In the first place, the inside National League rivairy ‘twixt the Giants and Dodgers always starts one of their games off with an extra jump. But when you crowd on that the fact that everything happened that could hap- pen in a pall game to make a humbic fan jump out of his skin from time to ‘time—pretty close to most of the time— then we'll admit a very loud gong has been rung. It was just like that, on the level. One instant'a player jolted into a bone that deserved the electric chair, and sixty-two half-fifths of a second later the same gent was banging into the heroics with a homer or a threer bagger, or fiel@ing and throwing like a fiend, whereas he had been figuring as @ muff and a marplot, a blind man und a boob. There were eleven innings of it (these Dodgers seem to be stuck on Marathon baseball), and from the fourth Inning onward the old score board was kept jigging, registering one way or another until the fans, who were evenly divided in sympathy, sim- ply went daffy. (Self included.) Xeh-and the players, too. They all lost their professional nonchalance and acted Hike they uséd to do when kids on the backlots winning their early hhonora. Yeb—and you should have geen Mr. John MoGraw and Mr. Wil- bert Robertson kicking up the dust around their huts, switching pitchers, out and infielders, batters from the great Brooklyn and Giant ninth inving to the great Brooklyn sleventh inning to the close of the glorious Giant also eleventh inning, when Nap McGraw and adherents jammed over the de- cisive tally of 7 to 6. In the beginning the gunmen were Benton for US and R. Mar- guard for Our Neighbors, Snyder Was our catcher.

Mel Morris third gack by sending in Lear. Wheat singled right through young Mr. Lear, who was obviously as nervous as an Anarchist facing a Federal Judge Myers kindly fanned. But Koney shot it at Mr. Lear and Mr. Lear instead of holding that buib and tapping ‘Wheat with it-—Zack being so well on his Way to third that he couldn't turn back—shipped it to Kelly at first, He cut Koney down, but, oh, boy, it was ten, twenty and thirty baseball and we despaired. Cap. Fletcher was 8° wrought up he said something openly to Lear about the incident. It was all the eadder when Neis singled and scored Wheat, It was all the yet sadder when Row—I mean Algernon Bliiott shocked a punch through Cap. Fietcher’s shins. For baseball it took on the aspect of Rocquefort, and that’s a cheese, And Stats from centre added to our misery by making a Matteawan toss of the Elliott slap to second, moving Ne's to third and Elliott to second. I thank you heartily that, after Benton walked Marquard, Mr. Olson, the always dangerous Moroccan, flied to Burns. The Brooks had a run, and when on top of that for US Young struck out, Fletch was chased to cover after a small crack to Olson and Doyle fouled to Koney, Champion Pete Herman will be Cahir next weak os he le tooked Cem, On Mendag aia jery busy for wo ‘will start the game for the Remick bunch, Joe Keit has promised # buy the dinnere for the Remick nine if they be wi @ amint Win, ¥ ‘we were not feeling at our best.

