Winning o 13 OUT 16 SE BY VICTOI Tribe's Triumph Also I tegic Position as to I Contest La BY DENMAN NEW \ ORK, October 6..Althoui big advantage over the Broo in impressive fashion in the yesterday. 3-1. the National Leaguers tered the second contest of the set the tables on their adversaries and ev first game of the fall event has aimo< mate victor, and many of the Americ son. hailing their initial triumph with venturing the opinion, backed by not sion. that the Tribe will emulate the ball.the Boston Braves.by sweeping This achievement recorded by the men of Stallings in 1914 at the ex- j pense of the Athletics was unpreoc-; lented. and the odds against the In-j! dians paralleling it are even morel prohibitive than six years ago. when | a handful of the long-shot hounds:cleaned up at quotations of 10" to The Braves won four in a row to turn <! the trick, whereas under the new , t ules put in force last year the Jn- ( dians would have to register five con- ] secuuve vitiunvs. Win nt Ooiarl la Important. Statistics of the pastime show the < interesting and rather significant fact that on only three occasions has a team defeated in the initial combat of the autumn national event come < on to eventually win. while a setback J at the outset on the other thirteen ' occasions has presaged the downfall , of the vanquished. Thirteen to three j eonstitute a convincing criterion for | those prone to play hunches and pin i their faith on past performances. 3 While there is no discounting the i weighty moral effect redounding to 3 the advantage of the Indians by ] drawing first blood, it nevertheless Is a fact that defeat in the inaugural for the Robins is not nearly so punishing a blow at their chances as It would have been to the Indians had they succumbed. Had the outcome been reversed Speaker would find himself in the position of having used one of his preciously small staff of f hurlers with only two first-line box- j t men.Bagby and Malls.to carry on. Robinson, on the other hand, is so i plentifully supplied with twirling s talent that the temporary elimination r of one does not so seriously affect his < outlook. ! Story Repeats Itself. It was Rube Marquard. the veteran left-hander of the Dodgers who was eliminated from consideration as a pitching factor, at least for the remninder of the stand here, by the nea f- ly concentrated attack or tne moiaris. plus sterling support accorded Stanley Coveleskie. In starting Marquard his I atory repeated itself, for In 1916 Jeff Pfefter was the headl'.ner of the Robins, a position filled by Burleigh Grimes this year, yet Pfeffer did not start until the fifth and final fray, although he finished several of the early contests. By selecting Marquard to tilt the lid Robinson also demonstrated that he Is not influenced by the superstitions generally accredited to base ball men, for the wry-necked forkhander has not enJoyed much success as a world series pitcher. He opened both the 1913 series for the Giants against the Athletics and the 1916 set for the Robins against the Red Sox. and on each occasion absorbed a healthy licking. In addition, in the fourth game of the series with the Sox he was knocked out of the box. j All told. Marquard has attained vietorias on only two occasions, although he has participated in four sets of games. Both were recorded in favor of the Giants at the expense of the Red Sox in 1913. the year Rube hung up his nineteen straight victories. Marquard surely is no world scries mascot. He has been identified with few losers, a record that is tied only by Fred Merkle, a teammate on four of them. Mariuri Fairly Beatem. But while the Rube was fairly beaten yesterday, he was far from diBgraced, and had he been given the " aliber of support accorded Coveleskie the Indians would have been even harder pressed than they were to emerge dn top. He allowed the same I number of hits as Coveleskie. nve, uui permitted them to be bunched in a more disastrous manner, and also was handicapped by inferior control. His unsteadiness was a vital factor in his downfall, for while he walked only two men, the first of these free tickets was cashed, and being constantly in the hole necessitated his letting up to get the ball over at the expense of 1 effectiveness. This was apparent even in the first Inning, when he retired 1 the Tribe in order, winding up by < slipping a third strike over on < Speaker. 1 It was in the second inning that the ' Indians got the Jump on him, and I through absolutely no fault of his own. < Barns led off with a high fly that was carried at a queer angle by the strong wind blowing over Kbbets Field. Kilduff and Konetchy, either of whom could have caught it. acted as bashful as < bridegrooms, the ball falling untouched between them for a single. This evidence of a crack in the Dodger defense assumed the proportions of a fissure when Koney recovered me oau ana heaved wildly In the general direction of second base. Olson, who should have been there to take the throw, was busying himself doing nothing elsewhere, and Zach Wheat, the captain of the Robins, also was remiss in remaining stationary in his position in left field. As a result the. ball Iwunded out to the limits near the pavilion. Burns completing the circuit long before it could be retrieved. Pass Gives Second Has. After Olson had retired Gardner with a neat stop over second. Marquard pitched one too many balls to Wood. The youngster Scwell sent the former "smokey" one to third with a clean sin- gle to right and he scored on O'Neill's rasping double over the far corner. Sewell reached that station on this blow and tossed off a chance for another tally by poor Judgment when Ooveleskie rolled to Koney. The latter retired his brother Pole by stepping on first. Instead of remaining on third, where he could have scored ahead of O'Neill on any kind of a hit or error, Sewell dashed up and down the line to draw a throw and was finally doubled up before he could return. The Indians' third marker was 1 chalked un in round four rhroutrh the < medium of Joe Wood's hefty belt to , left center for two bases and O'Neill's second double, this one carrying to right between Griffith and the foul line and bounding to the fence. This ended the Tribe's offensive. Marquard turned them fe£<:k in order in the fifth and sixth. Mamaux did likewise in the seventh and eighth after the Ruhe had been withdrawn to let Bill Lamar ineffectually perform at bat for him. and Leon Cadore performed similarly in the final frame after Mamaux retired. following his unexpected single, to let Ncis run for him. Robins First Hit a Flake. For three innings the Dodgers were set down as fast as they came up. The first single off Coleleskie was recorded by Olson at the start of the fourth, when the little fly was zrphyred out of Wamby's reach. Ivan was'forced by Johnston. Wamby losing a chance for a double play by "momentarily fumbling. Griffith sent Johnston to seeond with a dandy safety to center. Then Ivan caine to the rescue with a fine running catch of a short liner to center from Wheat's bat. colliding with Speaker in the act. In the sixth, with one out, Olson sot iiis second hit and died at the midway after Jim Johnston sacrificed. Wheat paved the way for the Dodgers' lone tally in the seventh when he led with a screaming double to the barrier in right center. Myers' death sent him to third and he tallied on Ko(tclchy'is roller to Burns. The latter h f First Gan RIES WON I IN OPENER 'laces Speaker in Stra= 'itchers.Inaugural icks Color.

