C. A. A. U. Relay Swim BY.

JAMES CRUSINBERRY. For a baseball game in world's championship series, yesterday's combat between the Cubs and Red Sox was perhaps the quietest on record. It wasnt entirely due, horever, to the fact that we are at war- and concerned with deep problems which have taken away interest in the national game. The real reason for the lack of cheering and other noises was the character of the contest, It was purely pitcher's duel between Babe Ruth and Jim Vaughn, and while such a contest is intense, it seldom furnishes opportunities for thrills. Had the Cubs opened up with a batting rally on Ruth in the ninth inning there would have been plenty of noise.

Cheer When Ruth Fans. The Crowd present sat through the entire game, all primed to burst forth when the proper time came. But it never came. because Ruth never allowed an attack to go far enough to do damage. Only twice during the afternoon did things happen that aroused the home fans.

Once when Vaughn fanned Ruth In the fifth inning and once when he fanned him in the eighth. The crowd was fearful of Ruth's mighty'wallops, and when he was stopped in such a flourishing manner by the Chicago southpaw one couldn't help letting out a whoop. However, it was Ruth's speedy shoots over the plate that were harmful in this case, instead of his drives to the fences. Sparkling Play by Scott. 4 The only other thrilling incidents of the genie were such as would bring cheers only from a Boston crowd.

One was when Stuffy McInnis delivered the single that drove home the only run of the game, and the otherwas the speotacular fielding play by Everett Scott when he robbed Jim Vaughn of a hit by 'scudding over behind' third base, snatching a hot sizzler with his bare hand, and then, while out of throwing position, nailed his man at first. Had it been a crowd of Boston fans I in Comiskey's park there would have been some noise. As it is, the Cub rooters were able to save their throats' for today.

front of as perfect support as any world's series fan ever saw. Babe Ruth and Vaughn pitched almost run- tight baseball yesterday in the opening battle of the year's ultimate campaign and Boston triumphed over Chirako. I to 0, because Whiteman and McInnis put lusty singles behind one. of Vaughn's passes. From the ball player' is standpoint it vas a great game, because of its proxtit to perfection.

From the rooter's viewpoint it was tame and monotonous, because there were so few tense moments. Few of the plays were and the thrills were infrequent. The defense of both teams so far out- I classed their offense that there was little doing that was dramatic. Although the Cubs outbatted the Red Sox by the small margin of six singles to five, Ruth outpitched Vaughn by an equally small margin. The enemy linger was steady and confident all the ray.

usually had the batsman in the hole, and allowed only two of them 1 to walk, one after being beaned by a loose curve. Hippo Lacks Control. Vaughn at the start seemed to lack lint usual perfect control, judging by the number of times he went to three and two" before disposing of his man. But after the fatal fourth inning Hippo pitched a wonderful game, giving his opponents absolutely no opening to score again until the last round, when two bases on balls, one of them intentional, varied the monotony a bit; Ruth shone only as a pitcher. The powerful slugger.

who has done more than any other one man on the team to win the American league pennant tind whose swats have featured many of Boston's games this year, was as kelpiess as a real Babe in front of Vaughn's fire. Twice in three times at bat Ruth struck out, and there was I ring of genuineness both times, for be took a lull swing at the ball. The der time he drove to Paskert. Whiteman Weak-0, No. Whiteman.

He also Participated in the making of the lone rat by whiQ the game was won. The 1 only other swatsman in the game who bagged two hits was Paskert and both of Dode's were the real thing. There were only two plays that brought the rooters to their feet and both of them were made by the rival shortstops in the seventh inning. Hollocher's first and only terrestrial chance was a tough bounder from Scott which came to him in deep short.

The Cub idol came up with it on the run and winged his man at tot in brilliant fashion. As if he would not be eclipsed by a youngster Raft Countered in the other half of the seventh with a spectacular theft of a hee hit from Vaughn.

But you wanted I should write to you about the ball Well, Messrs. Sanborn and Crusinberry said they was going to do that and as far as I could see they wasn't enough data to strain one man alone to say nothing about 3 of us, but anyway we reached Comiskey's Pk. at 1:30 and had a seven course lunch composed of muskallunge, ham, tongue, turkey. chicken, roast beef and pork and Mr.

