    Yanks Wallop Giants 8-1 in Fifth Contest; Meusel
Only Giant to Get Safe Hit
Pep Is Gone From
Giants in Game
Meusel Only Man Who Can
Hit Bush in Fifth
Contest.
By THOMAS CT MMISKEY.
Yanked Stadium, New York, Oct. 14.
—The old snap and dash, the old chat
ter, was missing In the Giants’ play
today. As Joe Bush turned them back
and back, only Irish Meusel solving
his wizardry for the slim total of
three hits of the Giants, it became
more and more apparent. They re
mained buried under the Yanks' big
lead.
Y'ou could see it in the way they
went and came from the field, slow
ly, instead of running as they used
to do. They didn't bark and Jump
around at their positions. The cocki
ness so evident heretofore had given
way to listlessness. The Giants were
in a slump in spirits. The question
now is:
Will they snap out of it? They are
a great team, a team of class and
have fought the hardest In the
stormiest outlook.
It is likely that the Giants will get
a “dressing down." Perhaps some
friend of McGraw's will do it. There
are men who can work wonders with
a ball club. In 1921, after the Giants
had lost the first two games, they
got a "dressing.’’ We are not privi
leged to name the man, but they cer
tainly had “it” out. He told them
they looked as if they were yellow,
they were the classiest club in the
business. Then they won the next
two, lost the next, and won two more
for the world's championship.
The Giants need right now to havo
their spirits prodded, their spirit
lashed to the fighting fury.
The Yanks are hitting, fielding and
getting sweet revenge. They are full
of confidence. In fact the Yanks are
now behaving as the Giants did in
1921 and 1922, when they won.
There is all kinds of speculation ns
to the pitching choices tomorrow. Is
the frail Art Nchf, the Giants' ace,
ready after two days' rest to do his
best? Will Bill Byan, who held the
Yanks in the first game, after Wat
son had wavered, get the assignment?
Or will Watson get another chance?
Is Herb Pennock, who beat the
Giants Thursday and who stopped the
Giants' assault yesterday, when Bob
Shawkey got in trouble, to be sent
after victory for the Yanks? Or will
Waite Hoyt, knocked out in the first
game, get the assignment, in consid
eration of fine work done against the
Giants in the past, and Pennock held
for Tuesday, if need be?
The longer Nehf and Pennock rest,
the better they figure to be. It's
something for the managers to think
over. .

Bluffs High School
Loses Hard Game
_
Missouri Valley Saturday defeated
Abraham Lincoln high in a slow
game by a acore of 3 to 0. The Lin
coln team fell far short of the form
it displayed last Saturday against
Omaha Central. A lack of pep and
fight featured the general play of
Lincoln.
Lincoln was completely outplayed
by Missouri Valley during the first
quarter. Missouri Valley twice
forced their way inside the 10-yard
line, one through the uso of the
aerial method when they completed a
10 yard pass. The second chance
came through a poor punt byiWalsh.
but each time Lincoln braced and
gained possession of the pigskin on
downs. At the start of the second
quarter Lincoln pepped up and car
ried the fight to the Valley squad.
During this quarter the battle waged
between the 20-yard lines, with Lin
coin having a little the best of it.
In the third quarter Lincoln looked
like a sure winner. The Red and
Blue twice started marches for the
goal line, htft fumbles halted them
eaeli time when a Hcoro looked certain
.Vear the end of the quarter Missouri
took the ball and drove down the field
to the 25-yard line by the use of
passes and off-tackle drives.
Missouri Valley started off the last
period with a place kick from the 3T,
yard line. Lincoln fought hard dur
ing the rest of the game to score,
hut fumbles and intercepted passes
tuined whatever chance they had to
win. The end of the game came with
the hall in midfield and Missouri Val
ley had won a much deserved vic
tory.
Illini Trim Hutler, 21-7.
^Urbana, III., Ort. 14.—.Harold (Red)
(h inge, fleet University of Illinois
half bnck, ran through Rutler Col
lege's team for a pair of touchdowns
in fourth quarter yesterday to give
Illinois a 21 to 7 victory in the last
football game to be played on Illinois
field.
Illinois scored enrly In the first
quarter when Butler lost the hall on
downs on Its own 30-yard line arid
Crawford took the bnll over on a
series of line plunges, nnd for the
rest of the half It looked ns If thnt
might be the only score of the game.
Butler hope* rose high In the third
quarter when Mlddlesworth passed to
Blessing for a 25-yard gnltf and a
touchdown.
Grange, who was spnt In for Manor
at left half for llltnola, ran 22 yards
uround right end for a touchdown in
the final period.

