Second Game was unexciting until the sixth inning, which turned into the sort of thing that makes baseball conversation for years to come. Washington led 1-to-0 by reason of "Goose" Goslin's terrific clout into the upper grandstand tier in the third. Except for that, Pitcher Hal Schumacher, 22-year-old graduate of St. Lawrence University, had allowed only one hit in five innings. The Giants had knocked only two singles from Washington's veteran righthander, "General" Crowder. Then the Senators went to bat in the sixth. They did everything toward scoring more runs-except...
Fifth Game. Adolfo ("Pop") Luque. a 43-year-old Cuban who has been kicking around in professional baseball for 20 years, squinted with grave concern from the Giants' bench at what the Senators were doing to Pitcher Hal Schumacher in the sixth. Up to that point matters had gone nicely for the Giants. They had walloped "General" Crowder for two runs in the second, Hal Schumacher himself lashing out the single that scored Jackson and Mancuso.

There were one hundred and thirty-nine, gentlemen enough to last any sane, decent church bell almost two days. Yours...
...disheartened by their miserable forecasts last April, baseball experts promptly made Washington a 7-10-5 favorite to win the World Series, starting Oct. 3. Main feature of the Giants' success this season has been their pitching staff, led by fat Freddie Fitzsimmons, 21 -year-old Hal Schumacher, lean left-handed Carl Hubbell. Roy Parmelee, who performed brilliantly earlier in the season, recently lost control. His wild pitches broke the wrists of Boston Outfielder Randy Moore and Chicago Infielder Stanley Hack. A harder hitting team and, man for man, more impressive on the strength of batting and fielding averages...
Back on his White House job President Roosevelt last week filled his fifteenth and last ambassadorship when he appointed Henry Hulme ("Hal") Sevier of Corpus Christi, Tex., to represent him in Chile* Born 55 years ago in Tennessee. Ambassador Sevier was transplanted to Texas in early youth, worked as a cowboy, sat in the State Legislature at 21, published a newspaper at Austin. Today "Hal" Sevier is tall, greying, courtly...
