i . = i ay Capturing Sgt wo - Giants Beat Cubs ‘Again, the Series Four Games Out of Five . The Bears as Tame as Kittens Against Fighting New York Club, By Charles Somerville. ON, PEP YOUNG, assisted by Terrible Toney, Cap'n faw- rence Doyle and Loot Frank Fordham Frisch, made the Cubs of one ‘time bearrcat repute look ike a bunch of mewling kittens fit for drowning yesterday, swamp- ing the poor blokes by a score of 7 to 1 to the immense pleasure of 30,000 reclaimed “Giant rooters. Four gut of five in the series! Pretty neat, Tl say. How about you? You said it. Like @ funeral procession the Cubs fended thelr way from Coogan's Btuft to their hotel last night, and to- ay will be all surly and ecratohy and snarly when they encounter the Dodgers in Dbbets Field. ; It's a cinch fhe Giants are not wishing them any hard luck over the water. Especially ‘peeing that Brooklyn came to the sur- face yesterday just when folks were beginning to think they had gone down for the third time. For the second time in the series Hippo Vaughn felt the sting of the Giant willows and ash clubs, Po! little feller! He fated from ‘view after the peventh with seven smacks registered against him, one of them a homer from the propeller of Pep in the fourth. Amd “Nick” Carter took his place. Will come to that presently. Ve authors always hang on to our Uveliest chapters for the finish. In the beginning the waters looked a bit troubled, what with Toney slip- Flack @ pass.

But Ump Kiem aid no, b’gosh, he didn't. Then Terry pped it clean and hard into right fa single, and on Pep Young's fumble of the drive Herzog vantered to third and Terry to second. Only \ one down, ‘Mari on third and second. ‘Not so good—not so good. But next the $0,000 were electrified great defensive playing by our heroes, Harber belted a fierce drive to right that looked all billed ‘and receipt signed) for a single. But Larry Doyle made a fifty-foot swoop for it. And got it! And snapped it to Snyder at the plate, who tapped tho toe of the sliding Herzog and ine ump gave the high sign that Charlie had been chopped off.

It would have torn Toney’s conk off if the old boy hadn't’ got his mitts up in time. He couldn't hold it, but brought it to a dead drop against his glove, poked it wp and shot It to Kell for the third out, Hoots toots, says we, holdin’ of ‘em! $o we.came forward for our first session with the clubs. Burns filed that's a to right. Beaut to short to first. Lretty punk start. O, well! —that's different. Pep has just stung one to centre, and Paskert js puddling around with it Ikke the ball was yet too hot to pick up. So Pep slants safely to second. And Frankie Frisch @napped it into left for a baser, and Pep, shakes a speedy hoof ‘to the plate. Kell passed away on a drool to Herzog. Next came Pep's homer in the fourth, It travelled at Babe Ruth sapeed to the lower tier of the grand stand, aud was rising when it passed among the happy peepul. The Fordham phenom began the enth with a safe crack to centre, fd Kell pubhed him along to second ‘with @ sacrifice bunt. King fouled to the oatoher. Larry gave the ball such @ sturdy trounce that, though it struck not far fram the plate, took euch an almighty high bounce—about fifty fect—that when Herzog got It Friach ‘was safe on third and Charite’s effort to nip Larry at second failed as well. Larry immediately made a dash for gecond. Killefer throw well to Herzog but the Canteloupe "kid" muffed lke @ busher and Frisch raced home, but Larry was brought down on an in- tended visit to the third sack, The Cubs came up bristling in the hth. Merkle was sent in to bat top Killefer. He soaked a near home run which Georgie Burns took the kick out of. But Twombly, who lift- ed the stick, representing Tiny Jim Vaughn, produced a safe rap to right. And so did Flack pronto after him. It placed Twomb on third. And only ‘one out. Herzog cracked it high into centre. King cupped the bulb and dashed forward to the infleld line, By so doing the heady gent scared Twomb out of making a try for the plate after the catch. Terry handed the bulb an awful poke. It looked (rasoe nam ' Sparkling Milk | A product of rich, sweet milk, J obtained by fermentation, Not a buttermilk.

Bohoing with thrills throughout, the concluding game of the Brook- lyn-Pittsburgh series was held up for several minutes during the eighth in- ning while the displeased fans from the left field stands set down a bar- rage of bottles on Umpire Moran that sent him retreating to the cen- tre of the field. ‘With one out in the eighth inning, up to which juncture the Brooklyn Ing children—or—well, anythihg pleas- ant like that.
