Yankees and Giants Battle to a Ten-Inning Deadlock, 3-3, in Second Game of World's Series

Up in Thrilling Mound Duel
Emil Meusel's Homer in First Accounts for All of
Giants9 Bun Making; Brother Bob's Double
in Eighth Sends Ruth Home With Tying Tally
By John Kieran
Of all the astonishing things! The assembled horde at the Polo
Grounds eoudn't even give it a name. From a seat in the press box it
looked like a Mexican stand-off. The Giants didn't win. Neither did the
Yanks. The umpires lost an expansive argument, and Judge Kenesaw
Mountain Landis left the park with his judicial dignity bespattered by
the flood of abuse from the infuriated fans who hooted him all the way from
his field box to the center field gate, to Eighth Avenue, to his waiting
automobile, and to his ultimate departure.
Getting $50,000 a year evidently <
isn't all skittles and beer. From time
immemorial the appearance of flies in
amber has been noted by philosophic
poets, and there- are snakes in all va?
rieties of grasses. The learned jurist
with the famous shock of white hair
fell afoul of all these unpleasant cir?
cumstances. He had no more to do
with it than Henry Fabian or Rip Van
Winkle, yet the torrents of tribulation
swirled round his reverent head as he !
actually fought his way off the field. !
The decision that ended the drawn bat- j
tie in the tenth inning was rendered i
by Umpire Hildebrand in his capacity ?
of arbiter in chief for the day. To him !
should ^go the glory or the shame.
As a surprise party it was a wonder- i
ful success. Bob Meusel had just j
fouled out for the final Yankee casu?
alty in the tenth inning, with the score i
knotted at three runs all, when Pancho
Snyder gave the ball an affectionate
squeeze and started for the clubhouse
as Umpire Hildebrand turned to the
rtnnds and said, "(Jame called." Joey
Dugan, who was well on his way to his
position at third base, stood stock still
with his mouth open. He looked like
a pcntleman who had been crowned
with a bung starter at an Irish wake.
Aaron Ward, dashing toward second
base, received the shock full in the
face and ran around in small circles
until led gently to quiet quarters.
Miller Muggins went right up into the
nir, and had made no landing at a late
hour last night.
Then Tumult Arose
Then the tumult and the shouting
arose, and were loud in the land. More
people knew less about what happened,
why it happened and what would be the
consequences than at any similar per?
formance in -the history of professional
endeavor. Unnoticed by the spectators,
after the Yanks had tied the score in
the eighth inning, the two senior um?
pires of the game, Klem and Hilde?
nrand, held a conference and decided
just how far the game could go. The
result of their confab was kept a se?
cret, deep, dark and inviolate.
When Hildebrand sprang the trap'at
the end of the tenth and halted the
pastime, the effect was,the same as toss?
ing a bomb into a Sunday school gath?
ering. Nearly 40,000 representative
citizens of this fair country, not count?
ing Lord and Lady Mountbatten, start?
ed talking nt once and no two of them
agreed on any one point. The build?
ing of the Tower of Babel was* an or?
derly proceeding compared to the free
- for-all debate by the assembled multi?
tude. Resolutions were passed by
hastily organized groups of vigilantes
calling for the immediate hanging of
Judge Lnndis. He was the nearest
shining mark. Down with him!
Runners and liaison men were speed
? ini* from one radical gathering to an
Z other. The Yankee second game tickets
were good for to-morrow! No! No!
The Giant tickets were good for to?
morrow! A thousand times no! Rain
checks would be given out. Ha! ha!
Perhaps they would play a double head?
er! Had they hung Landis yet? What,
the umpires had escaped in the confu?
sion? Well, the best thing to do was
to storm the clubhouses and capture
the magnates before they made off with
the swag, the biggest gate receipts for
any single game of any world's series.
Go get 'em, boys.
At this point the whole issue was as
clear as mud. Colonel Jacob Ruppert
thought that to-day's game at the Polo
(irounds should be the second home
game for the Giants, and that yester?
day's drawn battle could be played off
as, when and if needed. Miller Hug
fcins had an idea that it would be the
home gamo of the Yankees to-day, but
that the Giant second game tickets
would be legal tender at the gate. Colo?
nel Tillinghast L'Hommedieu Huston
thought that it would be the Yankee
home game, and that the second Yan?
kee coupon would entitle the holder
thereof to a parking space for the
afternoon.
