New York, Oct. 7.—Sherrod - Smith, Brooklyn's southpaw hurling ace, “pitch- ed nimself into a’place in’the " world's series hall of fame today when he held Cleveland helpless in the third game of the super-pennant struggle - the National leaguers won 2 to 1. it] the. “stormy petrel” of baseball, w connection with the Robins is the thir- teenth -since his debut on the professional diamond, found this ~ circumstance mno handicap. Any jinx hovering around the twirler from.Mansfield, Ga., found lodge- ment in the ball which baffled the des- perate efforts of the Indian club swingers throughout the entiré nine in- nings of the game. 3 Smith, whose hurling today easily won him a place among the stars of the base- ball classic such as Mathewson, Coombs, McGinty and Bender of ancient series, was supported by his teammates in a manner which fully equalled the best ex- hibitions of fielding seen in mhany similar conflicts since the National Commission as- sumed a league-of-natons protectorate over the autumnal struggle of the major league 'premiers. The Supeérbas backed up their pitcher like the secondary de- fense of an All-American football team and it was almost impossible for the Cleveland batters to get a drive through ‘the various combinatiops which shifted with lightning speed from place to place wherever the ball was hit. Three hits ‘only were made off the winning hurler and of these Catcher O'Neill gathered in two, and Manager Tris Speaker ome. No better Criterion of Smith's effectiveness of his ability to turn back the average batter is neded. Speaker —~a~ h'= hit, a double. in the urth ; O'Neill followed with a single in the fifth and anowner in the eighth inning. That was the total of the American League pennant winners' batting emd had Zack Wheat played Speaker's double safely, Smith would have been credited with a world's series shut-out. Of the 28 Indians who faced the Rob- ing' star left-hander, only five reached first. Of these, three arrived on hits and two on passes. Speaker scored on an er- wvas once the victim of a double tor. Two. were left on bases and.O Jamieson, who ran for him in the eighth inning, met a similar fa‘e, Smith hurled 109 balls up to the visifots, of which 29 were strikes. 41 balls, $ foul strikes, § fouls, 5 field outs, 18 ground outs and three hi ; Brooklyn, while never free from the fear of a Cleveland rally. batted its way to vietory in the first inning as it event- ually proved. by falling upon the puny offering of Ray Caldwell as soon as he took his place on the mound. Waat Manager Speaker saw in Caldwell ves when the latter warmed up, will always be a mystery. Certainly the lanky former Yankee had nothing but deliberation after he entered the bOX. Of this he had plenty and to spare. base on balls, an error, and two hits netted the Superbas the two runs that won the game before Speaker could wig- wag Ray away and replace him by Duster Mails. The former Robin while not ag effective as his rival Smith, was not an easy proposition, and backed up by some splendid field'ng, prevented any further scoring. But with ~Brookly# portsider going at the pace he had sot for himself, the initial slip of the Cleve- land combination was its undoing. In many respects the game measured up to the very best conte § seen in any ‘world's series in many years. . Old. time | piayers and followers.woua unanimous in this opinion after the final ‘out had been “marred by two errors, evenly ,@ivided, | fairly scintillated with thrilling _individ- tal and combination defensive plays wr |brought' the thousands™ of spectator their feet repeatedly. Ve It was'the first contest to. be played real baseball weather and the fans show- ud the effects of the more suitable setting. Not a _cloud obscuredsthe sun and only a lazy breeze disturWed the Indian sum- wner haze. ‘The overcoats which the' spec- tators wrapped tightly around themselves during the first two games, _were dis- 1arded, while occasional purchasers - of peanuts and pop ginger added 'a true taseball touch to the picture. There was, however, little change in “the collective sttitude of the fans, 8o far as rooting was- concerned. Speaker was given the greatest applause of any individual play- wr. Members of both teams came in for repeated cheers following fine plays, but the rooting which has made other serles famous in the past, was still missing, notwithstanding that the home club was frinning and winning repeatedly. The outbursts of applause, which greet- «d the rapidly succeeding feats of first wne, and then the other team, were spon- | taneous and impartial. Partisanship, ex- tept in a few individual cases, was no- riceably abgent. It may have been due to the f: that these ihrillin, plays | vame so rapidly that the Brookiyn fans never had time to set thémselves for a genuine outburst of concerted and home “eam rooting. The baseball fireworks opened in the recond inning ‘when Rightfielder Griftith wmade a great running catch off Jo 'Wood's bat that robbed the Clevelani nutfielder of a sure double. A moment later Konetchy knocked down Sewell’s blazing slash and retired “him at first with a snap throw to Smith. - Both play- wrs were required to.doff their caps ra- veatedly as they came to the bench. In the third Konetchy and Kilduff figured in another star play. O'Neill's smasa “airly tore its way through the hands of the Robins’ first sacker, but, the ball was deflected by Koneichy’s efforts to ston it +nd shot off toward Kilduff, who scooped it up and flung it back to Smith who had -ushed over to tover the *ag. Again in the fifth session, the Brooklyn Infield figured in a fast double pla ton knocked down Mails' wicked +nd recovering his balance with an fort, tossed the bhall to Kilduff, forc 'Neill at ‘sec whirled and-pai§ Speaker’s plavers let themseives vinder inis incentive in the sixth .when in handiing ‘the ball arous-d rongs to .+ frenzy.

