12 GEOGM SKW EXKHT EDITLD . W l , S FARNSWORTH ; ATHENS REPORTS ARE OISTINCTir BEARISH Athens, ga„ oct, is—The Georgia football men have buckled down in the most deadly earnest to the task of get ting ready' for Vanderbilt and the big game tn Atlanta Saturday. The game with Citadel Saturday, though a walk-over for the Geor gia team, revealed several defects that must be remedied before the Vanderbilt game. The most important of these Is a lark of snap and dash that Is so essential to every winning ream. Georgia was slow in getting plays under way. and the showing of the team, while a great improvement over that of the previous Saturday, ■wws not sufficient to cause any great amount of rejoicing among the supporters and students. Georgia's defense has been and still is the main trouble, and unless there is great improvement shown In this department by Saturday there will be nothing to the con test but Vanderbilt. Cunningham will most likely get busy this week and bolster up his defense with some new formations. Local supporters realize that to stop the onslaughts of the Commo dore back field requires some won derful defensive tactics, as the prowess of Hardage and Collins is by no means underestimated. Hardage, naturally, is most fear ed of ail Georgia Needs Punter, Another thing that is bothering the coaches is the absence of a good, reliable punter who can be depended upon to boot the ball out of danger. None of the varsity men has shown anything noticeable In the kicking line ’hus far, although Cunningham has had several men working at it since the beginning of the season. The one redeeming feature of the game Saturday was the splendid tackling shown by the secondary’ defense. Upto the present time the men have demonstrated little abil ity to down the runner when once by the line of scrimmage, and their efforts along this particular line have been exceedingly feeble. Local supporters are looking for ward with great interest to the hack field duel between McWhorter, Georgia’s beat bet, and Hardage. the Commodore captain. “Glass of Jelly Won Game for Me/’ Is Marquard’s Wild Claim By Rube Marquard. Bobton. maps., oct. 15. — a jar of Jelly won for me. That may sound funny, but it's the truth Just the same. When I went down to breakfast yesterday morning there was a package waiting for me. It was from my 89-year-old grandmother in Cleveland. 1 had received a letter from her Sunday, and she told me she mailed me a jar of apple jelly. I 1 couldn't open the package fast enough As soon a- I ripped off the cover, I stuck a spoon deep into the Jar, and as 1 swallowed that sweet mouthful I said to myself. "Rube, old boy this jelly will be your mas cot today.” And it sure was. Without that jelly I don't be low, I would have won my game, the game that has put us back in the battle and has left a smooth path to the world s championship. Yes. the jelly won that game. Rut 1 almost lost confidence In it when for five innings 1 wasn't able to get a blooming thing on the ball. I tried my curve and it wouldn’t curve. I tried my fast hall and it wouldn't hop. The Rube Had To Work. "I must mix 'em up” I said to myself, ami for five Innings I never workei harder.

The first ball I pitched in the sixth was a fasu one. It was to Lewis, and he swung on it after it had found its way Into Chief Mey ers' big mitt. Then it was a curve, and it never broke better. The third ball was another fust one and Lfwis hit unde.r ft. raising a foul that the chief clutched. Then Gardner fanned on fvur pitched balls, while 1 struck out the mighty Stnhl with three balls.

