" Garry Herrmann Is offering his
'" loyal following in Cincinnati. In
! the opinion of those who claim to
"be able to read the psychic reflexes
of diamond athletes, that aviator
t' will lead a lonesome life if he waits
" for J. Ring.
Looks Like Snow Storm.
' The day had been hot up to the
very -moment that the announcer,
' having parked himself on second
base, announced with marked for
l malitv. that Mr. Nallin. Mr. Quie-
. ley, Mr. Evans and Mr. Rigler would
do the umpiring and a vendor was
' shouting that "you couldn't tell the
,. umpires witnout a program, dui
t that' moment, as if some one h
C nnened an ice box. there was a cold
blast which remained throughout
the rest of the day and spectators

expectation, and tnere was a notice

singled to short left. Daubert, how-
ver hi intn a Honhle nlav and RlS-
berg went out and played left field
long enougn to gatner in uron s
exaggerated pop.
One-Two-Three in Sox Half.
It was one-two-three in the Sox
half also, with Ring showing a world
of speed which kept the locals pop
ing them up so fast that it looked
dangerous for the aviator, who rarely
. iiirnt far frnm the field. Liebold.
first up for the Sox, sent up a high
one wnich drifted in the breeze so
that Daubert was kept hopping
backward for some time before he
grabbed it. Collins popped up to
Rath, while Duncan raced back and
gathered in Weaver's .long fly in
brilliant fashion.
Three Reds Fly Out.
' In the second, Cicotte's twisters
could not be kept on the ground,
Roush, Duncan and Kopf flying out
in order. In their half the Sox
appeared more threatening than at
' any other period. Jackson, who re
gards hairpins as the ultimate in
bringing good luck, carried four
new ones as he came to bat, and
the hairpins delivered a clean dou
ble to center. Felsch sent him to
third by the sacrificial route, and
the stands went wild with delight.
Gandil, however, retired on a fly to
Groh. Then Ring did one of two
things he either became wild, or
played a bit of the most daring
strategy, for he walked both Ris
berg and Schalk, filling the bases.
This brought Cicotte to the plate.
The crowd generally commented
that it was his opportunity to win
his own game, but his swing caught
the ball far up the handle and he
was out at first. Thus dissolved one
of the locals' two chances to score.
Another Opportunity Comes.
The next, opportunity came in the

right along the foul line, but Neale
by a magnificent run captured it
with a catch which was sheer ban-
.dtry. Collins was hit by the pitch
er and tore down to second, when
Weaver grounded out to Daubert
unassisted. Jackson hit to Rath,
but his hairpins were still working
and he camped on first while Rath

hurried throw, Collins meanwhile
reaching third. Felsch however
was unable to produce a h.it and
another local hope was interred.
The Sox never threatened again.
Groh made a wonderful stop of
Collins' hard-hit ball and Liebold
was run down between second and
third. Weaver's out ended the
rally. Thereafter Ring held the
" game in the palm of his hand, with
his fingers crossed. He allowed
one more hit in the sixth, a base on
balls in the seventh, another hit in
the eighth and his last pass in the
'ninth, but these outcroppings lacked
that relationship with their kind
necessary to produce runs and nev
er gave the Reds a moment's worry.
Win in Fifth Inning.
The story of the Red victory be
longs to the fifth inning alone. In
. no other" round did they get a run
ner past first. Sharp fielding,- Ci
cotte s sterling pitching and two
sharp double plays tell the story of
the innings other than the fifth.
Rousch started this momentous
-round by dumping the ball in front
of the plate, and was out at first on
a hair line decision. Duncan bounced
an awkward one toward Weaver and
Cicotte grabbed it, but in his haste
threw a fathom or so over Gandil's
head. Thaf started the debacle.
Schalk, who gets into nearly every
play, retrieved the ball, but Duncan
was safe on second The timeliness
of He Reds' hitting, in evidence in
al of the games which they hive
won, was again in evidence. Koof
Singled to- short left, Jackson taking
the ball on the bound as he ran
" forward. Duncan was tearing for the
plate. Jackson threw perfectly for
the plate and it looked like a cer
tain out when Cicotte, whose nerves
by reason of his previous error,
seemed out for an altitude record,
interposed his mit, evidently to
make a play onKopf, and deflected
the ball. Duncan counted and Kopf
established himself on third. Neale
- then doubled just out of reach of
Jackson, scoring Kopf. Wingo and
Ring grounded out, ending the in
ning and the scoring.

