Hubbell AnjJQ-Itaffing Are Slated ForHurling Duty; Rain Forecast In New York

(By ALLAN GOULD (Associated Press Sports Editor)

NEW YORK. Sept. 29-—(CP) —Damp and dismal weather had two linker 100151" "n Pfellﬂrﬂllons lor the start of the world series between New York's Giants and Yankees at tho Polo Ground.

The third one may be slipped across in the form oi conditions war- rsniing a postponement of Wednesday's opening game, featuring a pitch- lng duel between the left-handed Carlo “ScrewbaiP l-lubbcll of the Gun!‘ lml rilhl-hlllldld Charles “Red" ltufiing oi the Yankees, but sll hands had their fingcl! crossed while hoping ior the bqt,

Weather forecastr-“continued cold and prttlrisbly raliW-chilleﬂ pp‘- pet-ts for a capacity crowd at the National League park, even with all

reserved seats sold and speculators _

g fancy prices from fans ar-

riving tickctless irom many parts of the continent.

WEATHER nslvrraus

ENTHUSIASM

Upwards of three-fifths of the Polo grounds’ capacity oi nearly 52,000 has been sold 1n advance, but the weather appeared likely to put a dampcr on the enthusiasm oi’ fans seeking admission to the un- reserved stands at $3.30 or the bleachers at $1.10, starting at 2:30 A. S. T.

Only s handful of men seeking the distinction of leading the line into the bleachers continued their smund-the-clock vigil tonight out- side the National League park.

Today's rain washed out the workouts planned by both teams on rival grounds. The Yankees record- breakirlg “Clouting circus" thus will swing into action against Hubbell without any preliminary practice in the Polo grounds, considered a hap-

py hunting ground ior home run hitter-s. No decision to postpone the

opener will be reached until con-

.ditions are examined, overhead and

under-foot, by Baseball Commis- sioner Kencsaw Mountain landis tomorrow, around noon time.

The Giants, with the ace pitcher oi baseball in Hubbell, likely will he the beneficiaries oi any delay. The more rest Hubbeii gels and the oftener he can be shot against the record-smashing "Murderers Row” of the Yankees, the better will be the ultimate chances of victory for the National League Champions.

' , TERRY’! PLAN

Manager Bill Terry's program now calls for his kingpin south- Oow to work the first and fourth games, with any subsequentassign- rnent depending on developments. ‘hrry would not hesitate to call on Hubbell ior o. relief trick, if it a-P- veareli such strategy would be de- oisive. . _

l-lubbell, by his own admission. prefers warm weather to be at his best. From the Yankee standpoint, therefore, the hope exists oi being lble to pin the great lefthenders ears back before he gets throushly warmed to his task in lull-degree weather. Bllt it's only a hope. Bet- ting men rate the "Terrycrs" 3-5 vhoices for the opener, with K1118 Carl on the mound tossing his screwbaiis at the opposition.

Mailager Joe McCarihys open- lug-game choice of Rolling, instead 0f the lefthanded Vernon Gomez, caused some mild surprise among observers who figured thc Yankee 0110i would prcfci- to gamble on the first but erratic southpaw at the start, with the reliable Rulling on ‘on ior second-game duty. ‘

"Ruifing is our best. pitcher and we will probably need our best to heal. “liubbcliﬂ said McCarthy- "Besldes he will mean additional hitting strength in the lineup."

Ruffing is one of the hardest- hitting pitchers in the game. He "Pquently gets pinch-hitting as- signments and packs a long-range Olallop.

GOMEZ VS. SCHUMACIIEII.

Whether Gomez will oppose Hal Sohumachcr. the right-handed ex- ponent ol the ‘Sinker ball." in the second game at the Polo Ground, remains to be scen,

With Monte Pearson, Yankee righ-hander. on the sidelines with a lore back and possibly out of the series altogether as a starting pro- spect. McCarthy's pitching situa- tion is pretty much a "Rllllhig and Gomez" basis. ll. looks like a blind draw alter the lirst two games, so hr as the American Leaguers are mncerncd.

The Giants. meanwhile, propose h rotate Hubbel, Sohummdrl and

Fred Fitrsimmons, the ist flinger of the pumling knuckle-ball. Dick Cofimsn, c rlght-hander, and Al Smith, a southpaw. will be the no. one no. two relief ﬂingers, Terry said today.

If more deiinite and calculating plans mean anything, the Giants thus appear to have better oom- mand of the pitching prospects in advance of a series that most everybody. including the rival Lea- gue presidentsexpect to go six games.

It's axiomatic among baseball men that pitching is at least 6o per cent oi the world series battle. To back up their ﬂinging, the Giants believe they have an effective de- fence.

Each batting order shows iive hitters with marks of .300 or bet- ter for the pennant season, a iset that has been somewhat overlook- ed in the baliyhoo on behalf oi.’ the American Leaguers. Nevertheless it is s fact. the Yankees carry a bigger punch, irom top to bottom of their starting lineup.

The home run kings oi the two major leagues, lou Gehrig oi the Yankees and Mel Ott oi the Giants, occupy the cleanup spots but Lou has collected 9 rouncl-trippers. to Mel's 33.

with mid-town hotels booked

solidly ior the series, New York was host oi the biggest crowd in its baseball history. The weather may hit capacity prospects but the ad- vance sale is such that new records for attendance and gate receipts will be set, under any conditions, i! the series 300s six games. The sellout o! all reserved tickets by each club on s. three-game basis means that nearly $1,200,000 already is in the treasuries, subject to re- funds ior any unplsyed contest.

Thrusting back the challenge oi the Charlottetown Juniors, Holy Redeemer, to win the second game or the semi-final series ior the Maritime junior baseball cham- pionship by a 17-4 score, Amherst St. Pats advanced yesterday to the linal round of play in the defense oi the title they have held the past two years.

Champions oi’ Novs. Scotia, the st. Pats defeated the Prince Ed- ward Island hope in Amherst last. Saturday 15-3 and then came here to wallop the Juniors on their own grounds in the best-two-of-three series.

The victory in the semi-final round sent the Amherst team into the last bracket, where they will tackle the New Brunswick title- holders in the final attempt to hold their seaside province champion- ship.
