Up to that time he had allowed their beloved Ath- letics one ione hit and he had been truculent in his attitude, The crowd saw in Grimes an ill- tempered machine, & man who was mowing down the home boys with remarkable precision and doing his level best to. keep a third straight world champion- ship from coming to Philadelphia. Out there in the sunlight, in other words, Grimes was a villain hatch- ing the darkest of plots. Down in the dim light of the passageway that led to the Card- inals' dugout there was an entire- ly different Grimes. He stood there cursing, almost crying, as the husky trainer of the National League champions grasped him about the chest from behind and squeezed him until something cracked. Then he scrambled back out there, tears in his eyes and fighting mad, determined to pitch that last inning. Grimes Protests Decision There was a close play on a Cardinal at first base, The umpire called him out and you could hear Grimes above all else 2s he told the arbiter in no uncertain terms, what he thought of him, person- ally, and his decision, He is a fighting ball player, this bewhisk. ered veteran who stopped the A's yesterday, He was in pain from a "erick" in his neck, but he would not give either the Athletics or the crowd the satisfaction of rea- lizing his plight, Had Grimes been built that way, he might have gotten out of pitching that last inning and gone + down on the records as having al- 3 lowed one of the most dangerous * collections. of sluggers in the ? world only one hit in eight in. + nings, But he finished his game, ~ even if he was deprived of a shut. 1 out by Al Simmons' mighty home 4 run drive. : ¢ _ There was a happy scene in the Cardinals' dressing room as they © gathered about Grimes and pump- ed his hand, but there wasn't a slap on his back, They were jubil- ant, They yelled, they laughed and they predicted they would fin. ish the Athletics without the formality of going back to St. Louis. "I knew I could tame those uys," chortled Grimes, "They eat me twice last year when I had them all wrapped up, but they couldn't do it to-day. Yeah, I'd a liked to have pitched a no- hitter. Sure. But I made the mis- take of trying to slip a fast one by Bing Miller in the eighth, and that was that, Simmons got hold of one high and outside in the ninth." Did he intend to take another shot at the Athletics if the series lasted long enough, Sure He can Beat 'Em Again "Sure, I'll be ready to take my regular turn, if we go back to St. Louis. I think I can beat 'em again." Gabby Street's face spread in a bs nae EE et CEPT ren | New Martin "Today and Wednesday | 'T en? Iransgression .

All my pitchers are ready to go and the whole club is keyed up now, They'll have a hard time stopping us. "Who'll pitch to-morrow? 1 don't know; wouldn't even guess, But whoever it is, he'll take a lot of beating." Grimes' great form yesterday was 8 surprise to Connie Mack, venerable pilot of the Athleties. "He surprised me both as a pitcher and a batter, He appav- ently was pitching better than he did during the regular season. My boys just couldn't hit him. Mack Praises Martin "Naturally, I must say that Martin has been the most unusual player in the series. You seldom hear of a rookie so dominating the attack as he has. He seems to have supplied the punch St. Louis needed. He was responsible for both runs Friday, while to-day he was a factor in the second and fourth inning scoring. "But the whole Cardinal team was on its toes, hustling and play- ing splendid ball throughout, and they deserved to win. ""Grove's finger did not bother him, I figure he pitched good ball, but the Cardinals were in a hit- ting mood. Rather than blame him, I would praise the Cardinals, "For the first time {n three years now, we must come from be- hind if we are to win the cham- plonship. If our boys were hitting 4s during the season I would have more confidence, Nevertheless | know they have thelr heads up and will not acknowledge they are beaten until the series is ended."

The local citadel of the National Leaguers, the Ben Frank- lin Hotel, teemed with good cheer last evening with smiles popping out trom behind every pillar in the lohby. Meanwhile all over town the fol- lowers of the Macklan fortunes still reel from the fearful trouncing their heroes reccived in the Shibe play- ground this afternoon. Whenever two Athletic rooters run into each other the question leaping from lip to ear is always the same, "Can the Macks come back?" In their three ennant-winning years Connie fack's modern white elephants have jumped their league in early spring and held undisputed sway to the finish, Against the Cubs in 1929 and the Cards last year they had the same good fortune. When the Cardinals won Friday it was the first time in three "World Series that the A's had been reduced to an even footing with their foemen, Yesterday's result put them behind in the running for the first time. The other two games to be played here will give local fans their an- swer, Today and Thursday the courage of the modern Macks will be put to the severest test the team has faced since it gained first place in early September, 1928, only to be nosed out by the Yankees, The result of the impending con- tests will write a chapter' in the story of Connie Mack's champions i that will carry down the years, Vic- tory will stamp the Mackmen as a courageous team as well as an ex- pert one, Defeat will give them the name among baseball's historians of being "front runners." To their credit still stands the ten-run rally they exploded under the Cubs' noses two years ago. But though they were eight runs behind when they put on their historic stampede, they were ahead in games 2 to 1, Yesterday's games probably set a new World's Series record for the number of governmental execu- tives present, with the President, the Governor of Pennsylvania and the Mayors of three major cities occupying box seats.

