HALT SCALPERS
FOR FIRST GAME
Reserved Seats Distributed
Today; Hard Practice
Ahead For Chicago
BY associated Press

Chicago, Oct. 4.-Most of the IT,
600 reserved seats for the worlds
series game at White SoX park were
distributed to-day TO those who had
been awarded tickets or notified two
days ago to apply to-day and get
their admission cards. A record of
each ticket sold has been kept and
with this the club officials hope to
stamp out ticket scalping.
Spectators who up to to-day have
been advertising that they would
nave plenty of tickets, appeared to
have lost some of their confidence
and refused to guarantee tickets for
any of the games here. They still
contend, however, that they will have
some tickets" but admit that the
supply will not equal the demand.
Hard Practice Ahead
The White SoX, after u day of idle
ness yesterday on account of rain.
are booked for two days of stiff prac-
uce. Manager Rowland said that he
would not send the team to Weegh-
man Park to see the Chicago and
New York Nationals play to-day, as
he considered practice more essential
than any lines they might get on
their opponents from seeing them
play.
Eddie Collins. Eddie Cicotte and
Kid Gleason, who saw the Giants
play Tuesday in Philadelphia gave
the White Sox the benefit of their
observations yesterday in a long
talk.
The New York Nationals are due
here early this afternoon from tho
East, and according to the program
they are to go direct from the sta !
ton to Weeghman Park for q prac-
tlce game with the Chicago Ma
tionals. =