More than 45,000 fans, the greatest
crowd that ever attended a Chicago
city series, saw the Sox beat the Cubs,
5 to 3. in the fourth game of the
series here today. The victory of
the Sox evened the series at two wins
each.
Both Grover Alexaxnder of the

man n finished the pitching assign
ments.
A home run by Earl bheeiy witn
Hooper on first base broke up the
game in the ninth inning.
Two runs in the opening inning
put the Americans off to a. strong
lead. Errors by Adams and Grant
ham paved the way to the tallies
which were driven over by hits by
Hooper, Bheel and McClellan.
In the third Sheely doubled and
was forced by Falk. Falk stole sec
ond and romped home on Knmm's
double with a third Sox run. It was
only by a good throw by Miller which
caught McClellan at the plate that
the Cuts halted the attack.
Then came the Cub fifth inning
and the three National league runs
that tied the score. Cvengros lost
control and walked three men, fill
ing the bases with two out. Adams
singled, scoring two runs and when
Cvengros started to pass Grantham,

ton in to pitch. Grantham doublet!,

his homer.

Long Mob Is the American league
side of the Meuael family, represented
in the National league by Irish, who
got the three bits that the Giants
made off Mullet Joe Mush this after
noon. That's keeping It In the family.
Mullet Joe is not ns bullety as In
other days, perhaps, but he held tho
<Hants in the hollow of bis greasy
Old glove today, while the Yankees
were smearing the divers deliveries of
the different Chant pitchers.
Mullet Joe now uses something be

ball years, and finds his physical
power Is waning, he puts Intelligence
Into his pitching—or he doesn't last.
In other years. Bullet Joe used to
throw the ball "past the batter,”
again lapsing into baseball language.
He was as speedy as they came. Now
he is on tho downslope of his base
ball career, with the years ahead of
him growing shorter. lie uses speed
awhile, then he uses something else
that's called "mixing 'em up.”
Ten years ago Bullet Joe. then In
his first year In the big league, bent
the Giants In hla first world series
game of 1913, tvhen he was with the
Athletics, whipping the great Tes
renu. the huge spltball pitcher of the
Giants.
Record Crowd Attends Game.
Tesreau has long since passed from
the big league. Some of the 62,917
fans who watched the game yester
day Raw Bullet Joe In that game 10
years ago, using nothing but amns
Ing speed. It made them feel young
again ns they watched Bullet Joe
turning hack the Giants Inning after
Inning. This was positively the
largest crowd that ever saw a Mg
league ball game. All the other
largest crowds are infringements.
There were 397 more paid admissions
than on Columbus day, the total be

gate," the old dream of baseball, Is
at hand.
Bush's three hit game against the
Giants goes Into the record book.
Bill James of the Braves heat the Ath

Brown of the Cubs also pitched s two

In James’ game tho Braves made
sevtn hits off Fiddle Blank, but the
final score was only 1 to 0.
The Yankees slugged the various
Giant pitchers safely every inning to
day safe the seventh and eighth
Bale Ituth didn't f tire much In the
hitting of his club, which seems to
Kiinu what d -pel Huggins' theory that
as Kuth goes so goes the Yankees
He gut one hit, walked once, was safe
on an error, struck out one* and
knocked a terrific fly.
\ anks May End Series Today.
If the Yanks ran win today on
the Polo Grounds the series Is over.
They will take the world's rhnmplnn
ship, four g-mies to two. The series
lelng four In seven. If there Is s
seventh game It will be played at
the Yankee field, which will aceom
modate more customers than the Polo

