CHAMPIONS LIMBER
Up SALARY BRAINS
BEFORE BIG GAMES

CHICAGO, Oct with the hour
Of the first worlds series battle close
at hand, the champion White Sox and
Giants limbered up salary arms, legs
and brains for the last time today.
Clarence Rowland and his first lieu
tenant, Kid Gleason. sent the Sox
through their final workout at Comis-
key park, after which the McGraw
men took the field.
The Giants spent several hours be-
hind closed gates at the home Of the
hostile Sox. for with the exception of
Heine Zimmerman, who has played
against the Rowland men in several
city series, Comisksy park was new to
the New Yorkers.
Following the workouts of the two
teams the playing field was mani
cured for the opening battle on the
morrow and Comiskey park was
closed as tight as a drum.
Looking for Tickets.
While the rival teams were going
through the motions in their last pre-
pairing exercises, thousands Of Chi
cagonans were besieging the White
Sox offices in an effort to secure tick
cts for tomorrow's game. But those
same thousands went away sadly,
hopelessly, for with the exception Of
the tickets which~Nill be put on sale
tomorrow morning, there is not a
ghost of a pasteboard to be had.
Cold, clear weather was on tap here
today with a promise of the same
variety for tomorrow, but the frosty
breezes OF Lake Michigan will have
to turn to a blast II the long line Of
fans who will keep an all-night vigil
at the box offices at Comiskey park
are to be driven away. On account OF
the great demand for tickets II is be-
1ieTed the waiting line at the ball
park will be longer than ever before.
As this is the home of the White
gox, sentiment regarding the outcome
of the big series was rampant for
the Sox today. Chicagoans cannot
see the men of McGraw with a field
glass in SO far as the final result OF
the series IL concerned, though many
reluctantly admit that they expect q
pet of at least six games.

Toward midday, however, several
things happened to stimulate the steel

shares in general. There was, in the
first place, a strong intimation in Wash

In the second place, Judge Gary an

President Farrell of the corporation,
