Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

Chicago. Oct. 5. A FELLOW can get all the tickets for the world series he wants out here. The only trouble is they are phonies. If you happen to have that sappy look—as your correspondent undoubtedly has —fast chattering gents will approach you in the whisper-lows, hotel lobbies and pool rooms and offer to fix you up with a box of six right back of home plate and at only a 50 per cent boost over the regular tariff. Os course I doubt that even the great William B. Shearer could talk himself into a genuine box back of anything either here or in Philly, but I am told these fraudulent seats are sold with great frequency to the “softies" every hour. MM* A jrreat deal of pop-eyed puhMrity ha* been *lven to the fact that many of the aeata have fallen Into the hands of the “spec*,” this ha* been water on the wheel of the counterfeiter*—lf you like that kind of a phrase—because It Is very hard to tell an honest ‘'spec'' from a dishonest "spec.” or yice versa. tt M M AT ANT RATS THE LOCAL REGIMENTS REPRESENTING WHAT IS LOOSELY CALLED THE LAW OUT HERE HAVE BEEN CALLED BACK FROM THE FRONT LINE TRENCHES AND TURNED LOOSE ON THE CULPRITS AND IF THIS DOESN'T COMPLETELY ELIMINATE THE CONDITION. NOBODY WILL BE SURPRISED. MUM WILLIAM HARRISON DEMPSEY admitted he was disappointed that the Chicago citizenry failed to rally in greater numbers to the support of his first personally promoted fistic enterprise. Instead of the anticipated sell-out the show attracted less than 8,000 and cash in-take was nearly $20,000 under what a capacity crowd would have brought. Inasmuch as it cost Dempsey $35,000 to open the doors of the remodeled coliseum he missed clearing all expenses by about $5,000. MUM As > matter of fact the card drew all that It ts worth and more. Fields was not defending his title and be was fighting an opponent he had twice beaten. Dempscy was counting too heavily on his per- ' sonai magnetism. a M M I THINK HIS VANITY WAS HURT i WHEN THE CUSTOMERS DIDN'T SWARM j ALL OVER THE PLACE. IT TAKES THESE CHAMPIONS A LONG TIME TO ! REALIZE THAT ONCE THEY HANG UP j THE GLOVES THEY AUTOMATICALLY i DROP TO THE STATE OF ORDINARY CITIZENS SO FAR AS THE TICKET BUYERS ARE CONCERNED.

BUB HOWEVER, Dempsey Insists he will continue to promote out here, and he talks vaguely of a heavyweight tournament featuring among others, Max Schmeling, Tufly Griffiths and Otto Von Porat, with a grand finale at Soldiers’ field on the lake front next summer. That’s his big idea—an outdoor spectacle with Rickardian touches. He now says he doesn’t expect to make any big money at the Coliseum. nun Ton ran t>rt all Ihr fish In thr aquarlnm that Drmpsev baa no tdro of tree rllmbine bark through thr ropes with thosr five ounce piecra ready for action. Thr lontrr hr stays away thr more permanently retired he becomes, and he has been away now a little more than two years. Ts he fouxht acaln it wouldn't be before tatr next summer. That would mean he would be trying to come hack after a longer layoff than thr previous one. when he returned to be punched around thr ring by Gene Tunney In Philadelphia. It was that layoff as much as anything else that whipped him then. nun IWAS talking to the fair Estelle about Dempsey at the ringside here Thursday night. “Are you going to let this guy fight again?” I asked. “Frankly I can never tell what Jack is going to do,” she replied, turning a pair of limpid brown eyes on me that left me fluttery. "Well, he could pick up another big wad of dough by taking one more fling at it,” I purred villainously. “Yes, and then spend it all on doctors and treatment and such,” she almost blazed. “I'd just as soon see him doing this.” man And It Colonel wrrr a wagering soul hr would lay it on thr line thick and heavy that thr fair Estelle will see to It In some way or other that Mr. Dempsey keeps on doing just that.

Defending Champ Favorite to Capture Fourth National Links Crown. PLAY OVER 36 HOLES Californians Survive Field of America’s Feminine Aces. BY BERT DEMBY United Press Staff Correspondent DETROIT, Mich., Oct. s.—Glenna Collett was the favorite today to win the final match of the thirtythird national women’s golf tournament and a fourth American championship, an honor which no woman yet has held. Blocking her way was Mrs. Leona Pressler, a fellow Californian. Both players have reached the finals by defeating classy opponents. Mrs. Pressler has come through easier than Miss Collett, disposing of Mrs. Gregg Lifur, Los Angeles, Marion Turpie, New Orleans; Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd, a three times American champion, and Bernice Wall, Oshkosh, Wis. The three and two score which Miss Wall held her to Friday was the closet margin by which Mrs. Pressler has won any match. Collett in Trouble On the other hand, Miss Collett has played miserably in the initial holes of some of her matches in which she has defeated Maureen Orcutt, a three times American champion: Mrs. W. A. Johnson, Philadelphia; Mrs. Harley Higbie, Detroit, and Mrs. O. S. Hill, Kansas City, one of America’s five leading women players Mrs. Higbie had her four down at the fourteenth, but Glenna snapped out of it and won at the nineteenth hole. Friday, Mrs. Hill was two up on the champion at the end of nine holes, but Glenna squared the match at the twelfth, went ahead on the thirteenth, and, playing beautiful golf, never was headed before she won, 3 and 2. Four Record-holders Eighteen holes of the final match were to be played this morning and the final round this afternoon. A victory for Miss Collett will break a four-way tie for most titles won. Miss Collett, Mrs. Alexa Stirling Fraser, Ottawa, Canada; Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd, Philadelphia, and Maureen Orcott, New Jersey, have held the American title three times.

