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 Tigers look like "mutts.” Cobb, Crawford and company found Adams a complete puzzle. The youngster’s 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 ho 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 the prize out of the fire. 20-YEAR-OLD GIRL SWIMS AROUND BIG SEAL ROCKS SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 25.—Miss Nel lie Schmidt, a twenty-year-old Alameda girl, is the first swimmer, a man or woman, who has circled the Seal rocks at the entrance to Golden Gate.
