So evenly are the Giants and the
Yankees matched-in the opinion of
grandstand strategists-that an over
whelming advantage will rest with
the initial break.
Contrary to most world series, the
fans look for slugsing matches
rather than pitchers battles. In the
average series the pitchers are
usually working far above their sea-
sons form. But in the present
struggle the cash customers are con-
fident the bat would be mightier
than the curve.
Should the fans dope" prove
true, surface indications would ap-
pear to favor the Yanks as they
have bludgeoned their way to the
American League title by sheer
clubbing power. particularly as
practiced by "Murderers' Row"

The batting array OF the two clubs
will be the same that finished the
hard last mile on both pennant
races.
Higgins denied this morning the
tale that Frank Baker the veteran
series campaigner, would replace
McNally at third base. Baker has
been on the bench with bad legs
since the Yanks started their last
drive for the pennant. McNally has
been playing such a beautiful game
that his manager refuses to break
up the combination.
Earl Smith will probably catch for
the Giants. He is a very effective
hitter IL he does not carry excessive
baggage upstairs.
Wall schang, the sparse-locked
veteran Of a flock Of worlds series,
is sure to do most Of the catching
for the Yanks.
All OF the betting and all OF the
talk seems centered around babe
Ruth. Will Babe hit the Giant
pitchers, and will McGraw let him
hit are the absorbing questions.
1T all depends on the situation, "
McGraw said today. when asked

Bob Meusel. the big Californian in

casualty. He has a cold that will not
prevent his playing.

Hurdle Obstacles to

FINANCE is CRUX
OF THE PLAN
BY NORRIS QUINN.

wASHINGTON.-Proposed con-
solidation Of 1873 principal railways
into 10 big competing systems. as
announced by the Interstate Com
merce Commission, has a long, long
trail to wander before it becomes a
reality. It cannot become effective
within a year. at least.
First. the commission must send
copies to governors of all States
and to the railways.
Then, at a time not yet set, a
hearing must be held when any OBJ
jections by State authorities or rail-
ways may be filed. While every
effort has been made to make the
present plan objectionproof. it's
probable that It will emerge from
the hearing badly cut up and inter-
lined.
When the last objection has been
heard and disposed Of, the mergers
can go ahead. Every line affected
must file application to merge its
holdings and the commission must
o. X. the application.
Then the commission will have to
face the tough problem of valua-
ton and financing. on which the
whole success of the plan depends
The commission must determine
the value of every line to be merged.
Bonds Of the corporation that be-
comes the owner of the merged
properties must at par not exceed
the total value of the properties
consolidated.
With valuation fixing and financ-
ing out of the way, the actual nrerg-
ing may proceed.
The present plan. the commission
announces, ss based on the most
comprehensive survey of American
commercial geography in its rela-
ton to transportation ever made.
Here are the 10 big systems and
the number Of lines they will abb
sorb under the present plan:
1. New York Central, 10
2. Pennsylvania, %.
