RUTH HOMES TWICE; YANKEES WIN, 4 TO 2
(Continued From Page One)
Giants followed shortly afterward and proceeded to indulge in batting practice.
Casey Stengel, who won yesterday's game with a home run in the ninth inning, staked the customers to a mild thrill by socking the first ball pitched to him in batting practice in right field stands.
Nehf was eliminated as a pitching possibility at an early hour when McGraw sent him out to pitch to the batters in practice.
Manager Huggins indicated he would pitch a southpaw, Herb Pennock.
NEW YORK, Oct. 11.—Conducted on a basis of left hands, the second game of the world's series between the Giants and Yankees, otherwise the thinkers and the non-thinkers, will be shifted to the Polo Grounds this afternoon, with Art Nehf and Herb Pennock as the probable pitchers. They are the present nominees for the game, if played, this being a matter of some doubt.
The day dawned dark and threatening with a right mist hanging over Coogan's Bluff and a threat of rain in the air. Cloudy to partially cloudy is the official forecast, but it failed to do justice to the early situation.
The morning was as dark as a colored man's arm-pit. Because of this some were inclined to believe that Miller Huggins would vote for Sam Jones over Pennreck, the former being a fast curve ball pitcher and the latter a gentleman with no more speed than the average steam roller.
McGraw, it was thot, will abide by Nehf, altho he has any one of three men he may deem suitable to play.
SARGUM PROUTINGS
Out hit 12 to 8, yet 5 to 4 victors, is the Giants' record for the first game of the world's championship play of 1923. The Yanks had a three-run lead in the first two innings and looked to be sure winners, but that human dynamo that directs the Giants refuses to recognize any handicap as defeat, was ready, when the breaks favored the Giants in the third, to manipulate his players to the best advantage and drove them into the lead with a four-run inning.
With the tide of victory turned, the Yanks began to take foolish chances in their efforts to win. A Yankee rooter could say that the breaks went against them, but the Yanks made the most of their bad breaks. The two great teams demonstrated that one is ruled by a master and the other is directed by a smart manager. In a pinch the director goes unheeded, but the master is in control all the time.
Miller Huggins made a serious mistake right on the start when he selected Waite Hoyt to pitch the first game. Hoyt has the ability if he would tend to the pitching and let the other members of the Yankee organization tend to their respective duties. Hoyt has many times openly criticized his manager and the other members of the team, but he never makes a mistake himself. No man, laboring under the attitude of mind that Hoyt is, can do his best work, nor can he stand up under great strain. Today is another day and we shall see who makes the mistakes.
Since the retirement of Roy Mabee the Anaheim wrestling fans have not had much to think about.

Since the retirement of Roy Mabee the Anaheim wrestling fans have not had much to think about. Roy allowed Bool Montana to run a challenge over him and old Bool feels real cocky about it. Bool wants the people of Anaheim to see what a real wrestler he is.
The latest is that he wants to meet Charley Olsen here. They claim Olsen to be a real wrestler and that he would give the Bool much to think about. If any promoter wants to stage a wrestling show here there is their chance.
I guess old Roy Mabee has settled down to retirement for good. He loves to bask in the heaven of his home, where the air is heavy laiden with the scent of orange bloom. With his pipe and arm chair he loves to watch through the open window, the bantam cock strut his stuff as boss of the farm yard. Roy laughs and thinks that he once aspired to be boss of all wrestlers, but that day has past.

SEVERAL PEOPLE HURT IN ACCIDENT
Several people were evidently seriously injured last night between 10 and 10:30 o'clock at the bridge on the boundary line between Orange and Los Angeles-co's between Anaheima, and Long Beach in which a Ford coupe was almost a total wreck. A man with blood on his face but who did not give his name used a nearby telephone to call the Long Beach hospital for an ambulance, but when the ambulance driver arrived the injured had already been taken to another hospital in a private car. The details of the accident are not known. There are splotches of blood on the pavement, and strips of a woman's petticoat lying about show that means of first aid were evidently used.
START SOON AS JUDGE LANDIS IS KODAKED
(By John P. Medbury)
(Written for International News Service)
NEW YORK, Oct. 11—Judge Landis started off the world's series by sending mental messages to the newspaper men telling them that the game could begin any time after he had been photographed.
His annoyed white hair made every California fan homesick. They couldn't gaze in the direction of his box without thinking they were looking at Mount Shasta.
The crowd of 60,000 people was a marvelous spectacle. One man who didn't know anything about baseball thot it was a convention of Peggy Joyce's ex-fiancees.
Most of the ushers wore bright red coats and were closely guarded by policemen to keep anyone from shooting them, thinking they were British soldiers.
While Waite Hoyte allowed everybody else to hit the ball, he was careful not to let his own bat do any damage to it.
Hoyt was very anxious to reach first base, but he had to wait until after the game to get there.
Bentley fouled a ball into the stands which came so close to hitting Judge Landis that several camera men took slow motion picture of his gray hair turning white.
In the fifth inning, Ruth stepped up to the bat with a round tripletet, but he took a stopover at third.
Then Babe tried to steal a run. He had his mind on home, but the catcher had his foot on it first.
When he knocked at the door of the home plate, he was out like a housewife on the first of the month.
The fans in the boxes needed care citement like this to take their minds off the $6.60.
Stengel hit the sign board in left and knocked three hairs out of shaving brush advertisement.
It was a gorgeous pop and took at his time tagging the bases. He looked ed like a night watchman making the rounds.
Stengel was a hero, but he did no use his head. He had so much ease that he could have scored two runs by going around the bases twice.
The next time when Stengel comes up to bat, the outfielders will be waiting for him in taxicabs.
The catcher could fool him by tying a string to the ball and pulling it back as soon as he hits it.
Stengel's home run was a surprise to everybody. He couldn't believe it himself until he read about it in the newspapers.

HARRY F. DIERKER,
Secretary.
In addition to the above financial report, for the benefit of those who have subscribed to this river protection work and are not familiar to the work that has been done, it might be well to explain that:
This committee has constructed, along the north and west bank of the Santa Ana river for a distance of approximately 7800 feet, a dyke constructed of pling, creosoted timber, heavy hog wire, and sand embankment, all of which has been put in according to plan approved by the engineers of the Santa Fe Railroad Company, Southern Pacific Railroad Company, Southern California Edison Company, Southern Counties Gas Company, as well as the Engineering Department, of the City of Anaheim.
After the construction of the sand levy, it was found necessary to construct a roadway along the top of same so that rubbish might be dumped along protection work to further strengthen same, and after conferring with engineers and other men experienced in this kind of work it was decided by this committee to gravel the entire roadway along the top of same so that rubbish might be dumped along protection work to further strengthen same, and after conferring with engineers and other men experienced in this kind of work it was decided by this committee to gravel the entire roadway of nearly one and one-half miles. This expense explains the payments made to Sparks & McLellan of $2,393.08.
Another item that might need explaining is the warrant No. 15 to R. E. Blaine and others of $1350.00, covering deed for right of way. Although the greater portion of right of way was deeded free of charge this committee found after the work had been started that R. E. Blaine and others would not grant right of way through their property unless they were paid for same. Condemnation proceedings might have been resorted to, but it would have meant considerable delay, and as this committee thought it advisable to have the dyke constructed before the winter flood waters of 1922-1923, it was decided to pay the amount demanded by these parties rather than hold up the work.
