GIANTS WIN FIRST GAME
National Pennunt Winners Score Against Tanks
 M Eighth Inning

NEW YORK, Oct f. - The Giant won the first game of the World 5 Series against the Tanks today by a score of to 3.
 The pennant winners ofthe National League made rally in the eighth in ming by concentrating upon savage batting attack against the Yankees star pitcher, Joe Bush, knocking him from the box and capturing the first game. Thirty-eight thousand people witnessed what looked like a Yankee victory, when the Giants came uneX- pectedly from behind with four con secutive smashing hits and long sac rfice fly good for four runs.
 NEW YORK, Oct 4.-Only thirty persons had lined up outside the gates at the Polo Grounds at midnight last night in anticipation of the opening for the World Series games today. Former years have witnessed a consi l. erable crowd at this hour standing in a queue at the gates. Nevertheless, capacity crowd was expected to be On hand for the opening game. First position in the line was held by Der nard Berrgran, of Brooklyn, who in memory of past rushes, was on hand at four o'clock yesterday afternoon. Leslie Carpenter, an office boy, stood second. Near the head of the line a middle-aged negro woman took her stand and held it, an enthusiastic rooter for the Tanks, in whose victory she made a bet of $50 Most of the early arrivals brought camp stools and chairs with them, while some attempt ed to get a bit of a nights sleep by stretching out on newspapers. The usual arguments broke out among champions of the two teams. Some body made the remark that the Tank infield was the greatest in the history of baseball, with Dugan, Ward, Scott and Pipp to play star roles. Others declared that McGraw's infield could stop anything that the Tanks started Speculating on the probabilities in home runs, some opined that Babe Ruth would hit three during the series and they granted at least one each to Rob Meusel, Witt, Pipp, Irish Meusel Kelly, Snyder and Stengal. Though the Tanks still rank as favorites, the re, verse decision of year ago when the Giants won to 8, puts the odds some what against them. Offers of eight 10 five against the Tanks, which were steadily dropping week ago. have been replaced by bets of six to five by Tank supporters. There is, however very little heavy betting.

.DR. MACSP0RRAN ON FOUR GREAT KINGS OF.
 THE WESTERN WORLD.

"The Kings of the wect." was the topic for Dr. MacSporran's Christmas sermon at the First Presbyterian church Sunday morning.
 "The four great kings of the west ern world" he stated, 'are begin ming to wake and to see that they, too, like the wise men of the nativity, must follow the Star in the East. These mighty ones, so wise, resourceful, powerful, and efficient today are: Mars, the war spirit, Mammon. the god of Big Business; Politics; and younger but coming king, Modern Science"
 Tracing the westward drift of mankind through the ages. pr. Mac Sporran spoke of the star that has ever lured them westward. And do the theories of population and geography wholly explain this? Or is it the hand of God? The Star, or the prospect of food and shelter? From Abraham. seeking the city that hath foundations, on down through the Pilgrims and the Puritans, it was the heavenly vision: God has been in all this westward surge, separating and sitting His peoples. Into the western frontiers have come the ad- venturers. the workers and fighters ana creators, uHtli EdSl IS EaSt, anu West is West And the great gulf between. The east has become static. changeless, unambitious, mystical, quiet, fatalistic; with it's joys in in- ward things and with capacity for religion far greater than the rest less west.
 The west has been dynamic. ex- pansive practical. hungering for the new, with little gift or taste for meditation and religion. The result of all this Is that the east and the west distrust and dislike each other And now. on Christmas Day. this gulf must be bridged and closed if the Kingdom of the Prince of Peace Is to come.
 "The kings of the east mentioned in the text knew where to stop, knew when they had gone far enough Though out of the east they were no longer customers, but they were elevated to that high sphere where tags and badges and flags and nat ural barriers mean nothing. and they became sons of the King. members

of the universal empire. It was thus in the east that the kings saw, but the people remained behind. But in the west, the people see the Star and follow, while the kings lag far behind And we shall make small progress toward peace and salvation until they follow, too. For theirs Is the influence. True, they are see- ing dimly. at last, the Star: but they are not wise enough yet to go back and lay their gifts at the feet. of a child. They have so very far to go and there is not time this year. These kings, War, Mammon, Politics and Science. seem sometimes to have learned so little. But we shall yet some day, see them following the Star until dynamic West and static East meet at the center of the world, where there Is born unto us a King who is Christ the Lord.'"

NEW BOND ISSUE
HURTS THE LIST
By GEORGE r. HUGHES.
ariaI Leased Wire to The Star.

Ry Special Leased Wire to The Star.
NEW YORK. October 10.-Weak-
ness in rails and industrials of the
very highest grade was again the
feature of the bond market today.
Quotations showed only fractional
losses, but there was steady and per-

tral refunding and improvement 5s
and Canadian Northern 6l2s were
other instances. In many cases prices
improved later. but the general trend
was unmistakable.
For all Of this there was only the
same explanation advanced Monday.
The terms of the new government
AZ per cent loan are SO favorable
that other securities, admittedly the
obligations of the strongest corpora
tions. were being sold to provide
funds for the purchase of the new
liberty bonds.
Other Factors.
Other factors. of course, may be in
part responsible, but the commonly
accepted theory was that prices of
investment securities must be read
justed to meet the yield offered by
the Treasury Department.
The more the terms of the new Of
feripg were studied the more ad-
vantageous they appeared from the
standpoint of the investor.
Subscriptions for the new issue con-
tinued to pour in. 1t was estimated
that the total might exceed $2.OOO.-
600 600 against the $500,000,000 offer
The older liberty issues were all
steady today. All the issues sold
around par or slightly below with
premium for the new issue still bid
in the outside market. This. of
course, is on the theory that there
will not be enough bonds to meet the
demand for subscribers at par.
Action i'm Foreign Bonds.
Foreign bonds were irregular. Bel
eian IS sold lower. perhaps in SYM
pathy with the weakness in Belgian
exchange. City of Copenhagen 5ks
also declined slightly. while the
French issues were comparatively
firm. Dutch East Indies 6s both the
1947 and 1862 maturity. were very
active and generally higher.
The fractions were active and
strong in the early trading. Utility
bonds generally were firm. Also the
second grade and speculative railroad
bonds were inclined to be firm. 1t is
interesting to note that Mondays 8
bond market was the broadest on rec
ord. a total of 481 separate issues be-
ing dealt in. This Is ten more than
the highest previous number.
