Shawkey, most likely, will now be one of the big hurlers for the Yanks in the World's Series, His perform- ance yesterday, which showed indu- bitably that he is fit, and the week of rest which he will get before those Baines start, assure him a place In the Yanks’ battery of pitchers for the big doings. He gave the Athletics but four hits and only one of them was a clean one. It was a single to left by Brazill in the seventh, in which inning, how- ever, as in five of the six preceding, the Mack men were not able to get a man on second. Only once aid the Athletics get a man on third. Witt reached that hag in the eighth after Fewster dropped his high fly in short left. He had taken second on a scratch hit to third by Dykes and third on a fly to Miller by Perkins. Then, with two out, Bub steadied and forced Welch to ground weakly to Ward. Harris was speedy but shaky from the start when, also, the Yanks got the first “break.” Dykes gobbled Pipp's grounder in the e.cond. Wally took second on Ward's sacrifice. Callo- way to Brazil, and came home on Mike McNally'’s triple to centre. Schang walked and Shawkey helped win his own game by getting a singlo over Dyke's head and scoring Me- Nally. Eimer Miller, who was batting in Ruth's place, led the third with a triple to right.. He came home on Meusel’s single to left. The two final scores were obtained in the seventh when, with Fewster on second, which he had stolen, Peckin- paugh lifted the only home run of the game into the left field bleachers. It ts problematical whom Huggine will work to-day Mays, Hoyt, Coll n. and Quinn were gently warming uy throughout most of the contest. The chances are that Hoyt will be the choice, but it would be strategic now to work Collins or Quinn and have Hoyt for the world’s series.

By Vincent Treanor. \ uae favorites rolled home at Aqueduct yesterday, evening up in a way, the slaughter of Wednesday, so the players were more or less even with the layers when Emotion headed out Dolores in the last race through the fog. Fator rode three of the choices, and as he had only four mounts he wound up with a decent batting average. The appearance of Fator these days means in nine cases out of ten the shortening of prices against horses he tides, Not so long ago it was Sande who used to make even money chances out of 2 to 1 shots, but sande has not been getting the choicest of horses since the Rancocas stable ran into its present slump, Sande can’t ride at much below 114 pounds, while Fator can accept mounts from 104 pounds up, which gives him a greater selec- tion. Fator ls a very good jockey on bad horses. His presence in the saddle is not always sufficient justifi- cation for the odds quoted against some of his mounts. For instance, the price against Chateau Thierry, 13 to 20, was ridiculously short before post time. But she proved herself a legiti- mate choice as the race happened to be run. Beaten in three of her last four starts, the players had a right to expect. something more than the opening 7 to 10. They didn't get it, and calmly accepted whatever was offered, as they always do. The layers apparently knew their business when they held the Sanford mare so short, for she ran as if she outclaseed her company. Leaving the post last, she had considerable trouble in the early part of the race getting away ftom Escarpolette. As Fator went to the whip at the far turn, the crowd groaned. Another cholce gone wrong they figured. His task seemec next to hopeless, teau lost t Thierry began to make ne, and although on p for the out side gained steadily on Elected II. and te was, Good Rye. — It took the stretch show just how good Chateau for when straightened out she o: hauled the pacemakers and came away earily. Fator rode the other two choices in a manner to give his backers little cause for worry. He took Mercury in the third and made him stay there, and on Emotion he was in front from the sixteenth pole home. Before that the race couldn't be ween in the heavy haze that enshrouded the entire track Few knew the horses were off unt)! they came out of the fog like spectres inside the final eighth of a mile, Sanfy MoNaughton had a field day. He beat the card trom his own Night Bont to Emotion, and natur- ally was full of glee when the day's doing were over, Bandy gave the layers guite a trimming on Night Boat, while nearly everybody elar was falling for the favorite at the |ridioulous price of 7 to 5.

As a yearling he cut his leg badly in a barbed-wired fence and looked hopeless as a racing prospect, Sandy took a chance and bought him. The injury responded ty careful treatment and now, al- thoguh the colt has an unsightly lock, he is good enough to beat such favorites as Rebuke, A report that Rebuke had out- worked Mustard Seed was probably responsible for his being favorite in the opening dash. He had worked fairly wel! at that and will race bet- ter at the next asking. He was away very badly from the post and in tne run through the stretch on the rail was impeded more than seemed ne- cessary by McAtee on Attoo, Lady Emeline was well meant yes- terday and had an unusual amount of early speed, All Penman had to do with her was to sit still and wait for Dark Hill to stop in front of him. The latter doesn't like to go more than a mile and an eighth any time. Whenever he goes farther there are bad horses behind him. LIVE WIRES] By Neal R.

OUT OF IT, THANKS TOLITLE DICK” Cleveland Must Win Three While Yanks Lose Three to Capture Flag. CHICAGO, Sept. 30.—With “Little Dick" Kerr pitching a masterly game, Chicago virutally ruined Cleveland's chances in the American League pen- nant race by shutting out the world’s champions by a score of 5 to 0 in the first game of the final four-game serles. Cleveland, to beat New York in the scramble for the flag, must now win the three remaining games, while the Yankees lose their remaining three. Kerr celebrated a day set aside in his honor by holding Cleveland to six hits, and with the ald of sensational fleld- ing, not allow a Cleveland player to pass second base. The Indians threat- ened in the fourth, but Kerr started a double play which shattered thelr hopes. After the White Sox scored two runs in the first inning, Cleveland played a listless game. In’ the opening frame Johnson led off with a single and took Second on Strunk's out. After Collf had filed to Evans, Hooper drove a sin- gle to centre. scoring Johnson, Hooper taking second on the throw’ to the plate. Sheely followed with another siugle over second, scoring Hooper, With runners on first and second tn the second inning and two out, Tris Speaker sent Stephenson up to bat for Snthoron, but to no avail.
