If you took your best girl to see it—and she | escaped pneumonia—you were hap- pily confident at the end that she had not been shocked; her maiden temperature must have remained ut | moved. No doubt there are writers who will describe yesterday's event ag the climacteric hour and three-quare | ters of the season, but they are pere jured hounds and have sold their | souls to the devil. It was a nice game —a’ new, sad, reliable game, warranted as a milker or undersad- dled—but an exhibition of world baseball it was as saddening as | packload of calla lilies. It is true that Tris Speaker k@pt up his pace of high catches and cynically accurate throws, and that Mr, Coveleskie was so consistently the master of Mr. Marquard that the Brooklyn outfit kept a film full of pitchers gingering about the warm-up screen from the first in- ning until sorrowing friends finally blew out Mr. Marquard’s gas. Flowers are being omitted not by request. One always has hopes, however, | else life would be as totally devoid lof value as a counterfeit Russian | rouble. No doubt geese flesh will be worn today as shamelessly as it was yesterday while 18 athletes are per- forming prodigies of skill and valor. | The one bright spot that appears in Sretrospecting yesterday's game is that it was certainly honest.