Shifts Prove Their Worth. Speaker's use of right-hand hitters against the southpaw shoots of Marluard proved a justified move. Sewell was the only left-hand sticker to get a safety, while Burns' dinky single resulted in a run. Wood scored on both occasions after walking and connected for a double, while O'Neill, another orthodox batsman, supplied both punches that cashed him. Kbbets Field was filled to capacity, but for some reason the occasion lacked the usual color of a world series contest, although the leaders held their customary point fcst before hostilities started and the usual mob of cameramen swarmed on the field to film the proceedings. Perhaps it was the absence of the musicians that Squire Kbbets dispensed with In order tiial their srata raiVht be disposed of at six bucks per copy, or maybe the chill wind accounted for it, but at any rate tlie whole < proceedings had a frostbitten aspect. Although at least one of the cast, Hy Myers, felt constrained to emulate a truck driver in swinging his arms to keep warm, the low temperature in nowise affected the fielding of the various performers, some of their feats being downright spectacular. Coveleskie's hide was saved on nu- morous occasions by nasny neiaing, Evans making one particularly meritorious catch. Speaker matching it when Wheat again was the victim, while Sewell fairly, scintillated on two jccasions. Tom Griffith provided the big thrill for ilie home talent when he dashed far back and leaped to spear Speaker's drive with one hand in the fifth, crashing into the concrete wall in the act.

