By HENRY L. FARRELL NEW YORK, Dec. 22.—(United Press.)—Arrival of the predicted and patiently awaited ‘mi Jar” world’s series was, without doubt, the big event of 1923 in base: ball. * Records for attendance and re- ceipts at the post-season battles be- tween the major league pennant winners were made possible by the opening of the two million dollar Yankee stadium, another event of record for the yéar. With a capacity of 70,000 and a plan of construction which will per- mit its extension so that it will accommodate 100,000 when the need requires, the Yankee stadium is the finest baseball structure in the world, Another victory by the New York Giants and the ¥ankees in the pennant races and their subsequent participation in the world's series removed novel features for the sea- son, although the two teams made a new record by staging the series between themselves for the third successive time. Considering that the Giants were almost unanimously picked to beat the Yankees in the series, the feat of the American league champions in winning the world’s champion ship might have been a surprise. The success of the Yankees al: made a new record in that it was the first time that the world’s cham- pionship had been won by a New York American league team. Many new minor records were made on the playing field during the minor and major league sea- song, but sensational performances, such as were provided when Babe Ruth was running wild sever! years ago, were missing. Babe Ruth did not ‘make a new slugging record, but the all-arount improvement of baseball's greatest player perhaps the biggest fea ture of the season and aroused the most interest. Ruth lived up to his promise to settle down and play baseball. He came within ten points of taking the batting championship of the American league from Harry Heil- man, the Detroit star. He finished in a tie for first place in batting ‘n runs. He made a new record for the number of passes received dur- ing a season. He was third in base Tunning, and he was the best right fielder in the league. To make his comeback all the more glorious, the Babe had the honor of being named the mpst valuable player in the American league by the largest vote possible. His selection was unanimous. It was Ruth's willingness to sub- drdinate his own interests to those of the team that was largely re- sponsible for the victory of the Yankees in the American league pennant race and in the world’s series. skies ; | One of the biggest disappoint- ments of the season resulted from the disability which made it neces- sary for George Sisler, the “perfe: ball player,” to remain out of the game all season, { Disabled with eye trouble, Sisler| could not even get into a uniform | and he didn't make an attempt o| play all season.

Jimmy O'Connell, the’ $75,000 out- fielder, was a_ big, disappointment with the Giants. O'Connell, how- ever, was not well all season and there is every reason to believe that he will come through eventually, The National league ran almost exactly according to form and the teams finished in precisely the same positions that the experts predicted before the seasbn started. The Chicago White Sox were a big disappointment in the American league and the Cleveland Indiaas turned out to be the big surprise of the year. The Detroit Tiers started poorly, but th finishe strong and landed in second place The Philadelphia Athigtics Jo fine up to mid-season, but the bumps from there to the etirement of Kid Gleason as t manager of the White Sox and the release of Donie Bush as. manager of the Washington Senators af he had landed the team in the fi division caused the greatest sur- prise. The purchase of the Boston Red Sox by a syndicate, with Bobby Quinn, former business manager of the Browns, as president, and the sale of the Boston Braves to a syn- dicate headed by Christy Mathewsoa were also events of importance. te S = 2 S s Totals - To Feature Next Elks’ Event.
