GIANTS GUILTY OF CARELESSNESS IN CRUCI AL PART OF GAME By FRED C. CLARKE. Former Pirate Manager. Written Exclusively lor Pittsburgh Post. NEW YORK, Oct.

6. Judge Kenesaw. Mountain Landis, commissioner of organized baseball, was out at the Polo Grounds today as usual after his wild experience with the frenzied fans as the result of the umpire having called Thursday's world series game on account of darkness. It certainly was a wonderful experience for the Judge, as it gave him an opportunity to see what a great many players and umpires have had to contend with at various times in the past! While the baseball executive had nothing to do with the decision of the umpire, a lot of crazy fans were under the impression he had instructed the officials I Now, Another One. GENEVA, TECH.

-Coach Park put the finishing touches on the Geneva team today for the game with Tech at Pittsburgh tomorrow afternoon. The work this afternoon was very light, witih a two-hour blackboard drill tonight. The team is showing to a great deal bfctter advantage on the offense than at any other time' this year, and the Gold and White followers feel that the SkitxM will have a hard time keeping the locals from gaining ground. An entirely new lot of plays will be used Saturday and. If the team can show as good form, in executing them against Tech as was shown tn scrimmage, the spectators will be given a demonstration of real football.

6. THE SERIES BONHEAt. Witt hod forgotten Earl Smith held the pill. He thought that Jack Scott teas all ready to pitch. He wandered five paces from first and stood still.

Then White was caught as he snoozed at the switch. Thursdav's riotous affair on the Polo Grounds led to the tear that today's atteniance might suffer, but the crowd was about the same as in the preceding games in fact the seats were filled earlier than usual this afternoon and the gates were closed almost an hour before starting time. The sky was partially hidden by haze todav, and althouh the ganw was about an hour shorter than that of yesterday, it was finished in what greatly resembled twilight, and had play, extended Into extra periods it Is doubtful whether one more inning would have been possible. The high bluff just west of the Polo Grounds caused the shadows to settle much earlier than usual. Nick Altrock and Al Schacht.

the baseball clowns, today staged their usual funny ptunts. and they sprung an added attraction when they brought a large ape upon the field. The monkey was dressed in a baseball uniform and Altrock kept the fans screaming as he imitated the actions of the little quad-rumane. Miller Hugsins shifted his superstitious tactics today, and instead of presenting his pitchers in red flannel undershirts, he ordered them to wear the usual garments of less gaudy hues, hut even this -change failed to prevent the Giants from slamming AVaite Hoyfs offerings rather promiscuously. From the moment Babe Ruth collided with Heinie Groh and knocked him flat while being retired in the fourth inning, until the end of the game, both players were subjected to combined razzing' and cheering.

Ruth's appearance at bat would be the signal for a chorus of groans from the National League fans, while the other faction would drown out the jeers with applause. Groh would be cheered by the Giant admirers and hooted by the American League rooters. It was about equally divided. It developed that the majority of wise heads, including those of Fred Clarke. Christy Mathewson.

Umpire Billy Evans of the American League and many others, commend George Hildebrand for calling Thursday's -game on account of darkness. They believe Hildetrand was looking ahead and that his decision was the best and safest that could have been given under the circumstances.

6. Regardless of the strange upset of the dope I've got to stick to it. Scott was the unknown quantity and one which upset the dope. He did not fignre at all and suddenly becomes one of the most important elements in the series, as he stands to pitch again, anil with Nehf t-oubleome. hnncrt the dope seriously.

The Y'ankees figure to start hitting Sometime. Their past performances are too good for them to be stopped as they have been. Every element of the done has worked oat excepting their attack, which, for some mysterious reason has collapsed utterly. T'e Yankee pitchers have pitched precisely as they ngnred to do. the Giant defense and attnok works out perfectly; ypt against three different types of pitchers, the vaunted Yankee attack has wilted.

Thev are hitting nt bad ball and hiftinsr in untimely fuwhlon. They should get started tomorrow or go on record as the worst crash since tne Athletics fell before the Braves. 'HP MYERS IS STAR IN GAME BEFORE FOLKS EAST LIVERPOOL O. Oct. 6.

Jay Kirk Traded To Indianapolis By Louisville LOUISVILLE, Oct. 6. Jayson Kirk. first baseman of the Lou'sv'lie Colonels, who iast year net a world record for hits made (luring a regulation season, has been traded to the Indiajwipoils club of th American Association, it was announced today. The Colonels will receive Tex Covlnston, first baseman of the InJlanapolls team, in Kirk never has batted undT .300 since ccm-itig here seven years ago.

Ijist year he led the leajrue with a mark of while in th pam K-anon he batted .366. His trade to the Indianapolis club Is atid here to be part of an early reorganization plaa. Yellow Dogs Lose To Phillies, 8-4 HUNT I NO DON. 0-t. The National League barnstormers de-frted Grimson's Yellow Dogs of Huntingdon before a small crowd here this after noon.

