 The next contest of importance in England will be the twenty-rOund bout between Jem Driscol1 and Owen Nor an. which is to take place shortly. Driscou has not fosght for some time and fans on this side of the water are curious to find out if the little Britisher is still the wonder he was when he fought Abe Atte1 here.
 Frankie Burns, the San Francisco lghtWe1gnt, mas declared ms nlentlon of joining in the stampede of boxers bound for New York. Burns has been trying to get Freddie Welsh to go back to the coast and meet him in a twenty round bout at the end of this month. As Welsh shows no desire to leave New York at the present time. Burns has made up his mind to come East He has been promised matches with Battling Nelson, Matt Wells and others of the cracks now here.
 Another boxer bound for these shores is Jim Sullivan, the English middle weight champion whom Billy Papke knocked out few months ago. Sul- 1ivan will have little trouble in ob- taining matches when he arrives, pro- vided he can find promoters willing to stage the bouts.

The best players on the City League teams have volunteered their services and a good game is assured Tickets are selling rapidly. The cause is a worthy one, and a large, crowd will probably be on hand.
 President A. F. Veness of the City league will throw the first ball. Dan Shannon and Tom McCann will give their services as umpires Here is the line up:
 Team No 1, explained by William O'Malley; Edward Lynch, manager; Eagan. Black Rocks, c; Klauberg, Ea- gles, p; O'Malley. Eagles lib; Garter Yosts, 2b, Reilly, Eagles, 3b; Walters, Black Rocks, ss; Hurley, Black Rocks, If; Dubee, Yosts. of, White, Yosts, If

Large Bets Scarce Because Sports Are Waiting For Odds to

Special from United Press )

New York, Oct. 13-Outwardly calm but inwardly a bunch of nerves, the gladiators of Connie Mack and John J. McGraw are awaiting p. m., to- morrow, when the. call of play balP' will resound from the lips of Umpire Billy" K1em. The struggle for the world g. champ ship will then be on. all been made. The setting is com plete. All that the fans hope for is clear weather And the official fore cast is fair and cool
 Lack of condition will not enter in to the contests. Most of the players are fit It is hoped Baby McInnes will be at the initial sack fully recov- wrist Larry Doyle will be at the midway station, his ankle greatly im- proved. Everyone is guessing who will pitch-MathewSon or Marquard for the Giants, Bender, Coombs or Plank for the Athletics. Big Six vs. the Chief" is the most talked of com bination. But two men know-Mack and McGraw-and they are not talk ing for publication.
 The crowds which will surge into the Polo. Grounds, tomorrow, will ov- ertop any gathering ever seen within the enclosure. More than 100000 will seek admission. Many will be disap- pointed. The grounds hold but 50,000 The record receipts are $18S, 50 at the seven games of the Tigers-Pirates series in 1909. The receipts for the first four games. this year, will be over that sum.
 Despite the increasing interest in the series, betting is still at a low ebb. A few wagers at evens have been made but large bets are scarce. Inability to dope out the two teams on past performances is the reason. There are reportS of large sums of money being pooled but the members of these pools do not want to risk their thousands at ovens. They want odds and none is being offered. Even money will undoubtedly prevail until the first game has been played.

Willie Lewis outpointed Jeff Smith in ten rounds as the windup to the National Sporting Clubs show in New York, last night. Lewis earned his decision by out-boxing his man.
 The first couple of rounds were slow. Lewis spent them in sizing up his man. He would stop Smiths rushes with a straight left and then side step out of harms way, making his adversary miss ridiculously. Tn the third and fourth rounds Smith got in some stiff blows in his wild way that
