Talking It over BY JOE WILLIAMS

CHICAGO. Oct. I.—They are saying that only a miracle can save the Cubs from defeat at the hands of the Yanks in the world series which swung into its third game here on the lake front today. When they start saying that, it practically is ended. The undertaker can’t be far away. Indeed, most of the boys are turning to other subjects for conversation, conspicuous among which is the Babe Ruth salary situation. It seems that there is always a Babe Ruth salary situation. When the series is the great slugger’s contract will have expired. He has been drawing down $75,000 for six months work. This is more monev than is paid the president of the United States. To some people there is nothing strange in this economic contrast, and to Ruth it Is perfectly sound and proper. •'Did Hoover ever hit a ball over the fence with three on-V He demands. I think the answer is no. What will Ruth pull down next vear? The Question is more interesting than usual bv reason of the report going the rounds that the Yankee management has derided to reduce his salary to $50,000. This Is still ouite a load of sugar, but it is not $75,000. Will Ruth stand for a $25,000 cut? Mavbe he will and mavbe he won t. There is the possibility, of course, that he will not be asked to. There Is nothing authentic as vet about the storv that his salary is to be reduced one third. But you can bet all the tea in China that his contract will not be renewed without substantial alterations. nan THE grim fact Is that Ruth is no longer the greatest player in baseball. Old Man Time has Anally caught up with him. He can still swing that big bat with magnificent effect, but that is all. You might say that is enough, but the critics seem to think otherwise, and what is more important, so does the management. You hear that the management might even be tempted to listen to a trade involving Ruth. I hope this isn’t true. Ruth, more than any other one person, made the American League in New York. For sentimental reasons—and because it is due him—Ruth should be permitted to finish his playing days in the big town. There are people in Boston who are flirting with Ruth to become identified with tiie Red Sox, the team with which he made his big league start. They want him to take over the club and manage it. Ruth is still a tremendous personality in Boston. The citizens would welcome him back with vast enthusiasm. Ruth wants to be a big league manager. For a time he had hopes of getting t he Yankee job. After the death of Miller Huggins, he campaigned actively for it. They tell me he was keenly disappointed when Joe McCarthy was brought in from the west and signed to a two-year contract. •'Why did they have to go to the National League for a manager? 1 ’ he roared. Ruth is farther away from the Yankee job now than he ever was. McCarthy has established himself as a successful leader. Within the next month or so he will be signed to anew contract, possibly for three years. He has sold himself thoroughly to Colonel Jake Ruppert and Edward Barrow. ff # IF Ruth ever manages a big league club, it will not be the Yankees, and I have my doubts that it will be the Red Sox. Ruth is a confirmed New Yorker now. He wouldn’t care much about living anywhere else. The missus is even moreemphatic against packing up and moving along, and Boston appeals to her none at all. So what? Well, did it ever occur to you that the National League might try to lure the Bambino into its fold? At the present moment, the National League is on the ropes in New York, due to the complete collapse of the Giants. When the Giants can not draw more than 300 cash customers to a ball game—any kind of a hall game—the outlook Is forbidding indeed. Would Ruth as manager put new life in the Giants? He couldnt’ miss. But the drawback is that Bill Terry has just signed a two-year contract to see what he can do about bringing the once great club back to the peaks of ita old glory. Ruth as manager of the Giants is an exciting idea, but it can’t mean anything for at least two years. AUSTIN GAINS FINALS By Times Special SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Oct. I. Fred Perry, British tennis star, batteled Jiro Satoh, the Japanese ace, in the semi-finals of the Pacific tennis tournament here today. The winner will take on Bunny Austin of England for the title Sunday. Austin gained the fiinals with a 6-4, 6-3, 2-6, 6-2 triumph over Ed Chandler, California ace, Friday.

liy United Press PEABODY, Mass., Oct. I.—For the third time in five years, Mrs. Glenna Collett Vare of Philadelphia and Virginia Van Wie of Chicago met today in the final 36-hole battle for the women’s national amateur golf championship.

