Rookie Shores Will Fill Relief Roles Well By BILLY EVANS Who will win the 1929 world series? Ask me something easy. Picking pennant winners and world doubt, ask my old friend Hughey Fullerton. This spring, writing for a well- known weekly Fullerton named Washington as the pennant winner in the American League and picked | Cleveland to finish last. Two months ago, if some one asked me which team would win a seven- game series between the Cubs and the Athletics, I would have said “the with much_positiveness. Today, the question arouses mingled feelings of uncertainty. Connie Mack is one of the best friends I/have in baseball. And since the Athletics are a member of the same league with which I am identi- fied, naturally I lean strongly to Mack and the A's when the outcome of the series is discussed. Yet in summing up the chances of the two clubs, I am going to do my very best not to let partisan feelings sway my judgment. * * Unless Mack is able to perform miracles in reconditioning some of his athletes, I cannot see how he will be able to present as strong a lineup against the Cubs as would have been possible two months ago. At that time, his pitching staff was in high gear and his team in fine shape physically. Since then, the club has suffered through illness and injuries. Joc Boley and Jimmy Dykes, two highly capable infield performers, have been ailing. The standard of their play has suffered. The infield defense of the A’s may show it. Then the case of “Lefty” Grove calls for serious consideration. Grove, two months ago, was at the very peak of his game. During the final two months of the campaign he has been away below par. Perhaps it is just one of those things that happen in baseball, the pitcher having plenty of ing edge through being overworked. Probably proper rest prior to the se- ries may restore that edge. Considering the Athletics from every angle, the club does not impress me as strongly on the eve of the se: ries as it did six er eight weeks back, when it was running wild at the ex- pense of the rest of the American League. ** * Along the same lines, I might say that the play of the Cubs during the final month of the season was not nearly so impressive as earlier during the race. The pitching of the Cubs has slumped. Bush, the ace of the Cubs’ staff, like Grove, the big noise {of the Mackmen, is the gost serious offender in this respect. Bush has jbeen shelled from the box in nearly every appearance he made in the ome stretch. I am sure both Mack and McCarthy have been much wor- ried about the ineffectiveness of their i and halving ' geez, I favor the Athletics to win the Highie. Detroit. who world series.

I have always been a great admirer of Root. Liked when he was a “busher,” trying to make the grade with the St. Louis Browns. He has the stuff and he is smart. Then there is Blake and Carl- son as well as Nehf and Cvengros. ed ‘There may be necessity for good relief pitching in the series. If so, the Athletics have plenty to offer. There is Eddie Rommel, knuckle ball artist and a tough pitcher for a club looking at him for the first time; Jack Quinn of spitball fame, and the rookie Shores, who has done some great rescue work for the Mackmen this season. Three things will decide the 1929 world series—pitching. the breaks and courage. I like the Athletics’ pitch- sible to gauge courage before the real test. It will be two green teams in the series and one or both may breek under the strain. I favor the Athletics to win and look for the series to go six or seven games. However, like my very good friend, Hughey Fullerton, I may be as wrong as when he picked Wash- ington to win the American League pennant and Cleveland to finish last. If so, there is no harm done, just an- other so-called expert gone wrong.

D., Oct. 3.—With the Savages’ first game of a heavy football schedule the sixth day aft- fer the fall term opening, Coach Wienberger of Dickinson State N {mal has little hope for a clean this season, In_ signing up a heavy schedule the Savage coach anticipated not so rauch his winning chances as the op- portunity for education of’ his lads by taking on college teams with high hopes of winning some games by fortunate breaks of the game and hard work by his admittedly green charges. The Savages leave here Friday for the opening game of their grid schedule. It is against the Ellendale normal, there, Saturday. Next on the schedule is the Home- coming game with the Minot State Teachers College here Oct. 12. Jamestown College will meet the Savages here, Oct. 19. Dickinson plays Mayville Teachers College, there, Oct. The/ Savages meet last sex 's collegiate champions of South Dako- ta, Spearfish State Teachers College, at Spearfish, Nov, 2.

The kcwever, can point to the f: at last year, their first try at college football, they lost to Jamestown by the close score of 6 to 8 at the Home- coming Day game here. Four Savage lettermen are back, including Earl Rundle, New Eng- land, upon whom Weinberger de- pends for a lot of stuff this season. Besides Rundle there are Fitzloff, Dickinson, center; Rex Campbell, Peach, a tackle last year; and Her- nun Jaeger, Hebron, who played guard. Several last season second string men are in for a whirl at col- Icgiate play in Heaton, quartcrpack; Harsch, guard; Grotimeyer, guard; Koffier, halfback; Homelvig, cen- ter; and John Campbell, tackl New men out so far are and Foss, both from Glendive high school and of good high school ex- verience. They are small but now are being worked at quarter and if. From Dickinson high school, Wienbergen has Lohmbaken, guard; Eckes, halfback; Kanan, guard. Bill Parkins, a big boy from New England without an iota of experi- ence, is expected to make a fullback. He is booting the oval now a good 50 yards and shows up well. Another fullback promise is Smith, a husky youth, who came in from New Eng- land with Rundle. He has had high school experience in eastern states. Then there is Rose and Bantley, Dickinson; Dickerson, Carrington; Ruffler, Hebron; Banke, from Min- nesota; Holter, Regent; L. Anderson ard Aird. Practically 70 per cent of the male students eligible to the college game are listed among Wienbergen’s pros- pects with only four experienced in college play. He expects his line to bear up well after a couple. of weeks but his becks and ends are very light unless the big boys prove out at full and raise the average. For the Normal high school team, Wienbergen has among the pros- pects: Volt, Miner, Homelvig, Aird, Corbet, Fulton, Slaathaug, end Stockert. By WILLIAM J.