McGrow will probably send Arthur
N'ehf after the game tomorrow. Me
draw has practically exhausted his
pitching staff and Nahf Is his last
hope. Huggins, on the other hand,
can try tomorrow with Hoyt and still
have hla "ace," Pennock. In reserve.
The | me today v.is the first the
Yankees have won In their white uni

The Yankees say they can't hit on

Lose Hard Fought
Game With Aggies
Slippery, Muddy Field Again
Proves Downfall of
Hilltop
Clan.
ny RALPH WAGNER.
Aggie Wild, Manhattan, Kan., Oct.
14.—A short Creighton punt, a line
smash and a forward pass, all in the
dying minutes of the second quarter,
anil the Kansas Aggies won from
Creighton here yesterday, t to 0.
Playing on a muddy field, the Blue
and White of Creighton and the
Farmers of Kansas put up what old
timers around these parts stamp as
one of the best football games ever
played by a Kansas Aggies eleven
and its opponent.
Creighton got more glory out of
its defeat this afternoon than it re
ceived at Lawrence last Saturday.
Trotting on the playing field with the
reputation of being one of the strang
est teams In the Missouri Valley con
ference this year and with a veteran
backfleld that has played together
for three years, the Kansas Wildcats,
as they are called, looked like sure
winners over the Blue. They are
husky men and fast afoot. But—
When Creighton outplayed the
Farmers In the first quarter, and at
one time during the period advanced
the ball In the shadows of the Farm
ers' goal posts, only to lose this ad
vantage when the referee smacked a
15-yard penalty on their shoulders, the
Blue and White made the 5,000 spec
tators sit up and taku notice. Creigh
ton came to town classed as just a
practice game for tlio Wildcats. True,
they had held Kansas university to
a 6 to 0 score last Saturday, but they
were playing the University and not
the Farmers. So today the Aggia
fans and fannettes looked for a big
Kansas Aggie victory. They were
surprised to see 11 Blue gridsters
hold their husky and favorite Farm
ers for downs three times, once on
Creighton’s six-yard line and twico
on their 20-yard line.
Kansas Good at Passing.
Yes, Kansas can forward pass. It
was this method of attack that cost
Creighton the victory. Had It not
been for the pass In the second quar
ter of the game, the score might have
been 0 to 0. Only once did Ktinsas
make anything through the Creighton
line and that was in the final quar
ter, when Stark, the flash KansnaJ
backfield player ripped through the
Blue line. He fell to his knees.
Everyone thought he was down and
the ball dead. But all of a sudden
he leaped to his feet and reeled off
34 yards In the direction of the
Creighton goal line befnr# being
nailed to the earth. This run of
Stark's and the Kansas pass in the
second quarter were the only real
features of the 6 to 0 victory of the
Farmers over Creighton of Omaha,
In the last quarter, with the ball
on their own 33-yard line and In their
possession. Creighton started a for
ward passing attack that worked like
clock machinery. The Blue advanced
from their 33 yard line to Kansas' 38
yard line via the aerial route. They
could go no farther. They tried pass
after pass, but each time the man on
the receiving end of the leather
slipped, and finally the Aggies took
the hall on downs.
Creighton tried passes earlier In the
game, but were unsuccessful in their |
attempt. The slippery field handl j
rapped both teams, but it seemed that
when the Blue wanted to flip the
P'gskin through tho air a Creighton
player who was expected to complete
the pass slipped. 1 Kansas ruined,
Creighton passes the same as Crelgh
ton ruined Kansas passep.
Start Aerial Attack.
Soon after the start of the second
quarter tho Aggies started their for
ward passing. The far-famed Aggie
aerial attack started working.
After an exchange of punts MildiAt ‘
ter kicked from his own 47-yard line
to Creighton. Muhonev caught the j
hall on hie own 10-yard line and
started to return the oval. He slipped
and at once a pile of red-Jerseyed
athletes were on Ills hark. Fitxglb-i