Though Cicotte Loses,
; Pitched Steady Ball.
Chicago, Oct. 4. Even though
Eddie Cicotte was the losing pitcher
in today's world series contest, the
analysis of balls and strikes showed
him far steadier than Jimmie Ring,
his successful Cincinnati opponent.
Cicotte put over 33 strikes, one more
than Ring, and 26 of his offerings
were hit to fair territory, whereas
29 of Ring's were shot there by the
home batsmen.
In called balls, moreover, Cicotte
was away ahead. Umpire Nallin
thought Eddie missed the plate 27
times, but he picked 44 of Ring's bad
ones. Four of these were given
purposely to Schalk in the second
inning. In addition Ring gave two
other passes, while Cicotte issued
none. Each pitcher was credited
with two strikeouts. Two hit bats
men went on the wrong side of
Ring's ledger. ThatRing was de
pending upon his fast ball to pull
him out of ticklish situations was
evident from the number of popups
which the Chicago players hit. bix
teen times they hit the ball in the
air to fair territory and four times
to foul. Ten of the Cincinnati at
tempts off Cicotte went over the in
field and eight sailed into foul terri
tory,, half of these latter going over
the stand. The White Sox cut the
ball along the ground 13 times, while
Cincinnati's grounders numbered
three more.
Cicotte's best innings were the
eisrhth and ninth, in each of which he
pitched only seven times. His worst
was the fifth, when he hurled 18
times and made his two fielding er
rors. '
Ring's best round was the fourth,
when three strikes, one ball, two
flies and one foul over the stand
disposed of Chicago. His worst was
the second inning, when he threw
13 balls and six strikes and was
found for two 'flies, two grounders
and a foul. He also had to do a
lot of pitching in the eighth, but 13
of his 20 offerings were over the
plate in that session.
Due lareelv to those two bad in
nings, Ring's total pitches were 111,
higher than Cicotte s by 17.

INCINNATI is one big asylum with the keepers acting just like the
patients. The town is nuts with base ball. They ought to label the
burg Cincinutt.
Everybody is eating, sleeping and drinking base ball. This is the
first year they haven't smelled it. j j
The town's premier astronomer spent last night slanting at the moon
to see whether it had a Spalding label on it. Street car conductors
throw collected nickles into the air and catch 'em like outfielders. If the
jit stays on the bellrope, it belongs to the company. Motorman gets an
assist on the play. - '
Reuther is the municipal pet. Crowds gave liim money, cigars and
receipes for making red eye out of gasoline and camphor balls. When
a Cincinnat fan is right, you can have anything he's got. By the time
the series is ended, Reuther should have a stable of electric pianos,
seven left-footed shoe trees and all th straw hats he can carry.
Impossible to have horned a needle into the ball park unless you
folded it up. Forty thousand birds chirped 'emselves bewlegged. Every
body hoarse and buying cough drops. Smith Brothers' whiskers will sprout
another foot when they hear the glad news.
Mayor of Cincinutty breathed much looser when he piped the score.
Since Omaha started the fad, a mayor's" life ain't worth a beer check.
If a guy has to be hung, the crowd ought touse a rubber rope. Matches
his collar and doesn't hurt anybody.
Got a good crowd without playing a double-header.
Guy came on here from Washington, D. C, to see what a world
series is like. Had heard about 'em. Had also heard about the dinousarus.
Eddie Collins didn't do much, but he had lots of company.
Old Jake Daubert, with nine base ball toes in the grave and the
other one amputated, collected three singles and scored a run in the first
game. The guy with the wheel chair ain't caught Jake yet.
If the grouches were humps, the Chicago bunch would all be camels.
Sherwood Magee watched the boys working for him. . He doesn't play,
but the kitty news for him; too.
After catching the union number of flies, Roush joined the scabs
arid caught six more eight in all. He was entitled to supper.
Cincinnutty gamblers are betting eight to five, Bronx style. They
want even money if they have to put the money up. ,
Snapshots of Game.
Chicago. Oct. 4. The fifth game
of the series is scheduled for Com-
iskev nark tomorrow. Then the
teams will return to Cincinnati for
the sixth contest Monday. . The
seventh game, if necessary, will be
played in Cincinnati Tuesday.
Although a score of arrests were
made at the base ball park and in
hotel lobbies, ticket speculators
continued to do a thriving business.
Box seats for today's game and the
contest tomorrow sold as high as
$40. Agents for the internal reve
nue department were . stationed in
the cfowd outside of the -park
watching for scalpers. The crowd
of 34,363 persons filled every inch
of standing room in the park. Thou
sands were turned away. The to
tal attendance for the four games
was 123,290. The attendance for
the two Chicago games was 63,489,
while 59,801 was the attendance for
the first two Cincinnati games.
Morris Rath, the Reds' second
baseman, played a sparkling game.
With the bases filled in the second
inning? Rath scooped up Cicotte's
grounder, retiring the side. - Then
in the eighth, Rath went to the left
field foul line for Weaver's fly.
"Kid" Gleason. manager of the
Sox, wearing his cap on the side of
his head, was in evidence on third
base coaching line. Moran yelled
instructions to the Reds from the
first base coaching line.
Schalk. the Sox catcher, brought
the crowd to its feet when he picked
Groh s foul fly out of a field box.
The crowd stood no and Stretched
at the start of the "lucky" seventh,
but the yells for Sox runs were fruit
less. Schalk, the first up, got on
base as a result of being hit, but his
mates couldn't advance him.
When the eighth coened the"
crowd in the left field bleachers
started a miniature "snowstorm" by
tearing programs into bits and scat
tering the pieces to the wind, which
earned them over the playing field.
Nebraska Loses Game
To Iowa University

