Nearly 1,5OO extra box seats would be placed on Ebbets field, Brooklyn, and there probably would be 1,50O circus seats constructed in left field It was announced. These ,extra ac- commodations bring the capacity of Ebbets field up to about 27,000 for the worlds series games of the Brook Jyns with the Red Sox. The same hnent of the 54,000 reserved seat tick cts for worlds series showed that the available reservations were oversub- scribed so greatly that many persons / who asked for a modest pair of>seats were allowed but one, while others, asking six and eight, in some in , stances obtained only a pair. The happiest man in baseball today is Manager Wilbert Robinson, who pi- loted the Brooklyns to their first pen nant in sixteen years.

 Even if they didn't play for the worlds title, the members of the White Sox and Cubs made pretty good thing out of the Chicago city series. The players will divide $19,- 5s1.

The American Chain football play CTS will drill this week in prepar- ation for the game with the High bridge A. A. eleven of Jersey City, which will be played next Sunday at Newfeld park.
 There has to be a goat in every worlds series and Jake Daubert of Brooklyn seems to have the angora title won already. He was up five times yesterday and didn't get 3 blow.
 Bad base running by Brooklyn, a fault of the Dodgers throughout the season, has proved very costly so far in the series. Wheat made a mis- take Saturday which cost a run and yesterday Pitcher Smith tried to take three basesc on a hit when he should have halted on second.
 The special trains bearing the Red Sox, Brook1yns and bands of rooters passed through this city about 11:3O last night on the way to New York The trains stopped in New Haven to change engines and the Boston Royal Hooters had a parade around the station, the band b1aring the famou. war song "Tessie."
