They emerged late in the afternoon champions of the universe, leaving a trail of Btartling surprises and upsets in their wake which it will be hard to duplicate in years to come. Last and far from the least of their accomplishments was the overthrow in four consecutive games of the world famous baseball machine of Connie Mack, with itB hundred thousand dollar infield, home-run heroes and corps of skillfully blended veteran and youthful pitching stars. To the victors belong the spoils and the credit, and unexpected as was the crushing defeat, the Mackmen took it in sportsmanlike spirit, praising the winners and offering no excuses for their failure to hold their national league rivals in check.