great driving power, began to tell
oh the Huskers. Their stone wall
defense gradually gave in. During
the second quarter the Iowans, us
ing A. Devine and Captain Lohman
on line smashes and. end runs, got
within striking distance.
A double fumble by Iowa was fi
nally recovered by the Hawks. It
was first down on the Husker three
yard line. Here Coach Schulte sent
in Hubka for Wilder. The latter
took Young's place at guard, Young
going out. ThSi presence of the Bo
hemian lent a fervid vitality to the
line and it repeatedly held against
the Iowa attack. A penalty, five
yards for offside, however, suffered
to give the lads their third down of
the game, and this on the Nebraska
one-yard line. It took three line
bucks tp score. No goal was kicked.
Score: Iowa, 13; Nebraska, 0.
Earlier in the game Charleton,
the Iowa star end, had been taken
out. Subs on the Nebraska side be
came frequent. The Nebraska men
tor sent Stan Henry in twice to
stem the tide. But Iowa hammered
and kicked at will. Almost before
it was known, A. Devine booted a
neat drop kick from Nebraska's 23
yard line in the second quarter.
Score first half: Iowa, 16; Nebras
ka, 0.
Substitutions Frequent.
The second half began with a
rush by Nebraska. Captain Dobson
pulled out early in the second peri
od, having been dazed by a smash
up in a scrimmage, returned leading
his troopers.
Iowa played for time. The score,
16 to 0, was neatly tucked away and
little cared Howard Jones whether
additions were possible.
Rain fell heavily in the third
period. The crowd made a center
rush for the gate while those on the
students' bleachers crowded pell
mell into the press stand. Thevrain
made the play sluggish, the punting
duel that took up a large part of the
time never reaching more than 30
yards.
Nebraska staged a strong come
back in the final period. Apparent
ly word had been sent out to score
at all costs, for a most brilliant ar
ray of forward passes came into
being. Two of six were completed
in less than 10 minutes. The mud
interfered with the possibilities of
a getaway. Time and again Kellog
and Hubka were downed in their
tracks after completing the circuit.
The final score came late. A. De

and the rain having let up (another
omen) kicked 45 yards to Nebras
ka's 10-yard line. The Nebraska

