PITTSBURG, Pa. Oct. 1.-THE eli
max OF the professional baseball sea-
son is at hand The series for the
worlds championship between the
Detroits, three times champions OF
the American league. and the Pitts
burgs, winners of this years penant
in the National League was begun to
day at Forbes Field in this CT
For a week the two leading teams
of the country will be engaged in 4
nerve racking contest, the games al
ternating between this city and the
city of the Straits.
Probably no series that has ever
been played in baseball will attract
the attention this one will and prob
ably no series, the weather being
suitable, will equal it in attendance
As to what tie series will bring forth
the fans nave been keyed up to g
high pitch trying to convince them
selves and others why their fayorite
team should win. Their conclusions
have been governed largely by the
way they want the series to go. The
Pittshurger can furnish convincing
reasons why his team should capture
a majority of the series of seven
games and the American league fol-
lowers can furnish reasons none the
less logical why the Detroit Tigers
should walk off with the rich plum.
As to the man who has not formed
an opinion, who merely wants to see
the best team win and has no parti-
cular affilation, he thinks one way
after listening to one man and
switches his opinion after listening
to another. Reasons pro and con
can be furnished until one vacillates
like a pendulum.
the teams will play Friday and
Saturday in Pittsburg, Monday and
Tuesday in Detroit, Wednesday In
Pittsburg and Thursday in Detroit.
In case it becomes necessary to play
a seventh game, the city in which
it is to be played will be determined
by the national commission. The
officiating umpires will be Frank
OLaughlin and William G. Evans OF
the Tmerican league and William
KLEIN and ]. E. tombstone of the Ma
tional league.
This will be the sixth time that
the champion teams of the National
and American leagues have contested
for the worlds championship. The
first series was played in 1903. No
series was played in 1904, but since
then they have contested each year
without intermission. The winners
of the various series follow:

tionaI league, VS. Boston, champions
