New York, October S.-As was ex-
pected, the demand for reserved seats
and boxes in the upper stands for
the opening game of the worlds ser
les this afternoon at the Polo Grounds
more than equalled the supply.
The allotment of reserved seats
was exhausted in two hours and
would have been exhausted soner if
the ticket sellers could have handled
the crowd faster.
Twice as many people in line fail
+, ed to get tickets as succeeded in OBJ
tanning them.
The unprecedented demand for re-
served seats lead officials of the clubs
to predict today that the total at
tendance this afternoon will exceed
10000.
The bleacher seats, unreserved,
were put on sale at o'clock this
morning. Hundreds of frenzied fans
had been waiting for hours for that
moment. Scores of the seasoned
fanatics who were unwilling to
take a possible chance of being crowd
ed out of line, made their beds last
night in the run-aways leading to
the ticket boths.
Many were up at daylight. Hours
before the window-slides were open
ed the sleepy-headed enthusiasts
formed crooked and grotesque wait
ing line, nearly a block in length,
leading away from the ticket win
dows, lazily lounging against a
chance support or against each other
for one last wink of sleep before the
clock tolled the hour that would send
an electric current through the
slumbering throng.
That the capacity of the park
would be taxed was assured long be-
fore the hour set for the game to be-
gin.
Three hundred Boston rooters,
trained like college football enthus-
lasts, will be feature of the game.
They succeeded in obtaining seats
in a block, after almost overturning
the general government.
The rooters' leader wired to Heyd-
Ter asking for a group of seats.
Heydler said nothing could be done
President McAleer of the Red Sox
was asked to intercede. He did
without avail.

hand. He failed to obtain results
