YANKS HAVE EDGE IN WORLD'S SERIES By DAVIS J. WALSH (I. N. S. Sports Editor) NEW YORK, Oct. 1.—In line with the current practice of finding holes in the Swiss cheese, it might be mentioned that, as a world’s series proposition, the Yankees hold a definite advantage over the Giants in the matter of familiarity with the playing fields. Having used the Polo Grounds as their home for a number of years, the Yankees are daily aware of its physical peculiarities. One cannot say the same for the Giants in connection with the Yankee Stadium. They have never played as much as a half-inning at the stadium, and although they hope to gain some familiarity with its contour by means of a workout there on Wednesday, it is altogether probable that they will step out for the opening game with barely a general idea of what to expect in the way of lights and shadows. No one can learn the stadium’s features in a single day. In the first place, its triple-deck grandstand throws a deeper shadow over the infield than any other park in the country. This may prove a decided handicap to Giant outfielders in the efforts to judge fly balls, particularly in the late afternoon. These worthless may also find some difficulty in solving the banked turf in front of the stands in left and right field, a feature that does not prevail at the Polo Grounds nor at any other national league field the writer remembers. The outfielder, chasing a long fly, might very easily be thrown out of stride by sudden inclines where his feet had been led to expect level ground. It took George H. Ruth, the well-known outfielder, months to accustom himself to the most peculiar SARGUM PROUTINGS Jack Dempsey is more of a real sport than we gave him credit of being. His explanation of the fight clarifies many things that has had the fans and writers guessing. The blow that almost cost Jack his crown was the first struck, and which had him goofy all through the first round. If Jack committed fouls it was because his brain was so befuddled that he was not responsible for his actions. Jack admits that luck and intuition saved his crown. He admits that just one well-placed blow would have rung down the curtain on Jack Dempsey as world’s champion. We admire men that are big enough to give the other fellow credit. It is hard to predict just what will happen when Jack and Firpo meet again. If Firpo develops a left hand, then look out. But Jack is wise enough now to keep away from that right. With a little judgment Firpo would have been champion today, and if he trains diligently he may be able to take advantage of any openings next time. Bert Ellison has been selected to pilot the Seals for the next two years. Bert fell heir to a great team, and whose teamwork and inside stuff had been well mapped out by a great leader. Bert had little to do but to keep the team going along the same lines. Next season he will have to fill in missing links and re-arrange the team play to fit those links. He will then prove his real ability to handle reins of a big ball club.

WASHINGTON CUBS LATE IN APPEARING Hundreds of baseball fans were disappointed yesterday at Richfield, when the fast Washington Cubs were tardy in appearing. Richfield Spanish athletes practiced all afternoon and were getting ready to go home when the visitors arrived at 4 o'clock. Manager Ortiz thought it not worth while to start a game at that hour. Richfield was in the best of condition and rarin' to go. Manager Ortiz has signed up Los Angeles Beavers for next week. POSTPONE AIR MEET ST. LOUIS, Oct. 1. — The international air meet, which was to have opened formally this morning, has been postponed to Oct. 4, 5 and 6, according to announcement made by the St. Louis air board, early today. Decision to postpone the races after inspection of St. Louis air field early today, which was flooded by heavy rains yesterday. Accidents were feared with a soggy field. BILLIARD EXPERT IN CITY AGAIN TONIGHT R. C. Downs, billiard expert of Detroit, who gave an exhibition of trick and fancy shooting here last Thursday night, will appear again. Bert Ellison has been selected to pilot the Seals for the next two years. Bert fell heir to a great team, and whose teamwork and inside stuff had been well mapped out by a great leader. Bert had little to do but to keep the team going along the same lines. Next season he will have to fill in missing links and re-arrange the team play to fit those links. He will then prove his real ability to handle reins of a big ball club. Burke of the Shell Oil team, is making a very creditable showing with Vernon. His work both at bat and in the field is showing up nicely. Dotty Bush should be doing his stuff for some club in these last few weeks. Dotty is a big-time player if he will just shake a little more jip into his playing. Jack Dempsey has accepted the invitation of the Assistance league to box for sweet charity. For charity, Dempsey will be considered a rank amateur. Jack has a little grudge he wishes to settle with Rocco Stramagliis and very likely will knock Rocco's head off, but that will be amateurish. Floyd Johnson is another amateur that will appear with Dempsey. It would be terrible if one of these amateurs would meet up with that professional, Sam Langford. Tagging All the Bases Cy Williams jumped two strides beyond Ruth in the home-run race by dropping a pair beyond the right field wall in Brooklyn. They enabled the Phillies to win, 6 to 4, in the 12th. "Mose" Solomon, home-run king of the minors, signaled his debut at the Polo Grounds by smiting a hit in the tenth inning that seceded the winning run in the 4 to 3 victory by the Giants over the Braves. The Indians finally defeated the Tigers, 4 to 3, and retained a dead man's clutch on second place. Jess Haines turned in his 21st victory of the season when the Cardinals defeated the Reds, 8 to 5.

In cold figures it reads Anaheim Elks 3. Shell Oil 9. The worst of the said tale is that the currin is rung down on Anaheim's hopes of being the So. Cal. semi-pro champions, having lost two games to the Oilers. The Anaheim boys will have to be content with being the California Elk champions. Our boys were badly beaten in the deciling game, but at that, the Oilers must all carry rabbits feet. Anaheim did not get a single break. Fairbanks has the Indian sign on our heavy stickers while Hughes is an open book at times for the Oilers. The Howling One was either very good or bad, bad and badest. He was either striking them out or letting them hit the fence with loud drives. Anaheim played the usual steady game in the field, if they could only have solved the pitching, but that pesky Fairbanks had their number. One of the bright spots is Anaheim's playing was the all round work of Doty Bush. He looked like a million dollars all through the game. Arch Hawkins caught every ball that he could reach but he surely made hard work of it. The sun must have had him guessing. Here is the sad story as it was unraveled: FIRST INNING ANAHEIM—Pendelton rolled to short. Buss C. walked and was caught at second on the hit and run play when brother Glen failed to hit to right for two bases. One run thrown away. Ramage popped to third. SHELL—Norek fanned.

D., Omaha, Neb., says: "I know, from personal experience in the practice that drugs do not cure disease. They mask symptoms, giving temporary relief, and in may effect a cure. Chiropractic the drugless method of spinal adjustment, is the bringing health to suffering humanity. Judge it by its results and one is bound to approval of one's reason." Lyle, M.