Dr. Harlow Shapley, director of Harvard College Observatory, who laid the foundation for some of the experiments to be made at Lowell Observatory, Flagstaff, where the planet Pluto was dis- covered last year, described some of the methods to be used there, Something like a thousand million meteors, not to be cone fused with meteorites, enter the earth's atmosphere dally, but no one knows where they originate, Dr, Shapley said, Most of them are tiny, mere dust, and burn themselves out before they reach the earth's surface. The larger shooting stars, meteorites, are comparatively rare and only one or two strike the earth's surface fn a day. : The speed of the shooting stars will be the principal means employed to determine their origin, according to Dr. Shapley. 'He described a somewhat com- plicated device, newly invented, which will enable the six obser.

"If a shooting star is travel- ling 30 miles per second it is fair to assume that it has not originated in our solar system." Dr, Soley sald, "but if it is as slow. as 235 miles per second fit probably is a solar meteor."

Barton to Fore As Cubs Win Chicago, Il, Oct, 6.--Charley Grimm, the Cubs' slugging first baseman kept the National Lea- gue in the battle for the Chicago city baseball title yesterday with a ninth-inning double that gave his team a 3 to 2 victory over the White Sox and an even break in the set, The seventh and final game will be played to-day. Trailing by a single run as the ninth opened, the Cubs appeared hopelessly beaten, for only four hits were made off Frasier. Then Vince Barton rolled a single over second base. Dan Taylor, whose home run had provided the only Cub score until the last inning, and Kerr's throw to Cissell in an attempt to start a double play was wild, both runners being safe. Grimm took advantage of the "break" hy pounding a line drive for two bases, - long enough to score Barton and Taylor, the lat- ter speeding home from first on the blow. Catcher Grube of the White Sox was banished in the second inning for vigorously protesting a decision of Umpire Hildebrand. In the fifth, Watwood with a double, was sacrificed to third, and after Jolley had been pur- poseiy passed, Fonseca drove ome the tying run for the Box with a single. On the next play, Bush turned his ankle trying to complete a double play at first base. He resumed pitching, but after passing Sullivan and Kerr, had to retire, May taking his place. The pass to Kerr forced over Jolley with the run that put the White Sox ahead. R.H.E.

Should be a Close Game Mike's Place Jrs, are confident of the result of Saturday's game here with Brantford Collegiate, but do not expect that they will have as easy a time defeating their opponents as they did last week. It was freely admitted in the Telephone City that the game put up by their favorites was not their usual brand of ball and away below par, No explanation of this was given, however. There is the fact that three of the six hits garnered by Brantford were for extra bases to be taken into consideration and it cannnt be overlooked, Mike's Place had one big inning and that gave them their margin of victory. Without that they would have been one run down, In vew of the fact that the team had three trips to Kingston and the final will be played with North Bay entailing a long expensive rail journey, it has been thought advisable to raise the price of admission for the game here to twenty-five cents, LJ LJ ® Fine Performance Grimes was close to that almost unbelievable feat--a no-hit, ne-run World Series game yesterday. For seven innings the mighty Athletics, champions of the world for two years hand-running, were as sand lot boys before the dazzling. assortment of spitters, curves, fast balls slow balls and inshoots thet spun from the moistened fingers of old Burleigh. Away back in 1936, Reulbach, of Chicago Nationals, was credited with a one-hit game against Chicago American Leaguers, In' the same series, Walsh of the White Sox and Mordecai Brown of the Nationals cach pitched two-hit games. It hasn't been done since. During the first seven indings Gtimes, save for three bases on balls, was the perfect pitcher. Not once during that stretch did the A's even so much as threaten to make a hit. They were just as so mush putty in the hands of the veteran, who was not considered good enough to start the series. They said he was slipping. But with Foxx on base through a walk in the eighth, Bing Miller broke Grimes' spell by clipping a clean single and the probable hope of the St. Louis pitcher of earning himself a front row pedestal in boseball's hall of fame was over. Then in the ninth came Simmons' mighty blow for a home run, his second hit of the series and his second homer, to prevent a shutout. Simmons' poke was regrettable, for if ever a man, from all accounts, deserved a shutout it was the old spitball king. Nevertheless, it must hive been of great satisfaction to Grimes to hold the so-called slugging Athletics to two hits, * LJ * - Safety-First Defense Tactics Not Wantea Canadiens and the Maple Leafs will renew their International Pros fessional Lacrosse League championship play-off feud at Montreal this evening, and it is hoped that in the interests of all concerned that "Newsy" Lalonde will instruct his players not to mar the contest by use ing safety-first defensive tactics. Of late the Frenchmen have been overly careful, much to the chagrin of those who are laboring to retain for indoor lacrosse the popularity the new sport has so justly earmed. In the game here last Friday Canadiens put nearly all their mane power back in the defensive ares arter they had gained the lead, They did the same thing when short-handed because of penalties; and ragged the ball at every opportunity. The Leafs, guided by Eddie Longfellow, have been taught to take chances, and to keep the ball almost conti ly in i Longfellow realizes--and has done so from the start--that the fans must be satise fied, and his players have obeyed him, Canadiens also played the wide open style until they reached the playoffs, when they adopted the tactics. that are now being criticized, ' Tonight's game is expected to be a hard-fought affair, With the title at stake the Canadiens will undoubtedly set a terrific pace, but the Leafs think that in the matter of speed the Montrealers won't have any advantage. The locals are hopeful that they will win, and take the title in two straight games. In the event, however, that the Frenchmen take the verdict, the deciding tilt will be staged at the Arena Gardens next Friday. ' Try thém yourself!