WILLIAMS LIKELY
TO PITCH FOR SOX
IN TODAY'S GAME
esssssssssssssB v
Ruether Will Probably Oppose
Hinh-Gleason Not Appar
ently As Yet Downhearted.
Chicago, Oct. 4. Walter Ruether,
who "pitched Cincinnati to a 9 to 1
victory in the first game of the se
ries ,and "Lefty" Williams, the Sox
southpaw, probably will be the op
posing pitchers in the fifth game of
the series tomorrow, it was indi
cated tonight in statements by Man
agers Gleason and Moran. Wil
liams faced the Red Legs in the sec
ond game at Cincinnati, losing 4 to 2.
"With three victories to our cred
it, nothing will stop the Reds now
from winning the world's champion
ship," said Manager Moran tonight.
"We have beaten Cicotte twice and
will beat Williams tomorrow if Glea
son decides to pitch him."
"Our pitching staff is vastly su
perior.to the Sox. We have proved
it. Ring pitched a remarkable game
today and got himself out of a tight
hole nicely in the second, after be
ing forced to pass Schalk. The
slightest loss of judgment in that
inning would have meant a beating
for us. He kept the Sox's three
hits scattered, and at no time, with
the exception of the second, was
he in danger.
"I may start Ruether back at the
Sox tomorrow, but have two or
three others to fall back tn if Rue
ther isn't Tight."
"That certainly was a tough game
for Cicotte to lose," said Manager
Gleason. "He was so set upon win
ning that he was a bundle of nerves.
If he had allowed Duncan's 'ground
er to ko to Weaver there might be
a different tale to tell tonight. That
put the Reds in a position to score.
Mijrphys and Armours Open
Championship Series Today
Western Amateur Champions and Omaha's Repre
sentative Semi-Pro Ball Club Start "Games for
Omaha City Base Ball Title at Rourke Park.
BY WILLIAM O. BLOZIES.
Considerable interest is centered
in the championship series between
the Murphy-Did-Its, class A city
champs and western amateur base
ball champions, and the Armours,
Omaha's crack semi-pro warriors,
which will be inaugurated this
afternoon at i Rourke park, when
these two teams engage in a double
header. The opening contest today will
start promptly at 2 o'clock, and if
weather conditions are favorable,
one of the largest crowds that has
yet attended the games at Rourke
park is expected to be on deck and
cheer the individual favorites.
Local fans have long hoped for
a game between these two tams,
since they are evenly matched and
each claims to be superior to the
other. " , 1
According to present plans, which
were completed Friday, a seven
game series will be played to de
termine the championship. It is ex
pected to play another double
header, next Sunday, -two more
games on Sunday, October 19, and
the seventh and final game, if neces
sary, on Sunday, October 26.
Both Teams Confident.
However, followers of both teams
predict that the series will not go
the limit of seven games, but that
their favorite will make it four
straight. On the eve of the con
tests both managers and teams are
confident that they will 'be vic
torious, although they are not pre
dicting any walk-away affair.
Both the western champs and the
Packers have during the season
played remarkable ball, the Mtir
phys not losing a single game in the.
Greater Omaha league, ot which
they won the championship, and but
a few games during the season,
which included out-of-town contests
and the games played on their east
ern trip.
The Armours have met a number
of crack semi-pro warriors, many of
whom have played professional ball,
and hav given their opponents
some hard tangles. They have a
long string of victories to their
credit.
Fans' Interest Keen.
It is understood that a large dele
gation of out-of-town base ball
"bugs" will be in attendance at the
double-header today, since both the
Murphys and Armours are well
known throughout Nebraska and
Iowa and have a large following in
the nearby towns.
Omaha fans will also turn out in
full force to witness the games, as
the fans are all anxious to see these
teams .perform. v
Hay and Graves to Pitch.
Manager Lawler announced last
night thaf "Butch" Hay, the old
stand-by, will heave them over' the
rubber fcr the Western champs in
the opening contest, Harry Williams,
former catcher for the Armours, do
ing ths receiving. It was announced
by Manager Otto Williams that
Andy Graves, the veteran of amateur
base ball, who has been the Packers'
best bet this season, as in former
years, will pitch for the semi-pros.
It was announced that either Pete
McGu.re or Everett, with the former
most like'y, will hurl for the Mur
phys ;n the second game, while
Dyck no doubt will be Manager
Williams' choice in the second
battle. v
The score by innings of the
world's scries game will be shown
a' the scoreboard.

Chicago, Oct. 4. Cincinnati tied
