REDSOX ANDPHILLIES EVEN AS TO INFIELDS Batting and Slugging Average of Two Teams Nearly Even; Stars to Be Reckoned With. By George R. Holmes. (United Press Staff Correspondent) New York, Oct. 4.—All things considered, the Red Sox and Phillies | § will go into the coming world’s clash about even as to infields. Fred Lu- derus’ terrific hitting is somewhat offset by the superior fielding ability and all around finish of Jack Barry, and so far as the rest of the inmer works are concerned, it appears to be about a draw—judging solely from the way ability is reckoned in cold figures, * No Difference in Infield. There is no difference worth speak- ing of in the combined batting and fielding averages of the two infields. ‘Both have been slugging the ball around a .260 gait, and the two field- ing averages hover around close to .960. Comparisons, however, are held to be somewhat odious ever since | & the late lamented Braves walloped Cornelius McGillicuddy’s $100,000 infield and priceless pitching staff. Always a Star, There always is one thing that trips up the dope, and literally spills the beans. It can’t be reckoned on, because there are no figures on it. It’s the child of the heated moment— | & the totally unlooked for individual star that crops out in every world’s series. Once ’'pon a time it was Frank Baker. Then Joe Bush came along, and last year it was long, lean Hank Gowdy, whom fate had buffeted | § around the baseball world for a long | § time. Gowdy Slugged .545. Gowdy, on dope, didn’t stand a chance with the incomparable Wallie Schang this time last year. There were few places outside Boston's classic boundaries where the name would have been recognized on the street. But after the series even the music of the cats on the backyard fences was suspiciously drawled into the semblance of the lanky catcher’s monaker. Hank had dubbed along all summer hitting around .240. Yet when the big test came it found him slugging .545 under the most su- premely difficult conditions possible. Shoe Sale Continues The throngs which packed our store Fri=- day and Saturday carried away several hun- dred pairs of the shoes which we had advertis- ed to be sold at one dollar a pair. As adver- tised last last week we are selling one thou- sand pairs of men’s and women’s shoes at one dollar a pair. It was impossible to get the entire lot on the tables we had arranged in the back room of the store, at one time, and on Tuesday Morning will take out a new assortment to fill up the tables so that those who were unable to get a fit last week, may be able to find something that will suit them if they will come in after Tueseay morning. Will put out something new each morning the rest of the week. Just walk through the store into the back room, and you may take your choice of any pair of shoes you find in that room at One Dollar A Pair Please bear in mind that these shoes we are offering at one dollar a pair are not a cheaply constructed lot of shoes, with paper soles or anything of that kind, but good welt shoes, solid leather and made by such companies as the Sorosis, Hanon and other companies that make nothing but high grade shoes.

Gabby is reported ‘to have the fence distanced properly and is liable to stick one over in the grass any time. In a close battle, with a man on, that would just about wreck somebody’s championship hopes.

It looks like 'a remote factor be- fore the series, but it would certain- ly assume elephantine proportions if it ever happened.

FRED CLARKE, PIRATE LEADER, TO BE BANQUETED Pittsburgh, Oct. 4.—Fred Clarke, for sixteen years the pilot of the Pittsburgh Pirates, will be tendersd tonight one of the finest tributes that has ever been given to any ball- player. The Stove League has ar- ranged a farewell banquet in his honor which will be the largest ever held in the Smokey City. It will be Pittsburgh’s tribute to the retir- ing manager. Some of the biggest men in the baseball world have prom- ised to be on hand and the applica- tion for places poured in so fast that the committee was compelled to limit the covers to five hundred. The com- mittee has kept its plans as to the gift that is to be presented to Clarke a profound secret. Clarke came to Pittsburgh in 1900 and has directed the Pirates since that time. He has one of the finest records in baseball, having won four pennants and one world’s champion- ship. As a player Clarke ranked with the best. In twenty-two years in the big league he has a batting average of .325. Clarke was essen- tially a player-manager and since he stopped playing himself in 1911 it has been a rather hard struggle for him. It has always been hard for him to sit on the bench. e BEMIDIJI BUSINESS DIRECTORY CLASSIFIED ALPHABETICALLY ABSTRACTS OF TITLE MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS SATHRE ABSTRACT CO. ABSTRACTER Schroeder Bldg.
