Results OF Hybrid Matinu.

Here Is strange set of facts, PROV
en- by three different investigators in
three different parts of the world at
three different times.
In matings of so-caled pure" races,
that Is TO say, Engllshman with Eng
fish woman, Frenchman with French
woman, German with German woman,
etc. lO4.54 more males are born than
females.
In hybrid matings, that is to say, of
different nationalities, there is n more
significant excess of male over female
births.
In matings of United States whites
The ratio is about the same as that of
European hybrids.
In matngs of United States coored
folks there is significant excess of
females over the ratio of British West
Indian colored who are relatively pure
bred.

AMERICAN LEAGUE TEAMS WON
 10 OUT OF 16 WORLD SERIES

New York, Oct 3-Champions in the American League have been vic torious in ten of the 16 world se- ries played since 1905, while the Nat 1onal League pennant winners have six series to their credit.
 Representatives of Greater New York in the National have been unsuccess- ful against American League oppo- nents six times. Not since 1905 when the Giants won the event from the Athletics has a New York National team won.
 The Giants, pennant winners in 1911 1912, 1913 could not win the series, al- though they were in a hair breadth of the worlds championship against the Red SoX in 1912. Brooklyn has tried and failed on two occasions.
 The Philadelphia Americans made the smallest numbers of runs in any series-three against the Giants in 1905. Once Detroit made but six against the Boston Nationals. Brooklyn scor- ed only eight run sagainst Cleveland last year.
 An interesting sidelight on world series of other years is concerned in the managers of the pennant winning teams, whose employment of baseball cunning in the various games has been one of the invisible yet most potent 1 factors in the great events. Connie Mack, the slender boss of the Philadelphia Athletics, can Iay claim to the greatest world series hon. ors. Three of Mack's teams have won the series since the National commis- sion took hold of baseball in 1905 Twice Mack found himself Ditted l against the willy, John McGraw. man ager of the New York Giants, and Mack won on both occasions. Another of baseball's greatest leaders, Frank Chance, of the Cubs, lost a series to the Mackmen.
 However, Chance was one of the
 select few who led their teams tc world series victory on two occasions In 1907 and 1908 his Cubs turned back Hughie Jennings Detroits. Chances i outfit was defeated in the series ot | 1906 by Manager Jones' Chicago White 1 Sox. The Cubs were woefuIly weak
 in that series, taking into considera | tion the fact they had set a new recor6 1 for games won in winning the Nationa 1 League pennant
 Bill Carrigan won two series ir i 1915 and 1916, with the Boston Rec 1 SoX.

BURNS AND sALLEE PLAYED
 IN PREVIOUS SERIES

New York, Oct 3.-Only two of the New York Giants of 1921 who are elegi- b!e to play in the worlds series have played with the team in previous post season inter-m9jor league championships. These are George Burns, one of the ca pablo outfelders of the McGraw organ ization and H. 7. (Slim) SaIlee, pitch CT.
 George Burns was purchased by the Giants in 1912 and though he played in a number of games was not seen in the worlds series. The following year, how ever, when the Giants were defeated in the post-season classic by the Athletics Burns played and performed well. In the 1917 series against the Cubs he felded perfectly and his batting average was .227.
 Ut'ca- New York, is Burns birthplace. He was born on November A. 1890. He played amateur ball for St Johnsville. New York, from 1905 to 1907 as third baseman and catcher He started pro- fessionally with the Utica club of the New York State League pla wing as catcher and later in the outfield, from 1908 to 1911. After joining the Giants in 1912 his playing became more and more proficient. He throws and bats right-handed.
 Harry Salee was born in HigginSpOrt, O.. Feb. 3, 1885. He first played profess sionaIly for the Birmingham, Ala, club of the Southern League in 1905 and in 1906 came to the New York Americans. He played with the Williamsport, Pa. club of the Fri State League in 1907 and was drafted by the St. Louis Ma tionals in 1908. He remained with the Cardinals until 1916 when he was pro- cured by the Giants. He got the name Slim because of his height and weight Slim is six feet three inches in height and weighs only 160 pounds. He is a left-hander and bats right-handed. Sallee had a great year with the Gf- ants in 1917. He won IS games and lost only seven. He pitched and lost two games in the worlds series that year In midseason 1918 Sallee decided to quit | the game. During the winter he was per suaded to play again and was obtained by the Cincinnati team. He had another good pitching year, helping the Reds tc
 win the pennant. He played in the l series against the White Sox. He came back to the Giants last year by the waiver route and has worked hardly al l all this season. It is doubtful of he vii l pitch in the coming series.