Huston Lose? Argument
It ia a trreat pleasure to announce
to a palpitant public that "Cap" Hus?
ton lost the argument. Last night be?
tween the soup and fish course at
the Commodore Commissioner Landis
issued a bulletin that settled the mat?
ter. To-day's frightful fracas will be
the third game of the series, the Giants
will be hosts of the Yankees and the
order of events will march right on
??s if yesterday's struggle had been
decisive instead of a drawn battle. The
clan McGraw will have whatever per?
quisites go with the wearing of the
white uniforms. Colonel Ruppert is
herewith proclaimed a good guesaer.
He wins the season pass to Central
Park for solving the riddle before
Judge Landis published the answer.
In all the excitement the great ten
inning duel between Battling Bob
Shawkcy and Jess Barnes was almost
forpotten. The deep sea sailor of the
Yankee crew shut the Giants out for
nine full innings and yet failed to win
his game. The mistake he made was in
whitewashing the clan McGraw from a
second innings start. He was just one
inning late. The nine blank frames
for the National Leaguers began at the
second and extended to the fatal
tenth, when hostilities were suspended.
It. was in the opening burst of fire
by the enemy clan that Shawkey was
badly wounded. Heinie Groh pounded
his fourth successive world's series hit
to center and Frank Frisch advanced
him to second with a single to left.
Irish Meusel sauntered up to the plate,
took a toehold, adjusted^nis sights and
fired a round shot squarely into<he left
field bleachers. "The parade is start?
ing early to-day," remarked the Giant
rooters in blase tones. Three runs for
the cla# McGraw, and the game hardly
..started. The honor of crashing out the
first circuit clout cfthe series also
fell to the National League. Further?
more, Judge McQuade fell a-figuring
with pad and pencil and announced
that at the rate the Giants were travel?
ing they would score twenty-seven runs
during the afternoon. He thought that
would win by several dusty furlongs.
However, as has been noted on pre-1
vious occasions, the gentleman who
remarked that "Figures won't lie" was
telling tarididdles at that very mo?
ment. Figures will lie, crawl, collapse,
and even roll over and play dead. The
Yankee chances could have been auc?
tioned off at this point without bring?
ing so much &? a boatload of German
,
?~
marks or eight cents, Mexican. Cap
Huston was prostrated, "It's the
heat" he moaned, but he was putting
up a false front. It was the blow
struck by Irish Meusel that nearly
killed Father Huston.
Had Right to be Discouraged
All tilings considered, the Yankees
had every legal right in the world to
be discouraged. Their ace of diamonds,
Joe Bush, had been trumped by Mc
Graw in the first battle. Here in the
opening hand of the second encounter,
Miller Huggins led his right bower,
and this joker Meusel ruined the party!
Talk about a friendly game! "These
boys are rough, very' rough" muttered
Miller Huggins from his reserved seat
in the dugout.
The one individual inside the park
who felt confident that the day would
be saved was little Eddie Bennett, the
Yankee mascot. As he handed each
player his bat. Eddie kept chanting
"We kin do it, big boy." The little lad
was right. They began to whittle
away at the Giant lead in their first
turn at bat, and they kept everlasting?
ly at it until they tied the score in
thc eighth. In the ultimate analysis,
though Shawkey and Barnes occupied
thc center of the stage, the outcome of
the struggle was strictly a family
matter with the Meusels. Irish struck
the Yanks the powerful blow that
scored three runs in the first inning,
the sum total of the McGravian damage
for the day, and Bob of the Yankees
drove home the tying marker In the
eighth inning.
It was an error by Beauty Bancroft
that let Joe Dugan skip past first and
continue to second on thc shortstop's
wild throw of his grounder in the
Yankee first. Dugan went to third as
the Bambino grounded to Kelly, and
the Pipp the Runmakcr bounced a
?ingle past Kelly that scored Jumping
Joe. In the fourth, Aaron Ward put
in a bid for fame. He died peacefully
In the second inning, and he fanned
out enthusiastically in the sixth and
ninth, but the fourth frame was some?
what different. He rammed a homer
into the upper portion of thc left field
bleachers just fornlnst the foul line.
By the time Wardie had danced around
the circuit the Yanks were only a run
behind, at 3 to 2.
In the'eighth the Battering Behemoth
edged into the picture. It was his only
chance of the day to put himself solid.
