WHITE SOX ATTACK
CRUSHES MORATJ MEfJ
CINCINNATI. Oct 7. The person
who waa directed yesterday to shin
UP the pole at Redland park and meas
ure it for the world championship
bunting: slid down the shaft a bit to
day and the measuring; was postponed.
The reason was that the Chicago
White Sox did not dare lose today's
same, for with it would have gone
the championship. They overcame a
lead of four runs and by delivering
one more tally In the 10th round won
the game, five runs to four for Cin
cinnati.
It was a contest replete with thrills
and heartbreaks, varied by some weird
fielding;, snappy baserunning. mighty
clouts, mad catches and in short, prac
tically everything relating to baseball.
Cincinnati looked like a certain win
ner in the third and fourth rounds
in the course of which four Red less
crossed the plate. In the fifth, how
ever, the Sox turned two passes and
a single into a tally and in the six
two doubles and two singles were the
major factors in the three runs which
tied the score.
To Buck Weaver, sterling third
baseman, who wilded a mighty stick
in the game, fell the distinction of
recording the winning run in the 10th.
He was the first man up and doubled
to center, his second two-sacker of
the game. The partisan crowd became
hushed and then began to chant en
couragement to Ring, who had dis
placed Reuther as pitcher for the
Reds.
Jarkaea Bunts Safely. j
Jackson tried a bunt and missed.
but on a second attempt the ball drib
bled a few feet down the third-base
line, and while the ball was perfectly
fielded. Jackson crossed the initial
sack with time to spare. Weaver land
ing on third. Felsch. who had de
livered a double in the sixth, struck
out. but Gandil. who had previously
delivered nothing, singled and Weav
er scored.
In their half of the tenth the Reds
went out in order and the day closed
with the series standing four victories
for Cincinnati and two for Chicago.
The Cincinnati team entered th
field confident that they had so
drubbed the visitors that the last
ounce of fight had departed from
them. The latter, however, had been
hauled over the coals In unmistakable
fashion by Manager Gleason during
the forenoon, and they came on the
field looking desperate, rather than
hopeful. Dutch Reuther. who became
a local idol by his great pitching and
perfect batting in the first game of
the series, in which Chicago was hu
initiated. 9 to 1. trotted out to de
liver the coup de grace to the Amer
ican leaguers.
Crowd Cheers Reataer.
The crowd gave him a rousing wel
come. but. although he held his ad
versaries hltless during the first three
Innings, experts noted that the Sox
were slugging them savagely into the
outfield, or sizzling them down the
foul lines in a way that was not pres
ent in the first game. There were
none out in the sixth when Manager
Moran. more in sorrow than In anger.
beckoned him to the bench, and Jim
Ring, a right-bander who pitched the
Reds to a 2-to-v victory at Chicago,
was called on to save the day. He
was wild but effective until the tenth.
aided by some sparkling fielding.
Dick Kerr, who pitched Chicago's
only previous victory, a 3-to-0 shut
out at Chicago, was again called upon
by Manager Gleason and. although 11
hits were registered against him. he
. was steady in the pinches and kept
them well scattered, save for his two
bad Innings.
Ray Schalk. who was banishd yes
terday. was back in the catcher's box.
and J. Collins started the game in
right field for the Sox. but was dis
placed in the seventh by Liebold. as
Ring, a right-hander, was pitching.
The newspaper bulletin boards
downtown cheered whenever the
Reds made a hit or scored a run.
There were groans from the crowds
when the White Sox were flashed the
winner.
Band Dees Stent.
A novel serenade waa given by the
band just before the start of the con
test. After each verse or chorus of
a popular song the bandsmen would
shout the name of a Cincinnati player
and then render more music in his
honor. Thousands of the bleacheritei
joined in the chorus.
Clarence Rowland, whom Gleason
succeeded as manager of the Sox. oc
cupied a seat In the press box and
rooted for a Sox victory. When
Gandil came to bat in the tenth Row
land made the prediction that he
would hit safely and break up the
game.
Roush, the sensational Cincinnati
outfielder, robbed the Sox of a victory
in the eighth when he picked Ris
berg's liner off his shoes t'ter a
thrilling running catch and doubled
Jackson at second.
Ticket speculators got as much as
$:& for a grandstand seat today. Other
eats offered at $li and 1:0 were
eagerly snapped up.

A great baseball critic said at the
start of the World's Series:
"The White Sox and the Reds are
evenly matched in skill. The team
with the better 'nerves' wins."
To steady "nerves" in baseball or
in business there's nothing better
than Adams Black Jack Gum. It's a
nerve steadier that has found great
favor with the better ball players.

CIGOTTE MS NEXT CULL
GLEASON EXPECTED TO SEND
EDDIE IX AG A IX'.
Moran lias Praise for Gameness
of Little) Dick Kerr; Sox
Pilot Renews Hope.
