LHUL 1 DAYS

Pitching To Be Deciding Factor in Remaining Games of World's Series.

BV JACK VEIOCK (I. X. 5. Sporting Editor.) CT-EVELANT. ., Oct. 8. i With th-s rrival cf the Indians ami Djdi!-r here today t" continue the world's series battle begun in Brooklyn last Tuesday. Cleveland's temperature went S-ky high. Already a;o? with cscitcmnt over t.io first championship team and the f.r-t world's serifs it over has had the I". --rest City fairly throbbed with eni ' isiasm and expectation. The fact that the Indian? have t ome Vi. me f fiftht with their- hacks to th m all agatr.st R team that ha so far .i-.iven more than a match for them c1 traded nothing- from the interest of Forest City fans. The reserved seat sale for all four fjmfi scheduled here has kept the officials of the Cleveland club busy for days. As was the cape in Brooklyn there is not a reserved ticket of any kind to b had arid when all is said and don hundreds of fans will be disappointed. Ths rival world's series performers tot a chance to rest up t'day hut Manager Robinson planned to pilot the members of the Potlgers out to league park this afternoon and gi" them a ). trlil workout. The member? ot 1: dians scattered fo their various iKmes on arrival hero and about th" n!y practice the;.- will cei win hc "ull practice" v V it Managrr Speaker. Despite the. fact that the Dodger; have taken two cf the three game.? played to date and fiat i-'peaker's pitching staff has produced hut one Hurler who was able to turn hack the I'odgers, you can't t?! Cleveland fans that Uncle AYilbert's boys are gointr to he the next world's champion.3. The bugs here look to see the tribe do a come-back, even up the count by winning: tomorrow's game and then forge to the front. Speaker Is expected to send Coveleskle, bask at the I odg-ers tomorrow. The sptt-haller will have had three dsys rest by that time and. with the home crowd behind him ho should he wr of an enigma io the Robins than h was In tne first game . On Sunday Jim Baghy prohab'y will get his second chance to win a game from the National league champions. Bagby did not pitch his best brand of ball SLg-ainst the Dodger?! last Wednesday and he can be figured to give them a battle. After snootlrtar Covey and Bagby at Robby's boys, Speaker will have Walt Malls to fall back on and Mails figures to viv Brookln the stiff est kind cf an

ar:ju,iii-(n if his performance In the last game in Flatbtish can be. taken as an Indication of what his style of pitching- looks like to tho boys on Col. Kbbets payroll. In starting Kay Caldwell against Brooklyn yesterday Manager Speaii'r took a Ion chance. If Caldwell had been able to come through with a vn -;ory the Indians wauld have been on cayy Mieeu As it Is they have a bard Job cut out for them arid It looks now as though they wi'.l base to play some t:per -hast' bail. Manager Robinson has said all along t!at he intends to send Kube. Ylarnuard back against the Indians. Since .Sheriod Smith demonstrated that a southpaw can beat them it would not be surprising should the Kube get his itccnJ chance tomorrow. However. Boboy has another bet or t'.vo up his tlevo. He has oi to start Jack Fi'effer. who like Grimes, can go the roui.' and pitch well to the batsmen, no matter which side of the platter they svvitvJ'r om. Trior to the'start of the series a go o i :v.any of tho experts h.d it figured that the suposed superior team work uf the Indians and their greater hitting strength as indicated by the .30e average they piled up tais year, would stand out in the series. To date this bas been far from the case, for Brooklyn has f.elded and slugged the ball in fine fashion. Pitching, therefore. 1 bound to be the deciding: factor and much depends upon how Uobinson and Speaker handle thlr pitchers from now on and whether or not the hurlers who have scored victories will bo able to repeat. Hobby can afford to take a chance, hut there's nothing like that In Speaki i s case. If Tristram makes another Iosm-3 play as he did when, he sent Caldwell to the rubber, probably acting fin a mere hunch, there will be a world s championship banner fl Ing In Flatbush.

READY

FOR SOCK

Hammond's new professional football team will give fans their first opportunity to size it up next Sunday. The huskies will hare their initial workout against Rook Island on their .1 pp. in en ts' grounds. Season openers are generally rather tame affairs but !t will be different Sunday. Rock Island has two weeks' start of Hammond bavin? won wo frames already. Two weeks ago they defeated Molin?. 4S t and last Sunday they cleaned up on Muticle which has the old Pine Village ("am, 43 to nRock Island is stronger than ever before and Is simply wild to pet at Hammond. Hammond Is pretty much of an Interesting enigma to outsiders. l ew of the players of former years are in the lineup so the dopesters hardly know where to start until after the first p-ame. On paper the array Is formidable and those who have witnessed practice, work this week say that the outfit is just as formidable on the hoof.

Over two d..zcn stars from all parts of the country have been "'i the field at one tune ,r another hut the pruning knife has hacked h.-re an 5 there until the stilus now is even below the liiuij of eighteen which will be carried through the league season. Moran. the pianl center jf.Jhe University of St. I.ouis, holds th-- same berth on the Hammond lineup. Plankinghtm as guards are Skinner of Purdue and Pecrist of the Culvers t.y ot Pennsylvania,.' In tho tackle p.-sitlo-isi art Selllger of Hammond am Baahuw, ft professional. At r.ds will be found Johnson of Northwestern and Ki 11' y of Wisconsin. This is beloved to be the heaviest line ever -.placed in the Hold by a professional team. Kveey nian is u speed m-. reliant too. In the baektkbl svveri! cietru;. s will probably be mrde during the narr.e in order to try out different men. tlillo will shine at fullback a nd Meyers will probably start at .juarter. Brunswick and Talbott have temalive'y been aislrrtivd halfback positions. This leay. s Kohl and Roberts, two local favorites and I'.rown of the Michigan Agg-ies en the aide lines at the kick-off but they will probably Ret tr.to the fracas before the game progresses far. Sev ral other substitutes will be on tap. Generally speak Ins Manager VoanK is well satisfied wi'h his afcretjation. It is the best that the country afford. and he believes Rock Island will simply be the first stepping stone to copping the silver loving cup offered the lea true champions by Pres. Marshall ot Ihe Iirunswick-Iialke-Coliender C. The teem leaves for Rock Island Saturday evening. A number' of Hammond fans plan to accompany the team nnd many more w'.il nmlw o Rock Island on Sunday.
