Giants Are Confident Lot Now;
Sox Claim They We're Roughed;
Both Teams Speeding Westward

BOARD THE GIANTS SPECIAL
TRAIN. Oct 12.-No more confident
ball club ever sailed forth to battle
than the New York Giants today en-
route to Chicago and the fifth game
of their worlds championship series
with the White Sox.
Having evened the count at two an
the National League champions were
convinced that they had only to con-
tinue playing at the same speed they
developed in the two games at New
York to overcome their American
League foemen and they felt not the
slightest doubt on that score.
Yet, the Giants carefully resisted
any attempt to prophecy a complete
triumph within the next two playing
days They were frank to confess
that they regard the White Sox as al
ready beaten, but they do not dis
play the slightest tendency to under
rate their opponents.
They expressed q belief that Mana
ger Rowland Of the Whitet Sox will
almost certainly start Ed. Cicotte, of
shine ball fame, again In tomorrow's
engagement at Comiskey Park, and
anticipated another gruelling contest
in which the breaks" in the luck
would probably decide the game.
They also predicted that Harry
slim Sallee will lead the New York
club into action in the fifth game Of
the series and the third to be played
In Chicago, and that he will be even
more effective against the White Sox