Score: TODAYS GRID CARD HATOM they have been educated in the art of Baseball. For instance. Earl Smith acts lute a college catcher, for everv time the pitcher pitches a ball he walks 10 oeyond the plate, toward the wo ana returns the ball.

Frank Frisch buch arier everything, slides after giuuna oaiis and displays the spirit of a cohege player, which always is aggressive. It appears to me as if these collegians bring endeavor to a great many football tactics unto their efforts. Scott Never in Danger. During an Important series of thlsi kind, it is amusing to note that many players do not tret the nmwr imt of sleep at niht. Whether it is on account of the nervousness of the individual or other causes.

1 cannot eav. for instance. Witt had a lovely nap today on first base in the third inn ng when Smith made a throw to 'hat bag and got him standing up five feet from the sack. Whitev evidently was looking at the pitcher or that sign of Lolonel Jake Rupperts on the center field fence which once tniMimml smoo thing about real old-fashioned la ire Deer.

The spectators of both factions were delighted and were forced to applaud the play of Pipp knocking down ffin- nit witn men on first and second in the eighth inning which allowed Mc--Nally to reach the ball and throw to first -in time to retire the batter. Groh made a wonderful stop from Dugan'a bat in the same innln nnrl threw out the hitter.

In the ninth in- n.ng, with the Tankees ail puli ng for something to happen in their favor, Pipp drove a bail that looked like it was going to. center field for a single. whej Bancroft, by a wonderful spurt, grabbed the ball in his gloved hand, recovering in time to throw the batter Giants Get Careless. After Ruth had been dusted off with a pitched ball in the fourth Inning, he was caught try ng to steal before iScott delivered the balL Scott should have ran right after him and when he got close enough to a baseman the uroner play was to throw the ball to him, but ne roonsniy tnrew to second and gave Ruth plenty of time to get back to first. This was carelessness on the part of toe VjiaiiLs.

as wnen a team nas an opportunity to retire the base runner and fails, tru next man is liable to cause lot of trouble, particularly where the iences are short. CORSAIRS WIN FROM LAPORTE EASILY, 7 TOO LAPORTE, Oct. 6 Typical Pittsburgh weather greeted the Pirates when they invaded Laporte for their battle with the' local American Legion team this afternoon. Heavy fog hung over the diamond during mott of the game and a sudden shower- put an end to the fracas In the ninth with the score 7 to 0 In favor of the visitors. Maranville and Russell each drove 1n a run in the first frame.

Elkins. local wirier. was taken out the fourth when his arm went tad. Bender, who replaced him, held the Pirates scoreless until the eighth, when, after a series of singles, they hung up five runs. Morrison seemed to have little trouble In fanning local batters when be made an effort.

xms is tne opening game or tne season for the Panthers at home, and local fans are eager to see the 1922 Warner machine In action. Today's contest looms up aa anything else than a walkover for either team. Lafayette triumphed over the locals a year, ago at Easton, and Jock Sutherland brought to Pittsbunrh yesterday practically the same outfit which accomplished that feat. His gridders have been hard at- work for weeks and are admittedly tn the best of condition. "They are determined to make It two victories in a row over the Pittsburghers and the chances are that the fans this afternoon will be treated to a fine exhibition -of the autumnal collage pastime.

The Warnerites are primed for the fray. The importance of it has been dinned into their ears-ever since their first practice session and during the past week they have been given special training for today's com- iat, Warner has not overloonea a bet, lor he anticipates the toujthest kind of a contest. ha-s equipped his men with new plays, which will be tried for the first time and the Eastonians may be treated to a surprise or two in Pitt's style of piay. Warner's eleven will not be as heavy as he miRht select, but he has carefully werghed the abilities of everv- man on the squad, as well aa their physical condition, and has selected the men who he tmnns win oest serve his purpose and put up the best frame. He admits that never has he bad- so much difficulty In deciding upon the best combination to use In a game.

Pitt will start the Earn with Jordan and Williams at the ends, Simpson and Fredette at the tackles, Sack and Clark at the Bowser at cfnter. Captain Holleran at quarterback, Flanajran and Anderson at the halves and Colonna at fullback. This will be Captain Holleran's first start of the season. Lafavette will have Berry and O'Connell at the terminals. TTendergast and Pelbel at the tackles.

Captain Schwab and Mitinger ft the guarOs mt! at center. Brinnan, nj ner. Gazella and Cbicknosfci, in the back field. Indications point to a banner turnout. Interest in the gajr.e has been running hlsrh for some time, and possitily no -more attractive home opener could have been arranged.

The Pitt students will be on deck In full force, and Lafayette wui not without rooters. A bisr pet-together meeting the Eamoniarm was held last night at the University Club and the fullest support was promised Sutherland and his men. Penn Stale. OTATE COLLEOE, Oct.

UNLESS THEY SHOW BETTER, SERIES MAY OVER ON SUNDAY Confinupd From Preceding Page.) a fast peg to catch a man off base, just a sort of Idle practice throw. The ball sailed slowly to Kelly and Witt continued to stand some five feet from the bag and' act like he was think ns. 'Hoffman, who was supposedly coaching at first, was also thinking about something far remote from the ball game of the moment. Kelly walked five feet from the batr and disturbed Witt's reverie bv poking him in the slats with the ball. Witt acted like a man just wakened from a sound slumber.