He doubled to left and went to third on
a towering fly that Wally Pipp drove
almost to the center field fence. Twc
men were out, and the count on Boh
Meusel became 3 and 2. "Hey, you Bob! '
shouted Huggins, "It's up to you tc
square the family with me. That othet
Meusel did a tur'ble lot of damage tc
us." Lanky Bob heard his master's
voice. The ball came right in the
groove and the Californian pickled it
to center for a pair of bases. G. Her?
man Ruth tied the score, and there the
mattcr rested, though the athletef
tugged and strained for two more inn?
ings in the purple twilight until the
umpires pried them apart.

Big Four to Meet
Argentine's Polo
Team To-morrow
WThile no plans have been made b*.
the polo committee of the Meadov
Brook Club for a third game betweei
the "Bip: Four" in Argentina, in th<
event that the latter should defeat thi
American team in to-morrow's game, i
is possible that arrangements may be
made for such a game, according t<
officers of the Meadow Brook Club.
Devereux Milburn, captain of thi
"Big Four," said at his home in West
bury yesterday that he had had n<
discussion at all with Luis Lacey, cap
tain of the Argentinians, relative to ;
third game should the two teams bi
deadlocked after to-morrow's contest
?"However," said Milburn, "I would no
j say that a third game would be ai
(impossibility should Argentina beat u
j on Saturday. But it will be a case o
waiting until Saturday's game is playe?
before we decide on what may happe:
I i? the future in the event of such
contingency as an Argentine victor
over us."
Jack Nelson, the organizer of th
Argentine Federation team, and it
I crnck No. 2, who was injured whe
his horse fell on him in a scrimmag
I in Wednesday's game, will play o
Saturday. He did not suffer a frac
I ture of the kneecap or' any serious ir.
? jury to his leg despite previous re
ports to the contrary. His leg was
I trifle stiff yesterday, but he was abl
I to walk around and spent the aftei
| noon at the residence of the Bryc
Wings, in Westbury. He said thcr
! was absolutely no doubt as to his bein
i able to get into Saturday's game.
Louis E. Stoddard, the "Big Four'6
[ No. 1 man, will also be able to pla
? on Saturday. He has recovered froi
; the shaking up which he received i
I Monday's encounter between the "Bi
; Four" and Flamingo, and will replac
j J. C. Cooloy in the "Big Four" line-u;
! Stoddard carried his left arm in
sling on Wednesday, but he assure
everybody yesterday that he would t
on deck for the big game to-morrow.
Rutgers Coach Pleased
With Work of Gibsoi
NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J., Oct. 5.
: Foster Sanford is so well pleased wil
? the ability of Gibson in the backfie
I that he began to-day to make a punt?
? out of the veteran end on the Rutgei
squad. Gibson was set at work bootir
vp spirals under the assistant coac
Mike Whitehill. He gets satisfactoi
distance, but needs training in sendir
the ball off quickly.
Rutgers indulged in a hot and strei
uous scrimmage to-day, in preparatic
for Saturday's battle with Fordhai
Head Coach Sanford culled hig squf
for the best substitutes availabl
many of them veteran letter men fro
last year, and gave his tentative va
sity a thorough work-out.
The first string line to-day comprise
Brennan and Dickinson on the flank

Lafayette Is Sure
Of Victory Over
Pittsburgh Eleven
EASTON, Pa., Oct. 4.?With "do it
again" ringing in their ears the La?
fayette College varsity football squad
left here to-night for Pittsburgh,
where on Saturday they will sneet the
Pittsburgh Panthers in the first big
game of the East on Forbes Field.
The squad of twenty-three players
and 'the coaching staff were escorted
to the station by the entire student,
body, the college band leading the way.
Arriving at the station a mass meet?
ing was held, in which every player
was cheered individually and the team
collectively.
"We are going out to Pittsburgh to
win," said Coach Dr. "Jock" Suther?
land, standing on the. steps of the train.
"Pittsburgh has been preparing for
Saturday's game since we defeated her
on March Field last October. We real?
ize Pitts' great strength and are not
overconfident. We know we must fight
for every yard we gain. Lafayette is
in fine physical condition.
"The men who needed a rest have
been given such, so that now we are in
At condition. We are prepared to put
up a wonderful fight."
So - called unlucky numbers mean
nothing to the members of the La?
fayette College football team?in some
respects. To-night when the team de?
parted for Pittsburgh for the game
Saturday with Pitt, which will be La?
fayette's thirteenth game since begin?
ning her wonderful streak in 1920,
there were exactly twenty-three play?
ers in the squad. But, as Mike Gazella
said, "thirteen means nothing to a good
team."