CINCINNATI, Oct. 7. Pitching se
lections for the seventh game of the
world series scheduled for Redland
field tomorrow were shrouded in un
certainty tonight but It was generally
believed that Manager Gleason of the
Sox would send .Eddie Cicotte. al
though beaten twice, against the
Reds in a determined effort to again
turn the tide of defeat.
"Slim" Sallee. who defeated the
Sox, 4 to 2, in the second game of the
series, probably will be Manager
Moran's pitching choice although he
may decide to give Luque, the Cuban
twirler. a chance to face the Chl-
cagoans. Sallee was batted hard in
the second game, the Sox getting 10
hits but only succeeded in scoring two
runs.
Today's game was a heart-breaker
for the Reds to lose, said Manager
Moran tonight. We should have won
it half a dosen times. But the strain
of the world's series is beginning to
ell on my players and they were a
bit unnerved. But they will regain
themselves tomorrow and wind it up.
"Kerr pitched better ball than
lther Reuther or Ring. He demon
strated his gameness when he pitched
himself out of a couple of tight places
and got some erratic support. It is
possible that I shall start Sallee
against the Sox tomorrow."
"The Sox have hit their winning
stride and although tremendous odds
are against us we are far from out of
the race," said Manager Gleason, "The
players have begun to hit and it will
be a different story from now on.
They slammed everything Reuther
and Ring had today and will do the
same thing to Sallee if he pitches tomorrow.
Despite the fact 'that the breaks
went against us. we played a better
brand of ball than the Reds. We
should have cinched the game in the
Ighth only for Rousch s lucky catch
of Rlsberg's liner. It would have
gone for a double sure and we would
have scored two runs. I am proud
of Kerr's pitching. He possessed ex
traordinary pitching cklll and re
markable gameness.
"I have every confidence that Ci
cottee can beat Cincinnati and may
start him tomorrow if I think he is
right."
World Series Notes Tell
How It Happened.
Sox Fans Headed for Home Walt
to See Another Game,
CINCINNATI. Oct 7. The seventh
game of the series Is scheduled
for Redland field tomorrow. The
eighth game, if necessary, will be
played in Chicago Thursday.
There was a rush for railroad of
fices after the game to cancel reser
vations for tonight. Hundreds of
Chicago fans believing that the Sox
are still in the race, decided to re
main over.
Cincinnati had preparations made
for a huge celebration tonight. The
bands and red fire will be brought
out tomorrow night if the Reds are
victorious.
The stands were packed when J.
Collins, the first of the Sox batsmen,
faced Reuther. He popped a high
one which Rath captured way back
of second base, surrounded by Neale,
Daubert and Kopf, who had Jour
neyed from their respective stations,
as it might have belonged to any of
them. Eddie Collins hit viciously for
an out at center. Weaver's grass
cutter went through Kopf, but Jack
son made the third out with another
pop up.
In the Reds half Groh doubled after
outs by Rath and Daubert. Risberg
at short juggled Rousch's grounder
until the runner was safe, but Groh
overran third and Risberg threw to
Weaver for an out.
The feature of the second inning,
otherwise unadorned, was the force
out of Duncan at third. Duncan got
a lift on Risberg's fumble of his
grounder. Kerr became unsteady
and walked Kopf. Neale grounded
to Kerr, who Ignored the batsman
and snapped a high one to Weaver,
who, however, trapped it in his un
gloved hand and caught Duncan.
Rariden then tapped one to Eddie
Collins, whose throw to Risberg
killed Neale at second, but Kopf
reached third. The Mighty Reuther,
whose great batting in the first game
was remembered with cheers by the
crowd, responded with an easy out.
Kerr to Gandil. In this Inning
Schalk walked and was sacrificed to
second but got no further.
In the third Rath was retired E.
Collins to Gandil and Daubert singled
to right. He stole second. Groh
fanned and Rousch was hit by pitched
ball. There were now two on bases
and the crowd began calling for a
run. Duncan responded with a ter
rific double between J. Collins and
Felsch. which scored Daubert and
Rousch, amid a tumult in the stands.
Kerr looked worried but the strain
on him was relieved by Kopf who Sep,
an easy one to Felsch in center.
One isolated and useless single
marked the Sox' half of the fourth.
In their half the Reds accumulated
two more. Neale sent one to right
which took an eccentric bound and J.
Collins cut across the field after It
and it rolled on for a triple. Rariden
was an out. E. Collins to Gandil,
Neale being held easily at third.
Reuther then measured up to the
crowd's expectations by doubling,
sending Neale across the plate. Rath
hit to Risberg, who attempted to
catch Reuther going to third but the
ball caught the runner in the back
and rolled to the stands while the
pitcher scored and Rath made second.
Weaver was unable to persuade the
umpire that Reuther deliberately in
terposed his shoulder to deflect the
balL A moment later Rath, taking
advantage of the momentary demor
alisation of the Sox. stole third.
