The win was the second victory in the present series for Gomez and his fifth in world series competition, equalling the records of Herb Pen-! nock and Jack Coombs.

The Duke personally went to the “stock plant” where he inspected the training school for young work- ers and the sanitary devices. He was serenaded by the workers’ orches- tra.

He had equalled the record for five victories in world series. This record was held previously by Herb Pennock and Jack Coombs. Now‘ how many of you fans can remember Pennock and Coombs? Moul(ler of Champions Here is Joe McCarthy who has led the Yankees to three league pen« nants in his seven-year managerial regime. In 1932 he saw his team vanquish the Chicago Cubs in four straight, in 1936 he saw his second championship at the Giants’ expense and this year he sees his Yankees taking four of five games also from the Giants. 2 York Central 21, Southern Pacific | |24%, United States Steel 66, Pound 4 $495%, Republic Steel 19* | STOCK QUOTATIONS NEW YORK, Oct. 11. — Closing quotation of Alaska Juneau mine stock today is 11, American Can 95, DOW, JONES ‘AVERAGES The following are today's Jones averages: industrials rails 25.40, umlues 21.8. - Dow, 138.79, conda 31%, Calumet 9%, Southern 17 Bethlehem Steel 56%, Commonwealth and| With the is2% semsus the for- Curtiss Wright 37%, |eign-born population of the United 14,000,- Kennecott 39, Harvester 82, New | 000, [FIGHTING HAS AGAIN STARTED | SHANGHAI AREA Forces of BESides Crawl Out of Their Mud- dy Burrows DRASTIC ECONOMIC LAW HITS JAPANESE | Government Places Nation Today on Stern Spar- tan Frugality SHANGHAI, Oct. 11.—The Chin- |ese and Japanese soldiers today | crawled out of their muddy burrows | along the 25-mile front northwest of here and resumed the almost two months’ old battle for Shanghai's ' smouldering ruins.

They reported it appeared he had the barrel of a 30.06 rifle be- tween his eyes and blown off the top of his head with a hollow-nosed bullet. Coroner C. W.
