November At General Election Citizens are to have an opportun- ity this evening to let the City Char- |te? Commission know their opinion regarding further action on a new city charter. ‘The commission meets at the rooms of the Civic and Com- merce association at 8 o’clock and | upon the interest shown by the public iin general will depend largely whether or not the charter commission con- |'tinues its activities or ceases to func- tion for the present. There is some agitation that a new proposed city charter be submitted to the voters at the coming general election November 7, at which time it is felt that a representat: vote would be cast. The mass meeting this evening will determine largely whether or not the commission shall prepare such a proposed charter to be put to a vote at that time. Since it is felt that the last pro- posed city charter was lost because of insufficient interest and voting, ev- en on the part of those really in favor of the proposed changes, it is believed that the vote at the general election would express desires of the | majority of the residents of the city-.

Beat- en only as two teams have been beaten in previous world series, the New York Yankees have only one title—American League champlons— and that by a shade of one game. Back in 1907, the Detroit Tigers Jost to the Chicago Cubs without winning a game. Ja 1914, the Phil- adelphia Athletics dropped four straight games to tue Boston Braves and this year the best the Yankees could get from the Giants was onc tie game, in which the same punch in the pinch that has brought them rom behind in other games, enabled the Giants to take the last game, 5 to 38, as it seemed certain that the Yan- kees had broken the spell that hung around them.

It was a.blow by George Kelly, the |long first baseman of the Giants thag drove.in two.runs and won. the game, and it was a blunder in the minds of many on the part of Man- ager Huggins that made it possible | for Kelly to give this crack at the ball.

FARRELL SAYS YANKEES WERE NOT GAME ENOUGH Reversal [of Form Shown by Yanks Most in Years and Years Surprising (By United Press) (By Henry L.

In the pinches, they got all the breaks, but tHere is an old axiom that a winning club makes its own breaks. The Yankees were beaten because they ran the b worse than a bunch of semi-pros; because they played ‘stupid ball and rushed head- i} long into some of the old-traps known to bascball; but principally because they were not game enough to fight while the tide was going against them. Before the s the crit to get his joke enough to win the series the greatest manager baseball ever had. . It looks as if he is. The reversal of form shown by the Yankees has been the most surprising in years and year: Before the series started, many thought that continued losses and the way they played can be erplained only by the difference in the two dug outs. Because the series went off in five games and for the resson that the receipts of the second game went to charity, the owners of the two clubs will probably lose money on the ser- jes. They certainly can‘t make much with only $41,000 going to cach club, because their entertainment bill for last ycar's series was $50,000 each. The total receipts for the series, ex- cluding the money taken in for the second game, were $484,921. The players got $247,309, the club owners only got $82,436, and $72,738 went to the advisory council. The Giant players-will probably get $5,000 each and the Yankees will probably et $3,500. It is not kmown exactly how I they will divide the money. D‘ Prizes Totaling $35,130 to be Awarded Various Breeds at .