ComiSkey and Sam Crane set at our table and played the world serious of 1830 or something and Mr. Comiskey said you don't never see a catcher throw to first base now days like Buck Ewing use to and you Just watch this P. M. and -you probably won't see neither catcher throw to first, so I made It part of my business to watch, Harvey, and sure enough, It wasn't till the first inning that Sam Agnew threw down there. Well, Harvey, my expert opinion Is that what beat the Cubs was playing on till; south side because the minute they seen the field they thought it was a city serious.

And as far as I could make out, the crowd could of got into Mr. Weeghman's Pk. without violating the fire That reminds me, Harvey, that one of the Chicago baseball writers wiles Sept. 14 in Lincoln Park Chi 'coot, with Murphy Up, Wins $10,000 Charter Oak Same teams again today; same place. The Cubs now need four games to win and the Red Sox need three.

Tyler probably will be Manager Mitchell's pitching selection for today and either Bush or Mays will work for Boston. Ray Schalk, de luxe catcher of the White Sox, was present at the game. None of the other members of the former world's champions was seen. Thomas doffed his Jackie uniform to cover third for his former manager and took care of all his fielding work, but was weak with the stick, striking out twice. The park was profusely decorated with national colors and a band of music tried to buoy the hopes of the Cub rooters in spite of their inability to swat in the pinches.

4 With Tyler on the slab for Chicago, Ruth probably will not be used in the outfield, as he does not care particularly for the kind of stuff Tyler uses. Against a right handed pitcher Ruth will 'play left. Shean's busted digit apparently did not interfere with his playing. He fielded everything that came to him except Mann's bounder, which hopped over head, and batted for an average of .500 with one single and a pair of passes. The rival managers guessed it would be airtight from the start and played nothing but the old army game, ordering a sacrifice every time there was a chance for a run.

Once on each side the batsman attempted to advance runners after one was out at the cost of his own chance for a hits Yesterday' battle gave no new line on the respective merits of the two teams. The Red Sox showed the expected weakness against left handed pitching and Ruth demonstrated that he still is a great pitcher, for the Cubs are not weak against southpaws Just because they are southpaws. The Cubs did not set the stage in the conventional manner for McInnis, but perhaps Manager Mitchell had a system of his own to apply to the defense against Stuffy. It is doubtful if any one could have caught McInnis' drive, which won the game in the fourth, even if the outfield had been set for it.

17 at Olympia fields. Large Crowd, Considering. Many expressed surprise and disappointment because of the comparatively small crowd, but the officials of both clubs, as well as the members of the national commission. declared they didn't expect so many. while Charles Comiskey, owner of the White Sox, stated that he thought the attendance surprisingly large, considering the conditions this year.

"When you stop to think that most of our boys between 21 and 31 years of age are gone, and most of those at home too busy to get away, I think the attendance was large," he said. "Then, too, there are few out of town patrons because of the high railroad rates and busy times. I don't know that there has been as big a crowd as that present at a ball game in Chicago this year." No Excuse to Get Noisy. There were numerous attempts at noise making by members of the Cubs Claws club, who had a band awl sat directly behind the Cub bench. The only trouble was there was nothing to make a noise Before the game some enthusiastic Cub rooter stood outside the park offering to wager 10 to 5 on the Cubs for yesterday's game.

During the time he was watched no one was enthusiastio enough about the Red Sox to FOURTH INNING. BostonShean walked. Strunk bunted a fly to Vaughn. Whiteman singled. McInnis singled, scoring Shean.

TICKET LOST BY YOUNG FAN BUT SEES GAME The efficiency of the system of ticket distribution worked out by Business Manager Craighead the Cubs saved three loyal kids from broken hearts. All summer long the three youngsters saved nickels and pennies and denied themselves many a luxury, until the three of them accumulated jointly enough coin to pay for one ticket to the world's series games here. One of them, Harry Fox, was delegated to purchase the prize and each of them was to use it to watch ope battle on Comiskey park.

Harry made the formal application then went to the Cub park on Monday to obtain the document. On the train going home. the ticket disappeared and there were three desolate homes in Chicago that night But Harry reported the loss to Secretary Seys, who located its number by the record kept of all tickets sold. So a couple of detectives volunteered In behalf of the three loyal kids yesterday. They watched the seat until an adult man was ushered to it, then tapped him on the shoulder and asked him to explain to the Cub official how he obtained the ticket He convinced the detectives and the secretary that he purchased it innocently of an guard, and was released under promise to produce the guard today.

Meantime Harry Fox saw yesterday's game from the seat and his two pals will see the other two games of the series.