Despite this, the Lafayette College
management failed to give a player a
jersey with the number thirteen.
Bezdek Shifts Line-Up
To Bolster State Team
STATE COLLEGE, Pa., Oct. 6? Spar?
ing not a single member of the team in
practice to-day, Coach Bezdek handed
out some straight from the shoulder
talk to the effect that not a solitary
position on the P?nn-State varsity was
settled and that unless some of the
players showed a big improvement,
there would be a wholesale shakeup.
The Nittany coach made a number of
shifts in order to give every possible
candidate a chance to show. Simmons, a
newcomer, was sent to right halfback
in place of Carson and he showed flashes
of real football ability. Harry Greg?
ory, substitute halfback, was calling
signals on the second team at the start
but was soon promoted to the varsity
in place of Kerstetter.
Artelt, the big Philadelphia boy, is
being given a chance to display his
wares at right end in Hufford's place.
Schuster, Johnson and Flock have all
been tried at left tackle.
Mrs. Hurd Advances
To Golf Semi-Final
PHILADELPHIA, . Oct. 5. ? Mrs.
Dorothy Hurd, Pittsburgh; Mrs. N. P.
Rood, Wilmington, Del.; Miss Helen
;Meehan and Mrs. Caleb F. Fox, Phila?
delphia, reached the semi-final round
to-day in the Berthellyn Cup golf
tournament at the Huntingdon Valley
Country Club.
Mrs. Hurd defeated Mrs. Ronald H.
Barlow, Philadelphia, 6 and 4; Mrs.
Rood eliminated Miss Edith Leitch,
England, 1 up; Miss Meehan beat Mrs.
E. E. Marshall, Philadelphia, 2 and 1,
and Mrs. Fox disposed of Miss Flor?
ence McNeely, Merion, Pa., G and 6.
In the upper bracket of the semi?
final to-morrow Mrs. Hurd will meet
Mrs. Rood, while Miss Meehan will
play Mrs. Fox in the lower bracket.

The Center Rush
The mighty ctands but seldom leap
To let their raucous echoes siveep
Across the field to sound his fame
Or sing his glory in the game. %
Yet swift and true upon its way
a He puts the oval pill in play,
The center of a struggling mass
That doesn't help him make the pass.
And if by chance the pass goes wrong,
A bit too wide, a bit too strong,
How swiftly, with its flaming roll,
The Anvil Chorus sears his soul.
For what he gets he pays his price
And stands the human sacrifice,
Unnoticed in the battles' tvakc,
Until he makes his first mistake.
?** -i The Greatest Football Star
Is "Red" Roberts, the Centre College captain, the most valuable indi?
vidual football player in the game to-day?
At least the mighty "Red" gets the unanimous vote of Charley Moran,
his coach, with a number of scattering ballots from several other pre?
cincts.
After all, what other star can present such recommendations? Pic?
ture to yourself a red-headed young giant, six feet one inch above the j
ground, weighing 238 pounds in condition, fast, active and blessed with |
three hard seasons of instructive experience?
This, at least, is a pretty fair starter.
To this add an ability to punt sixty yards and throw a football some?
where between seventy and eighty. (Moran.testifies that he has seen Rob?
erts throw a football ninety yards on the carry?almost the entire length
of the field.)
Add also a wonderful ability at blocking, tackling and interference,
plus further skill and power at carrying the ball, and you get a still bet?
ter picture of the big Kentucky star.
When Roberts started training he weighed 251 pounds. He is now
clown to a lissom 238 and no part of an awkward flounderer. He was
one of the greatest football players of the year as far back as 1919, when
he astonished the stands by his great power and dexterity in stopping j
Rodgers, of West Virginia. Rodgers that season had a wonderful knack j
of running and then passing the ball when tackled. Roberts broke up ?
this system by shoving Rodgers down with the straight arm, in place of
tackling him, and Rodgers weighed 200 pounds. Only a young giant could j
have put this method through.
His Greatest Year
Last year Roberts rose even above the fame of "Bo" McMillin. After I
the Harvard game "Tack" Hardwick pronounced him one of the greatest I
football stars he had ever seen. Officials of the Centre-Auburn game j
went even further in their praise.
