HEAVY HITTING IS
 WINNING FOR ATHLETICS
co

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 10.-ThOse that have figured the Athletics to win the worlds series on account of their heavy hitting belives that the first four games of the series have justified their faith The work of the Philadelphia boys with the stick has given them three victories out of four games, and in the game they lost they scored one more hit than their opponents. In the four games played the Athletics have made 39 hits-many of them for extra bases-while the Giants have made but 29.
 However, the most enthusiastic champions of the American League ad- init that New York is making brave struggle to overcome their old time rivals for worlds honOrs The Gi- ants made a desperate rally in the dying moments of the fourth game to- day, but their hopes were finally snuffed out by Bender, and the Athlet- ics won their third victory
 The Giants whaled Bender hard to- ward the last of the game, tearing off three runs in the seventh and scoring two more in the eighth. Murray had a splendid chance to complete the work for New York A runner was on second and one on third when he came to bat with two out, but he was unable to respond to the crisis, and went out In the ninth not a Giant reached first
 Players Participate No More.
 The players in the worlds series will participate in the receipts of all games that have been played thus far including today's game. They will not, however, get anything out of any games played after today. Under the rules of the National Commission, 10 per cent of all the receipts go to the National Commission. In the first four games, 60 per cent. of the re- ceipts after the National Commissions 10 per cent. is deducted go to the play CTS and 40 percent. is divided equally between the clubs participating. Ali ter the first four games 90 per cent. of the receipts remaining after the Ma tional Commission has gotten it's share, are divided among the clubs Twenty-Five percent. of the winnings of the American League club playing the Athletics in this instance, is equal ly divided among the other clubs in the American League. This is an agreement that was made after the series of two years ago. The Nation al League has discussed the proposi- tion, but it has not accepted it. Of the players share of the receipts 60 per cent. goes to those playing on the winning team and 40 per cent. to those on the losing team.
