FIRE DOES NOT HINDER PLANS nrv he Omaha T" 1 1111 BOSTON, Sept. 18.-Tht Boston Red Box today strength ned their claim to American league leadership by winning from the Detroit Titters a sensational twelve-Inning game. Although a content of only one run. It vena replete with sit uations that celled out the best tactics of offensive and defensive of both tetumi and Included some remarkable fielding. With Its setting In a crowd of 87,628 per sons, wro fringed the field of fray, the gnme whs considered one of the most memorable ever played. In their effort to pull down the leading Hed Pox team,, the Tigers carried a powerful offensive almost around the 4scs. , But time after time Its threats were thwarted by a phenomenal defense. During the early part of the game, the play was for the most part In the Inner field, but later the balls were sent speed ing up to the standing crowds, making It necessary for Speaker on one occasion to shoulder his way through the throng to catch Oobb's hard hit ball. Hooper was almost on the toes of the crowd In the next inning, the tenth, when he pulled down Crawford's drive. IolIe rinr Feature. Two double plays, brilliantly executed, were features of the game. One, by the members of the Ietroit Infield, removed an advantage gained by Boston, when Barry doubled Into the crowd. Another came shortly after Detroit hod placed a nan on every base without an out. Cobb was emoved on a force play at the plate. Then Toung lilt to Gainer, and while the Detroit base runners floundered about, litem lly In one another's way, Veaeh was caught at home and Crawford at third. , By hits and an Intended pass, Boston also filled the bases In the twelfth and Manager Carrigan, taking the pinch hit ter's burden upon himself, rapped to Bush. With one already out, the little shortstop tried to start another dauble play, but Young dropped the ball and Lewis raced home with the long sought run. The pitching by Shore and Coveleskle wtui of a finished order and both ap peared to improve as the contest length ened. . Ilnjal Hooters at Hand. Over 35,000 people passed through the gates, which later shut out several thou sand otheis. The "Uoyal Rooters" re turned to the organised support of their pennant favorite Red Sox, with a band that sounded again the familiar strain of "Tessle." The Boston battery was Shore and Cady, and that for the Tigers Covelesklo and Stanage. Ground rules, which limited a hit Into the encroaching crowd to two bases, were declared. Lively fielding marked the opening In ning. After Shore had struck out Bueii, the first Detroit batter, Gardner extended himself to catch a speeding liner off VlU's bat Cobb was passed, but Shore's alertness, and the skill of Gainer and Barry caught .the famous Tiger off first base, With one 6ut In Boston's half, Coveles kle passed Scott and Speaker. Bush rushed almost back of third base to cheok Gainer's orack and threw out Scott at third. A moment later Stallage's ac curate throw nipped Bpeaker'a attempted teal. A Cobb Out on Rounder. The Detrolts threatened to aeore In the third. HJU by Ooveleskle and Vltt re sulted in placing Bush at third base and Vltt on first, with two out. and Cobb at bat. Cobb's beat effort, however, was a bounder to the pitcher, on which he was retired easily. Ooveleskle regained his control and Boston went oat in order In their part of the third Inning. Sharp fielding by Barry and Soott put Detroit out In the same way In the fourth. Gainer made the first hit off Covel eskie's delivery in the fourth. A pass to Gardner put two men on bases, but Bush took Barrys grounder for the third out. There was no break In the order of the Red Sox going In the fifth. In Detroit's half of this Inning a double play, Gard ner to Barry to Gainer, nullified the ef fect of Young's hit Lucky Seventh is Unlucky. The pitchers seemed to Improve as the game went on, without runs and with few hits. Scott singled almost into the left field crowd in the sixth, but was caught off first base on a throw from Stanage. In the "lucky seventh" Lewis started wtih a hit Vltt made a sensa tional catch of Gardner's toul attempt to bunt. Barry's slow Infield out sent Lewis to second, rttcher Coveleskle afc tcmpted to pass Cady, but the big catcher reached put and hit the ball, only to have it Intercepted by Young for the last out of the Inning. Two of the threo Detroit batsmen were retired on strikes In the eighth. Breaks seemed certain In the eighth and In the ninth. Scott went to second on Bush's poor throw in Boston's half but could not be advanced. With one out In the ninth, Vltt tracked out a single. Cobb came to bat deter mined and the ball sped off his bat Into the crowd in center field, among whom Speaker broke bis way to make a le markable catch. Vltt was forced at second base for the third .out. Lewis singled In Boston's half of the ninth,' but Coveleskle, who had previously struck out Gainer, also fanned Oardner and Lewis a moment later was thrown r it trying to steal second. In the tenth Hooper went to the edge of the crowd to check the Tight of a drive from Crjw ford's bat Not m Break In Eleventh. The eleventh passed without a break In the deadlock. Detroit's outs were all on sharp infield plays, between which waa a single tiase on balls, whloh did not constitute a scoring threat After Hooper and Soott had gone out on high files. Speaker singled, but Gainer also raised the ball to Cobb. Detroit filled the bases with none oet in the twelfth, but Boston made the sit uation the occasion for a sharp fielding setback, which retired the aide without coring. Oobl- ad doubled by lifting the boll Into the lit field crowd. Veac was safe on Shore's poor throw. Craw ford waa purposely passed. The bases were full when Kavanaugh was called upon as a pinch hitter, bnt Soott scooped hit rap and threw to catch Cobb at the plate On the next play Young hit to Gainer and a double play. Gainer to Cady to Gardner to Scott and again to Gardner, retired the side. Boston started with the first ' man up In the twelfth with a vigorous offensive. Lewis hit safely. Gardner also singled. Burry sacrificed, advancing . both run ners. Cady waa purposely passed and I (Continued on Page Two, Column One.) 5 ' A i George 3oti RESTA MAKES NEW TEN-MILE RECORD Italian Wonder Sets Pace at Sheeps head Bay Auto Speed way.
