In the first game of the Giant series, Mitchell, the Dodger pitcher, acting as a pinch hitter, slammed the ball over the right field wall for a homer.

E playera have the layers dangling on the ropes these days at Aqueduct. Yesterday five more favorites “rattled home,” making the total fourteen out of eighteen since the meeting began. Oddly enough, two of yesterday's fa- vorites, Right Angle and The Young Cavalier, were more or less unknown to racegoers on their way to the track. Neither was mentioned for any part of the money by the nows- paper handicappers’ and tipsters, and they might just as well have been in their stable munching hay as far as the so-called consensus of opinion is concerned. The Evening World, how- ever, had both on top in its selections, and for some reason or other, as has been the case in sitnilar instances, both were installed favorites when the opening quotations were listed. They proved so much the best in their respective races that they won in handy fashion with the racing luck all against them. Right Angle, off in @ tangle, had to take the over- land route from a bad break, but when he got into a contending po- sition at the far turn he ran through ‘the field like a streak and was second behind Alvord when the stretcn was reached. In the drive home Right Angle came away easily. The Young Cavalier was ready every time it looked like a start, but ‘was totally unprepared when the bar- rier finally did shoot up. He, like Right Angle, had to pick his way through his field and really didn’t get racing room until nearing the home turn. Midway between the far turn and the stretch Johnny Loftus took Somerled, a hot tip of the race, on the outside of him and as he forged a bit ahead swung over to the rail, sharply cutting off The Young Cavalier, Shuttinger, his rider, had to take up and drop back a couple of lengths. Wen he got going again Shuttinger Steered a course around Somerled, so that in making the turn he had to take to the outside. , Mean- while Leading Star was running right up to his name with a couple of lengths of daylight between him and the rest of them, It didn’t look as if he would ever be caught, for Teddy |Rice was saving every inch of ground possible. Straightened for the run home, Shuttinger had to sit down and ride The Young Cavalier and he did it to the Queen's taste. He caught Leading Star in the final eighth and outgamed him the rest of the way. There is an old rule followed by | Some players and it has proved profit- able.