MAKKONLY 85 PITCHES Coveleskie I? Much Steadier Than His Three Foes, Whose Deliveries Total 112. A comparison of pitchers in the first game of the world series shows that Coveleskie of Cleveland threw the ball up to the batter only S5 times in nine innings, while the total for his three Brooklyn opponents was 112: Marquard threw SO times in six innings, Mamaux 2ti in two, and Cadore 6 in one. Coveleskie. although yielding the same iiuuiuci ui niizs an ntc nvai Brooklyn pitchers, was much steadier than Marquard or Mamaux. Coveleskie threw 24 balls. Marquard 31, Mamaux 9 and ("adore 2. while their respective totals for missed strike? were 22, 21. 10 and 1. The Brooklyn batters fouled off nine pitches fot strikes and the Cleveland men 14 Only one foul occurred after twr strikes were on the batter, and that was made by J. Johnston of Brooklyn in the first inninjr. Only six Cleveland men went out on flies, while eleven Brooklyn batsmen went out by the air route. Kach side had 13 men grounding out. Marquard never pitched less than ten balls an inning and doubled that number in the second, when he heOitme unsteady after Konetchy's error let Burns score. Coveleskie's total in the seventh and eighth innings was thirteen each. Marquard had four strike-outs, Coveleskie three and Ma raaux three, all of which came in the I seventh, when he relieved Marquard. 'want leagues to act i on civilian tribunal { CHICAGO.

first game of the fall event has aimo<mate victor, and many of the Americson. hailing their initial triumph withventuring the opinion, backed by notsion. that the Tribe will emulate theball.the Boston Braves.by sweepingThis achievement recorded by the

men of Stallings in 1914 at the ex- jpense of the Athletics was unpreoc-;lented. and the odds against the In-j!dians paralleling it are even morelprohibitive than six years ago. when |a handful of the long-shot hounds:cleanedup at quotations of 10" toThe Braves won four in a row to turn <!the trick, whereas under the new ,

t ules put in force last year the Jn- (

dians would have to register five con- ]

secuuve vitiunvs.

Win nt Ooiarl la Important.Statistics of the pastime show the <

interesting and rather significant factthat on only three occasions has a

team defeated in the initial combatof the autumn national event come <

on to eventually win. while a setback J

at the outset on the other thirteen '

occasions has presaged the downfall ,

of the vanquished. Thirteen to three jeonstitute a convincing criterion for |those prone to play hunches and pin itheir faith on past performances. 3While there is no discounting the i

weighty moral effect redounding to 3

the advantage of the Indians by ]drawing first blood, it nevertheless Isa fact that defeat in the inauguralfor the Robins is not nearly so punishinga blow at their chances as Itwould have been to the Indians hadthey succumbed. Had the outcomebeen reversed Speaker would findhimself in the position of having usedone of his preciously small staff of fhurlers with only two first-line box- j tmen.Bagby and Malls.to carry on.Robinson, on the other hand, is so iplentifully supplied with twirling stalent that the temporary elimination rof one does not so seriously affect his <

outlook. !Story Repeats Itself.

It was Rube Marquard. the veteranleft-hander of the Dodgers who was

eliminated from consideration as a

pitching factor, at least for the remninderof the stand here, by the nea f-

ly concentrated attack or tne moiaris.

plus sterling support accorded StanleyCoveleskie. In starting Marquard his Iatory repeated itself, for In 1916 JeffPfefter was the headl'.ner of the Robins,a position filled by Burleigh Grimes this

year, yet Pfeffer did not start until the

fifth and final fray, although he finishedseveral of the early contests.By selecting Marquard to tilt the lid

Robinson also demonstrated that he Isnot influenced by the superstitions generallyaccredited to base ball men, for

the wry-necked forkhander has not enJoyedmuch success as a world series

pitcher. He opened both the 1913 series

for the Giants against the Athleticsand the 1916 set for the Robins againstthe Red Sox. and on each occasion absorbeda healthy licking. In addition,in the fourth game of the series with the

Sox he was knocked out of the box. jAll told. Marquard has attained vietoriason only two occasions, although

he has participated in four sets of

games. Both were recorded in favorof the Giants at the expense of the RedSox in 1913. the year Rube hung uphis nineteen straight victories. Marquardsurely is no world scries mascot.He has been identified with few losers,a record that is tied only by Fred Merkle,a teammate on four of them.

Mariuri Fairly Beatem.