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET

Chicago, Oct 3.-Bullish views regard ing the domestic visible supply fieures and about the amount or wheat on ocean pas- sage led to sudden upturn today in the price of wheat. The market closed nerv- ous at 1-2 to 1 cent net higher with De- cember 1.1S 1-4 to 1.1S 1-2 and May 1.23 1-4 to 1.23 1-2. Corn gained 3-S to 5-4 a 7-S and oats 1-4 to 3-8. In pro- visions the outcome was unchanged to F cents higher.
 In the beginning the wheat market showed considerable depression with bears putting stress on the apparent absence of any new export business and on pre- dictions of a liberal enlargement of tbe United States visible supply Later, how ever the market developed notable strength, largely as q result of correct anticipation that the increase expected in the visible supply would be much small CT than was the case week ago. On the other hand. profit taking sales in the last half hour wiped out good part of the days advance.
 Surprise over a shrinkage in the vis- ble supply of corn helped to rally the corn market. Earlier. December corn had sold at the lowest pice yet this season. Oats merely reflected the changes in wheat and corn.
 Provisions averaged higher with hogs an das result of some decrease in the stock of lard

Deal. \. J., Oct. 3-(By the A. P)- Miss Glenna Collett. eighteen year old Providence star, and Mrs. Latham Hall of Mid-Surrey, England, were tied for the qualifying medal at the opening of the annual tournament for the wo- mans golf championship of the United States at the Hollywood Golf Club to- day. They played the eighteen holes in s5 each.
 Next in the standing was Miss Cecil Leitch, British, French and Canadian champion, with S7. Miss Alexa Stirl- Ing, defending United States champion had an s9. Five of the eight foreign entrants failed to qualify. They are Miss Doris Chambers of England, who withdrew after playing round in ap- proximately 1O9 and all the Canadian entrants Misses Sybil and Hazel Ken nedy, Montreal, sisters, had 100 and 101, respectively. Miss Villa Gage of Toronto had 110. Miss Kate Robert son of Montreal did not appear at the tournament. Of a total of 1S3 entrants 1e4 started in the qualifying round, which, beginning with intermittent light showers in the morning, was played in a heavy rain in the afternoon, Miss Cecil Leitch, who had been ex- pected to win the qualifying round, had the advantage of moderately dry turf except for her last few holes when the heavy rain began. Her drives were unsurpassed by any competitor but in steadiness and approaching there were many better.
 Mrs. sLathem Hall, in tieing for the qualifying medal, played the steadiest golf of any one, having only one bad hole. a seven. She played the last nine holes in II, the best of any competitor Miss Stirling, after an cratic trip to the turn. played home in two under lives. Miss Collett had the best trip to the turn, q 41. Her 200 yard drive over trees to the fifth hole was a fea- ture.
 The greatest applause for a shot came when IA year old Maureen Or cutt who plays from the White Beech- es Golf and Country Club of Haworth, \. J., made 21O yard drive from the first tee. The rain was at it's suit was 119. Mrs. Caleb Fox of Phil adelphia, white haired and 62, was bet ter than scores of competitors young enough 10 be her daughters. She was put in 42. and she played in heavy rain all the way.

ing the respective merits of the vari- ous players. Whether the speed and the resourcefulness of the Giants can overcome the punching power of the Yankees is one of the points at is sue. Yankees rooters expect big things of Babe" Ruth, home run king.
 Meanwhile the offices of the oppos- ing clubs were making final prepara- tions for the post season classic. At the Giants headquarters all the tic kets had been reserved, it was an- nounced. and there talk centred about McGraws pitching selection for the opening game.
 "Toney is his best bet" declared an old time played. Fred will make Ruth and Meusel and the rest of that Yan- kee slugging crowd pop 'em up to the infield. McGraw wants to take that first game and Toney is the boy to dc it.
 Other Giant followers thought Mo- GraW might start Artie Nehf, the young left handler, and still others ia Vored Philip Douglas. McGraw said nothing. Neither did Huggie Jennings nor Cozey Dolan, the two coaches.
 Yankee headquarters was filled with baseball players and last minute tic ket seekers. Miller I{uggins, manager went into secluSion leaving word that he wanted to give his nerves a res | and do some figuring on the dope. Il is generally agreed that Higgins vii start Carl Mays, the submarine hurler but Bob Shawkey has been going sl good in the last few games he ha! pitched that Huggins may spring hin as surprise.
 Fans from all parts of the countr! are pouring into the city and hote 1 managers are counting on filling thei l accommodations. The seating capacit, 1 of the Polo Grounds is given as $500 ] but ambitious ushers always have beel | able to find seats in the aisles and ol the rails for at least 5000 and there i standing room for many more. The record attendance at a series 1 236,O00, undoubtedly will be broken i l the series goes to six or more games

 Those who failed to qualify includ- ed two former champions-Mrs. H Arnold Jackson of Greenwich, Conn. and Mrs. Charles E. Stout, of New York each of whom had 102.

They are in different halves of the draw. The system was used primarily to prevent an early meeting between the cham pions, such as happened in the Brit ish championship tournament wher they played in the first round.

 Miss Collett vs. Miss Leitch; Miss Fem vs. Miss Caverly; Miss Rosen. | thai vs. Mrs. Rossin; Mrs. Smith vs l Miss Klotz; Miss Leitch vs. Mrs Ham mer; Mrs. Lettz vs. Mrs. Blumenthali
