The batter, of all the Giants, was Lindstrom, the demoniac youngster who had relentlessly driv- en the veteran to seeming oblivioff with four hits at the Polo Grounds. Walter made him pop out. People were proud of Walter; hopeful. that le might still emerge as the hero of the series, Frisch hit a triple to deep center. People were sorry for Walter—sorry that it was going to happen again But it didn't. Johnson deliber- ately passed Young and struck out George Kelly, premier Giant slug- ger with murder in his bat, on three pitched Walls, In the next in- | ning he struck out Jackson. In the 11th Heine Groh, making his first appearance in the series, singled. Southworth ran for him and went to second on Lindstrom’s sacrifice. | Again Johnson deliberately passed Young and again whiffed Kelly. The gods were pulling the strings for Walter who worked like one of them |in the box. The battle of witnesses had gone on. Nehf went:in for Barnes after Harris drove in the tylng runs in the eighth. In the ninth McQuillan veplaced Nehf after an error by Jackson gave the Senators a chance.

Late in the second half we tied the score and victory was ours {f we could register the ex- tra point ‘after touchdown. It was the effort to score that point that produced the play 1 am describing, We lined up to drop kick for the needed point. But when Kopf had called the signals he noticed the Lafayette secondury defense move up te the first, whereupon he turn- ed to Captain Brenkart and cau- tloned: “Be sure and make it good.” That was ‘the signal to change fo a forward pass. So complete was the deception in the play that not a Lafayette man was within 15 yards of Kopf when he caught the ball. And, as 1 sald above, our supporters in the stands thought Brenkart had attempted a kick and failed, The week before we had been able to tie Georgia Tech because under similar circumstances West had kicked a goal, thongh liow he ever did it T don’t know, as Tech had brought 10 men into the line in an effort to block his kick Tiey should have suc ded. That is why the forward pass alternative was conceived, “Profit by your mistakes,” the noral writers tell us. And by your riear mistakgs, I would add, It came near being mistake for us not to change the play when Carnegie Tech threw all its effort into block- ing that kick. We were lucky fo | score and knew it. So when the | situation recurred within a week we were ready. And didn't it pay?
