BIC SERIES
IS BEGUN
IN CHICAGO

CHICAGO. ILL. Oct. with all the
gripping interest thai could be mastered
from the spectacle of representatives Of
the nations two greatest cities meeting
In n worlds series. Chicago stood ex-
pectantly today. waiting the signal that
would send the Giants and the White
Sox into their first grapple his after
noon.
Vacant over a period Of years since
the Cubs last fell Chicago's baseball
heart was full TO overlooking today, for
it was her first worlds series with New
York and it was the second time an
American league club had carried the
Windy City's hopes To the post. Back

Cubs. Great as they were. the former
terrors of the National league. didn't
excite the hutter of admiration that
sweeps the South Side of Chicago when
the names OF Charles A.. Comisky is
mentioned. A real philanthropist. be-
loved by every one with whom he comes
in contact. Comisky has given Chicago
a great baseball club one that had
fought it's way through ? season clutter
cd up with obstacles. Chicago is proud
and grateful. The city will mortgage
everything handy and bet it OF the AM
erican league cohorts.
HoEeed by the east for so long. the
worlds series takes on a new signih-
canoe with its playing this year. The
pep OF the west is going in TO replace
the lethargy of the east. The fact that
the Giants and the White Sox are con
sidered 10 be more evenly matched than
any other contesting worlds series
teams since the fall battles of 1912 be-
tween Red Sox and Giants adds more
punch to the whirlpool Of sentiment and
interest that is engulfng the big games.
New York remained a slight favorite
in the betting. due solely to the fact
that New York money predominates. de-
spite the numerous hackers of the white
sox. Critics generally are picking the
White Sox to uphold the honor OF the
American league.
There was no possibility that attend

Throwing open the field wouldn't add

If interest in the worlds series may
be measured by what the Of
the country think abount it, then the
series which begins today between the
White Sox and New York Giants is
greater by far than any series Of the
past. More than 500 newspaper corre-
spondents viii be seated in the middle
Of the balcony today looking on and
covering" the big affair for papers
in towns and cities from Boston to san
Francisco. William Veeck. who had
charge Of the press seats, announced
that the number of correspondents was

7. ALLEY
LOOKS GOOD
FOR RACE

CHICAGO. Oct. 6.-Tom Alley. known
throughout the United States as a
speed bug" is being touted around
Chicago as a probable winner in the big
October 18th race at the Speedway
Country Clubs track. Alley will GER
tainly finish well in the money. say his
friends. If he doesn't kill himself.
The Pan-American racer Alley drives
has been on wheels only since June 16,
and it is said he has never opened the
throttle wide since he got the machine.
preferring to wait until a little usage
had limbered up the chassis. The car has
shown UP well in several races this year,
but was too stiff" and green" really to
demonstrate its going qualities. At
Omaha. however. it qualified at l01 miles
an hour. h it can really do is still a
matter of conjecture.
It is certain, though. say the race
fans, that once he is satisfied his ma
chine can stand it. Alley will crowd on
all the speed there is in it.
Alley has figured in three serious &C
cidents on the track. Last Fourth of
July in the Omaha race he drove the
Pan-American around a steeply banked
turn at an u~nheard-of pace-and
crammed it clear off the track. The car
summerasaulted twice in mid air. and
threw Alley and his mechsnician thirty
feet into the mud. They were badly
wrenched and scratched. The car was
smashed beyond recognition.
In 1912 Alley was m-echanician for De
Palma at Milwaukee when their car was
driven off the track and whirled over
scattering the two men all over the
Landscape. Alley was in the hospital
two weeks after that. Two years later
he was badly burned about the face and
arms when his car caught fire at the
pits on the Sioux City race track.
Alley has gained his reputation as a
speed hend chiefly for his habit of slow
ing up for nothing. His performances
at hairpin turns, death curves and the
like have frightened thousands OF spec
tators almost into commissions.

AL J0LSON TO
BUY N FOR
HOME RUNS

II is going to be worth two $50 Liber-
" Bonds to every White Sox or Giant
player who knocks a home run during
the present series. a few days ago a
New York fan offered a bond for the
first homer.
Now Al Jolson. the comedian. has
notified Garry Hermann. chairman OF
the National Commission. that he Will
present a $50 bond of the second Liberty
Loan to every member of the White Sox,
or Giants. who makes a home run dur
ing the series. Jolson further made the
provision that should there be no home
run made in any game he will present it
to the player who makes a th~ree-base
hit. The offer covers the entire series.
both in Chicago and New York. and the
bond viii be presented through the Ma
tional Commission to the lucky players.
Mr.. Jolson closed the tour Of his COM
pany for two days in order to get 70

WHITE SOX COIN
FLOODS GOTHAM

NEW YORK, Oct. Son the eve Of
the worlds series the betting in New
York was at evens. with White Sox
non in preponderance. More than
SIS, 600 has been received by curb bet
ting commissioners from Chicago within
the last t~wenty-four hours to bet on the
Sox. Approximately $4,000 has been re-
ceived on the curb from Giant hackers
but most of II has been in small
amounts which have not nearly covered
all of the White Sox money in sight.
Several offers remain untaken. A
Tammany politician placed $4,000 with
Percy Guard to be put against $4,000
that the Giants will win the series An
other broker offered q bet Of $1,000 TO
$1,000 that the Giants will win the
series.
