IhlrtV-nNe thousand men and WOm-
en-, refugees from homes wrecked by
baseball frenzy, shivered beneath
heavy coats and furs here this after
noon while the Braves and Athletics
battled in their fourth game for the
worlds championship.
The sun shone feebly and failed to
temper the raw. cold wind that swept
across the field, numbing hands and
feet. and forcing even the players to
move briskly 10 keep from becoming
chilled.
A defeat for the Athletics today
meant the end of the series, meant
their inglOriOus defeat A victory as
sured them another chance small
chance. yet = chance And that's all
the Athletics prayed for today.
The ticket sale of the cheaper seats
began at 9 o'clock as usual but there
were great dark gaps in the white
faces in the big outfield stands as late
AS 1 O'Clock, because Of the cold
weather
Athletics Arc Late.
The Athletics were later than usual
i'm appearing on the battle field. The
cynical were inclined TO attribute this
tardiness to a natural disinclination
toward mounting the steps of the gal
lows any earlier than necessary. But
such was not the case. They began a
brisk batting practice and stimuli
taneOusly the band commenced a
spirited exhibition Of rough and ready
dodginE which somewhat interfered
with the manufacture Of music, but
vastly entertained those assem- bled-

welcome when they assembled on the
ueld at 12:45. GOwdy, the sluSginS
