a star and will cut up "didoes” for
Jimmy t’allahan in the coming
city series between the Cubs and
White Sox.
Adams Beat Tigers,
'Babe" Adams, then practically
an unknown ball player, won the
first game of the 1909 series for
Pittsbung. He had been with
Pittsburg all that season, playing
third fiddle to Howard Camnitz
and Victor Willis, who were given
credit for winning the National
league championship.
Willis. Camnitz and "Lefty” Lei
field were counted on to beat De
troit, but the Tiger sluggers clout
ed all three hard. Adams and
Nick Maddox had to win the se
ries for Pittsburg. Adams went
the route like a stake horse and
twirled three straight victories for
Clarke’s men. He made the heavy
hitting ligers look like "mutts.”
Cobb, Crawford and company found
Adams a complete puzzle. The
youngsters triumph was sensa
tional in the extreme. He allowed
eighteen hits in three games, struck
out eleven Tigers and walked six
men.
Jack Coombs, of Philadelphia,
equaled Adams’ record as far as
winning three straight in the 1910
series, but he was lucky. Al
though he beat the Cubs every’ time
he worked against them, Chance’s
men slammed Jack’s offerings
fiercely. Nothing but superb sup
port and the Athletics’ ability to
make plenty of runs enabled
Coombs to go over three times.
Bender Hero Last Year.
“Chief" Bender, wonderful red
skin, was the hero of the 1911 clash
between New York and Philadel
phia. The Indian allowed sixteen
hits in three games, winning two
and losing one. Coombs beat the
Giants once and Plank won and
lost a game. Matty lost two and
won one game. Otis Crandall won
the other game credited to New
York, although Ames was really
entitled to the victory. Marquard
was taken out in the third; Ames
pitched six innings; Crandall bat
ted for him in the tenth and got
the glory when New York jerked
fife prize out of the fire.

Not a One Idea Car
Individuals have done great work.
Much advancement has been shown by
different designers. But in all cars built
under that method, there is a limit, for
the designer, no matter how experienced
or clever he may be, is bound to fall
short of perfection. By combining the
experience of 48 men, some man in the
group is always able to make good the
shortcomings of his fellows.
The New HUDSONS show, therefore,
cars that have been built on a new idea.
No similar group of men in size or ex
perience ever before combined in build
ing an automobile and by the same token
no automobile ever built is so nearly
developed along the right lines in all
details as are the New HUDSONS.
