whether the present game is fixture

CHICAGO, Oct. 3l.-The worlds
series of 1909 remains at high water
mark with total attendance and re-
celpts, but II lasted seven games,
two more than this year. II the Ath-
letic-Cub series had gone two games
farther 1t would have surpassed all
records. In the five games played
the attendance was 6512 larger than
the total for the corresponding five
games last year. The receipts were
$i7,S72 more than those for the first
five games between Detroit and
Pittsburg, and the players share OF
the receipts this year was $12,1i7
greater than the pool which was di.
vided between the Pirates and the
Tigers.
Former records for big money were
swept into the discard In the world
championship series this year. Like.
wise the players of both teams will
draw more coin. The final count set
the total attendance for five games
at 124,222 and the total receipts at

BAY COUNTIES
CHAMPIONSHIP TENNIS
Mclaughlin Reached Finals in
Play October %,

According to the Chronicle, In the
annual bay counties championship
on October 20 Maurice Mclaughlin
and Il. Fottrell reached the final
round of the singlcsL. and George
James and Mclaughlin reached the
finals in the doubles. Il. Fottrell
and W. Johnston and Ambrose and
McSwain have match to play In
the semi-fnals to determine who
shall meet Mclaughlin and James in
the finals.
Had Mclaughlin and James been
opposed to high-class team in
either of their matches yesterday
they would in all probability have
suffered defeat. James played in
wretched form, and Mclaughlin
hardly played the tennis that was
expected of him. The two teams
they met were made up of fairly
good individual players, but neither
, of them knows the game of doubles.
, II may have been that James and
Mclaughlin realized this and were
careless IN tnclr play.
At times Mclaughlin showed bet
ter form than he had the previous
/ week. lie showed the enthusiasts
! enough to warrant the belief that
he has improved considerably In his
I play. He is no doubt handicapped
I by the difference in the courts at the
Park from those which he has been
playing on for the past few months.
McLoughlin's driving was wonderful
at times. lie drives almost contin-
ually, and in this respect lie has
changed his game somewhat. lie
seems to take the ball on the rise
instead of waiting for 1t to drop, as
do all the other players here.
i Mclaughlin and James won in
straight sets from both Powell and
Batkin and Curloy and Rosenberg,
but they derive but little credit for
! either victory. Powell and Batkin
led them at 81 in the second set,
, and but for the fact that they be-
/ came oyeranxiOus they might posi-
bly, have won the set.
The closest and most interesting
match of the day was the one in sim
giles between Il. Fottrell and -. Bat.
kin. Fottrell proved the winner,
and by his victory goes into the
final round, where he will meet Nc
Loughlin. The match between Bat
kin and Fottrell went the full five
sets. After each had taken a set
the third went to 11-9 before Fot'
trell won IL. Batkin evened up mat
tiers on the fourth, and but for the
fact that he broke his racket toward
the end of the set the final one
would in all probability have been
closer. A strange racket handicap
ped Batkin considerably in the fifth
set, and before he got into his stride
Fottrcll had lead of 80. Batkin
managed to win three games, and
under the circumstances his show
ing was good one.

VERMONT AVENUE VILLA
IS MODEL HOME TRACT

Mines & Farish report that while
the street work was under way in the
Vermont Avenue Villa tract advance
sales of lots was beyond all expecta-
tions. Now that gas, water and cleo
tricity are in, the cement sidewalks
and curbs finished and building COM
menced, there is every prospect that
the sale of lots will rapidly increase.
The Vermont Avenue Villa tract viii
be the first large subdivision to put
in rock foundation roadways and all
other street work in conformity with
the recent city ordinance calling for
first-class work.
A year .ago there were but few
houses in this neighborhood, but with
the completion of the Fifty-fourth
street yellow car line through the tract
the sale of lots increased until the east
half of the tract is practically sold
out and covered with homes.
The west half, extending from Bud
long to Normandie and intersected by

EASTERN MONEY PLACED
IN Los ANGELES LOTS
More Than 100000 Invested in
One Tract with Good
Returns

People generally do not realize what
a large sum of eastern money is be-
ing invested in Los Angeles real estate
in small amounts said L. E. Shep-
herd, president of the Southwest Land
company. I'VE hear about the big
loans and all that, but the men and
women who are buying a lot or build
ing home here and there, with money
brought or sent from the east, repre-
sent a total investment here of mill
lions.
Take our own tract for instance. I
can show you where at least 100000
has been invested in Vermont Square
by eastern people who have bought
from one to half a dozen lots, ana
many of whom have built homes.
Il have one Nebraska man who built
a nice home in Vermont Square, lived
in it ton days and sold at a good
profit Then he started another in the
same block and sold it just as it was
approaching completion. Now he is
building a third and has bought the
fourth lot upon which he expects to
build for his permanent home.
1--WE have good many lot owners in
Vermont Square who came from the
east last winter, liked the looks of
things and bought They figured that
very likely they would come here to
live, and if so they would have lot
on which to build home. If not, they
could sell at a profit.
1T would surprise you to know how
many eastern people have invested
from $500 to $4,000 each on this basis
and of course, the mere fact that they
own property here influences them to-
ward permanent removal to Los An
geles.
Another interesting and favorable
phase is that eastern people who have
visited Los Angeles and invested in
real estate influence their neighbors
back home to do the same. The latter
NAV not know the different localities
and conditions, but they can depend
upon what their friends tell them who
have been here and investigated.
What I have said of Vermont
Square applies, of course, TO many
other tracts in varying degrees, and
the aggregate of small investments
must amount to many millions of dol
lars.
"A peculiar condition is that east
ern investors who purchase lots with
the intention of ultimately building
homes on them are particular in in
Culiring as to the school accOmmoda-
tions. and the fact that there is large
Grammar school in Vermont Square
with the great new Polytechnic high
school within walking distance has
been a powerful factor In the up
building of the southwest part of the
city"
