CICOTTE WINS OPENING GAME
 FROM GIANTS
....... ..t.F Tr.--N

Associated FEr@~'
 CHICAGO, Oct. 6-Before crowd of th.rty-,wo thousand howlmE ball ..as the White sox today took the ..st game of the worlds series from the New York Giants by the score Of 2 to 1. each team making seven hits. To Chlcago's p.em.er pitcher Clcot,e, belongs the lions share O. the honor. bu, h.s teammates gave him perfect support, and without the.r timely assistance on more than one occasion there might have been gloom in the Windy City tonight
 McMullen, John Collins and Felsch were the men with the heavy vii lows today. Collins single. followed by McMulen's double, produced the first score of the game in the third, and Felsch put the game in a sack and brought it home with him when he landed on the pill for round trip ticket in the fourth. That end cd the scoring as far as the SoX were concerned.
 For the Giants, Mccarthy, Me Graw's brawny young catcher. con nected with the horsehde in the fifth inning for a long wallop that netted three bags Slim SalIee then did a Douglas Fairbanks by produc ing d clean single and scoring Me Carthy. h the seventh Joe Jackson by d sensational shooting catch rob bed the Giants of a chance to tie the game. This was the only other time that McGraw had a man close to the home station
 The game was a pitchers duel from start to finish CIcotte pitched great ball for the Sox, and Sallee was in fine form also. and but for the home run of Felsch might have won out in the end, as he was unhittable dur ing the final frames. Sensational fielding by both teams kept the big crowd on its feet throughout the game and kept the score from being larger.
 Tomorrows game is expected to draw a record breaking crowd. This will be the first time in several years that a worlds series game has been played on Sunday, the series having been played in the east for the past two seasons. It. is estimated that more than 10000 people will be on hand to witness the contest Thousands of people are lined up in front of the gates to- night awaiting their opening, and each hour sees additions to the wait ing throng
 Special trains bearing New York fans arrived in this city early this morning, and others are speeding this way tonight bearing a great Sunday crowd coming to root their team to a victory All precautions possible have been taken to prevent ticket speculating, but officials state that thousands of dollars have been made by spectators in spite of these mea- sures

GATE RECEIPTS

The official figures of the gate receipts are: Gross receipts, $73,- 152.50; National Commissions share, $7315.2O; Players share, $39 ,50200; Each clubs share, $13, 3,16700 These figures will be far exceeded by to- morrow's game if the weather con- tinues favorable. The forecast calls for clear and cool weather.
 The lineups of the two teams in to- days game was as follows:
 CHICAGO-J. Collins, if Weaver, ss; E. Collins, 2b; Jackson If; Felsch of; Gandil, 1b; McMullen, 3b; Schalk c; Cicotte. D.
 NEW YORK-Burns If; HerZog 2b; Robertson If; Kauff Of; Zimmerman 3b; Fletcher ss; Holke 1b; Mccarthy c; Sallee p.
 Practically the same lineups will be presented in tomorrow's game. Reb Russell will probably be in the box for the SoX, and either Shupp or Perrit will do the slab work for the Giants.
 BETTING UNCHANGED.
 Both managers are confident of winning tomorrow game. McGraw declares that he will take the game with ease. The betting stands even here and 10 to in New York that the Giants will win the series. Prior to today's game very little betting was done, but some money is being White Sox winning.

INJUNCTION JUDGES MAY BE
STRIPPED OF CERTAIN POWER
Circuit court judges like Jesse
Baldwin and Jesse HOldOm will be
stripped of their power to deny jury
trials to Workingmen and working
men for violation of injunctiOns
if the legislature follows the recon-
mendatiOn of state senate committee
on judiciary. That body yesterday
voted y to in favor of the injunc-
ton limitation bill which is the fore
most labor measure now up.
Judges Baldwin and HOldom were
mentioned before senate committee
as specimens Of judges who have
stretched the injunction power a long
ways. A statement by Pres. John II.
Walker of the Illinois Federation Of
Labor was circulated in committee.
1t declared:
Human labor, which is human
life, is not a commodity. No man
can have a property right in the body
of another human being. LabOr's in
junction limitation bill would prevent
judges disregarding the national and
state constitutions. 1t aims to pro-
tect the workers in the right of free
speech, free press, peaceful assem-
blage.
THE workers of Illinois are deter
mined that the courts of our state
must respect the law, must respect
the constitution of our nation and
state, must become an institution
that will guarantee the workers their
constitutional rights as citizens.
Mention our Illinois courts of
equity to the average man. He does |
not get a picture of a tribunal deal |
ing out eVen-handed justice in the
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1917-04-12

name Of the law. He gets a picture
of a modern, Cold-blOoded, profess
siOnaI strike-breaking agency, a tool
Of constituencies corporations"
Walker added that murderers
thieves and 'boOtleggers can get jury
trials in Illinois, but men and women
of the garment workers union in
Chicago are now. under jail sentence
for contempt of court and are de-
priVed of jury trial because Of Of
lenses alleged on the picket line.
This being war time and the nation
in need Of cooperation from labor,
there was special interest in Walk
er's saying.
THE injunction court, as it oper-
ates in labor disputes, is a despotism
created within our republic by the
usurpatiOn Of power on the part Of
some judge, a power which no law
or constitution of our country ever
gave him, which he uses arbitrarily
to break strikes and to destroy or
CARNATIONS of working people. Such
injunctiOns are never used against
other classes. The purpose is to
crush workers into submission"
