Eight Games In 1919.

NEW YORK. Oct. "a new mark
for worlds series receipts was reached
yesterday. when the gate receipts for
the seventh game of the 1871 struggle
sent the total for the current series
up to SS04,7s1. This amount is $s2 1857
In excess Of the previous record, estab-
lished In 1919. when eight games be-
tween the Cincinnati Reds and the Chi
cago White Sox drew q total OF $722c
414. The series between the Cleveland
Indians and the Brooklyn Robins last
year drew $664.800, which ranked AZ
the second highest for any series up
to III rrr. W other SGT of games In
the past touched the half milliol
mark.
The growth Of the world series Is re-
rected In comparison Of the figures
of the current series and the games
between the Giants and Mackmen In
1905, when the first series was played
under the supervision OF the old Ma.

A new attendance record for world
series will be reached today. SO far
244,586 fans have paid to see Giants
and Yankees perform. and this is only
1874 below the record figure Of 1912,
when eight games between the Red
Sox and Mackmen attracted 25l.901
fans. The Cincinnati Chicago series OF
1919 drew 236,s28 fans for eight
games, and this mark is almost 5000
below the figure reached In seven
games between Giants and Yanks.

DESTROY THE CANS

While cleaning up-and it is the finest thing
do for this communicates broaden the conception
of the plan to make it just effective as possible
We understand that each year thousands and thousands
of tin dumped into of the cys old gravel
pits in the vicinity of the Palmer Orphanage.
Many of these will necessarily be left in position
to hold water, and will make breeding places for mosqu
toes this summer.
Let's either destroy the cans and other rubbish of this
nature haul them far away that the community won't
be menaced by the millions of mosquitoes that will

This is matter that may have escaped the attention Of
the authorities, and merely suggest it that if
are being dumped menacngy the situation may be
remedied in time.

while fuel remains higher than normal,
