BY DENMAN THOMPSON, ; Sports Editor. The Star ROUTE TO ST. LOUIS, October 4—It's a jubilantly confident bunch of Cardinals who are speeding toward their own stamping grounds where hostilities against the Yankees for base ball's highest title are to be resumed tomorrow. As a result of the sound 6-to-2 thrashing they administered the Amer- ican Leaguers at Yankee Stadium yesterday they now arc on even terms with their rivals and feel that with the moral support of the wildly en- thusiastic home town fans who have waited 38 years for this event, they will ride to the world championship on the tide of success which started flowing in their favor during the Sabbath setto. They even hope to attain their objective by making a clean sweep of the three tilts listed for the Sportsman's Park and therby' obviate the T ——— SERIES STATISTICS By the Associated Pross necessity for returning to New York. The view naturally is at variance to that held by the Yanks, who are very decidedly of the opinion that no other hurler in the Mound City array will spike their guns so effectually as did_Grover Cleveland Alexander yes- terday, and that they will make some of his brethren suffer for their humil- | Club fating experience of Sunday by doing some slugging on their own account. Rhem or Reinhart to Pitch. While no definite announcement has been forthcoming from either camp it is expected that Flint Rhem or Arthur Reinhart, the latter a_left- hander, will ascend the mound for the National Leaguers in the third engagement of the series tomorrow, against Waite Hoyt, in condition, one of the most effective orthodox twirlers in the junior circuit, although there is a possibility that Manager Miller Huggins will call on Dutch Ruether, the southpaw obtained from the Griff men just a few weeks age. The triumph registered by the Cardinals yesterday was a most de- cisive one and unlike Saturday's opening clash, was colorful and inter- esting to the even larger throng that turned out.

Billy Southworth, a fly chaser, who had seen service with the Cleveland Indians, Pittsburgh Pirates and Bos. ton Braves before being traded to St. Louis by the New York Giants this past season, was the batting hero of the day. He scored two mates ahead with 2 home-run drive in round seven to break a deadlock that had existed since the third inning, when his single was a factor in matching tne brace of tallies recorded by the Yan- kees in the previous frame. Bottomley Hero on Offensive. Second to Southworth for attacking honors was Jim Rottomle: single wiped out the Yankee's lead, but Tom Thevenow & tinguished himself on offense. youthful short stopper, now playing his firsc full season with the Cardi- nals, in addition to helping set the stage for Southworth's spectacular swat, also broke into the home-run cl but with a circuit clout that was one of the most freakish ever recorded In the histor of these Autumnal events. Babe Ruth, who failed to get a ball out of the infield in four attempts, was the goat in this play, although he was not given an error. As a matter of fact, there was but one misplay recorded and that was charged against Alexander, who also was guilty of another bobble of the mental variety. This was in the sec- ond inning, before he swung into his real stride, and both varieties figured in the only scoring dome by the Yanks. Meusel opened the frame, after ap- parently having been struck out, with a single to center and moved up on Gehrig's death. Lazzeri then pound ed ety to left and Meusel set sail for home.

The St. Louis fan arily is a keen “homer,” but world scries stuff being new to him, it probably will cause him to be a bit more generous toward the visiting club player. It is to be hoped that the contend- ers for base ball's biggest prize will give the St. Louis crowds more in the way of base ball that might reasona- bly be expected of major league cham- pions_than was exhibited before the New York throngs.
