CHICAGO SHOWS THE
REAL THING IN FANS
A BIG BAsEBALL-sCENEs WHEN
PLAYED DETROIT IN A
PADDED CELL" AND INDY CITY IN NEED OF ONE

turbers of all are the Detroit fans. the
small army which came to Chicago Oh
excursion tickets to faunt when the
Tiger scores and to act peevish when
the Jump says he's out. Their ZEE
yah!' which forged to the pinnacle OF
ear torment at yesterdays batfest
continued to be heard until far into
the night in the loop district It punch
ed the time clock at an early hour to-
day and started I'm again. The express
sion is not pronounced just as it is
spelled. II must be accompanied by a
rumbling in the windpipe and a gem
eral imitation of strangulation
Say, those Detroiters make college
boys LOOK like delegates to a hymn
book convention remarked the per-
son within the official rock-studded
shirt front Of a downtown hotel this
morning. Il thought ! had met my
worst desk-clerk experience when a
gang of rah-rahs came to town last
fall to play the University of Chicago.
They stayed at this hotel and thought
they would tear up the lobby before
we got rid Of them. But they were
like a soft murmur to the 'Ee-yah'
society from Detroit"
He passed a large key, such as is
presented to the new Mayor of Lon
don, to a stout man wearing a yellow
triangle on his label. The stout man
pronounced mis- room number in abys-
NAL tones, indicating that an overdose
of "ee-yah" had sprained mis- speech
apparatus.
That the Tigers have the fercest To-
cal support ever possessed by a visit
ing team was testified by employees and
barnacles Of the west side PARK
"Chee, dem stews from Detroit is de
woist dat ever wicked de planks loose
in dis yard, was the expert opinion of
"Chinny" Flynn, a small human eel
who pierces solid walls of humanity
with his popcorn basket. Did you
pipe 'em when dey went batty in ue

Among the drawbacks of the base
ball madness to the unenthusiastic is
said to be the provoking baseball IN
terest of street-car conductors. Cars
are being carried past corners and
platforms blocked by news-thirsty
traction servants. The Inconvenience

shades rushed in during the nnal in
ning-has promoted the suggestion
that fans bring along sleeping equip
ment and camp out all night and be
in ample time for the next days do
ings.
Detroit they say, is in a padded cell
today
Tonight the center of frenzy will be
shifted from Chicago to Detroit, as the
next two games are to be fought out
in the jungle lair of the tiger. The
scenes accompanying the embarking OF
the team and fans promise to shake
the train shed. The Detroiters will
have for company on the home tro
hundreds of Chicago loyalists
The heat of the public mind was il.
