WEATHER PROSPECT
FOR OPENER GOOD
ScaIpers Unable to Meet De-
mand for Seats for Chicago
World Series Games.

CHICAGO. October THE reserve ed
White Sox Park having been distribut-
cd among the lucky applicants, hun
dreds Of base ball fans planned to stand
IN line tonight in order to have advan-
tageous positions when the office opens
al the park for the sale of unreserved
seats tomorrow
The weather prediction for the open
ing game tomorrow calls for fair
weather with a slight drop in tempera-
ture. This, followers of the game say,
will not work any hardship on either
team as both squads are in the pink of
condition and will not feel any slight
change in weather.
Scalpers who had promised to have
plenty Of tickets for the opening game
We're busy today making deliveries to 4
few customers and returning money to
others. Their supply was said TO be far
less than the demand.
At the first appearance of the tickets
at the offices of the brokers $50 was
asked for one ticket, good for the three
games. for which SIS was charged at
the park. As the supply of tickets i'm
their hands became exhausted the
scalpers began to talk of a raise in
price and it was predicted today that
the price might be double the amount
first asked before the game is called to-
morrow afternoon.
Grandstand reservations, selling at
the park for $50. were not to be had
from the scalpers, although one broker
offered to deliver tickets of this class
Saturday noon AT 81 for the three
games.

SHAW WINS BONUS
BY LANDING FINAL
Nationals Take Last Game of
Season From Red Sox.
Score 5 to q.

Special Dispatch to The Star
BOSTON, October st is all over
now but the shouting. 1t is all over
and James Aloysius Shaw feels par
ticularly pleased. Jim is pleased
principally because he was hurting in
the final Washington game of the sea-
son against the red -stockinged Bos-
tonians. which game was won by
Washington and by Jim.
1t seems that Doc Ayers was not the
only senatorial mound artist who was
a bit shy Of wins necessary to make
good bonus promised at the end of
the season. Shaw was in the same
boat with Doc, but not in SO deep. for
all he had to do was win one more
game. while Doc had two more to get.
Ayers got his chance the other day
and partly came through He was
credited with winning the first game
of Tuesdays double header and also
was given an opportunity to win the
second. but did not last through. Then
with both he and Shaw in the same
pickle it was only fair that Jim should
have been given the chance to try his
hand at pulling through the bonus
gate successfully.