"1 have been close to football as player or coach for over twenty-, ?
five years," says Moran, "and I would like to testify that Roberts is the !
most valuable football player to a team that I have ever seen. I believe !
without any question that to-day he is the greatest football player in i
the world, and I believe those who see the Harvard-Centre game will j
admit it."
It isn't often that a young giant of Roberts's vast bulk is also quick
en his feet and quick with his hands, a star upon both- offense and de?
fense, good at carrying, passing or kicking the ball, and just as good at
blocking, tackling and interfering. "Germany" Schulz, of Michigan,,Nwas
this type on defense. .Schulz was six feet four, weighing 240 pounds. Yet |
he was as quick and as active as a quarterback, tackling at either end
of the line, an almost impossible barrier forever ^n the way.
Moran is confident that Roberts can throw a football twenty yards
further than any one else. Yet he is even ?more valuable at receiving a
pass. And more valuable still at letting some back run along in his pro?
tecting wake. For it isn't any too easy to jostle a 240-poundcr out of
the road, once he swings into action.
Judging from some of the reports of "Battling" Siki's mode of celebra,
tion after the Carpentier fight snd the entourage he carries along, his
arrival in this country won't do boxing a world of good.
But we doubt very much that any celebration will be in order after
his first fight. If he does get by and is then matched against Dempsey .
the entire Senegalese nation will wonder who tossed in the grenade as the
resounding thud takes place in the first or second round.
When Carpentier's hands began to crack his day as a champion was
over. His downfall started when he tri*d to match the durability of his
right fin with Dempsey's iron jaw. Something had to give way, and it
wasn t Dempsey's jaw. And a Senegalese attic is nothing to sock with
s tender knuckle.
Four Touchdowns
For Tiger Varsity
Against Scrubs
PRINCETON, N. J., Oct. 5.-In the
last scrimmage before Princeton meets
the University of Virginia eleven here
Saturday the Tiger varsity rolled up
a score of four touchdowns against the
scrubs this afternoon. The first line
teams were operating much more
smoothly than at any previous time
this season, as a result of the careful
drilling in the fundamentals of the
gamo which has been given the men
all week.
v With this improved attack, Newby,
Cleaves, Smith and Bergen made sweep?
ing end runs around the scrubs and
succeeded in enough forward passes to
score one touchdown apiece during the
afternoon. Coach Bill Roper is tak?
ing the Virginia game seriously and
after practice declared "Virginia al?
ways puts up a hard fight, and I am
expecting a real battle. My best team
will go into the game."
A squad of thirty-eight men will be
brought here by Virginia to-morrow
afternoon, and they will' remain in
Trenton until Saturday.
Picked Up at Polo Grounds
It turns out that ?Mike McNally had ;
to have a stitch takeji in the cut on his J
face that he sustained in fielding prar- ?
tien before Wednesday's frame, when |
n misguided grounder hopped up and i
hi', him on the cheek. No harm was J
done; except thc marring of his manly
beauty.
Charlio O'Leary is still nursing nj

However, it dot .*.'?? nifert him nr.y in

Grant answt red in the negative, and

Pat Moran, the Prince of Porktown.
also was observed stroliing through
the assemblage greeting old frj?2nd? of
the diamond. Pat said he was neutral, ,
and hoped both teams won.
When Heinle Groh singled to center
off Shawkey m the first inning he
got his fourth consecutive world's
series nit in as many official trips to
the plato. It looks as though Johnnie .
Rawlings would do nettling but. pick up
splinters on the bench thi:;. serie?-:.

The introductory inning was a ter
rible shock to thc Yankee clan. Brother ;
Bob chased Irish Meusel's home run !
right up to the bleachers before he j
gave up the hunt. Pitchers are the i
natural prey of the Meusel Tribe.
The Yanks had to go as far as the !
fifth inning of the second game before j
they could stop Heinie Groh from get-;
ting on base. Heinle considered first
base a stop-over point, not a terminus.
Jess Barnes drew a round of razz
berries for walking G. Herman Ruth
after Dugf>n had doubled in the third, j
Jess didn't deserve it. He wisely de-?
cided that -a base on balls was less !
damaging than a home run with two'
men out.
The circuit, clout by Aaron Ward in >
the fourth inning just grazed the aerial
foiil line all the way on its trip into'
the left field bleachers. Wardie paused
near first base, but the jury was still
out. When the ball finally fell fair he;
resumed his joyful journey.