But while the Rube was fairlybeaten yesterday, he was far fromdiBgraced, and had he been given the" aliber of support accorded Coveleskiethe Indians would have been even

harder pressed than they were to

emerge dn top. He allowed the same Inumber of hits as Coveleskie. nve, uui

permitted them to be bunched in a

more disastrous manner, and also was

handicapped by inferior control. Hisunsteadiness was a vital factor in hisdownfall, for while he walked onlytwo men, the first of these free ticketswas cashed, and being constantly inthe hole necessitated his letting up toget the ball over at the expense of 1effectiveness. This was apparent even

in the first Inning, when he retired 1the Tribe in order, winding up by <

slipping a third strike over on <

Speaker. 1It was in the second inning that the '

Indians got the Jump on him, and Ithrough absolutely no fault of his own. <

Barns led off with a high fly that wascarried at a queer angle by the strongwind blowing over Kbbets Field. Kilduffand Konetchy, either of whom couldhave caught it. acted as bashful as <

bridegrooms, the ball falling untouchedbetween them for a single. This evidenceof a crack in the Dodger defenseassumed the proportions of a fissurewhen Koney recovered me oau ana

heaved wildly In the general directionof second base. Olson, who should havebeen there to take the throw, was busyinghimself doing nothing elsewhere, andZach Wheat, the captain of the Robins,also was remiss in remaining stationaryin his position in left field. As a resultthe. ball Iwunded out to the limits nearthe pavilion. Burns completing the circuitlong before it could be retrieved.

Pass Gives Second Has.After Olson had retired Gardner with

a neat stop over second. Marquardpitched one too many balls to Wood.The youngster Scwell sent the former"smokey" one to third with a clean sin-gle to right and he scored on O'Neill'srasping double over the far corner.Sewell reached that station on this blowand tossed off a chance for another tallyby poor Judgment when Ooveleskie rolledto Koney. The latter retired hisbrother Pole by stepping on first. Insteadof remaining on third, where hecould have scored ahead of O'Neill onany kind of a hit or error, Sewell dashedup and down the line to draw a throwand was finally doubled up before hecould return.The Indians' third marker was 1

chalked un in round four rhroutrh the <

medium of Joe Wood's hefty belt to ,

left center for two bases and O'Neill'ssecond double, this one carrying toright between Griffith and the foul lineand bounding to the fence. This endedthe Tribe's offensive. Marquard turnedthem fe£<:k in order in the fifth andsixth. Mamaux did likewise in theseventh and eighth after the Ruhehad been withdrawn to let Bill Lamarineffectually perform at bat for him.and Leon Cadore performed similarlyin the final frame after Mamaux retired.following his unexpected single,to let Ncis run for him.

Robins First Hit a Flake.For three innings the Dodgers were

set down as fast as they came up.The first single off Coleleskie was recordedby Olson at the start of thefourth, when the little fly was zrphyredout of Wamby's reach. Ivanwas'forced by Johnston. Wamby losinga chance for a double play by"momentarily fumbling. Griffith sentJohnston to seeond with a dandy safetyto center. Then Ivan caine to therescue with a fine running catch of ashort liner to center from Wheat's bat.colliding with Speaker in the act.

In the sixth, with one out, Olsonsot iiis second hit and died at themidway after Jim Johnston sacrificed.Wheat paved the way for the Dodgers'lone tally in the seventh when he ledwith a screaming double to the barrierin right center. Myers' death senthim to third and he tallied on Ko(tclchy'isroller to Burns. The latter

Shifts Prove Their Worth.Speaker's use of right-hand hitters

against the southpaw shoots of Marluardproved a justified move. Sewellwas the only left-hand sticker toget a safety, while Burns' dinky singleresulted in a run. Wood scored onboth occasions after walking andconnected for a double, while O'Neill,another orthodox batsman, suppliedboth punches that cashed him.Kbbets Field was filled to capacity,

but for some reason the occasion lackedthe usual color of a world seriescontest, although the leaders heldtheir customary point fcst before hostilitiesstarted and the usual mob ofcameramen swarmed on the field tofilm the proceedings. Perhaps it wasthe absence of the musicians thatSquire Kbbets dispensed with In ordertiial their srata raiVht be disposed ofat six bucks per copy, or maybe thechill wind accounted for it, but atany rate tlie whole < proceedings hada frostbitten aspect.Although at least one of the cast,

Hy Myers, felt constrained to emulatea truck driver in swinging hisarms to keep warm, the low temperaturein nowise affected the fielding ofthe various performers, some of theirfeats being downright spectacular.Coveleskie's hide was saved on nu-morous occasions by nasny neiaing,Evans making one particularly meritoriouscatch. Speaker matching itwhen Wheat again was the victim,while Sewell fairly, scintillated on twojccasions.Tom Griffith provided the big thrill

for ilie home talent when he dashedfar back and leaped to spear Speaker'sdrive with one hand in the fifth,crashing into the concrete wall in theact.
