i ' geen RR APRN YANKEE Ne, Oe een HUGMEN PLAYING OFF FAMOUS “STALLING” GAME Bargain Day Bill With Which Yankees Open Western Trip Only Double Bill Scheduled on Trip. By Bozeman Bulger. CHICAGO, Tl, Sept. 18.---The Yanks artived on hostile grounds this morning all sharpened up and ready. They found Chicago rightly amartly worked up, frankly anxious to see our champions take two on the chin their first day out ‘The double-header {mpending at this moment Is regarded by the local White Sox customers as Just retribu tion for the stalling strategy of the Yanks on their last visit when they saved themselves a licking by run- ning thelr fifth inning Into a shower Practically all the shoestrings on the club were broken that day and it looked like it would take all day to get ‘em tied up The Chicago fel lows protested this method of saving @ ball game and Ban Johnson, tr great indignation, ordered that the combat be refought. Of course, it would have had to be played over anyway, but it afforded! a chance for Ban to give out a public statement denouncing our noble athletes on be half of the common people. He alse fined Miller Huggins, Everett Scott ant Meusel $100 apiece, which ts what really counted. It was a thrust Into the vital organs. Anyway the Yanks and White Sox renew the famous shoestring tyine contest this afternoon, In addition to playing a regular game, both being visible for the price of one admis- sion. This ts the only double-header to be staged on the trip and it's just as well to get rid of it tn our opening assault on the West Accoriing to his five-ace schedule Manager Huggins will pitch Waite Hoyt and Sam Jones to-day and thinks they will be able to handle the matter satisfactorily. Of late the baseball business has been going # good for the Yanks the pitching staff fs able to run on regular schedule Untess some hurler goes head-on into serious trouble, it is unlikely that any pitcher will get a chance other than the five aces—May, Jones, Shawkey, Bush and Hoyt. Over at Akron yesterday, where the Yanks stopped off for a little bat- ting practice and much adulation by the Boy Scouts, Huggins took great care to exhibit left handers only These cockeys, as our athletes refer to southpaws, are Lefty ‘Q'Doul and Lefty Dearmon, So far Hnoggins has been unable to develop a part- side finger for his regular staff, but they come in mighty handy as part of the menagerie in strange towns ‘They both did well. Lefty Dearmon, by the way, is a newcomer and Is also one of our native sons. He comes from White Plains and was considerably concerned last night on the train about the home folks know- ing that he had been in a pastime. “T hope the editor will see to It."

Pirates oi? 15 ne of the nineteen rn National Leaguers cancelled at the last moment and the Yanks had to play a team made up of semi-pro stars from the several automobile tire factories. One of these young men, a pitcher by trade, struck out Babe Ruth. At the tire works he is now a prominent figure to be pointed to visitors. The paper even gave him a big headline and a photograph This little workout at Akron gave the Athletes something to laugh about and they hit Chicago with fine morale and in the pink. In fact, the Yanks are In the best possible shape that any ball club could hope to be. It is the first time in twenty years that your deponent has ever seen a contending big league team start on thelr last trip with not a man In- jured, sick or out of perfect physical condition. ‘There is not even a tired arm among the regular pitchers, let alone a flipper that ia sore. ‘The only thing that can lick the Yanks now Is a better ball club As there are no better ball clibs in the American League the logical concluston is that New York ought to win the pennant ‘The only thing possibly wrong with that conclusion is that baseball is not a logical pastime, If so, why did the Red Sox lick the Yanks twice In # double-header just after the Yanks had pasted the Browns three times in a row? The players themselves ap- pear to have little concern about the matter. They are perfectly confident of winning ‘They can see no reason for not being confident Nearly all of them discussed the matter on the train coming over and the general belief was that the race would be over by the end of the wee They expect more trouble at Chicago than at St. Louls, but count on cleaning up at both places. That, however, as our conservative editors announce at times, Is merely a presentation of thelr views and does not mean that we colnelde with them Many expatriated New Yorkers, who are out here to grow up with the country, were at the hotel to meet the Yanks this morning and to tell them how badly they were looked upon by provincial people who did not understand them, There are no pop bottle throwers of note in this town, as the range Is too long Is Confident Staff Will Brace ing are the records of the New York pitchers Won, Lost.
