By Joe Williams These Giants Are Going to Win Series m m m Mr. Terry’s Boys Get All the Breaks m m 9 Blondy Ryan Is the N. Y. Luck-Piece

N EW YORK, Sept. 19.—1 t should not be at all surprising to the seven hundred million people who follow this column daily for guidance in matters pertaining to the more vital phases of life that I am picking the Giants to win the world series. I am one of the astute gentlemen of the press who said at the beginning of the season that the Giants would be very lucky to do as well as they had done last year—which was to finish in a most disconsolate tie for sixth place, conceding, of course, that they got the breaks. So, in line with what I habitually use for logic, it is only natural for me to select a team that should have finished far back in the second division to beat the Washingtons in the playoffs. I mean try to add it up and what have you got. Not even a round trip to Wheeling. Nevertheless, notwithstanding—and how are you, Mike?—l think that in this topsy-turvy era of sports, in which the upset is pre-eminently the set up, Mr Bill Terry's Giants are going to make the season's weird record complete by overthrowing the American League. a a a a a a MR. TERRY'S Giants will need a break or two. to be sure. For some years I have been convinced that the American League is much stronger than the National League. This is by no means a startling attitude. The record speaks for itself. You do not win these things In straight sets year after year without intrinsic power and Ruth. I am picking Mr Terry’s Giants because they seem to have formed a fascinating alliance with the gods, whoever they are. In all sorts of situations they manage to come out on top. An axiom of the gambling room is “press your luck ” I have a suspicion that Mr. Terry is going to press his luck in the series wtih satisfactory results. More than one world series has been won on luck. The last time the Giants were in a world series they lost on bad luck, and singularly it was against the Washingtons. Hank Gowdy, trying for a foul, stepped into his mask and missed an otherwise easp putout. A few moments later a simple bounder hit a pebble and bounded over the head of the Giants’ third baseman. Out of these two unique incidents a championship was fashioned. , You are not supposed to try to figure that kind of baseball. I hesitate to bring mysticism to reporting, but there are times when you can not escape the belief that it exists, that there is some infinite magic which has predetermined the result in the face of what Daniel, Fullerton and Lieb predict. a a a a a a AS a material justification of this theory may I single out one of Mr. Terry's regulars, a young man who is known to the public as Blondy Ryan the Giants’ shortstop. I have just looked up his batting average. He is batting .232. Any child wil ltell you .232 is a very underfed, anemic batting average for a regular on a championship team. But there it is. And yet to me that is not important. Other teams have gone into the series with .232 hitters, and less. But this Blondy Ryan happens to be a luck-piece, a sort of symbol of the team's current position in baseball. The Giants can’t win without him. Very definitely he has been the spark plug of the ball club. When he was injured and out of the game the Giants lost seven straight. When he w-as ready to return he sent a wire to Mr. Terry which read, in effect: “I’m on my way. They can’t beat us.” As soon as Blondy Ryan, the weakest hitter on the team, joined up again, the Giants started to win, and they didn't stop until they had clinched the championship. Don’t tell me Mr. Terry hasn't an assistant up on Mt. Olympus—probably some cagey old gaffer that the scouts neglected to tell the newspaper men anything about.

Skull Practice Included on Butler Grid Drill Program

A daily brain session in Coach Fritz Mackey’s private classroom is in store for Butler's Bulldogs the remainder of this week in preparation for the opening tilt with Franklin here Friday night. Skull practice will be followed by an hour of hard work, putting the paper knowledge into practice. Scrimmages during the last week have revealed spots in the Butler machine that need undivided attention. Drill will be centered on the aerial attack first. Although passing arms are functioning as well as could be expected, the receiving end 'thus far has been unable to locate the spot where passes are to drop. A little more drive will be developed this week before line plays are at-

Giants, Nats Fail to Clinch League Flags New York Still Needs One Victory While Senators Are Two Short; St. Louis Cardinals Rap N. L. Leaders, Browns Turn Back Senators. BY STUART CAMERON United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Sept. 19.—With the major league pennants conceded to the New York Giants and Washington Senators, the question that intrigued the baseball world today was: Which team will clinch its flag first? And after Monday's competition that saw both nines defeated, the question might just as easily be: Which team will lose themselves into the world series? The Giants now need only one 'Victory to clinch the National League pennant; the Senators need two to give them the American League banner. Monday each needed one •more victory, but their gracious secondplace rivals handed them a game apiece. The Giants picked up their contest when the Pittsburgh Pirates lost the second game of a doubleheader to the Philadelphia Phillies; the Senators when the Yanks dropped a similar contest to the Chicago White Sox.

Sam Jones, aefused by the Senators in a deal recently, held Washington at his mercy. Boston’s Red Sox banged at the air as they were set down with two hits by Oral Hildebrand of the Cleveland Indians. The score was 9 to 0. Johnny Allen of the Yankees hurled a two-hit game as the New Yorkers trimmed the White Sox, 6 to 1. In the second game, the Sox were victorious, 4 to 3, with Rookie Tieje winning his first big league start.
