PLAY IN RAIN :. :.
TO SAVE MONEY

CHICAGO. Oct. 12.-People who
marveled to see the Tigers and Cubs
keep playing in their game Saturday
In spite of the fact that driving rain
was falling throughout the whole nine
innings. forgot the important point
that the players are in on division
OF the gate receipts for the first four
games. AS everybody inside the
grounds had a rain check, 1t was OBJ
vious that, should the contest be call
ed OF. these rainchecks would be good
at the gate on the return OF the team
from Chicago.
The players reasoned II all out and
chose to save the money, fearing that
the same crowd would not be out
again. They played without protest
in weather conditions which. had the
game been one OF the regular seasons
schedule. would surely have been call
ed In the first inning.

game here yesterday was a foot