But ‘Lear the tragic third base bone of the fourth— takes his mallet in hand and the duffer of 842 wag the hero of 3.45 P, M. at the Polo Grounds. For Mr. Lear laced it to left with a smash that made the old ball sing as it sailed—sailed not only into the left bleachers, but cracked a picket m the Tear fence. Can you imagine? , (As the cabaret girls say as they tell you that they come from fine old Southern families), ‘The score was tied Brooklyn was entirely stopped in their sixth, where- as with US, after Olson had thrown out Benton, Burnsy hit it on the jow! for a double, Young walked, and Cap Wetch knocked it for a single that scored Burns, Two to one WE had tt on the Dod- gers, and it moved until the eighth when WE made it three to one by dint of another double by that consibtently good 1 player Burns and a sin- gle by Young, who was highly indig- nant over having been struck out twice previously. Then the game moved into what is usually scheduled for the last inning. Bombs of enthusiasm were pretty soon bursting in the grand stand above the Dodgers’ hut. For Myers singled and Koney doubled. Unrle Robbie bounced out tn the field, mak- ing some arrangements on inspiration. He put Hood in to run for Koney. He assigned Krueger to bat for Neis and Krueger gave it a hit on the head for a single, scoring Myers and Hood Then Uncle Robie sent Baird in to run for Krue; Biliott sacrificed, Benton to Kelly, and Rube Marquard fanned, ut Olson, the Moravian, pummeled it for a single and scored Baird. Johnston singled, but Kilduff struck out. indemonium is the tiny tinkle of a midget bell compared to the roaring outburst from the three to four thousand Dodger fans as the scoreboard showed the Brooks for four and US for three. As our half of the inning began Uncle Robbie put Schmandt in at firs, and Hood at right. Marquard re- spectfully walked young Lear. But Kell pasted the Rube for a single and sent Lear to third. Unk Robbue much worried. Chased the Rube. Put Mitch- ell in to shoot ‘em to us.° Snyder fouled to Schmandt. Mr. Jawn Mc- Graw began to pull some strategy stuff himself about then. Sent Gon- zales in to bat for Benton. He angled and hooked a walk from Mitch. The bases were filled. Burns punched it Jat Olsen, The crack forced Gonzales at second, but Manhattan jumped up and went wild-eyed and screaming with joy. The score was tie@. Right away afterwards Jonhston threw out young. There was a lull in-the tenth, but with the tension as palpable to the feels as if you were gripping the handies of an electric battery. Barnes took Benton's place in the box. He held Wheat to a fly to Young, struck Hood out and threw out Schmandt. Going some. For US Fletcher flied to Hood, Doyle wen! out Schmandt to Mitchell and Benni Kauff, who had been sent to centre to replace Statz an inning before, go! a walk, but was nailed by Mitchell of: first. Then the Eleventh and the Bir uff, Mr. Elliott singled. Lear threw ou Mitchell. Olson, the Florentine, pastec it for~e single It was short «| THUM —_—— ‘Turner and Sampson Draw.

Bennie Kauff raced in for it, took it with his gloved hand on first bound and shot it for the plates —one of the fastest, prettiest out- field plays 1 ever saw—and the throw in was a whiszbang for speed and accuracy, but Snyder, OUR catcher, got it on the edge of his glove and it took a forty foot bound. 6 bound off a glove for a ball chucked from centre. Elliott, of course, scored. Johnston's jab was knocked down by Doyle, but Olson scurried home on it while Johnston was massacred; at first, Kilduff got by with a safety, but Barnes tossed out Wheat. The “EL” tower house whistle going at full blast this time, was a@ bum soprano com to the i, shrieks, whistles -and howls of the Dodger devotees. What ho! said they, what do ou know about Six to Four as he final score? right away rounced by Uncle Robbje, Grimes being summoned. Our M Kid Kelly tripled, scoring Our Mr Lear. Grimes threw out Snyder and Our Mr. Smith went in to bat for |Our Mr. Barnes. Our Mr. Smith hic to Their Mr. Grimes and Our Mr. Kid Kelly was caught off third. He jock- eyed his way through half a dozen Dodgers safely back to third But just at that moment, wherever bo got his inspiration from, Our Me. Smith also pounded from second 10 third tag, and Our Mr. Kelty and Our Mr. Smith were to have been seen staring wildly at each other while standing on the same bag, Our Mr, Smith was, of course, out, Our Mr. Burns walked. Then our M* Young singled to right, scoring Our Mr. Kelly and putting Our Mr, Burns on third and Our Mr. Young on sec- ond. And then Our Capt. Mieteher sent such a stiff grounder toward first that Schmandt muffed it, and Our Mr. Burns travelled across wit): the Grand Tally, and all Coogan Bluff sympathizers were mighty happy Birds and everybody was going around slapping everybody on the shoulder, asking everybody if it wasn't one of the hottest, best base- ball games anybody ever sw.
