(AP) Thanks to an old established act, as dependable for drama, thrills, and the triumph of virtue as was "East Lynne" back In the gas-lit days, the Yankees were booming along the vic tory trail today, possessors of their ninth straight world series triumph.

(Associated Press Photo) on the way to breaking up an act that flourished through the poet Benson championship struggles of loae, 1027 and 1928, the team of Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig rose In their might, emote the traiutgrensor, and shattered the morale of the Chi cago Cuba In the opening game of Vie world series. At the end of a stormy day, next to the poorest In the matter of At tendance a Yankee world series ever has known, a day that started In a rain storm and ended in glistening sunshine, the score stood la to 6 In favor of the American league cham pions. But the final score told nothing of the gawdy return to world series play of the heroes of 1037 and 1928, when the Yankees won two world titles from the Pirates and Cardinals In eight successive games. It was Ruth, Just recovered from a mild attack of appendicitis, who marched to the plate In the fourth Inning with the Cubs lendir.g 2 to 0, and Earle Combs, the first Yankee Bush had allowed on base, resting on second through the medium of a base on balls and an infield out. The Babe smashed, a long single to right and the giy-halred Ken tucky colonel raoed home. Lou Oeh rlgh tramped to the plate. The count reached three and two. lie laid Into the deciding pitch, a "screw" ball on the outside corner, and belted It far on a line Into the deep reaches of the right field stands. The Yankees led, 3 to 3, and the game might Just as well have ended there. That home run smash unsettled Bush, king pin of the Cub survers, and shattered the morale of a team that had pranced Into battle, cocky and confident to grab a quick two run lead off hurley Charley Ruffing, beat of the Yankee right hand pitch ers. Bush lost his control and his stuff. Hie mates faltered behind him. And the game wore on to its Inevitable conclusion, a dreary, point less sort of duel, like two friends boxing for the fun of It. Ruth and Gohrigh, their work done, faded Into the background of the general scramble. Only 41,469 spectators, far under the record for world serlee attend ance set at 63.000 by the Yankeea In 1916, braved a chilly rainy morning and the decreasing showers that de layed Vie start of the opening game lft minutes, to see the highly favored Yankees tear away to an Impressive start.

Antelope TO PLAY FRIDAY the CONNIE MACK TO REVAMP A'S BASEBALL MACHINE (By Oayle Talbot, Associated Press 8porU Writer.) NEW YORK, Sept. 30. (P) Connie Mack, venerable pilot of the Phil adelphia Athletics, has started tearing apart the great baseball machine he drove to three American league flags In 1930. '30 and '31, and the Chicago Whit Box, at the same time, have thrown their resources Into the market for players of proved ability In on, of the most startling deals i of recent baseball history. Manager Mack announced last night he had sold outfielders Al Simmons ana George (Mule) "Haas, and Inflelder Jimmy Dykes to the White Sox for cash. The price paid for the three stars was not announced, but Sox officials said It was the largest amount of cash they ever handed out and prob ably the greatest sum which ever exchanged hands in the American league. It was estimated the Sox put around 915(XO0O on the barrel head. Whether the sale presaged a gen eral breaking up of the present Ath letic team, Connie Mack would not say. The consensus was, however, that the 67-year-old leader had some thing of the sort In mind. Just IT years ago he wrecked a glamorous team because It had be come satiated with victory. At that time he sent one of his greatest stars, Eddie Collins, to the White Sox and Collins became the corner stone of a championship club at Chi cago. Where Mack contented himself with the bare announcement of the deal, Sox officials were less reticent. "It means we are through trying to develop a winning team with rook ies," said Secretary Harry Qrablner. "This Is only the beginning. We are out to got the players we want." While Haas and Dykes are consid ered valuable playors, Simmons Is the big gun In the deal. Possessed of a nine-year major league batting av erage of nearly .380. he la recognized as one of the game's greatest stars. He Is one of the most feared batters In ths big leagues, a ball hawk In left field, and withal, a player any manager would welcome with open arms. During the last season he finished with an average around .333, but he still Is comparatively young and should prove a sound Investment for the Sox. Ha waa the batting cham pion of the American league both In 1030 and 1031. The Junior high school football team and Coach Ray Henderson will make their Initial bow of the season tomorrow evening at 3:30 o'clock against the Jacksonville team, he game will be played at the Junior high field. Coach Henderson announcea starting lineup as follows: Davidson and Huber. ends; Snntos and Clark, tackles: Hostmark and Brown, guards; Cave, center; Evans, quarterback; Dunford and Coats, halfbacks; and Dickinson, fullback. The teams are reported aa evenly matched. A small admission will be be charged to defray minor expenses. SOUTHERN OREGON NORMAL, Ashland, Bept. 39. (Spl.) Coach Howard A. Hobson, new grid mentor from Benson Tech of Portland, la working his Southern Oregon Normal school vsrslty squad overtime In prep aration for what promises to be the hardest game of the 1932 season Sat urday when he takes his team south to meet the California Aggies In a night game at Sacramento. With less than two weeks practice Hobson Is faced with the task of moulding a team Into a new system of play and getting it Into condition to meet an eleven which has already held two coast conference teams, the Ucla Bruins and Navy Bill Ingram's Bears, to low scores. The finding of two combinations of ball carriers has eased the precarious backfleld situation a good deal. Claude Hlnea, sensational negro half back, and Bud Jones, formerly of Orant high of Portland, were ex pected to carry the brunt of the work, but the finding of Tommy Mc- Klttrlck. who burned up the Willam ette valley prep school league at Eu gene and George York, ex-Benson Tech fullback, Hobson now has two threats to carry out his running at tack. Jim Crockett Is handling the quar terback lng job and Cliff McLean, flashy basketball star also of Benson, Is working at the remaining halfback post. '8wedc" Anderson, the great line man from Med ford, has been shifted from his old position at tackle to guard, where he Is teamed with Dwlght Patterson, also a veteran. The tackles are Mike Balkovlc, a re. liable letterman, and another Benson man, Harvey Oakes, who stands stx- four and weighs considerably over 200 pounds. Bob Patterson and Frank Sapp, both veterans, have Hobson 's end problems In their hands while Con Mahoney, a fighting 160 -pounder, has the edge on the center Job. Roan Oreen. another of "Prink' Calllson's proteges, back In the state championship days. Is playing a whale of a game at guard and Is a constant threat to step Into one of the first string assignments. Frisco McOale of Seattle and J-k Olbbs of this city fought a 10-round draw at the Armory In the main event of last night', boxing bill. Mc- ; Dale showered Olbbs with lesther j most of the way, and In a couple of rounds gave the local entry a boxing lesson. Two or three times, Olbbs missed the slippery colored gent three feet with what be Intended to be a knockout punch. Some of the fans thought McOale won the fracas. Mc Oale landed oftener, but Gibbs hit ths hardest punches. The negro was an expert at covering up and stop ping licks with his elbows. Circus Red Howe and Turkey Red Hansaker clouted to a draw. Circus Red outweighed his foe and cut the Turkey's eye in the second round. Hsnsaker finished In a rush and was peppering his foe lively at the finish of the six-round affair. Charles Norman of Medford slap ped down Lloyd Barkdull In the sec end round for the count. Cort Mitchell was given a technical knock out over Jack Slmms, and Prank Nel son was knocked out by Emerson Babb In the second. The preliminary winners had little opposition, and the first three fights were short. The main event, however, waa a fast, furious and scientific engage ment, and was rated by many as the best battle of the year. ) PRIZES Enter PETERS' BIG BUCK CONTEST Let us tell you about this heaviest buck contest.
