Speaking of Sports | The batting Agures on the lasl game of the world series are remarkable The Giants got 10 hits yet they could | enly bring in four runs; the Yankees | #9t only five hils out of which they | made six runs. Of course they had other ingredients. | Nehf allowed only four hits in the seven and -third inpings he work- ed: He kept the Yankees hitting the ball down; enly once did the peliet go into the air to a Giant outfelder, and only two other balls went beyond the fafield—Ruth's home run and Meu. sel's elghth inning s e that won the game, It went past Baneroft to Cun. pingham, There were only three extra base hits, Sayder's and Ruth's home runs and Frisch's three-bagger, The last man to bat for the Glants was Jack Dentley, the pitcher for whom the club pald $65,000 to the Baltimore Orioles, He has been called upon twice previously to pineh hit and had delivered both times. He rolled weakly to Ward and Pipp took the catch that ended the game, Aaron was 80 delighted that he threw his arms around Umpire Nallin, who had work- ©d at first base, “Jumping” Joe Dugan was given & warm hand when he came to the plate in the first inning, the crowd remem- bering his great stick work Sunday that virtually won the game for the Yankees., “Ma" and “Pa" Dugan, as the par- ents of the Yankee third baseman ‘have become known to the baseball fans, remained over to see their “by,"” as Irish “Pa" Dugan calls his son, perform, They had come down Sunday from New Haven, Conn. Dugan faced a critical situation in the cight when he came to the plate with the bases full and the tying and winning runs on base. Happlly he was walked on four pitched balls. Two balls hit by Giants batters struck the slightly-bullt Herb Pennock the Yankee twirler. The first was Frisch's single in the first inning that came down so fast that Pennock couldn’t get out of the way. The ball hit his shins and ricocheted out to short rightfield. The second was Ban- croft's hard bounder in the seventh that went like a bullet into Pennock’s gloved hand, rolling over to Ward, wlhe got the runner at first. Cunningham's hit in the fourth, scoring the second Giant run, was his first hit of the series. Snyder's home run aiso was his first hit of the six games. "‘Pancho” got one other hit Lkut “Bll” was an easy out his third thine up. = L A . i ” Do You Know What You Are Smoking? Asik the averaze man what Cigar he calls for when le wants & mild, enjoyable smolke—his answer will invariably be “a ‘Mid Havana,’ of course.” If you tell him that the majority of so-called Mild Havana cigars owe thelr mildness to the use of Porto Rican Tobacco in the filler, he will hardly belleve you. Nevertheless it {5 a fact that last year twenty-five million—25,000,000 pounds of this aromatic leat were expertly blended with other tobacco by the manufac- turers of clgars in this country, in making the {deal mild, but fragrant smoke. In addition, mfllions of cigars are also imported from Porto Rico to satlsfy the taste of the American smokers. THE PORTO RICAN GOVERNMENT Now guarantees the origin of all to- bacco shipped from that Island, cither In the leaf or in cigars, by means of & Guarantes stamp. An_lllustrated booklet “A Story of a Porto Rican Cigar,” will be giadly sent on request. GOVERNMENT OF PORTO RICO Tobaco Guarantee Agency 136 Water St, New York City, The sun made one brief & i the game—in the siuth Frisch greeted it with his thres.! Bt " Not one Giant nor Yankes reguler falled cither 1o get al least twe hils or score at least one run in the serles Frisch and Ward, thg rival second basemen, led thelr respective teams in | hitting, each getting 10 safeties, the Yankee keystone-sacker sooring four runs and the Glant player coming seress the plate twice. Frankie got 16 hits in 25 times &t bat and Ward got Bis 10 hits in one less trip to the plate. Ruth was fanned more than any other player. He whiffed six times. His seven hits, however, including three home runs, were good for & total of 19 bases, more than thoese made by any other man on either team. His bhatting average was second of the Yankees only to Ward, The Babe was eredited with only 19 times “at hat" as he was passed elght times, more times than apyoné else, , who follows Ruth in e batting erder, batted fn than any man on either Ruth—seven—but was t times, more than any man on his team, and hit 209, Dangérous though he is particularly in a pinch, Meusel was walked only once. Everett Scott, thought by experts to be the weak link in the Yankes at- tack was tied with Wallle Schang for third place among the Yankee batters, Like Ruth and Meusel he got seven hits In the series in 23 times “at bat,” all of them singles, struck out only once, made a sacrifice hit, and rang up a mark of .318, He batted in three runs. Five Yankee hitters got seven hits each—Dugan, Ruth, Bob Meusel, Scott and Schange. Only three pitches on both teams finished the games they started. Ar- thur Nehf was the only Glant to go nine innings, and that in the third game which the Giants won, 1 to 0. Herb Pennock and “Bullet” Joe Bush were the only Yankee twirlers to go the route. Pennock winning his first start in the fourth game, 8 to 4 and Bush winning the fifth game, 1 to 1. Huggins was presented with a dla- mond ring by his.players after the game. The best team won, said McGraw. But that was no original phrase of wisdom enamating from the ‘‘great brain.”” Several million fans arrived at the same conclusion at about the same time, but their views were not featur- ed in the sports page headlines. Fame was ‘fleeting for Ryan. He fanned Babe with the bases full, then Meusel punctured his balloon by sock- ing out the hit that wen. The Yanks are just 21 years old as a major league outfit. They cele. brated their maturity fittingly. Nehf's only comment was that his arm simply gave out. And that prob- ably is about the size of it. Bob Meusel, the man who won the waorld series for the Yankees at the Polo Grounds yesterday, explained how he made his famous hit in the eighth inning that brought the series to an end. “I went up to the plate determined to hit,” said Meusel. “Ryan's first pitch was a curve ball that broke over the plate and went for a strike. He threw another curve that broke over the plate. I put every ounce of power in my arms behind the swing and got the thrill of my life when I saw the ball going into center fleld. x The umpires who worked in the world series called on Judge Landis and asked for an increase in pay in view of the big attendance. They now get $2000 each. “Don’t you think the ummpires as impertant as the players?” one of the umpires asked. The judge deliberated a minute.
