both were driving machines and
when a racer's machine goes bad on
him no effort can avail. In the
seventh Inning Carl Maya" machine
went bad. Not the whole machine, but
a cog. The cog waa at second ba#e

GIANTS ARE NOV
2-T0-1 FAVORITES
TO BEAT YANKS
Leading Series for -First
Time, Dope Is They
Won't Be Headed.
By C. A. LOVETT.
(Washington Herald and Ohioa** Tribune
Vow* Bureau#
NEW YORK, Oct. 12.?Tonight,
for the first time aince the' big
games got under way, the Giants
are out In front In the 1921 world
series and eleventh-hour wagering
I* at odds of 2 to 1 that they will
not be headed. They were outpitched
and outhit today but they
fielded better than the Yankees and
outlucked them. The result of the
flrst real, closely matched pitcher's
battle of the scries was a 2-to- victory
for the National Leaguers,
Phil Douglas, the old-time spltballer
getting the decision over
Carl Mays, exponent of the underlyind
fling.
Contrasting sharply with yesterday's
sixth game In which the hurling,
especially that for the Yankees,
was grossly Inadequate, today's
struggle was one largely confined
to the mound, a grimmatching
of pitching prowess by
two of the leading moundsmen of
the times. The day was ideal for
the service of both Mays and Douglas,
overcast skies producing a
gloom that added to the effectiveness
of the spinning bnwls of the
one and the sharply breaking salivary
offerings of the other.
The Yankees found the Giants
hurling ace for eight hits to six for
which the McCJrawmen thumped
Mays. and had the American
.Leaguers supported Blond Carl with
the finesse of the Giants defense
the clan of Huggins would have
triumphed and taken the lead In
tho game count once again. But
three misplavs by the Yanks afield,
only ono of which was scored nn
error, cost the game I?arty Luck
trailed entirely wth the champions
of the Hevdler circuit and the
Giants took full advantage of every
I break that came their way.

second inning brought the
National Leasrue cause from behind
and enabled the Giants to win out

hit In both runs for the
Giants today after fissures In the
Yankee defense had put men on
base. And Aaron Ward, the Yankee
second baseman, whose spectacular
fielding has been one of the bright
fpots of the series to date, gave a
life on base to both of the foemen
who were to tally. A mussy pja\in
1 ft center by Klmer Miller let
in the winning marker, yet no bobble
was chalked against him for he
was taking a desperate chance and
crossing in front of Fewster to cut
off Snyder's rolling double which
bounded azainst the center gardener's
shoulder, permitting Rawlings
to score all the way from first.
Douglas started Inausplciously
but improved as the tussle wore on.
After Fewster lifted to Young In
the Yankees half of the first. PeckInpaugh
slammed a double off the
fence in left field and reached third
while Frisch was throwing out Miller.
Douglas then knocked down
Bob Meusel's high bounder and
nailed him at first for the third out.
The Hugglna horde drew first
blond in the second, a scoreless
frame for l?oth teams In the first
five game*. Pipp fouled off |R.|
numerable pitches before he turned
a looplnc double into left field.
Ward dumped down a martyr bunt,
moving the sometime "plckler" to
third With the infield drawn In.

Rawlings and Kelly. Pipn counting,

Rawlings. McNally sliding Into second
to prevent a double play. Tn
so doine Mike wrenched" his throwing
arm at the shoulder and although
he played third In the following

upon to throw out two Giants at
first, he cave way to Baker at the
start of the Giants' third.

participate and will serve lr
the capacity of referee, umpire
field judire and head linesman
This combination will be put intc
operation for the first time nexi
Sunday, when the independents wll

NAVY SCRUBS USE |
PRINCETON PLAYS;
SCORE OwVARSITY
Middies Will, Not Be
Numbered in Big: Game,
Officials Decide.
ANNAPOLIS, Md., Oct. 12.?Coach
Folwell drove his Navy football
charges through a lo*g. hard pmc- ,
Klce this afternoon in preparation for
the game with Princeton Saturday, j
The varsity or "A" team was kept
on the defensive most of the time
during the long: scrimmage.
I'sing Princeton's general style of
play, the powerful second team
battered and rammed at the varsity
line and directed numerous plays
outside of tackle. The coaches
were thoroughly satisfied at the
work of the regulars, although the
scrubs once succeeded In invading
the varsity's goal line.
In course- of the practice practically
every player who is likely
to be used against t^e Tigers was
given a workout on the varsity.
Cullon, a halfback, who injured a
leg in the Western Unserve game
Saturday, has rapidly recovered, and
alL of the other players are in
good physical shape.
Wo?*t \umher Player*.
That the Navy players will not
be numbered in the big game
whereas the Princetonians will,
was the chief development in connection
with Saturday's battle.
Announcement to this effect was
made by athletic officials. Thus the J
spectators will be able to mor?
readily learn the Princeton men
figuring in a play tfcan they will
as to the Middies, except those
familiar with the latter. The Navy
management has aenerally shown .
an aversion to numbering their
gridiron gladiators, although Princeton
and many other institutions
lhave followed such a course for
several years.
Navy's line-up has not been definitely
determined. It is practically
certain, however, that the back field
quartet will be Koehler. Hamilton, '
Conroy and Rardhet, with Conroy!
giving the signals at the start. It |
Is not unlikely that Noyes. who j
looms up as the cleverest of the
backs, will start, although indlca-'i
tlons are that he will be held in '
reservo until the work of the!
above combination Is tried out.
Cndetn Prepare for M. r.
Although It was expected that I
the St. John's Collece cadets would j
j be put through a hard scrimmage
- today. Poach Krebn devoted the en- j
Itlre afternoon to drilling his pupils :
| along other lines. Rehearsing the
receipt of the klckoffs. handling ! I
punts and deadly tackling by the 1

program. Krebs annoucned that i
the team would be sent through a 1

| All Annapolis Is pulNn? for the j
* Cadets to down the Marylander*. t
Halthough it is realized that the Col- i

J mighty strong combination into',

say that the Marylanders will have i
