If the following by the New York cor respondent of the London Daily Mirror can be taken to mean something, England learned something about the past worlds series championship games; Great as is the fascination exercised by baseball over the American public every day during the season, the United States is driven to positive hysteria by the worlds series.
 Half million persons tried to buy tick cts for the first match in New York.
 But there was only room for 40,OOo, and so, in spite of measures which prevented
 spectators making money out of the shortage of accommodations, workingmen paid as much as $25 for a s2 ticket. Those who could not wait outside all night in order to get in, followed the game in their scores of thousands from the streets, where enormous scoring boards showed which batsman was at each base which pitcher was doing his work, and even where the ball was throughout the game
 "There Is no game in the world which, although 1t is most difficult to under stand Is so well understood by the crowd.
 So keen Is the desire to see the flnai games-which took place on successive days alternately at New York and Bos-

 also net prescribed when Hangar entered Vanderbilt? He can probably speak with more authority upon the subject than can Mir. Jones.
 In letter accompanying his article, MT. Jones says:
 MT. Greer is also incorrect in his charges against the S. l. A. A. upon the matter of summer baseball, for if he will look into the matter more definitely he will find the association s attitude is about like that of other intercollegiate bodies of the kind, with the exception of the fact that it is doubtless more liberal. The rule as now promulgated does not apply to man who has played summer ball be- fore entering college"
 The writer confesses his ignorance re- garding the workings of other intercolle- giate bodies similar to the S. l. A. A. MT. Jones says that the s. l. A. A. is doubt less more liberal than other such organi- cations. We say "doubtless' IL IS not. Eppa Rixey, the Philadelphia star slab man, isJ to be allowed to compete upon the University of Virginia basketball team this season in spite of the fact that he was in professional baseball company last summer In the s. 1. A. A. even summer baseball outside of the athletes home county makes him ineligible for every athletic team of his college.
 Not once in his recent articles has the writer mentioned the playing of summer hall before the athlete enters college. He does not need Mr. Jones to tell him that the $. I. A. A. permits an athlete to com Bete after playing summer baseball. pro- vided such playing was done before he enters college. Having signed these S. l. A. A. eligibility blanks for four years, he is pretty well acquainted with what they demand. Moreover, in his charges against the s. l. A. A. the writer stated plainly that the eligibility laws of the $. l. A. A. the laws. not the excep- tions-were being violated. He made this accusation, not upon heresay evidence or opinion, but upon what he knew, after having been thrown during the past four years with the athletes of practically every college in the south.

 Carroll and Fields, two musical comedians of real merit, have an of. fering that is full of melody wit and aristocratic comedy. These two soung men show some expert piano numbers, some vocal selections and charaeterizations that have made them, one of the biggest attractions on the circuit during the present season.
 Gibson and Ranney in their spicy western sketch "The Cowboys Court ship" have one of the merriest play lets, one that never fails to please every audience and leave them clam bring for more.
 Then there's Vera Bettina. a char acter singing comedjenne, and one of the highest grade single numbers of the bill. She brings some late Broad way song hits and with a full battery of feminine smiles and wiles a trim,. alert. agile, agreeable and thorough ly feminine young person--you'll like her from the very start.