It took hrm several seconds to realize lust what had happened. Then he recalled that he was a ball player at the Polo Grounds and realized that he had been put out. About this time, Hoffman, the coach, yawned and opened eyes and started about and ftot some of the recent news of developments Immediately about him. The Yankees dhl a 'lot of dumb stuff during the day, but the above incident Is about typical. The.y played dumb, listless baseball and acted throughout like a lot of men sentenced to stay there and suffer just so long and be defeated In the end.

They list, 3 to 0, and they are lucky the score was not larcrer. If they play the same kind of baseball on Saturday and Sunday the series will be over and the Oiants in with -four straight, interrupted by Thursday's t.e. They may come back on Saturday and whale the Giants rag-Red, but if they do they'll be a much different hall club than the one that played like a lot of sleepy sandiot suckers today.

Landis Helps Players. Judge Landis In his characteristic way demonstrated to the people that ho is out and above board when he was accused by these excited spec tators of having- called the game for the benefit of the clubs so that they would hare to play another same and fatten their gate immedi ately came out and displayed the right spirit for the interest of the sport and turned this large sum of money to charity. It looked like a hardship the players, who are inter sted in these receipts, in cam they should have a bad day affecting- the t-tendance In the next two from which they are to derive their share.

But. in the long- run. with an individual like Judge Landis looking-after their welfare. I am sure it will be very to them, as he- haa proven by his actions -that he is Ce termined not to allow anything- to de velop that will put the, game in disrespect. The Giants today were Imbued with fighting spirit through the presence of Jack Dempsey, who was on the bench and shook hands with ail the bo- and had his picture taken with several nt McGraw's men.

In the fourth inning Babe Ruth was' on first base and he tried to take third on a hit by Bob Meusel that went through Kelly. Frisch recovering the. ball and throwing to third, getting the Bambino by 20 feet. With no chance of reaching third, it was a little out of place for a. man of Iiuth's weight to deliberated run with aU his speed and force into Heinie Groh.

knocking the Giants' little third baseman about five yards. Aggressiveness, In my opinion, is all right. If a baseman is trying to- keep a base runner from getting into the bag, rt is perfectly proper to get him put of way if possible. But in case, of 'Ruth today, with no chance left, it looked as though he was very much peeved about the manner In which he has been missing these slow balU offered to him by the Giants' pitchers. It appeared as if there was going to be a mixup, aa little Groh went after the big Bambino and it reminded everyone of a bantamweight tackling Jack Dempsey.

It was very fortunate for the Giants that the two did not get together, as both would have been put out of the ganie. and as Groh Is coine fo well, and Babe so poorly, this would have worked a handicap on the Giants. Babe Seeks Revenge. This Tittle piece ot dirty work seems to have been held over from game No. I.

as Groh in stealing second in that contest jumped high in going into second base and the Yankees were Under the impression he was trying to "get' one of them. I think Groh's attempt to steal and slide on that occasion was perfectly all right, as he was striving to reach second station, i My impression of the placing of the umpires in a series of this kind is that the, present system might be greatly Improved upon. If the people will note. Bill Klem is a great man on judging balls and strikes, as be umpires SO per centof his games behind the plate. I think the same thing holds in the American League with Brick Owens, while McCormick and Hildebrand work a similar percentage of contests on the base.

It looks as if the umpires who are the best behind the plate should work behind the plate and the same rule should apply to the base umpires. According to the system now used, each one takes his turn behind the bat regardless of whether he can give the best service there or not. Many people may not really appreciate the real importance of one strike or one' ball. In my experience it has changed the result of many a game, and this is too important a series jr experimenting. Take McGraw or Huggina for instance.

Tbey would not change and put an ln-fielder in the outfield and an out.lelder in the Infield, simply on account of the conditions which existed in a world's series game. Why then should the umpires be switched? Smith, Frisch, Collegians. It Is a Stands and watch the various tndrrid- I tials playing, as a great-many -of thm, Papaoana E.

H. Vrceland Kooney F. Welch DETROIT, Oct. 6. The Duqueana University gridiron team, 30 strong arrived here tonight prepared to give the Detroit University eleven one of the hardest battles of the season here tomorrow afternoon on vin field.

Detroit is the favorite by virtue of their 44-0 victory over the Dukes two years ago, hut it Is understood that the Pittsburgh aggregation is much stronger than they were at that time. The ticket sale for the game has reached tne 35.000 mark and it is ex pected that over 20,000 fans will wend their way through the gates of Navin field tomorrow. Al Ballin, one time Princeton University star and a Walter Camp selection for his a'l-American tearr in M4, is coaching the Pittsburgh team this-year and, although they were defeated in the opener, he has developed a band of green players into a well oiled combination that may cause heavy damage here tomorrow.
