NURWICH BULLETIN, MONDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1914 INSURANCE BEFORE STARTING YOUR FALL WORK TAKE A - WORKMEN'S COMPENSATION POLICY WITH J. L. LATHROP & SONS 28 Shetucket Street, Norwich, Conn. : Other. Boston, Oct. 11.—Philadelphia Ath- letics and Boston Braves, contending teams in the world championship base- ball series, rested here today and to- night while the scenes of the contests were shifted. The champions of the American and National leagues respec- tively, will meet tomorrow and Tues- day at Fenway park,.in the third game of the series which was begun in Phil- adelphia last Friday, With two victoriés gained toward the four necessary to obtain the world title, the Boston nine faced with con- fidence_the two games to be played here. They had gone to Philadelphia & short-end chance in the appraisal of baseball followers generally; they Teturned today to a tremendous recep- tion, favorites for the world honors. The Athletics,_ fighting with their backs to the wall to defend the world championship from a continuation of the remarkable rush which brought the Braves to victory in the National league, were outwardly still Tonfident. All expressed hope that they would yet L win. “We are far from beaten vet,” said Stuffy McInnis. “All we need is a little hit once n a while. And we'll Rget, those tomorrow.” Manager Stallings of the Braves in discussing his pitching possibilities for. tomorrow, thought otherwise. “It may be Tyler, or it may be Rudolph,” he said,” “but whichever it is I am.siyre the boys will out-hit their oppone: And with the fielding we have shown. the: result is certain.” 4 ) In answer to a question to an en- thusiast as to whether the’ Braves were likely to take four straight, the “Miracle " Man” smiled and : said: “We've got a good team.” The identity- of. Manager = Mack's choice for plicher tomorrow was'the element of greatest -uncertainty _to- night. - Would he send the Indian, Ben- der, batted from the box in the: first game at Philadelphia, back to retrieve his defeat, or choose a youngster to bear the burden of directing almost a last stand. . These were the questions among the crowds gathered about the hotel lobbies tonight. ‘ In-the event of a cloudy day tomor- row, it was thought Manager Mack ARGUMENT 1S UNNECESSARY Every -thinking person is alive to the importance of being insured against loss by fire.

The uncertain- ty as to the pitchers influenced betting tonight. Two to one on the Braves to win the series was most quoted, but there were few takers. The biggest crowd that ever saw a world's_series game in this city is looked for tomorrow. The celebration ot Columbus day as a holiday will re- lieve thousands of “fans” from stores and shops to attend the contest and it is expected that the limit of the seating accommodation at Fenway park, 87,000, will be reached. Sixteen thousand reserved seats in grandstand, boxes and the left fleld pavilion already have been disposed of, The speculators got a few of the ticekts, but it was estimated tonight that there were not more than 500 in their hands all told. It would be im- possible to reduce this number very much, according to Robert McRoy of Chicago, representing the national commission. Mr. McRoy said that he believed the experiences in Philadel- phia, where thousands of seats sold at public sale were obtained by specula- TRIUMPHAL BRAVES PLAY AT HOME Big Crowd Will Witness First World’s Series Battle in Boston Today—Both Teams Confident of Victory—Choice of Boxmen is Uncertain—Bender and Tyler:May Face Each tors, would-result in abolition of. this form of the tickets in future years. Mr. McRoy had the disposal of 1,500 seats allotted the National commission for the games here. Tonight they were | all gone and he was refusing. countless requests. Bven Président Gaffney of the Boston club and Manager Staliings sought him out in the hope of obtain- ing a few more séats for friends, but without success. Seekers for the cholce of the] 20,000 unreserved seats appeared foday. Shortly before noon two men who would not give their names went ‘to the bleacher gate and hired two boys to remain there until tomorrow morn- ing, sitting on boxes. By sundown'a Iong line had formed, in which boys were most numerous. A cocg breeze which sprang up after dark, following a day of unseasonable warmth, threatened discomfort to_the ticket line. but promised better play- ing cOnditions for the teams. There were some indications that light show- ers might fall ‘during the _morning hours, but*the prospect of‘a fair play- ing day was considered a good one, The reception to the Braves on their return this morning was enthusiastic. Mayor Curley headed an o cial com- mittee, backed by 8,000 people Wwho crowded the great train shed at’the South Station. Every player was shaken Dby the hand or patted on'the back Defore he could escape. Manager Mack and his players came in quistly and went totheir -hotel. They remafned ‘theré during the day. DEAL THE MAN OF THE HOUR. Boston Braves Again Defeated Phila- delphia Athietics — Great Pitchers’ Battle Between James and Plank. “in a pitchers’ battle with a dramatic climax. usually reserved for basebail fiction, the Boston Nationals defeated the Philadelphia Americans at Phila- delphia Saturday in the ‘second game of ‘the world's series by a score of 1 to 0. - As ‘& Tesult of the victory. the Braves left for Boston Saturday night with a two game lead’ over the Ath- letics and the added advantage of play- ing the mext two contests on _thelr home grounds when - the series is re- sumed on, Mpnday. Al ough the American league Tep- resentatives were forced to bow, for the second time in two days, to the superior play of their National league rivals, they offered a far more deter- mined opposition than was the case on Friday, For eight innings the two clubs_ battled behind the pitching of James and Plank without the sem- blance of an advantage. Then came the break in the game and again the Mackmen saw another world's series contest slip from their clutches to the credit of the Stallings clan. James had' been pitching unhittable ball, and Plank, while not quite so ef- fective, had, with the aid of his.re- markable infeld, held Boston scoreless. The Athlefics’ veteran twirler was working as smoothly as at the hegin- ning of the gamé: when Maranville faced him at the ing of the ninth inning. The phattomlike shortstop went out, Barry to Mclnnis and Deal, sub third baseman in place of Red Smith, stepped to the plate. The Ath- letic followers -were already figuring on what chance theiz’ players had to win out in th> ninth. Deal and james appeared to be easy outs. The Boston third sacker, who had hit into three double plays on Fridey and forced three teammates iu Saturday's game, was not considered a batling fector. It was Deal, howeyer, who . upset Plank’s expectations and the Athletics’ chances. He drove a long double over Strunk’s head and a moment later stole third when Schang threw low to Barry to catch Deal off the base. Barry turned to throw to-third, but held the ball and Deal was eafe. Whether Ba- ker was not close enough to the bag or Barry believed it was too late to head off the runner is mnot known. James fanned, but Mahn lifted a low puzzling Texas leaguer over Eddie Collins’ head and, although the latter made a great try for the ball, he just THE LANDING OF COLUMBUS Brewing Company - - Rbode Island touched it with his fingertips and sprawled on_ the turf, Deal dashing across the plate with the solitary run of the game.

