YANKEES HUGGINS ATHLETES EARN WORLD TITLE WITH THIRD STRAIGHT WIN IN SERIES POLO GROUNDS, New York, October 15.—Miller Huggins’ Yankees today added to their American League laurels the world base ball championship by defeating John McGraw's Giants, National League pennant winners, for the third successive time in the big series. 3 1t was the fourth victory for the Yankees in six games played. Southpaw pitchers were selected by both managers to start the game, Herb Pennock slabbing for the Yanks and Art Nehf for the Giants. When play began there were many vacant seats in the stands, a drizzle keeping the attendance down. Rain was falling when Whitey Witt, the Yankees’ lead-off man, took his place at the plate. PITCHERS ARE CHANGED. ' Neither of the starting pitchers lasted through the game, Pennock giving way to a pinch batter when the Yankees chased Nehf in the hectic eighth inning. In this -frame, after Ward popped to Kelly, Schang and Scott singled and Hofmann, bat- ting for Pennock, walked, filling the bases. Haines went in to run for Hofmann and Bush batted for Witt. 3 Nehf bec#me wild and passed Bush, forcing in Schang. Johnson ran for Bush and McGraw substituted Rosy Ryan for Nehf. Dugan drew a walk, forcing Scott home. ~ With Ruth at bat it looked bright for the -Yanks, but the King of Swat fanned. Bob Mecusel, however, was no victim of Ryan’s wiles. Bob poled a single to center, tallying Haines and §ohnson, and Dugan got to the plate when Cunningham made a wild heave over the in- field. Pipp was an easy out, but the Yanks had chased five runs across the pan to give them a healthy lead. s Neither club waited long to score. With Witt and Dugan out of the way in the Yankees’ first round Babe Buth slammed the ball into the upper right field stands for a trip areund the circuit. The Giants, in their portion of the frame, came right back at their rivals, successive singles by Groh, Frisch and Young accounting for a tally. % Nehf and Pennock then braced, but the latter did not keép in good pitching form very long. In the fourth frame the Giants hopped into tlie lead*when Frisch beat out a bunt, took second on Young’s retirement and scored as Cunningham singled to right. The fifth frame saw another Giant cross the plate, Snyder turning the track after knocking the ball into the-leit-field stands. Witt, cf Dugan, 3b Ruth, rf... R.

But at the same time he has not taken advantage of opportunities pre- sented te him to declare himself out of the running.

BERN, Switzerland, October 15.— The Swiss federal council has ad- dressed a note to the French govera- ment proposing submission of the con- troversy over the free zone of Savoy to the Permanent Court of Interna- tional Justice, or, if ¥rance prefers, to some other tribunal. A decree issued last week by the French government provides that the French customs- frontier™ in upper Savoy shall be moved to the political boundary on November 10, thus elim- inating ‘ths free zome. S8wilzerland claims this. is ‘in- violation of the treaty of Vienna. 3 (Continued on Page 2, Column 6.) WOMAN IS KILLED HIGH IN MONUMENT Head Crushed and Leg Severed at 270-Foot Level—Cause Is Unknown. An unidentified white woman of - undetermined age was instantly killed at_the 270-foot level of the Washington Monuthent shortly after 1 o'clock this afternoon. Lieut. Col. Clarence O. Sherrill, officer in charge of public build- ings and grounds, immediately in- stituted an investigation, but at the time this report went to press the cause of the accident had not been determined. It was the theory of Maj. Mac- slorris, assistant to Coi. Sherrill, that the woman was walking on the landing with a small child, about three years old, who accom- panied her, and that the child was getting near the shaft as the ele- vator'was descending. The woman is presumed to have grabbed for the child and lost her balance, fall- ing partly into the shaft. Her head: was crushed and one of her legs was severed. In a poc- ketbook which she had was found $3.18 and a local street car token. The child was removed to the Army dispensary for an examina- tion for injuries by Olive Ross, at- tached.to Col. Sherrill's office. Thomas Isaac, fifty-seven vears old, white, operator of the eleva- tor, was taken into custody by members of Col, Sherrill's police force immediately after the acci- dent and is being held at No. 1 precinet, pending the investigation by Col. Sherrill and the District coroner. WEATHER. Mostly cloudy tonight' and tomor- row; coofer tonight.

Pinchot is “smoked out” as a resuit of the stand he took yesterday and forced to.declare himself as a candidate for the nomination, Right to Dry Issue. It was pointed out today that if Gov. Pinchot is in fact intent upon becoming a candidate for the nomina- tion he has not necessarily “made a killing” in his pronouncement for en- forcement of the prohibition law. He has no monopoly upon that as a cam- paign_issue. Every other potential candidate, immediately upon entering the fleld, would declare himself as a stanch upholder of law enforcement and would thereby make a grab for i Gov. Pinchot's candy. He could not do anything else and would at once De. entitled to claim that he had as good a right to that issue as Gov. Pinchot. The suggestion was heard that Gov. Piachot is foredoomed to fail to real- ize on his pronouncement as a per- sonal and private monopoly, and that even if he could it would not offset the liability he is bound to carry as being a citizen of Pennsylvania. The republican party, it was sald, does not have to solicit Pennsylvania vote by giving that state the pres dential nomination. The party already has it totted down in its own column in the ‘electoral -college. When the republican national con- vention comes to the nomination of a candidate for the presidency it will listen to words of political wisdom from a group of hard-headed elder statesmen of the party who will take into account all "political _considera- tions, it was sald. To be sure, there will be in the convention delegates elected in the primaries and Gov. { Pinchot may be counting on making his campaign in the primary states, but even at that, it was suggested, how can he expect to claim their vote | on the srourd of lay enforcement? to the attention of Special nt Cox, one of the investigators. d Not Yet in Sight. It was admitted by the investigator: that they had heard nothing of th matter contained in the complaint of Sergt McQuade today at any time in the past, and this was cited as a typi- cal example of the items which prolonged the investigation As a matter of fact, Mr. Cox had completed several investigations out- side of Washington when he was called into this o Since taking this up he has not had time even to write a report on the ones com- cluded. Investigators cannot say how long it will be before the inquiry is brought to a close because of the possibility of additional complaints trickling in_in the future as they have in the past week or two.

Commissioner Oyster declared this afternoon that he would thoroughly inquite into any charges made against members of the police depart- ment by prohibition enforcement of- ficers The Commissioner & any such since he filed complaint more than two weeks ago against certain prohibition offi cers.
