fact that the Giants and the Whits
Sox are considered to be more evenly
matched than any other contesting
worlds series teams since the fall
battles Of 1912 between the Red SoS
and Giants adds more punch to the
whirlpool of sentiment and interest
that is engulfing the big games.
New York remained slight fav-
orite in the betting, due solely to the
fact that New York money FREEDOM,

Of the White Sox. Critics generally
are picking the White Sox to uphold
the honor of the Americal league.
There was no possibility that at
tendance records would be smashed.
Comiskey park holds only slightly
more than $4,000 persons, seated COM
fortably. Throwing open the field
wouldn't add many more to that total.
The Polo grounds, where the New
York share of the games will be
played, seats more than $4,000, but
the record for single contest is more
than $4,000, established last year at
Boston when the Red Sox and bod
gers were scrapping. 1t would be
miraculous if one of the two fields
could be stretched to hold more than
this figure.
The playing of the rival infields.
the work of the rival pitchers, will
hold the attention of the dopesters.
