press box at the stadium and looking down on the scene you didn’t feel it. u u tt “Well, that old bird has been around a long time,” commented the telegraph operator at my right. This harsh sentence seemed to tell the story. Eddie Anderson Has Fine Record Cowboy Eddie Anderson, now training in this city for his tenround match with Tommy Crowley at the Armory Tuesday night, will be 25 years old the 10th of this month, and has been fighting seven years, during which time he had engaged in 190 ring battles.

Shirley, interjected into the lineup at quarter, demonstrated some snappy passing ability. After Underwood had smashed the Muncie line successfully in the third quarter, Shirley shot a pass to Surface for a marker. Shively, Muncie tackle, snagged a Franklin pass in the second period and dashed to goal.

Where a few days ago all was gloom over poor sick old Babe Ruth and the other alleged invalids composing the Yankee forces, there was joy today over the way these supposedly tottering warriors unwrapped themselves from their cottan rolls and not only drove off all Cardinal attacks, but waved their awn war clubs so ferociously that the procedure almost has become funny.

BY HENRY L. FARRELL NEA Service and Times Sports Writer (Special to The Indianapolis Times) NEW YORK. Oct. 6.—With another demonstration to prove that the best way to win a ball game is to get men on bases and smack them in, the Yankees walked away with the second game of the world

The Yankees went to work in the first inning and the poor person they picked out to work on was none other than old “Pete” Alexander. Gehrig Does Work Before Old Alex knew what had happpened there were three runs draped around his ancient shoulders and they were draped by Herr Louis Gehrig, who hit a homer out into the laps of the cheap customers with C'edric Durst and that pesky Babe an the bases.

I think you will find that they fight far better when they get on their home field. Remember this, the club that wins th? first two games hasn’t got the series in its pocket, by any means. That theory was disproved n 1921 and 1923. The Yankees won the first two games in 1921 and then lost the championship to the National League contenders. I think the same thing will happen this year.

removed himself from the box and walked sadly to the di'gout leaving the remains of a ruined game behind him. Pipgras started off terribly. He didn't know from his first pitch where the ball was going and he survived the first inning by the luck of the American League gods and a swell catch of a foul ball by Benny Bengough. Won Pulled Up In the second Pipgras started to go very much worse and a serious bunch of young New York infielders gathered around him. It was plain to be seen that they wanted Pipgrass relieved, but little Huggins frowned them off from the dugout. Pipgras went on from there to win the ball game. Instead of going like a billion dollars and cracking in the seventh, Pipgras started horribly and got so good as he went along that he pitched a four hit game and won pulled up. The Yankees are in a spot now where they can start old Tom Zachary in St. Louis. Sunday, and then come back with Hoyt and Pipgras. The Cards will have to use Haines and if the Yanks keep on hitting he is in for his bad news. The Yanks are odds-on favorites now to win the series.