Prices were subjected to a suc- cession of confusng advances and declines many mixed changes resuiting at the ir- regular close. In a measure rails maintained their recent leadership, a number of high and low priced shares displaying unusual ac- tivity, largely on the resumption of bullish operations by pools and other professional interests. Reading, which featured the long ac- count in yesterday's market, made a new high Tecord for several years at 101 1-4, but ended at a met loss of 1 1-2 points, while ‘Texas and Pacific recovered only the smallest fraction of yesterday's se- vere loss. Much of Reading’s early strength pro- ceeded from the belief that the directors are considerina plans for the early sepa- ratio nof the company’s coal properties. with resultant beneficial interest to the stockholders. s Steels and equipments were again in- fluenced in their erratic course by back- ward trade conditions, which also affected such stocks as General Electric, Westing- house and ‘Harvester, where in recessions ran from 2 to 5 points, while Sears-Roe- buek suffered a further loss of 3 points Oils, shippings, motors and sugars em- braced .the other uncertain elements of the day, notably Mexican and Pan- American petroleums, Atlantic Gulf, Unit- ed Fruit, American International and American Beet Sugar, ‘together with leather, copper and chemical issues, sales amounted to 800,000 shares.

KNOX AND MALLORY HATS HACPHERSON’S QUALITY CORNER always rank well to the fore in the annals of world’s series games. The outcome of the.third game in no way appeared to affect the confidence of Manager Speaker in the ability —of his players to win out in the coming battles which switch to Cleveland tonight. “We will win the series,” was the com- ment of Speaker as he left Ebbets field. He declared Brookiyn's victory, or rath- er Cleveland's defeat, was due to better team work in the field by Brookiyn. “The Brooklyn fielders were up on_theit toes and certainly played great baséhall,” he said, “while our men in the field did not do so well today.” | Manager Speaker praised the work of | Shortstop Sewell, who only recentiy came into the major league and predicted that “some day that boy is going to be one of “the best.” Manager Robinson of Brooklyn declar- ed that his opinion on the final result was still the same as it was before the first game was played. “Just as I thought two days ago” said Robbie, “the series will be very close. The clubs are very evenly mtch- ed. But I think we have the edge on Cleveland in respect to pitchers.” He paid a compliment to his players for their gameness and the ability to stage a cameback. “The thing needed in a world's series” he said, “is nerve, and our boys certainly Both teams are trying their best to win and their efforts shou!d stop all talk of baseball scandal” It may have been a lucky thing for Brooklyn that Mansger Speaker at the last moment decided to start Ray Cald- well in the box, for it was while Ray was on the mound that Manager Robin- son’s boys got-their two runs. Ivy Olson, the Brooklyn shortstop, who has proved the most consistent player of either team in reaching first, his record for the three games being eight out of twelve, drew a pass in Brooklyn's half of the first. Jimmy Johnston promptly sacri- ficed him to second and he advanced to third when Sewell fumbled grounder. Ivy completed the circuit on Wheat’s hit to left and Griffith went to the midway. -From that point the right flelder scored when Myers hit to short right. Tris Speaker. with the wunintentional! aid of Zack Wheat, saved his team from a shutout. In the fourth the Cleveland Th: smash was ordinarily good for two bases, but Wheat let the ball go through him and it rolied- tp the far corner of the lot. Speaker continued around tie bases and scored so easily that Wheat made no ef- fort to-throw the ball home, The pitching analysis of the Cleveland boxmen show that nearly half of the 20 balis thrown by Caldwell in the 1-3 in- ning he nerformed, were wide of the plate. Three went as strikes, four as Zoul strikes and’ two were grounders. one of which.was fumbled. ,The other two were hils that sent in the two runs for Brooklyn. Mails pitched creditably in his 6 2 n- nings. Although his ball total of 28 was almost equal to that of Smith for 9 in- nings, he held Brooklyn to three hits nd no, runs. HN rgent ag¢oss 19 strikes and received credit for 14 on fouls. our fouls came after fhe second strike. The Cleveland lefthander started well, throw- ing 7 balls in the fractional inning and 8 in the second. Afcer that his total was nevgr less than 11, and in the sev- enth he pitched 23 times. 12 of which were wide of the plate. TUhle. in his one innings, had three balls, three strikes, three foul strikes and two plaing fou's. Eight Brooklyn men went out on flies and 10 on grounders, not including the hall Sewell erred on. The ball total for the-tkhree Indian twirlers was 50. and the strike tdtal ha'f that nunber. Brooklyn batters foul;d off 21 offerings, for strikes.
