Doughs had tho slugging Ituth at his mercy after the fourth inning, striking the babo out twice, amid cheers of npplauiM from the Oiant rooters. Douglas left tho game in tho eighth Inning when Earl Smith, pinch hlitter, went to bat for him and filed but to Iluth. Barnes pitched the iiinth inning for the Giants and was clouted for two hits. In thw field Ituth played well, getting four of the five outfield putguts. In the third Inning ho gave hl3 admirers a heart pang when he caught Douglas fly and let It bounce Cut of his hands. He managed to recover tho ba'.l, however, before it could fall to tho ground. He was Cheered every time he came to the plAte and every time ho caught a fly. FrUrh ilant Star.

As a whole the OLonta played a heady, consistent game, except that the usually reliable uancroii i short was a little unsteady af times although at no instanco to the detriment of his team.

One of the surprising things about the fame was the fact that while the Polo grounds will accommodato nearly 33,000 persons the official attendance, figures showed but 30,203 persons present. The upper grandstand, to which amlion could only be obtained by purchase of tickets at the gater after they were opened, showed large stretches of empty eeata at tho extremes of the stand. This was easily accounted for however, when it became known that the police orders to keep non-ticket holders from the vicinity of tho flel! after one p. m. had been strictly enforced, with the result that thousands of late comers, who might readily have been accommodated.
were kf?pt beyond the reach of the , box ofTlces. As for the tamper of the crowd. It was remarked that Home deprree of tho enthusiasm witnessed at most world series conterts teemed lacking. Thero was a steady enough explanation of this, too, when it was recalled that this crowd was or. divided against itself, with probably Fomethlng like a 50-30 split between Giant and Yankee ro'oters. From this It need not be taken that the usual roaring outbursts of gleeful fans were not In evidence when things took favorable turns for one side or tho other but simply that at no time did tanda and bleachers ariao aa ono man to shout the shout of the Joyful. Something like half the crowd did not feel much like shouting. For ajrother thing and possibry this was the moro compelling reason tho pamo lacked really tentie situations. It was close throughout, but tho Yankees, as tho score shows, took an early lead and not only were they never headed, but never was there a chance on the part of tho Giant rooters to cheer a possible tied Fcore or a successful rally. Tho Yankee rooters made plenty of noise when tho gama was ended spectacuIjdy by a flashing double play with Pecklnpaugh and Ward as the leading figures. The Giant fans had held hope of a scoro up to this point, for Frisch got a clean single to etart tho Inning and visions of a rally were indulged In. Frisch, however, was forced by Young and then Kelly's hit to Pecklnpaugh was tossed by him toward forcing Young. Ward then wheeling and throwln g to first, getting the batter and ending tne game. The only other double Pi' of the afternoon was mado by the Giants In the first Inning. There was one out when Pob Meusel forced Ruth at second, Fri3ch to Ilawllngs. and was himself thrown out at llrst. Giant Outleldcm Not Ilusy. An odd incident of the game was that not a Giant outfielder made a putout. With an attendance of 30,203, the official announcement gave the gate receipts as $103,9f5, a new record. Of this, the players funds pet $53.022.15, the two clubs a total of S35.34S.10, and the National commission $13,594.75. Tho only other casn of the gpa-te receipts at a world series running over $100,000 was the sixth gam-e of the Cincinnati-Chicago series in 1919, when the receipts were $101,7GS. Borne 400 and odd newspapermen gathered to report the series, said to be the largest number ver asem"bied for this purpo. The great majority came from the eastern section New York New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut and Maachusetts being the most heavily represented. LOUISVILLE WINS