YANKS WILL END SERIES IN CHICAGO, RUTH SAYS

A. L. Champs Hope to Make It Four in Row Loss of First Two Games Too Big a Handicap for Cubs, Writes Bambino; New York Also Holds Edge in Slab Strength. BY BABE RUTH CHICAGO. Oct. I.—l do not expect that the world series will see any more cf the Yankee stadium, and I am voicing the opinion of every other member of the Yankees when I say this. When the series started. I predicted that we would win in six games. Things have happened since to make me feel that the series will not go beyond five, and probably no more than four. Bo not let me appear to be bragging about what we will do. I base the opinion on the fact that the Chicago pitching is not likely to be as tough for us in the next two games as it has been in the first two, and we won both. We didn't hit Bush hard and we did not get anything bigger than a single off Warneke. That sort of hitting is below the usual Yankee standard. I expect to see the boys break out here with some long hitting, and I do not think that Root and Malone will bother us as much as Bush and Warneke did.

Then there is another reason. There is the handicap which those first two defeats imposes on the Cubs. Several times it has happened that a team won a series after dropping the first game, but it never has happened in a sevengame world series that a team lost the first two games and then was able to win. Look at it this way. Charley Grimm's team must beat us four out of the remaining five games to become world champions, and I don’t think they can do that. Remebers 1921 Setback I recall that the 1921 Yankees, of which I was a member, won the first two games and then lost the series. But that year we played a nine-game series, or until one team had won five games. The Giants beat us, five games to three. So you can see what a handicap the Cubs face because of those first two defeats. All our players are in fine trim and we still have plenty of highclass pitching ready to toss at the Cubs. George Pipgras will pitch the third game and I look for Johnny Allen for the next one. Both have pitched fine ball during September—in fact, Allen has been a steady winner since June, and he won seventeen during the season against four defeats. Reserve Hurlers Ready Then we have Herb Pennock, Danny MacFayden and Walter Brown as starting possibilities, or ready to jump in if a game begins to get away. Ruffing will be ready to start again in the fourth game, if neccessary. With all this reserve pitching at hand, I can’t figure how we can lose. I was sorry to hear today That Mark Koenig may not be able to play again. If we are to win we would rather beat the best team the Cubs can put on the field. I feel that the National Leaguers can not afford to lose as good a hitter as Mark. But that is one of the tough breaks of the game. Hopes for Four in Row I do not think we are handicapped to any extent by the fact that most of us never have played in Wrigley Field. Players frequently do very well on strange fields. Just remember what Pepper Martin did last year when the Cardinals were playing those three games at Shibe Park, and Pepper was an absolute stranger there. The idea that a player can not do well under such conditions is one of baseball’s myths which lives on and on though it is exploded hundreds of times every season. Yes, I must revise my first estimate of a victory in six games. Now I say five at most, with a chance of making it four straight. We sure would like to establish the record of three clean sweeps, and I know that Colonel Jacob Rupper, owner of our club, is anxious to see us do that.

By their victories in the semifinals at Salem country club Friday, Mrs. Vare and Miss Van Wie eliminated the final foreign threat to the championship and the “dark horse” of the tournament.

Miss Van Wie played almost perfect golf to score a 4 and 3 victory over Charlotte Glutting of South Orange, N. J.

To Make Sure, Chicago Fans Cheer Both Teams as Players Reach City

BY RAY BLACK United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Oct. I.—Caesar’s legions, home from conquering Gaul, got no more tumultuous welcome than the twice-vanquished Cubs, received Friday afternoon when their train pulled into the La Salle street station from the New York world series battle ground. The odd thing was that the same crowd cheered the victorious Yankees with just as much gusto when they arrived at the same station an hour later. “Don’t worry, we’ll beat ’em tomorrow,” the 5,000 men and women, boys and girls, brokers and ribbon clerks, red caps and scrub women, soda jerks and school girls shouted when Charlie Grimm, marshaled his Cubs to their automobiles.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Veteran Tackles Cheer N. D. Grid Stock

There are many football coaches who will tell you that the tackle positions are the most important on the team —and the hardest to fill with capable performers. In that case, Hunk Anderson, Notre Dame mentor, has little to worry about. Two husky speed boys, both of whom received all-America rating last year, are back tearing ’em up for the Irish.

“Nice going, Yanks! Atta boy, Ruth—how’s for a homer?” they greeted the surprised Yankees. Chicago takes its baseball that seriously. The cheers for the Cubs were cheers of hope and encouragement. The cheers for the Yankees were cheers of admiration. The players literally had to swim their way through a narrow lane of admirers who smiled and blew kisses or roared encouragement and slapped them on the back. “Hi, Steve, you old hoss.” “Atta boy, Eiki, old kid, old kid.” “Go get ’em, Gabby, we’re backing you.” So it went, down the roster. Whatever gloom the Cubs had brought along faded before it. They laughed, wise cracked with the crowd and shook hands right and left.

