WHAT 1S THRERTENED IF THE BOSTON BRAVES WIN AGAIN TO-DAY : Plank Will Try to Turn Back the Boston Batsmen ---- One Desperate Man Grew Gay ard Caught a Bul- let. Philadelphia, Oct. JO.--1f the Boston iiraves beat "lddie'" Plank and take the second game of the world's series, to-day, they are going to demand that Philadelphia surrender the Liberty bell and adopt. '"lessie" as the municipal anthem. . At the present time the city of bro- theity, fatherly, or whatever sort of love it is, is now joining loudly in the chorus with the Athletics render- ing "T'here Goes My Nanny Now." The Athletic fans are mbt spreading *'laat ditch'® conversation as yet in discuss- ing the possibilities of to-day's game. The routing of Chief Bender shocked Father Penn from the top of.his hat to the silver buckles of his 'shoes. (One man felt so desperate, last night, that he hit a policeman on the head with 'a brick just to assert his inde pendence. I'he policeman answered the salute and a bullet hit Frank Gal- lagher, a twenty-two-year-old fan, in the thigh, which was the extent of past game casualties. Up to daylight, to-day, George Stal- lings hadn't hit or choked anyone since he throttled the iceman. As there sre several thousand in town who still don't believe all things they read in the papers as to what actually hap- pened at Shibe Park, yesterday atier noon, there was a line of nearly three thousand waiting outside the bleacher gates before breakfast to-day. As soon as yesterday's crowd was admitted to thg bleachers the line ior to-day's game Bgan to form. Trere were hundreds of all-nighters and at- ter midnight men and boys arrived in droves. 'l'here were but few who offer ed their places for sale. 'lhe police permitted them --to have boxes and stools to sit on during the long hours of waiting and venders were on the job with coffee, crullers and fruit, de- spite the fact that the cloudy weather continues to linger in the Vicinity possibly attracted by the big scrap the weather man predicted sunshine for the game this afternoon. ('onnie Mack has made no secret of the fact that he expects to start Plank, 'the Gettysburg hero, after the galloping Braves, and expressed voth ing but absolute confidence in the vet erah's ability to turn back the Laston batsmen. Will There Be Sunshine: Philadelphia, Oct. 10.--1t was cloudy and a very light mist was falling ear ly to-day, but Weather Man Bliss pre- dicted a clearing and sunshine before the time for the second game of the world's baseball series this alternoon How Boston Won on Friday Philadélphia, Oct. 10. Playing with the same sensational speed that marked their rush from last place to thee ~position of pennant winners in he National League the Boston Braves crushed the Philadelphia Americans here yesterday in the fin al game of the world's series by a score of 7 to 1. The victory over the two to one American League favorites was well won, no lueky breaks or baseball flukes figuring in the defeat of the famous Mackman clan. By sharp heavy and timely hitting the Braves piled up an offensive lead which, coupled with Rudolph's sterling box work and the general defense of his teammates, left no opening through which the Philadelphia club's attack could penetrate. The National league combination actually feels the certainty of ulti mate victory. Untried in a world' series, they have won decisively a new revord; for with their bats they drove Chief Bender, the Athlet'cs Jrest money pitcher, to the bench a feat no other club ever achieved against one of Connie Mack's twirl irs in a world's series. Fully 25,000 spectators saw the down-fall of the Athletics, and whil¢ the defeat shortened the odds in the betting, it has not shaken the faith of the average local fan in the abili ty of the Mackmen to come from be nind and conquer their younger anc presumptuous rivals, In the distribution of honors the lion's share went to" Ku dolph, the pitcher. It was his slow) deceptive delivery that proved the Mackmen's undoing.
