BIG CELEBRATION
IN CHICAGO LOOP
OVER THE VICTORY
Ball Players Chased Off to
Bed by Their Managers
Little Betting on the
Opening Game.

Chica go, Oct. eff you were the
biggest heroes in the country, how
would you like to get chased to bed
while about million people were
celebrating in your honor?
Probably the White Sox didn't
either, but they donned their nighties
real early, nevertheless.
They did it on orders from their
boss, Clarence Rowland, who herded
them into the bosoms of their fami-
lies while the evening was still young
and Chicagos mad population was
just warming up to make a night Of
it.
For Rowland, in common with Ben
Franklin, believes that:
Early to bed and early to rise,
Makes peppery fielding and sharp
batting eyes"
And the Giants, under like orders
from John McGraw. were spared the
pain of trying to appear cheerful.
HOME FANS HAPPY.
But the home fans were thronging
the loop streets, laughing and shout
ing.
Everybody was telling everybody else
Il told you So" and making freak bets
of the mind variety.
Probably less actual cash changed
hands on today's game than on any
other worlds series opener since they
were invented. The teams appear so
evenly matched that the series will
be decided practically by breaks" in
the game and the fans know it. Even
the Sox victory failed to bring out
much wagering, although the odds were
affected.
Yesterday the betting on the series
was at even money with a few wagers
on the Giants at to 5. Tonight the
prevailing odds were 3 to Q on the Sox
THE BIGGEST BET.
John Harding, manager Of the Plant
ers hotel, said he had placed about
$4,000 on the Sox at these figures. The
biggest single bet recorded here to-
night was that Of Dave Riordan, of
La Sale, ILL.,, who put up $500 on
the Chicago team, against $1,000 by
William Fitzgerald. of Pittsburg, Pa.
Happy Felsch's home run had made
him affluent tonight. He will be pre-
scented with liberty bonds, together
with enough clothing and jewelry to

The crowd was leaving the Liberty

showed such class against Eddie
White, the California lad that the Zion
fans have been clamoring for him to
show there again. He should have had
decision over White for he floored
him a couple of times and closed both
optics but only got a draw. McDevitt
is conceded to be one of the best light
weights showing this season along the
Pacific coast. He halls from Frisco
and always carries a couple of pack
ages for ready delivery. With his ir/
dorsements, he looks like a lad who
will give Morrisey six rounds of very
close milling. Lees friends are not
worrying. They look upon him as sure

THE GIANTS RUN.

iT1G SINN . NUN.
Lew McCarty was responsible for
the Giant run. First up in the fifth,
the Giant catcher laid against one for
a three base drive to center field. A
faster runner would have made a home
run off the hit, but McCartys lame
leg impeded him. Slim Sallee himself
provided the hit that drove McCarty
across the plate.

Carly swung hard and slammed a line

unlike Kauff got It. He turned a
complete somersauIt but came up with
the ball. The game was saved If
the ball had passed Jackson, Holke
would have scored the tying run and
McCarty would have been IN a position
to score. McGraw already had sent
Fred Anderson to warm up, planning
TO send in a pinch hitter for Sallee If
McCarty reached first

Benny Kauff and Holke were shown
up at first base by the clever Cicotte.
He picked Off Holke in the second in
ming and did the same thing to Kauff
in the eighth. after Benny had reached
there on Weaver's error. Kauff famed
once. A short fly to the outfield, a
pop up and a soft grounoer on which
Weaver erred were his other efforts.
Heine Zimmerman failed to hit a ball
out of the infield.
Speculation turned tonight to the
probable pitching selections for to-
morrow. 1t was believed McGraw would
send Poll Perritt to the firing line,
alternating from his string Of left
handlers. IT was considered just as
probable that Rowland would choose
Red Faber, banking on a repetition OF
the success of a right handler. !