League that rolled on the Pritchett drives showed an odd game win for Gregory & Appel and Blue Goose over Indianapolis Life and New York Life. Crawford started with a mere 125, but found the range for 205 and 248 in his last two to lead this play with a total of 578. A 599 count by Dankert featured the Power and Light session at Pritchett’s. Harding street won two games from Third Floor, as Fourth Floor and Fifth Floor lost all three to Morris street and Mill street. The usual good scoring was missing from the Avalon League, Kott’s 618 being the only total over the 600 mark. Team play showed triple wins for Divots, Roughs and Putts from Irons, Traps and Stymies and a two-game win for Drivers from Caddies. K. of C. bowlers enjoyed their weekly series at the Delaware alleys. Tony McCann’s 608 series had better support than the 621 fired by the Rev. A. Fussenigger and Scott Trucking won two games. Pitt-man-Rice also won two from Quinn Grocery, as Penn Coal and Hoosier Optical took three from Dudley Insurance and Finneran Grocery. Quill’s 642 topped the field. City Candy continued to pound the pins in great style during the Recreation League plav on the Fountain Square alleys, games of 1,074, 1,040 and 1,001, giving them a total of 3.115 that was good for a triple wdn over Martin Truck. Mace was “dog” on this team with a score of 595. Dawson had 648; Lang, 629; Ward, 624, and Behrens, 619. After Prima Beverage took the roll-off of a tie from Bennies Barbers in the first game,, they were unbeatable, walking away with the final two in easy fashion. Jack Hunt had a great 684 with games of 203, 257 and 224 for the winners, while Landis helped with an even 600. Fall City Lager and Indianapolis Toilet, Apron Supply took two from OefteringLitzelman and Stahlhut Jewelry during the other contests in this loop. Mounts rolled 656 for Oeftering. while Ed Streibeck was posting a 611 total for Fall City’s Lager.

Friday Fight Results

AT BUFFALO —Out of the ring for about six years. Rocky Kansas, former lightweight champ'.on, tried a comeback as a welterweight here Friday in a six-rounder and easily was outpointed by Joe Trippe, hard-hitting Rochester scrapper. Kansas was knocked down twice and was punished badly. Trippe appeared content to let the veteran stay in the late rounds. AT PITTSBURGH—Joe Marcus. New York lightw'eight, lost on points to Battling Gizzv, Donora, Pa. It was a tenrounder. Major Hoople has hid S9OO so well even he can’t find it! If you’re better than he is, you might lend a hand. He’s on the Comic Page.

Broad Ripple scored in every period to chalk up a 26-to-0 decision over Plainfield Friday. Murbarger again led the Ripple attack and scored two touchdowns. Stokes, Ripple center, may be out for the rest of the season with a shoulder injury received late in the game. A sensational last quarter rally enabled Marion’s Giants to‘gain a 13-to-13 tie with Washington. Brilliant running and passing by Hop Howard and Cherry gave the Continentals two touchdowns in the first quarter, Cherry adding the extra point with a plunge. Mills led the Marion attack, scoring one first touchdown on a line smash and accounting for the' second with a pass to Bruner. H. Perkins tossed to Weaver for the tying extra point. Tech and Bloomington battled to a scoreless draw in a thrilling tussle at the easi side field. Late in the game, Cook dashed thirty-eight yards and three short passes put Bloomington La scoring position, but Tech held. Mascarachia was the chief ground-gainer for Tech, with Johnson starring in the line.

Joe Kurth

Charlie said he had never seen anything like it. “I was telling the boys on the train that there wouldn't be a soul at the station. When I saw this crowd I couldn’t believe it for a moment.” Joe E. Brown, the comedian, who takes to baseball like a catcher’s mitt to a fast ball, came in with the team. The crowd spotted him and gave him a big hand, too. He formerly played minor league ball. Asked what he thought about the series, Brown said it was all a matter of psychology. “If you think you're behind, you are behind,” he said. “It’s all a question of mind over matter. And after looking at that game Thursday I don’t think anything matters.”
