It roes down as the $50,000 blow of the series, deciding the difference between the winners' and the los ers' share of the fpoili. Finish Blost Dramatic The finishing rally was not a-! devastating as the ten-ran splurge of the Mackmen in overcoming the Cubs Saturday bat it was more dramatic because it settled the is sue before the most distinguished fans of the land, Mr. and Mrs. HooTer, arriving ten minutes be fore the game with a targe party Including cabinet officers, stayed to the last out. They were on their - feet, applauding as Haas, then Simmons and Miller struck the blows that suddenly converted the game from a prospective Cub vic tory to a wild triumph for the Athletics. This was the big moment for the old master, Mack, as he saw fcia fighting young club slash .through the gamest kind of a de fense by the Cub, clinch the series by a margin of four games to one and give him hi3 fourth world's championship. Fate and a number of hard hit balls, it seemed, were combined to make safe what is now a world's record for the 67 year old leader of the Athletics. No other manager in baseball has ever won four world's series. This wn Mark's fourth in six tries since 105, adding 1929 to the other victories years or 1310, 1911, and 1913. John McGraw is the only other living man who has a manr na three world's titles. the mark which the late Miller Huggins also attained with the Yankees. Slimmest of Chances Converted Into Victory There didn't seem more than the remotest chance for the Ath ' letics to win today after they had been held to two hits for eight in nings by the fast balls of big Pat Malone and after Wally French, piuch hitting for George (Rube) Walberg, in the ninth, had struck out. The Cubs had driven the hero of the first game, Howard Ehmke, out of the box in the fourth in ning with a victorious attack, with two out, that produced two runs and what looked like a secure lead as Malone mowed down the Mackmc.i If it hadn't been for the mem ry of that "luck seventh" Sat Irday, the crowd might have given up hope entirely when French fanned. It wasn't in the cards for anything like that rally of the fourth game to be repeated and by the same team, but the Ath letics of 1929, the world's cham pions now, are not beaten until the last man is out. Proved It today, if any proof was needed aft er the way they won two days ago and they proved that for sheer, raw courage In au emer gency, they rank among the great est of baseball champions.

French, another pinch hit ting 'bust of the Beries. fanned, but Max Bishop brought the crowd to Its feet with a sipping drive that flirted third base line all the way down. It was held to a single only by the fast work of Riggs Stephenson. George Haas was swinging his bat, perhaps the same one with which he belted his trick homer to center in Satur day's seventh, the drive that Hack Wilson lost In the sun. The first pitch came in, a "high hard" one a trifle inside. The crash was drowned out by the bedlam of shouting. The ball arched high. Kiki Cuyler backed to the wall but it was over the fence, over by a good margin as it dropped into Twentieth street and bounced. on the porch of a house in the now which had 2,000 more howl ing fan3 on top. Bishop juid HaM Both Cross Platter In a few moments, all of Ma lone's great pitching, all the fine defensive work of the Cubs had been offset. No sun could take away any of the lustre of that wallop. It was a man sized home run and pandemonium was loose as Bishop and Haas trotted around the bases. Mickey Cochrane grounded out to Hornsby for the second out, but Al Simmons, wh'o led the big parade Saturday, again proved himself a great batter in the pinch. He smashed one to the scoreboard for two bases and the winning run was only a few strides from the plate.

Bing Miller had garnered one of the two hits made off Malone up to the ninth by the Chicago mas ter minds figured he was easier to get than the slugging Foxx. Insult Fails to Arouse Resentment Bing, If he felt any resentment over this implied reflection on his ability, stood nonchalantly at the plate as he let four go by, two balls and two strikes. Malone was pitching cautiously, working the corners, but Miller was now ready for business. The veteran outfield er swung on the next ball, a fast one waist high, and sent It on a line between Cuyler and Wilson. From the moment it left bat there was not the slightest doubt of its decisiveness. It was officially rec orded as a two base hit but there was not even an attempt to make a play for Simmons, who almost had to fight his way through wildly excited team mates who rushed out to escort him in with the winning run. With this flourishing finish, the Athletics once again lifted the American League banner to the peak for the third consecutive year, with a more dramatic if not quite as decisive a touch as did the Yankees in scoring their clean sweeps of 1927 and 1928. The Na tional League has now lost 12 of the last 13 world's series games and must wait another year for any chance of revenge.
