VUEh LAURENS, SOUTH CAROLINA. WEDNESDAy, OCTOBER 19, 1921. NEW YORK GIANTS COP WORLD TITLI Deciding Ciame of Series Won by Mat gin of One Him. Contest. Ended i Blae of Glory. New York, Oct. 13.-World chain -pions, 1921-the ;New York Nationa 1eague 3aseball club. The Giants won the title, wlic will bo theirs for the next year, bI defeating the Yankees4 in the eight game of the world ,*,eries at the Pol groun(18 today. The American leagu cliampions died fighting hard in classic twirling (lljl between thei( pitch.i1ng act, WNaite 'lloyt, and Ar Nchf, the Gflants' star left 'hander 'However, they lacked the necessar; punch to win, the National loagu team taking the game by the score o I to 0 and the series, flive games t three. The Giants' victory gives Manage John J. McGraw his second world' championship leam. The New Yorl ,Ntionals, seven times pennant winl ners under McGrar.v's management captured the world's series agains the Athletics of the Ameican leagu in 1905, Ibut, although winning th( bunting live times sin'ce they hav< been baffled every time until this yea in their quest for world honors, twic( 'bowin-g to the Athletics, once to th< 'Red Sox and once to .the White So: in otqher comlats. This year with i National league entrant that ha. shown its high class by coming fron behind late in the penant race am 'heating the tPittsburg Pirates to th( flag, the world's series told a differen story. Off to a poor start througli their loss of the first two games o the series, the Giants gamely cam( back, speedily evened up the serlea and then, with hut a slight let ui while getting their second hwind rounded into the stretch with a rus -and pushed through with thre< straight victories to their finl. tri umph. In every victory, except to day's, they came from behind to win Thus one of the best and most hotl: gontested series in the history of ti sport was won clearly, and, in th( final analysis, decisively, by a clul whose gameness and all around abil ity of the highest grade will be gel crously conceded. As for the underlying reason fo the success of th AMcGraw men thi experts may differ, but there seem little cause to doubt that the inos 'widely ipropounded opinion will b< that it nyas because of a preponder ance of high class pitching ability The series showed but two of Man ager fliggins' twirlers capable o pitching winning hall-Mays an Hloyt-while the Giants put forwar< a trio of master workmen in Doug las, Barnes and Nehf. Outhit by the Giants in nearl: every game und by many points ft the series as a whole, the Yankee, none the less made a hard fight o it by their smartness in manufactur ing runs out of scant material an1 the superb work done by 'Mays ani Hoyt in six of the eight battles. Thei championship craft weont (down iit flag flying and tonight their loyal sup1 wrorters were tendlering condolence: over the loss of the series with con gratulations upon the showing thi Yankee players hiad mnade in the firs world series a New York Americau league has ever' earned the right t< compete. As for the flnal and diecis lye game of tho series, the winning o it was due to the sup ierb pitching o Neht against a mnoundlsman to whon ho had twice lost the decision earlie in the series. Allob~ving the Amerleal league batsmen but four hits, non of them better than singles and thirei of them coming 'with two men out the crafty southpawv again and agai turnedl the Yankees back in order o baffled their determined efforts to pu across the solitary run for which the; were struggling all through the con test. Hardly -a whit less creditable wva the performance of Hoyt, the Yan kee youngster. IHoyt was in troubi in several innings, but except in th fltal first when the Glianta scored thei only tally on two passes and an errot he worked himself out brilliantly once aveith the running catch by Few liter to help along. Toward the ens he was going stronger than ever, re tiring the Giants In order in the eighti and ninth. The game, won by the (hiants i1 the first innin-g, wvas robabiy ave for themi in the ninth thy as brillian a fielding performance as has heel seen on thQ diamond in many a d 'One Yanikee had becn retirecd in th CLINTON NEWS -* * * * * * * * * * . * * * * .

This one was "Babe" Ruth, again in ulform, but confin ing his activities heretofore in the gaeio to the coaching lines. The Yankee fans, who had been for eight inings watching that one lonely tal r ly of the Giants loom larger and - larger, picked up hope and cheered I wildly ats the "Damlbino" stepped to ithe plate to bat for Wally Pipp. Thel - ionie run king made a valianit try Sbut his injuredl arn' had taken the powver from his swing, andl the best lie hecould (do with Nehf's puzzling deC - livei'y iwas to ground 'weakly to Kelly. Aaron Ward wtas more fortunate. lie tvaited out Nehf, who hiad been somewhat wild for several innings, > ad finally walked. -Frank Baker', again in the line usp in place of the injured McNally, ciamel next. ,With the count 3 to 2 he met one of Nehf's offerings squarely. It shot towards right field1, skimmning the groundi far to thme left of John Rlawl 3 ings. Thue rap looked like a sure hit and with Ward legging it for third it ,ipromnisedl to put tho Yankees is a favorable scoring position If it got by. But it (1id not pass. Throwing himself t at the skimming spher'e Ra'wlings, amid amazed garos from the crowd, .reached out and clung to it with his left hand. Rolling over and transfer 4 ilng the ball to his right hand Rawv lings made the throw to Kelly at first 3 while still on tlhe ground, getting ilHaker by several feet. It was then Kelly's turn, and with a lightning like' ,and accurate throw he shot the -ball ,across the diamond into the hands of -Third Basmemnan Frank F'risch. A I cloud of dust flew up over third as - Ward slId into the bagt F'rom the m idst of it Umpire Qulgley's' formi emerged, his right arm flung forth motioning the runner ouit. The don ble play had been completed, the t Ithird Yankee of the Inning had been .:tiredl, the gamo was over and the . Olants had won it and the 'world's 3 chazmnpionship.
