TICKETS COME HIGH FUR OPENING CAME
 AT ''CH|" TR|SP. M.

CHICAGO, Oct. With 1S,000 re- served and box seats sold, the sale of 16,500 pavilion and bleacher seats for the local opening tomorrow of the world series play when the Reds and White Sox come from Cincinnati, will start at S:30 o'clock tomorrow morn- ing. The reserved seats were sold out several days ago and only chances for those vantage points are tickets in the hands of scalpers who are demanding from $50 to S100.
 The scalpers are closely watched by the internal revenue department for the collection of the 50 per cent ex- cess profit tax. Revenue men arrested a woman who sought to sell six worli series tickets today but released her when they learned the sale had not actually taken place.
 Nearly 100 complaints from fans who said they had failed to obtain ticket although scalpers were offering the pasteboards, have been received a; corporation counseTs office today an it was said an investigation would b. made.
 Secretary Harry Grabiner at White Sox park said that the fact that scalp CTS were demanding fabulous price. was good evidence that few tickets had fallen into their hands.
 Most of the scalpers professed to b. able to provide plenty of tickets. Al hotel ticket brokerage office s1O0 was demanded for a first class seat Another wanted from S75 to $90 for reserved seats, although a few offered to part with a few tickets at $50.

WILD COWS DISAPPEARING

(From the New York Post)
 The Piney woods COW, long a churn of the razorback hog, is fading from tn Georgia landscape. It is a poignant thought. She is one of the last links that binds Georgia to the past. Thou sands of her roamed over the great plantations that would now be con demned as undemocratic. She was usually red and white-a "pidedp COW inclined to have a poor figure, hump backed and somewhat knockkneed, and her eyes were closely situated, in the manner which psychologists shake their heads over, because it indicates criminal bent. But upon the piney woods COW Georgia in the old days de- pended entirely for milk and butter. Maj planters had hundreds of them, but they all ran wild, and one of the spring sports was to round them up and mark them. If choice specimen should be captured she was hard to feed. being unaccustomed to civilized fodder, for piney woods cows eat gras in summer and souse their heads ug to the eyes in ponds in the winter, look ing for water grass and moss. They always have forlorn air. Many Of them still dwell on the islands of banks mill pond. which covers thousands of acres and butchers of Valdosta hunt them with horses and dogs.

Old scores will be settled in the ring of the Phoenix Athletic club tonight when Al McManus of Tucson and Ralph DeMott of Douglas go 10 rounds at 1S5 pounds in the main event of q four card program.
 DeMott and McManus have long since been rivals for the honors in the southern section of Arizona Both men are of wide experience in the boxing game, McManus having recently es- abolished his home in Tucson after spending several years in California where he was one of the biggest drawing cards on the coast. Until few months ago, McManus was ire quently featured in final events at the Vernon Athletic clubs arena.
 While in Arizona. he has enjoyed good success, losing only one of nearly a dozen engagements and that to Eddie shannon, one of the best boys of his weight in the far west. bar none. And in that bout, McManus came back strong in the last three rounds earn the decisions in the eighth, ninth and tenth by good margins.
 The soldier battler is also a veteran ring performer when it comes to ex perience and his handling of Kid Palmer in the latter's bout with Johnny Celmers last Friday night was largely responsible for the Kids victory over the Toledo boy. All of which goes to show that DeMott is a shrewd, if not clever. glove artist.
 His bout with Lefty Lewis here about a month ago, won him hundreds of friends in this city. his aggressive and ready style proving popular with the fans.
 DeMotts style is much the same os Young Browns, although he packs :t much harder blow in either hand. He is also somewhat heavier than the Mexican, weighing about 133 pounds in the best condition.
 The men will weigh in at 2 o'clock this afternoon. They have agreed to do 135 pounds at this hour. DeMott is probably trifle heavier than Me Manus. although the difference is not likely to be more than a pound or a pound and a half at the most when they climb through the ropes at about 10 o'clock tonight.
 In the semi-finaI event at six rounds, Battling LaSalle and Young Pena will meet for a second time. They weigh 140 pounds Tn the first meeting between the pair a cople of Weehs dSO' iouils TeHd was IeluTneu the winner when the referee stopped the bout because of the poor physical condition of LaSalle. This bout was nearly four rounds old at that stage and proved one of the best prelimin- aries staged by the r. A. c. in recent weeks.
 Young Dutch and Lanky Lean will clash in a four-round opening event that is guaranteed to make a hit with the fans. A second event at four rounds will bring together Jerry Bel and Sailor Burns at 122 pounds.

THE MODERN WAY

Ben Franklin was thrifty man,
To this you'll all agree:
Instead of s. andering what he got.
He used ffrugality.

Tot alone did lie succeed
lining his ambition.
eth The way. to help him on,
c stood his saving wife.
Eed twas this partnership of thrift
Gave them happy life.
Some folks attribute wealth to luck.
'Tis fortunes known foundation,
His luck to find thrifty mate
Was Ben's Interpretation.

Their savings over four per cent,
How eagerly for savings stamps
Their money they'd have spent!
