GOOD SEAT SALE
FOR BOSTON GAMES

Boston. Sept. A small group Of
the faithful cheered the last ditch
rally of the Red Sox in the second
today, as the vain effort of the Amer
lean league leaders to pull down the
Cubs was posted in newspaper row.
AS compared with the crowds that
blocked the street from curb to curb
il previous post season contests, the
knots of fans watching the score
boards we're woefully small and
apathetic. But the lack of enthusi-
asm in the street is not the proper
measure of the real degree of inter-
est in the series which exists in Bos-
ton and New England this year.
AT the headquarters of the Amer
lean League team it was announced
tonight that every one of the 1895 box
seats for the games to open in Bos-
ton Monday had been sold. The re-
naming grand stand seats will be
placed on sale at the box office on
Jersey street at nine o'clock tomor-
row morning. Four thousand appli-
cants were notified today that their
orders had been field and further APP
p,ications received tonight and on the
first mail tomorrow will be ac-
knowledged. After that. it was an
nounced at the club offices. no at
tempt would be made to attend to
applications by the letter as there
would be no time to mail notifica-
tions. Secretary Larry Grayer Of the
club said tonight that he felt sure
Boston would turn out a larger
crowd for Mondays opening game
here than Chicago's 1920 for the first
contest in the Windy City.

HENDRIX AND MAYS
PROBABLE PITCHERS

Chicago, Sept. 6.-Mays probably
will be selected to face the Cubs in
the third game of the worlds series
tomorrow, according to manager
Barrow of the Red Sox tonight. TO
days game was tough one to lose,
especially as we nearly broke it up in
the ninth inning, MIR. Barrows said.
The Cubs had the better of the
break, 1 think, and piled up a lead
in the second inning too great for us
to overcome. l do not mean to take
credit away from Tyler, who pitched
great ball and deserved to win"
THE task of the Cubs is now easier,
said Manager Mitchell of the Chicago
club. The cubs certainly recovered
their batting eye. and they are con-
f1dent Of retaining it. Tyler pitched
wonderful game. l expect to send
Hendrix against the Red Sox tomor-
row.