FOR D 0 N I 1. ■ Boston Goes Baseball Mad as Series Moves On to Its Crisis By Billy Smith. Fenway park, boston, Oct. 15.—Boston's baseball madness again asserted itself today in the frenzied cheering from the ear ly arrivals over the advent of the Red Sox for practice for the sev enth game of the world's series. The sun dropped behind heavy black .clouds shortly after noon, and a strong wind caine up, but tatssibility of rain had no effect on the fanatics, who pushed and jos tled their way into the grounds as soon as the gates were opened. At 1 o’clock the bleachers were nearly filled and about one-third of the reserved seats were filled, while thousands of fans stood in line out side the gates. The grounds were in excellent condition, but it seen in prac tice that the strong wind bothered the outfielders in their judgment of fly balls. The Giants came onto the field at 12:50, and plunged into practice work Hite colts, making seemingly' impossible catches and throws, and apparently full of confidence of vic tory today. Another army of Giant rooterp came to Boston and plunged heav ily on their favorites. The bet ting quotations varied slightly, but the average odds on the game stood at 5 to 4 on the Red Sox for today, and 2 to 1 on the Bostonians for tomorrow. Can't Figure O’Brien's "Blow." The Boston fans were consider ably shocked at the terrible lashing handed “Buck” O’Brien yesterday and they are still wondering what the Giants did to wreak such havoc in such a short period of time. The turning point in that game was when O’Brien made a palpable balk to first base and allowed Larry Doyle to walk home with a run. Marquard pitched Engle just ex actly' the kind of a ball that he likes to hit. McGraw and the pitchers who had been w’atching Engle told Marquarcr to keep the ball low on him and that he could never make a hit. Instead of fol lowing these instructions, the Rube pitched one waist high on the in side corner of the. plate. On those balls Engle made so many' long hits that he earned the sobriquet of “Hack” and when he saw Mar- quard gave him his old favorite he came near breaking down the fence. 1 look for the victory of the Sox today. If Wood is anywhere near right I am sure he will win the fifty-bone bet I have wagered. It is almost inconceivable that a pitcher who has been pitching baseball for a number of years could make such a mistake as to start a throw to first base and then stop dead in his tracks. It showed one thing to McGraw, how ever, and he lost no time in strik ing while the iron was hot. Imme diately’ after O'Brien made the balk there was great activity' among the Giants. McGraw and Coach Robi son were running here and there and the players W’ere tossing up bats and getting ready for a slaughter. "Don't fool around with him now," said McGraw. "Hit at any thing that comes up." McGraw had seen in an instant that the Red Sox were rattled and that O'Brien w’as more upset than any of them. Their calm, hard working spirit of previous days had gone and in its stead was a nervous anxiety over winning the game that was to settle the wqrld’s championship. By hitting at the first ball or at any one that came near the plate the Giants got to O’Brien before he could settle down after that balk Stahl Makes Poor Move. Bang! Bang! Bang! The hits b-. began popping around the field and when the smoke had blown a«' ly the Giants had five runs and the game. Right then and there Jake Stahl did a most foolish thing. He took O’Brien out of a game that was hopelessly lost and sub stituted Ray Collins, a pitcher on whom he was depending for an ini. portant fight. Colilns pitched in masterful form, but it was like shooting at the stars. The only result of this move was the ruining of two pitchers 01 a hopeless defeat and putting him-• r in an awful position if anything should happen to Wood, the ~n e great star, today. Rube Marquard caughtsthe -i ;t of victory' from his team mates and pitched a beautiful game. He v as a little unsteady in the third and fourth innings, but after that he straightened out and the Sox were helpless. Rube declares that during : ie second Inning he felt that a liga ment in his arm was working out of place and that it affected his control. Between the fourth and fifth innings he went to the bendi where Ed Mackall, the train 1/ bound the pitching wing with ad hesive tape so as to hold the llga. ment in place. After that Rube’s control was perfect and he per formed the rather remarkable feat of making nineteen batters pop easy flies. Engle Proved Surprise. The one man who fooled Mar quard and who is responsible for the only runs made by the Sox is Clyde Engle, the utility infielder who batted in place of O’Brien in the second. There were two on bases when Engle came to the bat. and he sent them both home with a two-bagger that bumped into the left-field fence. CUBS WirfHIRDIN ROW AND HAVE SOX ON RUN CHICAGO, Oct. 15.—The Chieag.' .\'t tionals burled the White Sox under an 8 to 1 score yesterday’, winnirg the third straight game of the series to decide the baseball championship of Chicago. Vic tory for the Cubs today will end the se ries. Clootte attempted to stop the Cubs’ winning streak, but was relieved b> Lange after five runs had been scored off him in two innings. Lange held his oppo nents in check until the ninth, when Saier pounded out his second triple, scoring two more runs. The American leaguers' lone tally was made in the sixth, when Bodie drov<> tie ball deep Into center field for Hire, bases and scored on Johnson's single Cheney pitched' in rare form. He held the Americans to eight hits and kept them well scattered. PROM OTERS~b F 0 I¥ VI PI C GAMES LOST TIDY SUM STOCKHOLM. SWEDEN.