There was no AY about Carl's pitching yesterday, was there? Shufilin Phil did a little scraping' and got filed away from his first game. in HO HUM One of the Giant rooters made tho crack that the Huggins supporters were as stuck up lest night as a bunch of babies working in a paste factory. They ought to be, though, 'cause their team did all the pasting yesterday. HI HO HOI Well. McGraw is tuning up Toney to render Ms selection against the Yankees today and if it's a warm afternoon we ought to hear a lot of mellow mufic, a3 the former Red heaver does well when the sun's shining on his wing. in no HX7M If Toney was only a "narp" his music sure would be pleasant to the ears of a lot of New York policemen. HI HO HUM Talking about music, tho Singer's didn't do as well against Doule Wolfe's All Star basseball team a the Warsaw nine. The music sheet of the barn-yard golf fans must have been harder to play. HI HO HUM Harvard college has drummed up an orchestra to play at the football games in the hopes of .building up the sport enthusiasm of the Institution. There's a good chance for some university to train their track team if they get a .bunch of musicians and let the runners practice trying to beat the band. in HO HUM Jumbo Stelhm Is chaperoning the Indiana eleven on their trip to Cambridge for their battle with Harvard Saturday. They're going to get an awful beating if any of their advance men have bungled in securing Harvard's signals. 'Member, one of them forgot to tell Jumbo about that play of Notre Dame's that started when Brandy threw down his head guard? That Iort the game for 'em and spoiled the only chance they'll ever have to beat the "fighting Rockers." in HO HUM Hector Oarvey says he'll have Slater doing his washing for him before he's through making himself acquainted with the Iowa tackle. Our laundry bill on our one shirt runs rather high and we wish the "little fellow" could fix It up for us while he's at it. HI HO HUM Seats in the Oliver lobby are going to be in such a great demand theco cold afternoons that House Detective Sweeney is trying to dope out a reservation plan. Be tough, though, if any of the guys got their reservations mixed. in II O HUM Thoso birds that started writing the historical events of Jawn McOraw's life had better wait, a Babe Ruth says he has something to add to it.

World feries marvelous, glorious, wonderful! Stands full of rooters whose voices are thunderful; Thousand who wait at the gate, very longingly. Thousands more gathering, thickly and throngingly; Blare of the bands and a roar of humanity. Atmosphere throbbing with baseball insanity. Cans parked for miles and police by the myriad Yes. we are in for a lunatic period. World series cameras clicking repeatedly. Umpires and p'.ayers all posing unheatedly. Smiling and shaking hands coolly and pleasantly (They'll be behaving much different, presently); Stilled for a moment the sound of the chatter Is, Now they are loudly announcing the batteriee then from an ump comes the magical call. Bellowed in basso profundo "P:ay bawl'." World series over the nation's immensity Fans are awaiting the news with intensity: Scanning the bulletins nervously, worriedly; Grabbing the extras, perusing them hurriedly; Yet this excitement, tremendous and furious. Seems to the sober mind Just a bit curious. Why should a nation grow purple and hectical Over what's only a highly-'paid spectacle? Why shouid it thrill all the bleachers and galleriea .lust to watch players increasing their salaries? Why? I dunno. but It dees and the best of us Find they are crary ae all of the ret of us; Rooting and yelling and shrieking somehow, "Oh you world series we're all loony now."

Dick Kerr was a better pitcher than Grover Alexander today, and the Chicago Americans shut out the Chicago National?;. 2 to 0. in the first game oi the. series to decide the city chajnpionship. It was tho finst meeting cf tht two clubs since 191t. Kerr allowed his opponents only five scattered hits, three of which were made by Harber, while the National league's ace was touched for 10, most of which were bunched. The attendance was announced as 16,543, and the gro-ss receipts $14.365.14. The commissioners' share was $2.164.77 and the players' ehare $7,326. 22. The clubs' share, which is to be divided equally at the end of the series, totalled $4,SS4.15.

"Hurry up" Header did most of the starring for the second string men and displayed much ability at breaking through the line and tackles. The local mentor has expressed regret that "Hurry up" is ineligible as he could undoubtedly win a place on the varsity. Poor work slips were issued from the principals' otllce yesterday and of the 500 and some which were issued none of tho aspirants were affected.