shaw get a slight nod over Root, Bush and Malone. Going into the series, the Cubs’ eight regulars, barring pitchers, will carry a little more than eight percentage points to the man better batting averages than the American League champions. As for fielding, the Cubs have the best double play combination over the championship season, having made 165 double plays—47 more than the Athletics. The Athletics three best pitchers have hung up more impressive records than the Cubs’ big three. Although they have worked in five less innings. Grove, Walberg and Earnshaw have won 61 games to 58 for their rivals. The Athletic group has struck out 398 batters to 288 for the Cub trio. Root. Bush and Malone have permitted 398 hits, 82 more than the Philadelphia trio. The Cubs have the better control, however, with 288 walks against 298 for Grove. Walberg and Earnshaw, the last named being the wildest of the lot with 122 walks against him in forty-three games.

Both teams fumbled frequently.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Cubs Seem to Have Edge Around Keystone, Rogers Being Ace on Pivot Play Rogers and English Form Great Double Play Combination, Ruth Points Out; Thinks Highly of Foxx Over Grimm and Praises Bishop. BY BABE RUTH NEW YORK, Oct. 5.—1 notice that most of the writers make much of defensive strength in a world series, emphasizing particularly the ability of the opposing players to make double plays. And I’m not denying the double-play is an important thing in baseball defense. Having men around second and short who can work together smoothly and well ;• the first and most important point in infield defense.

In Hornsby and English the Cubs, apparently, have a pair of wizards. I’ve never seen English perform, but the reports I get on nim are great. And I have seen Hornsby and I know that on the pivot 'play there are few if any men in the big leagues who can equal him. However, I want to leave just this idea. The mere fact the A’s won the pennant is proof that they are not weak on the play. The fact they made fewer doubleplays during the season than the Cubs doesn’t mean much. You know they may not have had so many opportunities. The Yankees, through three winning seasons, made comparatively few doub’e-plays, but if you look over the record you’ll find that their percentage of plays

Ruth

completed on opportunities offered was very high Foxx Good Fielder, Too When it comes to comparing the infielders individually there’s not much to choose. Jimmy Foxx, at first, certainly has an edge on Charley Grimm. Jimmy can do about everything that's asked of any ball player. I notice that some of the boys have been inclined to overlook his fielding in their admiration of his hitting. That’s natural enough, I guess. But I want to tell you that that kid is a good fielder, too. His fielding average shows it—and you must remember that during the season he has been handicapped somewhat by playing both at third base and first.

Hornsby a,t second, is, of course, a standout. There are few players In the league who can compare to the Rajah—but Max Bishop isn’t a setup by any means at that. There’s nothing spectacular about Max. He goes about his work quietly and without any fuss—but it’s a fact just the same that when a ball is hit down Max’s way he comes up with it. And that, after all, is about all that can be asked. Rogers Is the Goods Shortstop is a little weak on each club. English, I hear, is a whale of a fielder, but a somewhat weak hitter. Joe Boley is just an average ball player—neither exceptionally bad. Joe will never be a star, but he will always be dependable within his limits. And there’s this to be said for Boley. He doesn’t get excited, he doesn’t lose his nerve, and he isn’t upset by the strain of a tough game or a tough series. At third base Jimmy Dykes is superior to Norman McMillan. Jimmy is one of the best all-around ball players in either league and a mighty valuable man to his club. He can play anywhere on the infield and do a good job of it. With Jimmy at third the A’s have a distinct edge. Dykes Very Valuable If, however, the Athletics are forced to use Jimmy elsewhere and put Sammy Hale at third base then the edge is the other way. Sammy is one of those erratic ball players. He’s either very good or very bad. If he gets away to a good start, he’s almost unbeatable. But if he gets a couple of bad breaks then he’s likely to cause a lot of harm. AH of which, when it’s said and done, means that the Cubs and Athletics, considering their infields as a whole, are pretty well matched. There isn’t a lot to choose between them. There have been better infields in baseball than either club can boast—but there have been a lot worse ones, too. (Copyright. 1929, by The Times) '
