Oct. 19 SplaL) With Connie Mack's American Uitu Cham pinna two ramea to the rood and Frank Chanea's National Laaaru topllners aa many conteata to the bad. tha scene of the worlds championship at rug la Mfts tomorrow from rhlladalphla to Chicago. There) Is much significance to b attached to the fact for It mar man an trtnlnc-up of tha accounts between tha two dubs. What name la to bo emblazoned oa tha world's pennant at tha end of tha aeries will depend largely upon tha outcome, of tomorrow's game. Tha Cubs need tha decision and need It bad ly If they expect to remain In tha run ning for premier honors. On the other band. If tha Athletics continue their triumphal march through the narrow lane of Cubs' hopes and make It three straight, nothing but a miracle will be able to turn the flood tide In faror of tha Chicago club. Crucial Came on Today. It would mean the titanic task of winning four straight games from a baseball machine which. In tha two con teats already played, has shown mar velous form In nearly every position. Tomorrow's game should prove tha crucial one In tha series aa far as tha Cubs are concerned. It practically will be "Custer's last stand" for Chance and Ms men. Bark to back, flauratlvelr speaklnsr. and farina; a victory-flushed team that has humbted two of their box stars, they must play tha rame aa they have never played It before. If they would triumph over tha Invaders. Switching tha games from FJilba Park to tha Cubs noma diamond glres a distinct advantage to Chance's club. The Cuba know tha lay of the land perfectly and are familiar with every lich of turf on tha West Side lot. In Philadelphia they war "strangers la a strange land" so to speak. There la no denylna; the fact that tha Cubs are full of confidence In spite of their present handicap, and that they fully expect to overcome tha pair of defeats administered during; the short but disastrous Invasion of tha Quaker stronghold. Slump May Be Checked. Certain It Is that the Cubs did not play anywhere np to their usual form In tha two games, and It my bo that the slump will be checked tomorrow. They are famed for their ability to coma "from behind." On their own grounds and before their own crowd a different story may develop. It Is curious to note tha natural change that has coma over tha dyed-in-the-wool Cub fans since the team left for the opening- In Philadelphia. At that tlma tha Athletics seemad to ba held cheaply and tha opinion seemad to prevail that tha American League champions would ba treated much as .Detroit was In 190. A few days ago they were supremely confident. Now they are hopeful, and aa hope Implies doubt, it would appear that their faith has been slightly dislocated. Overall has not pitched op to his usual form during; tha present season and when ha was beaten In tha open er It caused no g-reat surprise. Brown's defeat was another propo sition. Cub fans saw their Idol smoth ered by a terrifio bombardment o Athletic hits and driven to tha bench and naturally much of tha confidence) that has character lxed tha West Side hots oozed out. While tha bitter dregs of unexpected defeat hava been tha portion of the Cubs so far, their bad luck may ba ended, at least for tha time being. One thins; that may turn the scale In their favor la the tact that the Athletics are conceded to ba much better on their home grounds than they are on the road. championship cannot be conceded to any club until the final and deciding game has been played. Followers of baseball were given a striking example of Uils assertion In the ISvl world's series between, the Boston Americans and Pittsburg; Nationals. -Pittsburg won the first game and Boston took the second after which Pittsburg came back and won the third and fourth. It was a nine game aeries and with the tally S to 1 Boston appeared to stand but a allm chance fur the flag. .However, the Hub team re versed Its form, won four straight and took the pennant. I do not believe that Bender can be relied upon to pitch another game In the series that will anywhere near equal his exceptionally brilliant per formance In the first one. I look for ilack to open hla Chicago Invasion with Coombs In case Bender Is not ready to "come back" and I do not be lieve he will be. i will be greatly surprised If Mack does not attempt to continue his win ning streak with Coombs and hold Bender aa his trump card. The Atn letlca have more confidence la Bender and are able to back him up better than any other of the Philadelphia Patchera. Bender la a close student of the game and showed in the first contest that he had studied the Cub batters and only used hla slow balls on those who are accustomed to hit ting fast pltchera That the Cubs are not running bases with the old-lme speed and Judgment was shown In Tuesday's game. Nine base on bails, eight hits and only three runs did not look good, especial ly on top of four errors. Only one Cnh Tinker tried to steal, lie attempted to make second when he thought Coombs was going to pitch wild, lie was thrown out by Thomas. In the game the day previous. Thomaa Triad caught two Cubs who attempted to steal bases) In spite of the fact that kla throwing; was far from perfect. He was lucky to get his man. In Tuesday's game Coombs was wild In early Innings and seemed to be only trying to get them over. That gave the Cubs a fine chance to Steal but they failed to take advantage of their opportunltiea The Cube encountered eonslderable hard luck, though. They got more bad breaks la luck th" the Athletics did. For In stance. In the third Inning Chance was at bat with fVhuite on first and Bheckard ea second. Chance, with two balls and no strikes on him. dodxed a fast ball on the lns;8e which hit his bat for the first strike. At the time cooroos was going .ni It looked aa if Chance surely would get a base on balls, which would ttave given the Cubs three men on bases. with one cut. i -Fv 1 ' '' - m -v - v ' .

"I had counted on Brown for one of the last games," said the Chicago leader, "but If he doesn't come back, which T hsna ha will, we still have Cole, Mclntyre and Richie." Fears that a rain storm would pre vent the first Western game In the present world's series tomorrow were partly allayed tonight.

When McCredle's team won the pen nant in 10 the citizens of Portland contributed a sum sufficient to present each member of the dub with a hand some watch fob, but this year It Is pro posed to do even better than that by the boys, principally because of the decision by Judge Graham, which robs Portland of three games legitimately won.