Jackson ended the trouble for his
team mates by a brilliant running
catch of Daubert's short fly and a
throw to Schalk which killed Rath,
who was attempting to score on the
out.
Chicago's first evidence of a return
to form came in the fifth. Ruether
was unsteady and walked Risberg and
Schalk. Kerr beat out a hit to short,
filling the bases. J. Collins lined to
Rousch, but the ball was caught so
close in that Risberg made no at
tempt to score. Eddie Collins, how
ever, came to the rescue with a long
fly to . Rousch, on which the Sox'
shortstop scored. At this point a
serio-comic bit of base running was
produced. Rousch threw to third
ahead of Schalk, who, however, man
aged to scurry back to second. Kerr,
meanwhile, had trotted down to sec
ond and seemed not to comprehend
what was happening when . Schalk
came tearing back. He - stood still
while Groh. shouting madly to some
one to take his throw, finally ran up
to the unprotected. Kerr and tagged
him for the thiroVbut.
In the Reds' half of the fifth with
two down Duncan reached third when
Felsch dropped his long drive, but
he died there as Kopf was interred.
Risberg to Gandil.
In the sixth the Sox did their first
clean and consecutive hitting of the
series. Weaver poled a short double
just where there was no one to reach
it and flashed across the plate a mo
ment later on Jackson's single. Felsch.
who already has a single to his credit.
doubled, scoring Jackson. Manager
Moran, who had been standing un
easily on the side lines, at this mo
ment relieved Reuther. Ring was sent
in. Gandil popped to Daubert and Ris
berg grounded out, Kopf to Daubert,
but Felsch reached third. Schalk then
singled past Groh and sent Felsch
home with the tieing run. Schalk
stole second, but Kerr was thrown out
at first. Ring issued two passes in the
eighth but was saved by a sparkling
double play. Risberg lined to center
but Rousch came in on the dead run
and caught the ball off his shoe
strings and doubled Jackson before be
could return to second base.
In their share of this Inning, the
Reds got a man to third after two
were out. Neale got his' third hit of
the game, a single to left. Rariden
grounded to Kerr, who became con
fused in throwing the ball and Neale
went on to third while the Red catch
er was safe at first. Ring forced
Raridan a moment later, ending the
round.
In the tenth Weaver doubled and
Jackson singled, sending Weaver to
third, and the handful- of Chicago
rooters put up a shout. Gandil re
sponded with a single to center which
sent Weaver home with what proved
to be the winning run. Jackson took
second on the play. Risberg lined to
Kopf and Jackson was doubled off
second.
The last effort of the Reds was
brief and ineffectual. Rousch went
out, Collins to Gandil; Duncan fouled
out to Schalk and Kopf was easy by
the Collins-Gandil route.
The final score was 8 to 7. The game
was marked by errors and poor team
work, the goal tenders on both sides
failing to guard the goals.
Wheeler, of the Dolphins, was the
star of the game, with Wilsey press
ing him for honors and also Kuehn.
For the Dolphins the goals were
made by Wheeler (4), Kuehn (3) and
McHale (1). For the Sub Chasers, Wil
sey (3), Enegrene (2) and Clarke (2)
The next game of the series will be
played Friday night.

K ERR HURLS GREAT GAME
WEE SOUTHPAW FAR STEAD
IER THAX RED SLABMAX.
Sox Pitcher Issues but Two Passes
Against Enemies' Six; Ball
Tally Also Favors Dick.
CINCINNATI, Oct. 7. Dick Kerr,
midget southpaw pitcher for the Chi
cago White Sox, again tonight was
the hero of the White Sox rooters
after having pitched his team to an
other victory here in the sixth of the
world's series games.
Walter Reuther. southpaw hero of
Cincinnati's victory in the first game
of the series, blew up in the sixth in
ning and was' sent to the bench.
Jimmy Ring, the Reds' right-hander,
who pitched a winning game for his
club at Chicago last week, finished.
Although Cincinnati knocked 11 hits
off Kerr, while Reuther ana King
were touched for only ten hits, analy
sis of today's pitching records shows
that Kerr pitched a steadier game.
The little left-hander walked only
two men and struck out two. Reuther
and Ring gave a total of six bases
on balls and only two strikeouts.
Reuther and Ring each gave tnren
passes, while the two strikeouts were
credited to Ring. Kerr gave a total
of only 60 balls, while the Cincinnati
pitchers threw 65 wild ones.
The White Sox star put over J7
strikes and his opponents 28. Reuther
and Ring were touched for 34 hits,
of which ten were safe. Cincinnati
got 35 clouts at the ball, 11 of which
were safe.
Twenty-four fouls were knocked off
the Cincinnati pitchers and only IS
off Kerr.
The dope sheet shows that not onoe
did Reuther strike the same easy
stride which won his first game for
him. Ring got wild in the eighth,
walking two men and was hit for the
winning run in the tenth.