bon skirted the end. He went three!
ynrds before being tackled. In their |
own territory. Creighton decided to!
kick. Fltzglhhons dropped bark to
kick the muddy ball out of d.ingi r. !
He booted the ball and It went out of
lounds on Creighton's 20-yard line.
It was the Aggies ball and was n sig j
nal of Kansas' sturt for a touch
down. At this stage of the game A I
A. Wilson and Stark, veteran back
field players, galloped out to take
their positions In the lineup. A cheer
went up ns they reported to the ref
eree. Wilsnh, Stark ami Schwartz
are tho Aggie aerial general*.
Kansas lined up facing Creighton
on tfio latter's 20-yard line. Schwarts
hit the center of the Blue human wall
end it gave way About a yard and a
half. Then Schwartz dropped hack
on the next play and flipped the hall
to Stark. It was a short pass and
put the Farmers on the > iglft -n 13
card line Another pass failed nnd on
their final down In which they had
the go.it line to make the Partners got
over anxious and Kansas was penal
ized f..r tiring off side. It was a
minor penalty and didn't seem to
make much difference with tho
crowd
Kansas then started to make up for
tost ground Stark reeled off the line
for two yards Another line play
netted Kansas mm- ground and® n
the Farmers were on the Creighton
five yard line Butcher lilt the ern
ter of the Blue line amt he made two
yards. Only three yards separated
the Farmers front a touchdown.
Schwarts dropped hark to pass He
flipped the pigskin with Ills south
paw mitt and It went light Into the
watting arms of Slink over the t il
I line, ti w is Kansas' only touchdow n
and the only time during the game
that the Farmers came n ar 'r.aliur
The kio fter touchdown fall it.ami
the acorn was fi to 0
It might I Interesting to note Unit
not once during the first two iiuui tot s
did the Kansas Fanners mike :i f si
down Tin y scored their lone si- re
without the aid of a fc si down, s me
thing not common In footlmll games
Tho first halt of the game ended
with the hall In Creighton's posses
sion on their own 21-yard line.
After an exchange of punts In the
third quarter,. Kansas received the
ball on Creighton's 32-yard line. The
Farmers hit the Creighton line and
skirted the ends; mixed In a forward
pass and were soon resting on the
Blue's 20-yard line. Another line
smash failed. Creighton was hold
ing. The Aggies tried three passes
and each pass failed, so the Blues
took the ball on their 20-yard line.
Just before the third quarter ended
Fltzglbbons kicked to the Aggies He
was booting against the wind and his
kick didn’t travel very far. The
Farmers grounded the ball on Creigh
ton’s 36-yard line as the third quar
ter ended.
Creighton took the ball but failed
to gain and Fltzgibbon kicked to the
Aggies. The Kansans threw over an
other aerial attack as sort of a dying
attempt to put over another touch
down, but Logan center, Intercepted
a pass on his own 37-yard line and
the game soon ended with the ball
In the Blue's possession.
Kaeh team had Its stars. The 22
men on the field played a good game.
But of all the Kansas grid stars who
bucked up against Creighton today.
Stark and Schwartz were the bright
lights; brighter than the rest on the
offensive and fully as good on the
defense. Stark's 34 yard run in the
third quarter and his forward pass
Ing was easily the feature of the
Farmers’ play.
The Creighton line held like a stone
wall. Very few Kansas gains were
made through the Blue front w'all.
Kean's catch of Fitzgibbon's pass In
the third quarter was good. The
Creighton end leaped into the air and
grabbed the oval from the waiting
arms of Kansas men.
Creighton played better in the sec
ond half than In the first The Blues
had more fight, as it is railed in
this rough and tumble game. The
entire Creighton back field. Mahoney,
Speicher, Fltzgibbon and Vechout
played a hangup game. especially
was this true of Fltzgibbon and Ma
honey. The former passed and ran
well. On a dry field he would have
gained much more ground. The team,
left tonight for Omaha.