Saturday afternoon the Academy eleven met its second defeat of the season ‘when it lined up against the Greeneville A. C. team on the campus. The score was 6 to 0. The Academy's attac kwas very weak and thelr backs were usually thrown for a loss.. This ing team, coming by trolley and auto- bus. Umpire Curran's decisions found much disfavor, but the visitors were outhit and outflelded in the contest. The Emeralds scored in the first in- ning on two hits and an error and add- ed,three more in the third on a single, a odouble, two bases on balls and an error. Three clean doubles in the seventh, followed by an error, gave them three more, and their last two came in the eighth on an error, a double and two singles. The Sachems scored twice in the third on e double, an error and two singles, and added” one each in the eighth and ninth, 3 Comins with two doubles and a sin- le and Adams with two singles and a ouble led in the batting. The fleld- ing feature was a double play by Houlihan, Brogan and Ensling which killed an' Emerald rally in the fourth. The score: Sachems, AB. R. H. P.O. A. E. 3 3 3 Houlihan, 2b. Ensling, 1b. .

The half- backs failed to give each other any in- terference on the offense, while,on the defense the tackling was high. 'Satur- day was the first time a local eleven ever defeated an Academy team, and the only solace to -the schoolboys in their defeat was the discovery of a new backfield star in the person of Holmes. In the first quarter Right Halfback Avery hurt his knee and Holmes took his place. He at once started a march down the fleld in Ted Coy style, gaining every time he car- rled the ball, and had the other backs been able to equal him it is certain the result of the game would have been different. Weighing 170 pounds, he was a tower of strength on the deferise and whenever the Greeneville backs passed the Academy line he brought them to earth. When he retired in the fourth quarter with only four minutes to play, Greeneville carried the ball over for a touchdown from midfield. After Holmes, the men who played the best game for N. F. A. were the big guards, Wilcox and Beebe, Joseph Hull, end, and Bill Stanley, quarterback. Joe Hull made a feature run of 25 yards on an end shift. Quarterback -Supa of Greeneville. displayed rare generalship anq deserves much credit for his team’s victory. In the last two minutes of play he threw two forward passes o Grady which resulted in the ball being carried from the 40 yard line for a touchdown. Fullback Fleming made some good _runs. Greeneville's play was married by many fumbles which can be attributed to lack of practice. Next week will see a shift in the Acad- emy’s lineup, it is reported. Lineups: B Hun Grady .

Wil- son kicked off and within three min- utes Jess Greenhalfh scored the first goal with a well placed kick and the Taftville team ;scored in each half. The home team played a very strong de- fensive game at times, but were-out- classed. Referee Little refereed a fa- vorable game, making his decisions quick and accurate.
