TICKETS WON'T
BE HELD NOW
FOR BIC SERIES

New York, Sept. because the of
fees Of the Giants have already been
swamped with applications for tickets
for the worlds series the club off,
Gals made the announcement yester-
day that no reservations would be
made and nothing done in regard to
the worlds series until the proper
time arrived when it would be posi-
BILE to issue an announcement cover
ing all the details.
The club officials want to be abso-
lute1y sure first that the Giants have
the flag clinched before any plans
are announced. It is a certainty,
however, that when the time does ar
rive for the ticket distribution an
unusual effort will be made to keep
the tickets out of the hands of specu-
lators because of the many ticket
scandals of former years.
It will be the policy of the New
York club this year to do away as
much as possible with the mail order
system and place every ticket posi-
BILE on public sale at the grounds.

MURPHY WINNER
\
AT CHARTER OAK

Hartford, Sept. 6-Thirteen close
finishes despite, the fact, that the time
in all was comparatively slow for
mile track racing, made up an excit-
ing day of harness racing yesterday
for the third day of the Grand Cir
cult meeting at Charter Oak park
Another six-heat race in which Peter
Chenault COPIED the big slice of the
money, was the outstanding feature,
while Oregon Hal grabbed split
heat event when he won the 2:09 pace
in four heats. Koroni, ]. o. Reay's
consistent performer, ran true to
form in the 2:10 trot, cleaning up
that race in three straight heats in
handy fashion.
It was a big day for Tommy MUIR
ply, one of the few big days that he
has had in very lean season, prop
ably the leanest from the standpoint
of a money winner in his long career
on the trotting tracks. He was there
with the punch yesterday afternoon
however, and he put over Peter Che
nault in the 2:07 trot, despite his at
tempts to break often, and won with
Oregon Hal in the 2:09 pace.
In sharp contrast to Murphy, was
the fortune of Ed POP Geers, who
drove a horse in each. of. the three
races, and finished last in each OF
the three summaries. Two of his
entries were distanced, and the only
reason, that the same fate did not be-
fall Robert Gatewood in the 2:09 pace
was because the application of dis
lance in this race was waived.

YANKEES SLUMP
AGAIN AND LOSE IN
WASHINGTON GAME

Washington, Sept. 6-The Yankees
yesterday failed to live up to the
promise of squirt occasioned by
their work against the Red Sox at
Boston and the Senators took the
opener Of a Six-game series by the
score of to 0. Failure to take add
vantage of opportunities that doomed
up in eight of the nine innings kept
the Yanks scoreless and some loose
work in the field by Gilhooley helped
the Senators to pick UP their runs.
It was a sorry exhibition Of often
sive play that the Yankees gave today.
Not until the ninth inning was the
home team able to set down the New
Workers in order. High opened the
sixth with a triple and was doubled at
the plate when Gilhoo1ey flied to Men
osl1y. In another inning two passes
were received and in the eighth CaId-
well, High. and Gilhooley singled in
succession. The Yanks got nine hits
off Ayers, drew two passes, and got
runner to first on an error, but
could not score a run.
Gilhooley had particularly bad
day. In the first inning he fumbIed
hit by Menosky, when perfect play
might have made a close play or got
the runner at second base. The hit
went for a double. the scorer giving
| Menosky the benefit of the doubt In
the sixth Gilhooley overran Rice's hit
and it. went for a triple instead of a
single.
|. Later he put another runner on
third by dropping Leonard's fly in
deep right field. pvo fly balls to >the
outfield sent these two runs across
adding to the runs which Leonard
! had carried over in the first inning.

ed considerably in keeping the Yam.

the second inning after Pipp ha6

New York, Sept 6-Sma1l fields

ties were successful there was an
equal number of reyerses for the
form players in which heavily sup
ported choices were defeated In the

opponents. 7.
High Noon carried top weight of 127
pounds and Keogh rushed him to the
front so that he had a clear lead
when the horses came into full view
after covering half of the six-furlong
stretch. Keogh was whipping then in,
a vain endeavor to hold his advan-
|tage, but he soon gave way TO Hank
O'Day and Ina Frank.
At the sixteenth pole LOTUS was
doing his best with Hank O'Day, but
his best was not good enough to with
stand the rush of Ina Frank, which
closed with a burst of speed chat land

in front of Hank 'O'Day9 The lightly
burdened Hwfa closed strongly and
captured third money five lengths

After two odds-on favorites had
scored easy victories, the talent re-
ceived shock when John Sanford's
imported colt, Gex, was beaten in the
third race at a mile. Gex was consid-
cred so superior to his three oppon-
ents that he was quoted at to 5,

KAUFF'S HOMER is
FATAL TO PHlLLIES
IN REMNANT fight

New York, Sept. 6.-Little Benny
Kauff drove a golden spike into the
Giant pennant hopes in the first game
OF the double-header with the Ph1ll1es
at the Polo Grounds yesterday by
lifting one of Chief Bender's madden
ing shoots into the right field grand
stand for a home run, his tremendous
clout sending Herzog across the plate
ahead of him and winning the game
by a score of to 2. Kauff's all-im-
portant effort came In the eighth in
ming when the. Giants were trailing
with the count 2 and 1. The Phil
lies, utterly taken back 10Y kauff's
telling blow, could do nothing in their
half Of the ninth.
Encouraged by this Iast-rninute vic
tory over the naughty redskin. the
Giants sunk their talons deep into
the National league championship by
driving Rixey off the hill in the sec
ond game, finally winning by a score
I of 5 to 1. A mighty crack into the
right field stand for a homer by era
vath saved the Phillies from shut
out. So fiercely did they pound the
lanky Eppa Jeptha that Pat Moran
thought best to yank him out in the
third inning for q. pinch hitter after
i the Giants had rolled up four runs on
him in the first two.
| Fittery replaced the long one and
the Giants added another tally in the
seventh when Herzog fell upon one of
his blenders for a long double to left,
scoring Burns.
This double victory almost clinches
the pennant for the Giants. 1t will
be next to impossible for them to lose
their grip on the treasured gonfalon
now, to slip back into the hungry
nav of Moran's spunky organization.

again reap a golden harvest at the

about curbing the spectators but
Judging from the bulletin issued by
Secretary Foster of the Giants the
public will be kicked around as
usual.
1t is stated that neM orders will be
done away with as much as possible
and tickets placed on public sale at the
grounds That makes it easy for, spec
| ulators to get the pasteboards if seats
| are to be sold for several games in
| advance. The only way to give the
| regular fans a fair chance is to sell
only for one game at q, time and make
the purchaser of the ticket go directly
| into the park. If the Giants try this
plan the folks who support the game
| won't have real cause for complaint,
| but if spectators are allowed to pur-
chase seats in advance there will be a
loud roar.
The National commission will meet
September 20 to decide the dates for
the series. If the White Sox win in
| the American league it is probable
that the Giants would give up their
right to toss a coin and would allow
the series to start in Chicago on Sat
urtiay,- October 6. This would give
the teams a, chance to play the second
game in Chicago on Sunday. They
would travel to New York on Monday
and open in New York Tuesday.
