Hurrah Athletics! They are champions of the world and they deserve to be. There is no us of making excuses. They beat us and they beat us fairly.

In the seventh they anchored the world's championship. Bender opened with a fly to Doyle, Lord singled and Oldrlng put him on third with a single to center.

Oldrlng scored on Baker's drive, over played Capablanca, but has defeated large number of experts who beat Capa he was not in very longr.

Taking the world's series as a whole my summary' is this: It was In the main a battle of pitchers. We, who for many games' stralglU had triumphed over the best the National league could offer us, could not hit Connie Mack's mound men. They on the other hand were able to get what I think Is the greatest pair of pitchers in the world, Christy Mathewson and Dick Marquard. The Athletics, we will now all concede, won because of their superior hitting. They are a young, aggressive, seff confident club, who have had an eaay run of it the last month or so of the season while we were fighting for our laurels In the west.