was called bar k from Venter for the
play only after Michigan, getting the

lost yardage in two pile-driving at
tempts to puncture the adamant
Vanderbilt defense
It was a narrow margin of victory,
and Indicative of the equality on
which the teams battled so valiantly
bef t» 3 000 spectators. Both played
rrrfty football, the fumbling that
tended to mar the game being more
than offset by swift, dashing Inter

the linesmen on both sides was at top

Jarvis Is Peeved
Over Remarks
Says That Joel Is Jealous
Because His Papyrus
Is Not for Sale.
New York, Oct. 14—The following
statement was made public tonight by
the Jocky club:
"J. B. Joel, who had offered $200,
000 for Papyrus before the St. Eeger,
stakes, made no friends for himself
by the interview he gave out on the
International race prior to sailing yes
terday for England. In whicji he made
the statement that he was going home
because Papyrus would be unfit to
race against Zev In that event."
On being shown Joel's statement,
Basil Jarvis, who trains Papyrus,
said:
"My horse is all right and will be
ready to race. Joel phoned me some,
time ago that he was In this countiy
on business and would not be able to
stay for the race. I Bhall see Mr.
Joel when I go home.
"Since my arrival here I have tried
to give everybody a chance to see
Papyrus and many persons have come
both morning and afternoon daily.
As the day of the race approaches,
however, I must ask the public, who
have known such friendly interest, to
come to the course in the morning
when the horse is on the track. Be
ginning today 1 shall haw to decline
to show the horse at 4:30 o'clock, as
heretofore. This Is being done in the
interest of Papyrus, as well as of Mr.
Irish, the owners and mys»if, as we
want to be ready on Saturday and
there is a lot to do between now and
then. I am sure the Amreican pub
lic will understand and absolve me of
any dishonesty.
Informed of Joel's statement. Major
August Belmont, chairman of the
Jockey club, declared that Papyrus
was In excellent condition and inti
mated that the British turfman might
have been .nfluenced by his disap
pointment over the refusal of his of
fer to purchase the animal.
"Papyrus Jarred bis ankle last Tues
day, but demonstrated in workouts
Thursday and again this morning
that he had practically recovered
from all effects of this slight injury,
caused by the hardness of the Bel
mont park track,” said Major Bel
mont .
"My Information is that Papyrus is
in .satisfactory shape ar.d will race
Zev next Saturday."
Basil Jarvis, trainer of Papyrus,
while acknowledg.ng the famous racer
still displayed an aversion for the
hard tracks of America, asserted
Joel's statement that the race prob
ably would be postponed or cancelled
was "all poppycock.
"As long as the horse keeps fit,
he'll run. Mr. Jarvis asserted. "The
public knows the whole thing. He's
had workouts that showed his condi
tion and displayed real speed, but
everybody knows he doesn't like this
hard track. How far that will affect
him, I don't know. He had a nice
feallop this morning—a mile and a
half. I didn't time him but I was
told his form w in go. d."
Unofficially Papyrus was clocked
at 2:39 3-5 t< r a mile and a half,
wh ch he did under wraps.
Zev also worked out in the fog Sam ;
Hildreth and other trainers were re
ported to have clocked the American
animal in a half mile spin at -IS sec
onds.

Carroll Pros Are
\ ictcrs in Game
Carroll, la., Oct. 14.—The fast Car
rol! professional football team de
feated the Atlantic team here this
afternoon, 25 to 0. The Atlantic
teem Is the same as It has been for
the last five years. Both team* are
composed of former college and high
school football stars.
The game yesterday was featured
by the play* of the Carroll team. The
first touchdown was made by I.owry
after a successful forward pass. Ash
haugh to Lowry, and a run of more
than S'* yards. The second touch
down Waldron made after hr- slipped
around the Atlantic’s left end and ran
30 yards.
Tyron recovered a blocked punt and
raced across the goal line for the third
tally. The goal kicked on this#score
was the only one made during the
entire gam- The fcrjytk touchdown
came when Heath intercepted a for
ward pass and carried it down the
field.
Atlantic, usually a strong team,
failed to get smarted. Their playing
was not up to standard and none of
the men seemed to have their heart
in the game.
The Carroll team Is to play the
Olymi ies a* League pack nest Sun
day. The game promises to be good
with the Carroll/ aggregation fresh
from a victory and the Olympics one
of the stronges* teams they have y* t
