SHE M wan VOU TO STAY CHPITAL GLAST Giants Await Reaction To Scandal Sensation On Taking Field. WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.— (By The Associated Press). —Baseball, in the throes of one of the most critical pages in its history, today faced a climax probably such as it has never known when the New York Giants, closing their ranks after the swift stroke of scandal, carried the National league's battle flag into the opening world’s series game with the Waghington Sena- tors, American league champions. ‘When Freddie Lindstrom, 18 year ola school boy, playing his first sea- son in the majors, steps to the plate to face Walter Johnson, 36 year old veteran, who started his career with ‘Washington in the year that Lind- strom was born, the situation will be typical of the contrast, and con- fusion, sympathy and treachery, ten- sion and dissension which has made the 1924 series hang heavy with By JOHN B. FOSTER. NEW YORK, Oct. 4.—This world series bids fair to bec drama of the infields. Infield light- ning will play around the bases all the time. There will be fiashes of it at third and second and streaks of {t at first and if the batting is heavy enough to stir the atmosphere, the shortstops will figure strikingly, too. There {s not much use to bother with the figure “dope” to learn any- thing about either infield. There ts not-one man in either Infield who has not proved his ability to go. But to try to compare these on a per- centage basis, so far as the world’s serles is concerned, is futile. All of them are topinotch—but any of them may run into a bad streak in a short series. Offhand, it seems fair to say that the infields of the Giants and the Washington stack up about evenly. Some will contend that the Giant in- field is better by virture of its great- er experience. Maybe that helps and maybe not. But of what avail is experience in a short series? The veriest tyro may jump in and play a whale of a game for a time while the old timer may fall down. ee Bh: BIGGEST GAME year's ome a pucks HOME @ w'tle ,NOw By LAWRENCE PERRY.

NEW YORK, Oct, 4.—The most important football game today is un- doubtedly the Pittsburgh-LaFayette game at Pittsburgh.

Last year Pittsburgh won 7 to 0 in a hard-fought game and LaFay- ette is determined to turn the tables this year. Both teams have lost good men by graduation, but each till has a nucleus of pretty good uality, with the odds on the home ground favoring Pittsburgh. ; Another game of intersectional importance will be the ill-shaken By NEA Airmail Servies-- ‘ Jack Dempséy, figlter and actor, has turned his attention to horse- racing now.
